“Hannah did an outstanding job watching my dogs at my home for a couple nights. Her communication and updates throughout her stay were outstanding. She went up and beyond to make sure the house was in better shape than when it was left. My dog’s really enjoyed her. I would definitely recommend Hannah.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my home since I was 9 years old, from 2 month old puppies to senior dogs, and taking care of them has been the best part of my day! I like to focus on mental stimulation as well as physical with dogs so they have a sound mind and body. I’m familiar with crate training, and puppy care, including a solid understanding of training the basics. I’m used to energetic and fast-paced dogs but I love my older and more mellow dogs as well! I’ve pet sat my fair share of cats and feel comfortable with them too. My Australian shepherd and I just moved out to Lexington recently, but I’m excited to offer my services now including recurring dog walking :) let me know if you have any questions for me! I am a flight student so that is my biggest time commitment which is 4 hours 3-4x a week. I know my schedule far out and can adjust my other responsibilities such as coursework and caring for my own dog and any other that may be in my care. I am never gone for too long and making sure the dogs are doing well is a priority that’s extremely important to me. If there is a yard, that will be utilized to the fullest, but I will take full advantage of what the neighborhood has to offer for fun walks/providing sufficient daily stimulation for the dog. I’m always respectful of the home and the routine the dog had prior to their person being gone. I’m super communicative, especially if things happen that are out of the ordinary, but also when things are normal so you’ll won’t have to wonder too much how your baby is doing!

About: I grew up on a farm most of my life. So Ive helped raise all kinds of dogs big and small. I always loved taking them for walks amd playing fetch with them! I understand how important a pet is and hope i get to spend some time with yours I currently work full time mon - friday from 830 am to 5 pm but i have no problem popping and taking care of your pet during my lunch break or when i get off. On weekends im free anytime. I do my best to follow all your pets normal routine and give it all the love it deserves. I have no problem traveling to your house or adjusting mine to do so. If your pet needs to be fed at certain times or given medicine at certain times you can rest assured it is done. I also love to provide physical activity for the pet lime going for a walk or taking them to a park to play fetch and the like.

Knowing Sadie was being looked after by Casey provided such a wonderful trip to see our family. I can’t wait to have Casey come back for our next trip.”

About: Dog Walking: Can be over thirty minutes (based on your preference), but additional charges may apply. I love taking care of all dogs and cats! Both of us could use the exercise anyways, and they will come home as happy as ever! House Sitting: Available for more than one night. Your pet will get my undivided attention the whole time I'm there (Plant care services complimentary). I am a working sitter with my own pup, so if overnights stays are your preference, then I may not be your flavor, and that’s okay! Drop-In Visits: Available for more than thirty minutes (additional charges may apply). Your pet will get lots of love and pets while you're away! I can do these around my work schedule! It varies so please feel free to inquire. About Me: - 25 years old - Licensed Mental Health Therapist - B.S in Psychology, M.S. in Clinical Mental Health - Very neat and clean. - Reliable! - Doing this for fun, and the other owners. - Will answer any questions you may have! - Really just trying to pay down my student loans :) I work around a varied schedule in Mt. Sterling, KY, Tues-Sat. It varies with my clients, so check in to see if I can work you in!! I do have my own doggy, but I can always work yours into my schedule as well! Overnight stays are not preferred. This will depend on my husbands schedule, as he is gone 24hrs every third day (first responder). Please please please keep in mind that I am a working sitter, so I will not be available to stay 24/7. If that’s what you prefer, than I’m not the best fit for your needs, and thats okay! If your dog cannot do potty breaks for more than 4 hours in between, I’m not the best fit! While I’m at the house, your pet will have my undivided attention and I’d be happy to give any special care needed. I do adore dogs and hope to give back any way I can to other pet owners in need. I know we can’t always turn to friends/family with our pets, but you still want them to be treated as such! This is just a fun way for me to help pay my student loans down :) I care for pets based on your needs/preferences. Depending on the instructions you give me! We love play time and walks :). I will not do anything that is not approved or pre-described.

About: I have over 10 years of experience working with my own and others' dogs, including 5 years of professional experience at a doggy daycare and a local rescue. I've cared for dogs of every age, breed, and temperament — including dogs other sitters have called aggressive. My own reactive lab/weimaraner mix taught me to read body language and keep dogs comfortable in any situation, and I'm now a professional dog trainer. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, your dog's routine gets followed exactly and they're treated like my own. Open and flexible mornings, evenings, and weekends, holidays all work. Recurring drop ins, walks and overnight stays welcome. Last minute requests okay with quick confirmation. I will help to maintain the boundaries you have set for your household and I am comfortable working with all different pets. If there is a specific routine you have set up for your house I will abide by it.

I am a college student and athlete, and I am an expert at juggling my workload. I can be wherever needed at any point, except when I have class or soccer games. I believe in treating everything with proper respect and care, especially when that entails others' property. I have no issue cleaning messes made by pets, and will always do my best to prevent any misshaps.

About: Hello! I offer reliable, attentive care tailored to your dog's unique routine. I gained strong hands-on skills raising my sister's dog from a puppy through two years old, including attending structured puppy training classes to master basic obedience, leash manners, and canine body language. In addition, I’ve pet-sat for friends' dogs for stays ranging from a single day to several weeks. Whether your pup needs high-energy play, reinforced good habits, or a cozy overnight stay, I adapt easily to their needs and keep you updated every step of the way! I am currently seeking part-time work so I can take care of your dogs periodically throughout the day and on the weekends! I am also available for longer duration stays if needed. I will take your dog to dog parks since I live in an apartment complex and would not be able to stay at my apartment for long with the dog. I would watch your dog in your home and be attentive to your dogs’ needs.

FAQs for House Sitting - Becknerville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 448 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Becknerville. 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 Becknerville 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 Becknerville 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Becknerville 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 , 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 .

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Becknerville. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
