âYingying and her family took such wonderful and thoughtful care of Max! He was a spoiled and happy boy while staying with them. Highly recommend and would happily rebook in the future.â

About: I've owned many animals from reptiles to cats and dogs. I have a Finnish Spitz who would be crated most of the day and separate from your dog. I love animals and will happily take great care of yours. I work from home, I'm in a neighborhood that's ideal for dog walks. I have a fenced in yard but I keep my dog on leash in the backyard. I have cared for dogs for years and will be sure yours is safe and cared for. I'd prefer good instructions on how your dog's routine is at home, so I can easily meet their needs with me.

We knew our dog was safe, happy, and loved during his time there! We had such peace of mind on our trip knowing he was in great hands. Thank you again!â

âNancy is very kind, loving and caring. My dog is old and timid and Nancy handled her care with exactly what my dog needed. Nancy is very gentle. I would highly recommend Nancy.â
About: Iâve been around dogs my entire life, it has always been a pleasure watching pets for my friends and family and I have two of my own, an Alaskan Malamute and a mixed rescue. I like to bring them out to nature to sniff new places and fun activities. Iâve also volunteered as a foster for the MSPCA, including for puppy litters. After adopting Raven, I completed the MSPCAâs shy dog training to support her as a fearful dog and she has done amazing progress. I have been pet sitting and boarding for years, some of them along my own dogs as I put some pictures below. Iâm comfortable working with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and behaviors, including the ones that need extra patience and reassurance. I understand that every dog has their own routine and comfort level, and my goal is to get to know them individually to make walks and drop-in visits a safe, positive experience! I work regular business hours usually, but my schedule varies and allows for flexibility throughout the week, especially when planning ahead, my partner also supports our dogs at home. I do my best effort to accommodate different schedules and individual needs. I value clear communication regarding what usually works for your pup, as we know itâs out of the petâs routine to have someone else tend to them and I want it to be a comfortable and safe experience. I always pay attention to body language, their boundaries and surroundings to create a safe and positive experience. My own dogs are crate-trained and I am comfortable handling multiple dogs on a leash. I follow their established routines and provide owners with many updates as I would like someone handling my pups to do.
âBetsy was a great sitter - very thorough and careful in getting to know my dogâs preferences and letting him see her very nice home and yard! Easy to communicate with and my pup seemed super happy :)â
âSara was an absolute delight! Warm and welcoming, my large breed pup did great with her and her two dogs; I received regular, daily updates with pics. I will be utilizing her services in the future!â
âYang has a wonderful caring family that loves animals. My dog can be scared and nervous about new people and other dogs but he loved Yang and her family. Because of my dogâs behavior, she agreed to do a trial stay. I appreciate how Yang kept me updated on how my dog is doing.â

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Westford can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dogâs usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Westford home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Westford.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westford. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
You and your Westford sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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.
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 Justiceâs 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, youâre adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. Youâll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
