Katie went above and beyond in every aspect! She took care of my 2 kitties in my home for 2 weeks, coming over 2x a day, making sure they had all care provided plus plenty of playtime and cuddles. She responded to my booking request and messages quickly, did troubleshooting with Rover support on my behalf when I had issues with booking, sent great photos and detailed care summaries while I was away, offered to pick up necesities to make my return home easier...she even offered to drive over when my car needed a jump when I returned home to a dead battery in my car! I was very nervous leaving my kittens for 2 weeks, but she instantly made me feel at ease during our meet & greet: attentive, asked good questions, and she followed through with remembering all my verbal instructions when I forgot to leave behind a printed summary of care instructions. My kittens can have separation anxiety and haven't interacted with many new people--they instantly took to her (even the spicy one) and I loved seeing the many photos of her having a good time with them. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. Next time I'm out of town, I will absolutely be booking Katie again!

Sounds like Kai has a new friend. Thanks for accommodating the earlier start time. Let me know if you have success with her not jumping. It’s her love language but most people don’t care for it. Hoping as she gets more accustomed to her new home, she’ll be able to stay home ithiut the crate but not yet.

About: I have been a Petsitter since I was young. Whether it’s just going for walks or overnight stays. All pets welcome no fear over here. From cats to reptiles and anything in between! I’m comfortable working with reactive pets & pets with medical needs. I rescue through halfway home cat rescue were I’ve had many medical recovery kitties on top of feral kitties. I’m creative with getting things done carefully and safely for your pets. As a pet sitter, safety is my top priority. I make sure to follow all instructions provided by pet owners to ensure their pets are well cared for in a secure environment. I am experienced in recognizing signs of stress, discomfort, or illness, and I always act quickly to address any concerns. Whether it's securing the house, keeping pets away from hazards, or following medication schedules, I'm committed to providing a safe and stress-free experience. I am now a full time pet sitter. So it gives me the flexibility to be available early morning and evening with overnight as well. I currently have a full home so I do not care in my own home. But I am more then available for in home visits and overnight if needed!

Amber was great! We had an unusual request (help us medicate our cats, it takes 2 people) and she jumped right in. Without her our kitties would have missed days of necessary medications.

About: I've loved and cared for dogs for most of my life, and currently have a Chihuahua mix named Chico and a cat named Frankie. I'm a good-hearted and easygoing person excited to spend my free time with some lovable pooches! Chico is an 11-year-old rescue, who loves ice cream and burying himself in blankets. Frankie is a snoozy indoor cat, but loves playing with Chico occasionally. For all of my bookings, I like to provide lots of attention to each pet, and create a comfortable environment for them. I’ve had a ton of fun with the pets I've met so far, and I would love to meet some more furry friends and owners soon! I currently work from home full time in the healthcare industry. I am looking to offer sitting services in my free time, but can likely be flexible with my schedule. Safety for all pets is my biggest priority, whether they are my own or yours. I’m open to any information that would make your pets feel more comfortable, and would love to answer any questions during a meet and greet before a service.

About: I have worked in pet grooming salons as well as daycare and boarding! I have also owned my own pets from birds to dogs to snakes! I believe every pet deserves to be treated with love, respect, and kindness I currently work as a dog groomer at a doggie daycare/boarding facility! I work five days a week, primarily mothers hours. I am usually available after 3PM or before 7:30AM! In my home there is a spare air conditioned bedroom for pets that need their own separate space, otherwise any pets will be allowed to coexist in my home with my own two medium sized dogs. I love to hike, go on walks, play, and cuddle on the couch! I believe all animals deserve to be loved, and yours will be treated as my own when in my care - weather for a sleepover or just a walk!

About: Big or small, I love them all! I have expertise caring for senior, special needs, and high anxiety dogs. Need a pet care professional that focuses on your dogs needs? I'm here for you. Throughout my life, I've always had at least one dog, and I currently share my home with a wonderful pack of seven. Because I know how important a pet’s routine and comfort are, I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits, ensuring your dog gets my absolute, undivided attention in their own familiar neighborhood. I take pride in delivering the highest level of care and always put a dog's well-being first. My professional background includes working at a dog daycare as a behavioral coordinator, where I specialized in safely handling dogs with challenging or reactive behaviors. I'm also the go-to guy for most of my friends and family when they need a reliable pet sitter. Ensuring proper enrichment and care throughout the day for even the most energetic of dogs is my goal. I also partner with local rescues and sanctuaries to foster dogs, focusing heavily on senior and medically disabled pets. One of my dogs is actually paralyzed and another one was born with only 2 legs and they are some of the most fun dogs I've ever had. My specialized, hands-on skills include: Expressing paralyzed dogs Administering insulin injections Managing difficult, timid, or leash-reactive behaviors Animal CPR and First Aid (Certified since 2019) If your dog has special needs, lets chat! While my main focus is dogs, I also have extensive experience with guinea pigs, rats, mice, and lizards. I also love bugs, so if you have some wild exotics I'm happy to help with them as well! Whether your pet needs a slow and patient approach on their daily walk, specialized medical attention during a midday drop-in, or just a lot of love while you are at work, they are in safe, experienced hands with me. I have a flexible work schedule and can do drop-in visits or walks throughout the day. Most evenings I am also available past 4pm until about 10pm. I love playing around with dogs if that's what they need, but I also don't mind just hanging out with a senior dog while they relax and wonder the yard. I try to cater to the specific dog or dogs in my care. I have experience working at a dog daycare and ensuring dogs days safe, fun, and are full of enrichment are my top priorities. I take a caring approach to making sure dogs are comfortable. I do what I can to read behavioral cues and try my best to approach each dog based on their own boundaries. If you're looking for walks, or just a drop in, I'll make sure your dog has the fun they deserve.

About: Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m an Animal Science student with professional experience caring for dogs and a lifetime of experience caring for cats. I offer care in client’s homes through drop-in visits, walks and extended drop-ins. I spent 2 years working at a dog rescue, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning kennels, exercising dogs, monitoring their health and behavior, and helping nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable. Working with rescue dogs taught me how to read body language, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care. I’ve also been a cat owner since I was eight years old and have had four cats throughout my life. My senior cat became disabled later in life, so I have experience with medication, grooming, litter box care, and adapting routines for pets with special needs. That experience gave me a special place in my heart for senior animals and pets who need a little extra patience. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As a full-time Animal Science student, I schedule pet care around my classes and keep my availability updated on Rover. I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, and once I accept a booking your pet becomes a priority. I offer reliable drop-in visits and dog walking, and I’m happy to spend extra time with your pets when needed to make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I provide care in my clients’ homes through drop-in visits, walks, and extended drop-ins so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I always treat my clients’ homes with respect, make safety my top priority, and provide regular photo and message updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. I’m heading to UMass to study Animal Science and hope to join the National Guard to gain EOD bomb-sniffing dog experience. I currently own a high-energy Border Collie/Australian Kelpie mix I rescued, and I’ve also cared for an elderly Shih Tzu who needed lots of special attention and patience. I’m very work-oriented, reliable, and people have told me I’m great with customer service. Neighbors, friends, and family often count on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. As a full-time student, I’ve built a schedule that still gives me plenty of time for pet care. I’m available Mondays after 5 PM, Tuesdays and Thursdays after 12 PM, and Wednesdays after 4 PM. On weekends, my availability is more flexible, which means I can give pets the attention and exercise they need without feeling rushed. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they always feel safe and cared for. I’ve had experience with high-energy dogs as well as older pets who need more patience and special care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or sticking to a feeding routine, I make sure to keep things consistent so pets feel comfortable. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your rules and routines to keep everything familiar and stress-free for them.

About: I have been thoroughly enamored by dogs most of my life, ever since my family got our first black Lab. I have experience working with puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I currently have a 1-year-old puppy and 2 cats at home, all of whom are front-and-center in my life. I am also a veterinary technician (nurse), so I am very comfortable giving medication and caring for pets who may be unwell. I can also perform basic veterinary first aid, though I do not know CPR. I am extremely dedicated to keeping pets happy and healthy. I love working with them and discovering their unique personalities and quirks. I look forward to getting to know your dog! I am currently a full time vet tech, but am available all day on Sunday and Monday, and also afternoons (after 2 pm) on Wednesday and Saturday. I have one very friendly large-breed dog, who is generally pretty chill around other dogs, but will sometimes play. In your home, I would respect any boundaries you set and maintain common courtesy. I also strive to leave everything as I found it.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Belchertown on Rover is $29.42 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,671 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Belchertown. 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 Belchertown 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 Belchertown. On Rover:

  • 94% 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.
