“Marlin stayed with Alyssa for the weekend and had such a good time! She sent multiple photos during his stay and took great care of him. Would definitely book again with her again. Thank you!”
“Linh is fantastic! She house sat for our two pups while we were on vacation for a week. I'm usually nervous about leaving our pups with a new sitter, especially after we had a bad experience with one (not thru Rover) a few years back. But Linh's knowledge and calm, confident demeanor instilled confidence in me so I was able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She sent updates and frequent photos throughout the week. Not only did she leave our house the way we left it, but she washed all of the sheets and towels which was not expected but very much appreciated. We will be using her again for our next vacation and I know the pups will be excited to see her again!”
“Julie-Anne was great with our mini labradoodle! She took good care of him over the weekend and he was his happy and usual self when we got back. They got lots of walks in, she texted frequent updates and photos, and he had a great time. We're already looking forward to them staying together again!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely wonderful dog sitter! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my dog. She was caring, reliable, attentive, and treated my dog like her own. I received photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog. I will definitely book again! 🐾❤️”
“Tricia was fabulous! Our dogs loved her. She took great care of our dogs and our home while we were away. She left our house spotless, took the dogs for long walks which they loved, and kept us updated with texts and photos. We were delayed getting home due to a blizzard, and she could not have been more flexible or helpful. Cannot recommend enough!”
“Julianna took great care of our two dogs in our home for several nights. She was especially good with our skittish dog, taking things slow and moving at our nervous dog's pace. We also got plenty of pictures while we were away and came home to a clean house and two happy dogs.”
“Olivia went above and beyond taking care of our two dogs and the house! She communicates clearly, made me feel comfortable that our fur babies were being taken care of, and left the house even cleaner that how she received it.”
About: I have 15+ years of hands-on pet care experience, including 10 years working in a professional grooming shop as a bather. That experience made me very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities and energy levels. I have also owned and cared for large-breed dogs throughout my life, including Dobermans, Rottweilers and pit bulls, so I am genuinely comfortable with big dogs. I understand that a 90-pound dog who is excited to see you is a very different experience from walking a 15-pound dog! I have experience administering subcutaneous medications to my own pets and am comfortable giving oral medications as directed. I am also happy to follow specific feeding, walking and care routines. Most importantly, I treat each pet as an individual. I want to know their routine, quirks, favorite things and what makes them comfortable so I can care for them the way you would. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate weekday walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, including the popular midday hours. I’m also available for morning and evening visits and can often accommodate weekends with advance notice. I’m happy to work with recurring weekly schedules as well as occasional care when you’re traveling or have a long day away from home. I care for pets in their own home with the same attention and respect I would expect for my own. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding, walking and medication instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets are safely settled before I leave. I respect your home and privacy, clean up after pets, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while in my care.
“Eric cares or our pups like they are his own. Our younger one can be skittish with new people but took to him right away. And Eric cheerfully puts up with our old fellow's senility and the challenges yhat brings. We feel very fortunate to have found him!”
“Becki went and above and beyond while house sitting and taking care of our beloved tripod. She took such good care of our pup. She followed all instructions and requests and even took her out on additional walks. Becki is the best!”
“This was our first time with a pet sitter and we know our boy (labs - 85lbs and 70lbs) are a handful, but Nicholas did a great job! Both pups were tired and happy when we came back. Nicholas was very patient with them, sent us a bunch of pictures of the boys having a good time, was punctual and we would absolutely have Nicholas watch them again!”
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup is full of energy, your senior pet needs extra patience and care, or your pet just loves some extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m also happy to keep up with your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines. 🐾💕 I work full-time, but I’m happy to dedicate my evenings, mornings, weekends, and days off to caring for your pets. I’m very intentional about making time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll work with your schedule and follow their normal routine as closely as possible! I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for!
“Hailey was amazing! We left for a week and she took wonderful care of our two cats and our small dog at home. She stayed overnight, sent us updates and pictures every day, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was extremely professional, reliable, and communicative throughout the entire stay. It was obvious our pets loved her. They looked happy and comfortable in every update, and when we got home, they seemed relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. She also treated our home with great respect. We highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and we will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs for over 2 decades and continue to love doing so. Love taking dogs for walks, going to dog parks, etc. Can accommodate most special care requests. Happy to stay the night at your place, or if your dog is social, have her/him over at mine. I have an Alaskan Klee Kai who is 5 years old, 16 pounds, and well-socialized. I’m currently working part time (middle of the day) and will have lots of time to take care of your fur babies. For home visits, I can typically do 7:30-10am, 3-5pm, 7-11pm, but I make arrangements outside of these times with advanced notice. I have a big yard that my dog enjoys. It is not fenced in but we can use a long leash so dogs can run around, play fetch, and explore.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I took care of my family dogs and they’ve relied on me and I am happy to take them on walks, feed them, bathe and play with them. I work full time through the week and I am available anytime after 5pm. I can board with a few weekdays and weekends as well. I live in an apartment complex and he is always on a leash and we live next to a dog park that is walking distance.
“Wendy did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs. She communicated constantly and sent regular photos which I really appreciated. It made being away much less stressful. My pets looked happy, well cared for and everything at home was in good shape when I returned. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to others.”
“Nyah was absolutely wonderful with Nelly! She was incredibly kind, reliable, communicative, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Nelly was in good hands while I was away. She kept me updated and clearly gave Nelly plenty of attention and care, which means a lot to me. Nelly was happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I got home, and that’s really all I could ask for in a sitter. I would absolutely trust Nyah with her again and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her in the future. Highly recommend!”

Larissa is a gem - she was so warm and energetic with our golden retriever! She was always responsive on text and sent us updates throughout the weekend. She asked good questions and followed instructions carefully. She also was very respectful of our home. I would definitely book her again!

Every time we plan a vacation, we make sure to check whether Haley will be available to take care of our shepherd during those dates of our absence. She is very caring and reliable. We told our closest friends about our experience, and they asked us to give them a way to get in touch with Haley. We have only positive emotions from our side—and from our beloved dog as well.
Sarah fully understands the assignment and executes the plan like a pro! She stayed in our house and sat our two dogs (including a blind, partially deaf old lady) for a week while we were out of the country. She gave us frequent updates, pictures and videos, and kept the house so clean. She was a delight to work with and we are not easy customers! We look forward to the next chance to work with her! Highly recommend Sarah!!
Nicholas was incredibly communicative and worked great with our dogs! One of our dogs is a covid dog and has a hard time with introductions to new people, and he liked Nicholas right away. They had quite a few medications (our dog dog a skin infection right before we left) and he handled it all really well. Would definitely recommend Nicholas!

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 Framingham Center 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 Framingham Center 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Framingham Center 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.
