“Ria was an amazing sitter for us when we left for an international trip for our cat Lily. She takes so many adorable photos and videos that we loved watching while we were away. She was incredibly descriptive with her check-ins and was great with Lily and making sure she checked with us about her feeding habits etc to make sure what was normal for her. We’re so lucky to have found her as we just recently moved to the area and needed a new cat sitter- thanks so much Ria!”

About: I’ve always loved animals, dogs in particular, and have experience caring for pets for family and friends. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know every pets personality. I will treat your dog as if they are my own and be sure they feel special, loved, happy, and well cared for! Pet care fits really well into my daily routine. I am able to give them my attention in the early morning, around lunchtime, and again at dinner time. However, I have more flexibility on the weekends. I am more than happy to work with your schedule when I can and I’ll always make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. It’s really important to me that you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in my care. I will follow their normal routine, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they’re safe at all times. I would also love to stay in touch while you are gone by sending pictures and videos so you can see how they’re doing!

“Thank you Tom!! Appreciate you taking such great care of our pups! Especially our distinguished elder 15 year old. The feedback gave us great comfort that they were being well cared for while we couldn’t be there. Thank you!!”

About: As a lifetime dog lover and owner, your dog will be in good hands here. I have fostered and provided basic training to over 14 puppies in the past year and I remain close with almost all of the adopters. I have two hound/ lab mix rescues - Spencer is 8 YO and Peaches is 7 MO. Both were rescued at almost 4 months old and both are neutered and spayed. Our household (me, my husband, our HS Senior, and our pups) loves dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperments. We (our dogs included) understand how to read cues and body language and respond appropriately. My promise to you and your fur babies are that they will have plenty of walks, indoor/ outdoor playtime, potty breaks as needed and as frequently as every 30 min, training and mental stimulation games, water, a comfortable space to rest, and as their health and well being are my top priority, they will have adult supervision at all times. I will only board dogs of the same household in my home at one time. The exception to this is if they are already known friends. Communication is important - tell me their likes, dislikes, known commands, feeding schedules, dietary/ physical restrictions, medication needs, etc. and I will ensure to follow the rules and schedules of your home. I will send plenty of updates and pics and if needed I am happy to give baths and nail trims — if they don't mind them. I guarantee your dogs will return home happy. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Training commands I practice regularly are sit, lay down, paw, wait, come, short leash training, and potty training. Spencer and Peaches have proven to be great trainers as well! During meet and greets or via messages I can share what I have for toys, treats, bath time shampoo, pet conditioner, nail trims, etc. I'm happy to use what you provide as well. My schedule is currently very flexible. The majority of my work is remote. As I work towards my next business venture, I would like to continue my passion of working with dogs using positive reinforcement. I have a large yard surrounded by woods in a quiet community. When dogs are in the yard they have leashes on them unless they have good recall as the yard is not fenced. I will always be outside with them with a pouch full of treats. I also have a gated porch to ensure dogs can enjoy time sitting on the porch and will not escape into the yard when we open the slider. Walks in the neighborhood and on trails are always on leash. If your dog is accustomed to the Chelmsford dog park, I would be happy to bring them there as well once I get to know them. I use adjustable doggy seatbelts while driving. I will only bring two dogs max. Feeding schedule is two or three times per day depending on each dogs schedule. They will eat alongside of my dogs or they can have their own space to eat without distractions. I have two large crates with a divider to create a smaller space if needed. Most dogs have full access to the main first floor. The upstairs is available to fully trained dogs after getting to know them better. I have multiple gates to block access to rooms when needed. I get to know all dogs I board by communicating with their owners and with close frequent observation. I ere on the side of caution, test in small increments in safe quiet settings, building trust and increasing freedom accordingly with the best intentions to ensure their safety and security. New high value dog bones are prohibited while boarding. I have plenty of safe, dog friendly bones and toys here that I'm sure will keep your pup(s) happy.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and grew up caring for everything from cats and dogs to rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs, reptiles, chickens, and goats! I also volunteer at an animal shelter, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I started pet sitting after losing one of my soul cats as a way to heal while doing something I truly love. Caring for animals brings me so much joy, so this is more than just a job to me. My goal is simple: to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved like one of my own. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I’m home throughout the day and have plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and lots of attention. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends and holidays, and love having furry company while I work! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I try to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions while providing plenty of playtime, attention, cuddles, and outdoor time based on their individual needs. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and a large yard for supervised outdoor time. My goal is always to make your fur baby feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
“Emily was so wonderful with taking care of our cat and dog! She provided great updates with lots of details and photos, and we could relax on our trip knowing our pets were getting lots of attention and love. 😊”


About: Having grown up surrounded by animals, I have a lifetime of hands-on experience in animal care. From helping my mom with dog boarding to caring for horses, I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal needs and behaviors.

I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own—like part of the family. Whether they’re staying in my home or yours, I focus on providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I make sure to stick to their routines, offer plenty of playtime, and provide affection to keep them feeling happy and secure.

About: Hello there! I'm CJ, and I'm here to take care of your pets! I'm a huge dog lover, with 9 years of experience. I have experience with puppies, small, medium, and large-sized dogs. I live in Westford, MA and am willing to travel 15-20 miles to watch your pup. Personally, I have a Yellow Labrador Retriever. I'm very active, outgoing, friendly, and would love to meet your furry pal. I'd go hiking, running (if permitted) and take him/her on various walking trails! I'm available the most on weekends but would be up to dog walking/house sitting on weeknights as well. Hope to hear from you soon, please don't hesitate to reach out! I’m always exercising and being active which fits perfectly into my routine. I look forward to new clients to walk and to incoporate into my schedule. When I take care of pets in my home I make sure they’re always safe, and I have a big fenced in yard for them to play in.
“Philip did a wonderful job taking care of my senior cat while I was away. He was always communicative, keeping me updated and making me feel confident that she was in good hands. He made sure she was fed on schedule and that all of her food, water, and litter were kept clean. It was clear that he genuinely cared about her well-being, and I truly appreciated the attention and kindness he showed. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
About: Hi there! As a lifelong dog owner, five year dog foster parent, and amateur trainer, I'm excited to offer my services to you and your furry friend. I know how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I grew up with Boxers and currently have a high-energy Pitbull-German Shepherd mix. Through my experience fostering rescues and working with my own dogs on basic obedience and fun tricks, I've developed a passion for dog training. I'm always excited to teach new skills and help your pup become the best they can be. While I haven't worked professionally as a dog walker before, my experience with dogs and fostering has given me the confidence to work with a variety of breeds. I'm reliable, attentive, and will treat your furry friend like one of my own. Let's make sure your pup gets the exercise and attention they need for a happy and healthy life. Contact me today to learn more! I currently attend graduate school full time and have availability primarily during the work week. I am most flexible in the mornings and late afternoon. On walks I am attentive to the needs of each individual dog. Some dogs like to spend their walk time taking in all the smells and enjoying the sunshine. Other dogs prefer a more vigorous walk or jog. Either way, I individualize each walk to the needs of the dog. Safety is my number one concern. I will keep your dog on a leash and within my control the entire time. I will never put them in a compromising situation such as greeting strangers or other dogs.
About: As a lifelong pet owner and proud beagle mom, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your fur baby. Growing up with pets my whole life has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, and what makes each pet feel safe and loved. I treat every dog I care for like my own — with patience, affection, and plenty of playtime. You can expect frequent photo updates and a happy, well-cared-for pup when you get home! As someone who works from home full time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches — I'm always nearby for cuddles, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I structure my work schedule around the pets in my care, ensuring they get regular walks, meals, and plenty of attention. Your pet will feel right at home! I'm comfortable caring for pets in both my home and yours, though I prefer to stay in your home so your pet can remain in their familiar environment with their own toys, bed, and routine. I believe pets are happiest and least stressed when they stay in a space they already know and love. In your home, I treat everything with the utmost respect — leaving it exactly as I found it. If hosting in my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and cozy environment where your pet will feel comfortable and loved. I'm attentive to pet-proofing, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and always supervising playtime. Your pet's safety is my number one priority!
About: I have taken care of friends and neighbors dogs for years, as well as my childhood dog. I have also volunteered at the local dog shelter for years. I have a dog of my own, and if your dog is socialized they can be play buddies! I currently have a part time job so my schedule is very flexible and open! I can try my best to work with your schedule. I am open to whatever environment your pet feels most comfortable in and am willing to do whatever is needed for them to be comfortable.

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.

About: I’ve been in the animal care field since 2022 and have done a little bit of just about everything! Food and Supply sales, assistant grooming, dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. In addition, I'm currently pursuing my associate's degree in animal care and have a wonderful 1-year-old lab/pitbull mix named Judy! I’m currently working part time as a dog walker, so my availability will be weekdays after 4PM until 10PM, and 8AM to 6PM on weekends (weekend sittings are available for full days on Sat/Sun) My yard unfortunately isn’t fenced in, so I always make sure my dogs are leashed and are wearing their collars with AirTags just in case. I don’t board dogs at my house due to the yard having no fence. When walking other dogs I always double clip their leash to their harness and collar.

About: As a dedicated dog lover and experienced pet owner who has raised two dogs, I treat every furry friend with the same level of care, respect, and unconditional love as my own.

About: Hi! I’ve loved dogs and animals for as long as I can remember.

Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I genuinely love what I do — I’ve always been the kind of person who picks animals over people!

Dog 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.

- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

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 Westford 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.

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 .
