About: I’ve been pet sitting for family members, since I was in high school. I am very patient and respectful of your pet’s boundaries. I can do all of the basics for pet care, such as feeding, walking and playtime. I am also comfortable with giving pet’s their medication. I’m a college student looking for a summer job, to help pay for my tuition and expenses! This will be a great stress reducer. I am very patient and respectful of an animals boundaries. Sometimes, pets don’t want to be bothered when meeting new people, and that’s fine!

Adrienne was great with my 2 dogs! They both took to her immediately and her communication was great about how the visit went. She also sent lots of pictures and I can see that my dogs were very comfortable with her. She also has experience with dogs with a more special needs because my older gal has cancer, and has had a major surgery and she was very attentive to all of that. I will be using her as often as I can!

About: My ambition is to give your dogs a vacation experience while you are on vacation! They will feel at home, safe, loved, spoiled and pampered. We only keep one family’s dogs at a time, so your babies will get the royal treatment! I look forward to serving you! I am a homeschool mom with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time for walks, playing and caring for your beloved fur baby. Plus, we will be focused on your pet alone, so they do not ever have to share tummy scratches! I have a designated room for your dogs. I have a fenced yard and a large walking path behind our home for them to explore.

About: I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets, especially through raising my own dog. I have a German Shepherd/Black Lab mix who I’ve raised on my own since he was 6 weeks old. I’ve been responsible for his training, exercise, feeding, and everyday care throughout his life. I also previously worked as a Veterinary Technician Assistant, where I gained hands-on experience caring for animals and became familiar with handling pets in a professional veterinary setting. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of responsible pet care, animal behavior, and the importance of providing pets with patience, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’ve also regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets when they’re away, whether that means taking them on walks, stopping by to feed and check on them, or simply giving them some extra attention and companionship. These experiences have helped me become comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I truly enjoy making sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. My schedule may show limited availability, but I’m always open to discussing dates that aren’t currently shown on my calendar! I work full-time during the week and typically get off around 3:30 PM, so my availability can vary depending on the service and care your pup needs. I’m generally more flexible on weekends, but I’m happy to discuss different dates and see what may work for both of us. Because I work full-time and am also completing my master’s degree through an online program, I want to make sure I’m able to provide your pup with the full care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I’d rather make sure a booking is a good fit for my schedule so that I can give your pet the time and care they need while you’re away. I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable person who absolutely loves spending time with animals. I enjoy giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and companionship while their owners are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I take their safety, comfort, and routine seriously. I’ll make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping you updated throughout their stay. Whether your pup is energetic and loves to play, enjoys going on walks, or is happiest curled up getting some extra love, I’d be excited to spend time with them! I provide attentive, loving care based on each pet’s individual routine and needs. For weekend overnight sitting, I’m happy to stay in your home and keep your pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their normal feeding, walking, and bedtime routines. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and care before I leave. I’ll always follow your instructions closely and treat your pets like my own. I also love sending lots of pictures and videos throughout my visit or stay so you can see how your pets are doing and have peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I have grown up with animals and currently have two dogs, Charlie and Chelsea! I grew up wanting to be a vet, which resulted in me learning all that I could about animals. I have so much love for them and would have a hundred of my own if I could! I am very responsible and respectful of what owners do and don’t want their pets to do. I have had both small and large dogs of my own throughout my life, so I am comfortable with all sizes and breeds. I work from home most days and have a flexible schedule. I love to get out and be active as much as I can during my week! I also love to relax, so an animal who just needs some company is great too. I have a fenced in yard at home and two friendly dogs (a Lab and a Border Collie Mix). They love to be outside and play.

We had a wonderful experience with Izzy during a drop in visit with our dog, Finn. She was extremely communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and kept us updated the whole time. Since we were from out of town, she even shared great local recommendations for places to eat and things to do nearby. Her thoughtfulness made everything so much easier, and we’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, kind pet care.

About: I bring over 50 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, from tiny puppies and kittens to seniors with complex medical needs. I’m also the co-founder of a dog rescue foundation that has helped save and rehome more than 750 dogs, so I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities—shy, anxious, reactive, playful, or special-needs. I have real-life experience caring for pets with heart, kidney, gallbladder and other chronic conditions, as well as pregnant moms and newborn litters. I’m confident with medications, special diets, post-surgery care, and monitoring warning signs that may require a vet visit. I’m patient, calm, and very observant, but also loving and fun. I adjust my style to each pet: gentle and slow for seniors or nervous pets, more active and playful for puppies and high-energy dogs. My goal is always the same: that your pet feels safe, understood, and truly cared for, not just “watched.” Pet care is at the center of my daily life. I currently work from my home office, which means I’m able to be with your pet day and night. I organize my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications or special routines your dog or cat may need. Because I’m at home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone, and I can give them frequent check-ins, cuddles, and supervision. Whether it’s a senior dog who needs calm, consistent care or an energetic pup who needs activity and attention, I’m able to adjust my day to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fenced patio where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time, and I combine that with regular walks based on their age, energy level, and any medical needs. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedule, medications, playtime, and quiet time—so they feel secure and at ease. In a client’s home, I respect your space and your rules. I carefully follow your instructions about feeding, walks, crate use (if any), furniture rules, and bedtime routines. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and condition, whether they need slow, gentle care or more active engagement. My priority is always safety, comfort, and calm, loving supervision, adapted to what your dog or cat needs.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life and in college I looked after my roommates' and friends dogs of all sizes and temperaments ranging from pomeranians to german shepherds. I've also housesat pets for extended periods of time. I'm currently freelancing, so I have ample time to look after and entertain your pets! I'm available on weekdays to housesit from 8am to 6pm! On the weekends, I can walk your pets or even take them out for a couple of hours weather permitting. I will ensure that your pet is taken care of just like how you would care for them! I am very proactive regarding communication, both positive and negative, and I make sure to ask clarifying questions if I have any doubts to ensure I understand the pet's needs and requirements! I live in the suburbs so my environment is very quiet, however I do not have a fenced backyard so I would prefer not to host any pets unless they are mostly indoor animals.

About: First I would like to mention that I own a pup myself, her name is Honey and she’s 3 and a half years old! She gets along well with other pets and I am always contemplating if I should get a second dog. I love all pets no matter the size or breed. I often watch my friends’ dogs when they are out of town. I live in a great location where I can take them out to the trails across my apartment and everyday after work I take my dog to a nearby park to get her energy out! I also work from home and if I ever need to go into the office I am two minutes away! I have a work from home job! I only go into the office one week every month and I live 2 minutes away from my office that I would walk home and take the dogs out if I decide to take any jobs that in-office week. On a typical day I get up at 4 am and I’ll take the dogs out before I head to the gym and then again when I get back before I start my work. Though if there is a need for a dog to go outside I’m able to leave my desk at any time to take them out. I have a small fur baby who loves other dogs! I will also be home all day to care and play with your pet, we also have plenty of toys here.

About: I've been around all kinds of animals since I was a kid. I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, birds, hamsters, rabbits and even ducks. Besides the family pets, I had my own dog since he was 4 months and passed at 13 years, my own cat who was the feral barn cat turned domesticated & living with me until she passed at about 14 years and my own horse I had since I was 10 until he passed at almost 39 years old. I have been around all kinds of breeds and ages of dogs, all sizes, and even volunteered at a wolf sanctuary when I lived in NH. Animals are my love and passion. I work from home so I can be available anytime and be home with your fur babies all day. My schedule is flexible so I am readily available anytime. I know each pet is uniquely individual and you know your fur babies best. I follow all instructions explicitly as you set them and give daily updates with pictures. I know how hard it is leaving your pets home while you travel.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Plano on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 7,815 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Plano. 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 Plano 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.

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 Plano 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Plano with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
