“Jill was an amazing pet sitter to my kitties. Litter box was scooped and neat. The kitties had plenty of attention, food and playtime with Jill. Highly recommend Jill and I am so happy to have found Jill who lives quite nearby.”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life and have a deep love and compassion for them, and other animals of all shapes and sizes. I prioritize custom care to fit your pet’s unique personality and boundaries to ensure that not only they are happy & safe, but you are at ease and comfortable with me caring for your precious baby! Small to medium dogs only please ❤️🐾 I am highly available throughout the week, Wednesday through Sunday. I can come by as early as 7am and as late as 10pm to make sure your furry friend has their food, water, and necessary medication at the time they need it, so you don’t have to stress! I have one indoor-only cat who is the love of my life! I work part time as a receptionist at an animal hospital so my cat is up to date on all of his vaccines and exams. He has a sensitive tummy and feline asthma as well as a heart condition, so I am highly familiar and flexible with cats with any kind of conditions requiring medication administration, special diets or processes.
“Natalia is great! I have used her pet sitting service multiple times and always feel secure that my cat is in safe hands. She’s so responsive and thorough as well.”
About: Prior to signing up with Rover, I have been pet sitting for neighbors and friends. I am available to visit your cat in your home or have your dog stay with us. I have a fenced in yard but I walk my golden retriever twice per day which I would include your dog in those walks and add an evening walk right before bed. I used to walk dogs at an animal shelter, too. I am a teacher, so during the school year your dog would be walked in the morning, in the afternoon and right before bed. I also have a large fenced in yard. The most your dog would be alone during the weekdays would be between 7:00 am and 2:45 but would have our golden retriever as a companion. I have two teenagers at home who also love dogs. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly spayed golden retriever female who is 7 years old. I also have two teenagers who love dogs. Your dog is welcome to sleep on the couch or bed or come with a crate. My dog does not sleep in a crate but I have had other “clients” that prefer to come with their crates.
About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have a lot of love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).
About: I LOVE DOGS AND CATS! I have had two dogs in my life; one was a Doberman mix and the other was a yellow Labrador Retriever. They were both large, active dogs, so I'm used to handling rambunctious bundles of energy of all sizes. I can even give your dog oral medication if necessary. How about cats? Of course! I've also had two cats, and my current cat is turning 18 soon. The two cats I have had couldn't be more different. My first cat was very outgoing and loved meeting new people, and my current cat is, well, a cat's cat! So I am very understanding of the wide range of cat personalities. I have to give my old cat medication all the time, so I can give your cat oral medication if necessary. I I work part-time in Braintree, weekdays from 10-3. I can do early morning walks at the crack of dawn and late afternoon/evening walks in all types of weather. And, of course, I'm completely open on weekends. I will offer your dogs and cats play, affection, and attention (unless they're shy and prefer to be left alone, of course!). I'll feed them, clean up any messes they make, etc. I can offer to meet with you first and do a trial care (walking, playing, etc) free of charge so that you can decide if you want me to be your dog walker/pet sitter.
“Laura did a great job checking in on our 4 cats while we were out of town for our wedding. Having her excellent communication, report cards and photos really put us at ease knowing our kitties were happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much Laura!!”
“Gabby performed all duties accordingly and was communicative throughout the process. Thank you for all the effort! I will recommend her and use her services again in the future!”
“Patti is incredible!! She is attentive and detail-oriented, which is important when you have an older cat who needs insulin injections and other medication. She is so caring and warm, our girl loved her immediately! We appreciated her thoughtful notes and photos at every visit, and were thrilled to come home after a long travel day and find homemade treats waiting for us! Patti truly goes above and beyond - we are so grateful to have found her.”
About: Hi! I’m Sara, and I’ve always had such a big love for animals, especially horses and dogs! Growing up, animals have always had a special place in my heart, and I truly believe they deserve all the love, patience, and care in the world. I love spending time with dogs, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them some extra cuddles and attention. Every dog has their own little personality, and getting to know them is honestly one of my favorite things! I know how much our pets mean to us, so I’ll always treat yours like my own. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! My typical day is pretty relaxed and flexible, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! I love starting the day with a nice walk, some fresh air, and of course, lots of playtime and attention. Throughout the day, I make sure there’s a good balance of exercise, potty breaks, meals, cuddles, and downtime. I also love getting to know each dog’s personality and sticking to their usual routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I do work night shifts on select days, but I’m always upfront about my availability and make sure your pet’s needs and schedule are a priority. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and little updates throughout the day because I know how reassuring it is to see your babies happy and well cared for! 🐾 I live in a safe, pet-friendly gated community with its own secure dog playground, plus the Quincy Dog Park just around the corner—perfect for plenty of playtime and socializing! 🐕✨
About: As a pet owner myself, I am dedicated to providing exceptional pet care with a focus on love, attention, and playtime. Let me be your pet’s favorite companion while you're away! I currently work full-time during the week, but I’m available on weekends for pet care services! I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits or overnight stays. I always make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away! I take great pride in ensuring my dog and cat receive the love, attention, and exercise they need to thrive. From daily walks and bathroom breaks to playtime and cuddles, I prioritize their well-being above all else. With my experience and genuine love for animals, I'm committed to providing the same level of care and attention to your pets as I do my own, ensuring they're happy, healthy, and well-cared for in your absence.
“Jessica was great and made us feel like our pet was well taken care of while we were away. She did an excellent job making sure our cat didn't want for anything during our absence and gave us peace of mind. Also sent lots of cute photos of them playing, which we appreciated.”
About: Since my PhD, I've found furry friends to be some of the best companions for different life moments, both the ups and downs. I’m naturally patient with animals and observant of their behaviors. Especially how they react to different cues so I can best connect them. I work very close from home with flexible schedule. Just let me know 3 hours ahead for a dog walk and 3 days ahead for short pet visit/ pet sitting. Before any pet walking/sitting/ short visit, I would like to visit first (with some treats) to get to know the pets. Only when I know they are comfortable with my presence can I take on the job. I would love any details about your pet so I can give them more tailored attention and care while you’re away.
“Melisa went above and beyond taking care of my cat while we were away for the holidays. She was punctual and extremely thorough and our cat warmed up to her very quickly! She kept me updated and gave me such peace of mind. Definitely book her, she’s the best!!”
“Amazing visit for our pup! We have a 1 year old super energetic dog who can be a little shy but absolutely LOVED her time there! So many picture updates, took her on tons of walks and dog park trips, she cried when she had to come home!”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Hingham is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,438 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hingham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
