About: Hi, im Soléna and I’m a big animal lover! I work in the service industry and I have a pretty flexible schedule to help walk your pups. I have experience with puppies, small, and large breed dogs. My 90lb Anatolian shepherd, Violet, is an 11yo that I have had since she was 9 weeks from the rescue. I'm currently working part-time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to come by 3x a day on work days, and 4x a day on days off. I do not offer a boarding option for my home. My dog as she's gotten elderly can be reactive to other dogs in her space. For walks, depending on behavioral notes, we would avoid other animals on the street, i.e. crossover, and avoid areas largely populated with dogs.

I can care for your pet in my home on a 1-acre lot on a private road/area. Or, I can travel to your home as necessary.

About: I have watched dogs all sizes, breeds, and personalities since I was 16 for neighbors, friends, and family. I have fed pets, taken pets for walks, and hung with them. I do work full time but I’m around weekends, week nights, Thursdays, and Tuesday mornings. I have two dogs myself so I know how to manage time. I can crate your dog, make sure they are in a comfortable environment, make a close relationship with our dog and have no danger around them.

About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m caring, patient, responsible, and will treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and get plenty of attention while in my care. I currently work as an automotive technician in Braintree MA. I work from 7-5 most days, with a lunch break at 12:30. I am more than happy to provide service on my lunch breaks as well! I am off Wednesday and Sunday every week, along with some holidays off. I am able to house sit any day of the week, and able to walk, or care for three times a day on work days and all day on days I don’t. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight house sitting, and boarding. Having cared for four cats and two dogs of my own and through family pets, I’ve developed a genuine love for animals and their unique personalities. I’ve also occasionally pet-sat for family, and I always go the extra mile to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I believe every animal deserves patience, affection, and personalized attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving plenty of love, attention, and the best possible care while they’re away. I do also have my own floor in my apartment that I can have pets in!

About: Due to my current employment situation, I have lots of schedule flexibility to suit the needs of your animals. I have been caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes since I was young and have done it on a more regular basis over the past 8 years. I have grown up always having dogs and cats so I am extremely familiar with caring for animals. Even the most skeptical dogs quickly trust me for my loving nature. I am always prepared to pay full attention to any animals in my care and to respond to any challenging situations that may come up. I truly love animals and am very excited at the opportunity to help others with the care and support of their furry friends! Your pet’s day will look exactly like it does when you’re with them! I pride myself on helping dogs to keep their routines. I am happy to offer whatever enrichment activities we discuss for your pet such as car rides, dog parks, play dates etc but also understand these are not for every dog so will never do anything we didn’t explicitly clear. I am very adamant about understanding the ways you keep your pet safe at home. I am extremely cautious when coming and going. I keep an eye on all pets in yards, even when they don’t typically require this. In 15 years of dogsitting, I have only had one dog slip away from me and handled it quickly and safely.

Right from her initial visit, I knew that I had hired someone who was not only professional & knowledgeable, but was also passionate about caring for animals!

About: Hi There, Thanks for your interest in my services. I’m currently the dog dad of a Staffy/Husky mix named Ocean. She is a very good girl- dog and human lover at heart. Ocean is a very loyal companion and friend. I have grown up with pets in my home since a child and truly love all animals. I’m very familiar with animal handling and have worked with puppies, teens and seniors of both cats and dogs. When previously house sitting and boarding for neighbors and friends for the past 8 years I’ve learned that I am a true animal lover and protector with knowledgeable traits on body interpretation and breed familiarity. Home services are so important! Pets are happier and experience less stress when they are home. Diet and exercise routines are uninterrupted. Travel trauma for both owner and pet is eliminated— plus the guaranteed comfort and safety of your family members. I take pride and joy in caring for each and every client individually. I am a full time Pet Caretaker available for daily drop ins and house sittings— with due notice I am pretty flexible and understanding. During boarding or daycare pets will be taken out every 2 hours in groups that best fit their temperament and energy level. Please review 7 day cancellation policy details. A meet and greet will be required for a proper evaluation of your pet. All pets must be up to date on all vaccinations- with proof. Mandatory questionnaire must be filled out prior to scheduled meet and greets to give an accurate evaluation as well as getting every important detail about your pet. My home has a fenced in yard. All pets will be supervised 24/7. Must be crate trained or training. No aggression what so ever, this includes resource guarding of foods, toys, anything. Safety is the number 1 concern always. Pet CPR certified and insured.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years, and what sets me apart is my hands-on experience and personal dedication. I successfully trained my own dog from 4 months old to ring a bell when he needed to go potty, bark to communicate when he needed to go outside, and follow basic commands like sit and wait. I’ve also cared for senior pets and have experience adding medication to food for both dogs and cats. I genuinely love connecting with animals and take pride in providing calm, consistent, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day—whether that’s for walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and cared for. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean environment with a spacious, secure yard where they can play and relax. When caring for pets in apartments or condos in Boston, I’ve had great experiences following each pet’s routine closely, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe. I always prioritize cleanliness, clear communication with pet parents, and a calm, respectful approach in any space I enter.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Buzzards Bay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Buzzards Bay is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 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 October 2026, there are 1,239 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Buzzards Bay. 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.

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 Buzzards Bay 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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Buzzards Bay with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
