“She was great with our high energy puppy, who usually tends to scare people away! She was very nice and dropped in to play with our puppy during his training sessions. She acted professionally, seemed to love dogs, was super calm and really helped us with the training. She also seemed experienced with dogs as she gave us a couple tips!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Julia! Fitzy and Javi are extremely shy, fearful, and apprehensive around strangers, so I was very nervous about leaving them in someone else’s care. Julia went above and beyond to spend extra time with them, earn their trust, and make them feel safe and comfortable. She was always responsible, punctual, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I could tell she truly cared about my boys and treated them as if they were her own. Knowing they were in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Julia to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate cat sitter, and I cannot wait to book with her again in the future! Fitzy and Javi say, “Thank you, Julia! We hope to see you again soon!””
About: I am a fear-free certified professional trainer! Because of this along with almost a decade of experience, I am very confident in handling nervous or less-than-friendly dogs. I've absolutely adored animals of all kinds since I was a little kid, even the ones that most people were afraid of. As an adult, I've worked in shelters, kennels, and in client's homes without incident! Depending on the days, I may have to make short trips away to train my client dogs. I will gladly spend the entirety of the rest of my time with your pets, including overnights! I am happy to follow a schedule if one is provided. I will also provide video or picture updates as frequently as requested. I will also be happy to check the house the pet is staying in to make sure it's safe for the pet. Any messes or accident's are no problem for me to clean up and I will inform the owner about them.
“Jen was fantastic! We couldn’t be happier with her exceptional care of our dog Finn! Jen kept us updated with texts, videos and photos. Between the long walks, movie time and playtime, I don’t think she missed us at all! I would not hesitate to call Jen again!!”
“Kayla took care of our cat CeCe while we were away. She followed all instructions and was able to send us a picture of our shy cat. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“I’ve lost count how many times I’ve rebooked with Alison because she’s so great!! She sends the best updates and photos and I always feel at ease knowing she’s checking on my Millie ♥️”
“So glad I had Ashley come check on my cats while I was away. They have some medical issues so I had to give very precise and complicated directions when it came to feeding them and giving meds. She was super understanding and was amazing with the cats. Gave them love, played with them, and was able to make sure they got the food and meds they needed while I was away. She sent lots of cute pictures and kept me updated after every visit. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience than what I got with her! I will most certainly be a repeat customer and recommend her to others who need pet sitting. I was nervous leaving them with the health issues they have been having, this was a great experience and I was able to relax knowing they were in good hands with Ashley.”
“Shea & Damien were extremely attentive to the dogs needs & very accommodating to our schedule last minute! The dogs loved them! They noticed things we didn’t mention and did everything needed to keep dogs comfortable & more! Great communication and up front with what they could do with schedule. Highly recommend these two! We are so grateful for their help! We will definitely use again!”
“Virginia was great and kept George good company while I was out. Even left a toy and card. Would recommend Virginia to others and would request her to watch George again!”
“Zachary helped take care of my kitty Zeus while I was away for an extended period of time. Zachary sent me updates with each visit to keep my mind at ease. He is a dependable sitter and I recommend him for your pet care needs.”
About: I have always had a love for all pets and have always had dogs in my family home ! I always look foward to meeting new furry friends and caring for them as if they were my own ! I’m currently not working at the time and with the weather slowly warming up I have a lot of free time to walk your pups , play ,etc ! Keeping your pets safe is my number 1 priority! I don’t have a yard unfortunately but a lot of parks and trails along Quinsigamond where I live along with a great field that I go to often with my dog and great neighbors with great dogs !
“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!”
“Colin is so great with our growing puppy. He helps keep his consistency and schedule. He works on behaviors and tricks with him, takes him on walks and makes sure he gets lunch! Colin is an all in one amazing dog sitter!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Boylston stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 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 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.

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 West Boylston with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
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. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
