“Leo went to his first daycare with Katie and he loved it! She greeted him at the door and welcomed him and made sure the other pups were away so he wouldn't be overwhelmed walking in. He loved it and can't wait for his next stay! He was definitely tuckered out from all the fun he had playing with the other pups. You can tell Katie knows how to handle things and is a dog-lover. We're so glad we found her!”
“Amanda was great! She was responsive and communicative and made us feel comfortable leaving our pug with her for the day. She provided several updates and some cute photos. She offered to let us see the space and to meet the other dogs she was watching prior to the official sit to ensure we were comfortable. She also has a nice closed-in backyard, a big water fountain and lots of space for the dogs!”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“Lisa and John were great! It was a very last-minute booking and they were incredibly accommodating. I felt very comfortable from the jump leaving Lola with them. They helped her get adjusted and she came home absolutely wiped! I will definitely be booking again.”
“First time using Rover, and I was very nervous leaving my puppy alone with a stranger. Abby took great care of Archie and he had a very fun day! Will definitely be asking her to doggy sit again!”
“Rebecca and her husband were wonderful! I immediately felt comfortable in there home! Jackz our dog is blind and Rebecca was not only willing but happy to help us and Jackz out!”
“Kelly is the best! Our dog Charli can be a bit anxious, but Kelly goes out of her way to make Charli comfortable and does an excellent job caring for her. Charli now looks forward to her daycare sessions with Kelly!”
“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”
“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan again.”
“I was very impressed with Lauren!! She took such great care of my boy today. She sent lots of photos and updates through out the day which was so appreciated and eased any worry I had! Brody looked like he had such a good time and I’m so glad he was able to socialize with some other dogs. He seems very happy and also tired lol. Would love to bring him back again soon! Thank you again Lauren!!!”
About: We have watched many pets over the years and are finally bringing our love to the masses. :) We truly love all animals (every where we have lived animals indoor/outdoor just flock to us it seems ha). We give them the care they deserve and treat every last one as if it were our own personal pet. We have also had several pets through the years that needed medical attention daily (generally giving medication) and understand the importance of maintaining medicine/medical care in a very timely manner. If you are looking for the best care for your pet, look no further this family of pet lovers is where its at. We took a little time off to focus on some other things but we are back at it and ready to love and care for your pet better than anyone on this app 😀♥️ (we might be biased). I work from home full time so I am here almost 24 hrs/day to care for your lovely pet. On the weekends we come and go for short periods of time but generally we are home 80% of the weekend at least. We welcome long and short term pet stays, we just love pets. I have kids who "LOVE" to entertain/give attention to pets and try to teach them new tricks. I have several nearby dog parks, and 1 dog of my own. I have a Black Lab/Great Dane mix about 5 yrs old. He loves having other pets around after he get his sniffs in :)
“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
About: I’ve been around and cared for animals for over 20 years and truly enjoy being around them. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with different personalities — from energetic pups to more anxious or senior pets. I offer walks, drop-in visits, and boarding in my home. I do have a cat, and he is used to being around dogs, but I always prioritize safety and comfort for everyone. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal like they’re part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home and structure my schedule intentionally, so I’m able to provide consistent walks, feeding times, and attention throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins, and when boarding, pets are rarely left alone for long periods. I value routine and make sure each pet’s normal schedule is maintained to help them feel comfortable and secure. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood with my son (7 YO) and our cat, Toto. While our backyard is not fenced, dogs are always leashed for outdoor time and walks. We have great sidewalks and a quiet area that’s ideal for daily exercise. Inside the home, I provide a calm and supervised environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s comfort level and always prioritize safety, clear communication with owners, and following specific care instructions. I’m also happy to schedule meet-and-greets beforehand to ensure everyone feels confident.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have hands on experience with all kinds, from small attached lap dogs to giant breeds. I currently help care for two dogs at home, including one with food aggression who requires separate feeding. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering care, and giving pets the attention and exercise they need. Your furry family member will be in good hands! I currently work at Target on an on-demand schedule, which gives me flexibility with pet care. My availability can vary week to week, but I’m happy to communicate my schedule in advance and work with owners to find times that fit. I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and boarding when my schedule allows, including weekends and many weekdays. My priority is making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow feeding, medication, walking, crate, and other care instructions. I live in an apartment without a yard, but pets staying with me will be taken outside regularly for potty breaks, walks, and fresh air. I can also stop by a client’s home before or after a Target shift when arranged ahead of time. I’ll treat your home and pet with respect, provide regular updates, and give your pet plenty of attention and affection. 🐾💕
“Joanne and her husband did a wonderful job watching Frankie! They provided updates throughout the day which I always appreciate. Would definitely recommend them to others and we will absolutely use them again in the future.”
“Kayla and her partner were wonderful with our dachshund. We needed doggie daycare while attending an event. Kayla was excellent to work with and took great care of our little baby. Highly recommend.”
About: Worked at a doggy daycare for 3years. I love playing and spoiling animals. I’m very loving. I have one dog and 4 cats of my own. I am able to separate the dog if needed. I’m flexible for people who can bring there animals to me. If you need me I’m there to serve you. I’m willing to work with you on your schedule I live in a quiet neighborhood. I will take them out as needed on leash, I have a large home for the animals to have their own space if needed. I’m home all day so I’ll be with them to make sure everything run smoothly

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Plainville
April is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter for our puppy, Otis. She is incredibly attentive, sends videos, keeps him engaged, and makes sure he was well cared for the entire time. It’s clear how much she genuinely loves and understands dogs. Otis also has the best time with her dog, Bailey, they are so sweet together, and it made us feel even more comfortable knowing he has such a great companion while we were away. Anyone would be lucky to have April care for their pet. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gives to Otis!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 541 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Plainville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Plainville commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OH ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 541 sitters in Plainville, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
