“Erin just watched our 2 dogs and we couldn't have been happier. Both dogs were happy to meet her, and seemed very happy when we returned. We have a senior dog, and a younger dog with some anxiety. Communication from Erin was great! We will certainly use hr in the future!”
“Bre is great! From the moment we met I could tell she knows what she’s doing and does it well. She asked all the right questions, acknowledged my dog and cats and they were instantly comfortable with her as well. She messaged me to let me know she arrived and sent me pictures daily. She left the house clean and I could tell the animals were happy and relaxed. I will definitely book her again! Go with Bre, you won’t be displeased!”

Thank you Isabell - we would like to use you again!”
“Halle took excellent care of our dogs while staying in our home. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She followed all of our instructions, kept our house neat and tidy, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and happy. We came home to a clean house and two happy pups!”
About: Animal care is a big part of my life — I have four pets including a pit-bull, two lab mixes and a cat of my own, plus a year of experience walking and house sitting dogs and cats through my partner's pet care business. I treat every pet like my own, and your animal's safety and comfort always come first. I have just recently left my full time teaching job, so I can now give my full time, attention and effort into your furry family I care for pets by sticking to their normal routine — feeding, water, and exercise on schedule. Since I don't watch dogs at my own home, visits happen at the client's house, whether that's a drop-in, walk, or house sitting. I do a quick safety check, send photo updates, and leave things just as I found them.
“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.”
“Rachel was a wonderful sitter for our dog Moose. She took the time to do a meet and greet prior to watching him, was great at communicating during the visit, and sent lots of sweet pictures.”

About: Hey there! I’m Tia, your friendly neighborhood pet sitter! 🐾I’m all about sun, nature, and furry fun! While I may not have professional pet care credentials, I've got a heart full of love and a lifetime of experiences with pets. From rescuing a cat named Kai and a pup named Marlo while working abroad in China to growing up surrounded by five golden retrievers (Luna, Marlin, Millie, Meadow, and Pheebs) and few tuxedo cats (Coco, Lola, Mary and Bocce) back home, animals have always been my passion. When your pets are with me, they are my top priority. Whether it's thrilling walks, adventurous hikes, or lazy rainy days, I'm all in for making every moment memorable.

Plus, since I'm actively looking for opportunities to help out, you can count on me to be fully committed to your pet's well-being every step of the way. Your pet's happiness and comfort are my top priorities, and I'm here to ensure they receive the love and care they deserve while you're away.

About: I live on a 4 acre property in Sherborn, MA that is both fenced in and backs up to Conservation Land. Immediately behind my house are miles of quiet trails for hiking & running as well as a natural pond and stream system which is great for the pups who love to swim, play fetch, and cool off in the humid summer months. I grew up here and it is has always been the perfect setting to care for pets when their families go on vacation. About this sitter: I have my Masters of Education in School Guidance and love to be outdoors. Whether hiking, skiing, or gardening I am an outdoor enthusiast and hope to dog walk/sit on the weekends before we get a pup of our own! I have three crates available if this is what your dog prefers for night time, or they are welcome to sleep in my room in their own dog bed.
“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.”
“Ani was absolutely fantastic. She watched our "zoo" (dog, two cats, two guineas) when we had to leave town fairly quickly. She made a stressed weekend feel much less stressful - she responded quickly to messages, communicated frequently, and gave all our pets a ton of love and attention. Everyone seemed relaxed and happy when we returned home.”
“Tina was great! My dog was a bit sick and she took good care of her. Tina is an upbeat person which I think was fun for Ruby! Tina communicates well. I have already booked her again. Highly recommended!”
“Marcy was a brilliant, attentive and caring sitter for our dog and cat while we took a two week trip. She was always responsive, sent daily updates, and was even flexible enough to stay on an extra two days. Would book again in a heartbeat!”
About: I have been providing in-home pet care for over 4 years now, with plenty of experience walking, caring for, and loving dogs. I have administered medicine, and am cpr and first-aid certified. I currently have 1-2 daily walks scheduled everyday Monday-Friday, and am looking to add up to 6 walks everyday! I’m hoping to have breaks between every 2-3 walks in order to care for any pet I am currently caring for in-home. I will always meet you and your pet(s) before any one on one care to ensure that we are a perfect match! Your pet’s comfort and happiness is my top priority.

Eliza stayed at our house with our dog for 6 days. We have a sweet dog who is reactive with other dogs and she really put our mind at ease knowing it was her who was there with him while we were away. Eliza is a great communicator, very professional, approachable, and highly qualified. We will definitely book her services again and highly recommend her to anyone interested in quality pet care that puts your mind at ease!

The average cost of House Sitting in Medway is $72 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $89 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Medway 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 Medway 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 Medway 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
