“Lauren was so friendly and sweet. She came over the day before for a meet and greet and our dogs took to her very easily. Lauren was very respectful and responsible and took great care of our dogs both times she can’t to our home. I would highly recommend Lauren!”
“Britney was absolutely the best person for my little guy. I am super picky just because he is hyper and can be a lot. Britney went out of her way to make sure he was well taken care of and sent me a lot of pictures which I absolutely loved and needed. 100% reccomend and will be using again in the future. Thank you so much.”

About: I have loved all animals and especially dogs since I was a child. Growing up we had dogs and many other animals (including chickens, ducks, caged pets, snakes etc) As a kid neighbors would often ask me to walk their elderly dogs. I would also have friends and family ask me quite often to take care of their fur babies. My family is home full time and your dog will get tons of love and affection. Easy access to a fenced yard and your dog can go out as much as he/she wants. I also enjoy bringing the dogs (with permission of course) on hikes that are right on the side of my house. I understand how important it is for your babies to get exercise! I have experience with older dogs who need medication or have special needs, I'm also willing to cook any special meals for your babies. My family and I are excited to meet your dog and give them a fun, safe, loving place to stay while you are away. Safe, quiet neighborhood on a quiet street. Full-time care and attention. I currently work at home, I am available 24/7 to provide the proper care to your babies. I live with two other family members (adults) who are also home most the time to give love & attention to your babies :) I provide treats (with permission) have a bunch of toys around for your babies, leashes, potty bags, blankets, a spare large dog bed & a crate if you do not want to bring your own. The crate will only be used with owners request otherwise it is not used. 🙂 Also animals are allowed on beds & furniture **** I do have ferrets but they are in their own room and completely away from any animals that are in my care****
About: I'm a vet tech, but I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including large breeds. I love taking dogs for walks, playing with them, etc. My experience as a vet tech has further enabled me to care for dogs even better. I work M-W and F 8-6, so I have three full days off a week, but would be willing to fit in walks or care on work days if needed. I would be respectful of your space and take your dog on walks or play out in the yard as long as would be needed. I love spending one one-on-one time with dogs and giving them some extra play time.
“Vanessa was great with my sister’s cat Hades who is usually very shy but warmed up to Vanessa very quickly. She was on time and fed him his meal just as instructed. Lovely individual, will definitely book with her again.”

I will also send you a short form to fill out with necessary details like care instructions, emergency contacts, vet and immunization information, etc.

“Leah was a lifesaver! She was able to watch my cats on short notice. She was extremely friendly and communicative and sent detailed updates on her visits and how my cats were doing. Thanks, Leah!”
“Haylee took care of my dog Rio over the weekend for three 30-minute visits. From the get go she was communicating with me to ensure the visits went smoothly. Through the visits she fulfilled all requests and went above and beyond even asking to walk Rio during her last visit. I would definitely call her again if I need someone to take care of Rio.”

During the week, I can also stop by for quick potty breaks, feeding, or check-ins to make sure your pup is comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I’m lucky to have a fenced-in dog park right in my neighborhood, which gives pups a safe space to play, exercise, and socialize. You can trust that your dog will always be cared for in a secure and loving environment.

“From the moment we met Laine, we knew she was the person we needed watching our 3 boys (cats) while we were away for a week. Laine has a very calming, soothing presence and that translated directly to her care while we were away. I left her a list of important info and FYI’s and she went well above and beyond, every single day. She treated our boys as if they were her own and was so communicative with us the entire time. I’m a bit of a nervous cat mom so this was invaluable and put my mind at ease far more than I could have anticipated. She sent amazing pictures and left our space better than even we left it. That’s saying something because our boys are very messy. She earned their trust with patience (along with some treats and catnip) and a special touch. She even let us know when one of our boys had a bit of an issue with diarrhea. Her attention to detail is second to none. I’m so grateful to have found her here, she truly cares about animals and gave us peace of mind that our boys were in the best hands possible. I truly believe that’s something money can’t buy! Laine is simply incredible, I’ll spend a long time trying to find the right words to thank her. We can’t wait to book her again for our trips!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fall River
Hailey is the best sitter. We have had her on multiple occasions and she is very attentive to our senior dog. We were just away for the Christmas week and she took exceptional care of Dunkin. She is very trustworthy and thorough and pays attention to all the information that goes along with the care of our boy. She communicates well and keeps us informed of all that is going on. I would highly recommend her and definitely would hire her again for my pet services.
We absolutely loved Amanda! She was super responsive and did a great job with our babies. She did a meet and greet to go over everything and asked very appropriate questions. She had to administer pills to one of our dogs and followed the instructions perfectly. The dogs took to her immediately. We will definitely book her again for our next trip.
Cassidy was great taking care of our little boy rook. You got constant updates with photos and he appeared to be having time of his life playing ball outside like we usually do. She gave us updates on everything you did by a phone message along with all the pictures and the videos that she sent. We had never left a little boy alone before because he always came with us and we were always concerned about leaving him with somebody else without us. Definitely have good faith in Rover right now and will you be using them again. Have another upcoming trip planned and you should be able to stay at our house taking care of rook for in about 2 to 3 days.

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 traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fall River 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 to 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.
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 Fall River 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Fall River 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 Fall River. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
