About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available on for boarding on weekend, and weekdays after 9am to 7pm for starters and see how it goes… I'd love to help with pet-sitting! But I have three dogs of my own, so I'm unable to stay overnight. However, I'd be happy to do drop-in visits to check on your dogs anytime. I'm available for afternoon visits, or whatever works best for you. Let me know if you'd like me to come by for a visit!

About: I’ve trained and taken care of many pets in the past and I love animals so much I figured it would be a great idea to pet sit for multiple people and pets. I understand that all pets have different personalities, just let me know and I will do whatever is needed to keep them comfortable and happy. I will care for your pet like it’s my own, I consider myself to be good with all types of pets. I’ll run around with them in the yard or if they like being lazy in the house, that’s okay too! I’m able to care for puppies, old, huge, little, sick, or hyper. I can’t wait to meet and care for your pets!! I am currently self employed so my schedule is very flexible! I will have plenty of time to care for your pups as much as you/they need! I have found that pups have less anxiety when they’re in their own home but I am more than willing to provide pet care in my home! Also I know pricing on here can be a little weird, we can discuss whatever is comfortable for you.

About: I have loved and taken care of dogs of all sizes for most of my life. I have adopted many rescues and provided foster care for the country animal shelter. I provide care for all dogs (puppies-to-seniors, small or big, rescues, etc.), bearded drag dragons and I am very passionate about their comfort. I provide daily pictures and videos, and spontaneous video calls welcomed. *DROP INS: I do not visit homes, but I offer $5 an hour (4 hour minimum) for you to drop your pup by for a quick stay. Please reach out for more information! I am newly retired and have plenty of time to care for your doggie babies and bearded dragons. I'm available for boarding every day and can fit any schedule. I have a fenced yard, doggie door and 3 dogs of my own that love having daily or even overnight friends. I prefer not to crate unless that is your desire. Doggies go in and out at their will and do not have any restricted areas in my home.

About: Quiet, peaceful home where dogs stay close, feel safe, and enjoy personalized one-on-one care. 3 walks oer day. 3 potty breaks, clean bowls daily, freas filtered water. With decades of experience, I specialize in gentle handling, consistent routines, enrichment and fun, low stress stays for all breeds, especially for senior dogs and those with special care needs. Your dog will receive calm, confident attention while walking, individual attention, and a balance of playtime, quiet time, and restful naps. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make each stay calm, comfortable, and stress-free. I'm especially well-suited for calm, adult, and senior dogs who thrive in a peaceful home environment with consistent routines. I’m home most days and clear my schedule for each visit, allowing me to provide consistent, personal care in a peaceful environment. Dogs enjoy regular exercise, frequent potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of quiet time to relax in comfortable beds and peaceful spaces. Dogs quickly settle into my daily structure and routine. Holiday availability 🐾❤️ I’m available for boarding throughout Thanksgiving and the Christmas holiday season. I keep my bookings limited so each dog receives plenty of individual attention, comfort, walks, and loving care. I may host up to two compatible dogs from different families at the same time. Any overlapping stays are discussed with each pet parent in advance to make sure everyone is comfortable with the arrangement. 🐾 Your pup can settle in and relax in my clean, cozy, quiet home with a beautiful, tree-lined private backyard and two acres of wooded trails that dogs love to explore. I follow each dog’s routine closely and provide calm supervision, structure, rest, gentle enrichment, and individual care.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, building hands-on experience with pets at every stage—from energetic 6-month-old puppies and kittens to senior companions up to 17 years old. This range has taught me how to adjust my care to meet each pet’s unique needs, whether that means playtime and structure for younger pets or patience, gentleness, and routine for older ones. I’ve worked with a wide variety of breeds, from small Morkies to large German Shepherds, and I’m comfortable handling different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether a pet is highly active, a little shy, or just loves to relax, I take the time to understand their personality and help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is always to provide dependable, attentive care so your pet feels at ease and well-loved while you’re away. I’m currently working full time, but am allotted an hour lunch break allowing me to drop in mid-day if necessary. I also run and am a part of a run club and am open to bringing friendly pups along with me for some social time and exercise! I care for every pet as if it's my own while ensuring to fulfill your wishes as the pet owner. Dog or cat, your pet will feel genuinely loved, cared for, and as comfortable as possible without you being there.

“Grayson is amazing!!! She took on twice-a-day visits for my asthmatic cat and provided her with so much love and attention, in addition to giving her medications/inhaler and other regular cat needs. She sent me photo updates that helped me know Winky was happy and let me enjoy my vacation without worrying. We will definitely be asking Grayson to sit for us again, she’s the best!”

About: I have such a passion for animals and for doing something I love and care about. I am a fur lover who thinks that every animal deserves the best life. I do have a little weakness for giving treats so please let me know any dietary restrictions prior to my arrival. Having animals my entire life I am not hesitant to look or care for other creatures as well, anything from Guinea Pigs to actual pigs. If you have any additional questions about my sitting style or my personal preferences please do hesitate to ask! Hope to hear from you soon Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I prioritize making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved, whether it’s through regular visits, playtime, or just being there to provide companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate the time needed to ensure your pets routine stays consistent, so they always feel safe and secure. Safety, trust, and comfort are at the core of my pet care approach. My home is fully pet-proofed, with no exposed wires, harmful plants, or small objects that could be swallowed, ensuring a safe environment for your pet. I’m on a floor level with no stairs, offering easy access, and my fenced-in yard provides a secure space for outdoor play, with a screen door to let in fresh air while keeping your pet safe inside. All doors and windows are securely locked, with childproof locks where needed, to prevent any accidental escapes. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, with an emergency kit ready and a plan in place for any unexpected situations. Daily health checks allow me to monitor your pet’s well-being, while regular updates and photos keep you informed, so you can trust that your pet is safe and happy. If transportation is needed, I use pet-friendly, secure carriers or harnesses to ensure safe travel. For homes with multiple pets, I provide separate feeding and resting areas to avoid conflicts and ensure each pet’s comfort. Finally, I maintain a clean and hygienic environment, regularly sanitizing feeding areas, toys, and bedding, so your pet always has a healthy space to relax in.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and genuine care for dogs at every stage of life. I’ve personally taken care of my own dog for over 10 years (before he moved in with my grandparents), which has given me extensive experience in both puppy care and senior dog support. I’ve also provided special care for young, energetic dogs as well as older pets who need a bit more patience and attention. On top of that, I’ve regularly helped friends and family with their pets, whether through dog sitting, walking, or assisting with specific care needs. I truly love building trust with every dog I meet and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m in the process of saving up for law school, so I have the freedom to prioritize pet sitting and can easily adjust my availability to meet the needs of each pet and their owner. Whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I love incorporating time with animals into my day—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always prioritize making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I stick closely to the pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I also take extra steps to keep the home tidy and secure while I’m there. I make sure to give plenty of attention and updates to the owners, so they feel at ease while they’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with lots of room to play and relax. I make sure their routine is kept as consistent as possible and that they feel like part of the family while staying with me. Whether in my home or theirs, I always approach pet care with patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals.

About: I have taken care of all different kind of pets throughout my high school years. I raised a cow all the way through rabbits. Coming to college in TN, I have really missed my animals back home in California. I am not only doing this for money. I am doing this for a bond and trust between you, me, and your pets. I have a goal to get more comfortable with your dog each time. I do this for my own happiness and their happiness as well when their owner cannot be there. I am easy to contact and keep in touch with and I will treat your pet like the coolest aunt they’ve ever had. I cannot wait to meet them and yourself! Thank you for considering! I am currently an assistant so my schedule varies but i am mostly home during my time. I’d love to hang out with your pet in the meantime! My apartment stays clean and comfy for pets. They’re more than welcomed to cuddle in my couch/bed and we have many other friendly pets around my building they can say hi to!

About: I have pet sit and walked dogs for years, growing up I was surrounded by and owned dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, and parakeets. I love animals and they enrich life! I taking classes at a school so I am able to care for pets and provide walks the whole day! I am also able to fit in pet sitting afterwards as I only work 6 hours a day. I’m able to feed animals in the morning before I leave for work, and spend much of the afternoon to hangout and give them some love. I’m a home body and love to hangout at home during pet sitting with the pet. I love to brush pets everyday and I love going on walks with dogs daily! I enjoy playing with dogs to get energy out as well and am always mindful to give some time in between playing and eating to ensure a safe eating routine!

Rachel did a fantastic job with our two dogs! Her drop-in visits were the perfect way to break up their day, and she went above and beyond by playing with them, making sure they had fresh water and treats, and even working on some training. Knowing the dogs were genuinely enjoying her visits gave us total peace of mind and made being away on our trip so much easier. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such great hands. We will definitely use Rachel again in the future!

This was my first time using Rover. Rachael agreed to a last minute and quick meet and greet to go over routine with the pups. I had a last minute booking with her due to a family emergency. Was very happy she came and took care of them as agreed.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Cross Plains

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Cross Plains is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 3,515 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cross Plains. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Cross Plains 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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 Cross Plains with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
