“Maegan was great with my two cats while we were away for a few days! She was very communicative throughout the visits. She provided very detailed updates and lots of photos of the two. Maegan was very gentle with the cats and took such good care of them.”
About: Hey, I'm 30 and my family currently owns two large dogs. We moved to Massachusetts about a five years ago. We have two standard poodles, Ivy who’s 7 and about 50lbs and I own Felix who’s about 3 and over 50lbs. I also have a horse, and our first dog was raised by the cats we had before got dogs. Thanks to growing up with animals, then working with horses as an apprentice in Colorado for two years I appreciate the need that dogs have to get outside and get some energy out, or at least some attention so they don't decide to entertain themselves in a different way other ways. I’ve also taken care of parrots and parakeets, rats, guinea pigs, and bearded dragons. I housesat for neighbours and friends often, and occasionally their pets would be there too. I also babysat growing up and I'm still in touch with the families, watching their kids (& pets) grow up. I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! As a pet owner, I completely understand the need to make sure your pet isn’t bored. I like to try to leave my clients home cleaner than when I arrived, my mother taught me that when I started babysitting and it stuck. Would you like me to water your plants?
“This was the third time we’ve had Josephine take care of our kitties in the past year and I have nothing but positive things to say. She’s super attentive, writes detailed notes and goes above and beyond to help us out with little tasks around the house while we’re gone like bringing in packages and other odds and ends. She’s always super patient when the cats are feeling anxious and shy and I would not hesitate to use her again in the future. She’s a wonderful pet sitter!”
“Jing is awesome with our three dogs! I was really reluctant to let a stranger come into our house but she is always so respectful and trustworthy with our four legged friends! They get excited when she comes through the door 😂 definitely hire her!”
“Chantay was professional, prompt and super responsive. She went above and beyond to help make sure our cat received his medications. Our cat is a super hider but she always was able to give him care. Would 100% recommend her to any pet owner!”
“Kate was very punctual, responsible and professional. She took good care of my cat Luna while I was away. I received a detailed update from her and lots of photos. I highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”
“⸻ I’ve been trusting Abhay with my dog for the past four years, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly reliable and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is his excellent communication. After each session, he provides thoughtful updates on how things went, which shows how attentive and engaged he is. On the rare occasion when there’s any uncertainty, he doesn’t hesitate to reach out for clarification, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that he takes both his work and my dog’s well-being seriously. It’s a huge comfort knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands.”
About: I LOVE animals, dogs, cats, birds, you name it, any type of pet and am naturally extremely caring for them, regardless if they are my pets or not. I'm currently home from graduating college and was looking for something i would enjoy doing, and i LOVE animals, and i got introduced into Rover. I've had a dog my whole life and trained them, and would love to help other's people and their pets! I have a dog, that I feed, walk and play with everyday. I walk him for at least 15 minutes, but he likes being out and playing catch, or even play inside.
About: Hi! I’m a college student and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, small animals, and farm animals. I’ve had my Chiweenie for the past 8 years and trained her myself from puppyhood, including obedience and reliable recall. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, anxious or reactive dogs, giving medication, and caring for multiple pets at once. One of my biggest strengths is reading dog body language and adjusting my approach to each dog’s individual needs. I can be calm and gentle with nervous dogs while also providing structure and boundaries when needed. I offer walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, boarding, and daycare. For boarding, visiting dogs can be kept completely separate from my own dog for everyone’s comfort and safety. I also have years of customer service experience, so you can count on clear communication, regular updates, and lots of photos. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pet and provide them with safe, reliable care. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I am able to dedicate time each day to walks, feeding, enrichment, playtime, and companionship. I live an active lifestyle and regularly go on long walks, hikes, and runs, so I am comfortable keeping up with high-energy dogs that need extra exercise. I work to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. My goal is to make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, activity, and individualized care. Safety is my top priority when caring for any pet. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so I can provide care that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I have experience with puppies, anxious dogs, and reactive dogs, and I pay close attention to body language to help prevent stressful situations before they happen. In my home, visiting dogs can be kept completely separate from my own dog if needed. Outdoor time is always supervised, and I use secure leashes and long lines when appropriate. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have always had dogs and cats throughout my life. As an adult, I’ve had three dogs, myself five cats and many other poor legged friends. I enjoy being around animals very much they bring me such joy. Everyone calls me the pet whisperer because every animal I meet just loves me and I love them. I’m always helping my friends and neighbors when they need there animals taken care of while they are away. I have just currently quit my job of 21 years and wanted to do something that would make me happy on a daily basis so I decided to start taking care of animals when people need it. I get to play with many different types of furry friends along with keeping active and making my own schedule. Depending on what’s needed, I would treat all the animals like I would treat my own. Keeping them safe and loved and getting their exercise needs in.
About: Hi, I’m Sammie! I’ve had dogs for almost my whole life and am very comfortable caring for them. I’ve also pet sat and walked dogs for many neighbors over the years. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I always make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for! I’m a graduate student in my final semester and currently living at home. This upcoming semester is fully remote, which gives me a wide range of availability and flexibility throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding routines, walking preferences, and any safety guidelines. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I respect clients’ homes, keep spaces clean, and provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away!
“I appreciate Barry getting my pups out on short notice while I couldn’t be home with them! I feel bad leaving them for long days, but have comfort knowing they get some time outside along with care and attention while I’m away!”

“Debbie is the best dog sitter on Rover! Our pup loves her visits, whether it’s a walk, doggy day care or overnight. She goes above and beyond to make sure he gets exercise, playtime and lots of pets. I highly recommend her!”
About: As a vet tech student in my final year, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs in both school labs and kennel settings. I’m comfortable with nail trims, baths, medical grooming, medication administration, and caring for pets with ongoing medical needs. I’m trained in basic first aid and pay close attention to animal behavior, so I can understand how pets are feeling and respond in a calm, safe way. Keeping pets comfortable and safe is always my top priority. I have a flexible work schedule where I choose my shifts, which allows me to be fairly adaptable for pet care bookings. Starting in the fall I will only have class on Mondays, which means I will be free to care for your pet the rest of the week. I enjoy active dog walks in most weather (within safe limits) and tailor each walk to the dog’s needs. I have a car for reliable travel and plan to use a secure seatbelt attachment for safety. Drop-ins include feeding, water, clean-up, medication administration, nail trims, and making sure pets are comfortable and cared for.
About: Hello pet parents! I'm a 24/7 cat mom to a 3 years old cat child. I grew up having a Shiba Inu as a family dog and she passed away due to old age.

I’m off on saturdays, sundays, and federal holidays. On weekdays, I get home around 5:45 - 6 PM so I'll be available for cat parents to drop-off/pick up their kids. **NO PET ABANDONMENT** - If you're unable to care for your pet and would like to surrender, please contact your local animal shelter or animal control. 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: 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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stoughton
Jill is amazing! She took wonderful care of our cat, Milo, giving him his medication and feeding him while we were away. She had also walked our dog, Sunny, on New Year’s Eve, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. She is kind, patient, responsible, and an excellent communicator. She kept us updated with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We felt completely comfortable trusting her with our pets and will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend!
Josephine is great with my 2 cats with very different personalities. Both the social cat and the anxious cat like her. You can tell she really loves animals. She even asked me if she could stay a few extra minutes because my cat was on her lap! And she sends TONS of amazing photos. She is my go-to pet sitter. Highly recommend.
Kate did an amazing job of taking care of our 2 cats. She was easy to communicate with and sent us pictures and updates each day which was very reassuring. My cat George definitely has a crush on her 😊. We will absolutely use her again. We feel very fortunate to have found her. Now we can relax when we are away knowing that our cats are in very capable and caring hands.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Stoughton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .

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.
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.
