“Lauren did a fantastic job with my Chester! I looked forward to her updates everyday, as she left little notes about the kitty's demeanor. From the looks of, Lauren formed a nice bond with my Chester. I was completely at ease knowing that my cat was in the best of hands under her attentive care. Thank you again!”

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.
“Crystal was amazing! The cats were well taken care of and she even took the time to understand the litter robot boxes whenever there was an issue. Lots of sweet photos and super easy to communicate with”

“If you’re looking for a reliable, friendly pet sitter who can cozy up to even the shyest kitty, Angela is your sitter. She goes above and beyond and even brings in the mail and waters your plants. Will be contacting her for future pet sitting needs.”


About: Just a quick note my wife is pregnant and likes to come with me on walks and drop ins, let me know if that’s an issue :) I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have a lot of hands-on experience caring for them. Over the years, I’ve taken care of dogs for friends, family, and people I didn’t personally know through pet sitting. I’m comfortable with everyday care like feeding, walks, playtime, bathing, nail trimming, and giving medication when needed. I also have experience with mild dog training and working on basic manners and routines. I understand that every dog is different. Some need lots of exercise and attention, while others are happier relaxing and sticking to their normal routine. I do my best to follow each owner’s instructions and make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re away. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and treating them like part of the family. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I make sure I have enough time for feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is for pets to stay on their normal routine, so I do my best to follow the schedule and instructions each owner provides. I’m also flexible when it comes to drop-ins, walks, and sitting, and I always make sure I have the time needed to give each pet proper care rather than rushing through a visit. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone else’s pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any specific rules for the home. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other areas are secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during walks, playtime, and visits. I also take the time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and comfort level so I can help them feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like I would want someone to treat my own. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and let owners know how their pet is doing while they’re in my care.
“1st time using Haley and rover. My boys are everything and leaving them always scares me esp bc 1 of then is diabetic and need insulin and the recommended feeding regime. Haley did great with them and sent me pics of the boys and was available to chat when I got home for my check in. Will be using her on a permanent basis.”
“I have an ungodly amount of cats: 7, to be exact. A couple of them hate all humans (other than their mom) and a few of them routinely refuse to eat for anyone other than me. Caring for 7 cats, three times a day, is quite the task. Christi was phenomenal with my cats. She thought outside the box and tried several things to get the stubborn ones to eat; reaching success on several occasions. My first booking with Christi was for seven days and my second booking was eight days later, for five more days. By the end of the second booking, my most stubborn of cats (who also happens to be my heart) begrudgingly started to accept Christi’s presence. This is no easy feat and is one I am grateful for. Litter boxes weren’t scooped as thoroughly as I would prefer but my cats were fed and that made me happy. I do recommend Christi as a sitter and I would absolutely utilize her services again. The fact that my crew warmed up to her means a lot to this cat mom.”


“I got back from my 2.5 week vacation yesterday, and my cat was the most relaxed she’s ever been after I’ve been gone. She normally follows me from room to room screaming at me when I get back, but she didn’t even seem to care too much that I had returned lol. Kayla obviously gave her a ton of attention and took great care of her. I loved the daily photos and videos. I hope she can take care of Riley the next time I go on vacation!”

About: I love hanging out with animals, playing with them and loving on them! I dog sit and cat sit regularly throughout the week for friends, family and neighbors. I have multiple references if ever needed. I’ve done multiple overnight and week stays in clients houses. I’ve also done multiple drop ins for first time meet with the pet. I can give out medications and do shots if needed. I have Lupus, so hanging out with animals is very therapeutic to me. I have open availability, I can do overnights or weekends. Whatever you need me to do I’m available anytime to help out with your fur babies! I will first come in and get the animal warmed up to me, then take them outside. We will then go play or eat. I make sure your animals will be treated with love and respect. I also will make sure to clean up any mess that has been made.
“Emma was so responsive and reliable when I needed someone to drop in on my pup. I got lots of pictures and updates while I was away, which made the whole experience so much better. Emma put me at ease and I knew my pup was in great hands. Will definitely be booking her again!”

“Rebecca was an absolute life saver and amazing watching our dog while we were gone for a week! She jumped in last moment when our original sitter cancelled and had our little one in great hands. She is very communicative, a quick responder, and we really appreciated the full updates and numerous pictures with each check in. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little and learned the importance of care needed especially with certain breeds. I personally have a Great Pyrenees mix now and he is my whole world. I grew up with Belgian Malinois, Labs, Cane Corsos, and Brindles. I have trained these dogs before and know how to read body language. I have been a dog sitter for even little fur-babies, such as yorkies and chihuahuas🩷 i love to go on long walks and play games with pups. I’m an ER Nurse and work three days a week, overall my pup gets all the attention he needs with the help of my spouse that takes care of him as well. We do long walks every morning and get tons of play time and socializing at public dog parks in the area. I will treat any animal as if it’s my own!! I take extra care of any fur-baby that I can, they are in my opinion our best friends and need to be treated as such. I will take all the time needed to do walks, play fetch, or do some fun training! If the pup is friendly and wants a friend I can even bring my own fur-baby so it’s a play date!
“Claire was an amazing sitter! She kept me updated the entire time and was quick to problem solve when my high maintenance cat threw some curve balls. She cared for her just like we would and I got to enjoy my weekend because I knew she was in good hands. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I grew up caring for a variety of pets, fur babies are my favorite! I worked at a doggy day care for 3 years. Since then I have taken care of my own cat and learned a few tips from a Veterinarian I’m close to! I moved to Knoxville to go back to school to get my bachelor’s degree. Let me know what you prefer and we can work it out! My 3-year-old son and I are excited to provide your pup /or kitty with endless amounts of love and exceptional care! I am no stranger to fur and/or slobber covering me and I don’t mind getting a little dirty having a blast playing with your fur baby. I’m good at “reading the room” I’m happy to give cats the space they need as well as all the pets and snuggles they desire! You tell me what you’d like done and I do it!

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have always loved caring for them. Over the past five years, I’ve trained two puppies for my family and regularly help care for the pets of friends and relatives. At home, I have two friendly dogs and two older children who are wonderful with animals. We live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks, with a nearby park for extra playtime. I enjoy spending time outdoors with my dogs and relaxing with them at home. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule with long breaks that allow me to give plenty of attention and care to the pets I watch. I truly look forward to meeting your furry family members and treating them like my own! I'm a teacher that has long breaks to be available for pet sitting during typical vacation times. We usually are up early for breakfast and morning playtime. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that love other dogs. We enjoy playing out in the yard but also snuggling on the couch.
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet lover who understands how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I work during the week 8-4:30p and am pretty open on the weekends! I am able to accept clients during the week if early morning and late evening work! I prefer pet sitting at the clients home due to I have 2 cats and live in an apartment. The space would be too small.
About: 2+ years of experience in kennel and veterinary settings- working with both cats and dogs with a variety of temperaments and ensuring their best experience while boarding! Dog and cat sitting experience for 10+ friends and family members countless times- comfortable with talks and indoor enrichment activities regardless of species. I currently work part-time during weekends, meaning I'm usually free Monday-Friday to play with and walked pups and cats whenever they need it! With my years of experience working with vet clinics and adjacent boarding facilities, I am comfortable working with animals with a variety of sizes and temperaments. I am more than comfortable to play inside, take dogs (or cats, if you want) on long walks, play outside, and monitor behavior to ensure beloved pets remain safe and healthy in the heat of summer.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 588 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Louisville. 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
