“Kimberly took amazing care of our 2 dogs while we were away for 3 days. She sent pictures and updates daily. The dogs loved being with her and our house was very clean when we got home. I would highly recommend her.”
“Sarah did a wonderful job with our five year old Boston Terrier. It was the first time we’ve left him with someone and were nervous how he’d react. Sarah did an outstanding job keeping with his schedule and handling his anxiety (and ours). Before staying she visited twice to get everyone comfortable and learn about our dogs’ specific needs and behaviors. During her stay she sent a lot of updates and photos and even indulged us with some FaceTime calls to say hello. By the end of day 1 they were fast friends. She also left the house spotless. I’m so pleased we found Sarah and would call her again to watch out furbaby.”
“Alanna was amazing! She showed great care and concern for all our our animals, and left our house looking better than it did before we left! She kept us updated and left a detailed note afterwards. We will definitely book her again!”
“Holly is so great!! She responds quickly, is reliable, responsible and on time. She left my house immaculate and really bonded with my cat (who hates people) and my dog. Highly recommend!! 💫”
“Leslie went above and beyond caring for moose for a week. She helped in numerous ways to make sure our couch was protected from our over eager puppy and even bought him some new toys! She took care of our house well and was so generously flexible when our ac broke mid trip. She clearly loves dogs and I would highly recommend booking her for sitting!!”
About: I’ve taken care of my family dog until he passed. He was 16yrs old. I also take care of my sisters dog. He is a Husky/ German Shepard mix. My dog recently passed and I miss walking him. His daily walks were 7am and 6:30pm. I’m also opened to walking your dog on weekends. I have a huge fenced yard and a one floor home to reduce stair climbing for senior dogs. I have a car seat for small dogs and do enjoy taking them on DQ runs with the owners permission.
“Koda did an amazing job!!! We got pictures every night and our pups looked so happy. They told us they had a fabulous time and can't wait to hang out with their new friend again. Our house was tip top when we got home. I would definitely recommend Koda!”
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, crate routines, and keeping pets company. I’m especially patient with puppies and energetic pets, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially during the daytime, evenings, and weekends depending on my class schedule. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, stay aware of my surroundings during walks, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I treat every home and pet with the same respect I would want for my own.
“Katy was amazing during her extended stay with our dog Josie. She sent regular pictures and updates and I can tell Josie was happy with her. Cant say enough about how great it was to have Katy watching Josie in our home. Would bring her back anytime!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since age 10. We’ve always had at least 2 dogs of our own and have fostered consistently as well. I spend my free time volunteering at the Aurora Animal Shelter and feel comfotable working with dogs of all sizes! I also house/dog sit frequently for multiple people in the area I’m currently in college but I only have class three days a week. I live at home so my I am able to be very flexible with my schedule. I have a large amount of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have grown up around animals and am very comfortable caring for them.
“The highest number of stars we could give Christine is 5 but she deserves many more. We planned a last-minute trip and our usual dog/house sitters weren't available. We went to Rover and found Christine. We met with her prior to our trip and instantly knew that our pups would be in the perfect hands with Christine. She went above and beyond any expectations we had. She kept in close contact with us and cared for our Emma and Fergus like they were her own. We rescued Fergus a year ago and, other than my husband and me, he is afraid of humans. Christine is the first "stranger" to be able to pet him which is huge progress in getting Fergus to overcome his fear. The day we left, Christine sent us a video of Emma and Fergus running and playing in our yard, so we knew that they had adjusted quickly. It didn't take long for them to warm up to Christine! Christine will always be our go-to when we go out of town. We completely trust her with our fur-babies and in our home.”
“Imani did an amazing job keeping us updated and sending pictures to ease the anxiety of being away from our pup for the first time. Not only that, she also made herself available to us last minute with less than 24 hour notice which we appreciated.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs, and I took a job as a kennel attendant at a rescue, but unfortunately they closed their brick and mortar location to go back to a foster based rescue. I have gained experience working with many types of dogs. From large and small breeds, to selective dogs, to puppies, and my personal favorite, special needs and senior babies. I currently lost my job at a dog rescue due to the building closing down to focus on a foster based rescue, so my availability at this moment is open I can provide love, exercise and enrichment as well as discipline, crating, and spoiling your dog. Unfortunately I cannot have dogs in my home so I would need to come to you.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages for more than 9 years, pets of my neighbors, friends and my own pets, I consider that they need the best care in the world as they give everything for us being our companions on this journey that is life, talking a little about my experience, I have taken care of small and large pets to bathe and feed them and walk them, I have training in the face of any altercation on the street. Being something that I like to do since before coming to this country is something that I want to dedicate myself to for an indeterminate time. I have a fenced yard and at the moment I don't have small children, so all the attention will be focused on pets for as long as they need it.
About: At home, I have 4 dogs and I have always had many dogs at my house. Because I recently had to move back home, I cannot have dogs overstay at my house for that reason. However, I am more than willing to walk/run with your dog, stop by the house when the dog(s) need company such as playing, eating, walking, potty breaks, and any other special needs. Dogs are just like people too, and they should be treated as such! I always treat every single dog as if they were my own. My dogs are my babies. As I mentioned, I have 4 dogs at home and one of my Australian Sheppards is half blind and fully deaf. She has always needed extra support and attention because of her needs and I have no problem with deaf or blind dogs.
About: Hello!

“I recommend Marisol and would give 6 stars if I could. She stayed in our home and watched our large anxious dog over July 4th when there were massive storms. I did not have to worry one bit about our dog's nerves, as she did everything possible to comfort him when he was scared (stormed for days!). She followed all of my instructions beautifully, gave detailed updates, and left my house clean and tidy. Marisol exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely use her again and refer her to my friends and family!”
“Jennifer was FANTASTIC! She actually spent time hanging out with my dogs when house sitting. Jennifer even came back over to check on dogs when flight got in late. I will use her again! Thank you!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,100 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plattville. 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 Plattville 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 Plattville 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.
Tip: 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 Plattville 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.
