“Geoff was great and I’m so glad he was able to house sit my husky, Jacob, when I had to travel to a conference at the last minute. He constantly sent updates with pics and videos and I could tell my pup was a very happy boy to have a friend to play with while I was gone for three day. I highly recommend Geoffrey and would use his services again.”
“We've hired Ken for house sitting our cat. He was very responsive and communicated everything with us. Since we were out of the country during this horrific heat wave, he was kind enough to water our yards for us. Ken sent us pictures and videos of our pet daily. I highly recommend Ken's services.”
About: Ive taken care of all sorts of animals since 15 and have given medical injections to pets; going to a vet tech class in spring! This is my full time job right now which gives me plenty of time to care for your Furbabies! I try to give myself days during the week for a break so I can take care of other things as well! I keep my eyes on them at all times making sure they are okay, giving them all the care and love and safety! I will always keep the owner updated on everything with photos and videos and text updates on how your Furbabies are doing!
“"We can't express how grateful we have found Jason as our dog sitter. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is not only competent and trustworthy but also genuinely passionate about dogs, I wholeheartedly recommend Jason. He provided us with peace of mind during our time away and became a true friend to our furry companions. We'll definitely be reaching out to him for all our future dog-sitting needs!"”
“Bria was wonderful with our two girls overnight. She kept us informed with pictures and videos and went above and beyond by cleaning up the house a bit. She followed instructions well. This was our first time using Rover and Brid made everything so easy. Thank you!”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I took care of my own and others when needed. I am good with all care for dogs or cats I work for petco part time so I can able to sit during the week. I go to Concordia university so I have flexibility in my class schedule. I am able to keep your dogs company while you are gone. I will keep an eye out of them while they are outside and give them walks myself if needed
“Working with Jessica was a dream! She came over to our house a few days prior to meet the dogs. They loved her. As I shared instructions, she digested all the info in one go and executed on them so well. We didn’t have to repeat ourselves at all — impressive! While we were away, she gave us regular sweet updates and was very independent. When the dogs did unruly things (like my pyrenees pulling her into a nearby body of water for an unexpected swim), she stayed upbeat and had the situation totally handled before contacting us. We felt in very good hands. When we came back, our house looked great! Towels cleaned, bed stripped, floor swept, and even some veggies shared from her garden 🤗 We hope to book Jessica again for our next trip.”
“Leanne was amazing! We came home and our pups were so happy and the house looked fanstastic. Probably better than we left it. She even went to Costco to get more dog food because of my poor planning. We will definitely be using Leanne again!”
“Kristy was amazing! She housesat for us and took care of our three fur babies. She was communicative, kind, and made sure to update us with any changes the pups had during our absent. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Tessa was wonderful during her stay of four nights with our little morkie Coco they bonded she took her for walks everyday and played with her. She also has dog training experience and worked on some training with her as well. We felt that she communicated with us throughout our trip and sent us pictures and videos to relax our minds that Coco was in good hands! We would recommend Tessa to anyone and will definitely be calling on her for future trips!”
“Brittney house sat for me and my 2 pups, she is great! I highly recommend her, she left my house super clean and sent lots of picture and updates. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Anastasia did a wonderful job taking care of both of our pups and our home! She sent plenty of updates, photos, and had overall great communication. She left our home clean and tidy and was very respectful of everything. I would definitely recommend Anastasia for anyone needing a trustworthy pet sitter.”
About: I’ve done a lot of dog sitting in Boston and for friends and family over the years, and I genuinely love it. I didn't have pets of my own as a kid, but always loved being around dogs. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs — big, small, high-energy, or total couch potatoes. I stick to their usual routines, make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and just try to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible while their owners are away. Lots of updates, lots of love, and happy pups are always the goal. Expect many photos and selfies. I work in a nursing home, and love bring pets along with me to visit the residents if approved by the owner! I work a typical Monday-Friday 8-5pm and have about an hour commute. I am available for evenings or early morning walks, as well as weekend/overnight boarding or house sitting. I live in an apartment in Charlestown with a fenced in back yard. Pets are allowed. I live with two family members with a lot of pet experience who also support boarding pets. I am happy to stay in someone's home if needed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Volente
Candace was amazing and so sweet with our little Mocha! We could tell she knew what she was doing and that she had lots of experience, and most importantly, that she had lots of love for pups! She sent us lots of video updates throughout the day. She was also flexible and understanding when we ended up coming home later than expected. We will definitely request Candace again to care for Mocha and would highly recommend her to anyone else!
She did a phenomenal job and was a total pleasure to work with. Her quick responsiveness made scheduling a breeze, and her constant communication kept me at ease the entire time. I will absolutely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!
Tabbatha watched our two dogs for two weeks in our home and she was truly amazing! It was clear that she really cared about our dogs and she went above and beyond for them, including sending lots of pictures of how they were doing! She was also flexible enough to stay an extra night when we had unexpected travel issues. Overall, we highly recommend Tabbatha!

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 Volente 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 Volente 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 Volente 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.
