“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”
“Really needed someone last moment and Shelby was very quiet to respond. Very responsive to any messages I sent and sent pictures and updates throughout the day without me even needing to ask. Very pleasant experience, highly recommend. Shelby’s dog is very friendly so no need to worry about bringing your furry companion over for the day”
“Kayla was amazing with my dog! Each time I picked him up, he was happy, and clearly well cared for. She took amazing care of my pet even though he has a broken leg and has restrictions. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her services are absolutely worth every penny.”
“Dani was amazing! Took my dog to her 3x and she was excited each time. Photos and updates were sent without asking. I would definitely book anytime to take care of my fur baby. I highly recommend.”
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.
About: Throughout my life, I've been surrounded by dogs and cats. I understand their body language, I'm very affectionate with them, and that's why I feel they feel at home when they're with me. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule to always take care of your pets🥰 I easily adapt to your schedule just let me know in advance! I have a space for your dog and I’m always available to take him for walks as often as he wants! I appreciate your trust🥰
“10/10 experience as a dog owner. I didn’t even have to reach out first to get an update on Gingi and she was professional, timely, and nice :) Gingi seemed very comfortable and happy in her care. I would recommend and book again without hesitation !”
About: I’m a compassionate and dedicated animal lover with over 11 years of experience in pet care and farm management. From a young age, animals have been a central part of my life, and my love for them only continues to grow. Whether it’s through my own pets or helping friends and family, I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience in animal care. I’m on a mission to create a rescue and horse stall that will not only offer a safe haven for animals but will also serve as a place for children with autism and special needs to experience the healing power of animal therapy. My goal is to create an environment where both animals and people can thrive, connecting through the unique bond that therapy animals offer. What I Offer I provide a range of services with your pet happiness as my top priority, including: • Nail care and baths • Dog walking and pet sitting • Specially prepared homemade food tailored to your pet’s dietary needs I believe in offering care that goes beyond just the basics. Your pets will be treated like family, and I promise they will be in the best hands possible. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet’s needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m here to help! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family members. Please feel free to share your preferred schedule, here on rover and I’ll do my best to accommodate both your needs and your pup’s. Thank you. I have a partially fenced yard with a river in the back, and my two pups, Nala and Winchester, are here to keep your dog company—there will be plenty of activities and fun for your pup! For the safety and well-being of all pets in my care, I do require an up-to-date vaccination record for each pet. I also ask for a brief overview of your pet’s daily routine, so I can maintain their schedule and ensure they stay comfortable and happy during their time with us. Additionally, please feel free to share any important details, such as potential triggers, resource guarding tendencies, allergies, or anything else I should know. I’d love to also hear about their favorite treats, toys, and activities to make sure they have an enjoyable stay!
“This was my first time ever leaving Ange. I was a little nervous, but everything went great over all. Carolina text me through out the day and made me feel so comfortable with me leaving Ange. I will definitely use Carolina in the near future.”
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and some friendly neighborhood chickens. I love them all! I’ve been walking dogs since I was a freshman in high school and I don’t think i’ll ever get tired of it! I have a very flexible schedule since I only have a part time job, and I take quite a bit of work from this app :) I love taking walks, so I provide anywhere from two to four potty breaks or trips outside throughout the day. I also enjoy hiking and I like to bring pups with a bit more energy to tag along. I’m more than happy to stay in your home with your pets if discussed and my main concern is that your pets are happy, safe, and just like you left them.
About: I'll be honest, I am doing this because I need extra money. But I want to make extra money spending time with your pets because I love being around animals and I want to spend actual time with them giving them love, exercise, and a good time. I am able to spend actual time with them as I am a teacher and do not work during the summer. Animals deserve to be shown affection as much as possible throughout the day especially when a lot of their time is spent waiting for owners to come home. Don't let your pets wait around for you, give them someone to hangout with in the meantime! I love taking dogs on walks and hikes! I know how important it is for animals to be cared for meaning being fed, bathed, and given a good rubbin. If you have any questions, feel free to ask (: I am a teacher on summer break so I am fully available for your pets! I love to take them for walks and play with them. I care for pets by taking them for walks and to the bathroom based on their schedule at home. I love to play with dogs and give them rubs. I love making new dog friends.
“Elizabeth and her family took such good care of our dog for the day. They provided a wonderful home with spacious backyard for him to run around with their golden retrievers, AND took him hiking in the snow (which our dog loves). We really appreciated Elizabeth accepting our booking request with pretty short notice as well. We definitely recommend Elizabeth!”
“Margo watched Finn during the day when I had to go back to work. She had no problem accepting the challenge of caring for a young puppy and has many years of experience raising dogs of her own. Finn got along really well with her two dogs and was always excited to go to Margo's house when I dropped him off in the morning. My mind was at ease during the work day knowing that he was in excellent care. She sent pictures and updates of them going on walks together, playing in the yard with her dogs, and working on some of his training. If we ever go away on a trip, I will definitely use Margo to care for Finn again! She truly loves what she does and cares deeply for all her clients' pups.”
About: Taken care of dogs + other pets since I was 5 and always have loved taking care of them, especially puppies, including my own and other's. I have open availability as long as there are no other appointments that day; I accept same-day appointments as well and shape to your needs. I make sure pets are always comfortable and just like people, they can be afraid of new people too so I will always make sure to be considerate of all pets feelings.

About: I have a french bulldog pug mix named Bugzey.He is very aloof wifh other dogs but loves people and especially car rides through Ashaway!I have a Jack Russell terrier named Nyko that LOVES TO PLAY WITH TOYS!His favorite game is chase and catch with his pink beef flavored ball!He tend to hoard all of his toys!I also have a miniature pinscher named NEMO who is the leader of our pack.On walks he leads by 5 feet to ensure every aspect of the ambient terrain is safe.That is the canine pack that your dog will have a joyful time with.I love dogs and I have to stay home as my pug gets completely frazzled if I try to leave!Bugzey obviously has separation anxiety.I will do my absolute best to care for your dog as if it were one of mine.Your dog will never be unattended and my Nyko who is a JRT (Jack Russell Terrier)will surely show your dog everything he knows about staying actively amused and entertained for the entire day to make every second count! I am a stay at home dog parent. MY PRIORITY IS MY DOGS! I have lots of land all beautifully landscaped and live on a quiet country road surrounded by farmland and peaceful tranquility. Exercise is paramount to a healthy dog which is why we walk over a mile a day!We even use a stroller for our seniors that aren't as happy to walk for an hour.Exercise is included while your dog stays on our premises! I have a very large fenced in yard but still provide 24/7 supervision as I fervently believe that fur babies need protection. We love being outdoors and being active.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Plainfield commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 CT 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.
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 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 551 sitters in Plainfield, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
