About: Hello, my name is Amanda! I’m an experienced and compassionate pet sitter with 10 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I’ve worked with puppies, senior dogs, and large breeds, and I’m comfortable watching multiple dogs at once while making sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I have experience administering oral medications, supporting dogs with special needs (including helping care for a blind dog), and adjusting care routines to fit each pet’s personality and abilities. Safety, patience, and clear communication are always my top priorities. In addition to dogs, I’ve also cared for cats and guinea pigs, so I’m happy to help out in multi-pet households. I am a dog groomer, which has strengthened my understanding of dog behavior, handling, and overall pet wellness. I am available most of the day. I am working as a dog groomer so when I am not working with a dog I am available for pet care! It easy to work my schedule around what a pet parent may need! I can easily crate your dog if needed. I will keep your animal in designated areas if directed to do so. I am comfortable walking any size dog or if you have a fenced in yard I can watch your dog there.

About: Ever since I was a child, I have always had a dog in my life in some capacity. I am very comfortable and very used to caring for the needs of a small dog. If you are looking for somebody who will create a unique care plan catered to your fur baby’s unique needs, look no further! I will be here to feed, water, bathe, play with, walk, and whatever else you may need your ideal pet sitter to do. I am comfortable with dogs 35 pounds and under. If you are ready to find the perfect caretaker for your sweet baby, reach out to me, and I look forward to meeting your pup! I am currently a stay at home mom with accessible childcare, which makes my schedule flexible and perfect to accommodate your needs. I am available all days except Wednesdays and Sundays. Allowing someone into your home to care for your fur babies requires a strong foundation of trust. Understanding this, I will sit down with you to create the perfect checklist of things you will need me to do for you. My goal is to help not only you but your kitty or pup to trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect, following any rules and boundaries you may have, while making sure to care for your pet the way a family member would. This includes gaining their trust to play at their pace, making sure their bowls are clean for the fresh food and water, cleaning up any messes they may have made including getting into the trash or using the bathroom in or out of the litter box, or giving your pup a bath at your request.
About: I am fun, loving, and caring especially when it comes to pets! I am a big dog lover and grew up with dogs, but also had a cat when I was younger!! I work from home and need to get out of the house as much as the dog does! I have super flexible hours and can’t wait to meet new furry friends. I am very active! I always provide love and attention to all pets! I make sure they are cared for often and at the right times. They deserve all the love!
About: I’ve been a dog mom for 13+ years to two wild and lovable Portuguese Water Dogs, so I know all about zoomies, drool, and muddy paw prints! I’m great with high-energy pups, belly rub pros, and picky treat eaters. Whether it’s fetch, long walks, or just good company, I treat every dog like family-and yes, I talk to them like they’re people. 🐾💕 I work as an EMT on Saturday nights, so I’m super flexible during the week and most weekends! Whether your pet needs midday walks, drop-ins, or overnight cuddles, I’ve got the time and love to give. As an EMT, I’m calm under pressure and trained to be reliable and responsible, skills that carry over to caring for pets. I only work Saturday nights, so I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the time and attention they deserve. You can trust that I’ll treat your furry family members with the same care, love, and safety I give my own dogs.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 3 years old, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have hands on experience with large breeds and am confident handling bigger dogs with different energy levels. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the importance of patience, comfort as they age. I put a lot of love and care into every pet I watch. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. Making sure they feel safe, loved, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule where I work from home somedays. My partner also works 5 minutes from our house and is able to help with potty breaks during the day. We spend a lot of time in our yard or walking the canal on nice days and would love a wagging tail to join us. We have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood to go on walks. We love to go to the canal and spend time outside. We have a fully finished basement with mini splits and air circulation system, perfect for any size dog to enjoy!
About: Dogs have been the heartbeat of my life for as long as I can remember. From my childhood pup who lived to be 17, to my first adult dog who gave me 16 years of unforgettable adventure, I have deep experience caring for canines at every stage of life—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Currently, I’m the proud parent of two incredible doodles, Macchiato and Noisette. They are well-socialized daycare veterans who absolutely love welcoming new friends into our pack! After a rewarding 25-year career as a hairstylist, I am slowly pivoting to include my passion for detail and customer care toward pet care services. I can’t wait to treat your pups like family! With advanced notice, my schedule is incredibly flexible. When your pups are staying with me, their comfort and safety are my top priorities—I ensure they are never left alone for more than 4 to 5 hours at any time and provide tailored care to each dogs needs. To make things as convenient as possible for you, I also offer pickup and drop-off services. I proudly service the Aquidneck Island and East Bay communities, including Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth, Bristol, and Tiverton. Your pups will be treated exactly like members of my own family. I live on a spacious half-acre of fully fenced yard, offering plenty of room for your dogs to stretch their legs, zoom around, or just relax in the sun ( new PUP DECK coming soon). As a dedicated dog parent myself, I completely understand how tough it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else. That is why I am highly receptive to your specific routines, preferences, and instructions. I pride myself on being a clear communicator and highly dependable because I know that when it comes to your pets, trust is absolutely everything.
About: I am your typical dog lover. I have been a member for rover for years and built a consistent clientele. My goal is to give your dog the best care as if they were my own! Accommodations can be made for any of my services offered. I work full time but accommodations can be made. Best available after 2:00pm on most days, but living an active lifestyle makes it easy to add a furry friend to my nightly runs or walks. Making sure your animal is comfortable is my main priority. Catering to each pets specific needs is how I gain trust from each new pet.
About: I volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am great with both dogs and cats. I grew up with my cat, Hepsiba, born before me who died when I was nearly 20 years of age. We were best friends before I knew what that was. Then at the age of 12 or so, my parents adopted 2 English cocker spaniels, brother and sister. Robbie and Flora. So I was taking care of three pets. Then I raised Bruce, a rescued black lab mix from August 2013 until 2025 with some breaks for the US Army. And I taught him very well; he passed in June 2025 but he will always be my companion at my side. For some time I carried him, 120 lbs, up and down flights of stairs. Sometimes from here to there, carefully, comfortably, gingerly. I have a background in psychology, and I’m a dog trainer and a bit of a behaviorist. I’ve taken care of pets for family members and friends. And did so professionally in the past prior to Rover, after friends got me into it, which I started in August 2025. I’m great with animals. After spending even just a short time with them we can often establish a connection or rapport, especially when training a younger pet (or caring for an older dog). I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, I could run with your dog, play with them, but mostly we’ll be doing what they want - within reason. I will basically be spending the entire time with your pets. We’ll wake up between five to eight in the morning, and we’ll go bed between eight and eleven at night. I’ll be up with them as they need and we’ll be in and out much more than is required. I am delicate and meticulous and believe in leaving no trace that I was there. I want my client after their time away from home and their animals to not be met with the mess that I could be leaving behind. I am committed to performing an act of cleaning based on the tools available.
About: Hi! I am Lakshmi and I personally have 7yrs of experience with dogs of all kinds. Me and my husband both love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. We would love to take care of your pooch while you are away. We promise to provide brisk walks, fun playtime, and of course belly rubs and cuddling for your beloved dog. So that you can have a guilt free vacation of your own :) Our schedule is flexible and your dog will never be home alone for long. The couch and bed are never off-limits. We separate the dogs during feeding times and ** safety is out top priority**. So we make it a point to do a meet and greet for all the first time clients. We have a six-year-old Labrador retriever boy named "Bruno" whom we adore! He is neutered and is very friendly. We fully understand all the hard work, effort, and commitment which goes into raising our fur babies. I totally understand how much difficult it can be to be away from your pet. We will do our best to make your vacation stress free by giving regular updates on your pooch is doing. We both have our own full time jobs and I work from home. So, rest assured that your dog is never unattended for more than 2 hours except when we are at the gym or have some errands to run. We have a friendly dog of our own at home to keep your dog company 24/7. There is no fenced yard but we live in a beautiful community and we do long walks and park visits(when the weather permits).
About: Hi, I’m Isabel! I love making sure every pup in my care feels right at home. My husband, Shawn, works fully remotely, and our dog-savvy 10-year-old son loves having furry friends around. We have two dog-friendly rescues, Stevie and Griggs, who are also happy to welcome visiting pups into our home. Stevie was actually a former client who became family, so we know firsthand how special these bonds can be! When your dog stays with us, they become part of our everyday routines. From walks and playtime to simply relaxing together at home, we want every pup to feel comfortable, included, and loved. Think of it as a little staycation with plenty of companionship and a home away from home. We’d love to meet you and your pup! Reach out to schedule a meet and greet so we can get to know each other and see if we’re a good fit. I’m currently working part-time and I go for long walks daily, so I have plenty of time to provide care for your beloved animal friends! I believe pets are family members; anytime I visit a home, I’m a guest of the pet as well! While you’re away (out of town or at work) I’ll make sure that your pet is comfortable at home!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life: dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, you name it! My smallest dog ever was a chihuahua and my largest is a cane corso. My home was also a foster home and we had many litters of puppies and kittens come through on their way to their forever families! My schedule is very open at the moment so feel free to reach out to me! I can likely work whatever you need into my time. I am happy to take your pet outside, feed them, play with them, go for a walk or to get some exercise! I am unable to take them in my home but happy to work with you to fit you and your pet’s needs.

About: I just moved to Mass from Costa Rica for work. Had to leave behind momentarily my family, which includes my wife, my dog (Millie) and my cat (cowboy). I really miss them, so I would like to offer my sitter/walker services to feel close to animals and make new furry friends! I love all animals and I’m an eternal defender of animal rights and wellbeing. I work full time Monday-Friday. I have full availability on weekends (Friday evening to Sunday night) and limited availability M-F evenings (6pm-10pm). I understand some owners have certain limits to be respected with their pets, so I adapt to the care and restrictions they have. I’m open to listen and adapt to my furry client. I’m also open to be recorded or provide constant updates/videos.
“Emma is simply the best. She is responsible and dependable. She’s a great communicator and takes plenty of pet photos and videos. Best of all, my pets love her! With Emma, I always feel like my animals are in good hands”

“Hayley took great care of our cat while we were away. Our cat hides when someone she doesn’t know well comes over, but Haley still did her best to comfort her without causing too much stress and rolled treats to her under the bed. Hayley is great at communicating and gave detailed feedback each day about how much our cat was eating, etc. She is compassionate and reliable. I highly recommend this wonderful, kind sitter.”

About: With over nine years of experience in pet sitting, I have honed my ability to provide outstanding care for animals. I am committed to dedicating the necessary time and patience to any pet that requires additional attention and affection. As a former dog owner, I would be delighted to have the opportunity to care for your beloved furry companion. I have recently made the decision to transition into a career in Real Estate, and I now enjoy a flexible schedule. I am available during the mornings and late afternoons, with full availability on weekends. I offer an open-concept home with ample space for your pet to feel comfortable. Additionally, I have a large, fenced yard that provides plenty of room for your pet to run, play, and explore.

About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m caring, patient, responsible, and will treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and get plenty of attention while in my care. I currently work as an automotive technician in Braintree MA. I work from 7-5 most days, with a lunch break at 12:30. I am more than happy to provide service on my lunch breaks as well! I am off Wednesday and Sunday every week, along with some holidays off. I am able to house sit any day of the week, and able to walk, or care for three times a day on work days and all day on days I don’t. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight house sitting, and boarding. Having cared for four cats and two dogs of my own and through family pets, I’ve developed a genuine love for animals and their unique personalities. I’ve also occasionally pet-sat for family, and I always go the extra mile to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I believe every animal deserves patience, affection, and personalized attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving plenty of love, attention, and the best possible care while they’re away. I do also have my own floor in my apartment that I can have pets in!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Acushnet
Abigail B. was very reliable, efficient and caring. She truly enjoyed being with our cat and dog at our home. Our dog has special senior dog needs and she was very attentive to him. We would call Abigail again and again for our pet vacation coverage. She was an excellent communicator and we did not worry about our pets because they were in such good hands.

Our four-month-old Golden retriever puppy was SO excited to see Sarah again! He got the puppy zoomies. She really understands puppies, and is patient, loving, and playful - and good at avoiding his land-shark puppy teeth! We - and our puppy - will look forward to seeing Sarah again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Acushnet is $31 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $47 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,547 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Acushnet. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Acushnet 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.
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.
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.
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 Acushnet with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
