“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.”
“Nikki was great! We gave her a tough task of 3 dogs to watch, 1 being a puppy but she took the time to get to know our boys and stuck to the schedule. We got lots of updates and photos which is always appreciated. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a trusted sitter.”
“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!”
“Aleigha was great with our dog, Leo! She was super personable and attentive, and kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and messages. We felt totally comfortable knowing Leo was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“Carina was amazing while house-sitting and caring for our two dogs, Lyla and Kenny! My wife and I felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in such loving and capable hands. Having someone we could trust made being away so much easier. We highly recommend Carina and would gladly have her care for Lyla and Kenny again. Thank you, Carina, for giving us such peace of mind!”
About: I have five dogs ranging from young adult to elderly, chihuahua to German Shepard. I take excellent care of them, my four cats, and will take excellent care of your pets, too! Daily walks, bathing, feeding and playing are all things that I have copious experience with! I have also cared for livestock animals in a professional capacity for a combined total of three years. Horses, a mule, sheep, goats, a hog and chickens are all proud members of my repertoire. I am a full time pet-parent to my own critters, and am more than able to add yours into my daily routine. My spouse and I are staycationers, so most holidays will have us curled up at home and available to assuage your anxieties about your own animals. Nine times out of ten, I can make my schedule work with yours! I treat a client's pet as my own in terms of level of care and attention, but with all the respect included in acknowledging that you obviously know your pet best and I am a guest in your home and your pet's life. I respect all boundaries and rules given to me regardless of personal opinion and strive to always meet client expectations and let you have the peace of mind in knowing that your pet is being taken care of according to YOUR standards.
“I had an amazing experience with Jerusha and her boyfriend Ethan as my pet sitters. They did a fantastic job caring for my two dogs, Henry and Georgie, as well as my cats. Henry, who is usually fearful and anxious around men, surprisingly warmed up to Ethan and loved spending time with him. Georgie, my social butterfly, had a blast playing at the park. Even my antisocial cat Logan, who typically avoids people, felt comfortable enough to sleep on Jerusha's lap. They walked my dogs regularly, provided plenty of playtime, and ensured all my pets were well-loved and cared for. They sent so many lovely pictures too!! I highly recommend Jerusha and Ethan to anyone looking for attentive and compassionate pet sitters!”
“Lauren was wonderful with our boy Maxie this week. In fact the whole experience working with her from first introduction to us and to Max before booking her, through the care and to the end of our trip was all excellent. Max took to her right away, a big reassurance to us going off on our trip. Then each day of her time with him (pet sitting for a good portion of each day) she provided plenty of pictures and videos to let us know how things were going. Great communication and feedback. Lauren is highly recommended based on our experience, and we will definitely be booking her again! Very much appreciate all that she does.”
“Abby was AMAZING! We scheduled a meet & greet prior to visit the house and meet in person. During our trip she was extremely communicative - sending updates and pictures to ease our minds while we were away. She was so warm and friendly, and our fur babies loved getting the extra attention! Will definitely be using Abby again in the future! ?”
“Victoria was accommodating and communicative. Very friendly and my pup loved her. Sent pictures and updated me every day (I was gone for a week). Thank you for being good to Myla and me!”
“Desiree was great with Madison when she watched yer for the weekend. She was also very responsive to messages and sent photos of our baby. We would definitely hire Desiree again to watch Madison.”
“Ang is the best with our boys! My shitzu usually takes a while to warm up to strangers but he liked her immediately and now they’re best buds! I’m very grateful for her. She leaves our home better than we left it and always send me updates. We couldn’t be with our pups for Xmas but she took them to see Christmas lights. She is the best, highly recommended.”
“Megan did a great job watching Murphy! She kept in contact with us, sent pictures and videos. We came home to a happy fur baby and a clean house! We were able to have a great vacation because we were not worried about Murph with Megan there. I highly recommend her!!! We will be booking with her again!”
“Lily came for a meet & greet prior to our booking, which was much appreciated. She sent us daily pics a s videos as well as updates on their eating, sleep g, playing , etc. I could tell that Rocco & Rosie were comfortable with her. Our home was clean and orderly when we arrived home. We will definitely book Lily again.”

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.
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 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 , 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.
