“Katie is the absolute best! She took amazing care of our pup and our home. She goes above and beyond to provide plenty of updates and make sure your dog has a fantastic time. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Emily is an absolute pro! Kind hearted, considerate and our pets loved her! Outstanding communicator, sharing many photos and updates. She’s very tidy and was kind to our home. She’s really good with animals and is just a great person. Highly recommend!”
“We had Kaitlyn stay at our home over Memorial Day weekend to care for our two dogs, and she was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond, doing two home visits before her stay to get to know our pups and ensure they were comfortable with her. One of our dogs is 15 years old, deaf, on several medications, and prone to wandering at night—which requires a lot of patience and attentiveness. Kaitlyn handled it all with care and compassion. Her communication was excellent; we received daily updates with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we returned home, the house was spotless and, most importantly, both dogs were calm and relaxed. That’s not always the case—so it was clear they felt safe and cared for. We couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care Kaitlyn provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, communicative, and genuinely caring sitter.”
“Cassie was great! Our initial plans changed and Cassie was flexible and accommodating. She checked in on our dog, played ball with her and sent us a picture. We will use Cassie again for sure!”
“Nicole could not have been better to work with. She gave us regular updates, shoed up early and was very flexible with our last minute booking. She even left us baked goods when she left! Will be booking with her again if we can!”
“We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs of all ages and stages. I have delivered puppies and taken care of them through their first 8 weeks of life. I have cared for older dogs giving them medication in various ways. I am a typical home body so overnight stays will ensure that your pet is seen, cuddled and cared for extended periods of time throughout the week. Daily I am home by 5:00. In my home pets are apart of the family. My only boundary is that pets are not allowed on the furniture, me and my kids have allergies and need the sheets to be clean!
“Vanessa was wondering. Oz was so well taken care of. When I came home he was so calm and the place looked great. She was great with communication and updates. Would definitely book her again.”
“Madison went above and beyond in every way. I cannot recommend her enough. She took such good care of our dogs while we were away, communicating throughout, and treated them like her own.”
About: I’ve taken care of, for one, my own dog since I was young and besides from that my neighbors, friends, and family always rely on me when they’re out of town to take care of their pets:) I’ve taken care of puppies and senior dogs! I’m currently enrolled at the University Of Louisville, and have some in person and also online classes so when I’m available could differ but I’m pretty flexible and I could bring my laptop anywhere! I love pets like they’re my own, I have a deep spot in my heart for them all🥹 I can crate any size dog if need be (I know some worry about that). More than happy to take them out wherever whenever, play/walk with them, or bathe them:)!
About: I currently have 4 dogs and have a huge passion for animal care and keeping dogs happy and healthy. I love taking walks with dogs! I believe pet care includes great exercise which can make any dog super happy! Just loving and caring on a dog has great an impact! I have had many different sizes and kinds of dogs growing up. I know how to handle and care for all different sizes and breeds.
About: I’ve dog sat and house sat for friends before and they have trusted me with their house and animals, generally for 1 week but sometimes for longer or shorter. I take very good care of the home and animals, listen to instructions careful and apply those instructions in order to be helpful. I will always be upfront and honest with everyone and I always communicate well. I currently work as a full time server at Texas Roadhouse and live by myself. I am not married nor have any kids yet so it’s just me. My schedule is pretty flexible in the morning to early afternoon due to having to serve at night generally. I don’t mind coming in to help before and after work. I don’t have any pets in my own home because I can’t due to landlord rules but I grew up with animals throughout my whole life. I play with the animals if they want to play, pet them, feed them when they need to be fed, take them on walks (dogs), just have fun with them!
About: I’ve always had a love for animals, especially dogs! I’m excited to provide a fun, loving, and caring experience for every furry friend I meet. Whether it’s going on walks, enjoying some playtime, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I want every pet to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I understand that pets are family, and I will treat yours with the same love, patience, and respect. I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to make dog walking and pet care part of my regular routine! I’m interested in providing walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the week. I’m happy to communicate with pet owners about scheduling and work together to find times that fit everyone’s needs. I look forward to building relationships with pets and their owners! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I will always follow your instructions, keep your pet supervised during walks and visits, and make sure they receive plenty of care and attention. I’m also happy to provide updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Chelcie was great with our cat. She was super communicative with us during our trip and left our house cleaner than we left it. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Julia couldn't have been any better! She took such good care of my Weimeranner that is 11years old. My house was spotless when I got home and went over and beyond what I ask. Will use her again positively!!”
“We will definitely use Jennifer again. She took great care of our dogs and our home for a week. We didn’t worry at all while we were away and our dogs hardly noticed we were gone.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Grayson! From the very first visit, it was clear how much love, care, and attention he gives to animals. He treated our pets like his own—sending us regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog (and even our usually shy cat!) instantly bonded with him, which says everything about his calming and kind presence. He went above and beyond making sure their routines were followed to a T. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. Grayson an absolute gem, and we feel so lucky to have found him!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Buechel
Cassie is great! We booked her fairly last minute and she was wonderful with our 3 fur babies! She stayed at our house for 6 nights and everything went great. She shared pics throughout the week which we loved. Our girls are a lot! They have different foods and there are meds both morning and night. Cassie managed it all like a champ and our girls were happy and cared for! We will definitely book Cassie in the future and I highly recommend her!
Madison was incredible! This is the first time we’ve left our recently adopted dog with a sitter and I was nervous but he couldn’t have been in better hands than with Madison. She was very communicative, sent great updates, and was really fantastic with my dog. He had so much fun while we were gone! I would definitely recommend Madison and have already booked our next sits with her!
Stephie went above and beyond for Ivy. We have used her twice now. On this last visit Ivy developed an ear irritation. Stephie went home and got drops from her own pups to help it clear up. She consistently sent photos and updates. We will request her every time we need a sitter!
Catherine was great with our pups! She saved us in a pinch and booked us last minute so we could make our concert! She was very tentative when we gave her instructions and had no issues bonding right to our 3 babies. If we are ever in Louisville again and need our pups watched, she will be our first call! We also got video and picture updates the entire time we were gone! Top tier service!

The average cost of House Sitting in Buechel is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $83 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 730 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Buechel. 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 Buechel 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 Buechel 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 Buechel 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.
