About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets lots of love and attention. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work per diem at my job and go to school part-time so I have a lot of free time after school during the week and on weekends. I have a friendly dog and 2 friendly cats. I provide a safe and clean environment and will follow their normal routines, and give them plenty of attention and care.
“Thank you Emily for taking such good care of Nala while we were away for a day trip. Your visits were right on time and just what Nala needed to keep her happy for the day. I also appreciated the check ins and photos you sent throughout the day. She also brought in a package that was delivered while we were gone. Thanks so much!”

“Mimi seemed just fine when we got home last night. Quinn sent daily photos which were nice to see while we were away and missing her. We were grateful that she hadn't shredded the sofa or the carpet, or anything. And Quinn mucked out the litter box, which wasn't on my Rover list, so thanks for that! The house key was right where I asked that it be left. Besides being available over the holiday weekend, Quinn was very accommodating for times and for meet-and-greet. I hope she'll be available to sit for Mimi in the future.”

About: As a wildlife biologist, I’ve worked hands-on with animals, so I’m calm, observant, and quick to notice small changes in behavior or health. I’m comfortable giving medications and caring for senior, special-needs, anxious, and reactive dogs, plus puppies, cats, and small animals. I grew caring for German Shepherds and spent 11 years with my own cattle dog mix, Topo, through old age and health challenges. I send photos and daily reports, reinforce basic training, and love taking dogs on trail and beach adventures. I work as a scientist during the week, so pet care fits around that schedule. I’m most flexible on Thursdays, Fridays, weekends, and holidays, and I can often do early-morning walks before my day starts. I have some availability Monday through Wednesday near Mashpee. For overnight stays, house sitting, or longer vacations, I can arrange extra availability, so just ask about your dates. I can usually pick up and drop off, and I’ll confirm times with you ahead of each booking. In my home (boarding): Dogs are always supervised and on leash for potty breaks, since my yard isn’t fenced. They get daily walks and playtime, and can sleep in a crate or free roam, whichever they’re used to. I live with my husband and two young children, so boarding is best for dogs who are comfortable around kids, and I supervise all interactions. I’ll follow your feeding, medication, and routine instructions exactly. In your home (house sitting and drop-ins): I stick to your pet’s routine, keep your home secure, and lock up whenever I leave. My background as a wildlife biologist makes me careful and observant, so I’ll notice changes in appetite, energy, or behavior and tell you right away. You’ll get photos and a short update after every visit. For everyone: I’m happy to do a meet and greet first so you and your pet can see how we get along. If anything seems wrong, I’ll contact you immediately and follow your vet’s instructions.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Plympton is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $21 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 November 2026, there are 6,075 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Plympton. 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Plympton. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% 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 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.
