“Denise was AMAZING! She was so patient with my shy senior Nikita. The two of them bonded much quicker than I had anticipated and it made me so happy to know that my pup was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with Denise again as she’s become a member of Nikita’s circle! Thank you big time Denise - you are truly incredible.”
“Megan did a great job with our dogs. She acts professionallly by being timely, communicating well, and leaving the house in good order. We were at ease during our time away and would use her services again.”
“Lauren and Ian were fantastic! They walked and played with my dogs, and sent me daily updates. I could tell my dogs were very happy. They were very communicative and even did extras I did not ask for in cleaning up! I will 100% recommend them and will use them again!”
“I was very happy with Alex. She obviously took great care of my critters. Nahla was excited to go for a walk with me, and she didn’t want to go before! When we had our meet and greet, Nahla was enthralled with Alex and Simba came up and gave her a kiss! He only gives me kisses!!! That kind of clenched it for me. She sent a few photos and stayed in touch. I will use her again if she’ll have us.”
“Emily is fantastic! She took excellent care of our dogs and was the perfect houseguest. Our dogs were happy, well exercised, and well fed when we got home. She knows so much about dogs, she even gave me some great tips on training our puppy! 10/10 we will be asking Emily for help again with our dogs!”
“Nick was great! He sent a number of updates and a few pictures, which was really helpful. I always want to know that our sweet Mischa is being taken care of, and I have no question that Nick did a great job. And as an added bonus, he left the house even neater than he found it!”
“Ally was a great dog sitter. She took great care of Bernard and was very communicative. She send constant updates and photos of Bernard which made it easier for us to leave him behind knowing that he was well taken care of.”
“Megan was very professional during planning for dogsitting in our home. She took great care of our aging dog, including giving him medication 2x/day. Our dog seemed to be looking for Megan after we returned! We hope to book Megan again.”
“Oanh is an excellent pet sitter. My cat is very sensitive and has been through a lot, yet she handled him with so much care and patience. She followed every single instruction carefully and made sure he received all his medications exactly as directed. He truly loved her, which gave me so much peace of mind. She’s reliable, a great communicator, and updated me twice a day with detailed messages about him. I would absolutely trust her with Demitri again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I have cared for animals my whole life- from cats and dogs, to lizards and snails, and even horses! I love all of them and will give them all the attention they deserve. I am free weekends, evenings and nights mainly but can be very flexible. You just let me know what you need and I'll try to make it work. I do require advanced notice however. I am happy to care for pets in your home however is needed/desired during the day time or evenings. I do work most days so I cannot always guarantee a full day of availability but I can do several drop-ins a day!
“Ray did a great job! He communicated awesome, sent a lot of pictures while we were gone and my dogs loved him! He also was with them during the 4th of July fireworks keeping them calm. I will definitely be using him again!”
“Nichole is wonderful! Communication is top notch - lots of pictures and updates were so appreciated. The two goofballs loved her! Nichole administered medication to one of the dogs, followed feeding and supplement instructions perfectly and took great care of our two doggies. Highly recommended!”
“Miranda is a superstar and took care of my 3 dogs while I was away! She sent updates and photos throughout the day and took amazing care of my dogs and my house! I cant recommend her enough! All of my dogs are quirky and she handled them all! My dogs love her and I can’t wait to have her back here!”
About: I have two cats and grew up with many animals including dogs, bunnies, reptiles, insects, and fish. My cats have had numerous health issues and I’m comfortable administering medications or doing special care with tough babies! I also worked in an animal research lab where we managed care for farm animals around the clock. I am a graduate student, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Taking care of pets helps me take a break and helps you ensure your pet is getting what they need while you are gone! I have two cats at home, so I am not able to care for other cats, dogs, or pets in my home at this time unfortunately.
About: Hello! I’m Allison. I have an over whealming love for pets! I’ve grown up around dogs all my life and have dog sat many times for close relatives and/or friends, dogs as little to a beagle to a big old german Shepard. I pride myself in my love for animals and ability to connect with them. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your furry one with someone, so my goal is to provide the reassurance that your pup is in good hands(: I have professional experience working through animal shelters and provided dogs with daily meals, cleaning up after them, and providing medication. i work full time already but am looking for a side job to help pay for college. Feel free to ask any questions you might have or if you would like to know anything else about me(: I am currently focusing on school so I have a lot of free time outside of that. I would love nothing more to help you take care of your fur babies with my free time! I have many years experience with taking care of dogs so i’ve become well attuned to their physical and mental needs. I will go out of my way to provide the best situations for them.I have experience with high energy dogs (two grey hounds) and experience with younger/older dogs as well. I worked at a puppy store briefly where I administered medicine, food, and cleaned their cages hourly.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Plymouth Township is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Plymouth Township
Jessica house-sat for me and watched my dog, Atlas, for 9 days. I had never used a service like this before, so I was a bit concerned/nervous at first. Jessica eliminated any doubts that I was having immediately. She checked on him multiple times a day, for multiple hours a day, and kept me consistently updated on how he was doing with pictures and videos. I could see from the videos that my dog really loved spending time with her; I believe her extensive knowledge and background experience in animal care helps to endear her to all types of animals. She also kept my home in spotless condition; I believe it was actually cleaner when I got home than it was when I left! She made my trip that much better, knowing that my boy was in safe hands. Overall, I consider myself incredibly lucky to have found Jessica, and I strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for house-sitting services.
Maria was great! She took such good care of my two cats, and was great about their early morning feedings. They loved her, and even my shy boy warmed up to her. Maria gave me updates and lots of photos so I knew they were safe and sound, and took good care of my home as well. Would definitely recommend Maria and will be using her again!
Ferris was so happy to have Kelsey come and stay with him while we were out of town. He was loved on and made to feel special the whole time. Kelsey followed the directions we left and sent me regular photos and messages. Kelsey was super responsible and communicated great. We will definitely be having Kelsey look after Ferris again. He has a new buddy 😀
Alex took great care of my dog, Red. She met Red ahead of accepting the booking, asked all the right questions. Her in-home stay with Red was great. I received photos and updates and she really took the time to make Red feel comfortable with her. Will definitely be rebooking!

FAQs for House Sitting - Plymouth Township
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Plymouth Township on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,337 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plymouth Township. 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 Plymouth Township 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 Plymouth Township 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 Plymouth Township 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.

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.
