“No need to board your dogs ever. Jessica took care of our dogs at our home while We were away on vacation. The daily communication was excellent. We were comforted to know our dogs were in caring hands. I highly recommend Jessica to care for your dog.”
“Daniel was awesome! He sat my two dogs for a weekend and was extremely communicative. My dogs were well taken care of and seemed really happy to spend time with him. We will definitely book with Daniel for our next trip!”
About: I have grown up around a variety of animals and have been a trusted caretaker for 3 years now! I have experience with reptiles, aquatic life, dogs, cats, small furry friends, and birds. I would love to help in any way I can! I currently have very open availability and can offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m able to adjust my schedule as needed and provide consistent, attentive care. I’m really big on making sure my pets are happy, comfortable, and taken care of. I keep them on a consistent feeding schedule, always make sure they have fresh water, and stay on top of cleaning their litter boxes regularly. They have lots of toys, cat trees, and little things to keep them entertained, and I love giving them attention and spending time with them. I’m very attentive to their routines and needs, and I treat them like my babies.
“Amazing pet sitter! He took great care of Benji and Milo, walked them, fed them exactly as instructed, and paid attention to every detail we left. We came home to two happy and relaxed dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Lily recently watched my three puppies and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was incredibly attentive to each of them, kept up with their individual schedules and even took the extra time to work on training commands with them. She kept me updated throughout my trip with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy, well cared for and having a great time. Lily truly went above and beyond and it was clear how much she genuinely cared for my puppies. I will absolutely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible and dependable pet sitter!”
“Alonna was great! Very responsive, good communication and took really good care of my Great Dane, Ozzy! She left my apartment in perfect condition. Will definitely book again! I highly recommend her.”
“Dai Yah, was prompt with her response when we urgently needed a last minute same-day booking request in order to go out to an activity and then dinner with family. Were extremely mindful and careful when looking over sitters profiles and this is the 4th time we have booked a house sitting request via Rover app and it was a pleasure to work with DaI Yah. If you’re interested in booking a sitter that has such a pleasant vibe like super chill and easy to follow care instructions for my little 5lb Shih-Poo then schedule with DaI Yah, we will be booking again many more times for DaI Yah, I already mentioned to her that were interested in a repeat sitter so Blaze has a pleasant experience each time we need house sitting care. Dai Yah, and I spoke with each other college and family and goals so it was a great having the brief conversation to try to build that sitter-pet parent connection.”
“I have not left one of my pups to travel in over a year. She had her gall bladder removed June 2025 and was shortly thereafter diagnosed with Cushing's Disease, so I was scared to leave her, but I had a wedding in Charleston to go to, so I contacted Nikki. She came over and met the girls and I liked her a lot. She was on time the day I was leaving. She left the house just like she found it. She texted me frequesnt updates and pictures. She made my short trip to Charlestion much less stressful. I will definiotely reach out to Nikki the next time I need someone to stay at my house with the pups.”
“Having Isabella at our house was such a huge relief. We were gone for a week and she sent lots of pictures of our dogs and stayed in contact with me the whole week. It provided such a peace of mind knowing our dogs and our home were well cared for so we could enjoy our family vacation! I will absolutely book her again in the future!”
About: My love of animals goes back as far as I can remember. I have always had animals in my home and have taught my children to love them too! I currently have 5 cats and a chameleon. I have fostered through Austin Pets alive and Pflugerville Animal Shelter as well. I am extremely knowledgeable in caring for diabetic cats as I had one that was very dear to me and he just passed away this year. I am comfortable with giving insulin, checking blood sugar and administering medicine. If needed I can get you a referral from my vet, Forest Creek Animal Hospital as they know how dedicated I was to my diabetic baby. I have a spare bedroom where I can board cats away from my own cats. You can trust I will treat your babies as they were my own. I am a stay at home mom with one in college and one a senior in high school, my schedule is very open. I can be very flexible. I absolutely love animals and can confidently say your fur baby will get the best of care. I am extremely trustworthy and would treat your baby with lots of love.
“Melissa was extremely good with both Ginny and Grady. She was very responsive and made sure they had everything they needed to be comfortable and happy. We would love to have her back next time we need a sitter.”
About: Hi! My name is Carina and Ive always been an animal lover. My friends and family call me Snow White because of it. If there is an animal around thats where you'll find me. I have experience with fostering bottle fed kittens, kittens and cats with medical needs, dog and cat ownership. I've also had experience caring for a dog with epilepsy and a dog with severe anxiety.

Animals provide us with such happiness and unconditional love. I believe we all have a duty to give back as much of that love as possible. They surely deserve it!

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I currently have three dogs and one cat, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I’ve learned a lot about dog body language and understanding each dog’s unique personality, and I’m always learning more about cats too. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently a cosmetology student and work part-time. Since I haven’t started school yet, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Even once classes begin, I’ll continue to keep my schedule updated and only accept bookings that I can fully commit to. I always make sure every pet gets the time, attention, exercise, and love they deserve while they’re in my care. When caring for pets in your home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and respected. I like to approach every dog with a calm, positive energy and take the time to let them get to know me before we head out for a walk. I pay close attention to their body language, personality, and energy level so I can adjust to what they need. Whether your dog loves a long walk, a slower pace, or just extra encouragement, I’ll make sure they have a safe, enjoyable experience. I’ll also follow your pet’s routine and care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away.

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 Bowling Green 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 Bowling Green 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 Bowling Green 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 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.
