About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I adjust my care to match their energy levels, medical needs, and routines. I'm available for boarding on the weekends and any night after 4 pm. There will always be a trusted adult at home to keep your furry friend happy and cared for! I have a fenced in yard and a border collie living at home. He is extremely friendly and his best friend is my brother's teacup Yorkie, so he gets along with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments!
“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. 😊”

“Mary was super responsive and took excellent care of Monty on her drop in visits. He was a little anxious and she allayed his fears admirably. The pictures we so adorable. Thank you, Mary!”

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: Hello! I am a stay at home mom with a 1 year old and a 3 year old who is looking to help out dog sitting while I pause my nursing career. I have a 1.5 year old yellow lab named Callie who is a sweetheart and loves to play with other dogs. Both kids are very respectful of dogs since they both have a lot of experience with ours. I look forward to meeting your dog or cat-happy to give references and chat! The first half of my photos are all dogs I dogsat through Rover and some of my own dogs! I am currently a stay at home mom with a 1 and 3 year old so I have a lot of flexibility. We spend a lot of time outside which would include any dog we are sitting for. We have a large yard and our home is dog proof (mainly due to having a baby hah). I treat every dog like it’s part of the family-he or she is allowed to come on the bed, couch, etc.
About: My name is Thalia and I’m ready to make your pup feel like they’re one of my own. I provide a safe and welcoming environment to make your pet feel right at home. I work from home, so I can be there for your pet daily or weekly. I can provide your pet with frequent potty breaks and walks as well as allow time for play. I always make sure my pets are safe inside my home. Providing them with fresh clean water and a safe place to have their meals. Pets are allowed on the furniture in my home and I have various dog beds throughout my home.
About: I have had dogs for 20 years and will treat your dogs like my own. Will accommodate requests as much as possible for your family. https://www.rover.com/sit/micheb79651 I am available for drop in visits for walks, can fix any special food if needed and give oral medication. Every visit will include time to sit and visit. I will always walk dogs on leash and take extra time to care for your dog like my own. I can crate if needed for your dog.
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.

“Hannah is so sweet and did a wonderful job with my cat. I really appreciated that she was able to get pictures each day even though my cat was so shy and always hiding :). Thank you so much!! I would definitely book Hannah again as a cat sitter.”

About: Hi, I’m Jay! If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, you’ve come to the right place. Animals have been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and everything in between, and I truly believe every pet deserves personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a cuddle buddy, playtime, meals, medication, a bath, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’m here to help! Long haired pups or kitties that hate being brushed? No problemo! I’m happy to tackle the fluff so you don’t have to. 😊 One thing that sets me apart is that I’m constantly learning. I love researching animal behavior, enrichment, nutrition, and the best ways to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours feel safe and comfortable. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your best friend with someone else, so I’ll care for your baby like they’re my own. You can expect plenty of updates, adorable photos, and the peace of mind that your furry, feathered, or scaly family member is in loving hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your bestie! 🤍 Caring for pets has always been part of my daily routine. I attend college so I’m able to give your babies attention, care, and playtime before class, in between, and during study time! I’m used to keeping a consistent routine with my own cats and making sure they’re fed, comfortable, and cared for. I only accept bookings that fit my schedule so I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make the experience easy for both you and your pet. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll send lots of updates and pictures (because I know I’d want them too!) so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind. Whether your pet is super energetic, a little shy, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m very detail oriented and always pay attention to things like securely closing doors and gates, keeping dogs safely leashed on walks, and making sure your pet is happy and comfortable. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and feel confident that they were treated like family while you were away.
About: I’ve always been an animal person and will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. I can relax with them, walk around your neighborhood with them, play with them- whatever they need. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visits to check in on your dogs, ensuring they have food, water, and plenty of attention while you are away. I will take both, your needs and your best friends’ into account and accommodate the best way I can to ensure I am providing what works for you and your pup.
About: Hi! I'm Alicia, and I'll love your pets like they're my own. I've been a professional pet sitter for 7 years, caring for dogs, cats, and more of every age, size, and personality. I offer in-home care — overnight stays, dog walks, and drop-in visits — so your pets stay where they're happiest: at home with their own bed and routine. No kennel stress, just a new friend showing up with treats and belly rubs. I'm comfortable with medications, senior pets, and special needs, and as a rescue dog mom myself, I know what it means to trust someone with your best friend. That's why every new client gets a free meet-and-greet first — so your pet can decide if they like me (they will!). Message me anytime — I'd love to meet your furry family! I work weekdays (typically 9-5 or 1-9 shifts), so here's how my care fits around your pet's day: Overnight stays: Before I leave for work, your pet gets breakfast, a walk or potty break, and some playtime to burn off energy. When I'm back, the rest of the evening is all theirs — dinner, walks, play, and plenty of cuddles through the night. Weekends: I'm all yours! No day job on weekends means full availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnights. Walks & drop-in visits: Available around my weekday shifts and anytime on weekends. Please book in advance — I can't usually accommodate same-day requests, but with a little notice I'll make it work! The more notice, the better — especially for holidays. Message me and we'll find a schedule that keeps your pet happy and comfortable! Your pet's safety is always my top priority. Since I care for pets in your home, they stay in the environment where they feel safest — surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and routines. I follow your instructions to the letter: feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, house rules, and any quirks your pet has. Dogs are always leashed and wearing secure collars or harnesses on walks, and I double-check doors, gates, and windows before and after every visit so there's never a chance of an escape. With 7 years of experience and daily work around animals, I'm attentive to the small stuff — changes in appetite, energy, or behavior that might signal something's wrong. I'll always keep you informed with updates and photos, and I'll contact you right away if anything ever seems off. Your home is treated with the same respect as your pet: I keep things clean and tidy, and your keys and entry information stay secure. You can relax knowing both your pet and your home are in careful, trustworthy hands.

Working in this environment has taught me how to read body language, manage multiple dogs safely, and respond calmly in any situation. 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! Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me; it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved, secure, and cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member!

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.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Westford 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 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.
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 .

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 Westford 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.
