“Carolina was wonderful and really gave us peace of mind during our trip. She was excellent at communicating and giving updates to us and also left our home clean. She will definitely be rebooked by us in the future!”
“We are blown away by Nina and how well she cared for our pets! She was prompt when she came over to meet our fur babies and was very detailed oriented. This was our first time using Rover and have already booked Nina for our next two trips. She sent daily videos and updates, as well as did some brushing on the animals while we were gone. Our home was immaculate when we returned home from a busy day of travel and her personal touches are unparalleled. You should definitely book Nina, just not when I need her, lol.”
“My Bandit loves Aiden! He is great with dogs and so dependable. After staying with my dog for 10 days, he left the house in perfect condition. I will use him often and highly recommend him.”
“This is my second time using Sherry. As soon as she got to my house all of my babies were so excited and happy to see her. They absolutely love her!! She obviously treats them very well and sounds like she spoils them. I highly recommend her”
“Brittany did a great job with our two dogs and three cats. She sent pictures to us on a regular basis and stayed in contact with us. Our pets really liked her.”
About: I’ve grown up around many different breed of dogs, and many different kinds of animals. I have watched animals for family and friends for years, whether they’re puppies or senior. I figured it was time to extend my services as it’s something I really enjoy. I am very attentive and treat every animal like they’re my own! I am in my first trimester of pregnancy and recently had to step away from my job, so I am home all day, and always looking for something to do. This means I have all the time in the world to give your fur baby all of the love and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard and one little dog named Peanut, who just loves other animals! We go out in the yard for a bit every morning and after breakfast and then go for our morning walk around our very dog friendly neighborhood, and repeat again in the afternoon after dinner! There is also a large dog park that is typically unoccupied that Peanut loves to run around and play at!
About: As a child, my siblings and I raised dogs and cats at our country house. Therein, I spent a large portion of my childhood with animals, where I learned to respect them and appreciate how unique and loveable they can be. I am working part-time, which gives me plenty of time to either check in on your pets, walk them, or spend time with them. I love cats and dogs equally. I have three dogs at home, two of them are big dogs and one of them is small. The first two I mentioned, were rescued as puppies-and so I have a deep appreciation for all types of dogs and cats, despite their pasts. I also have a history with cats, the number of them I cannot say, but I love taking care of them too.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life and have a love for all creatures big and small. I’ve cared for animals as large as a horse and as small as a hamster. I’m a college student going to school Tuesday through Thursday. My weekends are open. I can be available most evenings if needed. I try to be very flexible. I enjoy walking animals so that they can get exercise and use the bathroom. When a pet is in the back yard, I keep my eyes on them.
About: I've taken care of many cats and dogs from my own, family and friends', fosters, animal shelters... the list goes on. I love animals. I have an apple head chihuahua (7 years old) and 2 GSD-Malinois puppies that are 5 months old. I'm the sitter that sends consistent pictures, updates, and pays 24/7 attention to your babies. I want to be the person that puts you at ease, as I know how it feels to be worried about leaving your babies. Hoping to find furry friends for my puppies too! EVERY. DAY. My older chihuahua is very low maintenance, but my GSD-Malinois puppies are extremely needy. We're very active, outside every 2 hours at least, tennis balls, tug-o-war, treat training, dog walks, and hug and kisses time. Depends on the age, but, first and foremost, is check the floor and keep my belongings out of reach. Give the pets space and time to adjust, offer some treats, and follow your pet's lead- both in my home or yours. Everything revolves around the baby.
About: Hi, I’m Ginger — born and raised in Texas with a heart for animals of all kinds! I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life and currently share my home with a few of my own, including goats, rabbits, dogs, and cats. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s truly my passion. I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including senior animals who need extra patience and care. I’m also comfortable administering medication and following special routines to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your babies and give them (and you!) the best experience possible. 🐾❤️ I’m lucky enough to work from home, so my schedule is super flexible — giving me plenty of time to love on and care for your pets! When I’m caring for pets in my home, they’ll have plenty of room to play and explore in my large fenced-in yard. If you prefer, we can also go for walks to keep their routine consistent — whatever makes your pet happiest! No matter what, they’ll always get plenty of love, attention, and care. If I’m staying at your home, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure everything is done just the way you prefer. Your pets will always be in safe, loving, and capable hands with me. 🐾
About: Hi there! I've been taking care of animals my entire life. Over the last several years I've gained some clientele and am looking to expand/build on that. I will love your pets as my own and take care of them as if they were my own. I do work a full time job but I work from home on Mondays & Friday’s. Feel free to reach out to ask questions so I can get you scheduled to help you take care of your pet. I don't currently sit in my own home as my pup is a senior citizen and can be a bit grumpy at times. I do however do overnights in my clients homes to take care of your furbabies.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters? My commitment to provide the best possible care for each and every pet that comes my way. I understand that each pet is unique and has different needs, and I take the time to get to know each one in order to provide the best possible care. I work from home so my eyes are always on. This makes early mornings and late evenings available Monday through Friday and all weekends open for more flexible hours. Let me take the work out of “pet care” so you can just CARE! I can come to you so your baby feels safe and knows their surroundings. Taking on the “work” part for you, like walking at 6am or staying in my clients home for the weekend while they enjoy time away! Enjoy your time w/your baby and I’ll do the rest!
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of pets with unique needs and personalities. My sister’s Bichon Frise, Stormy, has taught me how to handle grooming, daily walks, and maintaining a loving environment for smaller, high-energy breeds. My boyfriend’s cat, Kilowa, has given me experience in managing independent and playful pets, ensuring he’s well-fed, entertained, and his litter box is always clean. I’ve also cared for his Husky, Silver, who requires plenty of exercise, long walks, and patience for her energetic personality. These experiences have shaped me into a dedicated and adaptable pet caregiver who always prioritizes the well-being of the animals I care for I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to attend your animals needs. I have more time to also be at your care as well. In my home, I provide a clean, secure, and comfortable space tailored to each pet’s needs, including cozy resting areas, and constant supervision. I maintain their daily routines, from feeding schedules to exercise, ensuring they feel at home and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I follow detailed care instructions to replicate the pet’s normal environment. I treat every pet with love and attention as if they were my own.
“We have four dogos in our pack and that can be a lot for someone to handle. Christina has house sat for us several times and is fabulous! She always has clear communication and gives updates including pictures of your fur babies. Highly recommended!”
About: Ive been working with dogs for 15 years. Originally I was working with rescue dogs, and I’ve come to enjoy all big and small. I’m always up for a challenge. I offer many services that cater to you and your fur baby. I work most days from home, which is why I’m a great candidate for house sitting! I can spend most my day with fur babies if needed. I always communicate with parents about their babies behavior, any triggers I should be aware of for walks, and about their yard/fencing. My goal is to always provide a great experience for the pets in a safe environment.
“She was great. She checked in through the day, sent photos and videos each day, she communicated very well and I appreciate her time with them and taking care of our home as well for the week we were gone. Respectful of your home and dogs snd would recommend her to anyone. Appreciate her.”
“Jeanette took great care of our two puppies and our cat! She went above and beyond and we know our pets were in great hands. We would definitely have Jeanette back if we need a petsitter again!”
“I have used Amina several times and couldn’t be happier with her. She is wonderful with my animals, sends frequent pictures and updates, walks my pup and always leaves my home spotless. Thank you Amina for your kindness and wonderful care of my pets!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 949 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plantersville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Plantersville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Plantersville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Plantersville 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
