“I highly recommend Chelsey for pet care. Her care made our pets' time away from us joyful and comforting and gave us true peace of mind. Chelsey went above and beyond, and we're so thankful for her dedication to our pets' well-being.”
“Kaylee is great, you can tell she loves the dogs she visits! It's so nice to have someone you trust visit your pup while your away. We'll definitely be using her again in the future”
“Alyssa took great care of our cats, Misty & Fae over the Labor Day weekend. Misty requires prescription wet food and 2 medications (opened capsule & measured liquid) added to her food. Alyssa came for a meet & greet visit during the week before the weekend so she could meet the girls, see their environment & understand their food schedule & medication dosing schedule for Misty. She came for morning & evening feedings & sent us pictures from each visit. We knew they were in good hands while we were away. We will definitely call on her again! We highly recommend Alyssa!! Misty ? & Fae ? do too!”
About: Hi, I’m Olivia! I’ve loved animals since I was a child and have spent years caring for both my own dogs and the pets of family and friends. I began my pet care career as a groomer, where I gained experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether your dog needs someone gentle and patient or an energetic companion for long walks, runs, and playtime, I’m here to help. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, including those with health conditions such as seizures, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. My yard is equipped with 2 acres with creeks and waterfalls running through, I will make sure to keep your pup is fulfilled. I’ve also trained my own dogs in basic obedience, including commands like sit, stay, and heel, and I’m happy to reinforce your dog’s training during our time together. Your pet will be treated like family while they’re in my care. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy until you’re back home! I’m currently unemployed so I will have all the time in the world to play with your babies. Play time is full time around here! I have lots of toys and fun activities to keep your dog happy and engaged. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like family and strive to provide a fun, caring, and stress free experience.
About: I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible pet sitter and dog walker who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, feeding, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and become someone you can trust to care for them! I’m currently a part-time cleaner so I have plenty of time and flexibility in my weekly schedule to accommodate your pet's needs. I’m also available most weekends. I care for animals as if they were part of my own family. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and meals according to their normal routine. I also take the time to learn each pet’s individual personality, habits, and needs so I can give them personalized care.
About: As a college student studying Zoology, animals and their care are more than a side hustle or a hobby: they’re my world. Apart from my academic coursework in animal care and welfare, I have more than eight years of personal care and volunteer experience with numerous animals, including but not limited to: cats, dogs, horses, rats and mice, hamsters, snakes, various types of lizards and amphibians, goats, chickens, sheep, cattle, and even invertebrates such as tarantulas and scorpions. Rest assured, I’ll never discriminate against your furry pal! I have experience giving oral medication, both liquid and pill, as well as insulin injections and subcutaneous fluids. I also have experience caring for elderly animals — like my 18 year old cat, Maya! I can provide feeding, brushing, hoof care, walking, exercise, medication, play time, turning out, litterbox cleaning and much more! I have a driver’s license and my own transportation, and my hours and pay are flexible. I am willing to drive 60-90 minutes depending on needs. As mentioned prior, I have extensive prior experience volunteering at various shelters, vets and farms assisting with animal care, as well as my own personal experience caring for a diverse array of pets. I am happy to gather recommendations from organizations I work with. While caring for your pet or pets, I will regularly keep in contact with you and update you with both text and photos (if desired), along with keeping a dedicated spreadsheet of feeding/watering/grooming times and overall health to guarantee your peace of mind. I am capable of providing pet care across a flexible schedule. I can provide early care from 6-9 AM in the morning and any time after 4:20 PM on weekdays, as well as 24 hour care on weekends and overnight stays if needed. I am able to care for pets in a wide variety of ways thanks to expensive experience. Walking, feeding, litter-box cleaning, playtime, as well as insulin/subcutaneous fluid injections are all possible. I can also administer medication orally. Daily checkups as well as overnight stays are both possible.
“Simply great! Great pictures, great walks, great communication and pictures. Bridget loves them. Have used numerous times and every time the service is excellent.”
“Louis did a thorough job taking care of my poultry flock while we were away for 2 days, especially considering the extreme cold temperatures. We are grateful for the help. Thanks Louis!”
About: I grew up with dogs, have lived with cats. Most comfortable with dogs and cats but have some experience with birds and lizards as well. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty open. I'm available anytime any day as long as it does t conflict with my son's baseball schedule I love animals so I will treat your pet like my own. I will provide attention, affection and any other basic services you may require
“Alexis was great! She came by for a "meet and greet" beforehand and was very friendly. Dropped in to care for our cat. She even sent pictures. We relaxed on our vacation knowing he was in good hands. We will use her next time!”
About: I’ve always owned lots of pets. Currently own 4 dogs. I love animals of all kinds. I work full time and am only available afternoon/evenings and weekends. Looking for evening and weekend dog walking or dog sitting. I work full time during the day depending on location I could possibly do drop ins during the day. I do not do care in my home due to my own dogs. I do everything I can to make your pets as comfortable as possible while in my care.
About: I have had cats and a dog that I made sure were well taken care of. I love taking care of animals whether mine or other people's. I work in the mornings until 12pm and have off in the afternoon, so I will have time in the afternoon and evenings to take care of other people's animals I have several leashes to use to walk dogs and I have gates and crates that I can block of certain areas of the house to make sure they are safe.
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs but have a solid 5 years of independent experience (without family) caring for my current long haired cat, Darcy! I currently live with five cats and have past experience with dogs as well! I am very patient and quick at understanding the needs of each pet. Their comfort is most important to me! I have just recently been offered a part time job as a barista! So, I will have plenty of free time to fill! I do not work Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so I’d have the full day to be filled! As for the other days of the week I will still have much free time, but I’d have to work around my work schedule no problem! Plus additional days off depending on my schedule. I know the importance of respect, accountability, and responsibility when being a guest in any persons home, so caring for a clients pet in their home would be no different! I am happy to do what is requested of me and not overstepping boundaries!
About: I’ve been so lucky to have so many pets throughout my life — dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, a full on aquarium. I’ve always been the go-to for pet sitting, whether it was through nannying, house-sitting, or being the friend who actually likes doing it. Right now I’ve got two dogs with wildly different personalities, and I live in Baltimore and own land in Tennessee where I’m slowly building my dream of a small farm, where soon I'll have grass puppies and honky donkeys. You probably have already seen me on the street asking CAN I PET YOUR DOG? I currently have very open availability! I feel like visiting the pets for a short visit a couple of times a day makes me sad, especially if they are missing their parents, they deserve stimulation so I try my best to follow an exciting version of your routine and leave them energetically satisfied. Due to my dogs and their high energy and vast personalities, I'm not currently boarding pets, but lead the way of your home, and Ill follow.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Shrewsbury
Kaylee was absolutely wonderful with my two cats! From the moment we met I knew they were in great hands. Kaylee regularly sent photos and updates while I was away. She followed all details and instructions and went the extra step to clean up any accidents or litter my girls left behind! I came home to two happy and relaxed cats (that clearly missed her). I couldn’t ask for a better sitter and will definitely be booking again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone with beloved pets she treats them like her own!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Shrewsbury on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
