“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!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was three years old and trained most of them! I often take care of my sisters one year old Pomeranian and take him to the local dog park and on long walks on the nearby trail! With my full time job as an interior designer, I’m free to spend time with your pup on the weekends and on the Mondays or Fridays that I’m working from home! Unfortunately my apartment does not allow dogs but I can care for your pup at your home! I know every pup is different so I can care for her/him according to how you would like :) I love going for walks so I do not mind taking long walks!

“Natalia provided great care to my cat Fletcher while I was away for a long weekend. She provided detailed photos of his food bowl before and after his meal, letting me know that he ate well, as well as other photos like him playing with the toys around the house and the cleaned litter box. Fletcher is a shy cat so seeing him getting some chin scratches after just a few visits was a great sign of the type of care he received. I would definitely consider Natalia for future drop in visit needs!”

“Super happy! She has a great attention to detail, and my dogs seemed really relaxed around her. Usually I am very anxious about leaving my dogs for others to watch, since sometimes they can be very particular and difficult. I had zero worries with Nathalia and if I wasn’t moving I would totally hire her again!”

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: Becoming a dog mom in January 2026 has taught me so much about caring for puppies and understanding their unique needs. Over the past several months, I've gained experience with potty training, crate training, daily walks, feeding schedules, socialization, enrichment, and all the energy and love that comes with raising a puppy. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet because I would want the same for my own dog. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog's personality and routine. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners confidence that their furry family member is in good hands. I work full-time on a hybrid schedule, with three days working from home each week. Because I have a young puppy of my own, I spend much of my free time at home and maintain a flexible routine. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. My puppy is still learning and can be a little shy around new dogs at first, but she is friendly and typically becomes more comfortable with proper introductions and time to adjust. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As a puppy owner, I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and close supervision. I carefully follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. My puppy is friendly but can be a little nervous around new dogs initially, so I take introductions slowly and always prioritize a calm, safe environment. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is being cared for like family.

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.

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!

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!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hingham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hingham is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $39 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 9,710 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.

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.

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
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

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.

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.
