“Emma took great care of my two cats while I was away! She was reliable and caring, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely have her watch them again 😊”
“Sophia is great and we had a wonderful experience! Our dog Peep is sweet but has her quirks so finding the right person was important. Sophia is patient, attentive, and understood our pup. Communication was excellent throughout the stay and we loved receiving the updates and pictures. It was obvious she was well cared for and loved! Will absolutely book with her again 🐶☺️”
“Jennifer went above and beyond taking care of our cats. She is responsive and professional, and she gave extra love to our two cats. We couldn't recommend her enough!”
“Rola did a fantastic job with our two dogs during her drop-in visit. She was on time, friendly, and made sure both pups were cared for and happy. I I appreciated her attention to detail and the updates she provided. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful pet care!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with dogs in my extended family and have always been one of the people helping care for them, so being around different breeds, personalities, and energy levels has always felt very natural to me. In the last several years, that experience has grown through having dogs of my own and dog sitting through Rover. I’ve now cared for 40+ dogs, from young puppies to seniors and dogs with special needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, activity level, feeding schedule, medications, and whatever helps them feel most comfortable away from home. Our home is very dog-friendly. We have a large fenced yard with plenty of room to play, and we’re within walking distance of a park and dog park. I work from home Monday through Friday and am home most weekends, so dogs get lots of attention, supervision, outdoor time, and opportunities to settle in and feel like part of the household. We lost our sweet girl Stella in December 2025, and we now have Ellie and Pepper. Ellie is very used to having visiting dogs around, and Pepper is a playful younger pup who loves having canine company. Between them, visiting dogs usually have built-in buddies while they’re here. I genuinely love having dogs around and want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and at home while their people are away. Routine I work from home Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM, so Ellie isn’t left alone during the day. I’m also home and available most weekends. Our days follow a consistent routine: Ellie goes out first thing between 6:30 and 7 AM, then eats breakfast. In the winter, walks are weather-permitting, so most outdoor time is in the yard with plenty of supervised play. Dinner is around 6 PM and bedtime is around 9 PM. Visiting dogs fit right into this rhythm, with regular outdoor breaks, playtime, and lots of company throughout the day. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where dogs can relax and play. My home has a fenced yard for outdoor time, and I supervise dogs throughout the day since I work from home. I make sure all dogs get plenty of attention, follow any special care instructions, and have an stress-free stay.
“I highly recommend Matthew to watch your pet. He did an amazing job caring for our elderly Maltese. He communicated very well and ensured our little dog was well taken care of. Would definitely book again with him.”
About: Experienced, dog-loving family with hamster and goldfish —no dogs of our own—looking to provide devoted and compassionate care. Your pup gets our full attention, snuggles, playtime and endless affection. Can offer long walks or runs and experience with Senior dogs & medications. Needing a cat sitter? We are happy to drop in, feed your cat, clean the litter box, and offer gentle affection. If your cat enjoys the company of children, our gentle, cat-loving kids are happy to tag along and share extra cuddles and love. Your feline’s comfort and happiness are our top priority! We're home most weekends, and during the week there's typically at least one adult available Monday through Friday to give your pet care and attention. Weekday evenings are available for longer walks and play with lots of activity time on weekends! We don’t have a fenced yard, so your dog will always be safely leashed or supervised on a tie-out if they need more space to take care of business. Whether your pup prefers a crate or a cozy spot to curl up, we make sure they feel at home. Our family includes young children, so dogs boarding with us should be comfortable around kids. While your family enjoys their trip, we’ll give your dog all the love, care, and snuggles they deserve.
“Alexis was great with my Charlie boy! I was in a pinch and needed a sitter last minute and she saved the day! I could tell from the photos she sent me that Charlie was excited to see her and spend time with her everytime she went to let him out, and her playing with him in the backyard and taking him for walks goes a long way towards making him feel happy when he’s got a little separation anxiety going on. I would absolutely recommend her, and would use her again in the future when I need a helping hand! 🐾”

“Peep had the best time with Gabby! 🐾 She did such a great job caring for my quirky little girl, who needs a bit of extra attention. Gabby was wonderful about communicating, sending updates, and sharing pictures while I was away, which gave me such peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
About: We have had dogs our entire lives. We have been fostering for Underdog Rescue for the past nine years and have experience with both little puppies and senior dogs. We have a house in the Minnetonka/Hopkins area and have a large fenced in backyard that your dog would enjoy! We always hate being away from our dogs, so we know how important their care is while you're away! I currently work from home, so I’ll be able to give your pups plenty of attention throughout the day with plenty of potty breaks and playtime in the backyard yard. We have a large, fenced-in backyard and currently have three small dogs, two senior Shih Tzus and a 1 year old Pekingese. We also foster dogs through Underdog Rescue, and two of our dogs are foster fails! 🐶
“Peggy went above and beyond on taking care of my new 2 month old puppy, Coco. Coco is very needy and needs extra attentionand Peggy was able to use her experience as a dog owner to help with Coco. She also was willing to go and pick up the keys from work which I appreciated a lot as I live in an apartment. I will definitely recommend her! She’s super nice!”
“Briana is truly one of a kind! It’s hard to find someone you can trust completely with your pets, but from the moment we met her, we knew our puppy was in wonderful hands. She is so kind, dependable, and genuinely caring. She treats our pup like he is her own. Knowing he is happy, loved, and well cared for while we’re away gives us such peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for Briana and feel so lucky to have found her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Andy did an awesome job checking in our senior kitty. Instructions were followed, our home was left clean, and Andy took the time to get to know our cat, provide some additional treats, and get some play time in. We really appreciated the communication and the photos!”
“Ashley was very accommodating was able to book last minute and squeeze me in and still meet my kiddos needs. Communicative and fast response to any questions or concerns I had. Thanks”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been a dedicated dog owner for over 8 years. For the past 3 years, I’ve also fostered pups, giving me experience with a wide range of temperaments and styles. I’m comfortable with everything from high energy personalities to shy or anxious dogs. I’m comfortable with senior dogs (my last pup was 18!), puppies and everything in between. At this time, I’m focusing on small and medium sized dogs so they will be the best match for my own dog and I can provide the best care possible. I work full time from home and am available to board in my house anytime for most lengths of time. Lots of time to play with your pup! Right now, I’m open to hosting small and medium pups—as they are the best matches for my own dog. My dog, Elliot, loves to go for walks (weather permitting) and we’d love for your pup to tag along! If the weather is bad, my yard is perfect for zoomies, ball/toy chasing, neighbor watching and basking in the sun. I have my own small pup who is energetic and loves to play, but isn’t pushy. I work from home so we are together all the time! We walk often—in the morning, at lunch and in evenings. I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks with lots of toys and enrichment. I am home most of the time, but would contain (kennel or pen if needed) when I leave and I’m also open to pups that aren’t kenneled but safe to leave out (I’d put away my own dog).

Emily took excellent care of our cats while we were away for 10 days. The boys loved spending time with her and playing! Our girl Mikasa is skittish around new people and took a few days to warm up, but Emily was very patient with her and won her over. Emily was on top of all their care and we felt at ease while we were away. Definitely will rebook for future trips!
Briana is truly one of a kind! It’s hard to find someone you can trust completely with your pets, but from the moment we met her, we knew our puppy was in wonderful hands. She is so kind, dependable, and genuinely caring. She treats our pup like he is her own. Knowing he is happy, loved, and well cared for while we’re away gives us such peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for Briana and feel so lucky to have found her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!
Gabby was wonderful. Our cat was winding around her feet to greet her even at the meet and greet. The check-ins and pictures gave us peace of mind while we were traveling. We came home to a cat who was happy to see us, instead of getting the cold shoulder for two days.
Tori was awesome! She instinctively knew how to make my cat comfortable with her, and he was happy to play and snuggle when she visited. Tori provided pictures and messages with each visit, and she always left the house secure when she finished her visit. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future!
Debdatta was fantastic during her drop-in visits with our dog, Summer. She took great care of her, making sure she was fed, walked, and given plenty of attention. It was clear from her updates and communication that she genuinely cared about Summer’s well-being. We felt completely at ease knowing Summer was in such good hands. I highly recommend Debdatta to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate caregiver, and we will definitely be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Plymouth is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 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 5,823 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Plymouth. 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 Plymouth. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
