“Natalia was amazing! She was always on time, made sure my cat had plenty of food and water, and gave him play time and pets! I hired her numerous times for my cat and could 100% trust and rely on her!”
About: I've taken care of so many animals throughout my life. Whether it's a neighbors dog or a family friends hamster, I have always been the first to raise my hand to say I would love to. I'm in nursing school so I have a compassion for anything that has heartbeat and even stuffed animals. I will make sure any animal I take care of or walk or encounter has the best experience. I'm at nursing student, Merrimack College, and being able to take care of any pet would allow me to debrief and see a cute pet. My dog gets walk very frequently because we live in an apartment. I love hiking so he also goes with me. Being outside whether the weather it is.
About: I've been a natural with dogs my entire life, and my Vizsla is living proof of what patient, positive training can accomplish. I've personally trained her to perform unique tricks like jumping from walls, leaping onto my back on command, and responding to advanced cues that showcase trust and two-way communication. Training Expertise: - Crate Training: Creating a safe, comfortable den space for anxious or young dogs - Obedience Basics: Sit, stay, come, heel, and other essential commands - Socialization: Helping dogs become confident around new people, animals, and environments - Trick Training: Teaching fun, impressive tricks that build confidence and mental stimulation - Behavior Training: pulling, recall, impulse control using positive reinforcement What I Offer: I understand that every dog has a unique personality and learning style. Whether your pup needs structured training, active play, or just a calm, secure environment, I tailor my approach to their individual needs. My fenced yard provides a safe space for off-leash play and training sessions. Energy & Activity Levels: I'm active and love spending time outdoors with dogs. I keep dogs engaged both physically and mentally. I'm equally comfortable with high-energy breeds that need outlets and senior dogs who prefer gentler activities. Your dog won't just be watched, they'll be understood, engaged, and cared for like family. Cheers! Pet care isn't just something I do, it's part of my lifestyle! I'm already out with my Vizsla for a least 1.5 hours every day, exploring amazing spots like Wompatuck State Park, Blue Hills, and Bare Cove Park. Your dog will come along (on leash) and be part of our daily adventure crew! I keep things consistent with regular feeding times, potty breaks, and plenty of rest—dogs thrive on routine! If your pup is crate-trained, they're welcome to use their crate as their cozy safe space whenever they need it. Fresh water is always available, and I make sure every dog gets mental stimulation through play, training, and lots of love throughout the day. I supervise all outdoor time, my yard is fully fenced for worry-free play, and I use secure restraints for car rides. You'll get daily photo updates so you can see your furry friend having a blast!
About: Hi, I’m a lifelong dog lover and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I’m experienced with all kinds of personalities, from shy and nervous to high energy and playful. I have a one year old Poochon who is sweet, friendly, and very well behaved. I believe in full transparency and clear communication, and I take pride in doing great work. I will always follow your instructions, prioritize safety, and send clear updates with photos. If you are open to it, I would love to bring my friendly Poochon along for social pups. If not, no problem at all. I’m happy to come solo and follow your preference. Thank you for considering me. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pooch and help keep them happy, safe, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m very flexible and available every day of the week. I love the outdoors and staying active, so walks and drop ins are an easy, consistent part of my day. I can accommodate last minute requests, follow your pet’s routine closely, and I always provide reliable care with clear updates each visit. Clean, calm, pet friendly home with a large backyard and plenty of room to play. My friendly 1 year old Poochon is home, so I only accept dogs who are comfortable around other dogs. I closely follow your routine (feeding, potty schedule, and house rules) and send photo updates. I have video cameras in the home for safety, and someone is home 24/7 for supervision and care.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for family, friends and community families for years now. I have done overnight watching, pop ins for feeding and walks as well as homed dogs at my house. I have a fenced in yard available for dogs to run around in. In the surrounding yards there are other neighbors. I am very aware of surroundings when watching dogs in order to keep the dogs in a safe environment as well as others around them. I currently work as a teacher so I am home around 3 and do not work weekends. I am very active so love to go on walks! I have a fenced in yard that has dogs in the surrounding yards for your dog to run back and forth with in an enclosed area. I also have a very dog friendly neighborhood great for walking.
About: I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs and flat faced dogs, frenchies, pugs, bulldogs, etc. I own two French bulldogs myself and administer all types of medication. I am semi-retired from a Corporate career and have recently decided to start my own dog walking business. I am currently trying to build up my clientele to hopefully create a doggie daycare in the near future. I will have a fenced in yard by the end of summer 2025, currently in progress. I have a few separate areas where pups can relax and veg out as well as play inside.
“I have booked with Sara twice now- for check-in and walking my Great Dane. She has been wonderful and took excellent care of Roady. She’s very responsive and sends updates, which really put me at ease. I had not used pet services for my dog before this and would 100% recommended Sara!”
“Thanks so much for taking Luna for a couple of walks today on such short notice. It was peace of mind knowing you showed up for her. She loves you guys!”
About: Hello! I am an animal lover with extensive experience caring for my own dog for 13 years, for children of young ages, and of elderly adults with cerebral palsy. I am extremely responsible, timely, and organized - traits that are required for success in the field I primarily work in (Medical Education/Biomedical Research). Additionally, I am very compassionate and loving towards animals, and I deeply respect and understand the bond pet owners have with their animals. I would be so thrilled to spend time with and get to know your pet! I currently work remotely, so I am consistently available for pet care! I tend to go to the gym in the mornings and go to cafes during the day to work, but I also do work from home often and could spend the entire day with an animal if needed! I also love to be/walk outside so dog walking and potty breaks are much needed moments of relaxation from the workday! I understand the value of keep routines consistent and creating a safe space for your animal. I am very vigilant and ensure I never let an animal out of my sight while outside. I would make sure to follow all the rules outlined by owners to keep their pet safe and comfortable while in my care!

“We love having Brooke to take care of our 21lb labradoodle Nemo. She is super reliable and trustworthy. I have peace of mind knowing Brooke is nearby if we are out of the house longer than expected.”
About: I’m a proud dog mom to a 9 month old Golden Retriever. Through raising and training him, I’ve gained experience with puppy routines, leash walking, feeding schedules, crate training, potty training, and handling high energy dogs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and I’ll always make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I have a young Golden Retriever of my own. My schedule allows me flexibility for walks, drop in visits, and quality time with your fur babies throughout the week. I’m reliable, communicative, and always make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, especially someone new. I’m very attentive, patient, caring, and I always want all pets to feel comfortable and loved while in my care. Raising my Golden Retriever has taught me the importance of consistency, attention, and creating a calm and positive environment for dogs. I’ll treat your fur babies as my own.
“Charlee did a great job looking after my kitties! Everything was in great shape when I got home, and she even managed to get me a couple photos of the skittish little monsters while I was away. She was a joy to communicate with and was super reliable. Thank you!!”
“Leonardo took wonderful care of my two senior cats, including one that requires medication twice a day, while I was gone for the weekend. They were clearly well tended to when I came home. He was very communicative and lovely to work with. I would definitely choose Leonardo again and recommend others to do the same!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hingham stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Hingham 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Hingham with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
