Wonderful person to watch my cat! Followed all of my instructions and my cat, who is very shy, actually came out and started to interact with her by the end of the visit.

William was great with my two shy cats while I was gone for the week. He was responsive and even got one of my cats to come out for snuggles. I’ll certainly be booking with him in the future.

About: Hi, I'm Sumeena! I provide dependable pet care and house sitting throughout the South Shore area, helping pets stay comfortable in their own home while their owners are away. I currently have extended availability this summer and am available for vacation stays, longer house sitting requests, and last-minute travel needs whenever possible. I currently have extended summer availability, making me a great option for vacations, longer trips, and house sitting stays. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable caring for both your pets and your home when you can't be there. I'm an Education Support Professional in a special education classroom, where patience, consistency, communication, and attention to detail are essential every day. I bring those same qualities to pet care by following routines carefully, noticing small changes, and providing calm, dependable support. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small animals for friends and family over many years. Growing up in a rural area also gave me experience around animals, including helping neighbors care for farm animals. When house sitting, I provide attentive care while respecting your home and keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. Care may include feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, litter box care, following detailed instructions, medication administration when needed, and regular photo and message updates. My goal is to provide trustworthy, compassionate care so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets and home are in good hands. I currently have availability for house sitting and vacation care from June 27–July 10, and again beginning August 11th through early September. During these periods, I’m able to dedicate my time and attention to providing consistent care, maintaining your pet’s routine, and giving regular updates while you’re away. When I’m available, I enjoy providing dependable companionship, walks, feeding, and home care while helping pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and adjust care to meet each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while also treating their home with respect. I understand that inviting someone into your home is a big responsibility, and I take that trust seriously. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and any special needs your pets may have. I pay close attention to behavior and changes in your pet’s comfort level so I can provide the best care possible. I will maintain a clean and secure environment, respect your space and belongings, and provide regular photo and message updates so you feel connected while you’re away. My goal is for you to return home knowing your pets were cared for and your home was respected. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, including shy pets who need patience and a calm approach. I focus on creating a safe, predictable, and positive experience for every pet I care for.

About: I have experience caring for both energetic dogs who need structure and movement, as well as more sensitive pets who benefit from patience, gentle routines, and clear communication. I’m organized, responsive, and great at managing schedules—skills I use every day in my professional work and bring directly into pet care. I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure owners feel fully informed while they’re away. I’m a reliable and attentive weekend pet sitter based in Boston, and I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and caring environment for every animal I look after. I work a full-time remote job during the week, but on weekends I’m fully dedicated to pet care—whether that means long walks, dedicated playtime, or simply keeping your pet company and relaxed at home. As someone who values consistency and trust, I make sure every pet gets thoughtful, individualized attention. Whether your pet needs slow, steady walks, a playful activities, or lots of affection, I’m here to help your weekend feel stress-free. If you’re looking for a sitter who is responsible, communicative, and truly loves spending her weekends with animals, I’d love to support you and your pet!

About: I've been taking care of my orange cat (Pete) and walking my neighbours dogs since I was 13, and I always love meeting and learning about people's pets! I've found that if you love and respect animals, they will often respect and love you back. I can't wait to meet your best friend! I usually get up pretty early, and have a good amount of time on my hands at the moment. I will always make your pet my number one priority while under my care. I'm always looking to build a strong relationship of safety and trust with both pets and pet parents. Always let me know what I can do to give you the most peace of mind during any stay.

About: Hello! Thank you for clicking on my page today. My name is Valerie and I would love to look after your furry family member. For the last 16 years I've had a dog in my family. Taking care of her showed me how much I love animals and I'd love to extend this love to lots of different animals. I consider myself to be professional, outgoing, and flexible. I pride myself on providing quality service for my clients and their furry friends and I feel devoted to connecting with people just as much as their pets. Dog safety is my number one focus at all times. Keeping your dog happy, healthy, and safe is considered a bare minimum requirement for me. I also feel it's important to acknowledge that every dog, just like every person, is different and that treating each new dog with it's own individual form of respect and care is very important. No two dogs are the same and I look forward to rising to the occasion to care for your dog's individual needs. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! I'm currently working on Rover being my full-time gig so I have more than enough time for you and your furry family member. Please reach out and I will make any accommodations necessary. Like every person, animals share unique personalities, experiences, and histories. I start by listening and taking in all the information from you the owner. Once I understand, to a T, what you require I then turn my attention to our furry friend. I do my best to be intuitive and listen to their body language and mannerisms to give them the right care they need. Is your dog giving me a whale eye or a play sneeze? Does you cat have scared airplane ears or a nice perky and curious tail? All of these pieces of body language ensure that your furry friend and I can get along swimmingly.

About: I've taken care of so many animals throughout my life. Whether it's a neighbors dog or a family friends hamster, I have always been the first to raise my hand to say I would love to. I'm in nursing school so I have a compassion for anything that has heartbeat and even stuffed animals. I will make sure any animal I take care of or walk or encounter has the best experience. I'm at nursing student, Merrimack College, and being able to take care of any pet would allow me to debrief and see a cute pet. My dog gets walk very frequently because we live in an apartment. I love hiking so he also goes with me. Being outside whether the weather it is.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, responsibility, and attention I bring to everything I do. As a rehabilitation aide and full-time college student, I am used to being dependable, detail-oriented, and attentive to individual needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or relaxing at home, I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. That's why I prioritize communication, provide updates and photos, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is not just to watch your dog, but to make sure they are happy, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Dogs fit naturally into my daily routine. I work per diem as a rehabilitation aide and every other weekend as a café associate at South Shore Health, which gives me a flexible schedule. I am generally more available in the afternoons and evenings, making it easy for me to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and any meals or medications according to their schedule. I also prioritize safety, comfort, and communication by providing regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pet is happy, well cared for, and treated like family while they're away.

About: Hi, I’m a lifelong dog lover and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I’m experienced with all kinds of personalities, from shy and nervous to high energy and playful. I have a one year old Poochon who is sweet, friendly, and very well behaved. I believe in full transparency and clear communication, and I take pride in doing great work. I will always follow your instructions, prioritize safety, and send clear updates with photos. If you are open to it, I would love to bring my friendly Poochon along for social pups. If not, no problem at all. I’m happy to come solo and follow your preference. Thank you for considering me. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pooch and help keep them happy, safe, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m very flexible and available every day of the week. I love the outdoors and staying active, so walks and drop ins are an easy, consistent part of my day. I can accommodate last minute requests, follow your pet’s routine closely, and I always provide reliable care with clear updates each visit. Clean, calm, pet friendly home with a large backyard and plenty of room to play. My friendly 1 year old Poochon is home, so I only accept dogs who are comfortable around other dogs. I closely follow your routine (feeding, potty schedule, and house rules) and send photo updates. I have video cameras in the home for safety, and someone is home 24/7 for supervision and care.

About: I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs and flat faced dogs, frenchies, pugs, bulldogs, etc. I own two French bulldogs myself and administer all types of medication. I am semi-retired from a Corporate career and have recently decided to start my own dog walking business. I am currently trying to build up my clientele to hopefully create a doggie daycare in the near future. I will have a fenced in yard by the end of summer 2025, currently in progress. I have a few separate areas where pups can relax and veg out as well as play inside.

This was my first time going away for a week since having my cat, Remy. I was nervous but chose William based on his reviews and many repeat customers. He did not disappoint! By the end of the week he won over my shy cat. I was comforted by his picture updates. He kept Remy fed, her litter box clean and my house clean! When Remy got sick, he cleaned it up. I also noticed he cleaned up the area where Remy eats (she is a messy eater)! Definitely book with William!! Thanks William!!

Madison from the moment I first spoke with her showed intent interest in making sure to try to get to know and understand my dog as best as she could. She has an innate talent and comfort around animals and was able to get my boy to trust her within minutes of them first meeting. She always took the time to make sure he was cared for and looked after and always went above and beyond to make sure he was always looked after. I will always feel comfortable having her look after my dog and am confident any pet in her care is in good hands.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Weymouth

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Weymouth on Rover is $26.46 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 10,076 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Weymouth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Weymouth 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Weymouth. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
