“Vita was kind enough to agree to care for our pups at the last minute when we had to leave town for a family funeral. She took excellent care of them and kept us updated. She even got the skittish one to warm up to her. We will definitely be seeking her services again in the future.”
“Sarah S. was fantastic! She showed up on time and immediately held our toy poodle mix who gravitated to her right away. She listened to his care instructions and did what we asked while we were gone. When I would text her to check on him, she quickly replied also sending photos of him. He stresses very easily but he didn't feel a moment of stress with Sarah! If we ever need a pet sitter again we won't hesitate to contact her.”
About: Growing up with many animals, including dogs in my home, as well as taking multiple animal education courses in college, has given me the skills to be able to give your pet a safe and fun experience in my hands. I have so much love for animals and I would love to be able to take care of your pets while giving you the reassurance that they’re in good hands. I am currently only focusing on training for basketball this summer, so I am very flexible and will have lots of time to take care of your pets. I have a big fenced in yard where my dogs have the freedom to run around and have fun outside. This could be a space where your dogs play as well if needed. I also have a crate if necessary, and I make sure to walk and play with my pets frequently, so I will definitely do the same with yours.
About: Throughout my life, my family has owned 4 dogs, and many of my friends own dogs that I spend a lot of time with. I currently have two dogs, as well as a few bonus neighborhood dogs, that I love both playing and relaxing with. I often am responsible for feeding, letting out, and cleaning up after my family dogs. I am a recent college graduate with no set job or schedule yet, so I'm very flexible! Presently, most of my work is gig work, so it is very easy for me to run by your house on my way to or from those gigs. I aim to give your pet as much of a sense of normalcy as I can! Whether they like to wrestle outside or sit together in silence, I want to give them whatever they need in the moment. I like to leave a space how I found it, so if they need any feeding or make any messes, I will clean up being myself or them.
About: My goal is to gain more hands-on experience caring for large dogs. I've been around large breeds throughout my life, as many of my friends and family have owned them. I'm already comfortable interacting with bigger dogs and have experience walking, feeding, and helping care for them. I'm excited to build on that experience and become an even more confident and knowledgeable caregiver. I’m currently working part time in Little Rock, and I’m also a full time online college student. My schedule will be flexible enough for me to look after your dog for a day or two! When I’m with your dog, they are my top priority. I will keep an eye on them and keep them company at all times, and of course give them all the love they deserve.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 3 years now, and I truly love what I do! I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs and cats, and I love getting to know each pet’s personality and what makes them happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I’ve had so many wonderful clients over the years and have many references from people who have trusted me with their pets. I also have a Facebook page for my pet-sitting business. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I’m currently have a full time job (Monday-Friday 8am - 4pm, so my schedule is fairly flexible mainly in the afternoon. I have plenty of time to give your pets attention, play with them, and make sure they’re well cared for. I’m available most weekends and can work with different schedules when needed. I have two friendly dogs who love having other dogs around and can make great company for your pup. My dogs are also crate trained, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and crate them if needed. I live in a safe neighborhood that’s great for taking walks, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while they’re with me.
About: I took care of my boys for just over 14 years, twin Shih Tzu’s, they were the loves of my life. They taught me more patience and much more research especially when they became seniors and required medications. After their passing I’ve been honored to take care of others fur babies, 3 goldens + 1 king cavelier and another’s cat. I loved every minute of spending time, walking, playing and even just sitting with them for company. I’m currently working part time and am flexible to help out with your fur babies whether you need someone to stop by for a few hours or need someone to watch them overnight. I will, with your instructions, care for your pet(s) just as you would. Currently I am unable to care for them in my own home.
“Raven was wonderful! When she came for a “meet and greet”, 3 out of 4 of our cats immediately came out to see her, which is unusual with strangers. During our trip, Raven took great care of our dog and cats. She communicated frequently and sent some photos, too. I definitely recommend her and will absolutely book her again!”
About: I’ve loved animals since before I could remember! I grew up in Scott on land with dogs, cats, horses, goats, birds, and fish! Now I have a border collie husky mix, he’s 4 years old. :) My work schedule differs every week so message me to see my availability. I consistently work from 7-4 Monday through Friday and the rest of the time will change! I have a very large unfenced yard where there is plenty of space for dogs to be themselves. I have plenty of toys that I could bring with me or have at my house for boarding. I could crate your dog if needed (not required at all).
About: I took a break for awhile, but I’m back now 🥰👋 To know me is to love animals. I truly believe my purpose on this planet is to save animals. I want to help my friends, community, and our babies by extending my arms and opening my home to you.

I truly believe animals are so smart and if you spend the time with them and make them feel included, we would be amazed at the love and company they bring into our hearts. I work for a law firm but my schedule is very flexible. I can work around your schedule and able to work from home. Please let me know how I can accommodate.

FAQs for House Sitting - Plumerville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 162 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plumerville. 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 Plumerville 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 Plumerville 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 Plumerville 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
