About: I grew up with dogs, cats and horses. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. I work full time during the week, but can be available for drop-ins in the mornings/evenings before and after work upon request. I am also available some Thursday mornings before 2pm for walks or longer check-ins. I am most available for those who enjoy going out on Friday nights or on the weekends! I’m available after 2pm on Friday's and all day Saturday & Sunday. I am very active and enjoy going for long walks and runs, but I also love to cuddle up and snooze. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly small dog that loves to play and run around. I have an indoor porch where my animals and yours can stay separate if need be. I am able to comfortably crate your dog if needed.
“Excellent communication and care for my cat. Gave him time and love and fed him well. Followed care instructions fully and provided photos and video to give peace of mind while I was traveling.”
“Michelle is the best! I have reviewed before but as usual Michelle is caring, reliable and professional at the same time. I always check for her first when I need to leave my cat at home due to travel!”
“Colin always goes above and beyond when it comes to looking after the house! Most importantly, though, the cats love him, which is not a given with them - they tend to be shy around new people. I would definitely recommend Colin, and my husband and I plan to rebook in the future!”
“Leah was absolutely wonderful. Took great care of my cat while I was away. Played with her and sent me pictures as well. Highly recommend. The whole process couldn’t have gone any smoother!”
About: I have 28 years of experience taking care of pets and many more taking care of my own family pets. My first job at 13 was at a kennel. I can administer all types of medications, I've had sick and elderly pets that needed shots, fluids and pills. I also was a wildlife rehabilitator and have experience with bottle feeding and wound care. I am skilled with senior pets, exotics and livestock. I live in Lunenburg MA with my husband surrounded by a variety of different pets from dogs and cats to reptiles to parrots to livestock. I am comfortable around any size pet and with aggressive moody pets. I'm currently working full time Monday -Friday but am available weekends all day and mornings/ afternoons during the week for drop ins. I cannot do overnight stays or boarding. I will do whatever to mimic how you care for your own pets in your home. Any schedule or routine you do I will follow. I will allow dogs outside at your own home off leash, but if you would like walks/ hiking off your property dogs must be leashed for their safety.
About: I am a local dog walker and pet sitter. It’s my passion to care for animals and I have over 11 years of experience. Caring for your loved ones comes naturally for me! I provide routine day time pet care throughout the week! If you would like to be added to my route- please reach out! I have two openings. I also provide pet sitting care outside of that. I am reliable, pay attention to detail, and have a lot of experience. Animal care comes naturally to me, especially in your home. It’s very important to me that your fur family member/s has top notch care while you are away from them.

I am available daily to drop in while you are away or working for walks, playing fetch or feeding/medicine. Whatever your fur baby needs :)
About: I just left my job after many many years. I worked in the addiction recovery sector. I have found myself still having so much in my heart to give I am retired and home so while I am babysitting your fur baby I will be sure to schedule things remotely. That way he or she will get the attention they need while you are away I take dogs on a walk regularly on a leash. Also, there is lots and lots of love to go around here for your fur baby while yo are away.
“Elizabeth did a great job with our pets. Our one cat requires 3 meds daily for a heart condition. She administered the meds and also alerted us of an issue with the volume left in one bottle which led to a shipping issue with the vendor. We were able to resolve it immediately, so he wasn't without his one med for too long. She took care of the geckos and their crazy diets with ease. We definitely trusted and will continue to trust Elizabeth with our animal's care. She did amazing!”
About: Hi! I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with experience taking care of both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for pets in the past, so I understand how important it is to provide them with love, patience, attention, and a safe environment. I’m also a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat, which has given me years of experience understanding a cat’s needs, personality, and daily routine. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, providing companionship, or giving extra cuddles, I enjoy making pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to make sure your furry family member receives the best possible care. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my priority. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I have experience caring for my family’s dog and my friends’ pets, along with being a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat. I’m familiar with daily feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾❤️ I prefer pet sitting in your home because I believe pets feel most comfortable and secure in their own familiar environment. Staying in their own home allows them to maintain their routines and feel less stressed while you’re away. I respect each pet’s boundaries, pay attention to their body language, and let them approach me at their own pace. I believe animals deserve the same kindness, patience, and respect as humans. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and loved, just as I would want someone to care for my own 6-year-old cat. 🐾❤️
About: ive had a few different dogs growing up, i love animals. this will be something different for me but i’m looking forward to it! i’m just trying to make a little extra money. I work full-time as an infant teacher, so I have a consistent weekday schedule and plenty of free time in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends to care for pets! I’m home most evenings, and I love spending that time going for walks, playing, and keeping your pets company. Whether it’s boarding, drop-ins, or walks, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love throughout the day. I have pet CPR and first aid and I’m insured we’ve had a couple different dogs growing up, so i will have no problem bringing them potty, putting them in their cages, walking them ect..
“Hannah was an amazing sitter for our senior cat! I loved the daily updates and accompanying photos. I was very much at ease knowing Hannah was so helpful and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!”
About: I personally love animals and I’ve been taking care of pets since I was around 10-11 years old. I have the most experience with cats and rabbits and fish as I’ve owned a lot of them. Although I’ve never owned one I am well experienced with dogs too as I volunteered at an adoption center and have taken care of my friends dogs many times. I have also worked with birds, hamsters, gerbils, snakes, turtles, frogs, lizards, and farm animals. I am an 19 year old college student and I’m really excited for this opportunity to make some extra money doing what I love. I’m currently working part time and I only go to school 2 days a week, leaving me with plenty of time to take care of your pet. Currently I don’t own any pets, but I have in the past. Im available for overnights on weekends. On weekdays I will most likely be available on afternoons and evenings. The house I’m living in is really spacious and it’s in a compound so there is plenty of space for them to roam around in a large, clean house. For dogs or other outdoor pets there is a large yard out in the back, however it is shared with the compound so it is not fenced. The area/compound itself is really nice, modern, and quiet. It’s a great space to take a walk, especially as the weather cools down. If you need any other information, I can share my contact info and provide pictures of the environment.

Laura was great! She took such good care of our two kitties while we were away and was responsive, kind, and professional. She sent lots of pictures and updates, which helped put us at ease knowing our cats were safe and cared for :). Our cats loved her and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!
Laura is wonderful! She took great care of my cat while we were gone for a week. She sent me lots of pictures each day and it was clear from the photos that my cat loved her. Ferric played with her and sat on her lap even though they just met. I highly recommend her!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in South Lancaster is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
