“Omar was amazing! He took care of our 5 dogs at our home for 15 days with no issues. Omar is exactly the petsitter we needed to feel comfortable traveling in our retirement. We're already planning our next trip and will definitely be booking Omar to care for our dogs and home.”
“We've been using Melissa for dog walking and just had our first overnight sit with her. She is responsive and communicative throughout the process. She takes great care of my dogs. On her first walk, one of my puppies had explosive diarrhea in his crate, and she stay for at least 30 minutes cleaning him and the crate up. She left out house sit with the house in clean condition. I'm very glad to have found someone reliable to watch/walk our two babies!”
“We came back to a clean house and happy dogs, which is difficult because Coco is never happy with anyone. :) Coco must have had an especially good time, because she was in a very good mood. And my old lady, Maya, looked well cared for and clean, which is tough given her incontinence problems. The house looked well cared for as well. Meredith herself was extremely professional and responsive! I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I've had pets my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I treat every pet like they're my own and understand how important it is for owners to feel at ease while they're away. I've helped friends and family with their pets over the years, and I know every animal has their own personality and comfort level. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone and receive plenty of supervision, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. Whether your pet is working on potty training, crate training, or following a specific routine, I’m happy to help keep things consistent while they’re in my care. I provide a safe, clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs receive regular walks, potty breaks, and exercise based on their individual needs and energy levels. For privacy and safety reasons, I don’t offer home tours.
“Lauren was a wonderful house sitter! She kept me updated with plenty of photos and short summaries of what my pets were up to each day. I didn’t have to worry at all that my pets were well taken care of during my vacation! I came home to a clean house and happy animals. I would definitely book with Lauren again!”
“Sam was an amazing sitter for our 3 dogs and they loved her company so much. She watched the dogs while we had to travel far for a concert and she kept them loved and entertained until we returned. She is kind, sweet and clearly loves our dogs. She updated us with photos and kept us up to date frequently. We will hire her again without question!”
“We had a great experience leaving our dogs, cat, and home in Annie's care! She was communicative and shared lots of photos but also gave us the freedom to enjoy our time away. The animals seemed to enjoy their time with her and the house was in great shape when we came home. Really all you can ask for! We look forward to using Annie's services again in the future.”
“Andrew took incredible care of our furbaby Arlo while we were away for a week long trip. Arlo is an anxious and high energy pup. Andrew did a fantastic job keeping Arlo in a good routine, including plenty of walks and managing his allergy diet. He sent us regular picture updates every day which made us feel so much better knowing Arlo was doing well. Arlo really developed a strong bond with Andrew. We highly recommend Andrew for pet sitting and will definitely be reaching out to him in the future. Thank you Andrew!”
“Fahad stayed at my house and took great care of my two dogs while I went away for a couple of days. He sent updates with pictures, my dogs were walked and happy, and my house was very clean when I arrived home. He also left treats behind for the doggos which was so nice! I would definitely book him again!”
“Emma was a great dog sitter. She was both communicative and diligent in sending updates. The dogs were happy and well taken care of when we got back. Emma was also very flexible and understanding about logistical challenges that came up with travel and willing to accommodate where she could. I would definitely rebook Emma again for our next trip.”
“Natalie was amazing. She took great care of my older cat, anticipating what he needed to be more comfortable. She sent updates and photos regularly and left the house clean and neat. Highly recommend!”
About: What I might lack in professional certifications, I make up for in genuine love and attentiveness. I've cared for small breeds like Chihuahuas and poodles for a close friend, and those experiences were nothing short of wonderful — I treated their dogs like family, and it showed. I'm patient, observant, and quick to pick up on a dog's individual quirks and needs, whether that means a specific walking pace, favorite toys, or just extra cuddle time. I believe the best care comes from someone who genuinely wants to be there, and that's exactly what I bring. Your dog won't just be looked after — they'll be adored. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I offer dog walking services and keep a flexible schedule to accommodate your pup’s needs. I’m reliable, punctual, and treat every walk as a chance to give your dog the exercise, stimulation, and one-on-one attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority. I have experience caring for dogs through friends and family, so I understand how important it is to follow each dog’s routine and individual needs. I’m attentive, calm, and great with small to medium breeds including Cavapoos, Mini Dachshunds, Golden Retrievers, and hypoallergenic breeds. You can trust your pup is in caring, responsible hands.
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 9 years old, starting with my grandma's exotic birds and later expanding to bearded dragons, geckos, cats, and my first dog, Max, a Jack Russell Terrier who passed away at 14. After losing Max, my family struggled to find another dog to fill his shoes but still wanted to experience the love and joy dogs bring. That’s when I started my journey as a dog walker 9 years ago. Since then, I've expanded my skills to include dog training, grooming, and general care. I’ve been proud to maintain a 5-star rating and have had the privilege of working with over 100 dogs (and counting!). Through it all, I've met so many wonderful owners and shared countless moments with their dogs, teaching me just how much love and joy our furry companions bring into our lives. Rover has allowed me to express my passion in ways I never imagined, and I love being able to share my adventures with your pets. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pup or cat with the same love, care, and respect as family, I’d be honored to help. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I’m currently working from home so I will have more than enough time with your pup or cat. My routine will based around your pet’s needs. #1 priority. I treat both pet and clients homes as they were my own. Communication and transparency go a long way expect nothing less from me. I will follow any specific instructions needed to best suit your dogs needs.
“We can’t say enough positive things about Volkan! Our dog Kiko spent 9 days with him, and she was the happiest we’ve seen her in our absence. Thank you so much for your care, dedication, and consistent communication. We’ll definitely be asking for your help in future!”
About: I have experience with puppies and mature dogs; specifically, but not limited to breeds such as pit bulls, shitzus, and dachshunds. I am gentle, kind, caring, and patient; attentive to the needs of animals and the routines set by their owners. I am currently unemployed so I am available at all times. I work freelance as an artist from my home studio, so I can be as flexible and responsive to pre-existing routines. I live alone with no pets in a pet friendly apartment complex near a public park, a dog park, and near Logan Airport. I understand that routine and crating is crucial for maintaining an animal's safety and comfort, so I have no issue complying with such requests.
“Katie was amazing. She initiated a meet and greet! She stayed at my home watching my beloved puppy Alabaster. She kept me updated all throughout the time with pictures and updates. When I returned my puppy was more calm when I returned than when I left. I will absolutely have Katie watch Alabaster again.”
About: I am a cat mommy and have been caring for the dogs of clients, my family and friends over the past 3 years! I have always loved animals and would love to care for your fur baby I am currently working part time. I work in the evening so I have plenty of free time to care for your pups and fur babies If I am to watch your pet(s) from your home, I would love take them out on walks, give cuddles and play with them! My schedule is pretty open so I am as flexible as possible! If your pet is to come to me, I live on the 3rd floor which requires stairs to access. I have an open field across from my complex and live 6-minutes from beach. I would love to take your pup out to the park or beach to get a good walk in! I have a studio apartment, so while there is not much room in here I can take your pup out plenty hours throughout the day between 8-3:30pm and for a nice walk at night around 8pm. I am okay with using a crate if that is preferred
About: I first discovered my passion for animal care in fifth grade when I brought home and later adopted my class pet, Spot, an anole lizard who remained with our family for two years. Since then, I have continued developing hands-on experience caring for animals, including working with reactive dogs. During the pandemic, my family adopted our dog Henry, and through that experience I gained valuable insight into supporting dogs with anxiety and learning effective, patient approaches to behavioral management. I currently have full availability for the summer and am flexible in accommodating a wide range of pet care needs, including daytime, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize clear and consistent communication with pet owners to ensure I fully understand each pet’s individual needs and routine. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care and make sure every pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving the highest quality care possible.
“Maisel is a fantastic sitter. My pup Charlie has a lot of anxiety and I am always nervous leaving him with someone new. Every picture I got Charlie was smiling - Maisel was great at communicating with me and gave me peace of mind that Charlie was well taken care of. She was extremely respectful of my home and left it spotless. I am so grateful she was able to help and will definitely be asking her to dog sit again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Nahant
We had a wonderful experience with Keelyn as our dog sitter/house sitter over a long weekend. She took great care of our pup and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Communication was easy, our puppy-like golden retriever was clearly happy, well cared for, and content, and we came home to a calm, relaxed household. We would absolutely recommend Keelyn!

FAQs for House Sitting - Nahant
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Nahant on Rover is $111 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 6,091 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Nahant. 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 Nahant 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 Nahant 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 Nahant 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.

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.
