About: I’ve had / taken care of dogs my whole life. I have a playful 3 year old golden doodle who will keep your pup entertained! I’m on summer break and it’s the first summer I’m not working summer school, so I have a lot of free time! I’ve had / taken care of dogs my whole life, all the way from puppies to older pups. I’m around 24/7! I did all my summer traveling already :) I can come stay at your place or your pup can come stay in my apartment with us! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I do bring my pup to Tufts dog park often, and can bring yours too! Otherwise they can stay in my air conditioned apartment with my family & myself!
“Eliza made sure our two cats were well taken care of and gave them lots of love and attention. We loved knowing they were in good hands while we were out of town. Would definitely use her again!”
“Excellent pet sitter! She was always on time, flexible, and genuinely caring. My pet is on a temporary medicine and she helped with administration with the same care as if it were her own pet. Her expertise was evident, and she even went above and beyond by giving my pet a get-well treat at her own expense. Highly recommended!”
About: I have always loved dogs and I grew up with both dogs and cats! I also used to work at a doggie daycare where I helped take care of dogs daily! I’m a college student and I have a good amount of free time on my hands in between classes! I have a dog back at my house and I dog sit so I have a very good understanding of dogs needs! I will always ask about your routines and the best way to go at things. I will also keep in contact with you and reach out if there are ever any concerns!
About: Owner of 3 yr old pomsky. What sets me apart is my experience caring for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and consistency, to senior dogs who require patience and gentle attention. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, while keeping their routine on track. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like family. Pet care is a natural part of my routine — I enjoy daily walks, outdoor time, and making space for play and cuddles. My schedule is flexible, so I can give pets the attention they need, whether that’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care. In my home, I create a safe and cozy environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable, with plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine closely — from feeding schedules to exercise needs — so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to keep their day as normal and happy as possible while you’re away.
About: would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members! I have a deep, lifelong love for animals and truly enjoy spending quality time making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing with favorite toys, or just providing some extra snuggles on the couch, I treat every animal with the same patience and kindness I would give my own. Your pet's comfort is my top priority. I have watched many dogs/ cats There is nothing I love more than the company of animals! As a teacher, I bring patience and a structured routine to my pet-sitting, ensuring your babies feel secure while you're gone. I’m a morning person who truly enjoys those quiet, early walks, and I’m always ready for more activity or snuggles once the school day ends. Whether it’s a quick overnight or a two-week stay, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I I have watched cats and dogs. Dogs I take them out when they need to walks if need!and for both i give a lot of attention if need. I also talk to the animal to help them h Feel notice.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. Friends and family often have me dog or house sit for them. I have cared for all types/breeds. Personally have helped raise dobermans, pits, labs, beagles and mutts. I am currently between jobs for a few months (I am a contract health care worker), so have a lot of time to spend with pups. I love to be outside at all times, so happy to bring the dogs with me in my adventures in the woods, on the beach, or in your neighborhood. If you want me to stay overnight with your pets I am comfortable with whatever sleeping arrangements you have for them: crate, floor, couch, etc. I want to help them feel comfortable when you are away.
About: I have been a Retriever mom (Golden & Labrador) all my life. I love them with all my heart, but I also understand they need discipline. I will make sure they will be well cared for. I work from home with flexible timings. I would have to make sure the dogs are ok with children(we have a 4-year-old) and our golden. We have a pretty big yard and live a block away from a park. I can take them for longer walks if needed. We usually do walks no matter the weather!
About: I absolutely love animals of all kinds. I grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters and fish. Animals are the kindest beings in the universe and deserve to be treated as such. I’m highly athletic so I love going on walks but I’m also down to just hang around the house and attune to the animals desires. I’ve trained puppies before and have also cared for senior dogs and their specific needs. It’s important you and your animal feel comfortable with the person you let in your home. I’m a recent college graduate from SUNY Purchase and am working towards a career in Dance Production and Arts Management. I love to float around, travel and explore new places. Going outside, being active and hanging with some kind creatures is an absolute joy for me. Good for the Soul! I’m very open to discussing prices and availability. Reach out! I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Dance Production and Arts Management. I am currently on the hunt for work as I could got back from working in Colorado full time. My schedule is wide open. I regularly take the animals out and walks, make sure they are getting exercised, fed, and to drink lots of water. I tend to them personally as each animal is different and make sure they are getting the attention they deserve and crave.
“Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!”
About: I grew up with a dog from the age 3-16! My best friend has a Boxer and I've been taking care and watching him frequently since he was a puppy! I also worked at an office where the owners had two dogs, a small chihuahua and a greater Swiss mountain dog. I took them out for frequent walks & fed them, as well as watched them when the owners weren't around. I'm currently a Stay-Home-Mother. My son is 3 years old, so the pet must be toddler friendly. I am home most weekdays. I can be busy on weekends, but if I have an early heads-up, I can accommodate. I am flexible during the week and have a car to drive to my client's houses! I am willing to stop by and feed, play and walk your pet.
“Jackie has been so wonderful and helpful! Our new puppy needs a lot of face time, and having such a kind and attentive dog nanny keeps this nervous dog mommy from worrying on work days! She keeps our Dolly on schedule and reinforces good habits and training. I cannot recommend her enough!!”
About: I have 9 years of experience with all ages and sizes of dogs. I walked my neighbors dogs for 8 of those years and have had my own dog since, who I trained myself. I have always enjoyed spending time with my furry friends and will treat them like my own! I am in school full time during the day and have a part-time job Monday, Wednesday, Friday night and Saturday afternoon. I am available Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday night while also having a few hours during the day for a possible potty break! I have always believed in slow introductions and building trust with animals. I love spending time with animals and will work to make their experience with a new sitter enjoyable. I am available for dog walking, potty breaks and house sitting. With that being said, I will leave the house cleaner than when I got there!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Upton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Upton 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Upton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
