“Jeremy and Rui our great caretakers of our kitties. They were safe and sound for our weeklong vacation. Thank you so much for taking care of our babies and sending those wonderful pictures. We appreciate it.”

“I trust her with my dog and two kitties - that says it all! I can see in all the photos she sends that they love to see her when she cares for them! She even made sure to clean up messes the kitties made on the rug while I was traveling. Her honest and timely communication is very appreciated. Highly recommend Madeline!”


About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, and have always loved it, I’ve worked with dogs part time and have dogs of my own that are my whole world I used to work at a doggie day care and now I currently work part time and have plenty of time in the weeks to care for and watch your fur babies. Plenty of exercise and play time, along with potty breaks and making sure there fed and have water. Also cant forget of course tons or love and cuddle time
About: (PLEASE review my photos and read through my profile to ensure I’m a good fit for your dog, we want to keep everyone safe!) I offer boarding and daycare with pick-up and drop-off services Monday through Friday. With over 15 years of experience working with dogs, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs. I started by helping family and friends, then volunteered at a local shelter, and today, I work full-time as a dog walker and sitter — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I’m committed to going above and beyond to meet each dog’s individual needs, no matter how big or small. I want every dog in my care to live their best life! I know how important it is to maintain a dog’s routine and to never cut corners, especially when working on behavioral issues. I look forward to meeting your dog and supporting them on their journey! Safety and Fun Are My Priorities Over the years, I’ve learned a few key things that help keep the environment safe and fun for everyone: • I require a meet-and-greet before any boarding stay, which includes a day of daycare. This allows me to see if your dog is a good fit, gives them a chance to meet the other dogs, and helps them feel comfortable and familiar before their stay. • At mealtime, I feed all dogs individually to avoid food aggression and to ensure each dog stays on their specific diet. • For dogs requiring medication, I administer it privately and carefully, to ensure it’s properly taken and to prevent any accidental exposure to other dogs. • I do not allow toys, bones, or personal beds from home during a stay. This helps prevent any territorial behavior or conflicts. Rest assured, I have plenty of comfortable bedding, engaging toys, and safe chews to keep your pup happy and entertained while they’re here! I can’t wait to welcome your dog into my pack and help them thrive! Daily Schedule: • 6:30 a.m.: Wake-up/morning bathroom break • 8:00a.m -9:00a.m.: Breakfast •. 9:00 a.m.-Morning daycare pick-ups (Monday–Friday) • 10:30a.m. – 12:00 p.m.: Playtime in the yard, with breaks as needed • 12:00 p.m.: Lunch • 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.: Quiet time/rest • 2:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.: Afternoon playtime in the yard, with breaks as needed • 4:30 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.: Afternoon daycare drop-offs (Monday–Friday) • 6:00 p.m.: Evening bathroom break • 6:15 p.m.: Dinner • 7:15 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.: Evening play session • 8:00 p.m.: Relaxation and quiet time • 9:30–10:00 p.m.: Final bathroom break and bedtime I have three separate fenced-in yards to keep things fun and engaging for the dogs, giving them plenty of space to run, play, and explore. There are multiple crates available for individual feeding or for dogs who might be a little too curious and like to explore things they shouldn’t. I also have my yard treated for ticks and mosquitoes every month to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. And that’s just the beginning! I provide a wide variety of toys and enrichment activities to keep the dogs mentally and physically stimulated. We do sensory games, have food puzzles to challenge their minds, and even offer quiet, cozy spots for rest and relaxation. Whether your dog loves to play, learn, or just lounge in the sun, there’s something here for everyone to enjoy!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8. I had a neighborhood dog walking business and have always had a pet dog in my household. Along with watching friends animals (cats, dogs, exotic animals, birds, etc!. I currently have a one year old dog who’s name is Lala😊 I’ve also worked at a doggie daycare this past year where we focus on their wellbeing! I work full time as a doggie day care attendant and have a waitressing job but am flexible and open minded to what you and your dog may need:) I take care of them, go on walks, if the owners have preferences I continue those even while they are not there (in my home or their own). My goal is to make your furry companions day and provide a caring and loving environment.
“Alani was awesome with drop ins for our cat. We were very nervous leaving our cat home for the first time, but Alani helped ease our minds with great communication and pictures! Thank you again!”

“Mandey took good care of our cat and plants for an extended time that we were away. She gave pills to our cat, changed the litter box weekly, brought in mail, and aired out the apartment as needed. Mandey was very communicative and thorough. We’d absolutely ask her to take care of our cat again.”

About: I've cared for both Dogs and Cats for over 15 years including volunteer work, paid sitting, and personal pet care. I have a passion for making pets feel safe and comfortable in the absence of their owners. I work full-time, but available for early morning, midday, and post-work walks and care. I am available on most weekends, and can stay overnight if needed. I walk, feed, play with, and administer medication as needed for Dogs and Cats. I am patient with all pets, and easily accommodate any special treatment needs.
About: I volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am great with both dogs and cats. I grew up with my cat, Hepsiba, born before me who died when I was nearly 20 years of age. We were best friends before I knew what that was. Then at the age of 12 or so, my parents adopted 2 English cocker spaniels, brother and sister. Robbie and Flora. So I was taking care of three pets. Then I raised Bruce, a rescued black lab mix from August 2013 until 2025 with some breaks for the US Army. And I taught him very well; he passed in June 2025 but he will always be my companion at my side. For some time I carried him, 120 lbs, up and down flights of stairs. Sometimes from here to there, carefully, comfortably, gingerly. I have a background in psychology, and I’m a dog trainer and a bit of a behaviorist. I’ve taken care of pets for family members and friends. And did so professionally in the past prior to Rover, after friends got me into it, which I started in August 2025. I’m great with animals. After spending even just a short time with them we can often establish a connection or rapport, especially when training a younger pet (or caring for an older dog). I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, I could run with your dog, play with them, but mostly we’ll be doing what they want - within reason. I will basically be spending the entire time with your pets. We’ll wake up between five to eight in the morning, and we’ll go bed between eight and eleven at night. I’ll be up with them as they need and we’ll be in and out much more than is required. I am delicate and meticulous and believe in leaving no trace that I was there. I want my client after their time away from home and their animals to not be met with the mess that I could be leaving behind. I am committed to performing an act of cleaning based on the tools available.
About: I have been taking care of animals in some capacity for many years. Whether it has been taking care of my own pets, dog grooming, 4H, or as a vet tech, I have always had animals in my life.

I also have the ability to come to you. I have experience caring for elder pets, as well as administering medications as needed. I love all animals as if they are my own and can't wait to make some new animal friends. I am currently retired and have my days and nights available for your pets. I am in a quiet neighborhood for walks and also close to major highways to travel to you with a dependable car. I would follow any care instructions given, as well as providing the animal routine and attention. Food, exercise, potty breaks, and rest are given as instructed or needed. I would care for the animal like it was my own.

“Anna is our dog's favorite human other than us! She is so kind, so accommodating, and such a warm presence. I never worry when I leave my dogs with her, and they can't wait to see her again!”

About: What sets me apart is that I really take the time to get to know each dog and what makes them happiest. I’ve worked with everything from wiggly puppies who need a little help with training to older dogs who just want a slow, peaceful walk and some extra TLC. I’m super patient, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup wants to run, sniff, play, or just take it easy, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly. I have tons of free time, so your pet gets my full attention and flexibility. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a job it’s just a great part of my day. When I care for pets at your home, I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them. I stick to their usual feeding and walk times, give any meds they need, and just hang out to keep them company. I’m not perfect, but I’m always patient and caring, and I make sure to keep their space clean and safe. I’ll check in with you regularly so you know how they’re doing. If I’m watching pets at my place, I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax and plenty of attention. I’m pretty chill and try to keep things low-stress so they feel comfortable. Either way, I just want your pet to feel safe and cared for, even if I’m not perfect!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Plympton is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $22 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.

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.
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 Plympton 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!
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.
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
