“Emily is competent, experienced and very animal-oriented. My two took to her immediately. She arrived right on time, sent updates and pictures as promised, and left the house in perfect condition. She asked good questions and appreciated the list of instructions I left for her. Into the bargain, she is a bright, interesting and all-around delightful person. I highly recommend her.”


“Hayleigh was amazing. She accommodated my last minute request in a pinch. I felt as though she genuinely cared about my cats and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable when I had a last minute change of plans. She gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely trust her with my pets again.”

“Sam is wonderful and it's clear she really loves animals. When she arrives at the house she gets down on the floor immediately to greet the dogs and, for me, that's the best sign of a "dog person". She did a great job sitting for our three small dogs for a long weekend. She sent lots of photos and videos, gave medicine to our senior's on schedule, had to wrangle two that hate the snow (and she had to shovel!), and left the house spotless. We already have her booked for another stay! We trust her completely and highly recommend her.”

“Carissa took excellent care of our two cats! Sent daily photos and texts which is so reassuring! She even put down ice melt for us when we got snow. Highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”

About: I have experience with dogs of all ages. I have grown accustomed to a range of feeding, walking, grooming and play schedules and also have experience administering medication. I can handle dogs around other pets, acting to keep everyone involved comfortable and safe. I have lots of free time after classes and only a part time work schedule in the summer. I am able to make time morning, afternoon and night! Until August 15th, I will be living with two roommates. One of which have a cat and a dog who are very friendly. I aim to keep boarding to a minimum until I move into my new space where I will have a lot more room and there would be no. concern with pets interacting and living with other pets that they do not know.
About: I’ve taken care of family and neighborhood dogs ever since high school. I recently started working as a dogwalker for someone else. Feel free To message me with any questions! Because I do have a Dog Walkikng job my primary availability is Saturday and Sunday availability on most weekdays after 3pm. Other days or times can be discussed if needed. Any overnights booked with me I would be with your pup from 8pm-8am. Overnights will only take place at the clients house and a meet must be completed before the stay. In clients homes I will always make sure your pup has fresh water at all times. I strive to give your pet the best care it deserves. I treat all clients like my own!
About: I love dogs and I’ve had a dog since I was two years old so most of my life I’ve had dogs and I’ve like had experience with them I have a dog myself, so I’m able to take care of a dog very easily. I have to wake up early for my dog so that won’t be an issue taking care of another dog. I’ll make sure I always keep an eye on the dog that I am watching over. Take them out for a walk and also keeping an eye on the dog and giving them attention. Just always make sure you’re aware of your environment.
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and helping out with friends’ and family members’ pets. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like walks, feeding, playtime, and basic training reinforcement. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and energy level and do my best to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. my dog struggles with anxiety, so I also have some experience dealing with that. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility and availability for pet care. I’m available on weekends and typically have flexibility with my scheduling during typical working hours (9-5) to care for your pet! I’m happy to work around your pets normal routine for walks, feeding, playtime and check ins. I treat pets like I treat my own, with patience, consistency, and close attention. I carefully follow any instructions you leave, keep pets secure on walks or in the home, and check in if I have any questions. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first.
About: What sets me apart is that I really take the time to get to know each dog and what makes them happiest. I’ve worked with everything from wiggly puppies who need a little help with training to older dogs who just want a slow, peaceful walk and some extra TLC. I’m super patient, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup wants to run, sniff, play, or just take it easy, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly. I have tons of free time, so your pet gets my full attention and flexibility. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a job it’s just a great part of my day. When I care for pets at your home, I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them. I stick to their usual feeding and walk times, give any meds they need, and just hang out to keep them company. I’m not perfect, but I’m always patient and caring, and I make sure to keep their space clean and safe. I’ll check in with you regularly so you know how they’re doing. If I’m watching pets at my place, I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax and plenty of attention. I’m pretty chill and try to keep things low-stress so they feel comfortable. Either way, I just want your pet to feel safe and cared for, even if I’m not perfect!
“Nadine did a great job with our five month old puppy! Our puppy loved her at the meet and greet. I wasn’t home at the time Nadine came to walk Sandy so Nadine sent lots of photos and videos and actively walked our puppy and played with her the whole hour of the visit. Nadine was very professional and went the extra mile for us, even fitting us in last minute, in between other obligations!”

About: Knowing your pets are a part of your family, its my intentions to provide an opportunity for your pet to at its best. That means learning your pets personality and needs. My Career also entails skills with animals care specifically for sick animals, not that I am veterinary doctor, meaning I help deal with acute health issues. Being a good listener and observer due to my Scientific Career it's only a matter of time before you realize that you pet just might be excited to visit, and even more happier to return to you. Thanks for asking. My work has very set routine. Therefore when I start a project I know the days that I am available throughout its completion due to having to let processes develop on their own. So I am able to designate time for pet sitting in a routine manner and flexible manner. If I know my clients needs, I can adjust my work accordingly. Thanks for asking. My apartment is definitely animal friendly, with only on carpeted room. I will always notify the owner or any health issue, and with coordinate with the owner emergency protocols. Outside, there is a waterfront your pet can visit for walks, large yards that the pet can explore, and even an enclosed area where your pet can be unleashed so they can get a chance to roam free if ever necessary. As far as individual animal routines for food and walks are concerned, I would only take on a job if I was able to provide the animal with its precise schedule. I find animals are more confident when they know what to expect. Thanks for asking.
About: I’m not just a dog sitter—I’m a partner in your dog’s happiness. With the experience of training and graduating three service dogs, I bring patience, compassion, and structure to every pup I care for. Your dog isn’t just another appointment on my calendar—they’re family, and I treat them that way. From walks to training to daily love, I help dogs feel safe, confident, and understood. Caring for dogs isn’t my side gig—it’s my full-time commitment. As a business owner, I have the freedom and flexibility to dedicate my days to providing top-quality care for dogs. That means your dog isn’t squeezed into a busy schedule—they get my full attention, patience, and time. This isn’t just a job, it’s my life’s passion, and it shows in the way I care for every pup as if they were my own.” Full-Time Care, Full-Time Love—Because Dogs Deserve More Than a Side Gig.” Every dog in my care gets more than the basics—they get a home. At my single-family house, dogs enjoy a safe, spacious fenced-in yard where they can run, play, and explore freely. Inside, they’re treated like part of the family, with comfort, structure, and plenty of attention. From walks and playtime to training reinforcement and quiet downtime, I tailor the experience to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup loves fetch, belly rubs, or simply lounging in the sun, I make sure they feel secure, happy, and cared for—just like they would at home.”
About: Growing up I’ve always had a dog in the house. I’ve always looked up ways to train my dogs and teach them tricks. I’d watch dog whisper shows to learn more about dogs and how to connect with them. I’m very passionate about giving my best care and love to all beings. I have a dog of my own right now that I treat like a child. She’s practically a puppy and I taught her so much within just a year of having her. I had my previous dog for 7 years and taught her so many things. I look forward to treating other dogs the same way. I have great customer service skills as well as being very optimistic and aware of my surroundings. I give my best work and never leave a project unfinished. I’m in between jobs at the moments so I’m open as of right now. I like mid mornings and afternoons. I have a dog of my own so knowing ahead of time helps prepare my day for her. I crate trained my old and new dog. I’m still teaching my dog who has an eating disorder how to free range the house without supervision. She’s still learning so I have to keep her on a leash so she doesn’t get into things she can’t eat. I keep toxic things out of reach.
“Leesha is one of the best sitters we've found on Rover! She's responsive, communicative, and goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are cared for! Leesha has housesat for shorter periods of time for us, but recently watched our two dogs and cat (and chickens!) for a week. She battled some loose poops, a food change, and the addition of extra meds all in a few days, but she didn't bat an eye! She even cleaned Leah's litter box without me asking! It's easy to see how much she cares about animals and we would trust her with our crew in a heartbeat!!”

“We were able to book Evan on short notice to spend time with our two cats when we had a sudden out-of-state schedule issue. Evan kept in contact with us and was respectful of our home. Our cats were happy and healthy when we got home, I can tell they were well taken care of and liked having Evan around. Thank you!”


About: I’ve been in a pet loving family since I can remember. Taking in animals in need and caring for neighborhood pets is something I have been doing since a young age. I am a go to friend for someone needing a house sitter while they are away or just someone to stop in to feed. I have pets of my own including a cat needing medication and have experience caring for cats with special needs. I would love to make my new part time job caring for your pet. I currently work from home, Monday through Friday and have weekends off. I can drop in for a visit or walk your dog anytime with some notice. I am very detail oriented and take pride in doing my very best. I have no issues following specific direction especially for high maintenance or high need pets. From my past experiences with many different kinds or animals I can safely judge when redirection or intervention would be necessary.
“Emily was wonderful! She communicated the entire time and sent reassuring pictures of my little girl getting all the cuddles she needed. She was also very respectful of my space and left the house in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend Emily and will book her again the next time I need a sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fall River
Sam was amazing!! She took great care of my dog and my mom’s dog (2 labs) when we were away for the weekend. She sent so many wonderful texts and photos to keep me updated and worry free. I would book her again in a heartbeat! Such a nice girl and very responsible/responsive.

Isabella stayed in our home and cared for your two dogs and guinea pig for a week in August. It was our first time working with someone from Rover and we were a little nervous in particular about our high energy younger dog who is prone to getting into everything. In short, she did a great job of taking care of our dogs and other pets and even changed our guinea pig's litter without being asked. The house was immaculate, sheets and towels washed and changed and pets very happy. She was mature, communicative and responsive to messages and to a last minute change in return dates. We would recommend her highly and we hope to work with her again. Thank you, Isabella!

Emily is competent, experienced and very animal-oriented. My two took to her immediately. She arrived right on time, sent updates and pictures as promised, and left the house in perfect condition. She asked good questions and appreciated the list of instructions I left for her. Into the bargain, she is a bright, interesting and all-around delightful person. I highly recommend her.

This was the second time my family has booked Leesha to house sit our two dogs and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a vacation and not wanting to worry about their dogs. Why board them when they can be safe in their own home. She is great with communication and sending daily pictures so you know they are okay.

Thank you for taking great care of Hazel with her food and walk schedule and keeping her warm and cozy during the winter storm. I appreciate your flexibility and understanding when our plans fell through and we had to come home a day early. Thank you again, Francene

FAQs for House Sitting - Fall River
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fall River on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,782 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fall River. 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 Fall River 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 Fall River 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 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!
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.

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.
