About: Ever since I was little, I've had a deep passion for caring for animals, treating every pet like my own family. I am dedicated, patient, and experienced in providing attentive, reliable, and loving care for pets of all personalities and needs. I’ve been walking dogs in my previous neighborhood. I’m excited to meet new furry friends! I currently have full-time availability, which means my schedule is completely flexible. Because pet care is my main focus right now, I can easily adapt to your pet's exact routine, feeding times, and exercise needs without any rushing. I prioritize safety and comfort above all else by strictly following all care instructions, maintaining a clean environment, and ensuring double-checked secure doors. I am attentive to body language, keep pets calm, and send regular photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.

“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!”


“Halie was a wonderful pet sitter! She was prompt, communicative, and thoughtful, providing daily photos and updates that gave me peace of mind knowing my kitty was in great hands. She went above and beyond to ensure my cat was well cared for and left my home very clean and tidy. I truly appreciate her attention to detail and reliability. I highly recommend Halie and will absolutely invite her back!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Gabriella watching our dogs and home for seven nights and would highly recommend her! From the start, Gabriella’s experience with pets and house sitting really showed. She took the time to do a thorough meet-and-greet beforehand to understand our routine and, most importantly, the extra care needed for our special-needs pup, Heidi. She made sure Heidi received her medication, exercise, and the attention she needed, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Her communication throughout the week was excellent. We received great daily updates and lots of photos of the dogs, and she was always quick to respond. She was also able to spend plenty of time with them, which was especially important to us since our pups can get anxious when left alone for too long. Gabriella also took wonderful care of our home and left everything clean and in great shape when we returned, which we really appreciated. To top it all off, she was able to help us on fairly short notice after our original sitter became ill and absolutely saved the day. We couldn’t have been happier with Gabriella. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs and home again and hope to have her back for future trips. Highly recommend!”

“Haley did a wonderful job caring for my dog! She was professional, dependable, and attentive. I felt confident that my dog was in great hands and would gladly book with Haley again.”

“Amber was very accommodating of our last minute request. We were glad to know our cat and dog were taken care of while we were away. She sent a few updates throughout the day and pictures were sent on request.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I treat each animal like my own—with attention, compassion, and understanding. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, from high-energy puppies needing structure and training reinforcement, to senior dogs who require a slower pace and extra TLC. I’m confident with administering oral medications, managing specific dietary needs, and reading body language to make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s working on basic commands, easing separation anxiety, or just providing a cozy cuddle buddy while you’re away—I adapt to each pet’s individual needs. I also prioritize communication with pet parents, so you’ll always feel in the loop with updates and photos to ease your mind. Pet care is something I naturally build my routine around—it’s not just a job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening feedings and snuggles, I structure my days to make sure pets are getting the consistent attention and care they need. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to be fully present for each pet I care for. I’m committed to creating a calm, comfortable environment, sticking to their routines as closely as possible, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priority is creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where your pet feels right at home. I stick closely to their usual routine—mealtimes, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any medications—because I know consistency helps them feel secure. In your home, I treat your space with total respect, keeping everything clean and leaving it just as I found it. I take time to get to know your pet’s personality and needs—whether that means extra playtime, slow-paced walks, or just keeping them company. If pets are staying with me, they’ll have a cozy, pet-friendly space with lots of love, toys, and attention. I keep a close eye on behavior, eating habits, and energy levels, and I’ll always keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands.

“Allie was great! She came over early to meet our dogs, was so friendly, outgoing and very communicative. We felt very comfortable having her house sit and will definitely hire her again. I recommend her highly!”

“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!”

“What can I say about Preston. She’s a bright, charismatic young lady who my pups Stella & Duke had the pleasure of being cared for by Ms. Preston for the last 11 days while I was on the other side of the country. Preston was kind to my dogs and they both loved having a new face to get a vacation away from their dad. Preston was in contact with me at all times, she took frequent photos of my dogs daily. She was very neat and cleaned up after herself through the last 11 days when she would drop by to care for my pups. I would highly recommend Preston to care for your animals and will certainly use her services again in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember whether it would be my own, friends, or neighbors. I’m willing to do anything with your pet from letting them out at your home, taking them on walks, to a dog park, or the vet if needed. I have an almost 200 pound Great Pyrenees so nothing surprises me. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and especially don’t discriminate on dog breeds. I really hope to be your baby’s second best friend ;) I am a senior at Barton College. I am also on the field hockey team there and majoring in biology. I am HOME FOR THE SUMMER so I would love to come take care of your fur baby. I do work two part-time jobs so I do require at least a week notice for all jobs. Your pet is my number one priority when I am in your home. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible with me so I will follow all instructions faithfully and communicate any issues or questions with you. (and will send you plenty of pictures of your baby)

About: I was raised in a home with pets. My mother was a dog trainer, show dog champion, and breeder so I have life-long pet experience. I have cared for hamsters, fish, dogs, cats, birds, horses, rabbits and turtles. I currently have a male mini-dachshund who sleeps with me and is my best buddy. I’m retired and available most days of the week or weekends. I am available for long-term stays or drop-in visits when you just need someone to provide a potty break or a mid-day walk. I know that when I need a dog sitter, I prefer someone to stay in my home that allows my little buddy to stay in his normal surroundings, so I get it and will do the same for you and yours. However, if you prefer I board your pet, I have a fenced yard and allow pets on furniture, unless you have trained your pet to not be allowed on furniture. My home is clean and non-smoking.

FAQs for House Sitting - Coldstream
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 701 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Coldstream. 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 Coldstream 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 Coldstream 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 Coldstream 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Coldstream. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
