“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!”
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 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.
“Britny really helped us out on short notice and did drop-in visits with our pups. She was responsible and had good communication. We'd definitely use her again. Thanks so much Britny”
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!

“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.”
About: I love animals. I have my whole life. I became a certified dog trainer, through Animal Behavior College in November 2018. I am pet CPR and First Aid certified. I work at Mayo as an Administrative Assistant. In college I had an internship at a animal shelter in Chicago where I got a lot of hands on experience with different types and temperaments of dogs and cats. I am a very compassionate, kind, organized, and caring person. I cant wait to work with your dog. Whether it be walking, boarding, and dog sitting. I have not met a dog that I dont get along with. I know how important peoples pets are to them and I will do anything I need to to make sure that you know your fur baby is being taken care of.
“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 grew up with a shepherd/golden retriever mix, a yellow lab, a black lab, and a cocker spaniel. All with VERY different personalities and energy levels. I have dog/house sat for my neighbors and my friends for years. I currently have a one-eyed (very spoiled) cocker spaniel and am hoping to get a rescue in the recent future. My love for dogs and animals is greater than anything else and I truly believe they deserve the absolute best care. I am a 4th grade teacher which means I am available all summer during any hours! I have a part time job at a gym but it is only a four hour shift a few days a week. Weekends get busy in the summer but during the week I have a very open schedule. I love to stay active and I enjoy taking walks or going for a jog. I have a fenced in yard and a park one block from my house. Silver Lake is also within walking distance. I feed and water my dog, give her weekly baths, and take her on daily walks (if the weather lets us). She also goes on jogs with me but for being a smaller dog we do not go as far as if I were taking care of a larger, more active dog. Because my dog has one eye, she receives eye drops daily to keep it healthy and maintained. She is also receiving ear drops because she is prone to ear infections. Dogs deserve the best and I am willing to take care of them with anything they may need.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life, from my own dog to family dogs to friend’s dogs. Currently I’ll mainly help watch and take care of my girlfriends dog when she is at work I work part time early in the mornings so I’m generally free by 10/11 every morning. I am also currently going to college but I am online full time I will always make sure that I keep your dog on leash, and do my best to keep your dog happy and active. If you have any requests on where I walk your dog just let me know.

You give me some rules you’d like them to follow I shall also follow them ! Dogs are a mans best friend ! I am currently unemployed so I have all the time in the world to spend with your companion!

About: HELLO! I have been taking care of all kinds of dogs from pups to senior pets who have special needs. I have done stuff like this ever since I was in middle school. I am very flexible with my time. I do have a cat allergy but that won’t stop me from that either! I’m always here to help you’re best friend 😊 Im very flexible with my schedule for a couple months! I can do early mornings to late nights. I’m always able to help with anything! I’m very detail oriented and need straightforward instructions in order to properly care for a pet. The more straightforward the instructions the better! I treat any pet as if they were my own. Maybe a chance to spoil with my special frozen pet friendly watermelon slush for the hot summer days? Or a little trip to get a pup cup? My dogs are spoiled and I miss them so much so this would be a win-win for the both of us 🤣

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.
