About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care As a college student at mass maritime, I have class for at least a few hours every day with some days being longer but I can definitely work around my classes to give your pets the best care I will follow any rules and care instructions you give, also I won’t snoop around or go anywhere in your house that you don’t want me to be.
About: Hi, I have had several different dogs in my life. Five years ago we got our Cavapoo named Snoopy. In my experience of caring for other dogs, I have housed special needs pups and all types of breeds. I love learning about the different breeds of dogs! I really have developed a love for all dogs I have met through the years. I would love to care for your dog, while it’s for a week, overnight or just for the day. My dog Snoopy gets along well with all dogs and we would love some company for him as well, as he is just the only dog in the house. We have a home with lots of space and will definitely be able to find a space where your dog is most comfortable. Also, all of my children are older now and are great with dogs and truly enjoy their company. Looking forward to meeting and caring for your dog in the near future!! - the Caleshu family Pet care fits nicely in our daily routine as we have a dog ourselves, and have a nice big yard that we would love to share with other dogs!! For caring for your dog, I will ensure they will have a great time, ensuring they have nutritional snacks and play time with my dog.
“Carolyne was able to help me out with a last minute sit and took great care of my dog. Will use her again and greatly appreciate her. Smokey is looking forward to hanging out with her again in the future.”
“Olivia stayed w our 5 month old puppy, 4 year old dog, and 14 year old cat for 2.5 days. She took great care of them and our home. I really appreciated how she reached out daily for updates and to provide photos of our pets. Our pets were well loved in our absence. Highly recommend!”
“Sharon was wonderful with watching and bringing our dog to our wedding. She clearly really cares about dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We felt very comfortable with leaving him in her capable hands. We will certainly have our dog stay with Sharon again when we are back on the cape! We can’t recommend her more! Thank you Sharon!!”
“We could not be happier with Jared! He watched our 3 dogs and 2 cats for four days, and he did an absolutely outstanding job. From the moment we left, we felt completely comfortable knowing all of our fur babies were in such caring and responsible hands. Jared sent us pictures and updates throughout the entire time, which meant so much to us and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Every one of our pets was clearly happy, comfortable, loved, and extremely well cared for. Taking care of five animals is no small task, and Jared handled everything wonderfully. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about them and treated them like they were his own. We came home to happy pets and everything exactly as it should be. We would 100% trust Jared with our animals again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone dependable, attentive, caring, and trustworthy. Thank you, Jared, for taking such amazing care of our fur babies! 🐶🐶🐶🐱🐱❤️”
“Ashley was absolutely wonderful to work with. From the first meeting to the last day, our dogs and home were under the best care. She went above and beyond to ensure that our dogs were happy and comfortable while our family was away. From daily check ins to sending pictures, it gave the family a sense of comfort and security knowing that the dogs were happy and safe. We would absolutely recommend Ashley to anyone and look forward to booking with her again.”
“Kailey was great! We have a brand new puppy and our older dog injured her paw, so it certainly wasn’t the easiest job but she handled it like a pro. She was communicative and professional.”
“Karen communicated wonderfully, followed our requests and send photos of the babies. We were super pleased with her and will be having her back again soon next time we are away!”

Make sure to always have an eye on them when they are walking around the house.
About: Hi, my name is Kerry, and I’m an experienced and caring pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all ages and personalities. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, and cats, including pets that need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable walking dogs of different sizes and temperaments, helping with basic puppy training and routines, feeding, playtime, and providing plenty of companionship and affection. I understand that every pet is different, and I always try to follow their normal routine so they can feel safe, relaxed, and happy while their family is away. I’m currently working full-time as a pet care professional, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available every day for dog walks, drop-in visits, and personalized care for your pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routine, space, and individual needs. During walks, I focus on safety, exercise, attention, and making sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for.
“Dani was great. We needed a last minute booking, and she responded promptly. Our pet is a bit of a drama dog and pretty much pouts while we are away. Dani rolled with it and managed to get him to cuddle a bit. We will definitely keep Dani in mind for future bookings.”
“Sarah was great! She watched my dogs for the weekend while I was away and took excellent care of them. She kept me up to date with pictures and let me know if anything was concerning with my dogs! I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone needing a reliable sitter!”
“Cassidy stayed in our home with our golden retriever, Corbin, for 9 days and she was amazing! Corbin loved her and she was always prompt, respectful, and responsive. We will absolutely be contacting her again for our next vacation!”

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was in highschool. I have taken care of 3 dogs at once and enjoy running around and bringing them on walks. I love to snuggle and give all my love to every pet! This will be my daily as well as weekly routine. Whatever anyone needs I am willing to be flexible to their pets and the families I have a fully fenced in yard with lots of room to run around. I have a loving lab that would love to have a playmate. However I also have two extra rooms and will be willing to separate the dogs for whatever reason. Anything to make your fur baby feel more at home
“Jackie is the best! She stayed at our house with our babies for 8 nights while we were overseas, and Brenda and Dylan just loved her. She sent tons of photos and was in touch every day so we knew what they were up to. And she even baked them homemade dog biscuits! Cannot recommend her highly enough!!”
“Alison was excellent. Gave frequent updates and went out of her way to help out with pick up and drop off. Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be using in the future.”

Kaitlyn is an amazing sitter! She took such good care of my pup Macy for a week so that I could travel to see family. She also took great care of my home, and stayed overnight to care for my pup. She’s the best! I’ve already booked with Kaitlyn again for our next trip 💕
Maria was very dependable and took great care of our home and our leash-reactive city dog. She responded promptly to messages and assured us that all was going well. Our dog was relaxed and happy when we got home and the house was just as clean as we had left it. Fair rate and great service— highly recommend!

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 Sandwich 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 Sandwich 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 Sandwich 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
