“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!”
“Alan was great - helpful around the house (not his responsibility!) and also very communicative about our dogs and any questions or things that came up while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”
“Mattison was amazing! This was the first person we tried without a personal referral, and we couldn’t have been happier. She came before the requested dates to meet our dogs and understand their needs. With her being a Vet tech made us even more excited about using her. She will definitely be our first option for as long as she wants to sit for us.”
“Ava very communicative, sending pics and updates every day we were on vacation. She also administered meds to our older cat, and both cats were relaxed when we got back.”
“Kaley was great, she house sat for us and watched our two dogs. They are a little more high maintenance since we don’t have a yard, they needed to be taken out on a leash for walks to potty and she was on top of it. She also sent updates throughout the day on what they were doing! Everything was great when we got back and the dogs seemed happy😊 Kaley is very sweet and adaptable as well, our elevator even broke down and she had to use the stairs which I felt terrible about but she didn’t bat an eye and even carried my older pup up the stairs to save her joints. We will definitely book again.”
“Joanna was excellent at all stages of the process! She is thorough, and kept me informed about Cash while we were gone, sending pictures and updates frequently. Cash really warmed up to her and we will definitely book with Joanna in the future. Thank you!”
“Lauran is an absolute dream of a companion, house sitter, fur baby manager and lover, and just overall great human. Lauran was thoughtful, responsive and responsible in every way. From sharing pics of our Simon and Molly with us, to asking questions of us as needed, to her bubbly and positive personality, to her attention to detail, she will be our go to person every time we need someone who we trust to spend time at our home and with our pups. We came home to a house nice Ethan we left it a two dogs that were clearly well taken care of while we weee away. Thank you Lauran for being such a great Rover sitter! Thank you Lauran for giving us such peace found and comfort as we traveled.”

About: Huge animal lover so I’ll take care of your animal like it’s my own. I have 3 cats and a German short haired pointer pup who loves to play so if you want to set up play dates or board your pup at my home I hope it likes to play 😁 because my pup loooooooves playing. I can do boarding and sitting at my home as long as your pup gets along with other doggies. I have a big home, big fenced in yard and tons of treats. I also do drop ins and walking so if you need me to come to your home to take care of your pup or kitty that’s totally fine! Taking care of animals is second nature to me. I’ve had animals my whole life. Can’t wait to meet yours!
About: I’ve dog sat and house sat for friends before and they have trusted me with their house and animals, generally for 1 week but sometimes for longer or shorter. I take very good care of the home and animals, listen to instructions careful and apply those instructions in order to be helpful. I will always be upfront and honest with everyone and I always communicate well. I currently work as a full time server at Texas Roadhouse and live by myself. I am not married nor have any kids yet so it’s just me. My schedule is pretty flexible in the morning to early afternoon due to having to serve at night generally. I don’t mind coming in to help before and after work. I don’t have any pets in my own home because I can’t due to landlord rules but I grew up with animals throughout my whole life. I play with the animals if they want to play, pet them, feed them when they need to be fed, take them on walks (dogs), just have fun with them!
About: I currently have 4 dogs and have a huge passion for animal care and keeping dogs happy and healthy. I love taking walks with dogs! I believe pet care includes great exercise which can make any dog super happy! Just loving and caring on a dog has great an impact! I have had many different sizes and kinds of dogs growing up. I know how to handle and care for all different sizes and breeds.
“Erica was great with my 3 cats! I had to take a trip while in the process of introducing a new cat to my duo. She did a great job navigating the system I set up for keeping them separated.”
“Laura cared for my two large and high-need dogs for 10 days in my home. Half of those days, I did not have cell service. She communicated regularly and dealt with odd things that came up without my assistance. She left my home spotless, and my dogs were peaceful and calm when I returned home! I feel lucky to have found Laura!”
About: I'm just here to make as many canine friends as possible! I love going for walks and would be thrilled to have a puppy companion. For me this isn't a chore, it's a passion! I have experience walking large dogs and senior dogs. I'm happy to walk any breed of dog. While I love bringing my canine friends treats, I respect any special dietary restrictions. My goal is to take as great care of your dog as you would. Please let me know if your dog has any restrictions. I'm currently available for walks and drop-ins throughout the week during the day and the evening. I'm also available for house sitting with 24 hours notice. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!
About: I’ve grown up since I was little in a multi-pet household, including dogs, cats, and more! As an adult, I’ve been the go-to dog and cat sitter for my friends and family. I have extensive experience caring for medically difficult dogs, cats, and even hedgehogs! I’m located in southern Indiana, but work in Louisville, ensuring I’m just right across the bridge no matter which side you’re standing on! As a night owl with flexible working hours during the day, I’m able to check in on your fur babies at almost any time. I am experienced in providing excellent pet care in many different home environments and have been trusted by family and friends to promote safe and peaceful experiences with their pets all from the comfort of their usual environment.

Jorie is very nice and communicative. She was able to accommodate my last minute booking and then a last minute reschedule. My two chihuahuas (who are a little anxious) warmed up to her quickly. She sent texts and photos while watching them which was very sweet. Tysm Jorie! 10/10 would recommend 👍🏻
Ami is an absolutely FANTASTIC sitter. I wanted to gatekeep how incredible she is so she doesn't get too booked up :). She took such incredible care of my dog while I was out of town and gave me tons of updates. I felt like I never even left my little guy with how fabulous her communication was. She also took great care of my house which is huge for us given how much we travel. 10/10 will be using Ami again for many sits in the future!
I recently used Madison for a weekend overnight. I found Madison to be a true dog lover, very friendly and easy-going, and a great communicator! Our home was spotless with no issues. We consider ourselves lucky to have such a caring and attentive person to watch our dogs when we were away. I look forward to trying her again.
Olivia was a joy to work with! Easy to communicate, sent us lots of photos, and clearly has so much enthusiasm for animals. When we came home, our dog looked like he was glowing and our cat was calm and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated her taking such great care of our babies and would definitely book again!
Julia was so amazing! She was great with my senior dog, who tends to be anxious and requires medication twice a day. She kept us updated with photos and messages for the entirety of our trip, which was so appreciated. I came home to an excited but relaxed dog, who’s normally visibly stressed out when I pick her up from boarding. Overall she was kind, professional, and had so much genuine care for our pets. Would absolutely recommend her!
Alexandrea was great with Drax! She kept us updated while we were away, and it was nice knowing he was being well taken care of at home. We came back to a happy Drax and everything just as we left it. We really appreciate her and would definitely have her watch him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Jeffersonville is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $50 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 721 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jeffersonville. 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 Jeffersonville 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 Jeffersonville 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 Jeffersonville 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 Jeffersonville. 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.
