“Josie loves dogs and took great care of our Pip. The family made Pip feel good about spending the weekend with them and seemed to love her, even forgiving her for getting food off the counter. 😬 we feel fortunate to have found them.”
“As always, Sandra and her husband John are so attentive, caring and loving towards Lulu, they treat her as their own. She truly cares about her and provides immaculate care. Lulu requires medication as well as frequent meals and Sandra is always on top of her care!”
“Dorjee was wonderful with Meryl. I loved that she answered messages quickly and sent photos of Meryl on walks. Despite the great service and I thought good relationship, I was shocked that Dorjee suddenly told me she was refusing to communicate with me or do business anymore because of my questions. This sudden severence is quite upsetting to me. I so much wish she would have told me she had issues with my questions rather than suddenly ending all communication with no warning.”
About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life growing up. I know how to care for them and love them correctly. I love being around pets. I currently work part time so I’m not too busy with work. I go to school 4 days a week but have plenty of time at night and sometimes during the day. I will always make sure to watch your pets. I have a yard for them to play in and have time to walk them. I have other teenage girls in my house who love pets just as much as I do.
“Cannot thank them enough. It was my first time using Rover and on a short notice request- no problem. I got pictures of Alfie playing and cuddling throughout his stay which set me at ease. He also came back smelling nicer and was freshly brushed, he was so happy! I 100% recommend Heather and Norman”
“Forough and Amir took wonderful and thoughtful care of our dog. They were also quick to respond to any questions and we appreciated their flexibility with timing.”
“Morgan was super helpful when I needed a sitter on my road trip! She was so good with Molly and helped out extra since Molly wasn’t feeling the best on my trip and eating irregularly”
“We appreciated Amira so much for taking care of our two rabble-rousers. She provided a comforting presence and I could see they felt completely at home, which isn’t an easy task. In addition, we reached out midway through their stay and she responded immediately- this gave us peace of mind as well. Thank you!”
“I am grateful to have found Jessiana to care for my dog. She is dependable, kind, courteous and genuinely cared for my Samson, treating him as if he were her own. I received regular updates and picture, which provided me with peace of mind during my time away. I will certainly use her services again!”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
About: I’m an active, outdoorsy person who loves getting outside and enjoying some fresh air with a dog by my side. I especially enjoy walks, exploring new trails, and giving dogs plenty of time to play and get their energy out. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow their normal routines for meals, walks, playtime, and downtime. I want every dog in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their people are away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages along the way! I work remotely 5 days a week and have plenty of time to hang with your pup! Working from home gives me the flexibility to let your dog out for potty breaks as frequently as needed. I live close to a network of trails that your dog will love! My friendly Bernedoodle is always looking for friends and will keep us company!
“Ali was one of the best dog sitters we’ve had! We needed last-minute boarding after realizing our Airbnb didn’t allow pets at around 8pm at night. Despite the short notice, Ali responded right away and was incredibly flexible and accommodating. we felt soooo lucky to find Ali and he was genuinely kind and caring with our dog! 🐶 We would absolutely choose Ali again in future, and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy caring, and kind sitter!”
“Great experience having Taiyo stay with Sarah. Very prompt communication, extremely friendly and clearly evident from talking to her that she treats guests pups with as much care and attention as she does her own. Her easygoing approach gave me incredible piece of mind that is invaluable when leaving your fur babies behind on vacation. Will absolutely be booking again and would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Christian is great! He is patient, chill, and very good with dogs! I loved that our dog wanted to go back inside with him when we had to leave; that is a great sign!”
“Adam was fantastic! Quick and clear communication from the initial message all the way to pick up. Adam was very friendly and has an immaculate house, so I felt very comfortable leaving my dog for the long weekend. His dog Rocky was friendly as well and was a great playmate for my dog Max. I will definitely be booking with Adam again!”
“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning, she was very responsive to all of our questions about the booking. Our dog tends to be shy and can sometimes be aggressive with other dogs, but Sarah made it work, and our dog got along with hers right away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dog was very happy during her stay! We will definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to Raven (7 female dog), and Miles (8 female cat) I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets, and I would love to provide them with the same love and attention I give my own! I work from home, so I'm able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day and provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I also have a fenced yard where dogs can safely get fresh air and exercise. My home is used to being around both animals and kids. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet needs company, playtime, walks, or just a comfortable and caring place to stay, I will treat them like part of the family!
“Saktah did a great job taking care of my elderly and rather unfriendly kitty, Koshka, for two weeks while I was vacationing. She was very professional, organized, and caring, kept me updated on how my kitty was adjusting, and showed genuine affection and concern for her. She's driven to get things right and wants your pet to be as comfortable as they can be while you're gone. So if you (like me) have a pet that needs extra love and care, and you'd like to relax during your vacation knowing they're in good hands, go with Saktah. She's got you covered.”
“Karen and family were awesome with Alibi, our 15 months old Australian Shepherd. Lots of personal attention, and a great large fenced yard for the dogs to chase each other around. Karen’s whole family welcomed Alibi into their home and she really connected with their dog Lily. All in all, the stay was great and we will certainly be using Karen’s services again!”
“Andrea took great care of our puppy while we were away for a week. She sent lots of pictures while we were away and kept up with our high energy guy!! Thanks for treating him like one of your own and taking the stress and worry out of our vacation!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Hatfield
I had such a wonderful experience with Karen! After our initial meet and greet, I was able to easily book our stay online. In between the meet and greet and my dog’s stay, some of his needs changed due to a recent separation anxiety diagnosis. Karen was incredibly understanding, accommodating, and reassuring. She was able to administer his medication and prepare his homemade food with ease, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her home and backyard are absolutely lovely and provide the perfect environment for a dog. My dog loved having the space to play, and he got along wonderfully with Karen’s dog. Karen communicated throughout his stay with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated. Pick-up and drop-off were also a breeze, and she handled everything so easily. My dog seemed to acclimate very quickly to her home, her family, and her dog, which meant so much to me. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. She was able to give him individualized attention. I truly feel like she is a rare find and genuinely cares about the pets in her care. I’m so grateful we found her!
Gabi was a phenomenal host to our 11 year-old dog. She took her for multiple daily walks, sent photos, and kept us informed of our pet’s well-being. Gabi was very thorough throughout the entire process, from taking time to meet our dog ahead of the three-day stay, to sending communications us throughout the weekend. We were lucky to find Gabi!
We are extremely happy with the care and attention Jodi gave our 11-year old terrier mix, Dasher. Jodi offered us a meet and greet before our vacation dates that put us at ease right away. Dasher checked out her home with his nose while reviewed his daily routines, medicines and likes/dislikes. Jodi asked great questions that showed us that she truly loves dogs and gets their individual personality quirks. Dasher took to her quickly and enjoyed ear rubs during our meeting. We received at least one message and photo of Dasher from Jodi each day he was in her care. He clearly looked happy and comfortable, and got lap time with Jodi as well as walks and supervised yard time. We're already booked to have Jodi care for Dasher again soon. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Hatfield home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your West Hatfield.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your West Hatfield sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
