“Kate was excellent! She came by our house a few days before our scheduled visit to meet our boys, Loki and Thor, and I appreciated how she asked questions about their food, litter, and even their favorite toys. Lots of attention to detail! When it came to the day of the visit, Kate was great at communicating with me about how our cats were doing and sent us photos of them. When we returned from our trip, there was still lots of food left for our kitties which gave me peace of mind! Loki and Thor were in good hands with Kate and I look forward to hiring her again as our pet sitter for future visits. Thanks, Kate!”
“Jazmin did a fantastic job caring for my special needs dog.She was patient, attentive, and took the time to understand his routine and medications. I felt completely at ease while away, thanks to the updates and photos she sent, and I came home to a happy, calm pup.”
“Annabelle took wonderful care of my dog, Abby, and my cat, Artemis, while I was away. Abby is recovering from a leg injury and has a detailed care routine, including medication and extra support getting around. Annabelle followed every instruction, made sure Abby received all of her medication, helped support her injured leg when needed, and cleaned up after her outside. She also made sure both pets always had clean food and water bowls, gave them plenty of attention and affection, and left everything neat and organized. When I got home, both Abby and Artemis were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Throughout the entire stay, Annabelle was incredibly responsible, responsive, and dependable. She kept me updated, replied quickly to messages, and paid attention to all of the little details. Caring for an injured dog takes extra patience and compassion, and she handled Abby’s recovery with genuine care. She treated my pets like they were her own, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Annabelle truly went above and beyond, and I would absolutely trust her with Abby and Artemis again without hesitation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter.”
About: I've been a dog sitter for over a decade, on top of having my own pets as well. I've watched dogs as small as shih tzus and yorkies, to dogs as big pit bulls and labs. I am pretty active and love to go on walks, and would love to bring your dog with me! I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibility throughout the day to help take care of your pets! I am available for daytime walks or check-ins almost everyday, and available to house sit any time as long as you reach out in advance! I have house-sat for friends and family for over 10+ years, and feel very comfortable saying that I have always been a clean, respectful house guest. I am a non-smoker; and I would prioritize your comfort and privacy while staying in your home, ensuring your pet is well cared for when I am there.
“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
About: Pet sitting and dog walking have been a passion of mine for over fifteen years now. Growing up with pets my entire life stemmed my love for this job. Previously before taking on my own clients, I volunteered at an animal rescue center. I have experience with all types of animals including dogs, cats, farm animals, & exotic pets. I have been trained in animal behaviors, animal restraint, CPR, and obedience training skills. At my home, I own a Czech working line German Shepherd named Buddy and a domestic short hair cat named Loaf. Monday-Friday open availability.

About: Hello! I’m Liz, a K-1 teacher with a passion for understanding the unique, non-verbal personalities of our beloved pets. With extensive personal experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish, I know that animal communication is all in the details—from a swish of a tail to a specific reptilian posture. I am responsible, nurturing, and looking to fill my extra time by providing capable, knowledgeable care for your "fur kids." Whether it’s high-energy dog walking or keeping your scaled/finned friends on their specific schedules, your pets will be safe, loved, and thoroughly engaged. I am currently working as a teacher in the afternoon and have morning and evening availability M-F for dog walking, daily check-in's, house sitting and more. As a K-1 teacher, I specialize in "reading the room" and picking up on non-verbal cues, a skill that allows me to provide an exceptional level of observant, intuitive care for your pets. My approach is rooted in safety and structured communication; I don’t just "stop by," but instead actively monitor body language—from a cat’s tail swish to a reptile’s posture—to ensure every animal is thriving. You can expect detailed updates after every visit regarding behavior, appetite, and health, giving you total peace of mind while you're away. Whether I’m double-checking heat and humidity settings for your exotic pets or maintaining hyper-vigilance during dog walks, I treat your home and "fur kids" with the highest level of professional responsibility, ensuring your space is secure and your pets feel safe, seen, and loved.
About: Hello there! I am a full-time musician and a major dog-lover. I have a 5 year old rescue Australian Cattle Dog mix. I love to play, walk and run with furry friends and make music with them (This is quite an entertaining activity for both of us, and a great way to keep them busy). Most of my experience has been in dog-walking, but I'm also a babysitter and love caring for kids. I have a 1 year old who is the joy of my life! I am available for one-time help with your fluffy friend as well as regular help since my schedule is pretty flexible at the moment. I am quick on my feet and great at tidying up after dogs and tiny humans, and can be very firm with pups if necessary. Happy to speak more in person! I’m currently working part-time and mostly on weekends since I’m a musician, so I have quite a bit of time during the week to drop in, feed and walk your furry friends I have a fenced in backyard and an extra crate for pups that I’m boarding, but also make sure that when I’m house-sitting, your fur baby has water, a clean crate and whatever else they need
“Kyle is great! He has been walking Quinn for a couple weeks now & she is very comfortable with him! She’s a nervous Nelly, so this is important to us. He also helps out with Maddy, our 16 y/o cat that needs medication daily. He goes above & beyond for us & we apostate him!!”
About: Hi there! 🐾 I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, reptiles, birds, and more! I also volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I work with animals of different personalities, temperaments, and care needs.

In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and a large yard for supervised outdoor time. My goal is always to make your fur baby feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
“Ann Marie was an amazing sitter for our two kitties! My first time using a sitter but she made the process seamless and gave us peace of mind. She even took time to take photos and give them treats. Couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely rebook next time we leave for vacation.”

Pet 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 💔

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Tewksbury is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 10,356 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tewksbury. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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.

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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
