“Catheryne was an EXCELLENT sitter. Our dogs, Ariel, Charlie, Weo and Toot- were well loved. She sent photos which we were unable to see because of the location of our stay, until on our way back home. I've always been super anxious about someone caring for my babies. She was a very well mannered young lady. Our dogs didnt even act like they'd missed us....lol....that NEVER happens, so I know she was superb as loving my babies!! I will most definitely be using her for our future trips!”

“Kyle was a pleasure to work with for house sitting of three fur babies. Friendly and professional. We were thrilled with the level of care and attention our 2 cats and 1 dog received. This was the first time leaving a rescue dog with strong separation anxiety, and it went perfectly due to Kyle. We absolutely will request Kyle again.”

“Destiny cat sat our cat while we were out of town for 10 days. She came over daily to feed our cat, play with her, and keep her company. She left our home spotless and even washed the cat bowl and swept up the cat litter that our cat kicks out of her litter box before our return. She also send us videos and pictures regularly so our minds were put to ease that our cat was taken care of back home. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone reliable and responsible to come over to petsit their fur baby.”

About: Hi!! My name is Hailey!! and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember!! As a dog and cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I currently have a Golden Retriever named Arlo and a cat named Clover, so I know the importance of providing pets with love, patience, exercise, playtime, and PLENTY of attention!! Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit while you’re away, or overnight care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Every pet in my care will be treated like they’re part of my own family. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water and medications, give lots of affection, and send plenty of photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a responsible online college student with a flexible schedule, and I am very dependable, organized, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and personality. I know every animal is different, and I’ll always take the time to earn their trust and make sure they have a perfect experience!! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend!! My schedule is flexible, allowing me to spend quality time with the pets in my care rather than rushing through visits. I understand how important routines are, and I’ll follow your feeding, medication, potty break, and exercise instructions carefully. I make sure pets feel at home and safe and comfortable my house is clean and spacious for your fur baby to play I will keep my eyes on your baby 24/7 till my service time is up I will make sure they are well fed and have plenty of water.

About: My name is Janet! I’m a student at Berry College! I took care of a lot of pets from people at my church when I was younger and and right now I have a little 2yr old dog of my own who I adore so much🤍 I’ve mainly taken care of small dogs but I’ve been around helping take care of medium and a few large dogs! I love animals so much and I hope to be able to give them the best care! I’m a student at Berry college, and I’m not able to have the time to work a part time job or 8 hour shift, if I think something like this can help me earn more money as well as it’s me being around animals, which I love. It can also help give me some time to destress away from college and be around the most adorable pets!! I have been around many pets, mainly dogs but right now is the first time I have a dog, and she is friendly with pets outside of home but I don’t know how she will react to animals coming into her ‘area’ so I would prefer to care at a clients house! Of course, I will follow the rules that the owner sets, whether it’s how many times the pet needs to be fed, its limit on treats, when and where they potty, what time they go on walks, play/nap time, etc, I’ll take care of them as if they were my own <3

“Suzanne was nothing but spectacular. She was extremely meticulous with our pets and I was very comfortable having her stay in our home. She went above and beyond with things around the house, inside and out. Watered plants, filled feeders, laundry etc. She was always reachable and sent pictures. I am pretty particular with who I choose to watch our pets and Suzanne exceeded my expectations. ❤️ Thank you, Suzanne!!”

I received updates and pictures while we were away and that was appreciated. I will be asking Dawn to help us again.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to each pet as if they were my own. I’m especially patient with young pets who are still learning, and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training like potty routines, leash manners, and gentle socialization. I also have a soft spot for senior pets and understand how important it is to move at their pace, keep them comfortable, and watch for any changes in their behavior or needs. Above all, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine\. As a mom to older, high school\-aged kids, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care\. I truly enjoy filling my days with something meaningful, and caring for animals brings me so much joy\. Whether it’s checking in on them throughout the day, keeping their routines consistent, or simply spending quiet time helping them feel safe and comfortable, I make sure each pet feels loved and cared for as part of my weekly rhythm\. I approach every pet with a calm, gentle energy and a strong sense of responsibility. In both my home and my client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and keeping pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I carefully follow each pet’s routine—feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and any special instructions—so they feel secure and cared for. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and do my best to maintain everything just as they left it, while giving their pet plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. In my own home, I create a quiet, cozy setting where pets can relax and feel at ease. As a mom to older, high school-aged kids, I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for what you love most. I treat every pet as if they were my own, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for.

About: What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is a unique blend of hands-on experience with high-drive working dogs, young puppies, and senior companions, combined with a deep passion for canine wellness. Having handled everything from focused bomb detection K9s and energetic pups to older dogs needing gentle patience, I understand how to read subtle body language and tailor my care to every stage of life. Whether I’m channeling a puppy's boundless energy into positive foundations, accommodating the slower pace and medical needs of a senior dog, or channeling my favorite part of the job. Giving high-energy dogs the active, engaging exercise and play they crave. I approach every animal with structure, safety, and plenty of affection. My schedule is structured to ensure your pets always receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. I work a full-time job Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, but thanks to my one-hour lunch break and proximity, I am available to pop in and check on your pets midday. Faith and community are important parts of my life, so I attend church services on Sunday mornings, as well as occasional weekday events. However, your animal's needs will always come first, and I plan my schedule meticulously to ensure they are fully cared for before I step away. Weekends are my completely open free time! With your permission, and depending on your pet's personality and comfort level, I would love to take them along with me on simple weekend errands or outings so they get extra companionship and fun. In a client's home, I respect their space and routines down to the letter, ensuring doors and gates are strictly monitored, feeding schedules are exact, and living areas are kept tidy and secure to prevent any accidental access to harmful items. I also believe in keeping the home looking lived-in and secure while owners are away, providing frequent updates and peace of mind. My approach is rooted in calm leadership, vigilant observation, and a structured routine that minimizes separation anxiety and keeps pets thriving.

About: Hi, I'm Carley or most know me as Angelina! I have been caring for furry fiends all my life! I have had a several goldens, yorkies, and my current little guy is a german short haired pointer! I absolutely love getting to play, walk, or snuggle with any pet of any size! I definitely believe the saying that a dog is a mans best friend and believe that we should treat our animals as such.I as a fellow dog mom understand how important it is to have someone you can trust watching a member of your family. I believe spending just a few hours with an pet (or human, in their case) can change the whole mood for the day. I am fairly flexible and willing to work with you to make sure your family member is cared for! From walking and check ins, to pet sitting, or even spending your day out with your four legged friend, I know your little friend will be loved and happy in my care. I feel comfortable feeding, playing with, walking, and even taking your pets on outings! My work schedule is a set one, so I can stop by before work, during my lunch break, or after work and anytime during the weekends. If you need something a little bit different let me know and I am happy to accommodate your needs! I have a huge yard that all dogs love to run in and I live in a private neighborhood that is perfect for walking in.

About: I love all pets and I am comfortable with the understanding that all pets are different and need special attention in different areas, whether old or young. Younger pets need the attention and patience, while older pets need the attention of them being a little slower in walking and may need medication. I have open availability to care ,walk, play, love and give companionship with, I also have a small pup that they can play with as well. I make sure the pet is comfortable, keeping their area clean and safe. Giving them the attention they need until they feel safe. Following the instructions of the owner on how to care for them.

About: I travel with my three children, ages 12, 9, and 8, so I believe in being upfront about our family from the start! What sets me apart is my experience caring for a variety of animals, my patience, and my attention to each pet’s individual needs. I have experience caring for small and large dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and other small pets ranging in age from 1 to 16 years old. I’m comfortable caring for both young and senior pets and understand that each stage of life comes with different needs, energy levels, and routines. I’m also experienced in administering medication using pill pockets and handheld pill shooters, following detailed care instructions, and helping pets feel comfortable in a new environment. I understand that some animals need extra time to warm up to new people, so I approach them with patience and respect for their boundaries. I work from home while homeschooling my children, which helps us maintain a structured routine while making time for the animals in our care. I’m attentive to details, take pride in keeping homes clean and organized, and believe communication is essential. I’m happy to provide regular photo updates so you can stay connected with your pets while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind that their pets and homes are in caring, responsible hands. Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine! I work from home and homeschool my three children, which gives us flexibility to plan our days around each pet’s individual needs. Our routine typically includes morning feedings, fresh water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I work Monday through Friday from 5 PM to 1:30 AM EST, so I plan pet care around my work schedule and make sure each pet’s needs are met before, during, and after my shift. Your pet’s established routine will always be a priority. I have experience caring for a variety of animals, including small and large dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and other small pets, ranging in age from 1 to 16 years old. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, so I take the time to follow your specific instructions for feeding, exercise, medication, and daily care. I'm comfortable administering medication using pill pockets and handheld pill shooters when needed. I also take pride in keeping your home clean, organized, and well cared for. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

Dogs are like humans, with legs lol I understand them and they always tend to come to me with out me speaking, its like a spiritual connection we have with out words. I will communicate with standard commands and use treats (if allowed) to gain trust & help them feel comfortable while mommy/daddy are away or on vacation. I live in a town home with a big back yard also a dog park! So they will get plenty of outside play time and explore the new scenery.

FAQs for House Sitting - Plainville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 200 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plainville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Plainville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Plainville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Plainville 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!

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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Plainville. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
