About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young. Offering to pet sit for neighbors and friends. Since 18 I have always had fur babies of my own. I have experience with puppies and older pets who have medical needs. I am a full-time doctoral student with classes twice a week. I am only on campus for four hours at a given time so I will be able to give frequent potty breaks. This is supplemental income while I study so I have no other commitments outside of school. This allows me to devote a ton of time to your fur baby. I always do a meet and greet with animals. I want the owner to feel comfortable but most importantly your pet's comfort is just as important. In my client's home I always ask what their routines are because I do not want to disrupt their fur baby's routine

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: With my experience of being a previous pet owner I understand that dogs need an immense amount of attention and love.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Plano
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!
Marshall took such wonderful care of Cannoli during our most recent trip! I was very anxious to leave my (fur) child, but he sent plenty of photos (and always right on time). She’s usually a shy girl but she warmed up to him so quickly, he must be a pet whisperer. He also was so kind as to bring some packages for received inside. I could not recommend more! :)
Kennedy has been absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She’s incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the animals she’s looking after. We always feel at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!
Jonathan is truly the best dog sitter I’ve ever had for Ranger. I had to leave town unexpectedly, and he went above and beyond in every way. He followed Ranger’s schedule perfectly while adding thoughtful touches that kept him happy, active, and loved the entire time. I had complete peace of mind knowing Ranger was in such great hands. What really impressed me is that Jonathan is amazing with large dogs—Ranger used to pull on walks, and now he’s noticeably better. It felt like I had a dog sitter and a trainer in one. This experience was on a completely different level than any pet sitter I’ve used before. I won’t leave town again without checking Jonathan’s availability first. If I could give more than 10 stars, I would!

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.

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 .

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.
