About: I have been taking care of animals for a very long time and recently got into pet sitting! I’ve worked for quite a few families and have been pet sitting for over a year now. I dog walk as well and all the families I have worked for have loved me. I’ve taken care of mutiple animals at once with no trouble. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals with no issue! I am easy going and understanding and very energetic! I’m currently a college student and I love doing this as a part time job! I have plenty of good references and a very flexible schedule. I love working with animals and people and would be thrilled to help! Please consider me as a worthwhile candidate for your pet care position!

While being outside (in the yard or on walks) I ensure that the yard is properly closed off and/or they are wearing the proper gear for the selected activity. I make sure to abide by any food restrictions and that no other dogs or people come in contact with your animal for everyone’s safety.
“Amy was very thorough with her details about the visit. Followed my directions on what I am working on with the puppy. And she was very professional when I met her during our meet and greet.”

“Ann Marie had been so reliable and flexible with watching our dog! She is always on time for check-ins and was able to help with an urgent request when we were really in a bind. She is so caring and patient with our dog and we can’t wait to book our next appointment with Ann Marie! She is the best!!”
“Emily was so wonderful with taking care of our cat and dog! She provided great updates with lots of details and photos, and we could relax on our trip knowing our pets were getting lots of attention and love. 😊”
“Laura is great and my puppy loves her! Shes great with a pup who’s still learning her manners. Knowing she was coming to hang out with Eloise put my mind at ease when I started going back to the office after adopting her. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have trained all of our dogs myself with our family members. My Friends always ask us to watch their fur babies when they go away. We just love our pets, and will take good care of your s too. I'm working from home and there is always a family member home. We have a fenced in yard and our own dog that we care for during the day and evening. I have a fenced in yard and a my own fur baby and would love to play with yours.

“I HIGHLY recommend Courtney! I am very particular about my dogs, and she took such great care of them. I will absolutely book her again. One of my dogs is very skeptical about new people but loved Courtney immediately. Both my dogs take medication daily (one twice daily), and this was no problem.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young, but never got the opportunity to own one myself. I do have experience with dogs, including aggressive ones, anxious ones, seniors, and puppies. I’ve been trained on animal behavior and know how to correct inappropriate behavior. I worked full time at a pet board and daycare so I promise I understand dogs! I’m currently out of work due to some personal matters, but I am more than physically fit to take care of animals. I am pregnant and due in January, but that doesn’t stop me from being active! I currently do not offer pet care in my own home, but I do offer in-home pet care. Depending on your pet’s personality and their personal requirements I can pill pop medication, but I don’t do injectables. I can also bathe them if that is something you’re interested in. I do ask that if you have a reactive dog that you provide your own materials, whether it be a certain leash, collar, and/or muzzle while on a walk or during baths. Anything to make your pet more comfortable while in my care.
About: Hi, I’m Ryan! My wife and I live in Wakefield with our 3-year-old dachshund, Chip, who loves meeting new dogs. We both work from home and are always around. We’re comfortable with dogs of all types; every size, age, energy level, etc. We both have had dogs since the day we were born. My first dog was a black lab that was a year older than me. When I was 8 we got a golden retriever and I was responsible for feeding and walking every day. He even slept in my bedroom every night. Over the years I had 2 more goldens and a shitzu. My wife grew up with a jack russell, several dachshunds, a PBGV and a Chihuahua. I’m very active, so high-energy dogs get plenty of walks, yard play, and hikes on the nearby trails. My wife has a soft spot for senior dogs and gives older pups the slower pace and extra care they need. I run my own local business and my wife works from home, so someone is almost always around. Your dog won’t spend the day alone. You’ll get photos and updates throughout every stay. Fenced yard, walkable neighborhood, and hiking nearby. Guest dogs are part of the family here. They’re free to roam the house, hang out with us on the couch, and sleep wherever they’re comfortable. No crates or kennels unless your dog prefers one. Chip is friendly and social and makes a great playmate.
About: I am a veterinary technician with 9 years experience in the field. I am confident in my skills with animals of all breeds and sizes I have plenty of time to spend with your 4 legged friends when you are not available to be there for them. Making them feel loved in the way you would I spend as much time as needed with your pet and in case of an emergency I have access to medical help for your pets immediately
About: I have loved dogs my whole life but have never had one of my own. Because of this, I’ve become the go-to guy for all my friends’ dogsitting needs. I spent 2020 as a professional dog walker in Boston and fine tuned my skills at handling multiple dogs at a time. I have picked up training skills and also enjoy taking photos of my furry friends! Additionally, I have cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Every dog is different in how much attention or exercise they need and I’m always ready to adapt to best take care of them. I love getting to know dogs and their unique personalities and I hope I can get to know yours too! While I may be a dog person, I love all animals and have met my share of cool cats so please consider me to care for all kinds of fur babies. I’m currently caring for two golden doodles, Muffin & Brandy, for the summer. If you ask them, we have a great routine of food, sleep and play! I know every pet has specific needs and I am always looking to meet those so they can live their best lives. I’m capable of handling dogs with high energy levels or chill out with kitties that just want to snooze. I’m always vigilant as well since I know our pals can sometimes be sneaky.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tewksbury
Holly is easily a 5/5 dog walker! I would rate her a 6 out of 5 if I could. We needed a dog walker for a week that we'd be out of town, but we were nervous about hiring one for our 14-year-old Border Collie, Riker, since he can be a difficult handful even for us! My 83-year-old mother was able to take care of Riker's feeding but couldn't walk him. He has always been protective and defensive against strangers, but as he's gotten older and his vision and hearing has started to go, he's also prone to getting surprised and spooked. We were delighted to discover that Holly not only had experience with older dogs like Riker but also was able to put him at ease! Over the course of the week, Riker went from barking at Holly when she approached to coming to her for pets and treats and looking forward to her arrival. From day 1, Holly provided us with the most perfect, adorable photos of Riker we have ever seen, which is impressive because he's always been extremely camera shy and hard to photograph. If you're not sure if you should hire Holly, take it from the owner of an extremely fussy Border Collie: Holly is the best, and she will make sure your dog is cared for perfectly!
Without a doubt, best sitter I’ve ever had. See my previous 5 star reviews. Alyssa is nothing short of amazing. If I died, I would trust her to take care of my pets for the rest of their lives, no question and no exaggeration. Begrudgingly, you should definitely book with Alyssa. Even if it might make her too busy for my own 💔

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Tewksbury is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Tewksbury choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 , 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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
