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.
“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!”
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.
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!
“Madeline was great! She came for a meet and greet before the visit, and then came on time for both bookings during the day we were gone, gave updates, and sent pictures. We will definitely be requesting Madeline to come back. Thank you!!”

I have a fenced yard and my dogs would love having a new friend around! They are both social and love meeting new dogs to hangout with :)
“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: Howdy, I’ve been taking care of dogs and all sorts of pet and animals growing up on top of doing dog walking professionally for 2 years with little dog training implemented here and there :) I’m pretty flexible as of currently but anytime prior to 3 pm I would handle dogs and depending on the day of the week I absolutely done for later If it’s a clients home leave it the way I arrvied as well as constant communication with updates with either pics or word messages, the same goes if I was watching the client pets
About: I’ve cared for animals since a young age, mainly dogs and cats. I have a rescue dog of my own who I trained myself, as well as a senior cat with medical needs who is thriving. My neighbors trust me to care for their dogs with medical needs while they are away, and most recently, I started walking dogs during the day time and offering house visits while pet owners are away at work or vacationing. I love spending time outdoors and getting to know your pet and offering them the critical exercise and companionship they need to live a long healthy life! When my cat was young, we had the most wonderful cat sitter who was very in tune with animals and I said I wanted to start my own business one day like her. Well, here I am! I look forward to hearing from you to discuss your pet care needs. I enjoy walking dogs or making house visits during the week days when my children are at school (mornings, mid day, and early afternoon). I’m also available for evening and overnight visits in your home on a case by case basis. I’m looking to find clients who I can grow with and essentially become a part of the family. For now I’m offering care in your home or visits with your dog like walks, hikes, or play groups at an outdoor dog park. For overnight visits, I recommend visits 3 times in the day: once in the morning time for breakfast and a walk, once again in the afternoon, and then a night time visit as well before bedtime.
About: I can handle dogs of all different breeds and love to treat them with the love and respect they deserve! I love what I do! I am currently working a full time job during the week Monday through Friday, so weekends work best for me to be able to take care of dogs. I can easily crate a dog if needed and will use what is needed at my clients house to be able to keep the dog safe and sound.
“If you are looking for the best of the best for your pet—Isabelle is IT! My partner and I have jobs that occasionally require last minute scheduling changes and we are incredibly grateful for Isabelle’s flexibility and communication. She is so kind and her experience shines through with our sweet Penny who has had many health challenges. We feel so so lucky to have met Isabelle & know Penny is in the absolute best hands when we cannot be there with her!!!”

I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I met my first dog since I was 6 years old and the love for dogs all grew inside me. I love taking care of dogs and gladly do my best for each dog’s needs, as I know that every dog is special and they have different personalities . I would love to take care of your dog to be healthy and happy. I’m available every day, I will make sure that your experience with me makes you as happy as possible. I’m currently working from home full time, I’ll make sure your dog get the cares they deserved and all the requirements will be met.

About: Treat Others the Way You Would Like To Be Treated, and that includes animals. I have always been an animal lover since I was a child. Spending my time helping out in animal shelters every opportunity I had, watching over and caring for the dogs, cats, rodents and reptiles of my friends, my friends families, my family and my own animals. I’ve walked, house sat and fostered many animals. I am a firm believer that animals are incredibly intelligent and if you give respect, you receive respect. I work in Dog Hiking. I work with a variety of breeds and personalities. I am also volunteering under a recovery dog training organization where I’m learning a variety of dog training skills. My availability has recently opened up. I am in a position to go forward with the next steps in my life and begin building connections in a new area. I work certain hours a week and now will be scheduling my outside commitments based on whatever dog walking and sitting routine I create. Every pet is different and has different needs. I personally create a schedule for each animal starting with their name, timing how to meet their own personal needs, whether it’s exercise, socializing, eating habits, medications etc. I show up on time and I am there for them, that is how I do my job because I care.
About: I’m a student at Norfolk Aggie Agricultural School where I work directly with animals as part of my coursework. I have experience caring for dogs through both school programs and my family’s pets. I’ve learned how to safely handle, feed, walk, and monitor animal behavior. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and temperaments and enjoy building trust with them through calm, consistent care. I am a student at Norfolk Aggie Agriculture High School, where I focus on animal-related studies. My daily routine is structured around school hours during the weekdays. I am usually available after school in the afternoons and early evenings for pet care. On weekends, I have more flexible availability and can help with longer visits, walks, and check-ins depending on the needs of the pet and owner care for dogs both in my family and at school , where I have hands-on experience working with them regularly. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special needs. I prioritize safety by using leashes during walks, ensuring secure environments, providing fresh water, and monitoring behavior closely. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and attention to their comfort and well-being

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 .
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 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. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
