About: I have loved and cared for dogs since I was a child. My family dog was part of my life from when I was young until she passed away at 16 years old, so I understand how important pets are to a family. I have experience feeding, walking, and playing with dogs, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also have three pets of my own, but they are currently living with my family while I am living in Massachusetts. I work part-time and have flexible availability for dog walking and pet care. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, and routines. I am patient and attentive and always treat pets with kindness and respect in their home.
“Ann has helped me with my two kitties on 3 occasions now, and she is GREAT! She's excellent at keeping me posted on when she will arrive and then let's me know when she leaves after feeding them and cleaning out their litter pan. I have held back in the past on taking trips here and there but I now feel very comfortable that my boys will be well taken care of by Ann when I'm away. Thanks, Ann!!”
“Kelly has been caring for our cats when we travel for years now. They run right to her when she stops by to pick up the house key. Kelly sends several great pics of every visit, a daily delight. Upon returning home, we find the cats well fed and happy, and the house (& litter boxes) in good order. We are most grateful for her care. Highly recommend!”
“Kiari was wonderful and timely. She was communicative throughout her time with our dog. She was also so kind and attentive to our dog. I would highly recommend her!”
“I’ve lost count how many times I’ve rebooked with Alison because she’s so great!! She sends the best updates and photos and I always feel at ease knowing she’s checking on my Millie ♥️”
About: I've loved taking care of animals since I was a child, starting with my first pets - parakeets named Larry Bird and Miss Piggy. They were followed by rabbits, a beagle and primarily for the last few years, cats. I'm currently providing doggy day care for a neighbor during the week. I'm currently looking after my father and can easily take care of your pups during the morning, afternoons or early evenings. My availability is very flexible. I live in a condominium community, which is largely quiet with plenty of great places to walk (fields, trails and a designated dog park nearby).
About: I have always had a love for all pets and have always had dogs in my family home ! I always look foward to meeting new furry friends and caring for them as if they were my own ! I’m currently not working at the time and with the weather slowly warming up I have a lot of free time to walk your pups , play ,etc ! Keeping your pets safe is my number 1 priority! I don’t have a yard unfortunately but a lot of parks and trails along Quinsigamond where I live along with a great field that I go to often with my dog and great neighbors with great dogs !
About: I bring a gentle, vet‑tech‑in‑training approach to dogs, focusing on routines, comfort, and positive energy. There isn't a breed or size that intimidates me, I love all furry-friends the same. I’m not working right now, and during the fall semester I’ll be in classes Monday through Friday from 8am–4pm. Outside of school hours, I have plenty of time for pet care, and I may also work part‑time at the vet hospital on weekends. I keep my schedule organized so I can give your pet consistent attention and care. My apartment is fully pet‑proofed with no access to harmful materials like toxic plants or trash. I also have access to a large enclosed dog park at my apartment for safe outdoor time. I like to know your pet’s veterinarian as a precaution, so I can make sure I’m prepared and informed while caring for them.
About: I am a reliable dog sitter for friends and family. I owned 2 of my own dogs in the past, a boxer and cocker spaniel mix. I have a pretty flexible/varied schedule. Please send me a message and we can definitely work something out to fit the needs of your pet! Whichever directions or specifications you have for your pet I will always do my best to follow them! I do not offer home services at the moment.
“We had such a wonderful experience with Tracy. They took amazing care of our pets and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our pets were happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Asia did an amazing job watching our kitties while we were gone. She took our diabetic cat’s blood glucose reading and administered his insulin. She went above and beyond to make them comfortable while we were gone. She also sent me detailed summaries of each visit with adorable pictures. I would definitely recommend Asia!”
About: Ever since I was a child, I have excelled in feeding, walking, and taking care of dogs, including our family pet. Can also distribute medication. I'm currently working full-time, but I will have plenty of opportunities to pop in so I can feed, play with, and check on your pet! I am very organized and responsible, with a clean background check and significant experience in caring for other people's pets, especially while they are away.
About: Hello! My name is Rylee, i currently own two cats but have been a previous owner to a pitbull adopted from my local shelter. My dog was unfortunately abused as a puppy and had some behavioral issues so I am very use to dealing with these types of dogs. Although I have not owned a dog since, I love all my friends and families dogs dearly. I will be more than happy to provide toys or treats your dog enjoys to have fun while away from home! I treat every dog like it’s my own and will always reach out with any questions or concerns while they are in my care. I have frequent experience dog sitting for my aunt’s two dogs, four cats along with taking care of their fish. I also have experience with administering oral and topical medication to dogs that I have pet sat for and following specific feeding routines. Please feel free to message me to talk about caring for your furry friends! I currently work a full time job but that does not stop me from helping out your pets! I will likely do better with an animal that can manage 6-8 hours without being let out during weekdays. Weekends that I have open availability, your pet will get my full attention! I am more than open to staying in the home to help accommodate your pet and make them comfortable while you’re away! I like to stick as close as possible to your average daily routine with your pets to make things easy for you and them! When staying in peoples homes I am very conscious of keeping things clean and tidy and helping out with other things such as watering plants, bringing in the mail, putting out the trash and making sure things are secure as I come and go!
“Andreana was once again amazing in taking care of our sweet Lady, but also a very rambunctious puppy! With all the updates and pictures, my wife and I felt assured both dogs were being well cared for.”
“Highly recommend! Grace took great care of Reese over the long weekend, providing regular updates and making sure she was happy and well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands”
About: I'm a nature enthusiast and lifelong animal lover. My interest in pet care started at 12, walking my neighbors' dogs for candy, and by 13 I was volunteering at my local animal hospital. Since then, I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I am free most week days after/early before work & weekends. I’d prefer not to be out past dark depending on the area & visibility at night. I have no pets of my own at home so your companion will have my undivided attention! I pay very close attention to detail and follow directions well so i can provide whatever kind of care you need & treat your fur baby like my own!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Worcester
Kelly took great care of our pet, took plenty of pictures and kept us in the loop and gave us peace of mind when we needed to go at a time when our pet was feeling a little under the weather. Would highly recommend Kelly to take care of your pets. Thanks again Kelly!
Mary checked in on my cats while I was away on vacation. Mary is wonderful with even the shyest of cats! She sent pictures daily and sent updates about all of my pets, with info on meals and liter box use. Even my shyest cat Salem came down to see her! My mind was at ease while I was away knowing my pets are being well taken care of.
Asia was so wonderful our entire trip giving us tons of photos every update and keeping us up to date on Ebi’s behavior, mood, bathroom habits, and she even checked in on our gecko Benny’s light each day to make sure he wasn’t cold. Her experience as a vet tech really set our hearts at ease, and she asked great questions during our meet and greet before the trip. Ebi felt completely safe in her hands and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her first the next time we need a pet sitter!
I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! Alison was communicative and sent plenty of updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved spending time with them. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone!
Lupia was able to care for both of my dogs on last second notice. Lupia had not seen them for about a year and a half, however despite this she still remembered exactly how to care for and interact with them. ( She also takes phenomenal pictures of them). They were ecstatic to see her and I can't thank her enough for being an incredible dog-sitter.
Hannah was wonderful with Maisie! Despite the pouring rain, she took Maisie out for a walk and play time and was patient while she waited for her to go potty. Hannah was extremely communicative before, during and after the visit. We are so happy to have found Hannah and have already booked out next visit!
Rebecka has been taking care of our large lab for about a year (4 days a week). She has always been kind, responsible, and communicative with us and has been so loving and caring for a big goofy boy. We knew very quickly she genuinely loved him and would do anything for him. We absolutely trusted her and wish she could have stayed our pet sitter (unfortunately we moved away). Additionally, Arlo is a big strong boy and she was able to handle him no problem. She is definitely experienced with caring for animals and we would recommend her to anyone! Thank you so much Rebecka, we will miss you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Worcester on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,317 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Worcester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Worcester 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Worcester. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
