About: What sets me apart is my experience with long-term and out-of-state pet sitting. I’ve cared for a wide range of pets—including senior animals and high-energy pups—and I’m great at sticking to routines, adapting to different personalities, and making pets feel safe and loved. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated so they can travel with peace of mind Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine. I schedule regular breaks throughout the day to focus on the pets in my care—whether it’s feeding them on time, taking them out for walks, or having play sessions to keep them happy and mentally stimulated. One of the biggest benefits of being home all day is that I’m always nearby to provide companionship, attention, and a consistent routine. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—they’ll get plenty of love, engagement, and care from morning to evening Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards around, and I make sure they’re always supervised—especially during walks or outdoor time. I follow any instructions you provide to a T, from feeding and potty routines to preferred walking routes or special care needs. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own, keeping everything tidy and secure. I also check gates, doors, and anything else that could be a risk for escape artists or curious pets. My goal is to create a calm, trusted environment where your pet feels completely at ease

“Audrey did a great job looking after our pet bunny. We came home to find him well fed and happy. House was clean and tidy, and she communicated with us daily. I highly recommend her service!”


About: I’ve lived and worked with dogs my whole life; big and small, young and old, and a variety of breeds. I started walking friends’ and neighbors’ dogs on my own as a teenager, and I first stayed over as a dog sitter not long after that. Over the years, I’ve gotten quick at reading what a dog needs in the moment, whether that’s more physical activity, some quiet space, or just reassurance and time, and giving them exactly that. I’m comfortable handling the messier and more unpredictable parts of the job too, from accidents to nervous or anxious behavior, without missing a beat. More than anything, I love spending time with animals, and I can’t wait to build a real connection with every animal I work with. - Dog walker for 14+ years (more than 20 dogs, all sizes/ages) -Dog sitter for 10+ years (More than 12 dogs, including households with multiple pets, multiple night stays, familiar and first-time clients) I currently work part-time in a remote role, which gives me plenty of flexibility during the day/week to walk, feed, and play with dogs without any sense of time limitations. I’m available across weekdays and weekends, and almost any time of day, whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening stay. I care for your pets as if they are my own. My promise is to engage with your pet on your terms and with the utmost transparency and communication. I’ll follow the expectations you set (feeding time, walks, medications) so your dog’s routine is as normal as possible while you’re away. I will keep you in the loop throughout with updates, photos, and check-ins. This same care extends to your home, tidy, undisturbed, and just as you left it.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind for the past 8 years. This includes overnight care, walks, meals, baths, and puppy training. I have a deep love for animals and I’m often called the ‘dog whisperer’ by friends and family. I care about all dogs like they’re my own! I am currently working part-time in healthcare with a very flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to take care and spend time with your furry friends! Safety is my top priority. I can easily crate your animals or use gentle training to keep them safe. I have a dog with severe allergies so I am very careful with what my pet can have and I will do the same with yours! I know all owners have different routines and rules for their pets, and will always follow your lead. I am very attentive and caring, so I can be a helping hand and minimize any worry while you’re away.

About: Had a Bernese Mountain Dog for over 6 years that I would care for after school. I have been dog sitting regularly throughout college, from things like overnight care, dog walking, or watching for a couple of hours. I am currently a Senior at Bentley University living off campus in a house. I am taking 6 classes but my schedule is very flexible since the school is only 5 minutes away from my house. I live in a neighborhood with a huge park next to my house where dogs can go for a walk! We know all of our neighbors. My house is very dog safe and pay very close attention to detail when watching them. I very hardly ever leave the dogs alone unless it is a complete emergency.
“Natasha was Great! She watched over our 4-month old puppy while we went out on our own for the first time. She got him through the whining and right into playing, training and resting. She took pictures, and gave us a thoughtful report on what she saw, based on her experience in training dogs. Highly recommended!”


About: I’ve been taking care of pets, specifically dogs and cats, for as long as I can remember. I grew up having about 4-6 pets at a time, so I’m used to making sure each and every pet is loved and cared for to the fullest! I've taken care of dogs that are just puppies and need lots of attention as well as senior dogs that need lots of medication. I also have experience taking care of birds, guinea pigs, and bearded dragons. Whatever your animals need, I'll make sure they are well cared for! Copy and paste the link to get $40 off your first booking! Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability. I'm available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings, Monday and Tuesday evenings, and Friday evening through Sunday afternoon. I'm also open to boarding for extended stays, including a week or longer, and can provide consistent care throughout their stay. I'm happy to follow each pet's usual routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while you're away! I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while they’re with me! I’ll make sure to stick to their normal routine, give them lots of attention and playtime, and of course, plenty of love and cuddles. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions or routines your pet has, and I’ll keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know they’re doing well. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is being well taken care of while you’re away!
About: I am currently a stay at home dog mom while my wife attends OSU Vet School. I have 3+ years experience with my own dogs as well several foster dogs.

I have extensive experience care for animals and I promise to treat your dogs like they are my own. I am comfortable with giving medication, dogs of any size. I don’t mind helping with training reactive dogs on walks or visiting your home a few times if you’re dogs need time to get to know new people. Happy to help with dogs that have some behavioral difficulties. I am currently a stay at home dog mom! That means I have lots to time to spend with your pets! Aside from taking care of my own babies I would love to fill time with fur babies. I am very mindful and aware of my own dogs, their behavior and their needs and I will treat your dogs the same! I will give them my undivided attention and can assure you I will not put them in any situations they will not be successful or safe in.

About: Hi, I'm Amy! I'm a full-time teacher, lifelong dog owner, and Massachusetts-licensed kennel owner who provides a safe, loving home where dogs are treated like family. With a secure fenced yard, daily walks, and plenty of one-on-one attention, your pup will have a fun and comfortable stay. I’ve cared for animals my entire life, growing up with dogs, cats, horses, and other pets, and I regularly board and care for friends' and neighbors' dogs. I currently have a friendly one-year-old White Cream Retriever, Cooper, who loves other dogs, and two dog-friendly cats. I also recently completed a puppy training class, giving me experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. As an active runner and walker, I can provide plenty of exercise for energetic dogs while also creating a calm, cozy environment for those who prefer to relax. My husband and two responsible late-teen children also love animals, so visiting dogs receive lots of affection and supervision. I take the time to learn each dog's routine and will care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into our home! As a full-time teacher and Massachusetts-licensed kennel owner, I have a very flexible schedule during the summer and am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, boarding, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I can often tailor my day to fit your pet's routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and provide dependable, attentive care tailored to each pet's needs. While I have a few short trips planned throughout the summer, my availability is otherwise wide open, and I'll always communicate any scheduling conflicts well in advance. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. 🐾 I provide attentive, reliable care for pets both in my home and in my clients’ homes, depending on what works best for each family. Animals have always been a huge part of my life—there has never been a time when I didn’t have cats or dogs to care for. Even during my time in the Peace Corps, I adopted and cared for several cats. Working with animals is something I genuinely love, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I understand how important consistency is, so I stick to feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions you provide. Whether it’s exercise, playtime, or simply companionship, I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. If care takes place in my home, I offer a safe and welcoming environment. I have a fenced-in backyard for plenty of outdoor time, as well as a very friendly retriever who loves having company. I’m mindful about introductions and make sure all pets feel comfortable and secure. This past year, I also completed a puppy training course with my own dog, which strengthened my ability to reinforce good behavior, follow training routines, and work patiently with dogs of different temperaments and energy levels. Above all, I pride myself on being dependable and communicative. You can count on me to show up as promised, provide thoughtful care, and keep you updated so you have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I would use Jessica again and again to watch our kittens! She leaves such thoughtful reviews, sends great pictures of the boys having fun, and even offered to take care of litter before we even asked. She is truly the best!”

“Sarah was really great with our two cats! She was able to give our one cat the meds she needs and sent many updates throughout the week! She was very attentive and always answered right away. Definitely will book with Sarah again in the future!”

About: I've cared for and trained dogs and cats since age 6. I'm comfortable working with all sizes and breeds of dogs and cats, and I absolutely love large breeds. I'm currently self-employed, so I have a very flexible schedule. I'll work in my work around your and your dog's schedule. Some weekends, I'm taking my kids to a tennis tournament, so I may not be available, or might need to reschedule. I have a large, furnished basement for your dog to run around in and explore, and there's a large soccer field across the street. If I'm visiting your home, I will work with your layout to insure your dog gets enough activity and has some fun!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wayland
Claudia helped us out last minute which was so appreciated. We weren’t sure of the exact times we would need her to come to the house until the morning of but she was completely flexible and happy to help whenever it was best. We have an anxious little dog so the pictures Claudia sent were reassuring he was doing fine. I would definitely request Claudia’s help again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Wayland is $44 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $59 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 November 2026, there are 10,902 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wayland. 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.
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 Wayland 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.
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.
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 Wayland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wayland. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
