âSara took wonderful care of Charlie and I would certainly leave him with her again. Even though he can be shy, Charlie took to Sara the first time he met her which put me right at ease. It was easy to communicate with her and it was so nice to receive pictures of them together. When I returned it was obvious that Charlie was well taken care of and that my condo was left as clean and neat as I left it!!â
âEmily was wonderful with our 10mo puppy, giving him attention and providing enrichment throughout the day, taking him on his midday walk and feeding him lunch. We came home to a happy, wriggly, sleepy puppy. Emily also left the sweetest report card and polaroid shot of Kiwi at the end of the day :)â
âJackie was amazing. She gets on very well with our dog and Jackie was extremely flexible and helpful when we had to extend her dog sitting when we got stuck in a snow storm. Would absolutely recommend.â
âAâJacia took excellent care of our cat, Kima. She was very communicative with us while we were away. If we were not moving we would absolutely hire her again. We highly recommend her services !â
About: Hi! I am excited to meet your pets! I have had animals my whole life and have a special loving bond with all animals! I have done pet sitting and work in shelters for a number of years. Pet care is my daily responsibilities with my own pets at home. I volunteer at shelters but would love to make your pets part of my day! I am very knowledgeable about animal behavior and animal needs. I understand the importance of understanding each animal and their needs! I approach each animal slowly and calmly to help comfort them as we get to know each other.
âMelissa was great! She watched our beagle last minute for an entire day, who is often shy and scared of strangers and she warmed right up to her. We felt good knowing our girl was in such great care. We would definitely recommend and book Melissa again!â
About: I have experience caring for dogs in shelter, daycare, and boarding environments. I've trained and fostered many shelter dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I'm a college student and love spending any time with dogs! I'm a student with availability in the afternoons and evenings. My schedule is fairly flexible on weekdays, and I have set times on weekends available. I make sure to follow each dog's routine and treat every dog as an individual. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I enjoy sending updates and photos.
About: Hello! I grew up with dogs and cats, and now I live with two dogs and three cats. My house is a little chaotic, but I love it. Iâve been walking dogs in Newton and all over NYC for the past few years, and itâs honestly one of my favorite parts of the day. Dogs get hyped about the simplest stuff, and Iâm usually just as into it as they are. I also speak fluent cat, so I can tell when they want snuggles and when they just want to be left alone. I do drop-in visits and evening care, and I like learning what makes each pet unique: their routine, their favorite toys, their weird quirks. Iâll follow your instructions, send photos and updates, and treat your pet like one of my own. Message me and we can set up a meet-and-greet. Iâd love to meet your pet! Iâm a student with a very flexible schedule, so Iâm available throughout the week and on weekends. I can work around your petâs needs, whether thatâs a morning walk, a midday visit, or an evening check-in. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your pet can feel comfortable and secure. I follow all care instructions carefully and supervise pets at all times, making sure their needs are met. I also send regular updates and photos so you can stay connected while away. With experience caring for cats, dogs, and small pets, I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and wellbeing.
âLaura was amazing with our puppy, and we were very comforted in knowing that he was in good hands with her frequent updates and pictures. She was great with tolerating his puppy behaviors and left our house immaculate. Highly recommend, will definitely call her again!â
âWe had a great experience working with Arshneel for the first time while we were just away for two weeks. She was incredibly reliable and responsive and gave our large, energetic dog plenty of exercise time!â
âAllison was wonderful with our two dogs! She was very positive and willing to work to gain their trust with her calm, cheerful attitude. We loved the daily photos, videos with commentary (!!), and updates. We highly recommend Allison.â
About: I've cared for dogs since childhood. We had multiple dogs growing up and I've always enjoyed helping family and friends with their animals as needed. I care for my dog friend at home these days and am excited to meet other dogs and give them care/company! My career in psychology has given me a background in behavioral learning and plan setting, and to support training schedules as needed. I have a career in psychology with down time, I'm looking to use my experience to help dogs and owners. My schedule allows for walks during the day and I have flexibility to stay over if needed. I have a dog at home and utilize the same care for pets and their owners that I practice with my little one. Safety is paramount and whether on walks or watching pets at home, I ensure that pets are cared for well. Fun and enrichment are also important and a big part of my motivation to spend time with pet friends. It's important that they can relax and have fun while being safely supervised.
âChristy was great, I felt very comfortable leaving Trixie in her care and letting her into my home. She was very accommodating, with my early flight out and late flight in and also bringing her own sheets. I really appreciated her making the bed and leaving the house spotless when I arrived at midnight. Her daily reports of Trixie were also greatly appreciatedâ
âDevika 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.â
âBoning is amazing, an absolute animal whisperer. I have a nervous cat and a nervous dog, and they both felt so comfortable with her! She took care of our four animals and was absolutely amazing, very communicative and shared great pics! Iâm so grateful for her.â
âSarah was amazing staying with my dogs during a 3 day worn trip. I've had some exceptionally bad experiences with sitters on this platform in the past and Sarah did a great job understanding my unease and accommodating my anxiety around leaving my dogs. I can't recommend her enough, she's a top tier pet sitter.â
âRobin is absolutely fantastic. She always updates me and sends me pictures during her stay. My dogs feel very comfortable with her and even sleep in for her while Iâm away! Highly highly recommend Robin!â

Devon is our go-to pet sitter! She takes wonderful care of our animals, and itâs clear how much they love her. We always appreciate the thoughtful photos and updates she sends while weâre away. Sheâs been incredibly patient with our puppy and goes above and beyond to manage all the animalsâ needs and logistics, keeping everyone safe and happy. She even left our home looking better than we left it, which was such a lovely surprise to come back to! Weâre so grateful to have someone as thoughtful, dependable, and caring as Devon!
Kathryn is amazing! Stayed in our house and watched our two mini dachshunds. Walked them multiple times a day and sent twice daily updates and photos. We are so grateful to have no worries for our pups while Kathrynnis here - highest praise and recommendation!
Savanna is a gem! We are so fortunate to have found and met her through Rover. She stayed with our three-yes, 3! English labs and one special little fish for seven nights. We came home to find them all very happy and clearly well taken care of. Plus our house looked like no one had been here, but better! She is a reliable, thoughtful, and warm caretaker.

FAQs for House Sitting - Babson Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Babson Park is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $40 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 petâs 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 6,820 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Babson Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Babson Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Babson Park 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Babson Park 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 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.
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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.

- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
