“Jenny was great! She was really easy to communicate with and my puppy instantly took a liking to her! She's flexible with what I need and very kind so you can certainly trust your fur babies with her”

About: I have 1-2 years of experience of caring for dogs and pets throughout college! I have specifically cared for medium to large sized puppies and seniors! I am great at dealing with energetic dogs who love to play as well as chiller dogs who love to lounge. I am currently a full time graduate student at Boston University, but I am largely available on weekends and nights! I can house sit on Friday and Saturday nights, and can go on walks everyday at night! My apartment building has its own fenced dog park with room to run and play. I can bring my own pee pads, treats, and toys!
“Elizabeth took care of our kitty for a week. She was absolutely amazing and we’re so happy with our decision to book her. This was the first time we left him with someone that wasn’t family and we felt so assured that he was being taken care of. She sent us updates and amazing photos and stayed longer than necessary each visit. I know our baby was in good hands and I would absolutely book with her again! You can really tell she loves animals!”
About: I have been a loving pet owner for many years and caring for animals has always been something that comes naturally to me. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and feel that I have a special connection with them. I work from home and caretake my mom so I have spots in my day that I can do something I love and that's loving on animals! When caring for your pet in your home, I believe in providing a calm, loving and comfortable environment while respecting your space and your pet's normal routine. I will follow your instructions closely.
About: Prior to signing up with Rover, I have been pet sitting for neighbors and friends. I am available to visit your cat in your home or have your dog stay with us. I have a fenced in yard but I walk my golden retriever twice per day which I would include your dog in those walks and add an evening walk right before bed. I used to walk dogs at an animal shelter, too. I am a teacher, so during the school year your dog would be walked in the morning, in the afternoon and right before bed. I also have a large fenced in yard. The most your dog would be alone during the weekdays would be between 7:00 am and 2:45 but would have our golden retriever as a companion. I have two teenagers at home who also love dogs. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly spayed golden retriever female who is 7 years old. I also have two teenagers who love dogs. Your dog is welcome to sleep on the couch or bed or come with a crate. My dog does not sleep in a crate but I have had other “clients” that prefer to come with their crates.
“Gabby performed all duties accordingly and was communicative throughout the process. Thank you for all the effort! I will recommend her and use her services again in the future!”
“Jordan is magical. She got my feral cat’s trust and was able to pet her (the kitty does not allow me to touch her)! Jordan provided such good care to my kitties and her daily reports were very sweet. Thank you Jordan!”
About: I adore animals of all kinds and specialize in patient, empathetic pet care. All animals have unique personalities and I love getting to know them individually! I currently work from home and have availability during the week to drop in and check on your pets! If you have any questions about my schedule please let me know, I am happy to discuss with you. Every animal has their preferences, and you do too! I’m happy to accommodate any needs they have when taking your dog on a walk or checking in on your cat.
“Molly was such a great sitter for our 2 cats! She was on time (or early) every day, she spent time giving our cats some much needed attention while we were away and sent us photos of our cat daily. She was also very gracious to take care of a few little extras that we asked her to do. Molly is very responsible, reliable, kind and efficient. We are BEYOND satisfied with her service and would not hesitate to hire her again. She’s the best!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Braintree
Christine was an amazing cat sitter! She was always responsive, followed our instructions very carefully, and sent us daily post-visit photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She also paid close attention to our cats’ litter box conditions and cleaned up any hairballs she found to make sure they didn’t get stuck on our carpet. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and care for our cats. Highly recommend Christine to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!
Isabelle did a great job taking care of Julio! She was really attentive to his particular meal and litterbox needs and the instructions we left for his care. She also sent us a lot of great photos of Julio while we were gone. I would definitely book Isabelle again next time we need to leave Julio during a trip!
Yunting was wonderful! She took great care of Delilah while I was away for a week. She was very attentive, reliable, and communicative, and I loved receiving her photos and updates throughout the week. It gave me peace of mind knowing Delilah was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Yunting to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!
As first time users of Rover, we were pretty nervous trusting anyone we didn’t really know with our two cats. However, from the first intro meeting with Simmy our gals, we immediately felt comfortable and that they would be in great hands. Simmy was so easy to work and plan with, and was a great communicator throughout our trip! We would absolutely work with Simmy again and recommend to anyone!
Brenna is an absolutely incredible sitter for our 2 cats! Her updates are thorough and her photos are plenty! Our babies love her and when things happen (like our water getting shut off) she pivots and makes sure the dishes are still clean and the cats have everything they need for our return.
Molly was such a great sitter for our 2 cats! She was on time (or early) every day, she spent time giving our cats some much needed attention while we were away and sent us photos of our cat daily. She was also very gracious to take care of a few little extras that we asked her to do. Molly is very responsible, reliable, kind and efficient. We are BEYOND satisfied with her service and would not hesitate to hire her again. She’s the best!
Leonardo took wonderful care of my two senior cats, including one that requires medication twice a day, while I was gone for the weekend. They were clearly well tended to when I came home. He was very communicative and lovely to work with. I would definitely choose Leonardo again and recommend others to do the same!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Braintree is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $42 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
