“1st. Using Rover and we were so blessed for being able to meet Emma. She made it so easy to interact and communicate thru the app. The fur babies just loved her. Emma truly has a gift for the ability to communicate with our babies. Not only was this the 1st time to use Rover / Emma. It was the first time in years we have taken time away from home without a family member staying behind to take care of the pets. I have had Bully bread dogs for over 40 years. Multiple at a time. (currently we have Stella (BullMastiff/American Bulldog mix), Jake (BullMastiff / Cane Corso), Charlie (American Pitbull), Teddy (Yorkie), and Bambi (French Bulldog puppy), oh and nots forget Olie the cat. When you have this mix of personalities, moods , jealousy it takes a special person to walk into that dynamic for the first time and pull it off. Emma thank you very much you did great. Until next time ?”
“Amber proved herself to be a reliable dog sitter. She stayed over at our house and was respectful of our home and property. She cared for our dogs with love and affection, giving treats/Kongs, their daily feedings and allowing them some extended time outside. Amber is highly recommended. We will be contacting her again! Thank You very much Amber.”
“Kendra was fantastic! She is a great communicator with lots of updates and pictures. ♥️ She walked the dogs often and knew how to handle our dog that barks at others on a leash! Thank you for taking great care of the crew!”
About: I have a 1.5 year old golden retriever that I have single-handedly raised. I grew up with family dogs, cats, and farm animals. I have a Bachelors of Science degree in Animal Science. I interact with dairy farmers for my full time career and get to bring my dog along with me! I am a full-time employee that is 50% remote and 50% on farms. I have more flexibility when working remotely to walk, feed, and check on your furry friends. I currently make sure my pup gets at least 2 walks a day. On the weekends, I can cater to whatever schedule you need. I understand inviting a stranger into your home and your dog’s safe space can be overwhelming. I want to mitigate that as much as possible by not being a complete stranger and build trust with you as the owner and with your pups. I will try my hardest to make sure your dog feels safe, cared for, and protected while under my care.
“Chantelle did a fantastic job and is extremely nice! Dogs were very happy when we saw them and she ensure the doors were locked and the key was where we agreed. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Ashley took really great specialized care of our babies while we were away. She made sure to keep us updated throughout our entire trip and we never had to worry about them! This was a great experience and we will absolutely be using her services again!”

“This was our first experience using Rover and we We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Jimmy. He was communicative throughout the entire process, sent us lots of pictures and videos of our puppy while we were gone, and left our house cleaner than it was when he arrived. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone and we hope he (and his dog Stella, who our puppy loved) is available next time we need a sitter.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Fall River is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $28 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 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 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.
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.
