“Kristen was so good with our pups! She sent us updates and pictures each day while we were gone and the pups looked like they were having a blast! She gave our dog her medicine each day and all around was just absolutely wonderful, would recommend Kristen for anyone needing a pet sitter. She is the best!”

About: I've had dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and fish since I was a kid. My family also boarded/walked dogs for a while on here before. I'm very flexible so I can pretty much make anything work. I do some Uber eats as well. Not sure why it's making me put THIS many words here but it's required. I am very careful and caring for my own that I've had over the years. Right now I personally have an iguana that has a lot of particular care needs. And so I understand that everyone else wants their animals to be treated with that same amount of intention.

“Mary is absolutely 💯 fantastic! She was able to accommodate me and my dogs for a last minute trip to Michigan for a funeral. It was so nice to know my boys were safe and being well taken care of durning this hard time . She a a very special person. Thank you Mary !”

“Melanie did a great job watching our dog and taking care of our home over a long weekend! We were a bit nervous since our dog is very old and picky, but she took to Melanie quickly and Melanie made the whole process super easy. We received tons of cute photos throughout and we returned home to a happy pup and well taken care of home. We would absolutely recommend Melanie to others for all dog-sitting/house-sitting needs.”

“Whitney took amazing care of our two dogs while we were out of town! She treated them like they were her own and gave us so much peace of mind, especially with leaving our puppy for the first time! Will absolutely be rebooking Whitney for future stays!”

“We had such a positive experience with Samantha. She communicated to us how our dogs were doing while we were away, sent us photos, and overall provided them with love and lots of attention while we were away!”


About: I have lots of experience with walking, exercising, play dates, overnight pet sitting, washing, brushing, feeding, and giving them medicine. No problems with large dog breeds or with lifting elderly pets. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available weekdays as well as weekends for walking, over nights stays, washing, playtime, feeding, etc. I will always ensure to arrive in a timely manner and show your pet the upmost love and care. I have a fenced in back yard, exercise equipment as well as 5 different toys for my dog to play with. I walk them daily, wash them as needed and ensure they get fed in a timely manner.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! They went above and beyond taking care of our dog and treated them like family. We received regular updates, photos, and messages the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Communication was amazing, and it was clear our pups was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. We came home to a relaxed and happy dog, and that says everything. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring!”

About: I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures. I’m working part time at a boutique downtown so I have plenty of time to babysit your children and make sure they have the care, love and attention they need. Please ask any questions & I’d be happy to meet you beforehand to make sure I’m the right fit. I’m very active and adventurous. I love to explore, walk, cuddle and play with my furry friends but most importantly is what you know your animal wants and what they will be happy and comfortable with, and I will do just that.
About: I've been pet sitting for the past 4 years, caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. In addition to my professional experience, I've grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I understand that every pet has their own routine and unique needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether that's walks, playtime, feeding, administering simple medications, or just providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I've built a strong reputation through word of mouth for being dependable, trustworthy, and compassionate. I'm excited to use this platform to connect with more pet owners and continue providing reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their families peace of mind. Pet care is a big part of my daily life! After completing four years in the Marine Corps, I now have a flexible schedule that allows me to focus on caring for pets. I regularly babysit, dog sit, walk dogs, and care for cats whenever opportunities arise, so my days are centered around providing dependable care for families in my community. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and I love being able to give pet owners peace of mind while they're away. Whether it's sticking to a pet's routine, going on walks, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a former Marine, I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and take responsibility seriously. I'll carefully follow your pet's routine, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for while you're away. Whether they need lots of playtime and exercise or prefer quiet companionship and cuddles, I'll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I treat every pet—and every home—with the same level of respect and care that I would expect for my own.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats for most of my life. I was lucky enough to travel with my family, showing Standard and Giant Schnauzers expanding my knowledge and love for breeds of all sizes and personalities. Throughout my adulthood I have enjoyed caring for my friend’s pets while they were away. I just recently moved to Fayetteville and I miss having pets now and would like to be able to get some sloppy kisses, hugs and purrrrfect companionship and would love the opportunity to care for part of your family while you are away. Walks, playtime and snuggles are a daily routine. Special Skills I am well acquainted with taking care of puppies, and senior dogs with medical needs. I have trained dogs through obedience classes. I’m currently on Summer break and have full weeks of time off from June 1 through August 15th, 2026. The rest of the months I am free from Friday evenings through Sunday evening for home sitting. Holidays I am also free. I follow directions carefully and treat your pet and home as if they were mine. I am happy to text or send picture updates as requested.
“Joshua did amazing watching our two dogs. They are super energetic and playful and he was able to keep them worn out by the end of each day. He took very good care with their regimented feeding and sleeping schedule. Would definitely recommend.”

About: Built-In 24/7 Companionship: Because I work a full-time remote corporate job, I am not leaving your home for 8 to 10 hours a day. I work right alongside your pets, providing continuous companionship, structured routine, and excellent home security. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because my full-time remote work setup is built around being at home. Instead of squeezing pet care into early mornings or late nights, your animals become a natural part of my regular day. The way I care for pets is tailored specifically to the environment that makes them feel most comfortable, ensuring a seamless transition whether I am staying at your house or visiting.
About: I’ve always had a special place for animals! Growing up, my home was sanctuary to 3 dogs, a cat, sweet guinea pigs, and even on occasion a ladybug or butterfly (in order to prove my caregiving skills to my parents). From my days dog-walking and pet-sitting, I honed in my pet are skills during my time working for a pet store and boarding clinic called Lucky Pets. At Lucky Pets I was able to master my pet-sitting skills, absorb many different types of dog training methods, and learn about all sorts of pet products and pet needs. I’m currently a recent graduate and UCF ROTC commissionee of the U.S. Army, and I’m awaiting my orders this summer. I have a car, and I’m able to drive to your house to watch over your pet! I’m very comfortable hanging out with your pet in mine or your home, and I’m able to feed, walk, and play with any animal big or small!

“I always get very nervous when I leave my cats, so having Margaret stay with them while I was away for couple days gave me so much peace of mind! She was reliable, attentive, and incredibly sweet and patient with them, followed all my instructions, and kept me updated with great reports. One of my cats takes some time to warm up to people, so seeing him cuddle with her one morning says a lot! 🥹 She also went above and beyond with other little things, like watering the plants and feeding the birds, and was very respectful of my home. I’m so grateful for the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her with my cats again!”

About: I have worked in veterinary medicine for three years, have owned many dogs in my life, and currently work as a mobile groomer. I have two certificates in grooming as well as experience in doggy daycare, dog and cat boarding, dog training, first aid, and equine welfare and management. I am currently a part time mobile groomer. When I’m not working, I am still spending time with animals in whatever way I can. I love pets! My own dogs are animal friendly and love new friends. My two are kennel trained and are soon to be certified for Canine Good Citizen. I have years of experience with animals of all energy levels and will cater accordingly. A trust and bond with any animal is very important to me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ashmont is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $50 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 440 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ashmont. 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 Ashmont 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 Ashmont 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 Ashmont 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 , 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 .
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 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.
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.
