About: I have always been a go-to to dog and cat sit for friends and family that needed to know their fur babies would be safe. Whether it was for a check-in or staying over an extended period, the animals would be first priority. I am a remote worker with a semi-flexible schedule that allows me to care for your pet at any hour. I can generally work around any schedule that your pet needs. Any specific care that your pet needs will be adhered to. I ensure that the pups will be under great supervision and kept entertained. Walks and anything else needed will be taken care of as well.

About: Hi, I’m Zoe and I love all dogs! I’ve been pet sitting for many years now. I am used to having dogs in my home and caring for them outside of my home. I have experience with special needs dogs as well. I am home all day during the week as I work from home in the pet industry! I will run, walk, you name it! As long as the dog is happy and cared for! I have a fenced in yard. I have experience with all different sizes and breeds. I have cared for up to 10 dogs at once! I have a German Shepherd named Zeppelin. He LOVES dogs!! I have decided to walk/sit/board on Rover because I genuinely enjoy it and would love the opportunity more often. I work from home and I actually work in the pet industry! Because I work from home I am home all day during the week. The pups love sitting by me and popping in my meetings to say hello! I treat all pets in my home like my own. They are members of the family so they are allowed on all furniture and my bed. I want your pet to be as comfortable and happy as possible during their stay!

About: I have taken care of my pets for years, mainly cats, but I have experience with dogs as well. Either way, I love both the same! I am able to administer medications, follow diet guidelines, and take care of accidents that may occur. And most of all, I can provide a cuddle or snuggle and unconditional love for your fur baby or babies! I currently have a part time job, but will be able to take care of animals full time soon! For now I can take care of animals Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays. I have one cat at the moment, I have helped to take care of him along with my parents for over 11 years. In recent years, as he ages, he has needed more medications which I have helped to administer, he is on a special diet and he also has some tummy troubles occasionally that I have helped to clean up. I also had a second cat that I took care of at the same time who needed a lot more care. He was a small, sensitive Siamese who was extremely overbred and who suffered from a lot of stomach issues. The two cats didn’t get along so the Siamese ended up living mainly in my room and our other cat had the run of the house since he had arrived in the family first.

About: Hi! I am Lakshmi and I personally have 7yrs of experience with dogs of all kinds. Me and my husband both love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. We would love to take care of your pooch while you are away. We promise to provide brisk walks, fun playtime, and of course belly rubs and cuddling for your beloved dog. So that you can have a guilt free vacation of your own :) Our schedule is flexible and your dog will never be home alone for long. The couch and bed are never off-limits. We separate the dogs during feeding times and ** safety is out top priority**. So we make it a point to do a meet and greet for all the first time clients. We have a six-year-old Labrador retriever boy named "Bruno" whom we adore! He is neutered and is very friendly. We fully understand all the hard work, effort, and commitment which goes into raising our fur babies. I totally understand how much difficult it can be to be away from your pet. We will do our best to make your vacation stress free by giving regular updates on your pooch is doing. We both have our own full time jobs and I work from home. So, rest assured that your dog is never unattended for more than 2 hours except when we are at the gym or have some errands to run. We have a friendly dog of our own at home to keep your dog company 24/7. There is no fenced yard but we live in a beautiful community and we do long walks and park visits(when the weather permits).

About: I volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am great with both dogs and cats. I grew up with my cat, Hepsiba, born before me who died when I was nearly 20 years of age. We were best friends before I knew what that was. Then at the age of 12 or so, my parents adopted 2 English cocker spaniels, brother and sister. Robbie and Flora. So I was taking care of three pets. Then I raised Bruce, a rescued black lab mix from August 2013 until 2025 with some breaks for the US Army. And I taught him very well; he passed in June 2025 but he will always be my companion at my side. For some time I carried him, 120 lbs, up and down flights of stairs. Sometimes from here to there, carefully, comfortably, gingerly. I have a background in psychology, and I’m a dog trainer and a bit of a behaviorist. I’ve taken care of pets for family members and friends. And did so professionally in the past prior to Rover, after friends got me into it, which I started in August 2025. I’m great with animals. After spending even just a short time with them we can often establish a connection or rapport, especially when training a younger pet (or caring for an older dog). I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, I could run with your dog, play with them, but mostly we’ll be doing what they want - within reason. I will basically be spending the entire time with your pets. We’ll wake up between five to eight in the morning, and we’ll go bed between eight and eleven at night. I’ll be up with them as they need and we’ll be in and out much more than is required. I am delicate and meticulous and believe in leaving no trace that I was there. I want my client after their time away from home and their animals to not be met with the mess that I could be leaving behind. I am committed to performing an act of cleaning based on the tools available.

About: I have been walking dogs at local shelters on a volunteer basis for several years. I have experience walking a variety of small and large breed dogs. My walks are 40 minutes long. I charge $25 per walk. My prices stay the same no matter what the breed or age. I would like to set up a meet and greet prior to any walks. Building a strong relationship is important. I am a retired veteran. I have plenty of time in retirement to walk dogs. I am available to walk dogs on Tues, Weds, Thurs, Sat and Sun. I do not offer boarding. I am out to serve the dog and the owners alike. I want both to be happy with my services. I am capable of feeding. I can walk multiple times in a day. I can administer meds as needed.

About: Hii! I volunteered at shelters but I preferred building a relationship with pets in Rhode Island :) I grew up around many dogs and cats. A fun challenge was when we adopted our German Shepherd puppy! Training him was a fun challenge, but it was harder (yet more rewarding) when we adopted his brother as well! Now they’re grown and trained but I can still see the little puppy they are in their eyes! I also have a senior dog that needs extra care, but I love making sure she’s comfy and gets her massages. I work a hybrid 9-5, so I can make time mornings and evenings for pet care. On my work from home days I am more flexible to do care during the day. Weekends are fully available! In your home I would make sure pets are in their designated areas and can’t escape! Cleanliness is the largest thing I would keep in mind while making sure your pet is comfortable!

About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, happy and well cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for my own pets and am comfortable with routines, attention, and companionship they need. I'm currently employed fulltime as a probation officer, but I am retiring in the near future, and I will have more time to devote to being a pet sitter. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I enjoy having a relaxed schedule and spending time with animals, so caring for your pets would be something I genuinely look forward to rather than a chore. I am happy to build my day around their needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship and attention. I also understand that pets do best when their normal routines are maintained, so I'll do my best to keep things familiar and comfortable while you're away. I enjoy exploring new places, but I am equally happy spending time at home with a furry companion. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. When caring for pets in someone's home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner's instructions carefully and make sure pets receive their meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Most importantly, I want pet owners to feel confident that their pets are being cared for by someone responsible, dependable, and genuinely happy to be there. I understand that every pet has different need and personalities, so I take time to get to know them and make sure they feel comfortable while their family is away. I am also respectful of the home and keep things clean and tidy.

About: I've had a dog in my life for the major majority of it. I've had 2 Shitzus, a German Shephard and an Akita. Quite the range. I traveled across the country with an Akita and that was such a great experience. I am very patient by nature and will care for you furry friend and give them all my attention and love. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. There are 3, sometimes 4 days a week where I’d be away for 6-7 hours. I like to be as transparent on everything. I’m not concerned about the dog having an accident in the house, it’s more of making sure they won’t be overly stressed out or anxious at that amount of time. I have a very secure fenced in yard that your pet will enjoy. There is a park directly across the street as well and I will also walk your dog around the Elmhurst neighborhood. I have a modest sized home with hardwood floors. Your pup is allowed on the furniture if its ok with you. A tired dog is a happy dog and I plan to play with your dog inside and outside the home. Your dog(s) or cat(s) will be my top priority. Other than work a few days a week which is stated above I’d be spending plenty of time playing and relaxing with your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and live in a safe neighborhood. I have outdoor camera security system as well. I will take great care of your pet.

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. As a teenager I fostered dogs of all ages and sizes with my mother, from litters of puppies to energetic rascals to oldies slowing down. Since I was a baby my house always had at least one cat, sometimes up to 5 at a time, and our house was where the neighborhood knew to bring any cats that were found needing help. I have had cats with special needs, and three big black shelter lab mixes. As an adult I have developed a hobby interest in dog training, and I know how much structure, clear communication, and strong leadership can help put a dog at ease and keep them safe. I love all animals and volunteered for 4 years in wildlife rehabilitation. I'm moving back to Rhode Island and taking on small jobs as I establish my schedule and routine, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for immediate requests! I have my own car, so I can easily come to your home for home stay, drop-ins, and walks! My family dogs were crate trained, so I understand routines of crating, feeding, taking out, etc. I am also comfortable with different types of leads, such as harnesses, gentle leads, prong collars, and soft and hard muzzles. I have also taken care of dogs who have specialty needs, such as indoor litter boxes, doggy diapers, and specialty diets. I have administered oral medication, in both pill and liquid form, to both cats and dogs.

About: I’ve been working in the veterinary field for 5 years. All my life I had a soft spot for animals. Big or small. I would be the perfect person to babysit ( yes I said baby sit because they are our fur babies ) your pet because your pet would have my FULL attention. I will treat your pet as if he or she was my own. Animals hold a special place in my heart. Every time I see one it’s like love at 1st sight. “When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal, I see a living being, I see a friend, I feel a soul” I do work at a vet hospital, I will try to rearrange my schedule the best I can ! And when I’m not working I will be with your pet ! I will care for your pet as if he/she is my own. From experience I know pets get flustered when routines are messed up just like we do ! I will follow any routine you have so they don’t miss a beat.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Dighton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Dighton is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $22 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 8,117 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dighton. 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 Dighton 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 Dighton 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 Dighton. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
