“Kaitlyn has been absolutely phenomenal. My pets warmed up to her immediately and absolutely adore her. She is extremely attentive and I feel very confident leaving my senior dog with her. She keeps me updated throughout her stay and sends pictures of my pets while I’m away. She will definitely be my first choice of pet sitter from now on!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and grew up caring for four dogs, which gave me a strong foundation in daily care, responsibility, and understanding different personalities. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends and family, caring for a wide range of animals—from bottle-feeding a rescued kitten to looking after large breeds like Great Pyrenees and Great Danes. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also volunteer with animal shelters when I can and enjoy helping care for stray animals in need. I’m currently beginning my education in the animal field and working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I’m gaining even more hands-on experience with group play, supervision, and daily care routines. I truly love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My availability as of now will change weekly/daily but I will do my best to update it needed and because it does fluctuate please feel free to ask. I will do the best I can do make time for your fur babies! (I also am flexible with pricing, please message me!) When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is safety, routine, and comfort. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and behavior preferences to keep pets on their normal schedule. I take time to build trust with each pet and allow them to warm up at their own pace. I’m mindful of home safety, always double-check doors, leashes, and routines to prevent any issues. I also respect clients’ homes and keep everything clean and cared for while I’m there. I provide updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away.

About: I have about 2 years of consistent hands-on experience caring for dogs as an adult, in addition to growing up around pets my whole life. I currently take care of my own two dogs, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and overall care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Plum Springs
Thank you! You never are sure who you’re getting, but Sara was 100% perfect. She took exceptional care of our boy, Jake. He’s not the most affectionate boy and she worked hard to gain his trust. She sent pictures and kept me updated the whole time she was here. We would recommend Sara and we will call her again.
Jessica did a wonderful job caring for my babies. I have multiple senior pets on medications, varying dietary needs and different levels of affection wanted. I have cats and a dog. She handled them all with care and meticulous attention. Regular updates were provided and she left my home as clean as when she arrived. 15 stars, highly recommended.
Laurie provided an excellent, peaceful space for our anxious pup to rest while we explored Mammoth Cave while on a cross country trip. Rio was relaxed when we picked him up, as a testament to Laurie’s calm demeanor. We recommend her strongly to others caring for anxious pups.

FAQs for House Sitting - Plum Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Plum Springs on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 110 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plum Springs. 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 Plum Springs 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 Plum Springs 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 Plum Springs 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
