“Elizabeth was so great & easy to work with when we booked her a little last minute to watch our dog. She was super responsive, flexible, and took great care of our Winnie!”
“Caroline was a great pet sitter! The dogs were happy and the house was spotless when we got home from our trip. Appreciate all her hard work, even taking the dogs outside during a snowstorm! Planning to hire again immediately. Highly recommended.”
“Sara was amazing! Our 11 month old Violet loved her immediately. We asked her short notice, to stay a few extra hours and she was super accommodating and responsive. Can't say enough positive things about our experience. Will definitely use again!”
“Emily was wonderful with our 10mo puppy, giving him attention and providing enrichment throughout the day, taking him on his midday walk and feeding him lunch. We came home to a happy, wriggly, sleepy puppy. Emily also left the sweetest report card and polaroid shot of Kiwi at the end of the day :)”
“We were so happy to have Devika stay in our home with our dog Lucy while we attended a wedding! Devika was very responsive and sent lots of photos of Lucy which I appreciated. She was available on short notice and left our house in great shape. Thank you Devika!!”
“Charlene is so professional, so focused. It's a pleasure to have her watch my pups. I have not had a good experience with Rover, but Charlene is a 5 star sitter without question. She cares. Period. Will always call Charlene first for my Dogsitting needs.”
“Laura was a great companion to our 5 year old golden doodle over the holidays while were we out of town. Before the sit she asked lots of questions and made she she understood his personality, routines, and needs so he wouldn’t be stressed out while we were away. Once she arrived she made sure he got lots of exercise and attention every day. She sent updates and pictures of him daily and we could clearly tell that he enjoyed her company. While we are sure he was happy to have us home I am sure he missed having Laura around! She also took good care of our home and was a lovely house guest. We are so happy we found her and will definitely have her back in the future. Thank you, Laura!”
“Lilly housesat for six days, providing diligent care for our kitty. She is very good at bonding with our usually cautious cat and left the house pristine. Great service! Looking forward to having her come stay over again.”
“Marcy was absolutely excellent! She was incredibly kind, professional, and kept us updated throughout our trip with plenty of messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. She followed all of our instructions carefully, including giving medication with meals to one of our dogs, and everything was handled perfectly. When we got home, it was obvious our dogs had been well cared for. They were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. The house was spotless too. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with Marcy again. Highly recommend!”
“100% recommend. Best, best friend ever! Annette was delightful to work with. She was punctual, attentive and organized. She stayed with our pups for full 4 days and she was always in touch and feeding the animals the right medications and meals. On top of that she was organized and clean. Lastly, what we enjoyed the most is that our dogs seemed very happy and relaxed with her. She is a true find and look forward to working with her in the near future.”
“Victoria stayed at my house for 5 days and cared for my elderly cat, who needs daily medication. She sent frequent updates and photos and took great care of my dear Nanette. She left the house clean and neat. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and recommend her highly.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for large and small dogs, walking multiple large dogs off-leash, and caring for dogs and cats overnight, or for drop-ins. As a collegiate field hockey player, I can keep up with the highest energy dogs! I love the outdoors and going on walks as well as just staying in and playing with your pets. I love spending time with pets and go out of my way to make time for them! I am happy to stop by and drop in, take them on walks, or house sit. I foster a calm and comfortable space in your home to make your pet feel comfortable when their owner is away! I will adopt any habits you do to make them happy as well.
“Devon did a great job watching our cavapoo Henry. He is very attached to us and he had a wonderful time with her. Devon was very communicative and sent awesome pictures of Henry.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have loved them my whole life. I've dog sat for friends and co-workers, including overnight stays, and always treat your pet and home with the utmost care. I take pride in leaving your home just as clean as I found it while making sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, and cuddles so that you don't have to worry while you're away. I work remotely Monday-Friday with a flexible schedule that allows me to take breaks to care for your pet and give them lots of love during the day! I am able and willing to travel to you and take great pride in being a considerate, tidy, and responsible houseguest. My goal is to leave your home looking like it did before I arrived!
“Linh is fantastic! She house sat for our two pups while we were on vacation for a week. I'm usually nervous about leaving our pups with a new sitter, especially after we had a bad experience with one (not thru Rover) a few years back. But Linh's knowledge and calm, confident demeanor instilled confidence in me so I was able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She sent updates and frequent photos throughout the week. Not only did she leave our house the way we left it, but she washed all of the sheets and towels which was not expected but very much appreciated. We will be using her again for our next vacation and I know the pups will be excited to see her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newton Lower Falls
Amazing as always! We all are big fans of Kathleen’s, over and over repeat customers. She’s done a great week of house sitting for our puppy and a cat, and I couldn’t be more comfortable with her thorough reports, being responsive and reliable. Needless to say, she’s our person of choice whenever we need an eye for our furry kids. Much much grateful 🙏
We were very happy with Julia staying over to take care of our cat. She responded promptly to my emails/texts, sent us daily updates and photos during her stay, and was generally very easy and pleasant to deal with. We'll definitely use her services again in the future.
Colleen is fantastic! She is so considerate of my senior pup’s routine and always attentive to her diet and medication needs. Colleen also helped my very shy pup come out of her shell. And she sends super frequent updates and tons of photos. I’d trust her with my pup any time!
Natalie did an AMAZING job. My old dog was unfortunately having health issues and Natalie was there to love on her and picked up some medication from the vet to try to help her symptoms. I couldn't have hoped for a better substitute for me being there during this difficult time. If you use Natalie for dog sitting, you are definitely leaving your fur baby in capable AND very empathetic/loving hands.
Sarah was absolutely amazing with Blue! She started by asking all the right questions during the meet and greet. Then, during her in-house stay with Blue, she was communicative, sent great updates, and seemed to genuinely enjoying hanging out with Blue. I would 100% recommend Sarah, and plan to rebook the next time I need a dogsitter!
Doron did a fabulous job taking care of our elderly cat and large furball of a dog. Twice a day meds weren't an issue at all and we got some really cute videos of how the pets were doing. We came back to happy pets and a well cared for home :) Thanks again Doron!

FAQs for House Sitting - Newton Lower Falls
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Newton Lower Falls on Rover is $75.28 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 6,963 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Newton Lower Falls. 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 Newton Lower Falls 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 Newton Lower Falls 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 Newton Lower Falls 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newton Lower Falls. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
