“Vignesh is amazing! He was incredibly caring and attentive to my dog’s needs. He kept me updated throughout, was very responsive to messages, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It’s clear he genuinely love animals and go above and beyond to ensure they’re well cared for. I highly recommend Vignesh to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”

“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines. We appreciated the great communication and our boys were tired when we picked them up which is not an easy feat for our Australian Cattle Dog puppy! he definitely gave them lots of exercise and attention. Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”

“I had had a bad kennel experience 20years ago and decided never again. I have always been fortunate to have family or an employee care for my dogs. I needed someone for the above dates and knew if I was going to leave her, it would have to be in a home environment. Leaving her with Julie turned out to be the best decision I could have made for her. She was so happy in every photo I was sent. She slept with them and napped with Tiffany. She had dog friends to play with. She came home tired and v happy. I would recommend Julie in a heartbeat and I'm v reserved about making recommendations to people. Both she and Tiffany were wonderful to my baby Wiggles. Thank you guys.”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have always had a special love for them. I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to birds, guinea pigs, and more—so caring for them has always been a natural part of our lives. I truly love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. In my home, every pet is treated like family, with lots of love, attention, patience, playtime, and cuddles. I also keep owners updated by sending photos throughout the day, so you can see how your dog is doing and feel connected while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, comfortable, and truly at home. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, playtime, attention, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. I make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and exercise they need while staying with me. I provide a safe, clean, loving, and comfortable home where every pet is treated like part of my family. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space to play and explore. I always supervise the pets, provide a calm environment, and follow each pet’s routine and any specific instructions from their owner.

“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our older aged GSD. Her retriever got along great with our dog and we were very pleased with the level of care provided for our pup when it came to food accommodations (our pup gets anxious when we leave and struggles to eat sometimes). Needless to say, Sarah went above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the extraordinary care for our dog as well as all of the communication and photos she provided during the stay. Lastly, Sarah was quite flexible and accommodating with meet and greets, drop off times and pickup times. 10/10 and highly recommend! Thank you Sarah!”

Nicole was amazing! We couldn't have picked a better sitter for our dog. We left Lola with Nicole for an extended stay (11 days) and I could tell that she took great care of our dog. She provided the right amount of updates and photos to put our minds at ease while we were away. Nicole is very professional and very patient with a very pampered older dog. I highly recommend her.

We have never left our little dog with anyone but family and we had the best experience with Alexandra and her husband. We were kept updated on how she was doing along with pictures. We will not hesitate to use them again. Very happy customers and dog!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Grafton home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Grafton.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Grafton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 , 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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
