“Jenny was so great — responded super quickly to our request, set up a meet and greet, and was wonderful with our pup! He wasn’t even a little upset that we were leaving! Jenny provided lots of pictures to set our minds at ease while we were gone. So glad to have found her!”
“Nikki is amazing. I felt 100% confident leaving my 2 pups and our home in her care. Nikki pays attention to the details, treats my dogs like royalty and left my home in tip top shape. I had Nikki stay in my home for the weekend. She did not hesitate to ask questions and confirm details. She sent photos of the pups throughout the weekend. And even made sure our flight was returning on time before she left our pups. It was such a pleasant experience we are now using her to care for our pups for 6 days. I know they are cared for and happy to be in their own home. I loved coming home and having my pups waiting for us when we walked through the door. Thank you Nikki.”
“Hannah once again did a great job taking care of our dogs! They love her and she kept us updated along the way. We also had an issue with the heat during her most recent stay and she never freaked out about it, just asked what to do next and we kept us updated on progress. Would trust our dogs with her anytime!”
“First time having Julia sit for our two dogs!! I am so happy to say that she was wonderful and I know the dogs loved having her around to hang out with!! She’s a keeper for this family!!”
“We would highly recommend Jess. She took excellent care of Roxie, our yellow Lab, while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. She kept in touch with photos and any questions we had were answered promptly. The house was cleaner than when we left it! Roxie was in wonderful shape and her fur was so soft she must have been brushed daily! We would use her again without reservation.”
About: I volunteer with the darbster foundation as much as I can with school. Taking care of all animals is a passion of mine from dogs all the way to birds. I work full time as of right now and I’m attending school. For the moment I can only do weekend boarding for dogs because I want to make sure your animal can get the attention it deserves. I have one cat who tends to mind his business and snooze in hidden spaces. Unless the parents have a schedule that needs to be followed for their fur baby they are allowed to roam around the apartment and use the furniture as much as they’d like. As for animals in the clients home I will surely make sure they’re entertained and exercised; however, the specifics of pet care will ultimately be determined by the customer as I know no one dog can be cared for the same.
“We highly recommend Jenna. She was the perfect sitter for our dog and cat. Phenomenal communication and what’s more, we came home to an immaculate home! We couldn’t have asked for more.”
About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. I have brought up two cats from 6 weeks and 8 weeks to now almost 4 and 5 years old. I work full time from 7-3:30, however, normally can take my lunch and leave at 2:30. I’m quite the early bird and am happy to take animals out earlier in the mornings as needed, and in the early/later afyernokns When in the client’s home, I will be sure to give the animal space when they need it, and attention/play when needed. If no allergies exist, I also like to bring them treats. :)
“Wren was very communicative with me and asked lots of good questions about Moose. He sent us lots of pictures and updates. Moose is very sensitive but Wren was very patient with him and took care of his extra needs. We’ll definitely be working with Wren again!”
“Asia took wonderful care of my Yorkie over the course of two days this week. She is friendly, diligent, professional, communicative, and very kind. Your pet could not possibly be in a better hands. She has a great love for animals and it shows in her work.”
“Did a great job taking care of Zannah while I was away on a stressful business trip but knowing my dog was taken care of gave me one less thing to worry about so I could focus on the work mess I was dealing with.”
About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and these days I'm often the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their pets. I've spent plenty of time walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including larger, high-energy breeds. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality and building trust with them. I've even trained my own cats to do tricks and respond to commands using positive reinforcement. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I take the responsibility seriously because I know how much people's pets mean to them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Outside of work, taking care of animals has always been a regular part of my life, whether that's spending time with my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. Because I work a consistent schedule and plan my time carefully, I can be reliable and punctual when it comes to pet care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so it's something I genuinely look forward to rather than trying to squeeze into a busy schedule. I try to keep things as close to the pet's normal routine as possible. When I'm caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner's instructions and make sure they're getting everything they need, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medications, or just some company while their owner is away. I pay attention to each animal's personality and body language and adjust my approach accordingly. Some pets want lots of attention and activity, while others are happier with a quieter approach and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with both. Safety is always important to me. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I keep an eye out for anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I make sure that I'm always available, and communication is a huge priority for me

About: Ive been a dog trainer for about 4 years. I specialize in reactive dog handling and went through intense training myself in Maine for 6 months to be able to do what I do & would love to work with your dog/dogs. I have training in working with all type of breeds & temperaments. I currently work part-time as a dog trainer, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and training sessions throughout the week, with the most flexibility in the afternoons and evenings. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a structured, low-stress environment by sticking to your dog’s routine as closely as possible while also reinforcing calm behavior and good habits. I have experience handling dogs of all temperaments, including reactive and high-energy dogs, and I’m always mindful of body language and triggers to prevent issues before they start.
“Again, Sarah was wonderful in taking care of Lucy. She was available for my last minute request and managed everything well. She even watered my plants! Sarah always goes above and beyond. Lucy always seems very happy and content upon my return. I would highly recommend her.”
“Emily stayed in my home for 3 weeks taking the absolute best care of my 2 precious kitties. I received regular updates and pictures and they were so happy and well adjusted when I got home.

About: Hello! My name is Katherine and my experience with animals has ranged from volunteering to in home sitting. I am so excited to offer my services and meet your furry friends. Not only do I love meeting new breeds, but I care about their health and wellbeing. My weekly visits to my local animal shelter gives me a chance to showcase my passion for helping dogs who lost their homes. My volunteer experience includes walking, feeding, and caring for various breeds of all sizes! These visits have made me familiar with a dog’s body language that may signal how they are feeling. We meet many new dogs each week that are new to this environment and may be very nervous and timid. This also has given me a chance to learn how I can gain a dog’s trust with friendly mannerisms. I can’t wait to get started on Rover and meet your furry little friends! I have recently graduated with a bachelors degree from college and am looking for opportunities to spend time with animals. Currently, I have a part-time job and have lots of time to care for and visit any animals needing company throughout the week. My dog at home gets daily walks and has a runner in my backyard for when she needs to go outside. I often give her treats when she is being a good girl and notice if she needs to use the bathroom outside. At my local shelter, I am able to feed large and small dogs and leash dogs who are unfamiliar with me. I tend to make sure my posture and manners are friendly with all the pups! I also make sure to notice when a dog needs praising and do not ignore their good behavior!

Melanie is the BEST! You can tell she is really a dog person and my fur babies LOVED her. My dogs can be really needy with attention and cuddles, and Melanie was happy to oblige. I felt so comfortable with them in her care. She was kind, responsive, and respectful. I will definitely be hiring her again!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Tyngsboro walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Tyngsboro maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Tyngsboro 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
