“One of the best pet sitting experiences we’ve ever had! He was so accommodating and kept us updated with pictures and videos! Boss made a new friend for sure and we will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Kierstynn was nothing but amazing to our animals. She stayed in our home and everything was smooth from start to finish. She kept us updated throughout her stay and treated our home with respect. She gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was there caring for our animals and our home. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for them. I previously helped care for 4 dogs, over 10 cats, and 3 horses, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities, sizes, and needs. I also have experience working in an animal shelter, where I cared for and handled a variety of animals. In addition, I pet sit for my uncle when needed, where I care for his 3 dogs. I recently moved and now have 2 of my cats with me, but I still have plenty of experience from caring for a larger group of animals. I understand how important it is to be reliable, patient, and attentive, and I treat every pet like my own to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My schedule is currently flexible as I’m in the process of settling into a new area. I’ll be coordinating availability around my husband’s work schedule, but I’m open to dog walking, drop-ins, and pet sitting when I’m available. I’m happy to communicate and work with pet owners to find times that work best, and I’ll always be upfront and reliable with scheduling. I always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I follow any routines, feeding schedules, and instructions exactly as given. I’m very patient and attentive, and I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos.

“Sarah was fantastic in every way. She came out pre booking to meet us and our two dogs, and after booking, easily accommodated our small schedule change, an additional day added. She has a lovely personality and a keen wit, and she lovingly cared for our two dogs and our home going above and beyond with daily check-ins and photos. We would definitely ask Sarah to sit for us again. We highly recommend Sarah and are grateful to have met her.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Maysville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 299 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Maysville. 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 Maysville 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 Maysville 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 Maysville 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.
