“Deborah took such wonderful care of my kitty Leo while we were away for 10 days. She stayed in our home ànd sent me text updates with pictures during her stay. It was clear from the pictures of Leo snuggling on her lap that he was very comfortable and she loving with him. Upon our return, Leo was just as affectionate with us as before. Deborah also left our home as clean as when we left. We're planning on having Deborah stay in our home again soon to care for Leo. It was a wonderful experience having her here and we felt Leo was comfortable and happy as well!!”
“Trustworthy and meticulous, Karen spent five days with my two big labs and gave them endless love and attention. Since we have no fence, she had to leash and walk the dogs a lot, and modify for the old limpy dog versus the young bouncy one. She left my house looking beautiful and even did the laundry! I want her back next time I'm going out of town.”
“the true test of how good a sitter is returning to calm, adjusted pups. we have 2 rescues that get very anxious when we leave them. We came home to excited, but happy dogs. we loved having Pascale stay with them. she sent lots of pictures and always responded quickly. we will ask her to watch the boys again.”
About: I will care for your pet like it's my own. I have worked in vet office for my first job, many moons ago but never list the love for animals. And always have had pets growing up and still do to this day. I can come to your house or you can bring them to me or I can pick them up if your running late. Very flexible schedule. Have animal toys treats and crate if needed for your pet. Also have a runner for dogs to go outside. But can and will walk animal if needed or they want to go and look around town. Can supply food if animal isn't picky with bowls as well. So just trust me, I can do this.
“Kayleigh was great with my babies! She constantly communicated with me and kept me updated on how my dogs were doing. She did her best to get them to eat and be as comfortable as they could be. She genuinely seemed to enjoy them which gave me peace of mind and made be feel like they were being well taken care off. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: Before you book. Please make sure your dog is friendly with other dogs- I have two! Please provide proof of vaccines and flea medication! I’ve have dogs and cats my whole life! I absolutely love them and would love to help you out while you go away for the weekend or just for the day. I have two dogs & I know how nice it is to have them go with someone trustworthy and know they are safe, having fun and being loved. I plan to make you and your pet feel at home! My Bernese and Golden are very friendly. I have a large yard that is fenced in. we love to swim, go on walks & the boys confirm we have a very squishy couch. :) We can work anything out! Please be specific when you would need me and we can make it work! I am accommodating, I want what’s best for your fur baby. I know how nerve racking it is to leave yours with someone! I work full time, so if your pet needs 24 hour attention, only book me on the weekends! I have a big yard & lots of toys to keep your fur baby entertained :) We can go on walks, play in the yard or cuddle on the couch.
“Meghan was wonderful and kept my anxiety at bay while we were out of town. She communicated with me regularly with pictures, updates and anything she felt important. She gave my dog Marvin lots of attention and exercise so I know he was a happy not lonely pup while we were away. Thank you!!!”
About: Hello everyone, my name is Daniela, I am currently offering my services to start my own Dog Care business from home. I will be able to be at home with your pet 24/7 while they are under my care. I live with my husband who will also be helping with the Daycare/Boarding clients when he is available. We have plenty of toys and space for your pet to have a fun time while under our roof. We will also go on walks twice daily, and depending on how many clients in our home, we will go to the local beach or walking trails. Need to know if your pet is trained off leash, and if it’s ok to bring them to the beach or hiking trails. We could still go on those outings if needed to be leashed. I love caring for animals and I have great charisma interacting with them. I love cats and dogs and I am willing to share time with them while you are working or on vacation. I am currently trying to care for pets full time in my home, so all of my time and energy is being devoted to caring for your pets, and giving them the best experience away from home possible. I will care for your pet at my home as if it were my own. I also have my own 6 year old female dog to give your pet a friend to play with while they are here. One of the best features of our home for your pet is our large fenced in yard. I am also in the process of giving clients access to our cameras for you to be able to check in on your loved one whenever you want.
“Julia was awesome with Isaac and kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages. I felt very comfortable with her immediately and will absolutely reach out to her again with future bookings! I also want to note how accommodating she was - arriving at 5:30am so I could get to an important meeting. I so appreciate her punctuality and ability to take in Isaac’s care plan so quickly. Isaac is a shy rescue and it takes a special person for him to warm up so quickly. Thank you, Julia!”
“James was wonderful. When I returned home all was perfect. He cared for my plants..fountains...fish..outdoor cats and of course my 4 inside dogs. I don't even think they missed me. He won them as well as me over and Im hard to please. Highly recommend!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Wadhams
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 347 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wadhams. 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 Wadhams 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 Wadhams 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 Wadhams 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.
