“Anna is our dog's favorite human other than us! She is so kind, so accommodating, and such a warm presence. I never worry when I leave my dogs with her, and they can't wait to see her again!”
About: Please read through my profile before reaching out to make sure we sound like the perfect fit. I require a meet and greet for all new clients! Sometimes it’s hard to find time between kids/dogs/life so I recommend reaching out as early as possible. I think it’s very important to make sure everyone is comfortable before booking! Hi! My name is Jenn and I am a stay at home mom with two daughters. I want to share a little about our family and what your pup can expect during a stay in our home! Leaving our beloved pets in the care of someone else can be stressful. I have definitely shed a few tears when leaving my dogs in the care of someone else! I take this into account when caring for someone else’s pet. Your dog will receive a warm and happy welcome into our home as I treat each and every doggy guest exactly how I expected my dogs to be treated. Take comfort in knowing that I will care of your dogs as if they were my own. They will receive as much love and attention as they want or need. I am home most of the day with the exception of a few dogs walks and driving my children to their activities. My husband works remotely and is typically home during the day. Your pup will never be left alone for extended periods of time. We have two daughters aged 11 and 8 who are dog lovers and big helpers! They share a love of animals with their Mama. There are a few important details to read over. I love all dogs but not all dogs are the perfect fit for our home and vice versa. Please read below. 1. Your dog MUST like children. As previously mentioned I have two daughters who are excited to snuggle and love your dog! If your pup isn’t a fan of kids then our home will not be a good fit. 2. Your dog MUST like dogs. We have a resident dog and often have a boarder or two. If your dog doesn’t do well with other dogs then our home will not be a good fit. 3. I require a meet and greet before any stay. I want you to feel at ease when leaving your dog in my care. 4. I only accept potty trained dogs and offer many potty breaks/walks throughout the day. If your dog is a marker then they will not be allowed to roam free in our home and I will need to use a belly band. I take pride in our home and want it to stay clean and comfortable for my family and our doggy guests. Accidents happen but consistent marking is not ok. If use of a belly band/doggie diaper is necessary I will of course let you know. 5. Crate trained dogs only. By this I mean no barking or excessive whining . My husband works from home and is on calls during the day and we have children that need to sleep! If your dog is not crate trained and barks/whines someone will be called to pick you dog up! I have had people lie before which is why I am a stickler! Thanks for understanding! 6. We DO NOT have a fenced in back yard. We take take the dogs on frequent walks and and they get many potty breaks throughout the day! My husband loves hiking and enjoys taking the dogs on his adventures. The dogs play with one another and my girls love engaging the pups in play! You may end up with a picture of your dog dressed in a princess dress or attending a tea party. 7. Please make sure your dog is utd on all shots and flea/tick prevention. If you can send me copies of their vaccination records that is most helpful. 8. Please take note that my holiday rates are higher than my nightly rates. I fill up quickly for holidays as I only take 1-2 dogs over major holidays. 9. I’m flexible with pick up and drop off times and will ask the day before or day of for an estimated time of arrival. I have found it’s easier on the dogs if drop off is earlier in the day. That way they can spend time acclimating to our family. Promptness is appreciated and I cannot wait around for you. 10. Excessive barkers need not apply! Occasionally barking at delivery people is expected but constant barking isn’t acceptable. If you have any questions please feel free to ask! I want your dog to be comfortable in our home. We truly enjoy spending time with all different dogs and they will love being with us! I’m am fortunate to be a SAHM and have all the time in the world to spend with your dog. We typically feed the dogs breakfast and give them their first potty break around 6:30/7:00 AM. We will take a morning/early afternoon walk and then have dinner around 5:30/6:00. The last potty break around 10:00/10:30 then off to bed! Potty breaks and additional walks are offered throughout the day as needed. Your dog will be loved, snuggled, payed with, walked, and tired out at the end of everyday. I will send you videos and pictures and you can call/message whenever you want!
“This review is for a second visit as part of a larger trip. We wanted to take the opportunity to reiterate what a great job Ani did taking care of our two senior cats. They are very lovable but also needy and Ani went out of her way to make sure we knew they were doing great while we were gone. Not to mention she made sure our house stayed put together too!”
“Margaret is amazing! She was punctual, personable, had great communication and treated our dog like her own. She gave thorough updates and great photos! We trust her with our dog and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to come take your dog out. We will absolutely be using her in the future 😊”
“Paige was great and the dogs seemed to really like their “play date” with her. Paige sent a detailed report that made us feel at ease. We definitely hope to have Oaige drop in for another visit soon.”
“This is the 2nd time Boning watched the 3 cats. Fantastic job again! She played with them, shared photos everyday, and house was in good order. It makes vacations easy when you know your loved one are getting the time and attention they need. Thank you, Boning!”
“Came back to a healthy happy kitty. Plenty of photos sent each day. I have a litter genie & use silica litter, & Morgan followed the instructions on how to use both just fine. Mogan has such a loving personality towards animals & it really shows. Highly recommend!”
About: I love all pups and will treat your fur babies as my own 🐾 I have been caring for big dogs since I was a child and have always had a love for them. I also have previous experience working at a doggie daycare, with dogs all breeds, ages, and sizes. I have a somewhat flexible schedule and will be home with your pups to follow their bathroom and feeding schedule and get lots of play time and cuddles while they’re in my care! I wake up around 7 am, feeding and bathroom routine, play time and walks throughout the day. I can also stick to any routine needed. There is currently one dog in my home, so I will only be caring for one additional dog at a time. My apartment complex has grassy areas for bathroom time, and I have plenty of room for your dog to play and rest. Neighborhood walks are also available.
About: My mother does dog rescue and I have helped her care for all kinds of dogs over the past 6 years and while I was growing up. We currently have 5 dogs of our own and they get along with other dogs. We have a large fenced in yard with plenty of area to play. We also have an indoor mini Kennel so we can keep your dogs safe if they don't do well with others. You furbaby will be safe to Rome in the big fenced in yard with our playful dogs or alone if preferred. I have a flexible schedule and can exercise them multiple times throughout the day. Can also administer meds if needed. We also have other dogs in the house who could play with your dog, or if your dog wouldn't want to play, we can keep separate. For walks I am available from 1030am-630pm. TUE.FRI.SAT.and SUN. 330pm.-630pm. MON. WED. and THUR. my daughter would be most likely to join weekdays after 230. And weekends. She will join during the day on weekdays during school breaks. Your dog would sleep in my room and would play with me in our large fenced back yard. I have an 8 yr old daughter who loves dogs and will also love to play with your dog. She knows how to be around all types of dogs as she grew up with countless fosters, any where from having extreme separation anxiety, to very jumpy and playful. She will always be supervised with your furbaby!
“Eliza made sure our two cats were well taken care of and gave them lots of love and attention. We loved knowing they were in good hands while we were out of town. Would definitely use her again!”
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.

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: Happily rejoining the Rover community Fall of 2023 after a two year hiatus and welcoming a baby into our lives! We are committed and loving caretakers of our dogs and will give your dogs the same love and attention. We are located in Medfield, MA. We completely understand the feeling of leaving your dog in the hands of other people so we will do whatever possible to make you (and your dog) comfortable. We have no problem giving periodic updates, taking pictures/videos, and scheduling a FaceTime session to check in on your pup! We both work from home and have plenty of flexibility. We have two pups of our own and we get outside daily to make sure they are getting plenty of play time and exercise. First, and most importantly, we over-communicate with all of our clients unless specifically requested not to. New environments often invoke anxiety in dogs BUT we have plenty of space indoors and outdoors for your pup to run around and be comfortable. We also make sure to follow owner instructions precisely and check in regularly if we notice anything unusual with your pet. We are a part of the Rover community because we love dogs and want to ensure that folks feel comfortable while away from their fur baby.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Walpole
Kimberly took such wonderful care of our Bernese Mountain Dog, Calvin, while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. She truly went above and beyond. Our Farmer’s Dog delivery arrived earlier than expected while we were gone, and she took the time to unpack it, rotate the food, and restock everything for us. That was incredibly thoughtful and made coming home so much easier. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and Calvin absolutely loved spending time with her. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kimberly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter!
Zachary took care of our pup Crumbs during the day while we were at work. He was always on time, communicative, and extremely attentive with Crumbs during their visits. Zachary made sure to play with Crumbs and get him exercise outside which we greatly appreciated! We felt extremely comfortable having Zachary take care of him - he is a very trustworthy sitter and we would reach out to him again anytime.
Kristyne was wonderful! We booked her last minute to walk our 18yo dog and she took great care of him and our cat! Shes obviously a very caring person and our pets truly benefit from that! This is our second time using Kristyne and both experiences were excellent!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Walpole stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 Walpole 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Walpole with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
