About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and had the joy of raising my own Boxer for 13 wonderful years. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve provided pet sitting for many friends’ and family members’ dogs, both in their homes and in mine. I’m an active person who loves getting outside, and I enjoy having a four-legged companion join me on long walks and adventures. I also have a spacious SUV, making it easy and comfortable to safely transport dogs of all sizes if needed. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’m committed to providing loving, reliable care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I work from home mostly and available mornings, lunch and afternoons. Also available on weekends to pet sit at my place or at the pets home. I live in a condo near a park and reservoir with nice path for walking dogs. Happy to stay at pets home as it might be most comfortable for them and their routine.
“My first time leaving my anxious dog with a sitter while she was on medication - Michelle didn’t miss any pills and Sabrina seemed happy and calm when we returned.”

About: I'm a mother looking for flexible working conditions. I've had dogs of my own and dog sat for friends in the past. I adore dogs and love to play and spend time with them. Sometimes all a dog needs is company (and food) . If you have specific instructions about walks or dog-sitting I'll happily to follow them (my pitbull had a chicken allergy so I'm used to the specifics). I can also administer medication if necessary. My schedule is open and my home is open to small and large dogs. If you have any questions for me feel free to message me I'm happy to answer any inquiries. My schedule is currently extremely flexible! Most of my daytime responsibilities can be done at different times so I am able to work with client needs! Caring for pets in my home and/or the clients home would involve frequent walks, playtime, feeding on your schedule depending on the time of day/amount of time they are with me, and any other thing you might request is absolutely open for discussion!
About: I have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past three years, gaining experience working with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a college student, I find myself missing my two dogs every day and I want to help owners with their pet needs, all while getting my animal fix. I understand how hard it can be for owners to be away from their pets and to trust new people with them. So, my goal is to put both you and your pets at ease in what can seem like a stressful time, and give them plenty of love while you’re gone! I’m a college student with time in my schedule most days to walk or visit with your pets. On weekends I can spend all day caring for your pets! When caring for pets in your home I follow all owner instructions exactly regarding feeding, activities, training, and interaction with other animals. I pay particular attention to any changes in behavior, appetite, or physical activity.
“Tess looked after my puppy for me while I was at work this summer and I couldn’t think of a better person for the job! She was so communicative and detail oriented, took great notes on his eating and bathroom schedule. My roommates continuously commented on how sweet she was with him and how well he did with her! I couldn’t recommend her more!!”

About: I absolutely love animals. I grew up with a cat before my family adopted a senior dog and got a puppy. I’m able to administer medication to pets, as we did that with our senior dog, but have also cared for our (no longer) puppy his entire life. I helped train him and helped him understand fetch, which he now loves. Additionally, I often cared for my grandma’s cat both when she couldn’t and just because I love her cat. I’m currently in grad school and intern a few days a week so my schedule is a bit weird, but I am always happy to work something out! I’m generally available for walks/drop ins Monday and Friday at 5pm, Tuesday after 6pm, Wednesday before 5:30pm, Thursday both between 11am and 1pm as well as after 6:30pm, and all day on the weekends. Please just message me and I’d be happy to find a time that works! In someone’s home, I’m always respectful of their limits with their pets. If at a friend’s, I always make sure to ask whether it’s okay if their pet can be on the couch, given a treat, etc.
About: I have dog and cat sat for the past 7 years for multiple different families in the Yarmouth Maine area. I have been in different situations that have tested my abilities as a pet sitter. Dogs and cats immediately warm up to me. I currently work a full time job for a Doctor in the Yarmouth area. I can walk dogs after work most of the time. We sometimes don’t work at the office on Fridays so I would be able to walk dogs during the day. I can do overnight care, however I would only be able to feed / walk in the morning and evening before and after work. I am more flexible on weekends. Whenever I am caring for dogs I will keep them on a leash when I walk them. I make sure to follow the clients rules for their pet (feeding, care, and walking routine).

About: I have had pets (dogs and cats) my whole life and love being around them. I am a graduate nursing student hoping to spend time with your pets and help however I can! I am currently a Nurse Practicioner graduate student looking to spend time with some animals while not in class. I am excited to help out as much as I can! I am respectful of people's homes and routines for their animals. I love to be outside and will make sure your pet gets exercise. I live in a safe and walkable neighborhood.

About: Whether your pet needs a simple walk and some company or a little extra care, I’ve got you covered. With 10 years of veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and needs, from happy, healthy pups to seniors, anxious pets, and animals requiring medications or post-op care. On weekdays, I’m available after 2 PM for consistent one-hour walks or drop-ins. I also offer boarding and sitting, with flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and care without rushing through visits. Safety and trust are my top priorities. With 10 years of veterinary experience, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior or health and making sure pets are cared for according to their individual routines and needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions carefully. For boarding, I provide a calm, clean, supervised environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and consistency. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, medications, and feeding instructions are handled carefully so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: Neighbors, family members, and friends have trusted me to watch after and walk their dogs daily! Dependable, caring dog walker who treats every pup like family. I provide safe, fun, and engaging walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and personality. Whether your pup loves adventure or slow strolls, I’ll make sure they’re happy, exercised, and cared for. What sets me apart is the care, patience, and responsibility I bring to every pet I work with. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm a graduate student who works part-time, so I will have lots of time to play and walk with your pups on weekday mornings and afternoons! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I want every pet in my care to feel safe, relaxed, and right at home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so I can provide care that works best for them. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in yours, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while always keeping a close eye on their safety. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos throughout their stay or visit. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away!
About: I love caring for dogs and find myself craving more time with these special pets. I lost my dog a few years ago but I am not ready to adopt my own quite yet. I’m on Rover to care for others dogs as if they were my own I currently work hybrid 9-5. I’m free most Fridays-Mondays and I also have availability Tuesday-Thurs depending on the week. I have a pretty flexible schedule I have a fenced yard and a pet proof home. I live in a quirt neighborhood close by to a park so while walking and caring for the dog we will not be exposed to busy environments
“Eliza is one of a kind and truly wonderful. When we had to leave our dog, Molly, for the first time, we left it to Eliza and there could not have been a better person to keep the dog and us well cared for. Truly appreciative of her flexibility and communication with us throughout the booking.”

“I am so glad I found Aaron! He was very good with taking care of my rabbit. Oscar takes some time to warm up to people, but he warmed up to Aaron quickly. He also made sure I was updated frequently. I felt at ease knowing that my little guy was well taken care of while I was away. If you need a trusted caretaker, I highly recommend Aaron.”

About: I've been doing pet care since I was 8 and have lots of experience with animals of all ages and personalities. Typical animal care from me looks like refilling food and water, walks, cleaning litter boxes, and finding creative ways to keep your animals thoroughly entertained. This summer I'm taking online college classes so my schedule is super flexible. The only set times I'll be busy doing virtual classes are from 11:00-4:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Please let me know what times work for you. I will always make sure to keep your dogs on leashes when not in fenced in areas to ensure your pup's safety is accounted for.
“New to all this and trust is hard to give to someone to walk into your home. Fiona was very responsive and friendly. We did a meet and greet with my dog before she came by herself. My dog loved her and I knew Fiona was the one I could trust with my dog from my dogs reaction with her. I look forward to using Fionas service again when I need help with my dog for a drop in visit. Highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Anastasia was fantastic! She went out of her way to make sure our little scaredy cat Jake was super comfortable, and even went back to double-check on his comfort. She also was very communicative and prompt. And even brought in our mail! We will definitely be asking her for her services again! She’s wonderful!”

About: I have grown up with pets my entire life! I have also been a responsible and trustworthy petsitter for numerous families in the RI area. I have experience administering medication and caring for senior pets. I am happy to provide references as needed! I am currently working part-time, so have lots of time to give your pets some TLC! I am available every day in mornings and evenings. I get to know the pets and owners before starting visits to make sure I understand and follow all the owners preferences.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brighton
Elli was an absolutely great sitter for our Cocker Spaniel. She responded to our Last Minute Request very timely and allowed us to have an evening out of hotel without Winnie while traveling. She was early for Start Time and extremely flexible with our request to be a little late. Clearly she took great care of Winnie!! Very professional with communications. Would highly recommend Elli for taking care of your pet!!

Emily was absolutely wonderful! She was able to help me out with a last minute request, and I really appreciated that she took the time to meet with me beforehand so we could make sure everything was a good fit before officially booking. She kept me updated throughout the visit and sent plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m so thankful I found Emily, and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Tess looked after my puppy for me while I was at work this summer and I couldn’t think of a better person for the job! She was so communicative and detail oriented, took great notes on his eating and bathroom schedule. My roommates continuously commented on how sweet she was with him and how well he did with her! I couldn’t recommend her more!!

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.
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 Brighton 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!
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 .
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 , 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 .
