“Julie was amazingly flexible, as our schedule was unknown, and was there when we needed her. More importantly, she was good with Ricky, took him out for walks as well as for his sanitary needs, and kept us regularly informed, with pictures. If we are in the area again we will seek her to assist us, and Ricky, again.”
“Eryn always takes wonderful care of my girls and loves them like her own! I've had her house sit twice now and she is respectful of my house as well, communicates with me appropriately, and makes me feel much better when I have to leave the animals for trips! Will definitely continue to have her keep an eye on my girls in the future”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since childhood, from growing up with a Labrador to caring for my own pets. With five years working in a grooming salon, I’m experienced in meeting the needs of all dogs, such as playful puppies, adult dogs, and seniors alike. I’m passionate about providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each dog’s personality and health. I’m currently a part-time PetSmart employee and a college student, which means I have weekday afternoons available for pet care. Weekends aren’t always ideal, but I’m happy to discuss arrangements and see what’s possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their usual routine so your pet feels comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, bathroom breaks, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs; whether it’s helping a puppy burn off energy, giving extra patience to a shy dog, or offering gentle care for seniors. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
“We booked Brianna last minute. She made time to come and meet with us and our pup. She took great care of Roscoe and our home. Sent lots of pictures and was good with communication. Recommended!”
“Georgia was great during her 32-day house and pet-sitting stay. I can't recommend her enough. We felt completely at ease leaving our home and dogs in her care. She's trustworthy, communicates well, and clearly knows what she's doing with pets. Our dogs are usually off their game after we've been away for a few days, but they seemed totally normal when we got back. The house was well taken care of and exactly as we left it. We'll definitely book Georgia again and suggest you do the same if you get the chance.”
“Sarah is a phenomenal dog sitter. My anxious dogs bonded with her immediately so I felt very comfortable leaving for my trip. She texted multiple updates a day, including pictures. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: Calm, quiet environment with a sitter who craves doggy time. My 12 year old black lab recently lost her fight with cancer. Not ready to bring home a new dog, but would love to care for your precious fur babies while you are away. I offer patience and attention to your canine's needs. I'm a human nurse but also experienced with dogs special needs such as insulin administration. I work Monday-Friday, Home on weekends. No young children. Available for walks, dog Parks (dog park with your approval), or hanging out in the yard secured on a 50 foot lead. Dogs are not left outside unattended. You're welcome to bring your pets favorite toy for us to use during their stay. Will try to keep them on your schedule for easy transition from home to sitter. I speak to animals as of they can respond. Days are better with happy pets! Friday drop-off at 5:30 pm. Sunday pick-up by 8:00pm. I have a large yard and a spacious house. Spend weekend around the house doing small projects, crafting or cleaning. It's a quiet, stress free household with a very flexible schedule. While I miss my own pet I'm looking to offer a love-centered environment similar to children visiting their favorite Aunties house.
“Charlie had another great stay with Jessica. She was attentive to him, letting us know his chronic cough was increasing. She managed it well, professionally and patiently, with permission from us to give an extra dose of one of his medications. She communicated with us throughout the stay-”
About: My passion for caring started with dolls and stuffed animals, but has grown from that to animals and children. I've had experience taking care of many animals in the past (turtles, bunnies, cats, and dogs) and have extended my experience with animals to outside the home doing volunteer work. I'm currently enrolled in college taking Early Childhood Education classes and love to fill up my free time by taking care of animals! I go to school part time, and am currently finishing up the semester, so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pet(s)! I'm very flexible and can work on most if not all days of the week or weekend. Any time too! Just let me know what you need at least a day in advance and I'll do my best to deliver. Safety is my top priority. I take everything into consideration, and I'm very curious about each individual pet. I look for anything that could be a potential hazard and pay close attention to the needs of each animal. I love to play games and spend quality time with animals. I love cooking and preparing meals, so I get that same joy when prepping meals for a pet as well.
“Molly was wonderful with our high needs elderly dog. Molly was communicative, responsive, and sent many updates and photos throughout the day. We hope to have Molly watch our dog again and highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I love animals of all types, I have 3 dogs myself and have animals my whole life. I used to volunteer at a humane society. I believe in trying to give animals the best life possible. I will make your pet fit into my schedule multiple times a day. I work full time but can schedule a head of time to make sure all of your pets needs are fulfilled. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for my 3 dogs. I walk them at a minimum one time a day (depending on the weather) and also make sure I make time to play with them as well.
About: ✨ Pisces. Dog lover. Professional belly-rub giver. With 12+ years of animal care experience and certifications in Pet CPR, First Aid, and Pet Care, your furry bestie is in safe, loving hands.

Whether your dog is a certified couch potato, a zoomie champion, or the neighborhood social butterfly, I'll match their energy and make sure they feel right at home. Expect lots of love, plenty of updates, and probably way too many adorable photos. Fair warning: your pup may leave a little spoiled and wondering when they get to come back. 🖤🐾 I’m currently working part-time my schedule varies. I’ll have plenty off time to play with your dog! I’m available weekdays and weekends in any type of weather. Caring for my pets or anyone else’s animals is a top priority of mine! I enjoy teaching my animals tricks, making sure they are happy, healthy, and well fed.
“Ash was wonderful with my anxious dog Charlie! Ash was so sensitive to reading Charlie's needs, took things slow, and within 24 hours they were fast friends! Ash was extremely communicative, providing multiple updates and pictures throughout the day. He took Charlie to his favorite dog park, and now we're going to pursue training with Ash to work on Charlie's confidence. The house was beautifully looked over as well. Cannot recommend enough across the board, but particularly if you have special needs dogs or a puppy who is anxious/with behavioral challenges.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Chicopee
Having Julie G house sit and care for my 85 lb. hound Dave was dreamlike. She seemed to accept and appreciate Dave and his coonhound ways seamlessly from the jump. She took copious notes about Da daily needs and expectations at the meet & greet, asked intelligent questions about his routine and I was able to leave town completely confident Dave was in good loving hands. She sent me daily pics and reports while I was away, and left Dave mellower and the house cleaner than it was when I left. A terrific experience from my perspective Can't recommend Julie G strongly enough as a house and hound sitter.
She did an absolutely fantastic job for a week with our fur babies. They were absolutely spoiled and she was attentive to our old boys needs! She made sure to check in with updates often. She took care of our pets and our home. She left the home cleaner than when she arrived. I will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone that is looking for exceptional care for their fur babies!
Brooke was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We reached out with a last-minute request, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to work with from the start. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages, photos, and videos which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious our dogs were getting plenty of love, attention, and great care while we were away. We came home to two very happy pups! We’d absolutely book with Brooke again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative sitter.
Bianca did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet but sensitive Miss Ellie! Given some weather and smoke (Canadian wildfires) challenges, Bianca made sure Ellie was walked/exercised daily, but stayed safe in the heat and smoke. Her communication was great and sent us frequent updates with pictures and videos which assured us Ellie was in good hands and well taken care of. Ellie bonded with her quickly. Bianca also took great care of our home and completed the multiple chores we asked to be done. Do not hesitate to book Bianca if you need a reliable and responsible pet sitter. We will definitely be hiring her for our future needs. A+
Drew is a highly recommendable house and pet sitter. My cat and dog liked them from the first minute on. And so did we: Drew is professional and courteous, highly intelligent, reliable, flexible and organized. At the same time, they have a m genuinely friendly and sweet personality, a wide range of interests, and a good dry humor. They left the pets happy and the household spotless. We will hire them any time and recommend them full heartedly. 🌸
Steph did a great job house sitting for us, from watering (many) plants to filling the birdbaths every day. Most important, our dogs loved her. She took care of their medication, special diets, etc., but also spent time playing with them and couching out which made them happy. She kept in good touch with us as well. We’ll definitely use Steph again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,011 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Chicopee. 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 Chicopee 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 Chicopee 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 Chicopee 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.
