“Patti and her family took such great care of Luka while we were away. She got so much love and Luka was sad to leave when we came to pick her up. She will definitely miss the amazing yard! I know she will be very excited to go back when our family goes away again. Thank you Patti for loving our sweet girl and taking such good care of her.”
“Sandra took great care of my Raven. She sent pictures and had great communication. Raven had a great time in her home. I love that she takes just one dog at a time and has a great yard. She treated Raven as her own. Would definitely book again!”
About: I have 30 years experience with puppies through seniors - healthy through special needs. Training for puppies on leash walks through walking seniors in a stroller. My dogs have ranged from disabled chihuahuas, big German shepherds, and lively beagle mixes. I excel at bonding and building trust with pets and look to have a unique connection with each one. For doggy daycare and boarding: Right now, I dont own any dogs. Your dogs would be the only dogs in my home. When there are dogs in my home, my cats are safely locked away in the basement with their food, toys, water, and playhouses. There will be no interaction. I am currently working part time (remotely) and fully available to care for your pets, play with them, give them all the attention, care, and love they deserve! Morning, afternoon, evening, late night care is well within my timeframe. Caring for your dog: I will only walk on leash - no unleashed care unless within a fully fenced backyard. If you are training your dog, I will be able to continue with training. I am able to administer medication if needed. If your dog has any allergies or requires special food, please be sure to let me know. Happy to perform brushing or baths if needed. Pets, hugs, playtime, or lounging and relaxing - whatever their preference and makes them feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. As for caring for your cats, I request a full schedule of their feeding times, and recommendations as to what they enjoy playing with. If they like to be brushed, please note. If they are skittish or love attention from people, please let me know so I can provide them with a level of care that will allow them to feel safe.

“My dog was very well take care by Aishea. He was happy staying there. She was very responsive and sent me daily check ins. I will definitely recommend her.”
About: My family has always had dogs, and I feel that they enhance the family unit. No discrimination against certain breeds. German Shepherd, Rottweiler, American Staffordshire, Boxer, makes no difference to me. I adore all the four-legged kids! I have my own four-legged kid, and truly appreciate the help I’ve received through Rover.com, while being at work or out of town. It’s such a relief to know that the he is taken care of, so I can continue working to provide for him. Updating you on the visit with pictures and/or videos, so you can see your four-legged kid(s) have been cared for, would be my pleasure. Dogs are family, and I would gladly treat yours as part of my pack. I would be happy to perform drop-in visits or walk your dog(s) during the day, or into the night hours, as my schedule allows. Currently, I am unavailable for midday drop-ins and walks Mondays through Thursdays. Updating you on the visit with pictures and/or videos, so you can see your four-legged kid(s) have been cared for, would be my pleasure. I happily treat your fur kids as lovingly as my own. Always checking that food and water bowls filled as needed. Utilizing the crate should they need it upon my leaving.
“Caitlin and her family took incredible care of our dog! She has stayed with them in the past and loved the accommodations AND the TLC! Caitlin provided a few photos while we were away, which only further assured us our pet was being well taken care of! Thanks again!”
“Kim was great with Cookie. She made her feel right at home. Cookie often doesn't eat for a little while after I'm away from her. Kim made Cookie felt so safe, she ate not long after I left! That's a first for Cookie!”
“My dog had a wonderful day with Manolita!! She’s so kind and caring and made us both feel comfortable! When I picked him up from his stay he was very comfortable and calm, which was a great sign! She also sent pictures and updates throughout the day, which I loved! I highly recommend her!”
“Minnie had a great stay with Glorymar, and her dog Buddy was also a great host, helping my dog who can be shy around people feel right at home for the weekend. My dog can be bossy with other dogs and Buddy let Minnie be the leader of the pack. Glorymar’s neighborhood is great for dog walks. I would definitely rebook next time I’m in Springfield.”
“Kat was so flexible and accommodating for a last minute new booking. super communicative and lovely to work with. She has a lot of experience with dogs with mobility concerns.I know my dog had a great time hanging out with her — I would truly recommend her dog sitting services to anyone who needs it.”
About: Feeding, entertaining, and walking pets. Friends and family have trusted me in caring for their pets like my own when needed. I have had pets of all kinds growing up and have a passion for caring for dogs, cats and small animals such as guinea pigs. I currently work full remote and have flexibility to add in drop ins during the work day. I also have availability during weekends if you’re taking a trip, for multiple drop ins a day as needed. I currently have two cats who are my best friends. I have grown up around dogs and have dog sat for many years for friends and family. Walking and pop ins are the best part of my day.
“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.”
“Hannah was great! Walter had the best time playing with Wolf and even got to go on a trip to play with other dogs! The big fences in back yard was amazing and I loved getting pics of him throughout.”
“Elliott took excellent care of my golden retriever. He responded promptly to all communications, sent me regular updates and photos, and even let her sleep on his bed! He was kind and understanding when I had to shorten my dogs’ stay due to a family emergency.”
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.
