“Amber & her husband, Geoffrey, were amazing caretakers of my two cats while I was away. Their food mat and cat litter area were just as clean as how I left them and my cats seemed happy & full of energy when I returned home ☺ I knew they were in good hands based on the Rover Card updates received every day along with photos of them being pat/played with or relaxing; her phone takes amazing photos! I am so relieved to have found local people who truly care about animals to take care of them while I’m away and hope to have them watch my cats in the future!”
“Allison went above and beyond for my pup, while she was scared of fireworks she sang a brave girl song and was very detailed in the cards left I would definitely book with her again and she has 100% of my trust”
“Cierra has been working with us for a week now. She’s been very accommodating with our schedule and worked with us to find a time convenient for all. Rocket got along with her immediately and she’s been fantastic about playing with him. Her communication is thorough and professional. I would highly recommend Cierra for drop ins and walking services.”
“Our travel schedule went a little haywire during this booking and Stephanie smoothly accomodated, taking a lot of stress out of the situation. Again, the pet care was outstanding. Would highly recommend Stephanie!”
“Allyssah was great with my three dogs during her drop in visits. She took the time to meet them while I was home prior to the visits and was very friendly and asked good questions to make sure she was prepared. She was very punctual and sent lots of pictures and updates. I would book her again!”
“Taylor was wonderful with Teddy! He updated us and sent pictures. Teddy took to him immediately! Don’t hesitate to reach out to Taylor if you need someone to care for your pups!”
“Molly was awesome! Great detailed communication, prompt and complete visits. She is friendly and enthusiastic, we felt assured that our pets were well cared for while we were away. Will definitely use her again!”
“Jessica did an amazing job caring for our cat Bailey while we were away! She spent extra time caring for and getting to know our cat and sent pictures and updates following every visit. I would highly recommend Jessica and we will definitely be using her in the future!”
“We would absolutely book Hailey again. She was on time, reliable, detailed, and easy to work with. Our cats loved her and were extremely thankful for her being able to give them some attention while we were away.”
About: Works at doggy daycare, which includes boarding and grooming! Also have had 2 dogs, one small, one big! I would pay attention to your dog’s needs and preferences! I currently work part time, but I have enough time to fit in more time to care for your pups! I’m seeking more experience working with dogs and would love to care for any pups I can! I am a very loving and caring to my dog! He’s a sweet American Pitbull Terrier mix. He is very well behaved on the leash and very responsive when giving commands. I like to make sure I have control over the pup to ensure smooth walks and to ensure the safety for me, but most importantly for your pup!
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life- some being very high maintenance! I have also worked in a doggy day care and have trained experience in working with dogs of all sizes and ages, as well as performing things such as animal cpr and safety procedures! As a college student, I am currently available most of December and January...especially the holidays!!! I don't celebrate Christmas and would love to help any families who travel during the holiday season! I am also currently available for the summer season (May-August) My main goal is to make sure your pets are comfortable!

About: Hello, my name is Sophia! I am located in Franklin, MA. I’ve been working in the animal care industry for 5 years and have worked at multiple different daycare/boarding facilities. I not only have experience in pet care, but also dog training. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pup/kitty! I am currently working per diem so my schedule can be inconsistent. However, since I do not work the same hours every week, I will be better able to make the time that adheres to your needs and schedule. Your pup’s health and safety will always be my top priority. During walks or overnight stays, your dog/cat will be my main focus at all times. I am always on top of your pets needs whether it is a walk, potty break, play time, feeding & water, or litter scooping; no task is too big or small.
About: I have had cats and dogs in my life since the age of 6. I have raised two dogs from puppies, and have a lot of experience with older dogs as my friends and family prefer to adopt. I previously fostered a Lab-Pitbull, and currently have a Pomeranian, so I have plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes. I am currently available any day of the week from 1:30pm on. I work from home, so overnight or extended stays are no issue for me! I have a big fenced in yard where dogs can run and play, and I live in a quiet neighborhood that is great for dog walks. I am available on-call to take dogs for walks in their own neighborhoods as well! I love to play fetch and give some of the best scritches in town (just ask my dog) :)
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a little girl, whether they were my own pets or the pets of neighbors, friends, or the dogs at my daycare job. People know they can rely on me especially when it comes to their pets, because I know that to most people, their dog or cat is seen as an important member of the family and they should be treated as such. I am very capable of this as well as seeing to your animal’s needs, including but not limited to: playing, exercising, grooming, bathing, feeding, training, and petting. At the moment, I am working at a doggy daycare and learning to train dogs. I have available on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays but I will become more available soon. I will play with your pet and create a safe way for them to play. I will make sure your pet is healthy, happy, and safe. I will respect your property and privacy and make sure I follow your instructions to the T.
“Showed up on time, was kind to our property and our pup. Sent pictures of the pup playing and notified of arrival and completeness of the visit. Felt very comfortable that our pup had a great time and that he was cared for lovingly! Thank you.”

I can easily crate or walk dogs and keep up with precise feeding schedules!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Plainville
Dan and Serena were very attentive to our cats' feeding schedules and made sure they had lots of playtime. One of our cats had an accident and they cleaned it up perfectly as if it were never there and even brought out the trash. I highly recommend Serena and would trust her to watch our fur(less) babies again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Plainville on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 10,297 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Plainville. 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 Plainville 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Plainville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
