“Erin took excellent care of our dog Arthur for a long weekend. She was communicative before the stay and arrived on time. She sent texts and picture updates throughout the stay, and she left our home so neat and clean it was like no one had even stayed there. We would highly recommend Erin for her dog sitting services.”
“Our first time hiring outside of family membets so we were extremly netvous. The rover site was a nice easy platform and process as well. We chose Janice and we knew immediately at the meet and greet we chose the right person for us and Louie our 2yo Cavapoo. She had us feeling at ease and comfortable thruout the visit that we had no issues to worry about. She provided a pic and feedback to us while away. She was very professional,friendly, kind and knowledgable. Through our comunications with her i knew she loved and nutured all animals and safety was of utmost importance. She is a very loving and conscientious knowledgable caretaker and would not hesitate to hire her again! The very best and Louie and our family are very fortunate to have found her, we thank you Rover!!”
“Laura stayed with our dog for 2 days and was fantastic. She sent lots of pictures, followed our directions to a T, gave him lots of attention and walks. She was very caring, and responsive and we felt extremely comfortable with her there because of it! Highly recommend and will definitely be scheduling with her again.”

“Bridget took the best care of our furbaby Arlo while we traveled for a week. It was the first time we had left him this long and she took amazing care of him and kept us updated the entire time (she takes great pictures!) which was so reassuring for us. Arlo is a playful, somewhat anxious young dog with a few medical issues and Bridget handled everything perfectly and proactively. Left our place even neater than we had. Thank you so much Bridget!”

“Catelyn was great! Very communicative and sent plenty of updates and photos of our dogs while we were away. Our house was clean and tidy when we got back, and she even put our pool furniture away for us to prepare for an incoming storm. Would definitely recommend!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better first-time experience with a house sitter! From start to finish, Natalie was incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and proactive. She kept us updated throughout our trip with sweet notes and photos which brought us so much peace of mind while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions to the letter and when we returned home, everything was spotless. It was clear Emmy was well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found someone so dependable and kind. Highly recommend without hesitation!”
“Andrew took great care of our pup, Ella. Ella has not always had an easy time when we leave but she seemed really at ease when we got home and Andrew provided us updates throughout our time. We will definitely have him back!”

“Sydney was a wonderful pet sitter. She took great care of both our cat and dog and was attentive to all of their needs. We returned home to a spotless house, which was an added bonus. We hope to see Sydney again soon!”
“Robin is the BEST! She sent us pictures the whole trip, was thorough and detail oriented. And somehow we came home to a cleaner house, happier pup, and a yummy salad!”
“Meeting Emily was a relief after our other pet sitter fell through in the days leading up to our trip. Emily was willing to do a last minute meet and greet and asked thoughtful questions about caring for our dogs and cats. She was communicative and our pets seemed to enjoy her presence. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I have 1-2 years of experience of caring for dogs and pets throughout college! I have specifically cared for medium to large sized puppies and seniors! I am great at dealing with energetic dogs who love to play as well as chiller dogs who love to lounge. I am currently a full time graduate student at Boston University, but I am largely available on weekends and nights! I can house sit on Friday and Saturday nights, and can go on walks everyday at night! My apartment building has its own fenced dog park with room to run and play. I can bring my own pee pads, treats, and toys!
About: Does your pet need a little extra care? Mine too — and that's exactly why I do this. My 9-year-old terrier, Lucky, has chronic kidney disease, so I'm experienced with daily medications (including injections), special diets, and post-surgery aftercare. If your pet's routine has to be followed exactly, I get it — I live it. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight house sitting in YOUR home — early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I don't board in my home (my pup has little-dog syndrome and only tolerates about two dog friends!), but I'm happy to come to yours, where your pet is most comfortable anyway. Cats welcome too! You'll get photo updates at every visit, and I'll follow your instructions to the letter. Pet care fits around my full-time job in the best way: I'm available for early-morning visits before work, evening drop-ins on my way home, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I care for pets in YOUR home (I don't board in mine…my pup has little-dog syndrome and keeps a very exclusive friend list!), so your pet stays in their own comfy routine. Need something outside those windows? Message me! I'm happy to try to make it work! Your pet's safety and your home are treated like my own. I follow your instructions exactly: feeding, medications, and routines down to the letter (I'm experienced with oral and injected meds and special diets). Doors and gates stay secured, pets are never left unattended outside, and you'll get photo updates at every visit. If anything ever seems off with your pet, you'll hear from me right away. And everything is locked up and tidy when I leave.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for the last seven years. For the last two years, my fiancé and I have had three dogs: A pug, a Shih-poo, and a beagle. Our puggy and beagle recently passed. I have experience with senior dogs, administering medication, and some puppy training. I also have experience bathing animals. I’m generous with the treats and even more generous with the snuggles! I work from 9-5 M-F but am remote on Mondays, Fridays and alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I can do drop in visits for walks any time during weekends and in the evenings and occasional afternoons during the week. We have a fenced in yard at our home, but our babies also get walks. With me, your pet will come first and always be treated like one of my own.

We are so happy we found Kayley! She watched our dogs while we were away for the weekend and it was so nice finding someone who we felt comfortable leaving our dogs with. Kayley is super sweet, communicative, and absolutely loves dogs. It felt easy to trust her with our fur babies. We will definitely be using her again 😊
Jennifer and Matt were amazing with our dog, Kenzo. We were out of town for a week, and they house sat while we were gone. They spent a ton of time at our house with Kenzo, and we got a ton of pictures. Kenzo was very happy when we got back. Would definitely book again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Cohasset is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $56 per night.

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 Cohasset 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 Cohasset 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 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!
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.
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 .
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 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 .
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.
