About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, ever since I can remember – I love lending a hand to my neighbors too, whether it's popping over to feed their pets, letting them out for a run, taking them on walks, or even staying overnight to keep them company. What I really adore is discovering the unique personalities and wonderful qualities that make each and every animal so special. While I work full-time, my schedule offers significant flexibility as I work remotely two days a week. This allows me to accommodate early morning walks, or I can be available for walks and check-ins throughout my workday for potty breaks or feeding, especially during unexpected cancellations. Additionally, I have ample availability on weekends and am comfortable with evening walks. I'm also happy to offer overnight stays and house-sitting, and can even leave directly from your home for my workday. When I'm looking after an animal at someone's house, I really focus on making sure they're safe, building trust, and keeping their environment as normal as possible. For safety, I stick to their usual routines, learn all about their specific needs and any health stuff, and always double-check the house to make sure everything is safe and they haven't had any accidents or have gotten into anything. Building trust with you means I'll keep you updated, respect your home and privacy, and always show how much I care about your pet as well double checking with you if I have any questions (never assuming). And keeping their environment consistent and positive really helps the animal feel secure and less stressed, so their home stays their cozy, familiar spot even when you're away.
“We are grateful for Angela caring for our dog while we were away. Our sweet dog has been experiencing difficulties with her hind legs and we were worried about leaving her, but Angela made us feel comfortable with her care. The peace of mind was allowed us to enjoy our time away. Thank you, Angela!!”
“Cari did a great job taking care of my kitty. She is lovely and she was prompt and thorough. I felt that all was well while I was away. I highly recommend Cari and will have her over again on my next time away!”
“Shannon did a wonderful job caring for our dog Sasha and our bird. They were very happy and excited to see her for the drop ins. Highly recommend her and we will definitely book here again.”
“Alaina was absolutely amazing at stopping by to take care of my bunny rabbit, Malibu! She was super communicative, and it was such a relief knowing Malibu was in great hands. We will definitely be reaching out to Alaina again!”
About: Hi! I have been caring for others pets since I was about 8 years old and would walk my neighbors dog! I have been a dog groomer for about 10.5 years, I am pet CPR/safety certified. I also have experience giving both cats and dogs medication as my own both take daily medication. I can’t remember my life without pets! I work part time so I am available mornings and late afternoon/nights to care for your pets! Great for escaping the summer heat on our walks! My babies are my family and I will treat your pets with the same respect! One of the most rewarding experiences is helping a nervous animal come out of their shell. Would love to walk your pups and care for them in your home
About: Hello! Thank you for clicking on my page today. My name is Valerie and I would love to look after your furry family member. For the last 16 years I've had a dog in my family. Taking care of her showed me how much I love animals and I'd love to extend this love to lots of different animals. I consider myself to be professional, outgoing, and flexible. I pride myself on providing quality service for my clients and their furry friends and I feel devoted to connecting with people just as much as their pets. Dog safety is my number one focus at all times. Keeping your dog happy, healthy, and safe is considered a bare minimum requirement for me. I also feel it's important to acknowledge that every dog, just like every person, is different and that treating each new dog with it's own individual form of respect and care is very important. No two dogs are the same and I look forward to rising to the occasion to care for your dog's individual needs. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! I'm currently working on Rover being my full-time gig so I have more than enough time for you and your furry family member. Please reach out and I will make any accommodations necessary. Like every person, animals share unique personalities, experiences, and histories. I start by listening and taking in all the information from you the owner. Once I understand, to a T, what you require I then turn my attention to our furry friend. I do my best to be intuitive and listen to their body language and mannerisms to give them the right care they need. Is your dog giving me a whale eye or a play sneeze? Does you cat have scared airplane ears or a nice perky and curious tail? All of these pieces of body language ensure that your furry friend and I can get along swimmingly.
About: Finding someone you trust with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care every time. I’ve spent over 10 years working with animals in a variety of professional settings, including as a dog groomer, and at an animal hospital. Those experiences have taught me how to safely handle dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, while also recognizing when something doesn’t seem quite right. Whether your dog loves long walks, prefers to stop and sniff every tree, or just needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and treated like one of my own. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours happiest. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and believe communication is just as important as great pet care. You can expect plenty of updates and photos from me! I know our pets are family, and my goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend! I’m currently a full-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. Since my classes are planned in advance, I can easily work around them to provide reliable walks and visits. I enjoy being active, so spending time with dogs fits naturally into my routine. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, an evening outing, or care while you’re at work, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that meets your needs. Your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. With over 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ll use safe leash-handling practices, stay aware of our surroundings, and always treat your dog with patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated after each walk, so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and have been around dogs my entire life. I’m experienced with all kinds of personalities, from shy and nervous to playful and energetic. I have a sweet, friendly one year old Poochon who loves making new friends. Dogs in my care become part of our family. My husband is home during the day, my adult daughter works from home, and my teenage daughter loves dogs and enjoys helping too. This means your pup will have plenty of attention and will never be left home alone. I occasionally have one or two other friendly boarding dogs staying with us, so it’s important that your dog is comfortable around other dogs. They spend their days playing, relaxing, and getting lots of love and attention together. I believe in clear communication and will always follow your instructions, prioritize your dog’s safety, and send regular updates with photos. Thank you for considering me! I’d love the opportunity to make your pup feel safe, loved, and right at home. 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.
“Zachary was great! We were away for the day and he came by a few times throughout the day to walk our two labs. We would definitely recommend him and look forward to having him watch our pups again some time soon!”
“Eva was amazing!! She saved me last minute and was available to help walk my King Charles Spaniel in a pinch when I had a last minute work trip. She went above and beyond and took him to the park, on long walks, he had a ball! Highly recommend!”
About: I started taking care of dogs since I was 20 years old. I started taking care of my friends and family dogs, I gain experience with them at first, then I kept growing up learning with each doggie, you have to be emotionally prepare for them, I'm sure I developed was is required for their cares. I work from home, so I want to start specifically walks an Drop-off sevices in my spare time, but I'll have a flexible schedule and convenient for each customer need. I have a a fenced backyard in case I had to board or take care of a doggie during the day. So your dog can feel comfortable and have play time during the day.
“I can’t recommend Avery enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she truly loves and understands dogs. She took incredible care of Daisy & Xena, keeping me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Avery went above and beyond—this is someone you can absolutely trust with your furry family member. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Isabella was fantastic! She helped us with a last minute request and was a great per sitter to our two cats and bunny. She was responsive, friendly and sent us regular pics and updates. Our critters were well looked after while we were away. Would definitely hire again ?”
“Johnna is very professional and reliable. She came to do two drop-in visits for our 2 dogs and everything went really smoothly. She was on-time, very responsible with handling our dogs, and sent us a full description and photos after she left, which helped put our minds at ease. We'd definitely recommend her for dogsitting!”
“Jackie is such a great find! I would not trust my sweet cats with anyone else. She is flexible and easygoing, along with providing A+ care to our cats. She has such a trusting disposition and always sent pics with each visit. I would recommend her to anyone and will be using her services many times in the future! Jackie is a gem.”
About: I have experience taking care of many different dogs and pets, including birds, fish, and guinea pigs. I had my own dog for thirteen years and then helped my dad with his puppy. For one family I nannied for I would take care of the blind and partially deaf dog that they owned. I would take him for walks, out side play time, quick drop-ins, and take him for car rides to do hiking trails. I would also bathe, feed, and give medication if needed. I would also stay with the dog while the family would go away for vacations. I have taken mine and friend’s dogs to the local dog parks. I do work Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, so I can let dogs out before and after work. I do work full time Monday to Friday 8-6 so I can care for animals before and after work on the week days and I am fully available on weekends. When animal sitting at clients homes I will spend as much time outside with the pets for fresh air and exercise. I give them their meals on schedule along with any medications they may need.

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.
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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
