“Kelly is a wonderful sitter! She followed directions well, her response time was quick and I know that my dogs warmed up to her. I highly recommend Kelly and look forward to hiring her again. Thanks, Kelly!”

“Grace is super friendly, arrived early, and my dog absolutely loved her. I really appreciated that her calendar accurately reflected her availability, which made booking so easy. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my dog will be in such good hands while I’m away. Can’t wait to have her back!”
“Nina is great! I have a special needs kitten and an middle aged cat and she treated them both with a lot of love and care. So thankful to have her close by. We also appreciated all the pictures she sent. We will definitely reach out next time we need to go out of town.”
About: I have always had animals and I’ve been watching my friends and family’s pets for over 10 years. I have experience with every size dog from French Bulldogs to Great Danes. I’ve taken a break from corporate life and am available any day to hang out, walk, feed, play, cuddle, or just about anything your pet needs. I will visit your pet anytime of day or night to make sure they are happy, healthy and well taken care of. If it’s just a ten minute drop in, an hour walk, adventure to the dog park or an overnight, my goal is to make your pet happy and comfortable.
About: I’ve lived with two reactive, senior dogs (a pittie and chihuahua) for the past two years and get the privilege of volunteering with the dogs at the shelter near me weekly! Experience with medication administration (topical and oral), basics needs (walking, feeding, playing) and overnight sitting. Current Schedule for drop ins (as someone who works full time) is: Monday: 5am-7am, 6pm-midnight Tuesday: 5am-7am, 8pm-midnight Wednesday: 5am-7am, 6pm-midnight Thursday: 5am-7am; 9pm-midnight F: 5am-7am; 9pm-midnight Saturday/Sunday: anytime I have experience leashing/walking/caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes and behavior. I know when they need space, or when they want to play. I also am very careful about diet - have experience dealing with dogs w/sensitive stomachs or allergies so you can trust your dog’s feeding needs with me. Also have experience working with dogs who have special needs, including deaf and blind.

I have plenty of flexibility the next two weeks to take care of your furr family! I will keep them entertained and occupied while providing a safe and loving environment.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life and have a deep love and compassion for them, and other animals of all shapes and sizes. I prioritize custom care to fit your pet’s unique personality and boundaries to ensure that not only they are happy & safe, but you are at ease and comfortable with me caring for your precious baby! Small to medium dogs only please ❤️🐾 I am highly available throughout the week, Wednesday through Sunday. I can come by as early as 7am and as late as 10pm to make sure your furry friend has their food, water, and necessary medication at the time they need it, so you don’t have to stress! I have one indoor-only cat who is the love of my life! I work part time as a receptionist at an animal hospital so my cat is up to date on all of his vaccines and exams. He has a sensitive tummy and feline asthma as well as a heart condition, so I am highly familiar and flexible with cats with any kind of conditions requiring medication administration, special diets or processes.
“Simmy was a pleasant sitter. Our kittens are very shy but they were very comfortable with her and warmed up to her instantly. Simmy was very helpful and we appreciated how she followed every instructions we gave us exactly with no hesitation. She cleaned up after them and we are lucky to have her as our sitter. She loved our babies and they loved her.”

About: Hello, My name is Hieu. I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I met my first dog since I was 6 years old and the love for dogs all grew inside me. I love taking care of dogs and gladly do my best for each dog’s needs, as I know that every dog is special and they have different personalities . I would love to take care of your dog to be healthy and happy. I’m available every day, I will make sure that your experience with me makes you as happy as possible. I’m currently working from home full time, I’ll make sure your dog get the cares they deserved and all the requirements will be met.

Your dog will always have my attentions, I would love to walk/run with your dog at the park. I have a big crate if your dog need to be crated.
“We had an amazing experience introducing our pets to Micky for the first time. You can tell he’s nurturing and attentive. Looking forward to a boarding service in the near future!”
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.
About: Hi! I’m Sara, and I’ve always had such a big love for animals, especially horses and dogs! Growing up, animals have always had a special place in my heart, and I truly believe they deserve all the love, patience, and care in the world. I love spending time with dogs, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them some extra cuddles and attention. Every dog has their own little personality, and getting to know them is honestly one of my favorite things! I know how much our pets mean to us, so I’ll always treat yours like my own. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! My typical day is pretty relaxed and flexible, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! I love starting the day with a nice walk, some fresh air, and of course, lots of playtime and attention. Throughout the day, I make sure there’s a good balance of exercise, potty breaks, meals, cuddles, and downtime. I also love getting to know each dog’s personality and sticking to their usual routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I do work night shifts on select days, but I’m always upfront about my availability and make sure your pet’s needs and schedule are a priority. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and little updates throughout the day because I know how reassuring it is to see your babies happy and well cared for! 🐾 I live in a safe, pet-friendly gated community with its own secure dog playground, plus the Quincy Dog Park just around the corner—perfect for plenty of playtime and socializing! 🐕✨

Pet 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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Braintree is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $43 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.
As of November 2026, there are 10,222 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Braintree. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Braintree. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 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.
