“Christopher was great! Super responsive, took my pup to the vet when something suddenly came up and picked him up. Sent photos of the pups and they always looked like they were having so much fun! I will definitely be booking again. Thank you!”
“Haley was a lifesaver for my pups while I was working long hours. She communicated promptly, sent photos of the walks, and was so happy to help. 10/10 will book her again when in town for work!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my entire life! I specialize in high energy dogs and puppies. There’s never been a time where I didn’t have a dog as a part of my life. I currently have a 3 year old large breed dog that I have raised since he was 6 weeks old & a 5 month old Aussie mix! I frequently dog sit & help my friends train their dogs as well! I have also completed several dog training programs as well to enhance my handling skills! Currently my schedule revolves around caring for and training my pets. It is what I am most passionate about! I have a very flexible schedule which has allowed me to start working in pet care. I value honesty and transparency above all else. As a pet parent, I am very selective about who takes care of my babies as they are family members and I would want to provide the care that I expect to receive. I am happy to follow exact instructions and keep owners posted as desired! I also maintain an active lifestyle so I am happy to provide plenty of play and walks!
About: Experienced in 25 years with all domesticated animals from bottle feeding to senior care. I have raised and rehabilitated lots of animals. I have a lot of experience at rehabilitating wildlife as well. I stay in contact with local shelters, vets, and sanctuaries. I work outside of my home on Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's. I get off at a decent time on those days and can still take pets after my work day hours, in-between days, and weekends. I will consider days/week long stays if your pet is crate trianed or can be left alone without a problem, on those days that I work. I have cameras that allow me to watch the pups if I am at work. I will take multiple pets from the same owner. I want your pal(s) to have the best experience at our home. One of my three dogs are crate trained and I have experience with crate training if your dog is used to a crate upon leaving or at night. I have a separate large room that I have always used for my own dogs in case they need to be put up a while upon leaving. If your little guy or gal is shy, no worries I have all the patience needed for that. If he/she wants to stay away from the others, I have a separate large room (with Dog TV for noise.) My dogs love watching dog TV, and maybe yours will too. If your pal follows a strict schedule, it would not be a problem to accommodate, even administering medications.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Paducah
Becca is an awesome sitter. Our dog ended up with an ear infection while we were on vacation she sent photos and informed us of what she did to help ease his discomfort! Due to the heat our pups weren’t very playful so Becca went out of her way to pick up sticks that had been fallen from a storm! She kept us updated with photos! We are thankful for her love for dogs!
Did a fantastic job and did well helping solve some problems that popped while I was gone! Fantastic communication and overall very good at making my cats feel comfortable and safe. This was my first time leaving my cats ever and I am so glad I chose Chris to take care of my babies.
Christopher took care of my 5 cats for a week while I was on vacation and did an outstanding job! He was punctual for his twice daily visits, sent reports and pics after every visit, and had no issue with giving one of my cats oral medication during each visit. He goes above and beyond in keeping litter boxes and surrounding area clean (no small task with 5 cats!), followed all feeding instructions, and interacts with them during every visit - even with my shyest cat! I am so grateful that I was able to have a worry free vacation thanks to Christopher’s great care for my fur babies! This is my second time booking with him, and I highly recommend.
Becca took excellent care of my kitty! He is always stressed when I am away and this time he was so relaxed and happy when I came home because of the loving attention he received from Becca while I as out. She was responsive to questions and I highly recommend her services.
I was nervous about finding care for our dog in a new town. I booked Becca to meet our dog, unsure if it would all work out. She had a high rating on Rover and I decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did!! She knows her way around pets, is professional and kind. Our dog took to her within minutes and after having 3 visits, I know Becca will care for him well. I have no reservations about leaving him here or recommending her to care for your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Paducah is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 43 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Paducah. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
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.
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.
