“Eryn always takes wonderful care of my girls and loves them like her own! I've had her house sit twice now and she is respectful of my house as well, communicates with me appropriately, and makes me feel much better when I have to leave the animals for trips! Will definitely continue to have her keep an eye on my girls in the future”
“One of the best and thorough dog-sitters to date. You would be foolish not to hire her. I got regular updates and communications about my pup, down the consistency of his poop. The best! Hire her! She is the “Dog Nanny” “period”!!!!!!”
“Katie is THAT pet sitter. We really cannot say enough of how confident we are leaving Katie to care for our Rudi, Pearl and home. She is attentive, kind and truly empathetic to fur friends and to the people who love them. We highly regard her care and hope to always have her as our pet person in any future vacations. We cannot imagine a more caring, competent person to care for pets and a home!”
“Georgia was great during her 32-day house and pet-sitting stay. I can't recommend her enough. We felt completely at ease leaving our home and dogs in her care. She's trustworthy, communicates well, and clearly knows what she's doing with pets. Our dogs are usually off their game after we've been away for a few days, but they seemed totally normal when we got back. The house was well taken care of and exactly as we left it. We'll definitely book Georgia again and suggest you do the same if you get the chance.”
About: I graduated in 2018 from Umass Amherst with my Bachelors of science Pre-veterinary medicine. I have worked as a technician as well as a veterinary receptionist in animal hospitals. I am confident handling most animals, livestock, birds, dogs, cats and I have amateur skills with reptiles and horses. I took a small animal CPR course and can administer medications. I have personally owned 3 dogs, a bird, and many fish throughout my life. I am looking for extra work and have a very flexible schedule. I will typically be available most days and weekends, so don't hesitate to ask! I have a pre-veterinary bachelors degree and plenty of experience handling small pets I have a semi fenced large yard in the suburb area. I have two runs set up in the backyard, both allowing plenty of freedom. I have one dog, Digby. He is a mixed King Charles Cavalier spaniel and poodle. Digby is 6 years old and about 30lbs. He is sort of timid around other dogs but once he knows everything is safe, he loves to play! I live with my mother and my father.
“Molly was wonderful with our high needs elderly dog. Molly was communicative, responsive, and sent many updates and photos throughout the day. We hope to have Molly watch our dog again and highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Charlie had another great stay with Jessica. She was attentive to him, letting us know his chronic cough was increasing. She managed it well, professionally and patiently, with permission from us to give an extra dose of one of his medications. She communicated with us throughout the stay-”
“Jonathan did an exceptional job dog-sitting and house-sitting for us for a full week. He was incredibly conscientious and highly communicative, sending regular updates and adorable pictures. Our dog absolutely adored him, and Jonathan took such great care of our home that we barely noticed he was there—yet we returned to a spotless house. We highly recommend him without hesitation.”
“We came home to a very clean and organized home and, most importantly, two very happy dogs! Paisley did such a wonderful job taking care of Lander and Rosa. She kept us updated throughout our time away and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated and helped give us peace of mind while we were traveling. She was very attentive and clearly cared about our dogs and making sure they were happy and comfortable. We would absolutely recommend Paisley and would definitely have her watch Lander and Rosa again!”
“Shea was the perfect dog (and house) sitter. We came home to a relaxed senior dog and the house just as we had left it. Shea is professional and responsive. We will definitely be booking with Shea again!”
“James was so wonderful, I was so nervous having to leave my dogs usually my son will stay home while I travel but this time we were able to travel together which we haven’t been able to, due to my fear of dog kennels and strangers . My dogs loved James so much. The meet and greet went so well. He was attentive, paid attention to the feeding instructions, medications, snacks and daily walks. My flight was delayed coming home and James offered to help put longer until I got home. We received lots of photos and videos also. I can say I now feel great and can travel more Thanks to James!!! I will be using him most definitely and recommend others to reach out to him as well.”
“We’ve used Annie before and I’m so happy to know that my dogs have someone loving to care for them when we’re gone! You can tell she really loves dogs and gives each of my boys the attention and love they need. Will continue to use her for all family travel!!”
“Brianna is a star! After moving Zora from the only home she had ever known less than a year ago, I was very unhappy about leaving her for a whole month, but I needed have worried. Zora and Brianna quickly formed an enduring bond and did SO well together. It was infinitely reassuring to receive regular texts, photos and videos of their days together. Brianna also took amazing care of my home and my plants. When I got home, everything was immaculate. Zora had obviously been content, well cared for and exercised during my absence. Definite five stars!! Thanks, Brianna!”
“We’ve used Reichel twice now. The experience has been great! She is reliable, our dogs love her, and we get updates while we are gone! Can’t ask for much more than that when you are away”
“Julie was amazingly flexible, as our schedule was unknown, and was there when we needed her. More importantly, she was good with Ricky, took him out for walks as well as for his sanitary needs, and kept us regularly informed, with pictures. If we are in the area again we will seek her to assist us, and Ricky, again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Indian Orchard is $60
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Indian Orchard
James and Reichel were awesome! We’re new to the house / overnight sitting so we were apprehensive about our pet with strangers but James and Reichel were so accommodating, professional and incredibly responsive. The initial meet and greet with our pet was so helpful and definitely put us at ease before we left for vacation. Woody loved them! We received pictures and videos daily for updates and they responded immediately with any questions we had! We would highly recommend them to anyone that needs them!
Alissa came as advertised! She house sat with my two dogs and was just wonderful in her care and communication while I was gone. She is a very positive person who I know Lucy and Luna enjoyed very much. I wouldn't hesitate to have Alissa agin when the need arises
Rebecca took such good care of our dogs and home. She was super personable, flexible, attentive, playful, patient and thoughtful with our pets. She was also professional, prompt and thorough in all communications, including regular photo and message updates on our two pups. We have been completely impressed with and reassured by the way Rebecca watched after our dogs and home while we were away. We will be very happy to work with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Indian Orchard
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Indian Orchard on Rover is $111 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,081 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Indian Orchard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Indian Orchard walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Indian Orchard maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Indian Orchard 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
