About: My husband and I have two dogs of our own. Our dogs love to hike, swim, wrestle, cuddle, and eat. I travel for work, and I have been fortunate to have found great dog walkers through Rover. I know when my dog walkers love my dogs as their own! It puts me at ease when I am away from home and find a great walker. Looking forward to meeting you & your dog! I am home in Rochester for a few weeks. I would love put your mind at ease and walk your dog(s) while you are at work! Shoot me a message and let's see if I can help you out! I travel for work so I am in & out of Rochester. When I am home in Rochester I will update the calendar for dog walks! I do not provide boarding in my home. I am happy to walk your dog out of your home when you need those extra walks while you are at work!

Katelyn is kind and communicative, and we feel confident our cat has been in good hands. We appreciated the pictures during visits and her attentiveness to Rudy’s needs. We will definitely use her services again in the future!

Mackenzie was absolutely wonderful. We went on a wel long trip and two days prior we had a meet and greet and the kitties immediately fell in love with her. We got daily photos of the cats and status updates. Although our cats are petty low maintenance, they enjoy the love from the people they allow to live with them. it was so great to know they were in such good hands while we were away. Couldn’t be more pleased.

Lauren did a great job looking after my pets over a three day weekend. I got details of each visit and pictures, which is great for a worrying pet parent. I have a dog and a cat who is normally stand-offing, but she walked right up to Lauren when they first met. She even made sure my reptiles had water and food while we were out. I could tell a big difference in my pets' demeanors once we got home and it made me feel good knowing they were cared for. I highly recommend!

About: I've spent the last eight years caring for animals, and it's truly become a passion of mine. I've raised puppies from just a few weeks old, learning how important patience and consistency are. Right now, I'm caring for a senior dog, which has given me a deeper appreciation for the special needs and gentle care older pets require. I love all animals and enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether it's a playful pup or calm senior, I'm committed to making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and well care for when they're with me. I'm currently on break from school for the summer and working part-time time so I have plenty of time to devote to loving your fur baby! I can be available for weekdays and weekends. I have two fur babies at home that love the company of another friend. I love to take them for walks, throw a ball, snuggle on the couch, or work on training skills.

About: I’ve been around animals almost my whole life and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I currently have three cats of my own, but I also grew up with dogs starting at the age of 5 and have experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I regularly help take care of friends’ and families cats and dogs as well, so I’m very comfortable working with animals outside of my own home! I’ve cared for senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience, as well as dogs with injuries who require close attention and gentle care. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and laid back, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. I currently work full time between the hours of 8:30-4 with two days off during the week. I manage my own schedule so I am very flexible and can be wherever, whenever I am needed! I’m an early bird so I’m ready for any needs no matter the time of day: mornings, afternoons or evenings! I am also available and easily flexible on weeks, holidays or long vacations! In my own home, I have set routines for my fur babies. They get fed at the same time every morning and every, water is refreshed every day, and their litter box gets cleaned two times a day. This is the same when I help to take care of friends and families animals; they deserve as much care as my own do! I follow every instruction and maybe even take it a step further because I know that if those were my babies being taken care of, I would want the best care possible for them. I’m very good at sticking to set routines as my priority is always pets come first! I believe this is how every fur baby should be treated and make sure they are comfortable and set in their own homes.

About: I graduated college as a Veterinary Technician and I currently work at a vet clinic that deals with dogs, cats, and all exotic and caged pets! So I have the medical knowledge to keep your pet safe and the passionate heart to keep them happy! I love going for runs, walks, hikes, or also just cuddling and watching Netflix and giving scratches. I have an extra soft spot for senior pets that might need some special care or just a warm lap to know that someone is there for them. (Especially if they can’t see or hear) I’m a very calm and patient person. I’ve worked with the smallest teacup breeds to the 250+ pound, slobbery giant breeds. I’d love to treat your pet as my own!

About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.

About: I've had pets since I was five years old, and have taken care of dogs for the last five years. I absolutely adore dogs and treat my own as a beloved (perhaps a bit spoiled) member of my family. I also have cared over the years for different pets in my neighborhood, and have been on Rover for over 5 years, working with multiple families and pets. I have an extremely flexible schedule since I work from home, and can be available as often as your pet requires me to be. I have availability every day of the week, as well as nights. I am a very reliable and trustworthy person, who wants nothing more than to provide your fur baby with a safe and caring environment. I am also very respectful of others' space.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Plainview

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 308 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Plainview. 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 Plainview 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.

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 Plainview 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 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.

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 Plainview 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 Plainview. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 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.
