“I was very nervous leaving my sweet hound, once a stray, with anyone but my own mom, but when she moved out of state, I had to find someone. I could not have found better hands to leave Loretta in! Julie cared for her perfectly, sent updates, gave her the perfect amount of alone time, and supervised time outside with other sweet dogs. I picked her up on a windy night, but I don’t think that was the only reason Loretta was reluctant to get in the car, I think she truly loved her new extended family!”
“Heather was fantastic! Very responsive, sent photos of our dog Lucy and kept us up to date. We will definitely be utilizing her services more often. Thanks a ton Heather!”
“Stacy took great care of our dog for 10 days while we were out of the country. Being far away from a much loved pet can be tough. But we had no concerns because we knew she was in good hands. When we went to pick up our pup was super happy and obviously enjoyed her time with Stacy in a very dog friendly environment.”
“Kyla was a superb sitter for our young pup. We were so anxious over having to leave him with someone as he has had a tough time already in life with being born in a street in Texas, then having to stay in a shelter in a pen for almost three months to then being brought to Tennessee to a shelter where he was adopted by us. Then he had to take a long Trek to Connecticut in a semi trailer with 150 other dogs crated the whole trip where we picked him up. He is very anxious and not use to other people or animals. I must say Kyla was super great with Franklin. She did everything we had asked even down to the insane feeding ways we have. We left a long list with Kyla as if we were leaving a human child and she fulfilled each and every one and then some. She is a very caring, kind and loving animal sitter. Her house is super clean and a great environment for any pet. Her children are just the cutest and very helpful with the animals. They love animals and are very gentle with them which was so cute to see. Kyla was super great about sending daily pictures and updates to us about Franklin. She keeps things very professional and I will certainly recommend her to anyone who wants a home away from home for there pet while they vacation or work. We will definitely use her pet boarding services again.”
“Anthony and Zanely took such good care of our dog while we were away. They kept us updated, took her on adventures, and spent quality time with her. Would definitely recommend them!”
“Gilly had a great stay over the holidays with Bridget. We appreciated all of the video and photo updates - it was pretty clear Gilly was getting a solid amount of time outside, playing fetch, and having a great stay.”
“Bethany was very nice and accommodating with the schedule. She went out of her way to make sure Cody had everything he needed. I appreciated the pictures she sent to show him cuddling with them. He seemed to enjoy the time camping too. I’m glad he was out and active and exposed to new environments.”
“This was our first time boarding Bailey with Lilly and her family. We were nervous leaving our 15 year old baby with someone new but Lilly and her family made us feel comfortable and sent us pictures morning. We would definitely book with Lilly again and highly recommend her.”
“Our beagle had yet another wonderful stay with Kira and Steve. He loves it there, and I never worry when I am on vacation because they take such good care of him. Thank you!”
About: Growing up I used to help take care of my family’s cat and would frequently watch my neighbor’s dogs and cats. My family and I were unable to have a dog growing up, so I throughly enjoy the chance to be able to watch and take care of yours. I also have experience volunteering at nursing homes and being involved with Big Brother. I currently work full time, however I have a very flexible work schedule. This gives me great flexibility to watch your dog/ cat. I am also available potentially overnights on evenings. While I do not have the capability to watch pets in my home, I do have the knowledge and experience to watch them in yours.
“Julie was a great sitter all around! She offered a meet and greet beforehand which I really appreciated. Louie was immediately comfortable with her and her home. Julie's home was a perfect fit for us because it’s one level and she has a fenced”
“So grateful to Ali and Chris for stepping in last minute after our sitter canceled. They took such great care of Athena, who had a wonderful time with her new doggie friends. They kept us updated the whole time and were truly a lifesaver—we’ll definitely be using them again!”
“Lingwen was AMAZING! She made Nico feel super comfortable at her home and welcomed. Lingwen sent updates and pictures of Nico thought out the stay which we loved. Thank you much again for caring for Nico! If you’re looking for a sitter, do not hesitate to book her. She’s the best :)”
“Danielle was wonderful with Cody. He warmed up to her quickly. She picked him up and dropped him off which was a huge convenience for us. Danielle sent pics of Cody every day so we could see how happy and relaxed he was. They took Cody for walks and her son played with Cody. Will definitely be contacting Danielle for future care.”
“Sarah and Luis were great. I felt confident leaving my Sara with the family. I received great updates and pictures. Drop off and pick up was seamless. Thank you.”
About: My very friendly little dog and I would love to host your dog here with us, up to 40 pounds only though...Or if your pal would benefit from a playmate, we would love to come sit for you! Well first off, I've been trusted with the care of many precious pets for years now...And enjoy it very much...I am fun, caring, and engaging, as well as all ble's, reliable, dependable, and responsible! And I took a CPR pet course, and human one as well. I have had cats mostly all my life, and now own a small dog of my own, who as I stated earlier, could, or doesn't have to if need be, come with me, as some love to have a playmate for their pet...And I know my friendly little guy very much enjoys the visit. But with anyone coming to my home, my guy will be there too, and they must all be friendly, and then we have nothing but a good time. Which brings me to, I can watch any animal, esp in the animals home and of any size...It is my home that, as also mentioned above, I would only be able to take in a small or medium sized dog, cat, or caged pet. And my home, that I live in with just my little guy, is pretty open and spacious for dogs to move around, and I have fenced in my backyard just off the back door porch for even more run around fun. And now onto my prices, I had to do additions a certian way on here...As to plus a cat if I'm also coming to care for your dog...But I can always modify and give a discount if say you have many plus one cats in your home so it doesn't keep plus one'ing a fee...Or if you have wonderfully easy small dogs, I would not keep plus one'ing for those and would find a nice set fee, and especially if my little guy could also come enjoy them, or they could come spend the time with us...It's the large ones that can be more of a handful and take a bit more doing often times, that I have to have it set that way for. And I did just recently up my prices some as I've noticed that Rover charges per night and I am not loving that, I always on my own charge per day, so I up'd my prices some to reflect that. But have noticed that I am still under many, esp when it comes to multiple pets, and so that is good. So you can always send me a msg and we can discuss any and all options. I can often work staying elsewhere into my routine, even if many miles away...And I put a certain radius, which is more so for popins...But I have stayed in homes miles and miles away, out of state even, just ask if it's doable, it very well may be! But for pop ins and walks, I would prefer to travel within 10 miles or so from my home only. So I did just update this for a 45 miles out, but obviously I cannot be doing a pop in or daily walk so far away. I care for pets in my home or their home the same way I care for my pet in his home...With the added, well, additions that your pet may need. My home is often more foolproof safe...Such as I have an indoor fenced area around my front door...And I do sometimes bring something similar with me to others homes...I prefer to be (overly) safe than sorry.
About: If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I LOVE dogs! I’ve been a dog person my entire life and have been caring for my own dogs, as well as friends’ and family members’ dogs, for more than 30 years. I have two kids who are just as crazy about dogs as I am, so your pup will have no shortage of attention, cuddles, playtime, and someone telling them how cute they are all day long! 😂 When a dog stays with me, they’re not treated like a guest—they’re treated like one of the family. That means lounging on the furniture, hanging out, getting lots of love and attention, and tagging along for outdoor adventures whenever appropriate. I want them to feel like they’re on a little vacation of their own! I love all dogs- regardless of size, breed, or personality. Tiny lap dog? Big goofy dog? Somewhere in between? I love them all! My home is currently pet-free after saying goodbye to my two beloved bulldogs, who both crossed the rainbow bridge over the past two years. While I miss them terribly, having dogs come stay has been such a wonderful way to bring that happy, furry energy back into the home. 🐾 So if you’re looking for a safe, loving place where your dog will get lots of attention, plenty of couch time, and probably a few extra treats, I’d love to meet you and your pup! Come stay with me—I promise your dog will be spoiled! 🐾💕 I’m currently a stay at home mom so your pup will spend very little time alone. Weather permitting, we walk a little less than a mile to and from school each morning and afternoon and would bring your dog along if they want- we also have a big wagon for those who may like to join but can quite handle the walk! We welcome your dog to make themselves at home but I’m happy to crate if that is something you prefer. We love to snuggle on the couch or get out for a walk to burn energy- whatever your dog needs!

I can’t recommend Kristen enough! I have been looking for someone to care for my dog while I go away on trips that wasn’t just friends and family doing favors but was nervous leaving him for the first time. Kristen was so kind and loving to my pup, he looked like he has a smile in every pic she shared with me. He came home happy and stress free!! It felt like he went on his own vacation too:)
I would give Dave a really good review. Hannah seemed very comfortable there with Dave and captain. She was walked regularly and had access to the fenced in yard. Dave sent updates and pictures of the two dogs walking and hanging out. Would recommend and use again.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Hopedale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hopedale home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Hopedale.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hopedale. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Hopedale sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
