“Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.”

“We are new to the Northeast and planned a trip out of the country for our anniversary. Dustin was very responsive from the beginning. He came to the house prior to meet our pups and get a scope of the house. He kept us informed of their well being with pictures and even made Henry's birthday special while we were gone. He also took great care of the house. Dustin will definitely be our first reserve on future travels. We know both the pups and the house are in great hands.”

“Allie was awesome! She asked all the right questions from someone watching your puppies and staying at your home. She did a great job and sent plenty of pics to show my puppies were happy and taken care of. I would highly recommend her”


“Beverly was awesome. This was the first time we were away from our 150lb mastiff puppy and we were worried about him. Bev made us very comfortable during the meet and greet and communicated with us up until the the sit started to ensure she had all the details and care instructions. On the day of the sit she showed up right on time and settled in before we had to leave, so the puppies would get used to her being in the house. During the next few days she took wonderful care of our furbabies. She played with them and cuddled with them when they were moping and was persistent about trying to get them to eat. Pretty soon they were following her around everywhere. She sent us a lot of pictures of them and the house was immaculately clean when we got back. We would love for her to care for our babies again in the future.”

“I cannot express to you the patience and care Sara took to care for my highly anxious fur babies! My dogs were in shock to not have me there, but Sara patiently won them over with slow, quiet steps. She kept me informed about every angle of progress. The most important thing about Sara was her ability to calmly let my girls get used to her presence, and I was kept informed whether something she did worked or not. If one thing didn't work, she was right back to try another way to gain their trust. Sara made my trip (for a funeral) less painful and I will ABSOLUTELY ask her to watch my babies again!!! She also took fantastic care of my house!!”

About: About Me: Your Dog's Next Best Friend 🐾 All my life, my world has revolved around four-legged family members. I’ve been caring for dogs since before I could even walk, and I’ve long been the go-to pet sitter for my entire family. I truly understand that every dog has a unique personality and their own special way of showing affection. For me, pet sitting isn't just a job—I love spending quality time building trust, learning your dog's unique signals, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you're away. Services I Offer Whether you need a quick check-in or full-day care, I've got you covered: Drop-In Visits & Feedings: Keeping your pup's routine perfectly on track. All-Day Pet Sitting: Dedicated, full-day companionship and care. Adventure Walks (My Specialty!): Perfect for high-energy dogs or pups who love to explore. 🌲 My Specialty: The "Daily Adventure" Walk If your dog loves the great outdoors, they will love staying with me! I walk my own dog between 3 to 6 miles a day, exploring local trails and discovering new environments. I believe that changing up walking routes keeps a dog mentally stimulated and deeply engaged. By turning a standard bathroom break into a fresh adventure, your pup stays excited, happy, and pleasantly tired out by the time you get home. Ready to level up your fur-baby's daily activity? I’m the reliable, active, and loving sitter you’ve been looking for. Let’s connect and chat about your pup's routine! I currently work part time so there is plenty of time in my schedule to take care of your fur baby! I can walk and feed your pets in the morning and will be back in time to take care of them in the evening! Hey pet parents! I’m an active, outdoor-loving pet sitter who specializes in turning boring workdays into mini-adventures for your pup. If you have a dog with energy to burn, I’m your person! From brisk cardio walks to interactive playtime that keeps their minds sharp, I make sure your dog gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need to be calm and relaxed by the time you get home. I offer dedicated dog walking and pet sitting services tailored entirely to your routine. I understand safety is a big concern for every pet owner. I always include real-time photo updates during every visit. If there is ever an emergency I will always call and let the owner know. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own.
“Brittany did 2 night house/dog sitting for my senior blind dog. She was very nice, communicative, and sent photos - no complaints here! One thing I really appreciated: there is a large gap in the day between feedings so informed her a head of time that she may leave for a bit like 1-4 hrs if needed for errands, appointments, etc (she did not ask! I came out with this and usually tell sitters this). I just dont want my dog alone all day and night as I work from home and am always here, and I do not want too much in and out or just walk ins. Closer to the scheduled sitting, she kindly let me know she would need to step out briefly which I confirmed was still fine. Without me asking her to do so, she messaged me when she left with expected time of return and messaged me when she officially returned”

“My husband & I were really nervous to have someone house sit, but not only was Ryan awesome with our Yorkie & Fox Terrier but we returned to a clean house. He followed all of our well & gave daily reports on our fur-babies. Thanks so much Ryan!!”

“Stefanie was amazing. She sent daily updates and was friendly and genuinely seemed to enjoy taking care of our dog. We will book her again, for sure, if she is available. Thanks Stefanie!”

“Tim is the best dog and house sitter in the world. He’s become a good friend of ours because he treats our dog as his own, and cares for our home like it’s his. He is truly the best human, and pup watcher.”

“My husband and I have had Mikaela watch our 1 year old Golden Retriever in our house for two separate weekend trips. She’s took great care of our pup and gave plenty of updates. She also left the house spotless both times. I would highly recommend her!!”

“Caitlin was fantastic! Our pets absolutely loved her, she shared plenty of photos and updates during the short stayl Couldn't ask for more and we'll definitely be using her again.”

“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She met our dog beforehand to form a connection, she transported him to and from his kennel, she treated him like one of her own, and she sent tons of photos and videos. I felt so at peace knowing that Taylor was taking great care of him. I’m so glad we found Taylor!!”

“Natalia was incredible! She took amazing overnight care of our rescue pup with separation anxiety. Throughout the booking process and the period our dog was in Natalia’s care, she was warm, responsive, and accommodating. I can’t recommend Natalia enough!!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life and have owned five dogs over the years. I have experience with Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, Dachshunds, Terriers, and Chiweenies. Having cared for dogs throughout my life, I understand how to properly care for our four-legged companions and am committed to ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well looked after. I am available Friday through Sunday, as well as before and after my college classes Monday through Thursday. I also have flexibility around my part-time job at a food restaurant, allowing me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your four-legged companions. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I live near two dog parks in a walkable area, making it easy to provide your four-legged companion with plenty of exercise when needed. I also have a variety of dog toys to keep them entertained and engaged. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will bring dog waste bags and a few of their favorite toys—or some of my own—to ensure they have a fun and comfortable experience.
“Joanna was great! She gave the perfect amount updates on my greyhound, Minerva while we were away and she kept our house super neat and clean. Minerva was so relaxed when we got home so we know she had a great weekend too! Would highly recommend!”
“Brooke took wonderful care of our two dogs. From start to finish, Brooke was so professional and communicative. We received regular updates (with pictures), which was so appreciated while we were away. It’s clear they were very loved which makes us very happy!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Worcester on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,595 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Worcester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Worcester 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 Worcester 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.
Tip: 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 Worcester 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!
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.
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
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
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
