“Danielle is amazing! She’s super reliable, communicative, and always keeps us updated with plenty of photos. Theo is always so happy with her, and we come home to a very happy pup every time! It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands. We’ve had such a great experience with Danielle and will definitely continue using her. Highly recommend!”

“I booked Natalie at the last minute for a four-day stay with my dog Yoshi, a Cavalier, and my cat Sparky in Boston’s Leather District — and she made the whole thing effortless. Despite the short notice she was extremely responsive and immediately offered either a virtual or in-person consultation. We met the day before the booking started, and I felt comfortable with her within minutes. She handled everything Yoshi and Sparky needed: walks, medications, and feeding, and photo updates. She even offered to change the linens and tidy up so I’d come home to an easy landing. She left my home spotless! If you’re looking for a caring, courteous, concierge-level house sitter, Natalie is who you want. Highly recommend.”

About: I have had two golden retrievers throughout my lifetime. My first dog named Buddie was with me throughout my childhood, up until a few months after I graduated from college. She fought cancer that had spread to her lungs and required daily medications and extra love. She also had severe arthritis in her joints, and it was important for her to stay active, but also stay comfortable. So I was responsible with taking care of her until she won her fight. My current dog is a sweet goldendoodle that was rehomed to my family at the age of four. She has a completely different personality than my previous dog, and I truly believe that she sent her to us to bring extra joy and love into our lives. She gives endless kisses and requires a lot more attention when she’s outside. She is a bird connoisseur and tries to chase anything that has wings. In order to keep her a little bit more tame, I trained her to ignore all flying objects by using a vibrating collar. Now she is the best behaved and sweetest furball you would ever meet. I am a full-time law student. So my schedule is pretty predictable but busy! I am free before 9 am and after 5pm Monday- Thursday and available all day Friday-Sunday. I have one cat and she can be placed inside of my room in my apartment if needed. However, that would not be for too long, definitely not overnight.

“Kristina was wonderful and so patient with our rescue pup, Mia! Mia can be cautious and afraid of new people so it was nice to have Kristina be so patient with her (and me) about the situation. Mia opened up to her during her stay, and was even sitting on her lap! Kristina was also incredibly considerate of our home and left everything even cleaner than it had been. We were traveling internationally so her constant communication with us was so reassuring and helpful! Thank you Kristina!”

About: I’ve been a dog Mom for 13 years, and since my most recent dog passed last year I have loved sitting for friend’s dogs and playing auntie to neighborhood dogs! I care for all fur babies like they are my own children, giving them lots of love, pets, cuddles, playtime and zoomie initiations. I am very active and love to run with more athletic dogs, or be more restful with older dogs that just need a good companion when their pawrents are away. I work from home and have flexibility to sit in the mornings, lunchtime and in the early evenings. I love long walks, but also happy to find the nearest dog park and sit while the dogs play I live in a 3-story townhome with a shared community yard that is quiet and protected from the street. I do not have a crate in my home, but plenty of space to keep one in the bedroom. Also happy to have any sweet fur baby in the bed or on the love seat in the bedroom

“Amy is just a wonderful dog sitter, she was taking care of our dog, who can be quite demanding emotionally, for almost one week. When Amy came to meet us, our dog was staying next to her the whole time, very comfortable and happy to be petted by her. Amy was sending regular videos showing our dog obviously feeling relaxed and cheerful with her. She is very responsive, communication is very easy. I really cannot imagine a better person to take care of our dog. Thank you so much!”

“Stephanie was brilliant. She was so trustworthy and caring towards our 3 dogs. One is very sensitive and it was not an easy job. Our dogs were sleeping with her, even though I’d never have expected it. The dogs prefer it. She was so tolerant and diligent. She also communicated with me the entire time. She is fantastic and I give her the highest recommendation.”

About: I've lived with pets of all shapes and sizes my entire life. When I was a newborn, my family had 10+ pets at home, including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles, and I haven't really known life without animals since! I of course do not discriminate against any kind of pet, but my specialty is dogs. We've had all kinds of breeds over the years, from Mini Australian Shepherds and Chihuahuas to adorable mutts and deaf Great Danes. We also fostered litters of puppies and senior pets growing up, so even though it has been a while, I have plenty of experience caring for animals of all different ages. Growing up with so many pets has given me lots of hands-on experience with everything animal, including walking, bathing, basic training, cleaning up some serious messes, and, naturally, never ending cuddles. While I haven't had a ton of formal pet-care experience, caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I've also volunteered at animal shelters, where I've walked, cuddled, and cleaned up after all kinds of dogs and cats. I'm the kind of person that asks every owner I see in public if I can pet their dog, regardless of the company I'm in and the places I have to be. Even when they shouldn't be, animals are my main priority, and yours will be too! I have a flexible schedule as a current Master's student. At the moment, I only have classes in the evenings three days a week, so my days are very open! I'm also more than happy to spend time with your pets on the weekends. I am currently in the process of finding a part-time job, so my schedule may change in the future. However, I expect to still have a pretty flexible schedule and will always do my best to communicate my availability clearly! If I'm pet sitting at your home, I'll do my best to spend as much time with your pet as possible throughout the day while balancing classes and other clients. I'll also make sure not to leave your pet alone for longer than necessary and will always do my best to be home before dark. I'll send plenty of puppy updates, pictures, and videos so you can see that your baby is happy and in good hands! I'm also very flexible and will do my best to keep your pet's normal routine and schedule as consistent as possible while you're away.

Kathryn and Matthew were amazing sitters! We were gone for 2 weeks for our wedding and honeymoon and we felt completely relaxed knowing our dog Cleo was in good hands. We received daily updates of Cleo having the best time and it was clear she felt at peace with them. We would absolutely have them watch Cleo again!

Macklyne did an excellent job taking care of our cat and dog in our home. She was very caring towards them and gave them a lot of attention. She goes above and beyond - even with a nor’easter bringing lots of rain, she still took Esther for walks and gave plenty of potty breaks. I would highly recommend her!

Adrian took excellent care of our pup over a long weekend. He sent us plenty of pics and updates throughout, which we really appreciated since this was our first time leaving our doggo. Adrian was super communicative and thoughtful leading up to, during, and after his time petsitting. He made sure Plum got lots of exercise and attention while we were away, and our home looked pristine when we got back. We’ll definitely want to work with Adrian again and would recommend him to anyone looking for a great petsitter!

Kristina stayed with our Siberian Husky for a night and she was so wonderful! We were super at ease as she grew up with the breed, and she was communicative with us and sent great pics. I would recommend her to anyone to watch a high energy, tricky, large dog breed, or any dog breed for that matter, as she is professional, communicative, and calm. We will definitely book her again in the future when we need our dog watched.

Amy took excellent care of our kitty Ricky and our house while we were away for 5 days. She sent us photos everyday and some videos, some of which were quite humorous. Amy communicated with us everyday about how things were going. She gave me incredible peace of mind and her presence in our home and care of our best friend made our vacation extra enjoyable because we could truly relax. Highly capable, patient, gentle, and sensitive to the unusual personality of our older Bengal cat. I cannot thank her and recommend her enough!

FAQs for House Sitting - Boston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Boston on Rover is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $128 per night. 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 6,430 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Boston. 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 Boston 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 Boston 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Boston 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 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boston. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
