“Kerri stayed with our two dogs for almost a week while we were overseas. She did a wonderful job. Our dogs were well taken care of and they both adore her. She was able to give them their morning meds which was greatly appreciated. She communicates clearly and timely, and as a result, we had a relaxing and stress-free vacation! Thank you, Kerri!”
“Jasmine, you're awesome. Thanks for taking such great care of our home and pup for our nearly 2 week vacation. Your communication and care are much appreciated! We look forward to working with you again in the future. If you are looking for a wonderful reliable pet sitter Jasmine is a great choice!”
“Andrew accommodated a last minute request from me, which I fully appreciate. He was prompt and proactive in his communication, and he took good care of my puppy. Thank you!”
“Natalie took great care of our pets (cat and dog) and our home! She met with us in person prior to the sit, and provided several updates with photos everyday throughout the sit. We appreciate the care she took to ensure we would feel comfortable and confident during our time away from our pets and home. We would definitely welcome here again and highly recommend her for future pet care :)”
“Christy recently dog sat at our home for a week for our 7 year old mini doodle and we could not recommend her highly enough! She was reliable, communicative, responsive, great at expectation setting and clearly someone who genuinely loves caring for and spending time with pets. We knew our dog was in great hands with her and getting lots of love and attention. She even came to our home an extra time before our trip, to make sure our dog got to know and trust her. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would enthusiastically rebook with her in the future. Thank you, Christy!”
“Nicole was a lifesaver, our doggy developed some stomach issues right before my planned trip and Nicole was able to take care of her and even help me get her to her vet and start a care plan while I was away. Safe to say that she has my complete trust with my dog and there’s no one I would recommend more!”
“Tom was wonderful! Our dog is usually really nervous around strangers and we’re pretty used to coming home to a skinnier version of her but she seemed to really enjoy being around him. Would definitely ask him to look after them again.”
“Devika was prompt and personable and connected with my dog immediately. She kept me updated on his well-being and was great to work with. I had to unexpectedly find someone to watch my dog while I was out and was very lucky to find her.”
“Sydney was fantastic! She stayed at our apartment over a weekend to care for our dog. She sent pictures all weekend and was very responsive. This was our first time having someone do in-home pet care for us and we felt completely comfortable in her hands. I highly recommend her for in-home pet care!”
“Morgan is the best! I booked her very last minute for a Saturday after my arrangements for someone to watch my dog fell through. She responded immediately and arrived right on time for our appointment. She stayed with my senior Chihuahua mix all day on a Saturday and he loved her. I'm very attuned to my dog's moods and he was definitely in a better mood after spending the day with Morgan. She has a very kind and positive demeanor and the type of good energy that dogs pick up on. You can totally trust her with your fur children. I hope to use Morgan again in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Ana took great care of Charlie and was very communicative during our time away! She sent pictures, updates, and checked in with us to make sure Charlie's behaviors were normal and that he was settled in before we came home. Thanks so much Ana and hope to book again next time we're away! :)”
“Cat is such a trustworthy person, I never have to worry when she’s caring for my pets. I have used her multiple times and every time I am so thankful for her help.”
“Michelle was great! Our dog can be very shy and nervous. Michelle was able to gain my dogs confidence. She sent pictures and updates every day. I enjoyed my vacation knowing my dog Nellie was safe and comfortable. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Ashley took great care of my pup Sofie while I was out of town! Thanks Ashley for being so flexible, communicative and accepting to watch Sofie for me in such a short notice. :)”
“100% recommend. Best, best friend ever! Annette was delightful to work with. She was punctual, attentive and organized. She stayed with our pups for full 4 days and she was always in touch and feeding the animals the right medications and meals. On top of that she was organized and clean. Lastly, what we enjoyed the most is that our dogs seemed very happy and relaxed with her. She is a true find and look forward to working with her in the near future.”
About: Hey my name is Marina and I've loved animals since the day I was born. Large, small, slimy, or fluffy I love them all. Over the past 10 years I've volunteered for animal rescues across massachusetts. Working with animals from cats and dogs to alpacas and goats. I have training dealing with feral and shy cats as well as animals with an array of conditions requiring daily medication and intervention. Trusting someone with your fur babies is incredible hard, but know when your pet's with me your leaving them with someone who is guinely happy to be spending time with them. Hope to hear from you soon! I'm currently a full time pet sitter and dog walker. Animals are my life if im not volunteering im hanging out with my fur babies I'm fully understanding of many situations and circumstances. I'm always willing to adapt and to learn. Thats honestly the best part about working with animals is I'm always learning.
“Renee was attentive and consistent with her updates on Aurora. She provided all we asked for: food updates, picture updates and texts about how the visit was. We will definitely hire again in future!”

Another wonderful stay from Jamila! We always look forward to her spirited photos and commentary of her time with our pups. Updates come regularly twice a day with many pictures! Jamila always respects our training goals and house rules and spoils our pups with so much affection. We continue to be so grateful for her!
Great experience with Fran and Julia. They made us feel comfortable with our dog in their care, providing frequent and detailed updates and photos. I also appreciate how they took care of our home, leaving it clean and tidy when we returned. Thank you, Fran and Julia!
We've lost count of how many times Erin has watched Gus for us and will continue to have her do so if she will! She is reliable and flexible. We had some silly snafus during her stay and she worked with us to solve them. We always feel comfortable leaving our dog, Gus with her knowing he's in good hands!
Ashley was awesome. I am a very particular dog parent and my pup Ziggy has a lot of quirks. Ashley listened to every single one and helped me manage his allergies while I was gone during the week. Ashley is also super nice and easy to chat with, Ziggy loved her!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Woburn walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Woburn maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Woburn 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!

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.
