“Jennifer stayed with our dog and two cats for a week and we felt comfortable that they were all safe and well cared for. Our house was spotless when we returned home and our girls were happy, so I know they had a great time with Jennifer!”
About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was young. Looking forward to taking care of your fur babies as if they were mine I recently lost my pets and the apartment I live in doesn't allow pets so I look forward to loving your fur babies as if they were my own I'm pretty flexible at dealing with animals I used to have a Australian shepherd and a Shih Tzu Chihuahua mix and two cats so I'm used to taking care of a lot of babies
About: I have a dog and two cats of my own and I have a deep love for all of them. I can’t wait to meet some of your animals or pets in the future. I do have school from 8 to 3:10 and involved in extracurricular activities but on the weekends and sometimes throughout the week, I am free. My dog is trained to stay in our yard, but in public, I always walk him on a leash and I would be sure to keep your pets and animals on a leash, unless stated otherwise in your directions.
“Abby was incredibly attentive to my cat and sent frequent updates while I was away, and even took the time to ask several questions in our initial meeting to ensure all important details were communicated. My cat is VERY shy around people and yet by the end of my trip, Abby gained her affection - which speaks to how dedicated they were to genuinely caring for my cat. Definitely would recommend Abby a sitter for those that wants their pet to be taken care of like family :)”
“We had a tricky start due to some technical issues. But everything else was great! Our doggies were so much more relaxed when we got home than when we had to bring them to a dog sitter.”
“Heidi is an excellent pet sitter! She was attentive with my pets needs, remained very proactive with her communication, sent regular photos and updates and gave my blue Heeler plenty of exercise! Highly recommended!”
“We have used Kaitlyn several times for sitting with our pup and cats. She’s always a pleasure. She has great communication and our babies love her. The house is always neat and clean when she leaves. We love having her sit for us!”
“Penny was excellent with the full day care of our two dogs, one being blind. She sent numerous pics throughout the day . Carried our blind dog out to go and walk outside a bit, played with our GSD. We will definitely use her again, she is a professional and very caring.”
About: I have had the pleasure of adopting two special canines. The first a lab/beagle mixed who lived his best years until 17 yo. He was on special diet so I am familiar with restrictions. My current just turned 3 and is a lab/german wired haired pointer mix who is always looking for new friends. She had TPLO surgery last year so I am also comfortable with post-op restrictions!! I work from home daily so I can care for your pet all day!! Whatever your pet needs I can accommodate!! Agreeable to following specific needs if required. Our home is non-smoking and no kiddos!! Fully fenced backyard!! Willing to transport to local dog parks if preferred for daily activity!! Instructions are preferred so we make you pet feel at home!!
“Mirte was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly caring with our home and pets. She went above and beyond in every way, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pets clearly adored her, and it was obvious she treated them like her own. We came home to a spotless house, happy animals, and everything handled perfectly. Mirte is reliable, kind, professional, and truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever worked with. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets and home. Five stars all around!”

About: My childhood pets were a 180 lbs Great Dane/English Mastiff mix and an 8 lbs chihuahua, so I can care for dogs of any size. I have done countless hours of research on animals, especially dogs and their behavior, since I was young. I am great at keeping dogs calm and love taking them on walks and can work on leash training for those than need it, weather permitting. If the weather isn't cooperating, I have multiple indoor activities to keep your pet occupied as well! I brush shedding animals and I give baths. I give massages to dogs, especially seniors and our buff babies, which has a myriad of benefits. Administering medications isn't a problem for me at all, and neither is caring for animals with behavioral issues. I love taking and sharing pictures and will keep you in the loop to whatever degree you would like. I worked at a kennel for a year, but the care of the dogs was rapidly and I could no longer be a part of it, so I recently left. I also volunteer at the Kentucky Humane Society. I recently quit my job at a boarding facility because I didn't like how the animals were being treated and I am in the process of creating a business dedicated to petsitting. I'd spend majority of my time with your pet, whether it is at your home, at the park, going on a car ride, or some other adventure. There may be times I leave, but I won't be gone longer than 4 hours at a time, or I will inform you beforehand if it's unavoidable. I will care for your pet how you instruct me to and will not do anything without your express permission, which I will ask for before I stay with your pet. I have a basic questionnaire that I will ask you to fill out beforehand as well so I can keep it in my records. For animals under 15 lbs (other then hybrid indoor/outdoor cats), I will never leave them outside alone just for the off chance there are predatory animals. If there is no physical fence, the same rule applies for animals of all size, even if there is one of those invisible fences. If the feels-like temperature is over 85 degrees or under 35 degrees no matter the size or breed, I do not take the dogs on walks and I limit the time they are outside at a time. Certain sizes, breeds, and medical conditions may make the cut off temperatures change (i.e. pugs will not be walked when it's 80 degrees). How hot the concrete is also plays a part, but I base that on how it feels on my own hand. Animals that enjoy it receive massages, especially seniors and our buff pets. I brush them, play with them, and I have indoor games and activities for them for when the weather isn't cooperating, many that provide mental stimulation. When I'm petsitting, I treat the animal exactly as I would want my own to be treated--for them to follow instructions and to engage with them. When it comes to emergencies and vet visits, that is a case by case basis and if you want more information, please contact me!
“Anamaria did an in-home sit for us during our wedding weekend. She was an excellent house guest and made sure we could celebrate without having any worries at all about our dog! We got pictures and updates and came home to a clean house and happy, healthy pup!”
“Rebekah did an incredible job both house sitting and dog sitting our dog Arthur! We were so nervous to leave our fur baby and she made us feel so comfortable with her sweet updates! We highly recommend her services!”
About: I have been caring for animals for 8 years plus counting and it's by far my favorite kind of job. I'm very comfortable with reactive dogs and can use my training to help better understand their behaviors. I have experience with senior dogs and post surgery care. I am comfortable with pet medication and administering when needed for pets. I'm currently working part-time, so my time is very open. I'm available anytime after 1pm during the weekdays and anytime after 12pm during the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and live near a park with trails. I also have 2 crates, a small and large one, if your baby prefers to have their own space. Lots and lots of toys for heavy chewers.
About: Lifetime dog lover, long-time owner of a pair of rambunctious huskies (RIP), not yet ready for new ones myself, so here I am looking for canine company through caring for yours! When I’m hosting, I’m home full time. I do this because I love spending time quality time with dogs and miss having my own. Your dog will have steady companionship, multiple long walks, and consistent one-on-one engagement. If I do step out, it’s brief and I’m always happy to include them in outings when appropriate. Care is always individualized. I have a strong affinity for intelligent, medium to large breeds, especially working-type and high-energy dogs who need exercise and engaged play. I genuinely enjoy dogs with personality who want to think, move, and interact. A crate is available if needed. I'll follow your routine and use what works best for your dog.
About: Hi friends, I was a dog owner myself, she passed many years ago. It was a VERY hard time for our family. I'm single with no children. Pet sitting gives me so much joy. My passion is people, I love being able to help pet owners leave home with not a care in the world. I will happily provide references, I feel like all my clients are family now. I promise to love your babies as much as you do! I wouldn't have left my minpin Ginger with just anyone and neither should you! I'm happy to help with other areas of your home while your gone. Again, my goal is that you get to leave home and enjoy time away with zero worries. I currently work full time but depending on the location I can run home for lunch. I also work from home 1 day a week. I only watch 4 legged humans in their OWN home... so their safety and environment will be just the same as if you were home with them ♡

FAQs for House Sitting - Paoli
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 42 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Paoli. 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 Paoli 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 Paoli 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 Paoli 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
