“Elizabeth watched our four cats over the holidays and was a great sitter! From the beginning she was super communicative and worked with our schedule. She was great with them from our needy lap cat to our scaredy cat who hid all the time. It was a great relief to know we had a reliable sitter for when we were out of the country to check in on our cats. We would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her as a sitter again.”

“This was our first time leaving our cat with a sitter and Bethany took wonderful care of him! She sent a thorough update after each visit and lots of cute pictures. We will definitely be booking with her again :)”

“Lauren is our go-to dog walker now! She’s reliable and timely, and cares for my elderly dog with all of her many medication needs. Lauren is awesome. Would highly recommend.”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for, training, and loving dogs of all sizes and breeds. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet's unique personality and needs. I have lots of experience house sitting for families with dogs, cats, and other animals. I also recently adopted a 7-month-old lab that I am learning to train. I currently work night shift 3 nights a week, so I have lots of time to care for your pets during the day and nights I am not working. I have a fenced in yard and live close to a lot of walking trails. I value communication and discussing individual pet needs and base care off their own daily routines.

“Julie has watched our cats twice now and both times we’ve come home to happy cats! We can tell right away that they’ve been well cared for and received great attention. Julie is thorough at each visit and always send me photos and updates timely. We have one very social cat and one who is more selective and they both enjoy her company! I love knowing that they are in great care while we’re gone and am happy to have found Julie to care for our fur babies while we’re gone!”

About: I have many years of experience as a responsible animal owner who cares very deeply about helping them live their best life. I have had puppies through senior dogs and am reliable in helping your furry friend stay on their schedule as much as possible. After the first week of June 2024, I am available this summer during any day and/or night. Since I work in the school system, I have an open schedule during the summer time. I live in a low-traffic safe neighborhood. I will create a comfortable and safe space for your pet to stay while sticking to your pet's regular feeding and exercise routine as much as possible.
“We had such a wonderful experience with Yareisy! She took amazing care of Loki, and he clearly had the best time during his stay. She went above and beyond by writing a personalized note and sending him home with the cutest souvenirs. We also really appreciated her keeping me updated throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet!”

About: My wife (Bria) and I (Cynde) have extensive experience with cats and dogs. I have experience working with cats and dogs while living in Queens, including senior care and special needs cases. We have 4 fur babies, 2 that have special needs. We love animals and would love to take care of yours! We both work from home and are available in the evenings and weekends. We can be open to daytime needs during the week, which would have to be requested and would likely be before 9 am and during lunchtime. We take care and caution when taking care of others fur babies. This includes meeting beforehand and learning the needs of your fur babies, their schedule, and any special instructions you have. We want to ensure everyone is comfortable prior to starting care.
About: Hi! I’m Kari, a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to two Australian Shepherds. 🐾 I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a natural love for animals, so caring for pets is something that genuinely brings me joy. I’m active, dependable, and attentive, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup needs a long walk, some playtime, companionship while you’re away, or simply a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also very comfortable with high-energy dogs and enjoy keeping active pups entertained and exercised! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can completely trust with your furry family members. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and care. I’ll treat your pets the same way I’d want someone to treat mine. ❤️ I work part-time so I can offer plenty of playtime to your furry friends! Overnights - available Friday-Sunday Any other service - any time Sat, Sun & Monday or after 3pm Tuesday-Friday. I will do whatever you prefer to ensure your cat/dog is safe & comfortable. I can crate them if necessary or secure them in a specific location in the house as well.
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life, from taking care of neighbors pets as a kid, to now owning two cats of my own! I am currently in nurse practitioner school looking to make some money to support me through that. I have some basic animal training experience, as well as medication administration if needed. I would love to take care of your pets and give them some extra love, they deserve it! I am currently working per diem as an RN while I put myself through nurse practitioner school, because of this my schedule is flexible! I am available most weekends and weekdays. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with my boyfriend and two cats. I spoil our kitties and would love to spoil your pet(s) while I care for them as well!

About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.
“Paige was amazing! She checked in on my cat Benny while I was away for a long weekend and sent photos and updates. Your pets will be in great hands with Paige! Thanks again!”

“Isabel was amazing, she was consistent and was great at communicating. Isabel goes above and beyond checking on your beloved pet, she even tidys up, sweeps etc in which was not required to do. I so appreciated the wonderful care and attention she gave my Seamus.”

“Everything went well with Kimberly looking after my 2 pets for over a week. I felt assured that she could handle anything that went wrong and I found her very reliable and kind.”

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Plainville is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $36 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.
