“April was exceptional and went above and beyond. She kept me informed about what she and our pup were up to and sent lots of photos of their long walks and snuggles. After each walk, she checked him thoroughly for ticks and she even watered my plants while we were away. I felt confident my pup and home were in excellent hands! Highly recommend her!”
“Kayla took care of my two pups while we were away for a long weekend. She wasn’t fazed by my grumpy old guy…. She just rolled with his moods and communicated to us daily. Made it a bit easier to leave my babies home while we were away.”
“Lila was a great sitter for Minnie. My very anxious “baby” took to Lila very quickly and that is not her norm, so I felt very comfortable leaving them together. Lila communicated and kept in touch well. She was very respectful of my home and even left a cute doggie thank you note. Minnie seemed to love her and I know this because often when I get home Minnie us sitting by the door waiting. She was sleeping in the living room and much calmer than my usual returns. I recommend Lila as responsive, responsible, and respectful. Thank you!!!”
“We were thrilled to have found Fiorella! She was so incredibly communicative and thoughtful all throughout and our sweet but anxious rescue dog and shy cat loved her. We felt so much peace of mind having her watch our pets, especially as our dog has only been with us for six months. We loved her so much we can’t wait to have her back in a few weeks. .”
“This was our first Rover experience and Kayla was terrific! She updated us daily with pictures and comments of Gracie while we were away for the week. During our meet and greet she was very professional and kind with us and Gracie. We 100% recommend her and will be contacting her again if we go away. She did a great job taking care of our pooch!”
“Jared was great, attentive and communicated well. Was glad to have someone caring for my dog while he was in cone head mode and had to stay behind on Thanksgiving! Would definitely re-book”
“Belle was amazing! She took the time to come meet with us before sitting and understand our dogs and their behavior. She is incredibly responsive. Belle made sure to keep us updated throughout her stay, with photos and videos. Thank you for taking such good care of our dogs. We can’t wait to have you back!”
“Meaghon was the best! She went above and beyond to care for all of our pets and our home while we were away for the holidays. She communicated often and sent us a lot of pictures. She made sure our pets had lots of love and attention while we were gone. We were so lucky to find her and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I am in the middle of a career shift and have some additional free time on my hands and would love to turn my love of dogs into a little extra cheese... "who said cheese, can I haz some cheese". If you dog is in need of some extra walks, I am your man to keep that pup happy. I will be going to class in the evening, I can come over and walk your pet between 9:30am and 3:30pm. I regularly walk my own dogs over 2 miles everyday I am a loving a trustworthy person who has had or been around pets for over 20 years. I promise to treat your pet as if they were my own
“We had a wonderful experience with Kayla! She took excellent care of our dog and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us confidence that our dog was happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated our dog like one of her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and genuine love for animals —I focus on making them feel secure, understood, and cared for just like they’re my own. I'm new to Rover as I'm sure my profile shows lol However, Im able to show reviews & plenty of pet love I've given thus far 🥰 This job is equally as enjoyable for mee as the beautiful fur babies ❤️ (maybe more) Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my bookings to make sure each pet gets consistent attention, care, and reliability. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or boarding, I build my day with their needs in mind so I can provide dependable, stress-free care I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent as possible, whether in my home or the client’s home. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable by following their normal feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions, while also giving them plenty of attention and affection.
About: Hi, I’m Krystal! I’ve spent the last 15 years surrounded by animals, ranging from high-energy puppies and kittens to gentle seniors. I understand that your pet isn't just an animal; they’re family. I create a calm environment where your pet will receive personalized attention, regular exercise, and plenty of belly rubs. Whether it’s following a strict medication schedule or mastering a new trick, I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine so you can travel stress-free. I can also provide frequent photo updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing! I am currently a grad student working part-time. I'd love to fit your furry pal into my flexible schedule! Here are my available times and days below: Monday: 8 am-3 pm, 5 pm-7 pm Tuesday: 8 am-11 am Thursday: 8 am-11 am Saturday: 10 am - 2 pm Sunday: 10 am - 2 pm *Overnight visits can be scheduled outside of these hours When I visit your home, my goal is to provide high quality care while keeping your space exactly as you left it. I am highly respectful of your privacy and property. I am extremely diligent about locking doors, setting alarms, and ensuring gates are latched. I double check that pets are safely away from the door before I enter or exit. During drop-ins or walks, I focus 100% on your pet. This includes playtime, leashed walks, and, of course, cuddle-cuddle sessions. I will always refresh water bowls and clean up after your furry pal. For overnight sittings, I’m happy to bring in the mail, water plants, and ensure your home stays tidy and secure while you’re away.
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life and I am a huge animal person. I've taken care of dogs of all different sizes and breeds. I love getting to know new pets and their unique personalities! I work during the evenings from 2:45-11pm so I have time during the mornings and afternoons. My days off are Friday and Saturday so I have more availability then. I can walk your dog, play fetch, take them to the dog park or anything your dog loves to do. I take my dogs walking or hiking on a daily basis, and they love to swim.
About: I have a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and four years of hands-on experience working in both a veterinary clinic and a dog kennel/daycare. I’m currently a first-year veterinary student at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, continuing to build my knowledge and skills in animal health and behavior. I’m comfortable administering medications, including injectable medications such as insulin, and have experience caring for dogs with behavioral challenges, including dog-aggressive dogs. My own dog has these challenges, so I understand the importance of patience, proper handling, and creating a safe environment for every pet. I also have experience caring for a variety of animals, as I have a dog and cat of my own. I’m passionate about providing pets with the same attentive, compassionate care I would want for my own. I’ll be starting my first year of veterinary school soon, so my exact class schedule is not set yet. I expect to have the most flexibility in the afternoons and evenings, and I’ll plan my pet care schedule around my classes. My veterinary school schedule may vary from day to day, but I’m committed to being reliable and communicating clearly about my availability. I’ll also have flexibility on weekends and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine. I prioritize trust and keeping each pet’s routine as consistent as possible. For overnight stays, I provide a calm, comfortable environment and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. For drop-in visits and walks, I follow each pet’s individual routine and instructions, including feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and exercise needs. With four years of veterinary clinic and dog daycare experience, along with my current veterinary education, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior or health and handling a variety of personalities and needs. I also have experience with dogs who may be reactive or aggressive toward other dogs, so I take introductions, walks, and environmental safety seriously. My goal is for every pet to feel safe and cared for while their owner is away.
“Logan is so kind and was so attentive to our pup! We definitely plan on using his services again. We feel very lucky to have found him on Rover. We are new to it, and I was skeptical about how it would work but Logan is a gem!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Charlton Depot
It’s difficult for me to find the words for this review. While we were away one of our dogs had a medical emergency. Because of Bill’s dedication, careful monitoring, and experience I was able to get home in time to say goodbye to my boy. Without Bill and his care for our fur babies I would not have made it home in time and my boy would have been in prolonged pain and stress. As well as sound decision making he then made sure our other dog was emotionally supported by spending an extended amount of time with her until we could get home. Bill remained in constant communication with us, our emergency contact, and the medical staff. His exceptional communication skills helped us orient ourselves to the seriousness and make informed decisions from an ocean away. He went well above and beyond his job description of being a dog sitter and was just an incredible person and support. Bill is the standard for pet care and is the best option for owners who deeply value their pets.

FAQs for House Sitting - Charlton Depot
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Charlton Depot on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,364 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Charlton Depot. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Charlton Depot walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Charlton Depot maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Charlton Depot 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!
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.
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 .
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.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
