About: I do not have any special skills. I am just an animal lover. I own an 8 year old lab mix named Sweetie. She has been a part of our family since she was around 8 weeks old. When caring for your beloved pets, I will always treat them like my own, with love, patience, and kindness. I currently am a teacher. I can do drop-ins during the week and weekends, in-home sitting, and boarding on the weekends I do not have a fenced in back yard, so your dogs will be taken out on a leash if boarded here. I am new to pet sitting, so this part will be updated as I sit more. My dog is currently 8 years old. She sees the vet once per year unless more visits are necessary. I take her outside for regular exercise. I believe that dogs should be taken out on leashes for safety.
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, from cats and dogs to hamsters, guinea pigs, and even reptiles like turtles and lizards, I offer compassionate and reliable pet-sitting services. As a pet parent to my own two cats and two dogs, alongside my caring boyfriend, I understand the importance of providing a loving and safe environment for your beloved companions. Having provided pet-sitting for my family for many years, I am eager to extend my care to your furry, scaly, or feathered friends! I’m currently only working part time as a bartender and a server at 2 different jobs. So managing my time is pretty easy considering I can request off easily in advance or get a shift covered by someone else if necessary. I reside in a spacious 3 bedroom house in Baton Rouge with my boyfriend, providing ample space for pet care. While I'm unable to host other pets in my home due to my pit bulls reactivity, I do have experience with aggressive dogs. My pets follow a strict daily schedule, maintained with my boyfriend's help. As an owner of larger breeds (Pitbull and German Shepherd), I'm comfortable handling bigger dogs, even in apartment settings, thanks to daily walks down three flights of stairs at our old place. I'm also experienced in administering medications and catering to pets with special needs, ensuring your pet receives the personalized care they require.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Plainview
Laura was so sweet. She came and met our pets a week or so before we left on our trip. She was so easy to be around and wasn’t in a rush to leave. She wanted to know exactly how we wanted our pets cared for. Loved all the check-in alerts and pictures of our animals at each check in. Will definitely reach out to her again when we have other vacations. Thank you Laura!!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Plainview is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $23 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
