“Sierra was fantastic! She responded very quickly to my booking request, met with Mr. Donut and I before my trip, and was very communicative when I was away. With all her experience caring for pets and animals, I felt super confident I was leaving Mr. Donut in great hands. I would 100% recommend her and book her in the future.”
“This the first time Daila cared for our kitties, and she did a wonderful job! She was a great communicator and all our cats were doing great when we returned from our trip.”
About: Hi! I’m Michelle, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve always had rescue dogs and cats, and caring for them has been one of the greatest joys in my life. I’ve raised and cared for several of my own rescues. I’ve also fostered and occasionally foster failed before ultimately adopting. Through those experiences I’ve cared for pets with very different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve worked with animals ranging from tiny kittens to gentle giants like Great Pyrenees. I’m a dependable, detail-oriented person who understands that every pet has their own routine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll do my best to make them feel comfortable and loved. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being treated like one of my own. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite parts of the week. I keep my schedule organized so I can provide reliable, dependable care. I’m available for morning and evening visits during the workweek, as well as weekends, and I’ll always communicate clearly if I have any scheduling limitations. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, especially while their family is away. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.
About: I have grown up caring for animals and have hands-on experience with cats, dogs, and small animals, including my own three cats, dog, and guinea pig. As a proud cat mom to a tripod cat, I also have personal experience providing extra medical care, administering medications, and adjusting routines to meet an animal’s individual needs. I also gained valuable animal care experience through my internship at Tiger World Endangered Wildlife Preserve, where I worked with a variety of species, including big cats, primates, bears, and other exotic animals. My responsibilities included preparing diets, cleaning habitats, providing enrichment, observing animal behavior, and assisting with daily animal care routines. Outside of that experience, I have pet-sat for friends and family, caring for their animals while they were away. I am currently studying Animal Behavior and Environmental Science, with a long-term goal of working in wildlife conservation. I bring patience, reliability, and a genuine passion for understanding animal behavior to every pet I care for. Whether it’s providing daily care, keeping pets mentally stimulated, or accommodating special health needs, I love making sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I am currently an online student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to fill my free time with something I love: caring for animals! I would love to spend that extra time looking after your furry friends and making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care while you’re away. I have flexible availability throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and whatever else your pets may need. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable and loved! I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and enriching environment for every pet I care for. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special care needs. I focus on providing enrichment through play, attention, and mental stimulation while also respecting each pet’s comfort level. I’m attentive to safety at all times, ensuring pets are secure, supervised, and stress-free in their environment.
“Catherine was amazing! She is kind and really loves dogs. I will use her again in the future every chance I get. I’m fairly certain even after just one weekend she is my dogs second favorite person.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had experience with pups of all walks of life. As I got older, my friends got cats and I love a good kitty snuggle. I’m the friend that checks on the animals when you have to go out or hit up vacation! I work full time but work from home partially through the week! Usually available most weekday evenings after 5pm and would be available on set weekends for additional care beginning in the afternoons. I have a large fenced in backyard and work from home part of the week. I also have a separate area for crating, if needed. My own pup, Cricket, would love to have a buddy even now and again!
About: Longtime dog lover, current cat owner, I am currently an in home caregiver: this means that I’m an extremely trustworthy, compassionate, and adaptable hard worker. Experienced in senior pet care; avid hiker and artist, I know how much your fur babies mean to you because I know how much mine mean to me! They’re the reason why I dedicate so much of my time to working and helping others! It would be my privilege to get to know your pets and to give them the best care possible. Building trust and connection is what I do best, with both animals and people. I work as an in home caregiver which gives me lots of flexibility in my schedule! I maintain an active lifestyle with hiking and walking in my neighborhood and around local parks; I would love to take your dogs along on walks and runs! With my flexible schedule and my own reliable transportation, I’m able to pick up your fur babies in my car to take them to appointments or on adventures to the local parks. As an in home caregiver, I’m trusted by my clients with their loved ones in their homes, and would be available for both house sitting and house cleaning services. I know how much your pets mean to you; they’re the reason you work as hard as you do, and it would be my privilege to get to know them and to give them the best care possible. Building trust and connection is what I do best, with both animals and people.
“Wes has been taking care of my puppies for years now! I have full trust in his dynamic ability and judgement, as we are away for extended vacations and he has taken care of issues independently and flawlessly as they arise. My pups absolutely love him!! I absolutely recommend him for your own pups!”
About: Hello! My name is Lauren and I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets when you are not able to. I myself have grown up with dogs my whole life and would pet sit my neighbors animals all the time. Now, I have my own little zoo of 2 dogs, 3 cats, and some geckos. I spent one year in a vet tech program so i know the basics of animal medicine, 6 months taking care of the marine mammals at Shedd Aquarium, and I also have a bachelor's degree in Zoology. I understand it is hard to leave your pets unattended for hours on end and stressful when you come home to an accident but they can't help it. I want to help alleviate that stress for you and your pet by giving them the best care possible. I can only provide check-ins and walking services. I am looking for some supplemental income to help support my little family. I have a 3 year old and an 8 month old but have recently gotten a full time job in the Bloomington area. I am available during early evening hours and weekends. They are family so they get treated with respect and love and I will treat yours like I treat mine to make sure they are happy and living their best life.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 318 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Harrodsburg. 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 Harrodsburg. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
