“Wow! This is my first time using Rover and Anna was the first sitter to pop up. I was a little nervous but decided to give it a try. She was absolutely amazing! I never had to worry at all about how my cat was doing. I felt relaxed and relieved, knowing she was in great hands. Every time Anna did her drop in I got pictures and a progress note. Kila loves her and I came home to one happy cat! I will absolutely be hiring Anna the next time I ago away . Thank you, Anna!”

About: Owner of 3 yr old pomsky. What sets me apart is my experience caring for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and consistency, to senior dogs who require patience and gentle attention. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, while keeping their routine on track. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like family. Pet care is a natural part of my routine — I enjoy daily walks, outdoor time, and making space for play and cuddles. My schedule is flexible, so I can give pets the attention they need, whether that’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care. In my home, I create a safe and cozy environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable, with plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine closely — from feeding schedules to exercise needs — so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to keep their day as normal and happy as possible while you’re away.

About: Lifelong animal lover and wildlife rescuer, here for you and your pets About: I've cared for animals my whole life: dogs, cats, birds, lizards, and fish. I'm the person friends, family, and neighbors call when they need someone they trust with their pets, for walks, feeding, playtime, or just good company. I'm also the one who stops for hurt wildlife and brings them to the Tufts wildlife rehab clinic, so I stay calm in unexpected situations and I'm comfortable with animals of every temperament. I have a flexible daytime schedule, which means I'm available for weekday walks, drop-in visits, and day care. Your pet gets real attention plus plenty of updates and photos while you're away. I treat every animal like my own. I have a large yard where dogs get plenty of supervised outdoor time, plus a dog park just a 3-minute walk away for extra play and socializing. Dogs are never left unattended outside, and I keep a close eye on every pup in my care.

“Marcella saved my cat-I would give her 100 stars if I can I have 2 cats and one of them has seizure. She needs medication everyday so I invited Marcella for help. She said yes to this task and was able to accommodate the drug address method without any issue. And she did more than that. Another cat felt under the weather during our absence and it turns out he was in a very critical situation-urination blockage. Marcella stayed longer to observe him, called my vet, the vet she knows, Rover support, and ended up decisively brought my cat to the ER when I was not reachable. At that time she was told by Rover there's a risk that she needs to pay the medical bill (which is of course not the reality) but she still wants to save my cat's life. Vet told us he could die if we went to hospital later than we were. Luckily, with all the help, he made through it and now continuing enjoying his life. Even ER team took care of my cat, Marcella proactively commuted between my house and ER, bring addition information from the doctor and precise photos to us. she did everything I could even imaging, and much more beyond. I highly recommend her!!!”

About: I’ve been walking my family’s dogs for almost a decade now - a high energy Brittany spaniel & a very large husky/shepherd mix. 7 years ago I rescued a German shepherd/pit bull mix (Layla) who I’ve trained extensively and take on daily adventures. Then, a year ago I rescued Dixon (a German shepherd/Australian cattle dog mix) and he’s been reactive to humans & dogs alike. I’ve completed extensive training in classes with him alongside professionals. I’ve taken that experience and can apply many basic training concepts to dogs of all sizes/ages. I’m currently available throughout the work week from 2pm into the early evening. Book early to save a spot right at 2! I can also do special requests for weekends (although it says I am not available - shoot me a message and we can discuss!) I know a wide variety of trails/walking spots in the local area, so your pup will always be enriched & happy! I make sure to carry some kind of dog deterrent (PetSafe SprayShield or Pet Corrector) in case of emergency, and try to engage in positive reinforcement training throughout walks. This looks like rewarding the dog(s) with treats when they check in with me, stay in a heel, or keep loose tension on the leash. Within your home, I’ll always change/refill the water for the dog(s) after the walk.

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, always having one in my family and watching family and friends dogs. I spent my quarantine taking care of my very hyper and energetic puppy. I also care for family and friends dogs when they go out of town or need me too. I’m currently enrolled at UMass Amherst, where I am currently a Senior. I typically use time between or after classes for pet care and take advantage of the weekends. As an active individual, I would be able to take your dog out whenever they need to, as well as having a large backyard for them to play.

About: I've had dogs since I was in 3rd grade, so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and giving pets lots of love and attention. I've also helped care for family and friends' pets while they were away. I'm reliable, patient, and will treat every pet like they're my own. I know how important it is to stick to a pet's routine and make them feel safe and comfortable, and I'm happy to send updates and photos while you're away. I'm currently working part-time through August 1, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I'll be starting a full-time job on August 17, but I'll still be available on weekends and can discuss weekday availability as needed. I'll always make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and time they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would my own. I will follow your pet's routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind.

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and sizes—from a gentle giant Mastiff to smaller dogs with daily medication needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk/ hike, playtime, cuddles, meds, or just a loving companion, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll provide dependable care and keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’ll give your pet the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work part time caring for plants and helping with the on-site pets at my job. It’s a small company with a lot of flexibility so most of the time it’s easy to customize my schedule. If you need care in my home, I have a good set up with spaces that can be closed off if you have a shy pet who prefers quiet. As far as outside playtime for dogs, I have a good sized yard and live in a great neighborhood with sidewalks. I’m also able to go on hikes with your dog if that’s their thing. I’m comfortable coming to your home and keeping your pet’s routine as usual if that’s your preference.

About: I've been walking my dogs my whole life; I've had an Akita, two Shiba Inus, and one husky mutt (all raised from puppies). I have dealt with all of the care required. I've taken care of many of my family and friend's pets as well as worked at a dog day care "3 muttskateers" for half a year. Im currently interning at a nearby studio and would love to spend some of my free time walking or checking in on dogs. I live near Leicester and am willing to make drives to spend time with your furry friend. I am very patient with dogs, allowing them to take the time they need to do what they need to do. I am aware that most dogs have boundaries, and just because they are showing them does not make them badly behaved at all. If instructed, I also have a lot of experience being stern.

Brianna is awesome! She watched my cat for 4 days while I was out of town. She did all the usual cat care things as well as giving the cat her meds each morning. She also brought in our trash bins the first evening we were gone, which was so helpful! And the cat was comfortable with her pretty immediately, which is always a great sign. I would feel very comfortable leaving Wendy in her care again.

We are so happy we booked with Kerry! It was wonderful getting to meet her during our meet and greet, and we felt comfortable leaving our Labrador Retriever, Enzo, in her care. My husband and I were away for two days, and Kerry provided drop-in visits that included walks, feeding, playtime in the backyard, fresh water, and lots of great company for Enzo while we were away. She was so attentive and responsive throughout our time away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Enzo was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciated how thoughtful and reliable Kerry was. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like their own! 🐾❤️

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hopedale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hopedale is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $31 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 9,625 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hopedale. 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 Hopedale. 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.
