“Katie came in clutch for me and was able to check in on my girl when I had to work! I appreciate photos and the thorough review of their visit! So happy to have found another reliable sitter!”
“Alexis was so caring with our 2 attention craving felines. Our reluctant furry guy immediately bonded with Alexis instead of his usual hiding for strangers. Alexis was super with her visits, care, and feedback. We certainly will book her again the next time we make a trip. We heartily recommend Alexis!”
“Clara was amazing at making sure sky was well taken care of and stimulated every time she came over! She was patient when she first met him, and understanding of his needs because he has trouble being around new people but Clara had no issues with it and was able to find a way to work with him. If you have a fur baby or pet that needs special care and attention, Clara is the person to hire! Always took pictures and was respectful of the space. 10/10 would highly recommend!”
About: I have 2 family dogs of my own, and have dog sit for neighbors and family friends! I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I love going in longer or shorter walks, or just hanging out to keep your dog company! I currently work on a hybrid schedule, so I have a lot more availability on Thursdays and Fridays! Other than that, I love an evening walk any day of the week, and am mostly available on weekends! I live near a park, so your dog will have plenty of trees to sniff! While I do live in an apartment complex, there are plenty of pet owners in my area who are incredibly friendly!
“Couldn’t say how amazing Zach is! I’ve used him 2 times in the last two weeks, Bear loves him and I couldn’t be more appreciative of how caring he is with him and makes sure to update me with anything.”
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.
“Candace is caring and Muffin loved her! I was nervous to leave my 11 week old puppy for the first time, having Candace come gave me such peace of mind. Great communication, I’ll be doing this again, thank you Candace!”
“I met Alicia at a neighborhood garage sale a few months ago where I was thrilled to learn that she is an experienced pet sitter in our neighborhood. My neighbor was planning to cat & housesit for my family last week but had to cancel two days before our trip due to a family emergency. I had never used Rover before but felt at ease as soon as I (promptly) received a response from Alicia to confirm booking. She came in for a visit the next day to meet our 3 cats and receive instructions/key. Alicia was very thorough asking questions getting to know our cats and home, which was very appreciated. We booked 60-min drop-in visits for 7 days, receiving daily pics and videos of our pets getting some lovin’ in as well as a detailed summary of her visit . Upon one visit, Alicia discovered a hall-closet door open and sent me a text. She had photographed exterior doors (showing still locked) & main areas of our house (looking undisturbed) to help us ultimately determine it likely had not been fully shut when we left, allowing the cats to paw it open. It was great to have peace of mind knowing that our home and pets were in good hands. We’ll definitely book Alicia again!”
About: Hey there! I’m Danny, a hybrid professional living here in Plano. Since I work from home several days a week, my schedule is super flexible. Your pets will get plenty of attention, regular routine check-ins, and tons of photo updates so you never have to worry while you're away. I live in a quiet apartment that is completely dog-free, which makes it a perfect, low-stress spot for hosting cats or small pets who hate loud barking or busy houses. I’m naturally clean, incredibly organized, and very respectful of boundaries, so you can count on your home staying exactly how you left it during house sittings and drop-in visits. Whether it’s keeping up with precise feeding times, scooping the litter box, or going for fun walks around the neighborhood, I treat every pet like my own. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I structure my week so that pet care is never rushed or an afterthought. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can dedicate real, focused time to making sure your cats or dogs are completely comfortable, fed on time, and get plenty of one-on-one attention and play. Whether I'm staying at your place or checking in on your pets, keeping them safe and happy is always my main focus. I naturally have a calm, patient energy, which really helps shyer cats or anxious dogs relax around me. I’m incredibly strict about following your exact notes on feeding times, medications, and general routines so their day feels totally normal while you're away. If I'm watching your cats at my place, my apartment has a nice, quiet setup where they can comfortably explore and unwind without any loud dogs bothering them.
About: I am dog owner of a golden retriever. I love teaching him new tricks all the time. I have worked very closely with other trainers to train dogs so I have expirence training dogs. I love taking the dogs to the dog parks. I usually walk everyday. I spend about 20 minutes training him every day and he loves it. Training is another way of showing your dog you love them and you are paying attention to them. So they love it. I also grew with my parents that have a farm with alot of differnt animals. They own 6 Great Pyraneese , goats, chickens, cats, pigs, and I have been peacocks. I have helped my parents raised them and feed them.
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 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 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.
“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!”
“Zoila was easy to communicate with and always kept us updated on the status of our cats! She was very accommodating and had flexible hours which we appreciated! We felt comfortable right from the start!”
“Shara went above and beyond for my boy! She made sure he was happy, safe and well kept everyday for almost a month. We had a little health scare and she even took him to an appointment and gave him care while I was away. Very communicative as well. I recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted care giver for their pet.”

We are so grateful to Zachary for all the updates, pictures and responses to our texts. Tucker always looked so happy and even though Zachary has many clients, he always responded to my texts. Because this was our first time using Rover, I was a bit anxious. We had never let Tucker stay alone but we feel much better about doing it again when the need arises. Zachary is professional and responsible with our property and fur baby. He knows dogs very well and I would use him again. Thank you so much, you really put us at ease.
Sebnem was wonderful with my cat! He's a little shy, but warmed up to her right away, so I got plenty of pictures of my cat being pet, eating, and even videos of purring. Sebnem spent good time with him, following my instructions for food, giving him play time, and brushing him well. All in all I felt very comfortable knowing she was watching my cat while I was away.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Plano is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 7,931 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Plano. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , 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 Plano. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
