“Courtney and Caleb were amazing! They gave prompt updates and sent pics whenever they could to let us know how our Khali was doing! Would totally recommend for anyone needing a sitter!”

“Nora was very professional. She handled our special needs dog with care and communicated very well. We would be very happy to have her take care of Riley again🐶”

“Jillian did an amazing job with my dog Oakley. On the 1st day Oakley was unsure of her and giving her a hard time. Jillian suggested taking the visit down to 30 mins from an hour so it wasn’t to much for him. She did not give up on Oakley and was very patient until he was more comfortable with her. By the end of the week he was much more comfortable and excited to see her”

“I recently moved to town & am thrilled rover connected me to Hannah! Hannah checked in on my very skiddish cat while I was on a work trip. Was able to book her for a last minute extra visit when I got very delayed on my return trip. Hannah is reliable & responsive care-giver. Will be booking her again for sure! 😸”

“Lee was fantastic. We had an issue on our end with our electronic locks. Lee worked around the issue and our handyman to make sure our pets were taken care of. Above and beyond. I'd certainly reccomend her and she is our first option next trip.”

“Pam was fantastic! She gave me daily updates and photos of my babies. She is very sweet and took great care of my kitties. I would definitely recommend her to look after your fur babies.”

“Kimberly was amazing! Her communication was great, she sent pictures of every walk along with a map of where they went, and overall she took wonderful care of our dog Fitz. We are so glad to have found her! :)”


About: Hi, I'm Brooke! I’m 19 years old and have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, I was never without a pet, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. My first cat, Hunter Patches, was a huge part of my life before he passed last year. Since then, I’ve welcomed two new cats, Loki and Marie, into my family. I also have a 10 year old rescue dog named Gunner and recently rescued a bearded dragon named Dino. I’m comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles, and I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check on, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have a flexible routine and enjoy spending time feeding, playing with, walking, and giving attention to pets throughout the week. I will care for your pets like they’re my own by keeping them fed, comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their routines closely, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel calm and cared for in their home environment.
About: From a young age I have been taking care of my own and other people’s animals, including walking, bathing, training, playing with, and sharing love with all of the precious animals I meet! :) During the work week I am available to care for animals in the evenings (and mornings as needed) and any time of day on the weekends! Caring for your pets in your home would allow for them to feel as comfortable as possible while you are away. I would seek to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible and would follow any instructions or recommendations left/given!
About: I started longer-term overnight dog sitting about three years ago. I do frequent daytime potty breaks for friends when they are out of town. I have watched cats as well. I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years and I enjoy both cat and dog snuggles. Not currently working much, schedule is flexible which is ideal for your puppies that may need potty breaks while you are at work during the day or away on weekends. Unfortunately, I will only go to the clients home. I will not bring other animals into my house. I do own a cat and this is something my husband and I have agreed on.
About: I've spent many years working at a Pet Grooming shop in CNY spending lots of time with dogs and cats. I understand temperament and behavior very well. I know the ins and outs of pet care as I have two dogs of my own. Maxx and Winnie are both golden retrievers who love everyone and everything. If you're worried about leaving your best friend with a stranger, no need to fear with me! I'm excited to spend time with your fur baby whether it's going for walks or letting them outside. I love all kinds of animals and am ready to take care of yours! I'm currently off for the summer as I work for a school district, so I typically am available most days ! I'll try my best to update days I'm unavailable. I currently have two golden retrievers. One is a puppy, and the other is 10 years old. I do not currently have a fenced in yard.
About: I am a big animal lover, former dog/ guinea pig owner, former Rosamond Gifford Zoo volunteer, and experienced dog sitter. I'm patient and love to care for any animal! I take caregiver instructions seriously and carry them out to the best of my abilities. I'm easy to contact and will give daily reports if desired. I'm currently looking for a full time job so I have a lot of free time to use for any pet sitting jobs! I am available to do day/night visits but I am not available for overnights. I will follow any caregiver instruction given and house rules if there are any to note. Being respectful of another person's space and pets is very important to me.
“Taryn was excellent. We have two senior dogs with anxiety and special needs who it is hard to find care for. Taryn had great energy and our dogs warmed up to her right away. She sent lots of pictures and updates and helped us relax and enjoy some time away from home.”
About: I absolutely love taking care of pets! Regardless of age or energy level, they will be in great hands with me. I have taken care of my cat Garbanzo since she was 6 months old and she is now almost 4! We are absolute best friends and seeing her everyday is such a joy. I also grew up with dogs of varying from small a shih tzuI to a great dane then to pitbull mixes. I have taken care of friends and families pets while they were away and it’s always something I've looked forward to. I love sending pet pictures to their owners to show they are well loved while away, and am communicative if I have any questions or concerns! I want to provide the care for your pet that I would want for mine. I currently have an open schedule while in between jobs. This means daily check-ins even a couple time per day will work for me. My calendar will be updated as that changes. I will follow instructions provided to me by the owner to ensure proper care as all pets require something different. If I have any questions I will be sure to reach out to the owner. I want the owner to feel comfortable knowing I will follow what they want for their pet.
“Hi there! This was my very first time using Rover and I was certainly very nervous to entrust my little guy with a new sitter since our recent move! However, Alex was fabulous ! He is everything you could want and more from a sitter and from a caregiver to your furry friends/family. Alex is extremely responsive, he arranged for at least 2 visits to meet my cat Oliver and to review schedule, questions, concerns, diet etc. Before actually starting the pet sitting. He got to know Oliver and his demeanor, and my cat took to Alex right away. Alex is gentle, playful and affectionate and you can see that he genuinely cares. I always worry when returning back from a trip about how Oliver may be and how my home may look, and Alex took such great care of my cat and my home looks just as I left it. I now feel comfortable going on more trips to see loved ones and I couldn't have done this without Alex.”


About: I am an experience animal care taker. I grew up on a farm with all sorts of wild and domesticated animals. I’ve worked with many families taking care of small-large pets including dogs and cats. I also worked at a dog daycare for 3+ years before perusing higher education. With my expertise I believe that your pet is in the safest hands possible. I’m currently working as a youth soccer coach and have the time for pet care in my schedule. Would love to take on the responsibility of taking care of those we love so much as it is a pleasure to be around animals. I live in an apartment with an enclosed outdoor space pets to get fresh air. I also have pet sitting camera for pet owners to check in how things are going.
“She did amazing with the our zoo. Dogs, cats, and birds. helped with medication and even cleaned up mess here and there. All the animals were in good spirits at us arriving home. She took awesome pictures of all the animals that made us worry less about all the pets while we were gone.”


“Heather was great!! She took care of my Lizzie while i was out of town, and my poor pup got sick. Heather cleaned up all messes Lizzie made during times between walks, (lizzie is a tornado when left alone) she was always on time, did everything that was required of her and more too. Heather, you are a great worker, and care taker. I fully appreciate everything you did for Lizzie, and again, im sorry she destroyed half my house and you found yourself cleaning it up. You did a wonderful job, and i will most certainly be hiring you again”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 288 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Plainville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
