About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and have experience with both cats and dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a cat of my own and regularly volunteer with animal shelters, which has given me experience working with animals that need patience, attention, and individualized care. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, or simply companionship, I’m committed to providing reliable and loving care. I work full-time during the week, but pet care easily fits into my daily routine. I’m available for morning visits before work and can provide care again after 4:00 PM on weekdays. I also have greater flexibility on evenings and weekends. As a pet owner and animal lover, caring for animals is already a regular part of my life, and I’m committed to making sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and consistent care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide individualized care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or during a visit, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a clean and secure environment, and ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.

About: Growing up me and my family have always had multiple dogs, cats, horses, ferrets, and even hamsters, I was always begging for another animal. My parents had told me if I get this animal I have to take good care of it, so from a young age I have had experience taking care of multiple animals at once, making sure they were fed, walked and properly played with and taken care of! In highschool and college I have had friends and family ask me to take care of their pet while they’re away on a trip so I already have experience either taking an animal in for a day or two or showing up to their house to feed, water, walk and play with the animal. I work around 27-30 hours a week. So during the week most days I am free until 11-noon and then on my break at work I would be able to stop by and finally when I get off work around 7-8 I am free for the rest of the night. I rarely work work Thursday, Saturday or Sunday so those days I will be completely free! I do not have any pets at the moment. My lease does not allow me to have pets. Whenever I was living back home I always made sure I fed my cats and dogs on time and always made sure I had time to play with them so I can make them as happy as they make me!

Molly was great! Our pups warmed up to her right away. She did an excellent job communicating her schedule and made sure to spend plenty of quality time with our crew throughout her stay. We came home to happy dogs, a clean and tidy house, and everything looked exactly the way we left it. We would welcome Molly back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter! 🐾❤️

About: Born and raised in Henderson, KY. Growing up my family would rescue animals and help find them homes, we had 4 dogs and 5 cats at one point. Now my fiancé and I have 7 of our own: a cocker spaniel and a great dane and 5 cats. Our life revolves around animals, and I thought it would only be fitting to be able to help assist other people with their care needs! I just started a part-time job so my schedule is very flexible, I may get called into a meeting for an hour but starting out as a realtor, I'm sure business will be slow at first. So available every other hour or so at minimum. All of our cats stay indoors. We keep our 2 dogs on an electric fence system as well as a beep/vibrate/shock collar because our house backed up off the road and our closest neighbor is about 100 yards away. But we leash our dogs when we take them into public or on a walk in the park.

In addition to my boys I have one girl cat named Argent (Argie). I have had experience with medically complex dogs that have seizures, autoimmune disorders, complex eye issues and more. Owning exotic animals and horses has also been a passion of mine for over six years. If you can keep it as a pet, I have experience with it! I am available for select holidays, weekends, and overnight stays (subject to change). I have a part time job during the week which leaves my availability to only on weekends.

FAQs for House Sitting - Henderson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Henderson on Rover is $22.2 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 98 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Henderson. 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
