“Rachel is a lifesaver! It was a last minute booking, but she showed up more than punctual and my pets loved her, even the cat. My cat usually hides from people, but she voluntarily climbed onto Rachel's lap. I also received multiple picture updates throughout the night, which was such a relief. It was my first time using Rover and a housesitter, but I will definitely book with Rachel again if I ever travel back to Gatlingburg with my pets!”
“Our fur babies loved hanging out with Nicole! She was available on short notice and sent us photos of our babies while we were out. We will absolutely request Nicole next time we are visiting the area!”
“Karen did a great job and our boy was very happy. Our home was clean and all was good I was a nervous per Mom as we had not left our puppy with many people yet. Karen did a wonderful job and we are all very happy.”
About: I’m experienced in walking and playing with dogs in the evening. Don’t stress about leaving a dog in my care. They will be in excellent care and thoroughly entertained. I’m available after 5:30pm Monday thru Thursday. I have more flexibility on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I am a part-timer on Rover. I can walk, fed, and entertain your pet to make sure they are satisfied. My home is unfortunately not suitable for boarding pets on the regular. I am able to stay with the pet overnight at their home upon request.
“She was absolutely wonderful with our slightly difficult dog and our cat loved her as well . We felt at ease on our trip knowing that our pets and home were well taken care of. I highly recommend and we will definitely be using Elaina again for any future house pet/ house sitting.”
About: Not just a pet sitter. We are dog lovers who treat every pup like family. Your dog becomes part of our pack - family atmosphere, loved, played with, and treated as our own. Extra snuggles, cuddles and playtime! I am a full-time stay at home mom blessed with extra help at this time, so your pet will be in wonderful care! No worries. We are pros at multi-tasking and will cater to the needs of your pup. I will strive to stick to your pet's routine. We will supervise and interact as much as you prefer for us to offering playtime and snuggles when needed. Maintaining a low-stress atmosphere and using a crate if they prefer. I can send updates photos and messages daily if requested. Thank you for considering me to keep your pet! :)
About: Hi! We’re T.J. and Allie — lifelong dog lovers based in Seymour who truly treat our dogs like family. We currently share this Rover account, though most dog walking and drop-in visits will be handled by me, T.J. I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely consider them my favorite thing in the world. My wife and I don’t have kids, so our dogs are our kids — spoiled, loved, and cared for like family. We’re proud parents to three of the best boys ever: Ted, a 9-year-old Shih Tzu & Bichon Frise mix with the sweetest personality Banjo, a 12-year-old Sheltie mix who’s calm, loyal, and wise Otis, our newest addition — a 24-week-old Beagle & Jack Russell Terrier mix who is currently stealing our hearts (and socks) Because Otis is still very young, we are not offering boarding at this time while we focus on house training, routines, and helping him grow into a well-mannered pup. Once he’s fully trained and settled, we’ll happily open our home to boarding other dogs in the future. In the meantime, we’re excited to focus on dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting — which honestly lets us give dogs our full attention in the environment they’re most comfortable in: their own home. I absolutely love going on walks and genuinely look forward to taking dogs out, exploring their neighborhoods, and making sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m very comfortable working with dogs on basic commands, leash manners, and obedience reinforcement, and I always follow the owner’s routines and preferences closely. You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and videos during every visit. I know how important peace of mind is when someone else is caring for your pride and joy, and I want you to see just how much fun your dog is having while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone who is patient, attentive, communicative, and genuinely excited to spend time with your dog — we’d love to help. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the day for walks and drop-in visits. Pet care is intentionally built into my schedule, and I plan my day around visits to ensure each dog gets focused, unrushed attention. On weekdays I'm typically available for afternoon (after 4pm) and evening visits depending on the day. I do not overbook, so your pet will receive consistent, reliable care — not a rushed check-in. On most weekends I am available and excited to help with your doggos however I can. Because I’m in and out throughout the day, I’m able to accommodate regular potty breaks, structured walks, playtime, and reinforcement of basic commands when requested. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely — including feeding schedules, crate preferences, medication needs, and exercise routines. I aim to keep their environment consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. Safety is always my priority. I double-check leashes, doors, and gates before and after every visit, and I remain attentive during walks to avoid unsafe situations. I use positive reinforcement, calm energy, and structured handling to ensure dogs feel secure and well-managed. Clear communication is important to me, and you’ll receive photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Angela was Great! Kids were given lots of attention and all care directions followed. Very respectful of our home and treated the kids as if they were her own. Easy to contact and keep updated on everything going on while away. Above and beyond care!! Thanks Angela!”
“Cassondra housesat and watched our 1 yr old dog and 2 cats while were were gone for over a week- I was nervous as we had not been away from our dig since adopting her, and she has some anxiety. Cassondra took excellent care of all our animals, everyone was healthy and happy when we returned! She sent us regular updates and pictures, handled any minor things that happened, and left our house spotless. We will definitely be hiring her again!”
“Catherine was wonderful! It was such a last minute booking, but she responded so quickly. It was a genuine relief to have her come and look after my dog and cat on such short notice. Both my dog and cat are of geriatric age and have differing needs with both having different medical conditions. She listened to our concerns and took our pet care instructions seriously. She comforted my dog who has severe separation anxiety and somehow managed to persuade my cat with princess-like standards to eat her entire can of cat food. Throughout the night, she responded quickly and sent pictures and updates. I would definitely book with her again the next time I am traveling with my pets in the Knoxville or Gatlinburg region.”
“Taryn was an absolute jewel. She treated my 3 girls as if they were her own & I appreciate so much all the extra love that she gave them. My house was clean on return from vaca & my fur babies were happy, so that's more then I can ask for. Thanks Taryn!”
About: Love all animals! Big and small! Love to go on walks and let them have fun and play! I like to take pictures of them as well, and keep you updated along the way! I am self employed so I have a very flexible schedule and can manage my time and make sure I am going to be available when I say I am and be there to attend to the pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any special instructions before their stay or visit. I understand that every pet is different and I am willing to accommodate each and every need they may have.
About: I’ve taken care of my fiancés parents dogs for 5 years! I love them to death! They have nine dogs that range in ages from puppy to senior. I have done everything from administering medication to the basics. When they go on vacation I am who they trust to watch their animals. I can care for all animals even farm animals and I would love to care for yours!! I do currently work a full time job and my schedule is very scattered. However I work early hours and am usually off by 1:30pm. But I would love to watch them after work/ on my days off. I do not mind fitting your animals into my schedule. I love animals and do not care to take time out of my day to care for your fur babies!! I currently cannot care for animals in my own home, I am very sorry. However I do not mind caring for them in yours as I will treat your home just like mine, if not better!
“Patricia was an excellent dog sitter. She was conscientious and loving with my dogs. She kept in consistent communication with me. She left my house in good order. I was very pleased.”
“Alex was AMAZING! She stepped up and covered an eight day booking last minute when the original sitter cancel two days before our trip. She updated us with pictures several times a day. Our house was cleaned pups were happy when we got home. They liked her so much they keep going to the guest room door looking for her! We will definitely rebook her and give her the highest recommendation!!!!”
“Lucy has taken care of my fur babies a couple times now. She always takes really good care of them. She checks in with me to let me know how they are doing while I am gone and is very responsive to messages. Gracee and Cooper enjoy her when she is sitting with them!”
About: Neighbors, family and friends have relied on me to care after their dogs, cats, turtles, birds, and chinchillas! I have a huge heart for all animals, but dogs and cats will always hold a special place ♥️ I have a flexible schedule since I am beginning my journey to obtain a health coaching certification online. I can provide drop-ins, walks, and house sitting services! Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and happy! I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles. I take time to learn their personality, favorite activities, and any special needs they may have.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Catlettsburg
We came home to 3 happy dogs! Rachel is exactly what we were hoping to find on Rover! She came by twice before we left to meet the dogs and let them get used to her. From the moment she took over care she sent pictures and updates regularly. Allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing that our babies were happy and safe! Have already started planing our next getaway!
Rachel was by far the best rover we’ve ever hired! She not only took care of our fur baby but went out of her way to make sure she could be involved in our wedding ceremony. Rachel was calm and patient with both me & Kali, even through my “bride brain” & Kali’s separation anxiety fits. She will for sure be our go to rover whenever we’re in Sevierville— there isn’t anyone better!
Jen is truly an exceptional dog sitter. From the moment she met our three dogs, it was clear she has a natural gift with animals—warm, patient, and completely tuned in to their different personalities. She sent thoughtful updates and adorable photos throughout the stay, which gave us total peace of mind. We could tell all three pups felt safe, loved, and genuinely happy in her care. She goes above and beyond in every way. Coming home to three relaxed, well-cared-for dogs says everything. If you’re looking for someone responsible, kind, and truly dedicated to your pets’ well-being, look no further. Jen is the best sitter we’ve ever had, and we’ll gladly book with her again! 🐾💛

The average cost of House Sitting in Catlettsburg is $55 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $83 per night.

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 Catlettsburg 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 Catlettsburg 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 Catlettsburg 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.
