“Helana did a perfect job! My cat was comfortable enough to go right up to her and play. She gave me peace of mind that he was okay. I have zero complaints. I will definitely book with her again!”

About: Hello! My name is Rylee, i currently own two cats but have been a previous owner to a pitbull adopted from my local shelter. My dog was unfortunately abused as a puppy and had some behavioral issues so I am very use to dealing with these types of dogs. Although I have not owned a dog since, I love all my friends and families dogs dearly. I will be more than happy to provide toys or treats your dog enjoys to have fun while away from home! I treat every dog like it’s my own and will always reach out with any questions or concerns while they are in my care. I have frequent experience dog sitting for my aunt’s two dogs, four cats along with taking care of their fish. I also have experience with administering oral and topical medication to dogs that I have pet sat for and following specific feeding routines. Please feel free to message me to talk about caring for your furry friends! I currently work a full time job but that does not stop me from helping out your pets! I will likely do better with an animal that can manage 6-8 hours without being let out during weekdays. Weekends that I have open availability, your pet will get my full attention! I am more than open to staying in the home to help accommodate your pet and make them comfortable while you’re away! I like to stick as close as possible to your average daily routine with your pets to make things easy for you and them! When staying in peoples homes I am very conscious of keeping things clean and tidy and helping out with other things such as watering plants, bringing in the mail, putting out the trash and making sure things are secure as I come and go!
About: I’ve been pet sitting since 2015. I have looked after a whole range of health and abilities, including a diabetic cat who needed insulin injections, and a dog who needed eye drops! I’m an early career art teacher hoping to spend some well-needed time with furry friends afterschool and on weekends. I also take lots of pictures :) I am sure to be extremely respectful of your home and space! I love learning how you do things and doing my best to replicate it. My hope is for pet parents to rest assured knowing their babies are in safe, experienced, and loving hands.
About: Hi, I’m Meg! I’m an experienced, flexible, and reliable pet care-giver. I handle any dog big or small, high energy or timid, anxious or extra friendly. Safety is my top priority when caring for your pet, and I prioritize open + consistent communication to ensure the best care for your animals! I currently work extended shifts, so I have several days off per week. My schedule is very flexible, and I am available early mornings as well as throughout the day + evening! I prioritize your preferences, concerns, and your pet’s individual needs when watching them in home! I am comfortable administering necessary medications or accommodating to specific needs. I aim to understand your pet’s typical routine and patterns to best provide a stable and happy environment for them while you are away!
About: I’ve owned pets since my daughter was young and brought her first kitten home. I’ve been helping her to walk dogs for a couple years now. I’m retired so my schedule is fairly open. It gets me walking and outside, two things I enjoy. It helps my health and makes me feel good. Happy to walk your dog! Cannot have pets stay at my house as I have a kitty cat of my own. His name is Toby and he’s a real pain in the butt! 😂
About: I have taken care of several dogs for several families for my entire adult life. I have watched dogs from puppy age up until older adult dogs. I also have a dog at home. I am available every day except on every other Saturday. I can care for pets any time of day, including overnights. I only cannot board. I take the dogs outside or for walks and I maintain a clean and safe and loving environment for all pets in my care always.
About: I’ve cared for all sorts of animals, cats, dogs, specially horses. You can count on me to be there on time to take care of your animals. They are like family and I will love and care for your pets like my own. I am available 7 days a week, especially weekends. I work part time in the evening at a barn in Shrewsbury for 2 hours from 4-6pm. I also work at a barn in grafton on Wednesday morning from 7-9pm. I can take care of special needs or animals that need medication. I have done horse medication for a little bit when I worked at a barn for some time. I also had a really sick dog before she passed and had to give her meds + do her feeding tube twice a day. Did everything I could, sadly she passed.
About: Most of my days are spent outside with my dogs, hiking mountains and trails, biking with them running alongside, or paddle boarding on local ponds, rivers, and lakes. Right now that’s Indie, a Catahoula Cur/Boxer mix who loves bike rides, fishing, and adventure, and Kaia, a Boykin Spaniel who loves to swim, hike, and play. Over the years I’ve also raised a Brittany and a Vizsla, and I’m comfortable with every kind of dog, from energetic puppies and high-energy working breeds to laid-back seniors. My dogs have gone through professional training programs, and I keep up good leash manners and recall on every walk. Puppies get consistency and patience; seniors get extra attention to comfort. What to expect: I’ll follow your dog’s routine, including feeding and any meds, and tailor each walk to them, whether that’s a long, energetic walk or an easy stroll around the block. You’ll get photos and an update through the Rover app after every visit. I serve the Central MA area and am happy to set up a free meet and greet first. I work full-time as a Marketing Manager with a flexible, mostly remote schedule, so I can fit consistent visits into my week. Mon, Wed, Fri: morning, midday, and evening walks and drop-ins Tue, Thu: not available Weekends: morning, afternoon, and evening walks and drop-ins I plan my week ahead so visits happen on time, whether your dog needs a one-time walk or a regular weekly schedule. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding times, walk schedules, meds, and any house rules, so they stay comfortable while you’re away. On every walk, I check that harnesses and collars are secure, keep dogs leashed, and stay alert to other dogs, traffic, and wildlife. Client dogs never go off-leash or to dog parks unless you’ve asked me to. Before each visit ends, I double-check doors, gates, and locks, and make sure your dog has fresh water. I keep your vet and emergency contact info on hand, and you’ll get photos and an update through the Rover app after every visit.

About: My name is Emma and I’m a Registered Nurse and am looking to also start pet sitting & dog walking again. I have a dog myself and know how important he is to me and I’d love to treat your pets with the same love & care! I trained my dog to not pull on leash and we walk a ton. I also have 2 cats at home and would love to cat sit.

About: My love for pets started 13 years ago when I got my first Samoyed during my freshman year of college. The following year, I welcomed a Husky into my apartment. After graduating, I became a cat owner as well and have cared for three cats over the years. Having lived with both dogs and cats for so long, I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most of the day aside from going to the gym. This gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I have a spacious home with a large yard where dogs have plenty of room to relax and play. Depending on your dog’s preferences and routine, they can spend most of their time comfortably indoors or enjoy more time outside in the yard. I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
“I’ve used Danielle several times and would recommend her to anyone. She spends a lot of time with my dog/at my house, provides frequent updates, and leaves the house in equal or better shape then when I left it. She follows all instructions related to medicines and anything else. I know my dog is in good hands.”
About: Every animal brings pure joy into my life, and I genuinely adore caring for all pets—from energetic wanderers to quiet, gentle souls who take a little time to warm up. I meet every pet exactly where they are, learning their unique language, respecting their boundaries, and making sure their days are full of comfort, safety, and genuine love. Living with my own three-legged dog and having nursed my sweet cats through cancer, I bring deep patience and calm confidence to medical routines, medication schedules, and unique physical needs. Whether your companion needs a brisk walk, a gentle ear scratch, or thoughtful care with their daily treatments, I’d love to connect and give your furry family member the dedicated attention they deserve! I have an open, flexible schedule dedicated to pet care from Sunday to Thursday (all day and evening). Whether your pet needs an early-morning walk, mid-day playtime, or evening drop-in visits and medications, I can easily match their exact routine. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their environment familiar, safe, and stress-free. I strictly follow your established routine—from exact feeding and medication times to favorite walking routes and play habits—so your pet feels secure and comfortable in their own space. During every visit or house-sitting stay, I provide attentive companionship, clean food and water bowls, and handle any necessary light tidy-up around pet areas. You will always receive detailed updates with photos after each visit, giving you complete peace of mind that your home is secure and your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for.
About: I grew up surrounded by cats, dogs, birds, rats, and fish. I love animals and care for them as members of my family. Beyond routine care of cats and dogs, I have had experience administering insulin and testing blood sugar in cats, clipping nails, bathing, administering ear medication and ear cleaning, assisted feeding, checking for constipation in cats, and ensuring pills are swallowed. If available my husband may join me for a dog walk if we confirm that’s OK and your animal likes men. Although my husband will definitely provide love and attention to your pet, I will be the one responsible for caring for your pet and will be the one you communicate with. I am an experienced pet sitter who cares deeply for all living beings. I am a recent SAHM to a baby under 1 year. I am looking to continue my love for animals while also caring for my baby. We would do best with low energy pets and/or pets who are friendly/familiar with children. Prior to having a baby I was very open to watch all personality types but for the safety of baby and pets, I will need to be a bit more selective when it comes to finding the right fit. Once we find a match, I know we will have an awesome time together :) We love going on walks and stopping to smell, look, and just enjoy the day! When in another person's home I follow instructions meticulously to meet your animals needs. When boarding at my home, I like to be as transparent as possible with what I can offer and what my space has available so we make a perfect match before your animal arrives.
About: I have been taking care of our bull dogs for seven years now. We adopt and had three before our oldest recently passed away. Bull dogs provide quite a bit of high maintenance care such as cleaning all folds multiple times a day, tail pockets, monitoring skin for yeast or allergies and of course… wiping butts after potty time. At least two walks or forms of exercise a day to keep them in shape for their health and breathing issues; if you see my babies photos, they are in super shape! So caring for three I feel shows my love, responsibility, managing skills and understanding of how to properly and lovingly care for pets. For many years now, I have also cared for a variety of my family members dogs and cats, whether that involves feeding, walking/ exercise, over nights, and loving attention. I am Corporate Life Coach & Counselor so I have a flexible schedule that I make myself, in a variety of towns in Massachusetts ( which is why my radius is so big) I also have a rental house in Dennisport MA, so providing pet care in the Cape is an option too! I love my fur-babies and providing love, exercise and quality time is what your pet deserves too! I will be providing services at your household, so any and all safety protocol will be provided that suits you and your pet to the fullest!
“Esmeralda was FANTASTIC. My husband and I were out of the country for 5 days and we were in need of care for our English bulldog and senior French bulldog. Esmeralda did an outstanding job of communicating, providing gentle care, timely visits multiple times a day, doling out medications, keeping the house clean, sending follow up photos and more. I will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend her to anyone who needs professional and compassionate care for their pets.”

About: I have worked at two separate dog daycares, one of which was part of an animal hospital, which I also worked for! I have experience with grooming, basic first aid, and providing enriching environments for our best friends. My future goal was once to become a certified dog trainer, and while I still have a passion for training, I have pivoted back to college for psychology. I am now a Registered Behavior Technician and work with children (and young adults) on the autism spectrum. Hilariously, a lot of the same skills are used in both fields, since they are behavior-based. I have a lot of experience with dogs with special needs! My own dog, Chandi, who passed in 2025, had an incredibly sensitive system due to a birth defect for which she received surgery, and could only eat a very specific diet. There have been many times when medical attention was required. From working at home and at the animal hospital, I have experience with administering pills, ointments, ear drops, eye drops, liquid medications, removing ticks, and more. If your dog has special needs, I believe I am very well equipped to handle them! Most of my evenings are available! My only restrictions are a class from 8-9pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and I am unavailable on Saturdays (unless I am dog-sitting). I would offer an enriching environment with lots of stimulation and attention. I would prioritize your pup's physical and emotional needs and tailor my plan for them accordingly. Every pup has their own personality, and I love to navigate a new bond. I am absolutely fine with your pets sleeping on the bed with me! I honestly love it.

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.

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 West Boylston 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.
