About: I've had dogs my whole life. I have experience with puppies through seniors and small to large dogs. I have a lot of flexibility with my time and can be available as needed. Happy to take dogs on walks or care in their own home. I am a stay at home parent, so I have a lot of flexibility for times I'm able to help out. I'm happy to work around whatever your schedule and needs are. I am very good at reading a dogs mood and cues for their needs. I can tailor my care for the needs of each individual pet. Whether they are more comfortable being inside their own home, like to play in the backyard, or go for walks in the park, I can guarantee they will have a great time and feel safe.
“Diana did a really nice job caring for our two kitties whilst we were away on vacation for two weeks. She insured they had enough food (and adjusted as needed), water, brushed our long haired Kitty, scooped the litter boxes, and played with them both. She also went above and beyond by bringing in our mail daily and also a few packages that arrived. We really appreciated Diana’s attention to detail and the wonderful daily updates she provided on Rover. It gave us peace of mind that our fur babies were in good hands and well cared for so we could enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend Diana. She’s a sweetheart. Thanks so much, Diana!”
About: I can handle dogs of all different breeds and love to treat them with the love and respect they deserve! I love what I do! I am currently working a full time job during the week Monday through Friday, so weekends work best for me to be able to take care of dogs. I can easily crate a dog if needed and will use what is needed at my clients house to be able to keep the dog safe and sound.
“Jordan was literally a lifesaver. I initially hired her to come check on my cat a few times a day while I was across the country, but after a disaster with another pet sitter she ended up caring for my five month old puppy Scout too. My puppy can be quite a handful, but Jordan did everything possible to care for her. She went way above and beyond taking care of both of my pets, including regularly carrying Scout up a steep flight of stairs because she can’t climb them well. I got plenty of updates and pictures and never once doubted my pets were in great hands. She even brought my cat some new toys, which he’s been batting around for hours. I can’t begin to express how much I appreciate her care and attention in an emergency situation, and I know my pets feel the same way.”
About: I've cared for both Dogs and Cats for over 15 years including volunteer work, paid sitting, and personal pet care. I have a passion for making pets feel safe and comfortable in the absence of their owners. I work full-time, but available for early morning, midday, and post-work walks and care. I am available on most weekends, and can stay overnight if needed. I walk, feed, play with, and administer medication as needed for Dogs and Cats. I am patient with all pets, and easily accommodate any special treatment needs.
About: Since my PhD, I've found furry friends to be some of the best companions for different life moments, both the ups and downs. I’m naturally patient with animals and observant of their behaviors. Especially how they react to different cues so I can best connect them. I work very close from home with flexible schedule. Just let me know 3 hours ahead for a dog walk and 3 days ahead for short pet visit/ pet sitting. Before any pet walking/sitting/ short visit, I would like to visit first (with some treats) to get to know the pets. Only when I know they are comfortable with my presence can I take on the job. I would love any details about your pet so I can give them more tailored attention and care while you’re away.

“Jessica was so wonderful and patient with Bean! She sent me lots of pictures and I am really grateful that she was able to get him to play and eat all his food since he can be moody and picky sometimes.”
About: I have volunteered at two different local animal shelters, been a dog-walker through WAG for 2 years, and my rescue dog was an emotional support animal at Boston Children's Hospital! I grew up with dogs and cats and love animals! I am currently a graduate student at Northeastern and looking to make extra cash while spending time with dogs! I used to have a rescue yellow lab and an Australian Shepherd mix! I currently have two cats. I love being active and am happy to take your dog on a walk, hike, or run! I used to dog-sit my former neighbor's black lab and take her on 3-4 mile runs everyday! I am familiar with local parks and walk routes! Please contact me if interested!
About: Hi, I'm D'Mitri - bookish plant dad and Legal Analyst seeking to foray into pet care as a fun and enriching side gig. I'm originally from New Mexico, where I grew up on four acres with a horse and three dogs. Since then, I have pet sat occasionally for friends and family but would love for it to be a larger part of my life. My partner adopted a sweet Cur, Auggie, (40lb) last summer who lives with us FT. He is mild-mannered, adores other dogs and receives regular socialization at both daycare 2x/wk and daily at the on-site fenced dog park and many green spaces on the premises. My preference is for small to medium sized dogs but do have the stature and experience to manage larger breeds as well. All ages welcome! We live in Dorchester (Columbia Point) with my boyfriend of nine years in a complex along on the Harbor Walk. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you! I WFH and the nature is my work is largely project-based, which affords me a lot of flexibility. On the average day, I wake at 6 and am in bed by 10:30. My partner and I live in a standard 1BR but our apartment complex is unique for the abundance of green space it offers - and even a dog park. Just right outside our front door is a huge lawn where others can often be spotted exercising their pets. I am also open to caring for your pets in the comfort of your own home! Rest assured that they will be cared for to your exact specifications and with lots of love.
About: I’m a dedicated law student balancing the challenges of school while working to cover housing and tuition costs. Though I’m not able to have a farm full of dogs just yet, I’m passionate about caring for pups while their owners are away. I can walk, board, or simply spend time playing with your dog. Dogs bring me so much joy and comfort, and I would love to share that with your pet. I have been a dog owner since I was a kid and a rescuer since I was 18. I have a dream of one day opening a dog ranch to help clear shelters and give more dogs a loving home. Right now, I have my own dog, Huey, who is 3 years old and a big part of my life. By trusting me with your dog, you’re not only giving them care and attention but also supporting a student working hard to achieve her goals and make a difference for animals in the future. I’m a full-time student with weekends off and a generally flexible schedule, including some weekdays available. I’m happy to offer boarding on weekends, and during weekdays I’m available in the evenings for dog walking and playtime—perfect for pups whose humans work full-time. I have two friendly dogs of my own who love to play and socialize. During breaks and certain holidays, my schedule is even more flexible, so I can accommodate more time with your furry friends. Let’s connect and chat about how I can help care for your dogs. I will prioritize your pup’s safety and comfort at all times. I will securely crate your dog when needed and travel to and from your home in my car, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience. You can trust that I will care for your pet in a safe, loving, and calm environment where their well-being is my top priority. I will also help with any other tasks to make things easier for you and your furry friend.
“Elena is AMAZING!!! She is so sweet, kind, caring, patient and very accommodating. Our dog, Sydney is very shy and nervous around people, but she quickly warmed up to her. Elena took great care of Sydney. She gave detailed feedback, updates and pictures of Sydney during each visit. I will definitely rebook with Elena again. I highly recommend and trust her! Elena is the BEST!!!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life from a Black Lab and Yellow Lab to a Boxador, and now my sweet Golden Retriever. Having dogs around from their puppy months all the way into their senior years has given me a huge soft spot for animals, and taking care of them is just second nature to me. I’m super hands-on and love bonding with the dogs I watch. I enjoy teaching them fun tricks (I’ve gotten my own dog to master spinning and rolling over!), taking them out for walks, trips to the beach, or just going for rides in the car with the windows down. I also have plenty of experience with overnight sitting, so you can count on me to stick strictly to your dog’s usual routine and make them feel right at home. Whether your pup needs a high-energy adventure or just someone to snuggle with on the couch while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own. I currently have a super open and flexible schedule right now, so I can make your dog my main focus! Since I’m not working a strict 9-5, I am around to keep them company and stick to their regular feeding and walk times. Whether I’m staying overnight at a client’s home or caring for your pets during the day, my priority is making sure they feel happy and comfortable. I do my best to maintain their normal routine, following all instructions for feeding, medication, walks, and any other specific needs. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable when their owners are away, so I give them plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I also love sending photos/videos and regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!
“Sydney was so great! She fit us in to a busy holiday weekend last minute and was very communicative about our two cats--she even cleaned up some vomit (yuck!) and tracked our nervous cats to their hiding places to get pictures for us. Would def recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life for friends, clients, family, and neighbors. I’m someone people trust to take great care of their furry family members. I’m a big animal lover and would love to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away 🐾 I currently work a full time job where I am onsite in Quincy 2 days a week. I have flexibility during the work week on days that I am remote and I am open on weekends!!! When watching others animals, I’m able to do whatever is needed to keep your animal comfy and happy. Daily walks, giving medications, giving treats, etc. Anything to make sure they are happy!
About: Hello- I have cared for dogs of every kind since I was around 10, walking dogs in the neighborhood. Finally, after putting it at the top of my Santa list every year growing up, my first family dog came in HS. He was an Italian West Highland Terrier , so we landed on the unique name Buddy, naturally. I love dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. I believe in nurture over nature. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Dog parks , forest walks and the beach are always options ♥️ Currently serving South End, Savin Hill, Squantum and South Boston neighborhoods I am currently very available, especially during the week. I am able to take your dog out as frequently as they may need. Available at short notice as well. I can wake up early and can wake up at night for puppies as well. I have a fenced patio and a nice surrounding neighborhood for walks. I have no pets. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can also bathe your dog if they’re willing 😍
About: I have had an English Springer Spaniel growing up that I love to take on hikes, swimming at the lake, camping, and on lots of walks. I have trained my dog to do a handful of tricks! I have experience dog and cat sitting for extended period of time as well as older dogs who require extra care and medication. I am a working professional that works full time in Chestnut Hill, MA; I love to take care of dogs on my days off and take them for walks before and/or after work. I live in East Boston and work in Chestnut Hill and I’m looking for pet care opportunities in the greater Boston area! I grew up taking care of dogs and cats, both my own and friend’ pets. I a comfortable with feeding, walking, providing any medications to your pets. I am willing to do walks and longer overnight sitting when needed and available.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Cohasset is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $40 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 8,802 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cohasset. 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 Cohasset 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 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 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.
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 Cohasset with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
