“Julie was great! She was easy to communicate with and understood the needs of our two very different dogs. It was clear that they were well cared for while we were away.”
“Our boys come with some quirks, and within moments, we were getting photo updates of them cuddling on to her lap, or asleep on a comfy pillow, making the whole experience feel comfortable and safe. She’s got a way with animals, and we highly recommended her.”
“Jess was fantastic and showed Clay a lot of attention while we were away. She was very quick to respond when we had questions and sent lots of pictures during her time with Clay. I would strongly recommend her to anyone needing someone to look after their fur child while away from home.”
“Taylah was great with Pepper. We got frequent updates, she engaged with Pepper and took her for a walk and gave her great company. Taylah also came by for a meet and greet which was super appreciated. We would definitely book her services again. Pepper loved her!”
“We came home to a happy and well cared for dog! Haleigh sent us updates and pictures throughout the week to let us know how our dog was doing! We loved getting these updates.”
“Christina did an amazing job taking care of our babies while we were away. Christina is very professional and personable. She is a natural animal lover. She even took care of our bearded dragon. Also,our return flight was canceled, so Christina stayed an extra night. The house was spotless and our dogs were extremely happy. I would highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed”
About: Every animal brings pure joy into my life, and I genuinely adore caring for all pets—from energetic wanderers to quiet, gentle souls who take a little time to warm up. I meet every pet exactly where they are, learning their unique language, respecting their boundaries, and making sure their days are full of comfort, safety, and genuine love. Living with my own three-legged dog and having nursed my sweet cats through cancer, I bring deep patience and calm confidence to medical routines, medication schedules, and unique physical needs. Whether your companion needs a brisk walk, a gentle ear scratch, or thoughtful care with their daily treatments, I’d love to connect and give your furry family member the dedicated attention they deserve! I have an open, flexible schedule dedicated to pet care from Sunday to Thursday (all day and evening). Whether your pet needs an early-morning walk, mid-day playtime, or evening drop-in visits and medications, I can easily match their exact routine. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their environment familiar, safe, and stress-free. I strictly follow your established routine—from exact feeding and medication times to favorite walking routes and play habits—so your pet feels secure and comfortable in their own space. During every visit or house-sitting stay, I provide attentive companionship, clean food and water bowls, and handle any necessary light tidy-up around pet areas. You will always receive detailed updates with photos after each visit, giving you complete peace of mind that your home is secure and your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for.
About: I've grown up with all types of pets including dogs (German shepherds, golden retrievers, yorkies, mixed breeds), cats, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. I've been walking, bathing, and properly feeding dogs for my family as well as neighbors and friends since I was in middle school. I love to make animals feel loved and happy and am very attentive to their unique needs. I'm a very active person and am happy to take dogs on the long walks they deserve while keeping things like hydration and overheating in mind here in Tampa! I currently work in a hybrid role that allows me to work from home typically 3 days per week, which means I can spend more quality time with your pet! My typical work schedule is 8 am - 4:30 pm, and any time before or after that can be used for long walks, puppachinos, and park trips near my home in Metarie or on your side of town. I live in a first floor townhouse that has access to very safe and beautiful pedestrian neighborhoods - before leaving my appartment I always "leash up" to prevent a nervous pet from running. In terms of safety I keep chewing hazards like cords and plastics and even foods out of reach from animals. I also find it very important to walk dogs in a way that minimizes pulling, using harnesses that avoid harming their airways. I frequently check for clean water in bowls and general signs of health in pets I care for including energy levels and behaviors (such as avoidance vs comfortability and trust).
About: I have lifelong experience caring for dogs, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, and I’ve cared for many small dogs with different personalities and routines. I specialize in small dogs, generally 25 lbs and under, and provide patient, attentive, and loving care in a comfortable home environment. I understand that some dogs settle in right away, while others need a little extra time and reassurance. Puppies are welcome too! Since they need extra attention and supervision, I generally accept puppies when I don’t have other boarding dogs, so they can receive plenty of one-on-one care. My goal is simple: a happy, comfortable dog and a worry-free owner. I currently have an open schedule, allowing me plenty of time to care for and play with your furry family member. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get the attention and love they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment where they feel secure and loved. I follow any special instructions, maintain a consistent routine, and ensure plenty of supervision, playtime, and care. With patience and attention to detail, I create a stress-free experience so both pets and owners can feel at ease.
“Jaimie was the best. She house sat for my dog for 5 days. Dog loved her (think she might have been disappointed to see that it was me coming home rather than Jaimie). Very responsive, took dog on long walks, sent lots of pics, left house cleaner than when she came (no small feat given that I had professional cleaners come a few days earlier. Terrific to deal with in every way.”
“Erinn is the best! We have two senior dogs, one with special needs after having IVDD surgery, and when we came back from our little trip they were happy as ever. She’s knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly good with the pups. I’ve never seen them so at ease with a stranger. We’ll be booking her again soon!”
“Amy took very good care of my two cats. She sends pictures to me everyday which is a blessing, knowing that the kitties are doing good. She is very responsive and easy to communicate. Would recommend to everyone in need a kitty friend.”
About: Hello and thank you so much for your interest in my pet care services! I absolutely love animals, and have over 8 years of professional pet care experience, both in a Veterinary Hospital and doggy daycare, boarding and grooming facility, as well as working alongside a top rated team of professional dog walkers in Central MA. Working independently allows me to give your pets the extra love and attention they deserve, without the rush, and added treats! :) • I am both Pet First Aid and CPR trained and certified. • Ready to give some extra love to your furry friends? Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! • *Please allow me 24 hours to respond to your request, between the hours of 9am - 3pm, Monday - Thursday. I am currently available for morning, midday and evening drop-in/vacation care visits, or from 10am-3pm Tuesday-Thursday for dog walking/potty break & playtime visits! Do you live on a road unsafe for walking? Or do you wish your four footed friend could spend more time being a dog during the week? How about a trail walk in a local forest? Great for dogs sensitive to noise, who have extra energy, or who just love their time outdoors! Trail walks are an hourly rate and include pickup and drop off for your convenience. I hope to see you and your animal loved ones soon! After working in a pet boarding facility, I greatly appreciate getting to care for animals in their own home. It is much less stressful for the animals, and their pet parents. I have years of experience taking care of animals in an overnight boarding facility as well as in their own home through professional pet care services, and I value transparency, safety, trust and genuine care for all animals!
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a little kid. I am a nurse and love to take care of humans and animals. I currently work 3 12-hour shifts but each week is different. I can make my own schedule so I have some flexibility and would be willing to coordinate I have a cat of my own and we love her dearly! We take her on trips with us. The first thing I do when I get home from work is pet her and love her. When I am at work my fiance is with her and doing the same
About: I started caring for my families pets when I was 6 years old. My neighbors were dog grooming from home, with the occasional cat grooming, so I got to get to know a lot of different things about individual breeds. My husband Evan knows how to train dogs and cats to do just about anything. He is also fluent in asl, a musician, and an artist. I love to give pets my full attention and care because it is relaxing to me. I know a lot of veterinarian technicians as well from my time in trade school. I live near Green Hill Park which is a great place to go for a stroll when the weather is nice. I know what pets are asking for and what to do if anything comes up so if you need special care for your pet they will be safe with me. I am currently available weekends and week nights. If my schedules changes I will update my profile with time off in advanced so that there are no miscommunications or cancellations. I can spend time with your pet playing in the yard or home. I walk pets as frequently as their schedule requires. Every pet has unique care needs. I love to care for pets and give them my full attention. Younger pets are full of energy and love to play so I do my best to get all their energy out so they sleep well and stay healthy. I am able to give pets medication or put them in diapers if required by the owner.
About: Hi! I’ve loved animals my whole life! My own fur babies are 11 and 14 and I’ve had them since they were kittens. I’ve been pet sitting for alittle over two years now. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, and even ferrets! I have experience with pets of all ages (puppies/kitten to seniors) and all sizes. I make sure each pet is shown the love and care they deserve. Im currently a college student who is doing school completely online so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available all days of the week and at any time that is needed. The care and support I give to each fur baby is different based off of their needs. If you have a younger fur baby that needs lot of play I will spend all the time they need to get their energy out. If your have an older fur baby I will make sure to adapt to there needs, for example if they need to go slower on a walk, that’s no problem!
The median cost per night for house sitting in North Grafton is $60
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Grafton
Julie took great care of my 9 month old mini golden doodle! Bella loved playing in the fenced back yard, and had a great time. Julie was able to give Bella some medicine every morning. And there was always good communication and flexibilty. I'll bring her back next time I'm away.
Paulina has watched our two dogs for the past two vacations we’ve taken and has been fantastic! She’s very responsive and provides lots of updates and photos so we always know they’re doing well when we’re not there. She also gives them lots of walks and play time. The dogs are so happy to be able to stay in their own home and we’re always so relieved to leave them where they’re most comfortable. Paulina also goes above and beyond and leaves our home very clean after her stay so we can focus on catching up with our pups when we get home. Recently our flight was delayed and she ran out to get extra dog food so it would be there when we got home. I highly recommend Paulina :)
Nicole was very responsive and patient with the needs of our one more needy dog in particular. She sent us updates and the animals really like her. Her patience is very important to reiterate about our needy dog; he is quite demanding about being left alone and there's a laundry list of "to-do's" before being able to leave him. Nicole really had no problem with any of it. We will definitely book again!
Madelyn was a wonderful housesitter for our pets! Great communication with pictures and updates, she was tidy, respectful, and courteous. I wouldn't hesitate to have her housesit for us again in the future. Our pets were extremely well taken care of and I think they miss her already!
Tara was wonderful! She watched our two cats for a week while we were away and also helped take care of our home. She showed up promptly for a meet and greet before her stay and was warm and friendly with our cats. She stayed in excellent contact with us throughout our trip, and sent lots of adorable pictures. It’s clear that she adores cats and she was a perfect houseguest, as well. We would absolutely book Tara again!

The average cost of House Sitting in North Grafton is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $65 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 North Grafton 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 Grafton 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 Grafton 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Grafton. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
