About: I have watched dogs all sizes, breeds, and personalities since I was 16 for neighbors, friends, and family. I have fed pets, taken pets for walks, and hung with them. I do work full time but I’m around weekends, week nights, Thursdays, and Tuesday mornings. I have two dogs myself so I know how to manage time. I can crate your dog, make sure they are in a comfortable environment, make a close relationship with our dog and have no danger around them.
About: My name is Victoria and I have a wide range of experience caring for animals. Being a pet owner myself, I know what others are looking for while leaving their loved ones in the hands of others. Throughout my time looking after pets my duties have been; walking, feeding, boarding, giving pets with Diabetes their injection of insulin, giving animals their daily medications (both liquid and pills) and just about anything else you can think of! I have taken care of 6 month old puppies to 17 year old dogs of all different breeds and disabilities. I don't view animals as pets but as members of a family. When your pet is with me, they will be treated like royalty! My current job is both remote and flexible, giving me the ability to be attentive and care for your your pets consistently throughout each day! My home is pet very pet friendly and safe. Animals are allowed on the couch and beds! Along with walks, there is a dog play area where I live to keep your pet(s) entertained and happy! Please note I do have a very friendly dog at my home (he loves all animals!) so if your pet is boarded my dog will be present. I would also like to add a note that if you are requesting house sitting services, I usually take my dog with me for the nights unless requested otherwise. If that is the case, please let me know and I will see if I can make accommodations for my pet so I am able. Thank you!
“Caroline was wonderful, reliable and local. Molly my little yorkie received great care. Caroline sent multiple pictures of Molly while I was away which was so comforting. I would definitely recommend and share. Thanks again.”

About: I’m a devoted dog lover and stay-at-home pet caregiver with a friendly, nearly 5-year-old beagle who adores canine company. I have lots of time to cater to your dog’s needs—whether that’s plenty of cuddles, neighborhood walks, or longer hikes—and our beagle has a calm, social temperament and has never met a dog he didn’t get along with. He even helps new dogs settle in at daycare thanks to his gentle nature.

Safe, attentive care and lots of affection are guaranteed—happy to discuss routines, feeding, and any special needs your dog has. I’m currently not employed so my days are flexible.

About: Hi there! My name is Katherine, and I’m a Director of Integrations in the medical tech world, working fully remote. I’ve always lived with dogs, and while I don’t currently have one of my own, I’m happily known as the go-to puppy sitter among friends and family. I’ve been caring for pets through Rover for three years now, and I truly love it. I’ve made such wonderful connections within the community, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to build trust with both pets and their humans. I’m currently only taking one pet at a time (unless they’re from the same household) to ensure your fur baby gets my full attention. I live in my own home, which is spacious and cozy, with a large deck and a non-fenced backyard for supervised play. Your pet will never be left unattended or off-leash—safety is always my top priority. My neighborhood is very family-friendly and features a beautiful mile-long loop around a pond that’s perfect for daily walks. As a remote worker, I love having furry company throughout the day and can provide plenty of care, attention, and affection. I tend to book up quickly during the summer months, so if you’re looking to secure one of those warm-weather time slots, I highly recommend booking in the winter. I’d love the opportunity to board, walk, and care for your pet! I am home 24/7 during the weekdays for boarding and available on weekends upon request. I have a flexible schedule that would allow me to take the dog outside to my yard during the day every hour. I am able to accommodate any specific requests/diets or routines. I am a fun loving dog auntie and previous certified nursing assistant/ home health aide. I have cared for many pets and also humans of all ages.
“Erika was great. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and genuinely caring. She provided regular updates with pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a tidy space. I highly recommend Erika to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Elena is amazing! She's very caring, kind and patient! She did a great job taking care our fur baby, Sydney. Elena sent so many wonderful pictures and updated us frequently. We trust her 100% and highly recommend Elena. We will rebook with her again! Thank you, Elena!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hingham
Alaina did a great job with our new puppy Sam! It was our first time leaving him without my husband or I, and we knew right away he was in good hands! Alaina was kind, friendly, prompt, and communicative during both of her drop-in visits. She accommodated a last minute request to come by and meet us before watching Sam, which we are so appreciative of. I’m so glad I found Alaina and will definitely be reaching out to book her again soon!

Jacquelyn was professional, timely, communicative and kind. She provided great care for our dogs during her drop-in visit. They were very content when we got home! She went above and beyond and cleaned up a mess when our Dane got into a bag of flour! I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!!

Valerie was very reliable and provided great care for our Great Dane and Shiba Inu while we were out of state for 5 days. Not only that, but she made herself available for us in a last-minute situation which we were very grateful for. She communicated well with us whenever there were issues or concerns. Our dogs were very content when we arrived at home which proves how well they were taken care of😊 We will definitely be reaching out to Valerie again for help with our dogs!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hingham is $36 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $49 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 9,364 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Hingham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 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.
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.

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.
