Savannah was amazing! Our dogs can sometimes take a bit to warm up but she ensured us they would be fine and we felt very comfortable leaving them with her. Not only did she take great care of our pups, our house was cleaner than when we left! I can't say enough good things about Savannah. We will definitely be using her services again!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I want to point out first, I do work a full time job Monday-Friday and the hours are 7:30-4, so this is my side hustle! I wanted to be open and transparent before you book with me! I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I currently have a white lab/golden retriever mix that is just under a year old, her name is Maggie! I’ve taken care of friends and families pets since I was about 17. The animals I’ve watched have included dogs, cats, and guinea pigs! My favorites are my senior animals who just want to lounge but I love taking my younger ones to the park to play as well! I’m currently working full time during the week but available to pet sit or take care of them after work. I build in time to my daily schedule to accommodate walks, feeding time, and play time! I am more than happy to provide references from my other clients to help ease your mind. I also have experience in having to crate animals and keeping them separate if needed.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I have vet tech experience, and dog training experience. Animals are a huge passion of mine. Sometimes I like them more than people 😉 I have a completely open schedule. I do work for myself so I can always work around yours and my schedule to give your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. I know how to read the body language of animals. I know how to give medication. I can do anything for your pet that you normally do.

About: “Hannah is your go-to pet lover! When she’s not greeting folks at the front desk and handling insurance at Baptist Health, she’s probably planning her next adventure, or spending time with her fur babies! Hannah absolutely loves to travel and has a whole crew of four-legged friends at home. She’s got two adorable Mini Aussies who are eight years old, two playful cats that are a year and a half, and even some reptiles she’s been caring for over the past five years. Growing up on a farm means she’s no stranger to looking after all kinds of animals. If you need someone to drop by and check on your pets, she’s available for morning visits between 7 and 8 a.m., or after 5 p.m. on weekdays once she’s off work. Plus, if you give her a little heads-up, weekends can work too!” “Hannah lives in Shepherdsville and happily serves clients in Shepherdsville, Elizabethtown, Lebanon Junction, Boston, and even occasionally Bardstown. Whenever you need someone to drop by and take care of your furry (or scaly!) friends, she’s got you covered.” I have a pretty set schedule that I can work around! I work M-F 8:30-5 in Elizabethtown, I drive from Shepherdsville, so I can stop in before work or after, or both! I can accommodate any requests! I don't like for pets to stay locked in a cage like most boarding facilities do. I like them to feel as if they are at home with you, if needed to be crated while they sleep I can do that as well.

About: I’m an animal lover, vegan, and environmentalist with a passion for compassion! I can hardly remember a time when I have NOT had a pet. I have dog and cat sat for a house with 7 cats and dogs multiple times, so I’ve become accustomed to the temperament of pets. Nothing brings me joy like having a furry friend to accompany me on a walk around town. I am an attentive pedestrian and I know the rules of the road as a driver as well as on the sidewalk. I value nature and recognise the need to help dogs and cats by cleaning up after them in public. Overall, I’m a responsible pet-owner, and I understand the busy schedules of human-animals, and how important it is to ensure that our non-human friends get the attention and outdoor time that they deserve and love! I’m currently available for walks most mornings and pet setting any day of the week. I can accommodate early morning walks and any feeding schedules. I understand the need for pets to have frequent trips outside, and some time cuddling on the couch as well. I’m able to handle dogs of various sizes and temperments. Treats are a must if you approve and provide treats you like to give pups. I prioritize keeping dogs on leash when out of the house to make sure they stick by me.

Dawn was amazing! This was my first time ever using a pet sitter and I was a little anxious, I was worried my dogs might not behave perfectly and I was generally nervous about someone coming and staying at my house while I was not there. Dawn is an exceptional person and when we met up for a meet and greet, I told her about my fears and she was very understanding. She helped to settle my concerns and she even came over to my home a little early to meet with my animals and to allow them to acclimate to her presence. THEN, she proceeded to send me pictures and updates on my babies while I was away. 10/10. Absolutely adore her. My babies loved her and I will be using her services in the future, if I have to go somewhere and I can’t take my animals.

Marisa stayed at our house taking care of our dogs and chickens while my wife and I vacationed. She has an incredible love of animals we could see in her stories of her pets and she quickly bonded with all our furry and feathered friends. She took very good care of all of them and the house while we were away and was an excellent communicator keeping us posted on the day-to-day and how well they were doing. Highly recommended!!!

Grace was amazing. I have older dogs and Grace took the time to come meet them a few times before we left. I was gone for 7 days and my dogs where treated as family. And I received nightly photos. She stayed in our home. And the house was just like we left it. Would use Grace again.

We couldn’t be happier with Kaitlyn! From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear that she truly cares about animals and treats them like family. Shadow and Meeka immediately felt comfortable — which says a lot, because Meeka can be shy with new people. Throughout our trip Kaitlyn sent regular updates, photos, and even little notes about how the day went. It gave us total peace of mind knowing our senior dogs were getting attention, walks, and love just like if we were home. When we returned, they were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. We’ve used other sitters in the past, but no one compares to Kaitlyn! Reliable, communicative, and genuinely compassionate — everything you could ask for. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust completely and we’ve already booked with her again!

About: I’ve been working at an animal hospital for almost a year. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, cats, and other exotic animals. I’ve also worked with their different sizes, ages, diets, medications, etc. I’ve got a dog and 3 cats currently. I also frequently pet sit for family and friends, often overnight or over the weekend. I love to go on neighborhood walks with my dog to make sure she gets her daily exercise in. Also playing outside and enjoying the nice weather. I’m available to let dogs go on as many potty breaks as they need! For my cats, I love playing with them and seeing all the different toys to make sure they never get bored. I’ve also done my fair share of cleaning, no matter the mess, I’ll clean it up! I am a college student with at most 3 classes a day. I can do early mornings and then evenings/afternoons. During school breaks, I’ll be available all day. There may be the occasional days where I’m busy or out of town, but more likely than not I will be free and not busy. I will most likely ask the pet’s owners what they prefer on things like going outside, for walks, and other daily routines. I will constantly be checking in on the pet and making sure they’re doing okay. If anything were to happen, I would immediately contact the owner to come up with an action plan and see what they would want to do, depending on the situation. I would make sure that the home is safe and that there is nothing that the pet could get into that would hurt them.

Taylor was so incredibly wonderful!!! She took such great and attentive care with our two pups that we felt at ease while we were away (That can be very hard to do when you have to leave your fur babies behind!). We received consistent updates and plenty of funny pictures/videos to get us through our puppy withdraws, and that made all of the difference to us. Our home was left tidy, and I’d say probably even better than how we left it! We would 1000% book her again for any of our puppy needs. She’s one of a kind! :)

Kristi, was amazing with our dogs. She meet with us before her stay and the dogs and her instantly hit it off. She kept in constant communication with how everything was going. Getting home and the dogs looked well rested and relaxed for her stay with them. Will definitely use her again for future stays if available when we need aomeone to watch them.

There are not enough words to praise Emily for the care she gave our baby!! It was the first time we ever left our dog with someone, and we were very nervous. That all disappeared the moment we met Emily. She was so good with our baby (and with us), that we knew we chose the perfect person. While we were gone, we received numerous photos and videos of our baby that proved to us that not only was she doing well, but she was happy, content, and was getting all the attention she needed. Emily stayed in our home; and when we returned, it was just as neat and clean as when we left it. Emily is the number one choice ALWAYS!!

Miranda did a great job with our house sitting. She is a responsive communicator, great at giving updates and following instructions as needed to keep things in order while we had to be away, and has competitive rates. There’s a good chance we will add her to our standing rotation of sitting help!

FAQs for House Sitting - Deatsville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Deatsville on Rover is $33.6 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 738 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Deatsville. 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 Deatsville 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 Deatsville 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 Deatsville 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Deatsville. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
