“Sheylah was an excellent cat sitter for our two cats. She was reliable, and very sweet and accommodating to the kitties with their unique needs. I would highly recommend her!”
“Alison did a great job and offered excellent peace of mind while we were away. She was conscientious (for example, asking about air conditioning because a heat wave was expected), and she even got my shy cat to come out to say hello. Thank you!”
“Sarah took great care of my kitties. Unfortunately one of my cats became ill right before I left on vacation, and Sarah did a great job with the extra care around medicine and diet changes. She was great about sending updates and communication. One of my cats is really timid and she warned right up to Sarah.”

About: I studied in the Veterinary Assisting program at Nashoba Valley Technical High School for 4 years, and graduated in 2025. During that time, I passed the TVMA Veterinary Assistant Certification (CVA) test. During this time, I became proficient in all of the skills a Veterinary Assistant would be expected to perform, and knowledgeable on relevant topics. I was also the recipient of the Certificate of Merit Achievement for Nashoba Tech’s Veterinary Assisting program. I had an amazing dog of my own who I loved and took care of for 10 years. I have also owned a guinea pig and taken care of numerous family cats throughout my life. I have been taking care of other people’s animals since I was 10 years old, watching the pets of family and friends. I am familiar with the care of all sorts of animals, not just limited to typical household pets. I have a lot of experience with animals with unique needs. My skills include fear free restraint and general handling, wound treatment, administration of medication, providing proper enrichment, and use of CPR. Here are some of the relevant certifications I have received: RESCUE- Veterinary Infection Preventionist Certification (September 2022) OSHA 10-hour Veterinary Certification (June 2022) Fear Free Certification (February 2023) Some of my other achievements: Recipient of the 2023 Massachusetts Student Achievement Award Member of the National Honors Society and National Technical Honors Society Selected attendee of 2023 MIAA Student Leadership Conference If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am working part time as a doordasher, babysitter, and house cleaner, and my schedule is very adaptable. I prefer to schedule things at least two weeks in advance to keep a neat schedule. The farther out you book with me the more likely I am to be available, but I will still try my best to fit things in if they’re last minute. I take special care to ensure the animals I care for feel comfortable around me and are comfortable in their own homes. I always make sure to clean up after the animals and myself.
“Jamie is great! As her profile shows she has a great understanding of cats. She knows how to approach them, their behaviors, and what to look out for. My cats warmed up to her instantly. Her knowledge is apparent in her notes which are detailed. She was able to get even better pictures of them than me. She was easy to work with and has an overall bright personality. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to other pet parents.”
“As always, *excellent * care for my kitty. He got his shot without noticing and Rachael cleaned his ears too! I thought he was going to just nod off in her arms. Such good care! A+ :)”

I am very reliable and dedicated and i hope to meet and care for your dogs and cats soon! I currently am not working which means i have so much time to care for your babies! Love working and getting to meet your dogs and cats! I’ll always treat them like my own. I will take great care of your pets while staying at your homes! I'll give them so much love as if they are my own and give them cuddles and play time! I hope to become their best friend while staying with them!
“Megan was absolutely the best!!! She took such great care of my pets, treating them with love and respect! I knew they were in the best care for the whole week I was away. I loved the photos and notes she sent, it made being away from my pets much easier. My cats absolutely loved her!!!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and currently care for three cats and a dog of my own, so I’m no stranger to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and the occasional pet with a mind of its own. I also regularly care for my grandmother’s cats whenever she’s away, giving me experience looking after pets that aren’t my own. I know every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy and comfortable. Whether your pet wants an adventure, a game of fetch, or just someone to relax with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet has a great time. I work for USPS, but I keep my Rover calendar updated so you’ll always know when I’m available. On my days off and during my free time, I love spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’ll be there on time and make sure they receive the care, exercise, and affection they deserve. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special routines. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I'm a veteran providing daycare and boarding, walking and house sitting depending on the dog and owner. The day is generally filled with canine adventures including hikes in a forest and hills, and in the summer, play in dog friendly areas which might even include a pool party and ice cream social! Given the right environment and only with your permission, this can include off-leash time. Pickup and drop-off is almost always available. The quoted price is for a 15 mile range. Extra if farther. ----- Since I was 4, I've been caring for all kinds of animals, especially dogs. At one time as a kid, we had 4 Great Danes! I've had mixed breeds and purebreds, athletes and couch potatoes, puppies, seniors, and special needs. I've also trained them although I've never been certified. Something common that friends say after their dog has spent a week or more with me is "how come my dog is now better behaved?" Your neighborhood or mine, the local park, the dog park, or on dog friendly trails. One dog or many. Having had all kinds of pets, including a 23 year old cat who required daily fluids and Miralax because of kidney failure and old cat dry colon, a dog that suffered seizures, and others. I even had a big 7 pound black and white adult rabbit that I found dumped in the state forest; she was litter box trained, had the run of the house, used the big dog crate as her private home, and would take turns playing with and chasing the 93 pound dog. I've just always seemed to understand dogs in particular and vice versa. The same is usually true with other animals as well. I even enjoy caring for dogs that are hyper! Just let me know first in case I've got low energy dogs with me. What you can expect: Boarding and daycare are usually canine adventure time with me. Assuming your pooch is up for it, they'll accompany us on an adventure where they usually are able to play with other dogs, swim, and go on hikes. When the weather doesn't cooperate, that usually means pack walks somewhere like Lowes or somewhere else inside. If your dog tends to be stressed around other dogs and not well socialized, they'll have fun, learn that they are safe and can enjoy themselves while learning to be social and resilient. This is also great for improving their fitness and overall health. I work remotely, set my schedule, and nothing makes me happier that being with and doing things with dogs. Dog park? Trails? It's field trip and adventure time, if your beast is up for it. Play dates? Why not! Up for playing with my dog who is vaccinated for probably everything and wants to chase and be chased? Not a problem. Special needs or a senior? Just let me know. I have a fenced yard and a happy, boisterous 6 year old, 57 pound dog who adjusts his play style to what other dogs like. If he's too much for your dog, he takes correction from them, no problem, or I can put them in different places. He even lets little dogs beat him up without protest and if your dog likes rough play, he'll accomodate. He's happy and loves people and dogs. He has zero resource guarding issues; if your's does, he'll give them space.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Westford
Kristen has watched our fur babies a couple times over the past few months when our regular pet sitter wasnt available. Both times were somewhat last minute and we would have been in a tough spot without her. We appreciated her responsiveness and communication. She took great care of our dog and cat, including adding an extra visit when our trip was unexpectedly longer than planned.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 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.

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.
