She gave us detailed updates every day. We will definitely use her services again and we highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”
“Joanna did a great job!! She was very communicative. She sent pictures of the pets regularly, followed all directions left, reached out with any questions, and left the house tidy upon the end of the service. She even came over a week before to meet the pets and familiarize herself with the location of foods and treats! Very thankful for her work!”
“Patrick was amazing,. I needed someone to sit my dogs last minute because a family member canceled and he was quick to reply. He took great care of them and went over and beyond to attend to all their needs. He sent me pics of them all weekend. I would highly recommend Pat if you’re looking for a good sitter.”

About: Howdy, I’m Zoë, a recent graduate of Syracuse University. Between my siblings and me, I grew up with almost every pet imaginable, including dogs, cats, fish, rats, chameleons, and an axolotl. I freelance and substitute teach during the school year, but my schedule for the summer is completely open. I update my schedule weekly in case anything comes up. My rule is that I always leave spaces cleaner than I found them. Although I cannot accommodate pets due to my apartment’s rules on pets, I am more than happy to provide for your pets, either in your home or by driving your dog to one of Louisville’s many parks.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Norbourne Estates is $50

This was my second time booking with Lauran, and once again she was absolutely wonderful! Having someone I can trust with my two cats gives me so much peace of mind while we're away. She kept me updated with photos and messages, made sure my cats were well cared for, and even managed to earn the trust of my very shy cat, which says a lot! It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and goes above and beyond to make sure they're comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
Pat did a great job taking care of our cat, dog and house while we were away. He kept us regularly updated on the furbabies’ daily activities. He went above and beyond by watering plants and taking care of the house. Everything was well cared for and clean when we returned home. We will be happy to use his services in the future. Now we can travel with confidence knowing our pets are safe and happy.
Madison was excellent. She helped us out with both our dog and cat with a very last minute request. She was very responsive and easy to work with and clearly has a lot of pet experience. I had zero hesitation leaving her with the house and the pets. As expected, the furry kids were happy and the house was in perfect order upon our return. I will definitely reach out to Madison again!
Jocelyn was wonderful with my two dogs and two cats! She was very accommodating to their needs and flexible with scheduling. She offered to stay when my trip got extended and communicated throughout! Also, the house looked great when I returned :). She will be my first pick!
Madison did an amazing job pet-sitting for our golden retriever, Charlie, and our cat, Beesly. She followed all of our instructions carefully, gave both pets excellent care, and treated our home with respect while staying there. We came home to happy pets and everything exactly as we left it, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and we would absolutely book with her again!
What a wonderful experience we had with Kaylynn. My high anxiety puppy really loved staying with her. I had no worries whatsoever while we were away. This was our second experience with Kaylynn and I would not hesitate to book with her again. She was on time, professional, and just a pleasure.
Asher was incredible! She cared for my pup, Leo, while I was away, and her care was simply outstanding. She was so thoughtful and engaged. She sent frequent updates, adorable photos, and left my home spotless. Knowing Leo was in such caring hands made my trip even more enjoyable. It’s clear she has a gift for this, and Leo adored her. I am immensely grateful!
Cassie was kind enough to fill in for a different dog-sitter who cancelled on us truly at the last minute. She was super fast to respond and extremely flexible when we kept having to adjust our plans. We could immediately tell she had great energy that our anxious chihuahuas warmed up to very quickly. Would definitely book Cassie again. Thank you for being such a lifesaver!!
Catherine was great with our pups! She saved us in a pinch and booked us last minute so we could make our concert! She was very tentative when we gave her instructions and had no issues bonding right to our 3 babies. If we are ever in Louisville again and need our pups watched, she will be our first call! We also got video and picture updates the entire time we were gone! Top tier service!

FAQs for House Sitting - Norbourne Estates
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Norbourne Estates on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 752 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Norbourne Estates. 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 Norbourne Estates 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 Norbourne Estates 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 Norbourne Estates 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.

- 99% 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.
