“Kelsey was such a great sitter for Lenny. She was personable and quick to communicate, she loved on my dog like he was her own. I would definitely use her again! Thank you Kelsey!”
“Amanda was fantastic! She was willing to adjust the schedule that was originally agreed upon, when I had some changes come up last minute. My animals absolutely loved her, she sent me so many pictures each visit to let me know they were all okay. Also, she was very communicative, I could reach out to her at any time and she would get back to me ASAP. It was a relief to know my animals were being taken care of while I was out of the house each day and given all the love they deserve. I will be using her again in the future shouldand when I need any animal care. ❤️”

About: Hi! I’m Kembra, an active duty Army Logistics Officer based in Kentucky, a military professional, and a proud mom. My career has taught me the importance of responsibility, attention to detail, communication, and caring for others, qualities I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve always had a love for animals and understand that pets are family. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, stopping by for a visit, or caring for them while you’re away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in your absence. My dog, Milo, of 12 years ( shown in my profile) has just recently passed away due to old age, so having a reminder of being around a persons best friend, is also so very cherished, through the sharing of others fur babies . I know what it means to have a “Man’s best friend” in this case , a woman’s . I’m dependable, patient, and believe every pet deserves individualized care. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, dietary needs, medications (if applicable), favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide the same level of care they’re used to at home. As someone who values structure and consistency, you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your furry family member is doing. I enjoy staying active, so long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection come naturally. Whether your pet loves adventure or simply wants someone to relax beside them, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. I have a clean, safe environment and understand the trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. My priority is giving you peace of mind while making your pet’s experience as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

About: I have grown up with all types of animals my whole life. I have a deep love and connection with animals. I have one cat right now and I care for a friends giant Schnauzer as needed. I am able to feed your babies and take them for walks or just some fun play time . I work Monday through Thursday 6am-430pm I am available after work and on the weekends. I can do overnight at your home or just come for feeding or walks. I do work in Louisville and I’m there a lot so the distance is no problem. I can have animals overnight at my place but only on the weekends Thursday evening to Sunday evening . My cat has 3 towers for play and many other toys. I clean her box 3/4 times a week, and check food and water daily.
About: Having grown up and worked on a farm until moving to Louisville four years ago, I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and other fowl. Along with providing routine daily care, I am experienced in handling basic needs across various levels of veterinary emergencies. While I am currently enjoying my time in grad school, I truly miss being around animals every day and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I'm a full-time grad student, my schedule allows me time in the morning, in the evenings and throughout the weekend to look after your pet. I can be flexible and am open to talking and finding a time that can work for both of us! While I have much experience with animals, I do recognize that everyone has different needs. I'm looking forward to meeting each animal and learning about their individual personalities as well as their needs. I promise to communicate as openly as possible to bring as much peace of mind as I can while you are away from your pet and your home. I understand that there is a level of trust that comes with having someone new in your home, so I am open to answering any questions you may have so that this can be a smooth and comfortable process for both of us.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Elizabethtown
Rachel is amazing. This is my 2nd time booking her service. She went above and beyond for my 3 kitties. Especially my oldest male that had PU surgery the week before I left. She was basically on call until we figured out the best way to keep his e-collar on since he was a little escape artist. She gave him his meds and and loved on him and still managed to spend time with my other 2 so they wouldn't feel left out. Odin was really extra! Lol. I really appreciated everything she did. Very reliable and responsive even in the early morning hours🫠 thank you again so much!
Alison was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond—not only was she professional and attentive, but she even saved my plant after my cat had knocked it over. That kind of care and thoughtfulness really stood out. I couldn’t be happier with her help and highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Elizabethtown is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 331 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Elizabethtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elizabethtown. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
