About: I’ve shared my home with dogs and cats my entire life, rescuing pets of all ages from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Over the years, I’ve learned that every animal has a unique story, and I make it a priority to train every pet I bring into my home. This hands-on experience has taught me a massive amount about patience, adaptability, and animal behavior. More than anything, it has given me a deep sense of compassion and a real knack for connecting with animals. I love bringing that structure and care to their lives, and I'm excited to bring that same dedication to this role. I offer in-home pet care tailored to your pet's exact schedule. I work full-time at a school, I am available for quick drop-ins on weekday evenings. I have open availability on weekends to give your pet all the time and attention they need. I offer personalized in-home pet sitting and drop-in check-ins tailored to your pet's unique needs. Your pet's comfort is my top priority, which is why I strictly follow their established feeding and exercise to maintain their normal routine while you are away.

“Needed a car sitter in a pinch and Boning came to save the day. This is the 4th time she's taken care of the cats and she does a great job every time. The house is clean and in order, cats are not anxious, and she leaves us a detailed review. Thank you Boning!”

About: Hi! I'm a single mom who has had pets since I could walk.. I have owned dogs, cats, lizards, birds, fish, and even tarantulas! I My 11 year old daughter is the BEST helper and a fellow animal lover. We have one adult cat, Queenie Zucchini. She is a sweetheart and has now had over 20 new cat friends come to stay with us so far. She has never been aggressive with any of our guest cats. She has even gotten quite attached to some of them! We have a large apartment and would be happy to adhere to any needs you and your pet have.. Just let me know how I can help! Regarding the timing of your booking. I do work Mon-Fri, but I can be available if I have enough notice. I am available all weekend, 24/7 with short notice even. I do ask that if you book - please do not book any drop-off or pickup earlier than 1pm on weekdays or before 9:00 am on weekends. No drop-off or pickups after 8:00 pm. We are a very "chill" household. With just me, my daughter, and our cat Queenie. She gets dry food in the a.m. and p.m., and 1/2 a can of wet food for dinner. I clean and refill water 2x each day, and do daily litter scoops. As far as the question "what should I bring?".... Please bring your pet's preferred food and litter. I do have an extra litter box that can be prepared for your pet. I also advise you to send a blanket or even a piece of your clothing - something from home with a familiar smell, so your pet has a comfort item in their new temporary home.

About: I’ve walked/sat for dogs since I was a kid. I’ve grown up with a dog and now have my own at the age of 25 I am in Norwood living with my partner and looking for work, I decided to put a profile together and take care of pets to earn some money in the mean time. They’re allowed all the free play space in the open living area. Lots of space to run around. We’re close to a field for fetch and walks and I am more than happy to drive to a fenced in dog park. I have a vehicle and can drive to your home as well to hang out in the pets home if need be. I trained my dog by myself she is very responsible. She is energetic but kind and cuddly. She knows how to sit, come, stay, play dead, sit pretty, give paw, and loves fetch

“Elizabeth took care of our kitty for a week. She was absolutely amazing and we’re so happy with our decision to book her. This was the first time we left him with someone that wasn’t family and we felt so assured that he was being taken care of. She sent us updates and amazing photos and stayed longer than necessary each visit. I know our baby was in good hands and I would absolutely book with her again! You can really tell she loves animals!”

“I've used Erin's drop-in pet sitting services twice and will continue to do so when traveling. I have two cats that eat multiple prepared meals a day with various supplements (I'm a crazy cat lady, guilty) and Erin is incredibly accommodating and had no problem following my preferred schedule. I also love that Erin is a knowledgeable vet tech, which really puts my mind at ease (and it was also helpful when one of my cats needed to be given medicine x2 daily). She responds quickly and keeps me in the loop at all times. What more could you want? I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 13 years old. I gained experience through having my own pets at home as well as providing loving care for other families. I have a 14 year old Pomeranian Maltese Mix and a 4 year old cat. I can help with things like pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, playtime, giving plenty of love and attention, etc. I am working part-time, but during my free time I’d love to help care for pets because I’ve always had a love for animals and can give them the care they need to be happy and healthy! When I care for my own dog at home, I enjoy taking him for walks in areas away from too many cars like neighborhoods or dog parks (with his leash on) so that he has plenty of space to roam around and can meet other friendly dogs!

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for over 14 years. I am passionate about animals and want to provide the best love and care for your furry friend. I love taking your dog on walks, playing with their favorite toys, making sure they receive the proper meals, and am comfortable giving medication when needed. I have worked in the healthcare field for 4 years so I feel comfortable following care plans and specific diets. I have experience dog sitting young and old dogs and have dog sat for weeks in a row. I am available 24/7 by text, call or email. I do not mind going on long walks or spending extra time playing with your dog to give them the proper exercise needed to keep them happy! I am more than happy to meet your dog prior to starting to put your mind at ease. I am currently an occupational therapist at a local elementary school. Since I work at a school I often have more flexibility around school breaks. Afternoons/evenings are my most open times. I have a small dog park in my complex and live close to a few parks for longer walks. Having owned a dog for 15 years I am confident in how to care for a dog in the home.

I’m off on saturdays, sundays, and federal holidays. On weekdays, I'm home around 5:45 - 6 PM so I'll be available for cat parents to drop-off/pick up their kids. Please keep in mind that the only time I will cancel your booking is when I'm sick or have emergencies that I cannot avoid Boarding: Your cat will have his/her own litter box. My home is tidy and is on the ground floor so your cat will get to see all types of animals outside. Drop-In: Feeding, scooping litter, playtime, changing water, clean up hairballs if needed.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and now work as an Assistant Dog Trainer, where I continue to build my experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Through my work, I’ve gained hands-on experience with pet sitting, boarding, and providing individualized care to help pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, exercise, or extra patience, I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility in my schedule. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, and depending on home situations I can accommodate in home boardings. I provide dog walks, drop-in visits, and feeding services tailored to your pet’s routine and needs. During visits, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals, and care according to your instructions. Depending on your pet’s needs and home situation, I will also be available for boarding or extended care. However, I do not offer overnight house sitting and will not stay in a client’s home overnight. My goal is to provide reliable, professional care that keeps your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Stoughton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Stoughton on Rover is $24 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $32 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 10,553 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Stoughton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Stoughton 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!

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 .

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.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Stoughton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Stoughton. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
