“Holly was so professional and communicative. Responded nearly immediately and made a point to get to know our dogs and their space before committing to take care of them. She is exactly the type of person you want taking care of your pets. Would highly recommend Holly and will definitely use her in the future!”
“Chelsea was a lifesaver and a pleasure to work with, as always! She accommodated a last minute booking, was professional and great with my cat. We love her! This is our second time working with her, and I've already snagged her for my next trip over the holidays.”
“Allyson was very friendly and easy to set up a booking to do daily stop-ins for my cat Cleo. Very fast communication and did a great job taking care of all of my cat's needs (as well as sending me updates). Would highly recommend Allyson and book her again.”
“Mariann did a great job communicating with us and being flexible about scheduling. She gave my elderly cat her pill twice daily and kept us in the loop. I felt very comfortable leaving Missy in her capable hands!”
“We had Nancy visiting my cat for 7 days while we were away. Linda was very responsible. She sent me updates every day after visiting and also sent me photo of my cat, which really gave us a peace of mind when we were away from home. Highly recommend Nancy’s service.”
“Katherine was amazing! She was so great to work with, and very understanding about the comfort level of each kitty and what they needed. I would recommend her to anyone looking to leave their fur babies in kind and caring hands:)”
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.
“Very good experience with Rover. Leah was a wonderful cat visitor. She provided detailed summaries of each visit along with lots of photos. I highly recommend this service!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of “dog auntie” energy 🐾 I’m patient, attentive, and especially comfortable with senior pets. I can administer medications, follow feeding routines, give baths, go on walks, and provide plenty of playtime, cuddles, and companionship. I’m also currently saving toward surgery and treatment for my own 10-year-old pup, so every booking means a little extra to us. ❤️ I’ll care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care already fits naturally into my routine. I’m available before and after work, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to plan walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and cuddles around your pet’s normal schedule. I’m big on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow instructions carefully, keep doors and leashes secure, monitor eating and behavior, and always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and affection.
“Kayla did a great job watching our cats! Our girl cat loves her (probably due to churu bribery). Kayla also keeps tabs on our super shy boy cat even when he hides under our bed.”
About: I have lots of experience with dogs, and I am passionate about making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I have two dogs at home, 4 and 7, whom I love very dearly. I regularly do dog walks and have experience with overnight stays for one or two dogs at a time. I’m comfortable walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. Although my schedule varies, pet care is something I truly prioritize. I often dog-sit and walk dogs during my free time, allowing me to be flexible while still providing attentive, loving care. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment for pets, with plenty of space to play and relax. I ensure they have access to fresh water, toys, and cozy spots to rest. In my clients' homes, I prioritize their pets' comfort and follow any specific instructions provided. I maintain a clean and secure space, offer companionship, and keep them engaged with playtime and exercise. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with love and attention to ensure they feel at ease.
“Kelsey did a phenomenal job taking care of our two cats! She was prompt with all communication and visits, gave them both a lot of attention, and sent sweet pictures with detailed updates. Would definitely rebook!”
About: Over 10 years of hands-on experience managing daily exercise, nutrition, and routine care for both dogs and cats. Would love to help with yours. I have an early shift coverage and dont work nights and weekends so can easily cover nightly walks or weekend as needed and look forward to meeting your pet I will follow and and all instructions provided to ensure you and your pet have a stress free experience and everyone is happy and comfortable
“Laura took great care of our cat while we were on vacation for ten days. She kept in regular contact with us, and our cat was in good spirits when we got home. We would definitely hire Laura again!”
“We are so happy we booked with Kerry! It was wonderful getting to meet her during our meet and greet, and we felt comfortable leaving our Labrador Retriever, Enzo, in her care. My husband and I were away for two days, and Kerry provided drop-in visits that included walks, feeding, playtime in the backyard, fresh water, and lots of great company for Enzo while we were away. She was so attentive and responsive throughout our time away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Enzo was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciated how thoughtful and reliable Kerry was. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like their own! 🐾❤️”
“Julia did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats. She was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure the cats (and our home!) were comfortable and clean. She took initiative to adjust the A/C and fans to keep the space comfortable, cleaned up not just the food dishes and litter boxes, but also a surprise hairball, and even swept the floor. Her updates were thorough and reassuring, with sweet touches like hiding toys and checking in on how much each cat ate—she clearly paid close attention to their individual personalities and needs. Julia was communicative, responsible, and kind—and her love for cats really shows. I'm so grateful this was our first experience with her and would absolutely recommend her to others!”

Larissa watched our two, high energy 50 lb dogs, over a long weekend. She was very thorough in asking about how to best care of the house and the dogs and did a phenomenal job. You can tell she really cares and enjoys taking care of pets and went above and beyond in all aspects, including updating and providing great photos. We would not hesitate to recommend Larissa to any fellow pet parents!
Andrea has been our sitter for 3 months now. Andrea is very dependable and our two dogs love her. One of our dogs is a bit anxious but Andrea handles her well with patience and love. We will continue to use Andrea as our dog sitter as long as she will have us. We highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Westborough is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $39 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 October 2026, there are 10,344 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Westborough. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westborough. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
