“Taylor took wonderful care of our sweet senior girl (15yo!) who has particular needs and takes meds. Sasha was happy and content when we got home, and our house looked great, too. We’re very grateful for the thoughtful care and would absolutely recommend Taylor.”

“McKenna was able to help with our Aussie-doodle at short notice and we are so grateful! They had a fun day together and she helped him to be active and busy instead of in his kennel for a very long day. McKenna has a lot of experience and knowledge about what dogs need. She communicates regularly and sent some photos during the day as well. Thank you McKenna!!”


About: I have many years of experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies and chickens and am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime and daily care routines. I understand that every pet has unique needs and will make sure they receive plenty of attention and proper care! I work remotely, providing me with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I currently work remotely as a paralegal so I have plenty of time to tend to your pets. I do serve some nights but aside from that will be fully available for walks, potty breaks, feeding and all other activities. I have a large house with a big lawn. I also have a large crate and smaller carriers as well. I do have a pet bunny who will stay in my room and away from all pets.

“Sydney was completely wonderful! Our dogs loved their time with her. She took Louie on a hike and on several walks in a nearby woods. She sent us photos of them , both on walks and when hanging out together. It was clear that she had done everything that we had asked- and much more.”

“Keri was a pleasure to communicate with before and during the pet sit. Our dog, Katy, who is a somewhat recent rescue who doesn't love everyone, took to Keri right way and rested at her feet when we reviewed my long and detailed instructions in our orientation. Katy has a weird behavior associated with her anxiety and that didn't phase Keri at all. Our house has some idiosyncrasies and Keri didn't seem to mind managing those things, like our Berkey water filter needs refilling in a specific way and the AC drips into a bucket so has to be on a timer, etc. Katy also takes medication and other supplements and Keri was great with all that too. We felt confident leaving Katy in her care and, according to our friend who took over for the second week we were gone, all was well with the house (tidy and clean) and all was well with Katy (relaxed and easy). Keri sent me daily communications and photos. Keri even took Katy to the river that we left instructionsn for. I was impressed that Keri took the trouble to do that special outing with Katy. Keri included her husband (with our permission) who also seemed great with Katy. I highly recommend Keri for pet-sitting. She's just super!”

“Caitlin was amazing! It was obvious that Ollie and Daisy loved her. She was very accommodating and took care of our pups with love and kindness. I would ask Caitlin to watch Ollie and Daisy again in a heartbeat! Thank you Caitlin!!”

“I was very nervous about leaving my older dog for a quick trip but Sally was an absolute dream. Right off the bat she eased my concerns and my dog was very comfortable with her. It was clear she was highly knowledgeable about animals and definitely an animal lover! I'm very happy with Sally's communication and I can honestly say she went above and beyond for my fella. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing my precious pup was being spoiled at home. Rest easy with booking Sally, she's a dream to have as a sitter!”
About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats. My family was part of helping a farm when i was little, I got to take care of ducks. They were so cute. I love animals and let me know if you had questions. I work at Marshall’s. I will be taking care of the animals during my days off. I will make sure they have everything they need I grew up with cats and dogs. I love all kinds of animals. I will take good care of them. I can bring them to my house as well.
“Clara is wonderful! Followed all of my dog care instructions, kept the house tidy and, above all, provided excellent company and love to my doggies in my absence! She would regularly share photos and video footage of how they were getting on as well which is always a plus. Would recommend her to anyone who wants top quality dog-sitting.”

About: I love animals! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats so I have been exposed to the needs of animals since being a child. I have 2 of my own cats, Mushu and Micha, so I understand how hard it can be to leave them behind. Let me assure you that I will take great care of your cats and treat them like they are my own! I have 3 years of experience cat-sitting for families. I know how hard it is to find reliable care for your animals, that’s why I’m here to help! Hi! I am a college student who is home for the summer. I have a part time job, but I can easily accommodate visits. Please reach out, I would love to take care of your pet! In my home I feed, brush, and cut the nails of my cats. I also clean and change their litter boxes when necessary. I have some experience administering medicine, but only pills and tick medicine.
“Brenna was an amazing pet sitter for us. We have two dogs, both seniors, and one with significant health issues. It is always hard to leave him but had our son's wedding in Canada to attend. Brenna sent constant updates and photos to ease our mind while away. They were very well cared for and loved. I would use Brenna again in a heart beat!”

About: I have been a volunteer at the Berkshire Humane Society for about 6 months now working within the kennel and have been trusted with friends and family's dogs throughout my life! I have personally trained both of my large breed pups and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs! <3 I currently work part-time from Fri-Sun so I have full availability throughout the week to play with your pup(s)! I will always find the best time and place to give your pets what they need. I am not able to bring pets to my apartment, but will gladly give them all the care and attention they need in their home, or out and about!

“Kelly was organized and attentive to every detail about our three dogs with wide ranging needs. She visited in advance, took copious notes and followed up on everything to double check. We will use her again and are very appreciative of her services.”
About: Working in various Grooming/Training facilities. I'm currently working with Bumblebee Pet Care with 5 of my own clients. My conversations with the pets are amazing. I'm currently walking dogs 2 days out of the week looking for more to work with within the week. I have an open schedule and interested. I have separate spaces available for each animal. In my care at anytime, I will use provided equipment for transportation. Your pet safety is number one.
About: Hello! I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover with experience with everything from chickens and horses to cats and dogs. I have two canine family members myself: a medium-sized mix named Bonnie and a 10-pound Italian Greyhound/chihuahua named Rio. I know how hard it can be to find loving, reliable, and safe pet setters, which prompted me to open up my own home. My work-from-home career and spacious property allows me the flexibility to fully care for your pet without any interruptions such as commutes or 9-5 work hours. PLEASE NOTE: At this time, I am not taking any new clients for boarding, but I AM available to dog or cat sit in YOUR home for both new and existing clients. Please see my profile and rates for in-your-home sitting. Thank you! I am fortunate to enjoy a fully remote, flexible career, which means I am always present for your canine or feline family members. I can work easily from your home (WiFi is my only requirement) so I can ben present for your pups or cats. I think it's important to a pet's sense of wellbeing to be able to keep to their usual schedule as best as possible while in my care. For my clients who come to me: I live on five acres in a log home in a beautiful hilltown in Western Massachusetts, and have a fully fenced yard. I love taking my own pup on daily walks on our property or on nearby dirt roads, so if you have an active dog who needs exercise, I'm your person! If a less active lifestyle is better for your dog, I can fully accommodate that as well. Pets are allowed on my furniture and can make themselves cozy by my wood stove in winter or on my sunny deck in summer. I am familiar with using crates (if desired, but not required) and have a large finished basement perfect for playtime in the winter months.
About: I've always carried a deep passion to care for animals since I can remember. I love dogs that are not mine as if they were my own! I have many years experience caring for dogs and other animals. Ive always had jobs in kennels and daycares. I am confident your pet will be very happy in my care. I have taken care of dogs who need extra medical attention, older dogs, puppies, etc. I am more than happy to meet your expectations and accommodate your needs for your furry friend. I am offering day long care for your pet. We can do walks, hikes, swimming, even a play day at the park. Single walks, hikes, swimming, trips to the park. Drop ins to your home for up to 2 hours at a time. Available late night and early morning. I take pride in loving your pet like my own and I hope we can work together :) I have a lot of available time to help your pets in need! My schedule is very flexible. I am currently transitioning from being a stay at home mom. I’m very trustworthy and make sure your pet is safe at all times! Whether off leash walks are allowed or on leash at all times. I will make sure your pet is always treated as if it were my own.
About: I have care and experience with dog`s for more than 20 years. From puppies to adult and elderly. From Chihuahuas to Great Danes. Training Puppies from indoors to out doors potty training and pee pads is a + ... I recommend my own pee pads for training purposes! I own only 1 dog presently. A Chihuahua, Blue Tic Hound breed. Weighing in at 5.8lbs. She is now 19 years young. Gets along great with cats & other dogs. I am retired, so no worries about time, just scheduling. First come first served, so to speak. I will not turn down a client or pet/animal owner unless the animal is a potential threat to my well being and health. I have experience administering medications to needed pets/animals and care of feeding, washing (shower/bath care) and walks. Play time is essential, especially for young to middle aged pets because of the energy they posses. There is nothing more happier than a tired dog to sleep happy dreams from exertive play time or a cat playing laser tag and cat and mouse games. : )
“Dana took care of our young puppy while we were away on vacation. She is very responsible, compassionate & dedicated to her caring for dogs. You can tell she really loves what she does! She kept us updated with information and pictures daily, including videos. It was a pleasure to see our puppy healthy, happy & having fun with Dana. We definitely look forward to booking with Dana again!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Stockbridge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 321 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stockbridge. 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 Stockbridge 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 Stockbridge 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 Stockbridge 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.

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.
