“Donna did a great job for us while we were out of town. She provided great care for our dog and house while sitting for us. Our dog immediately warmed up to Donna and accepted her as part of her pack. Donna conducted timely walks with our dog and provided daily feedback on what was happening.”
“Brenda and her family were wonderful! Melon had a BALL at their house and was so well cared for. Brenda has been so kind, communicative, and considerate! We are lucky to have found Brenda and Melon is already booked to go back there again! ❤️”
“Jeff was so kind and took great care of our two cats while we were away for the holiday weekend. Our girls can be very timid and they warmed up to him no problem. He came over and met with us on short notice, and was very professional. Highly recommend his services to anyone. Thanks again!!”
“I had an amazing experience with my dog and pig sitter, Eliza, who stayed at my home for over a week. She took exceptional care of both my dog and pig, and I came home to animals that were clearly happy, relaxed, and well-loved. Eliza made sure both animals received their medicine (rolling with the punches because Buddy got an infection right before we left so it was an added responsibility she took on in stride) Eliza was incredibly thoughtful and sent regular photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the pictures and her communication that my pets were getting real attention, not just basic care. She was also very communicative and responsive whenever I had questions, which made everything feel easy and stress-free. My dog Buddy clearly bonded with her during the stay, he actually seemed a little sad when Eliza left, buddy went to the room she stayed in when we got home from our trip 😂 before sleeping where he usually. Highly recommend I would trust Eliza again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter.”
“Audrey took great care of my dog, spent time playing with her, and made sure she got outside and exercised. She was also able to accommodate a same-day request when I was in a pinch, which was very helpful and much appreciated. Overall, a positive experience.”
“Anna took excellent care of our two cats and home! She followed all instructions exactly as we left them, sent lots of updates and photos, and left our home in absolutely perfect shape. We're thankful for not being worried at all about our cats and home while we were away on a short trip and would love to book with Anna again in the future!”
About: I have spent my life with cats, dogs, and a host of farm animals and know just how individual each pet can be! I am well-versed in senior pet care, medication administration, walks of any length, and am happy to follow whatever routine is most comfortable for your pets! I work full time during the week, but I am available on weekends, evenings, and will post for all-day availability every other Friday. I can work around any times during those dates I have available! I always aim to for seamlessly into your pets routine, whatever that looks like! I will follow any plans you have in place to keep your pets comfortable and safe.
“Salina is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She takes the best care of our elderly dog and quickly built a close bond with our shy girl. Salina is quick to respond and send photo updates often. We couldn’t be happier with her services. Look no further then Salina when considering a dog walker/sitter.”
“Tricia was great with our cats! She sent daily updates and pics which helped us be away from the kitties as this was the first time we have used a service. Highly recommend!!”
“Boning was a great sitter for our two dogs! She gave us daily updates with lots of photos, made sure our picky eater was actually eating and she kept our home in great shape! I would absolutely recommend Boning to anyone looking for overnight in home care.”
“Kyla was superb. She communicated throughout her stay in our home, and our pup and house were both in better shape than when we left it. I loved her wake up and bedtime updates but she sent pictures and updates throughout the day which helped my daughter feel better about leaving our pup behind for our vacation. We would be lucky to have Kyla sit for us again!”
“Jenie is a rock star! She took phenomenal care of our sheltie Pepper. Super communicative, reliable, and trustworthy. She cared for Pepper for eight days and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Jenie has our highest recommendations.”
“Becki is a great sitter with experience, professionalism and compassion for pets in her care. We felt so comfortable knowing she would care for our pup and do exactly what was needed. I think they had a great time too!”
About: I love all pups and will treat your fur babies as my own 🐾 I have been caring for big dogs since I was a child and have always had a love for them. I also have previous experience working at a doggie daycare, with dogs all breeds, ages, and sizes. I have a somewhat flexible schedule and will be home with your pups to follow their bathroom and feeding schedule and get lots of play time and cuddles while they’re in my care! I wake up around 7 am, feeding and bathroom routine, play time and walks throughout the day. I can also stick to any routine needed. There is currently one dog in my home, so I will only be caring for one additional dog at a time. My apartment complex has grassy areas for bathroom time, and I have plenty of room for your dog to play and rest. Neighborhood walks are also available.
“I really felt comfortable having Caitlin care for my sweet pup today. She was punctual, attentive and bonded quickly with Oliver. They spent time outdoors, and he got lots of his favorite belly rubs.☺️ I will definitely contact Caitlin again when the need arises.”
“Samantha stayed with our dog Sadie in our home while we were out of town for four nights. She did an excellent job - it was clear Sadie was well cared for and enjoyed her time with Samantha. Samantha communicated with us throughout her stay and was a clean, thoughtful house guest. We were very pleased with Samantha and would highly recommend her.”
About: Work from home so have lots of time for walks and snuggles! I have extensive dog sitting experience but no pets of my own, so I give your pooch undivided attention! Work from home so very flexible for dog walking as needed. Love the company and happy to have your fur baby sit by me at my desk and remind to get up and go walking on regular intervals! We have a fenced in yard, and plenty of walking options in suburban and town forest settings. I provide feed and treats as instructed. Unlimited hugs and cuddles!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Medfield
Samantha did a great job taking care of our cat, Sasha! She was on time for the meet and greet and cat sitting start date. She sent lots of photos of Sasha and updates on her eating and litter habits. Sasha sometimes gets lonely when we leave on vacation and has not eaten in the past but ate and played fine and seemed very comfortable with Samantha. Would definitely recommend Samantha for cat/dog sitting!
Sam did a great job looking after our kitties while we were away for the weekend. She's been so great for drop-ins, but this is the first time we've ever had someone stay overnight with them. One of our kitties is particularly attached to us and gets anxious when he's alone, even with his sister around, so Sam made him feel more comfortable and confident while we were away. She had great communication and made sure to send over photos each day. We would definitely book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Medfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Medfield on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 6,964 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Medfield. 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 Medfield 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 Medfield 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 Medfield 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
