“Isabella took care of my cat while I was away for a work trip. It was the first time my cat was alone for an extended period of time and Isabella was so sweet and understanding that I was probably more nervous than the cat was. She sent me multiple pictures every day with updates. I highly recommend Isabella for any of your pet sitting needs. She is so sweet and will go above and beyond to take care of both you and your pet.”
“Very attentive and was great with our two cats. He was always on time with the check ups. We have an elderly cat that takes medicine and is a fairly slow eater. Dax was really good with making sure that she got her medicine and didn’t get her food stolen. He sent picture updates that were very appreciated. He made sure the litter boxes were cleaned and the water was refilled as well. We felt safe and comfortable with our cats at home with Dax coming in to check on them. Highly recommend!”

I currently work at Sky Unlimited in Nicholasville Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm. Off Saturday and Sunday. Will be available in the evenings to service your pets needs whether it's walking, playing, or feedings in the Lexington or Nicholasville areas. I can also do more than 1 drop ins during weekends if necessary. Our house has a fenced in back yard with a home security system with cameras in the back yard, the living room and the laundry room.

About: I believe our animals do more for us than we ever realize.❤️ And I love to help them feel special and loved in return. ✨ A few years ago, I unexpectedly become the happy human to a crazy Aussie, and while I’ve always been a cat person, I have thoroughly enjoyed immersing myself in the dog community! 🥰🐾 I am responsible, reliable and trustworthy. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness are my top priority while I am with them. I go out of my way to make sure they feel loved and well cared-for while you are away. 💛 I am available to visit your cats in the afternoon through early evenings 🌼 I do have some flexibility earlier in the day for emergencies if they come up. When I arrive at your home, my first priority is finding your cat and saying hello if she didn’t already come out to greet me! Then washing and refilling water and food bowls, tidying litter box and settling in for some quality time 🩷
About: I have taken care of a large poodle for a few weeks multiple times a year. I had to feed once a day and let outside. In addition, I have taken care of 3 dogs feeding them once a day. I have taken care of a cat and dog, cleaning the litter boxes and letting the dog out. Lastly, I have house sat/dog sat for an older dog that got fed twice a day. I have experience in house sitting for long periods while animals are present. On the other hand, I have a lot of experience farm and house sitting. This can sometimes include taking care of horses in addition to farm dogs and cats or just house sitting with an animal present. Since I am a college student, I have days that are busier than others, but I am always open to different schedules. My times won’t be the exact time everyday, but I can make it out to the animal everyday. I currently am a senior at Asbury University studying equine studies. I have always had a passion for animals and I would love to get more time helping others with their pets. I think animals are a beautiful creation and they deserve our love and care.
“Gabriella did a great job staying with my two kitties while I was on vacation. It helped me relax and enjoy being away without having to worry about them. My place was immaculate when I came back. Highly recommend!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats my entire life both personally and with family and friends! I love animals and know how stressful it can be finding pet care!

About: About Me Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I do professionally. I own a pet-sitting business serving Central Kentucky. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with multi-pet households, senior pets, animals with special routines, and pets who need a little extra patience to become comfortable with someone new. I’m also a lifelong animal owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets. I pay attention to the little things—changes in appetite, behavior, bathroom habits, mobility, or anything else that seems unusual—and I believe in keeping owners updated so they can relax while they’re away. What You Can Expect I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and care instructions, maintaining your pet’s normal routine, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, providing playtime and companionship, and giving each pet the individual attention they need. I especially enjoy working with animals who may be shy, particular, anxious, or simply need time to decide that a new person is trustworthy. I don’t expect every pet to immediately love me—I’m happy to earn their trust at their pace. Safety & Communication Your pet’s safety comes first. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep a close eye on the animals in my care, and communicate promptly if I notice anything concerning. You’ll also receive updates so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s hands. My goal is for you to come home to happy animals who have been well cared for and whose normal routine has been disrupted as little as possible. Whether you have one spoiled house cat, an energetic dog, a senior who likes to take things slowly, or a whole household of four-legged family members, I’d be happy to care for them. Although I work as a substitute teacher, there are many days I am home part or all of the day. While I have a generic routine, I like to know the pets usual routine so I can cater to that as much as is possible. I have a small fenced yard, but most importantly, my apartment is set up with pet safety in mind. I have gates and latches to prevent accidental runners, my cat has her own space to keep away from other animals, I have the space and ability to separate dogs if needed. Ultimately I treat them like my own. They are welcome in my bed, have free run of the common areas, have lots of toys... I am always up for snuggles and fun!
About: I have had a dog from the time I was 12 until I was 22! I know how to take care of all ages, from puppies to our beloved senior doggies. I’m in search for my new study buddy to keep me company while I do my flash cards! I am currently in medical school, and my class schedule is predictable but flexible. With a low amount of required activities, I am available to spend more time with your babies! I usually study from home, which means we can both keep each-other company :) I have experience in dog sitting and house sitting. I will be more than happy to spend as much time as possible in your home so that your pets stay on as normal of a routine as possible. I care for pets like I care for my patients- with love, responsibility, and devotion!
About: I have been caring of a variety fur babies since I was a kid. I have experience with working with both younger and older fur babies. I am currently working while coming my masters online in counseling so I do have flexibility with working overnights. If need more availability please contact me. I have a fenced area at my apartment complex for dogs if needed. I have a variety of treats and toys for cats if needed.
About: I am an animal science major at the University of Kentucky and have experience with pet sitting, walking, and training. I have multiple years of experience. I am currently available anytime after 4 PM on weekends and some evenings during the week. I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s schedule. Pets in my care are always kept safe, comfortable, and happy. I can crate your dog if needed and follow any special feeding or medication instructions.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years through family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule and can work pet care around my classes. I’m available most Fridays and weekends, as well as weekday mornings, afternoons, and evenings when I don’t have class. I’m happy to discuss specific dates and times to find what works best for you and your pets. I’m very comfortable caring for pets in their own homes and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m happy to follow their normal routines and any specific instructions you provide, and I’ll treat every pet like family.
About: I have had pets all my life. When I moved out I adopted a dog with reactivity and separation anxiety. I know first hand how scary it can be to leave your pet with someone not knowing if they can provide special care for your baby. Thankfully I am able to provide excellent care for all your pets needs (yes this can even include medication administration!). Other experience I have is volunteer work at the Lexington Humane Society, Fostering kittens with Lexington Humane Society, and having my own pets! I currently am in the process of becoming a dog trainer and I also am attending college for social work but my classes are online so I have a lot of free time! I offer things that other people can’t. I am experienced with special circumstances like diabetes care or reactivity. I have a calm but loving approach to my care that makes your pets feel safe and comfortable! I believe in positive reinforcement and science based training and care!
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from dogs and cats to reptiles and amphibians, I've care for most! Being aware and responsive to your pets needs is key! I do contract work so my schedule is flexible most of the time. Generally up late so don't mind odd hours. Also available for early mornings as well, schedule can usually made to accommodate. I have reliable transportation and can travel whenever needed. I'm comfortable and experienced in giving pets medicine or injection if need be, and I'm willing to adapt to whatever needs your pets may have.
“Tayler has been very professional, friendly, and a great person all around when it has come to dropping in on my Owen. I’m extremely satisfied with her communication. She goes above and beyond to spend a few extra minutes with boy, making sure he gets the positive attention he needs. Thanks so much Tayler!!”
About: I adore animals, and with me, your pet will always remain safe and pampered. I have a long history of animal care, having grown up raising and caring for just about anything you could imagine. I am a college student and athlete, and I am an expert at juggling my workload. I can be wherever needed at any point, except when I have class or soccer games. I believe in treating everything with proper respect and care, especially when that entails others' property. I have no issue cleaning messes made by pets, and will always do my best to prevent any misshaps.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 117 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Keene. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
