About: I have been Professionally Pet sitting for 10 years now. I’m passionate about all animals especially dogs and cats. I love going for hikes, and being outside with nature. Having a dog by my side makes it even better :) I am exclusively one on one with your pets, so there is no stress for them. I am a professional dog and house sitter, I don’t just take care of your dog I take care of your home while you’re away, and I will always leave the home exactly as I left it or tidier : ) I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies in the future : ) I have a part time serving job where I work 5 hours max at a time 4/5 days out of the week, I would still be able to walk in the morning and right after I get back to them I always meet my new clients and their pets ahead of time to talk about the dog’s personality and behaviour and the daily routine. I can offer dog sitting at my clients homes or my tiny house where I do have a kitty at home

I follow a structured but flexible schedule to meet each pet’s unique needs — from morning feedings and walks to playtime, grooming, and medication when needed. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and comfort throughout the day, whether it’s a puppy learning routines, a senior dog needing extra care, or a cat who enjoys quiet companionship. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or a client’s home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment tailored to each pet's needs. If in a clients home, I would need to bring my dog with me. In My Home: I offer a cozy, pet-friendly space where pets are treated like family. For dogs, I ensure they have access to a secure yard for play and relaxation, and I follow any training or health routines you’ve established. Cats have quiet, comfy spots to relax, along with engaging toys and activities to keep them stimulated. I make sure to maintain a clean and hygienic environment, including regular litter box cleaning, and I provide structured feeding, grooming, and playtime.

I focus on keeping your home secure and comfortable, following your rules for safety and cleanliness, and always ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for. Whether it’s taking extra care with your pet’s toys, keeping their space tidy, or simply giving them the comfort of a familiar face, I aim to make your pet feel safe and happy in your absence.

Laura has looked after my cats several times, and always does an excellent job. The cats are well cared for, and she sends lots of photos and informative written updates so I know all is well while I’m away.

Laura was great with our kitties! We got daily pictures, videos and updates on their time together while we were away, making us feel good that our pets were being well taken care of. She is reliable, responsible and appears to really enjoy the pets trusted to her care! Can't wait to have her back!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Bridgewater on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or travelling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer poop breaks during a Bridgewater stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover based on what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:

  • Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
  • House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
  • Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.

Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.

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 Bridgewater 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 do not have any disqualifying offences.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
