“Kya enjoyed her time with Anne. She got to be around water for the first time and meet new friends, dog and human alike. I knew she would have an adventure with Anne and she certainly did. Thank you for taking care of my sweet girl!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 14. Family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and take care of their pets for short or long trips. I prefer to spend time with the animals I am taking care of, as I think the more time you spend with and love you give to them the more comfortable they are. I value time with animals greatly; they have been a huge part of my life, and always will be. I find much fulfillment and joy in spending quality time with the animals I can take care of. I currently work full time, Monday-Friday 8-4:30. I would be available evenings after 5, and anytime on the weekends. I am available to stay the night if needed. I would prefer to have your pets out in free range with me while I am there. I would like to spend as much time walking or being outside, or at least playing inside, or maybe all he/she will need is a good belly rub and some comfortable relaxing with someone.
“Heather cared for our beloved pets in our home over a long weekend, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She was incredibly kind, caring, and attentive, and never hesitated to ask questions when it came to properly administering medications to our two dogs. She treated our pack like they were her own and did an absolutely wonderful job caring for them. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. I’m so grateful we found her - she’s truly amazing!! ❤️”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life—I currently have three dogs and a cat, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, from tiny teacup Chihuahuas to large dogs like German Shepherds, Great Danes, Malinois, Pit Bulls, and Mastiffs. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I adapt easily to their needs—whether that means relaxing with mellow seniors or keeping up with high-energy breeds like Huskies, Border Collies, and Terriers. I also have experience caring for blind dogs and service dogs, and understand the extra attention and care they may need. I always aim to help your pup feel comfortable and safe with me, and I pride myself on being highly adaptable to whatever their unique needs may be. I am graduated and a licensed esthetician practicing here in jackson. I work part-time, I like to stay busy so I have worked with dogs for a few years consistently on the side. I am very flexible and rarely say no to a request! At home, I have three well behaved dogs—a senior Lhasa Apso, a Labrador, and a French Bulldog. They are all crate trained, fully potty trained, and very well cared for. We take pride in keeping our pets happy, healthy, and comfortable, and that same level of care extends to every pet I work with. I always want your pets to feel safe and at ease with me, and I’m happy to follow any specific routines or preferences you have to make sure they feel right at home!
“Reese took exceptionally good care of our dog and house while we were on vacation this summer. When our travel schedule was altered last minute, Reese was very flexible and accommodating. While she was here she gave Cosworth his meds without any problems or complaints. And most importantly, Cosworth liked her! Reese is very conscientious and takes her Rover assignments seriously. We recommend Reese without reservation, and hope she’ll come back to take care of Cosworth for us again.”
“Julie is a blessing for Poncho and I, while we stay in town for 4 months, for work. She is very easy to talk to and communicative. She is very good with poncho, a 100lb pitbull. Thank you Julie!!!”
“Brittany helped us in a pinch and was so good with our Great Dane, Rosemary. We appreciated her responsiveness and all the photos and videos she sent of their time together. She clearly has a genuine love for dogs and knows how to care for them. We came home to a happy and relaxed pup and couldn't be more grateful. Rose made a new friend, and we look forward to using her services again. We highly recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable dog sitter!”
About: I have fed and walked a Labrador retriever, Belgian shepherd, pomchi, beagle and two domestic American shorthairs. If you want to walk your cat, I am your guy! My availability would consist of it being 4pm to 10pm throughout the day; I can check on your fur baby or babies during those times. In my day to day life, I can cut my dog and cat’s nails. I can crate your cat or dog if it is necessary.
“Natasha was absolutely fantastic to work with. Took great care of our furry ones for the weekend. We loved getting pictures and updates. Very responsive and reliable communication. Would book again!”
About: Experienced pet parent of three dogs and one cat offering reliable, loving care for your furry family members. Book now for a happy, healthy stay! Pet care fits into my daily routine through scheduled feeding times, regular walks, playtime, and consistent monitoring for health and behavior changes. Weekly, I incorporate more in-depth activities like grooming, training sessions, and vet visits as needed. In my home, I ensure pets have a safe, clean environment with plenty of toys, regular exercise, and a balanced diet. In a client's home, I follow their specific instructions closely, maintaining their pet's routine, administering medications if needed, and providing lots of love and attention.

About: I was born into a family of pet lovers. We have had a wide array of pets in our home-cats, dogs, lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish and more. I have become my church and friends' go-to pet sitter for years. I not only provide the love and care that pets need, I am also a licensed pet massage therapist, so your pet will get extra love! I am self-employed, so my schedule varies and is very open for providing top notch pet care. My day is better when I am able to provide love and care for animals! I provide pet care in your home and am able to work with your pet(s) specific needs and schedules. I want them to feel as unaffected by your absence as possible!
“Marcin was wonderful and attentive to Murphy. He communicates effectively and keeps me updated daily. I appreciate his diligence and care for my dog. Murphy was happy and calm when I got home. I will surely ask Marcin to be the sitter for Murphy again.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs in my home and I just love animals! I used to volunteer at the humane society, and I was trained to work with cats and dogs, I have over 100 hours of volunteering at the Huron Valley Humane Society. I am new to Rover, but I’ve pet sat outside of this app before! I am currently working part-time, my schedule changes from day to day but for the most part I am available 7 days a week and can check in up to 3 times a day with your animal! I will prioritize each pets safety, comfort and routine every visit. I will also ensure that I follow all instructions required by owners and am also happy to communicate updates/photos so they feel confident in their pets wellbeing. Overall, I want the animal and the owner to feel as comfortable as possible when working with me!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 87 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Adams. 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 North Adams 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 North Adams 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 North Adams 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
