“Hannah did a fantastic job watching our pups. We have a Newfoundland and Great Pyrenees and she handled them (all 250+ lbs of them!) great! She kept to their normal routine and gave them lots of love. She sent updates and pictures which was so thoughtful. She even helped us in a pinch with an additional pup. Would certainly ask Hannah to watch the boys again and would recommend her to anyone who asked! Thanks Hannah!”
About: I’m the proud owner of four dogs of my own: three Shiba Inus and one Collie mix! Living with four dogs has taught me that every pup has a unique personality, individual needs, and their own special way of showing love. I have plenty of patience, affection, and attention to give, whether we're enjoying a walk, playing together, or simply relaxing and snuggling. I understand the importance of maintaining your dog's routine and paying attention to their individual needs, including special diets and medications. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide care in your dog's own home, where they can enjoy familiar surroundings and routines while you're away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet in someone else's care, and I will treat your dog with the same love and consideration I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!
“Kelly was amazing with our Luna! She went above and beyond to care for our pupper: taking her on long walks, to the lake, playing with her, and sending us lots of updates! I couldn’t recommend Kelly more highly!”
About: I have always had animals and I’ve been watching my friends and family’s pets for over 10 years. I have experience with every size dog from French Bulldogs to Great Danes. I’ve taken a break from corporate life and am available any day to hang out, walk, feed, play, cuddle, or just about anything your pet needs. I will visit your pet anytime of day or night to make sure they are happy, healthy and well taken care of. If it’s just a ten minute drop in, an hour walk, adventure to the dog park or an overnight, my goal is to make your pet happy and comfortable.
About: While I may not have a dog of my own just yet, I’m a devoted cat mom and lifelong dog lover! I’ve grown up around dogs and have plenty of experience caring for the pups of friends and family, whether that means going on walks, keeping them company, or making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. I decided to turn my love for animals into something meaningful by connecting with pet parents in my community and lending a helping hand! I understand that your pets are family, and I’ll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and care I give my own cat. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply some extra company and cuddles, I’d love to be there for them! My schedule is pretty flexible! I work part-time at Starbucks just three days a week, and spend most of my remaining time at home balancing schoolwork and fitness. This gives me plenty of availability for last minute dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. Don’t hesitate to reach out with the dates and times you need, and I’ll get back to you asap! Every home and pet has its own routines, and I’m happy to work with yours! Just let me know your house rules, your pet’s needs, and any specific instructions you’d like me to follow beforehand
“We are so pleased with our first experience having Maddie stay at our home to care for our deaf dog and elderly cat! Maddie checked in with us regularly and our pets and home were just as we left them. Our anxiety prone dog was definitely happier to be home with Maddie than in a kennel. We would definitely recommend using Maddie to care for your pets. We hope she is free next time we go away!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for the last nine years. For the last few years, my fiancé and I have had four dogs: A puggle mix, a pug, a Shih-poo, and a beagle. Our pug and beagle passed in 2024-2025. 🌈 I have experience with senior dogs, administering medication, and some puppy training. I also have experience bathing animals. I’m generous with the treats and even more generous with the snuggles! I work from 9-5 M-F but am remote on Mondays, Fridays and alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I can do drop in visits for walks any time during weekends and in the evenings and occasional afternoons during the week. We have a fenced in yard at our home, but our babies also get walks. With me, your pet will come first and always be treated like one of my own.
“Kailey was great! We have a brand new puppy and our older dog injured her paw, so it certainly wasn’t the easiest job but she handled it like a pro. She was communicative and professional.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve not lived a single day without having one or two dogs in my home. I have such a special place in my heart for dogs and no matter what kind how big, how mean, or nice it is I will make sure it is cared for and loved as much as it can be. I work part time at a nursing home in Medway, but my hours are not extremely long, and I have the flexibility to leave when needed to care for pets if they are located nearby. During the school year, I am a student at Bridgewater State University, so I will primarily be looking for pet care services in that area. My classes end no later than noon each day, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings, as well as in the mornings when needed before class. When caring for pets in my home, I treat them like family. I love spending time with them, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention to make sure they feel loved and not ignored. My dogs at home and I spend a lot of time on walks and hikes. I also have a fenced in backyard where they can safely run and play. I am very comfortable handling larger dogs on leash and can manage any that may pull. When I care for a pet at a client's home, I make sure they have everything they need while I am there, like fresh food and water. I also make sure they get lots of playtime and attention, and toys to keep them entertained. I will ALWAYS follow every pet's individual routine and make sure they are comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.
“Laura stayed with our dog for 2 days and was fantastic. She sent lots of pictures, followed our directions to a T, gave him lots of attention and walks. She was very caring, and responsive and we felt extremely comfortable with her there because of it! Highly recommend and will definitely be scheduling with her again.”
About: I have nine years of experience owning and taking care of an adopted dog. I have about two years of additional experience pet sitting and walking with dogs of all sizes, from young to senior pups, as well as cats. I am a recent college graduate currently job searching, so my schedule is very open at the moment. I am available most weekdays and weekends for overnight stays or daily check ins. The safety and health of your pets will be my number one priority. I will make sure your pet gets more than enough attention, exercise, and love!
About: I have a dog of my own, she’s the sweetest. When it come to your dog needs you’ll have no problem with that at all I’m currently working part-time. My schedule is quite flexible.Monday through Thursday I’m usually available for the most part. When I’m free I try to keep myself busy My dog is well fed, athletic, healthy, walks, hiking. Hoping I came bring the same energy to your home. Most dog love the outdoors and being adventurous
About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Animals love me and I love them. I don’t have any pets at this time and would love to help care for yours. I’m currently self employed and create my own schedule which is very flexible. I have plenty of free time to care for pets. No worries for frequent potty trips. My home has a fenced in yard so perfect for playtime. Lots of birds and squirrels parading around for amusement. Very comfortable and reliable to come to your home as well.
“Sara took great care of my Dane while I was out of town. She was flexible and responsive, sent updates on how my guy was doing- which was much appreciated being so far away and having not left him before. I would absolutely recommend Sara and work with her again!”
“Rebecca provided invaluable peace of mind on our recent week abroad. Her thoughtful questions during our first meeting, a thorough pre-trip care questionnaire, and regular communication/updates assured us our home and fur babies were in good hands. We returned to happy pets and plants and a spotlessly clean home. We rebooked with Rebecca for our 2025 trip with no hesitation.”
“Colleen did a wonderful job watching our dog for a week while we were out of town. She left our home extremely clean and was very communicative with updates and photos. We’d recommend her for anyone looking for pet care and house sitting!”
About: I’ve been a dog parent my whole life, sharing my home with everything from high-energy Shepherds, Dobermans, and Collies to lovable Pugs. Whether it’s managing big-breed energy or catering to gentle small dogs, there isn’t a personality, size, or temperament I haven’t cared for. Currently, I’m the proud parent of Oliver, my 13-year-old Plott Hound mix who has been by my side since he was just 8 months old. Raising a dog from his wild puppy months all the way into his golden senior years has given me a deep appreciation for every stage of a dog’s life. I know firsthand the extra patience, gentle pacing, and careful attention senior dogs need, as well as the structure and exercise younger pups thrive on. I prefer sitting in your home because keeping dogs in their own comfortable, familiar environment makes all the difference for their peace of mind. When I stay at your place or drop in for walks, you can expect: Strict adherence to their routine: Exact feeding times, daily exercise, and familiar sleeping arrangements. Senior & special care awareness: Patience with slower walks, mobility needs, and routine medication. Full respect for your space: Clean, secure, and respectful house sitting so you can enjoy your time away stress-free. Regular updates: Photos and quick check-ins so you always know your pup is happy and well-loved. Whether your dog needs an active walk around the neighborhood, a game of fetch, or just a quiet companion to lounge on the couch with, I’m always ready to treat them like family. I work full-time (9:00 AM – 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday), but my schedule is extremely flexible for in-home pet care: Remote Work Friendly: If your pup needs someone around during the workday, I can easily work remotely right from your home, giving them continuous companionship and mid-day potty breaks. Evenings & Overnights: My weekday evenings and nights are wide open! I’m fully available after 5:00 PM for walks, dinner feeds, playtime, and overnight stays. Weekends: My weekends are generally completely open for full-day sitting, longer walks, and plenty of quality time. Because keeping your dog’s routine consistent is my top priority, we’ll coordinate schedules ahead of time so your pet gets all the attention, exercise, and care they need. When caring for pets in your home, safety, security, and consistent routines are my absolute priorities. As a lifelong dog parent who currently cares for a 13-year-old hound, I understand how crucial it is to treat both your pet and your home with complete respect. During stays or visits, I strictly follow your specific instructions for feeding, walking, leash protocols, and house rules. I make sure doors and gates are double-checked, secure your home whenever I step out, and keep your space clean and tidy. I am comfortable managing medications, adhering to crate routines, handling big-breed energy, or accommodating senior dogs who need a gentler pace. Plus, you will receive regular photo updates and check-ins so you have total peace of mind while away.
“After using Rover for the past 6 years with multiple different overnight sitters for our doodle, we had our best experience ever with Lindsay. She is by far the most professional sitter we have ever had. She stayed for four nights, starting relatively early on day 1 and ending relatively late on day 5. We received updates in the mornings and at night along with photos and videos. When we got home, the sheets were washed and the best was made, the house was spotless, and our dog was happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Lindsay.”

Lora was great with our 1 year old husky mix Violet, who has very high energy and is quite stubborn and strong. We got daily updates and photos. She stayed at our house and took great care of the house as well, including filling holes that Violet dug in the backyard and washing the sheets. We would highly recommend Lora.

The average cost of House Sitting in Hanson is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $88 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 Hanson 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 Hanson 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 Hanson 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hanson. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
