“I want to be clear that I NEVER do reviews but after my experience with Jaime, I felt the need to. I was nervous at first as it was my 1st time using Rover & leaving my baby boy with someone unfamiliar to both of us. But Jaime changed all of that! Her kindness & reassurance definitely put my worries to ease. Even better that my pup loved her at 1st meet! She made sure to keep me posted everyday and send pics/videos! I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again! Thank you for taking such great care of my baby boy while I was away! 🙏🏼🫶🏼”
“Amazing! Kristen and Tim are incredible. I knew Gordon was in good hands for the weekend he was with them. I was sent pictures and updates on how he was the whole time which set my heart at ease. Would absolutely use again. Thank you!”
“Alena was so wonderful to our Bodhi girl while we were away at a wedding! Bodhi was welcomed with open arms and I could tell she would be in good hands from the moment I met Alena. It’s so apparent how much Alena cares for dogs, and she treated Bodhi like one of her own, sending regular updates and pics of our girl! Alena’s puppy Princess was a doll to Bodhi, and it’s clear she’s great company for any dog lucky enough to stay with her and Alena! I highly recommend Alena’s and Princess’s dynamic duo care and would definitely book with her again for Bodes!”
“Alec and Damien were perfect hosts for Fran! It was our first time boarding her and everything went super smoothly. Fran was happy and cared for. Would definitely bring Fran to their place again.”
“My two dogs seemed to really like their stay (especially the fenced yard!) and I appreciated that Kevin was flexible and a good communicator. We’d book him again if he’ll have us!”
“Daniella is the best!!!!! She’s so flexible and easygoing, has excellent communication, and she was so sweet and awesome with our elderly dog, Olive. Absolutely will be booking her again!!!”
“Brooklynn and Adam are amazing!! My dog is anxious and leash reactive, but he had no problems staying with Brooklynn. She made sure to walk him in quiet areas during less busy times, and her home is quiet and peaceful, which I'm sure helped Monty a ton. She had no problem giving him two different medications every morning, and he got so much love all weekend. We got so many pictures of Monty snuggling with Brooklynn and Adam - so cute! It was like he went to the spa for the weekend - we would love for her to watch Monty again!”
“Dusty had a great time with Julie, and she was terrific. Warm and caring, really great communication throughout Dusty’s stay, which is always much appreciated. Flexible and understanding on a traffic delay I had coming to get her. Would definitely have Dusty stay again and highly recommend to anyone else looking for quality care for your pup!”
“Jess was amazing!! She sent daily updates and pictures and I could tell from the pictures that Mabel was so happy and being treated so well. Would recommend for anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter who goes above and beyond!”
About: I’m the proud dog mom to a sweet & sassy 5-year-old Pekingese mix. I have a little more than 15 years of experience caring for cats & dogs of all ages — including seniors. I’m in school for a doctorate degree in addition to working at a special needs school. During the week, afternoons and evenings are best for me to provide care. Weekends have wider availability. I live in an apartment. I have a fenced in front and back yard. I have a very sweet 5 year old Peke mix who will keep your baby good company. Pets are allowed on furniture & in bed, should they be used to that. I’m also able to crate.
About: I've loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I've raised three dogs of my own, and they've always been part of the family. In college, I was the go-to sitter for my sorority sisters' rambunctious puppies, so I'm comfortable with high-energy pups who need patience, structure, and plenty of play. I've cared for everything from a tiny Pomeranian to a big, strong Alaskan Malamute, and for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. Whatever your dog's size or personality, I'll adapt to their routine and make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule. I'm only in the office for part of the day and often work from home, so your pup won't be left alone for long stretches. I travel for work at times, so I only accept bookings when I know I'll be home and fully available. I already take nightly walks and love any excuse to get outside, so walks are built into my routine. With several parks just steps from my apartment, your dog will get plenty of fresh air, exercise, and sniff time! Your pup's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I host just one dog at a time in my smoke-free, pet-free home, so your dog gets my full attention with no other animals to compete with. Before every stay, I'll gather everything I need to know: feeding schedule, medications, vet info, emergency contacts, and any quirks or habits. That way I can keep your dog's routine as close to home as possible. My apartment is dog-proofed, with food, cords, and anything harmful kept out of reach. Dogs are always leashed on walks, and I'll keep a close eye on them at the park. You can expect regular photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. I treat every dog like my own, and my goal is for yours to come home happy, tired, and well-loved!
“We had the pleasure of having Alaina as a sitter for our Shih Tzu Rocco for one night and we couldn’t be happier. From the moment Rocco arrived he felt right at home. Alaina is a genuine dog lover and it shows. Alaina provides updates and responds in a timely manner. I will definitely feel comfortable leaving Rocco with Alaina and her wonderful family for an extended time and I highly recommend her!”
“We had a great experience with Bridget! Our dog settled in quickly and had a great stay. Bridget sent many updates showing us pictures of our pup enjoying the outdoors and snoozing inside. We look forward to having our dog stay with Bridget in the future!”
“Fatima and Eric where incredibly helpful, supportive and constantly sent us pictures and updates throughout the dog sitting days. They also worked around our schedule to make the dropoff and pickup incredibly easy. I would without a doubt book with them again in the future!! There clear history of owning dogs in the past definitely made trusting them with our dog kona much easier as well!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hingham
Cody had a wonderful time staying with Angela and Paul! It was easy scheduling a meet and greet, and they were very flexible with pick up/drop off times. They were attentive to Cody’s dietary restrictions, and their daughter immediately made Cody feel right at home. They made us feel so comfortable throughout his stay, sending lots of photos and updates. We would definitely bring Cody back to stay with them again!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Hingham can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Hingham home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Hingham.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hingham. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Hingham 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
