“Ciara was awesome. I felt comfortable overseas knowing Freya was in good hands. Ciara took care of everything and even developed a bond with Freya. I'd be excited to use Ciara again in the future.”
“Donai was exceptional! I knew when she came to meet Alice and Hank and she got on the floor to meet them, and asked for some treats to win them over, that she had already won over my approval. She gave me daily updates and daily pictures. It made me so happy on my trip to both see them, and also see that they were being well cared for and loved. Would definitely book Donai again!!”
“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”
“Eleanor went above and beyond, retrieving an important piece of mail that arrived while we were away. And our pup was well taken care of, as usual!”
“We appreciate you so much! Emily genuinely cares about our dog’s welfare and health and will go out of her way to help and make him more comfortable. He is not the easiest pet, but despite his sometimes confusing behavior, Emily goes above and beyond to provide the highest level of care.”
“Maddy did a great job with our dogs! She kept them fed and entertained. The updates were great and I never was concerned with how the dogs were doing. One of my dogs is a trouble maker and she did great with her! Definitely recommend booking her! Reasonably priced, great service!”
“Bayley was awesome with drop in visits for our dog! She took great care of her, especially responding to her fear of storms, which were plentiful while we were gone. She also quickly accepted our request to extend services after our return flight was cancelled. Highly recommended!”
“Jacqueline was amazing! She fit me in on a super short notice when I took an unplanned day trip. She was extremely communicative and kind, and even offered to do extra tasks that I hadn’t asked of her.”
“Cody was amazing! He took great care of my cat Sebastian while I was out of town. He even went the extra mile and fixed my automatic litter box when it stopped working. This was my first time using this app and I couldn't have been more happy with my experience!”
“Jenn was absolutely fantastic! She was kind, compassionate, friendly, and went above and beyond while watching my kitties. if I ever need to use Rover services again, I will definitely be reaching out to Jen again! 😁”
“Athena came through for us in a pinch. She is so communicative, attentive, and we truly lucked out in finding her. Our three dogs absolutely adore her. She sent videos and pictures that let us know that our dogs were in the best hands.”
“Missy was very communicative and caring to my cat. It was first time using a sitter for him. I was a bit nervous as we had just moved and worried my cat would not do well. Would definitely rebook with Missy!”
About: I have several years of pet care experience, watching animals of any kind and loving every minute of it! I have participated in training my own dog and have rescued and re homed several cats. I share experience in watching/walking dogs in training and those of senior age groups, I’m an animal lover at heart. I am a college student but am flexible at different times throughout the week depending on the times needed. My schedule is consistently open on weekends! I consider myself a responsible person when it comes to pet care. I am attentive, perceptive and understand every pet has a different personality. I hold a good routine in mealtime, bathroom breaks and make sure to give plenty of playtime or cuddles to pets who are interested!
About: I have years of experience providing reliable and passionate pet care for all ages and sizes. I am also experienced in puppy training, senior care, and providing medication if needed. I take the utmost care to ensure that your pup's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I work from home so I am flexible in that regard. I can take my work around any space if needed and work around your schedule. I clean up after pets thoroughly as well as provide them with lots of potty breaks and exercise. I never have them meet new dogs for their safety.
“Billy was awesome. My cat was in good hands while I was away—never had to worry. Lots of updates. He stayed a little longer to make sure she was comfortable with him. I would book with him again in a heartbeat.”
“Mary went above and beyond to care for our cat. Our cat is very skiddish around new people, but Mary took her time to be patient and let Callie warm up to her. We really appreciated her thoroughness and reliability. Followed all instructions to a tee and provided great daily updates. Highly recommend booking Mary!”
About: My love for dogs started in third grade when I wrote a persuasive essay to my parents about why I want a dog. I grew up with two mini Australian Shepherds (yes, because of my essay) and to this day, my enthusiasm for dogs still grows. I work full time in the office. I can accommodate check ins and walks in the evenings Monday - Friday. Depending on location, I can also check in before work. Before I come take care of your dog, I will make sure that any of your questions and concerns are answered as well as any questions I may have.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Louisville
Emily was so lovely with us and our animals! She helped me walk through how to use Rover, was excellent on our meet & greet making sure she asked all the questions about the info I hadn’t provided and took great care of our pup and cat! On top of that she was very personable, easy and fun to chat with but still professional all the way! Highly recommend!
Elsie did the most wonderful job watching our cats while we were on vacation! She went above and beyond in taking care of them and keeping them entertained. I loved seeing the pictures she would send after each visit. It was such a comfort to know they were in great hands while we were away! We would absolutely book her again.
Jacqueline did an absolutely stellar job -- I got TONS of pictures of my kitties to help me feel secure while I was on vacation, and she did an amazing job both with the routine feeding/cleaning care as well as pets/play :) great communication, and was even able to be flexible and handle an extra day when my flight got cancelled. Highly recommend for all future pet care needs!
Maggie always treats our fur babies like family, and keeps us updated with daily reports and pictures. This provides peace of mind when we travel. She is a caring sitter and we use her every time we go out of town, knowing she will take care of our girls like a member of the family.
Ryan was so helpful with our dog and two cats. Our regular pet sitter had to cancel last minute and Ryan really stepped up and helped us out so much. He even gave our cat medicine so he could feel his best while we’re gone. We will definitely be rebooking with Ryan sometime soon!
Highly recommend Chris! He was a last-minute lifesaver to my two kittens. After our initial meeting I felt very confident and safe leaving him to check-in on them. And as expected, he did nothing but provide the exact care and regular correspondence I had hoped for. Thanks Chris!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Louisville on Rover is $17.44 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Louisville. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
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.
