“Chloe was absolutely amazing! We did a meet and greet before the weekend, which really put me at ease. She was super attentive, stuck to my pups schedule and gave her all the cuddles she wanted. My pup is strong and has a few quirks, but Chloe handled everything with so much patience and care. She most certainly knows how to handle strong dogs & has knowledge with reactivity and redirecting. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog and I couldn’t be more grateful! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Kayla! She took excellent care of our dog and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us confidence that our dog was happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated our dog like one of her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Lila was absolutely amazing. My dogs take a while to get used to new people. They are rescues and require A LOT of patience. Lila provided that and my dogs love her. I feel comfort in knowing my pups are with her.”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, and two cats, plus growing up surrounded by family dogs, I bring genuine, lifelong pet care knowledge! During the week, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate ample time to walking and caring for pets to make sure that they pets receive the attention and exercise they need! Safety and trust are my top priorities when walking pets. I will use whatever leash or harness provided by the owner that is well-fitted to ensure control and comfort. I stay vigilant, avoiding potentially hazardous areas and always checking for traffic before crossing streets. I prioritize a calm and friendly environment, allowing pets to explore safely while providing positive reinforcement and plenty of affection. Your pets well-being is my utmost concern, and I treat them with the same care and respect as I would my own!
“Paulina was absolutely fantastic! I was so happy to receive updates while she was looking over our fur baby. We needed a sitter super last minute and honestly we couldn’t be more grateful. Paulina was super attentive and sweet! Definitely recommend 🩷”
“Haleigh was amazing! She was very attentive and caring. We felt relaxed on vacation knowing our dog was being lovingly looked after. Upon our return, our home was clean and everything was as we left it. I wouldn’t hesitate using Haleigh again!”
“Laura was AMAZING!! We were so blessed to have found her!! Many thanks for the great communication, pictures and fabulous gifts she left for Julian! So thoughtful and kind!! Just cannot say enough great things about this beautiful young lady!! Definitely a keeper!!!”
About: I have a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and four years of hands-on experience working in both a veterinary clinic and a dog kennel/daycare. I’m currently a first-year veterinary student at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, continuing to build my knowledge and skills in animal health and behavior. I’m comfortable administering medications, including injectable medications such as insulin, and have experience caring for dogs with behavioral challenges, including dog-aggressive dogs. My own dog has these challenges, so I understand the importance of patience, proper handling, and creating a safe environment for every pet. I also have experience caring for a variety of animals, as I have a dog and cat of my own. I’m passionate about providing pets with the same attentive, compassionate care I would want for my own. I’ll be starting my first year of veterinary school soon, so my exact class schedule is not set yet. I expect to have the most flexibility in the afternoons and evenings, and I’ll plan my pet care schedule around my classes. My veterinary school schedule may vary from day to day, but I’m committed to being reliable and communicating clearly about my availability. I’ll also have flexibility on weekends and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine. I prioritize trust and keeping each pet’s routine as consistent as possible. For overnight stays, I provide a calm, comfortable environment and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. For drop-in visits and walks, I follow each pet’s individual routine and instructions, including feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and exercise needs. With four years of veterinary clinic and dog daycare experience, along with my current veterinary education, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior or health and handling a variety of personalities and needs. I also have experience with dogs who may be reactive or aggressive toward other dogs, so I take introductions, walks, and environmental safety seriously. My goal is for every pet to feel safe and cared for while their owner is away.
About: I am out of the house for 6 hours a day due to work. I have Fridays and Saturdays off! If your pup is crate trained or can stay in the house alone with no problems, I would love to have them stay with me! I have hands-on experience in pet care, including two years working at a doggy daycare, as well as caring for dogs and cats since I was young. I will do everything I can to ensure your furry friends feel happy, comfortable, and safe while in my care. 🐾 Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I take walks every morning and afternoon and would love to have your dog join me. Your pet will always have my full, undivided attention. I always start by gently building trust with your pet, letting them feel comfortable and secure at their own pace. Once they’ve warmed up, they’re welcome to explore my home freely. I have a variety of cat and dog toys so every pet feels at home. My home is calm, quiet, and full of positive energy. If I ever need to step out briefly, your dog will relax in a cozy crate with soft blankets, fresh water, and a peanut-butter-filled Kong, making it a safe and comforting space while you’re away.
About: My family has only adopted dogs from shelters, so I know the trials and tribulations that come with sweet pups who need love. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experienced many different behaviors. I am currently on summer break from school, so my availability is extremely flexible! I’m open to any time of day you may need. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer to have your dog treated. I will provide love, compassion, and kindness to gain both your trust and your dog’s.
About: My motto: Leave them better than you came in. Whether that means extra cuddles, play time, daily walks, cleaning cages, or cleaning the house, I will make sure that by the end of my first visit, your pet will feel happy, comfortable, and safe with me. About me: I have had pets my entire life and am well-acquainted with the needs of various animals. In addition to my childhood pets, I have taken care of animals for friends and family for about 10 years now. I have taken care of cats, dogs, rabbits, lizards, and birds and understand the importance of finding someone you trust to care for your pet. It is no stress on me to live with your pet for a week, come by for a walk, or drop in and visit throughout the day. I can work around my schedule any day of the week to ensure your pet gets the care they deserve. I can easily leash and crate any animal who requires it. Your pet will get food and love every day (obviously!) If needed, I will take your pet for walks regularly and take pride in my ability to keep a space clean, including cleaning up after a pet in the yard or in public. All doors and windows will stay locked and will be checked before I leave the residence, all lights will be turned off when not in use, and I don't run washing machines, dryers, or dishwashers when I am away.
About: I have always had a love for all pets and have always had dogs in my family home ! I always look foward to meeting new furry friends and caring for them as if they were my own ! I’m currently not working at the time and with the weather slowly warming up I have a lot of free time to walk your pups , play ,etc ! Keeping your pets safe is my number 1 priority! I don’t have a yard unfortunately but a lot of parks and trails along Quinsigamond where I live along with a great field that I go to often with my dog and great neighbors with great dogs !
“Jody did a great job for us while we were away on vacation. Our 2 dogs enjoyed her company and she even worked with our pup on walking etiquette. We left rather detailed instructions, including watering outside plants, and she followed them to a T. I would highly recommend booking with Jody and we will be also!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Grafton
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!
Julie is THE VERY BEST! We have three older dogs who can be challenging. She gave them such loving attention and care. Julie always kept us abreast of their status with updates and photos. When we got home, our dogs were happy to see us, but they didn’t seem as jubilant as they normally do. THAT’S A TESTAMENT to Julie. THEY LOVED HER!!! And that’s what every family should want for their pups. Have no reservations about hiring Julie. We will be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Julie!
We had a wonderful experience with Kayla! She took excellent care of our dog and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us confidence that our dog was happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated our dog like one of her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - North Grafton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Grafton on Rover is $42.74 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,127 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Grafton. 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 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 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.
