About: I often look after the dogs of our neighbors and friends. Each time after a walk or a bathroom break, I would pat her head and say, "Good girl." She was always overjoyed. While you're at work, I'll look after your pets—feeding them, refreshing their water, taking them for walks, letting them run around outside on the grass, taking them out to relieve themselves, and more. I have three kids, so once they're off to school, I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekdays from 8:30am to 2:00pm. I have a big fenced yard to keep your fun baby company. I live in a very safe community with friendly neighbors. I also have a large fenced backyard where dogs can play. My family doesn't have any pets at home.

“I highly recommend Taylor as a pet sitter/pet walker. Taylor is extremely punctual and has a wonderful relationship with the dogs. Not only does he take them outside for walks, but he also sends pictures to provide updates. Taylor's professionalism and care for the pets make him an excellent choice for anyone in need of pet sitting or walking services.”

About: I have been pet sitting animals in homes for about 10 years. I enjoy walking with them, playing and snuggles! I ensure waste is cleaned up and feeding schedules are maintained. I also keep your home clean and maintained while you’re away! I currently work full time M-F so weekend work is preferable, I am also available after 330pm most weekdays. I can be in your home with your pets on weekends, full time, beginning Friday late afternoon.That being said I can house sit during the week, just keep in mind I work full time and therefor able to hang out with your pets before and after work. I provide care in your home where your pet is most comfortable. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide playtime and snuggles and also enjoy walking when caring for dogs. Additionally I also make sure to keep communication open, should I notice something out of the ordinary or just want to share a moment or photo! I am sure to respect your home during my stay, in return I ask the respect is reciprocated by providing a safe, clean environment and open communication.

“I hate leaving my boys, as I’m sure most pet parents would agree. But Brandon and his wife took such good care of my babies. He reported in twice a day with pictures. They always looked happy in the pics, and were obviously well taken care of. I will definitely contact Brandon again when the need arises.”

About: I have been a lifelong lover of all animals in every shape, size, and species! I grew up with a dog and cat and now I have my own dog and 3 cats! I did long term pet sitting for two years while in college and now I’m ready to return full time! Animals have always been my passion in life so I cannot wait to meet yours! I also previously worked in a vet clinic so I now have knowledge in animal handling, grooming, administrating medication, and a basic understanding of common pet issues/illnesses. Fitness is also a passion of mine so I would love to take your pets on fun, long walks around the area! I am also a portrait photographer on the side so you are guaranteed to get good photos of your beautiful fur babies! My own dog, Mateo, has always been a spirited pup to say the least! With that I have gained some knowledge with basic dog training. Have a puller on your walks? I can help with it! Need some help with basic commands for a feisty puppy? I got you covered! My goal now is to solely focus on providing pet care and start building my photography business! I am available anytime Monday-Friday but also open to weekends. I love a good schedule so I would absolutely love to have reoccurring clients! I absolutely care for your pets as if they were my own. I know how hard it can be to have to leave your precious babies in someone else’s care but I promise to update you every step of the way! From when I arrive to your home, during the visit, and when I am leaving your home. If you have any questions during the visit I will be able to answer you right away! My top priority is not only your pet but also making sure you feel comfortable every step of the way.

“Nicole was absolutely outstanding. She checked on, fed, and loved on our two kitties while we were gone for 2 weeks. She took such good care of them! She went above and beyond - took in our packages, took up our trash, and even cleaned up kitty litter that the cats tracked through the house. Her communication was amazing and she sent regular updates and pictures. We felt so comfortable having Nicole at our home while we were gone. We will 1000% have Nicole take care of our animals again!”

About: I’ve worked with dogs for over 20 years, with much of that time spent walking and handling shelter dogs—especially those that are anxious or unsure. That experience taught me how important calm, structure, and consistency are in helping dogs feel more confident. I run Trail & Heel, a dog training and adventure-based care service in Louisville. I focus on practical, real-world training—whether that’s working with puppies, improving leash manners, or helping nervous dogs build confidence. Every walk and interaction is handled with intention. For me, care and training go hand in hand, with the goal of helping dogs become calmer, more reliable, and easier to live with. I'm a dog trainer, I fit in Rover appointments among by client work when it's possible to do so. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life, so it fits naturally into my routine. Care is always tailored to the dog and the service, but the approach stays consistent: calm, structured, and intentional. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine—feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions—while also reinforcing good habits like leash manners, calm greetings, and settling. In my home, I keep the environment structured and low-stress. Dogs get supervised time, appropriate exercise (including trail walks when it’s a good fit), and clear boundaries so they can relax and succeed. I only take on a small number of dogs at a time to make sure each one gets the attention they need.

“Ian did an amazing job watching Crew while we were away. Throughout every step of the process he was communicative and exceptionally prompt! He asked great questions about our dog's care before we left and reached out to us while watching him with updates and pictures. When we met in person, it was clear Ian and Crew got along great. Wonderful experience, we will use Ian again!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life from frenchies to shelties. I’ve worked in a dog store for over a year. Let me give you peace of mind while you’re away. On a weekly basis I have a flexible schedule that will allow for me drop by to check in and love on your babies. I work from home on most Wednesdays which allows me easy access to swing by. I will always make sure to give your pet lots of love and attention just like I would my own. Making sure to go the extra mile to let you know that I’m there to care in the ways you need!

About: I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with plenty of space outdoors, perfect for the frequent pit stop and play time. Just down the street from me is a beautiful dog park, with lots of space to run, play, and socialize with other dogs! I would be thrilled to provide a comfortable and safe environment for your loved ones, worry free for both you and them, while on vacation. I'm an animal lover and can promise you they'll receive lots of attention, play time, and affection, while you are off enjoying some time to yourself! My current schedule is flexible and allows me time for drop in visits, daily walks and overnight boarding for most of the day and evening. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. In a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that seems out of the ordinary, and I’ll always communicate with you if I have any concerns. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My partner Jacob and I have 3 yorkies, a cat, a mini pig, and hedgehogs. We have experience with reptiles and arachnids as well. We love all critters, no matter the species! Our home is quite large, with space to give shy animals some quiet time if need be, but we also have no qualms with sharing our beds or couches if your pets want to snuggle up. Our yard is fully fenced, and our animals are always monitored when outdoors. Rest assured, we will treat your babies like our own! I work from home, and have the luxury of creating my own schedule on a daily basis. As such, I’m able to spend as much time as I need to with your babies. My large backyard is fully fenced. Outdoor time is always monitored personally, even if it’s raining. We have three yorkies in our home, and a mini pig who stays outside (except during the winter). We allow animals on our furniture, if they want to join us, or they can lounge where they’re comfortable. We have enough space to keep animals separated in different rooms if the client requests it.

About: I grew up with multiple pets, we often called it the "Cook Family Zoo". I've helped take care of many cats, dogs, turtles, fish and even ferrets at one point! I currently have two dogs a terrier/cattle dog mix and a German shepherd/lab mix puppy! They both are rescues and love to cuddle. I volunteer with a local dog rescue and am a proud foster fail. :) I’m passionate about protecting all furry friends and finding the perfect home for each loving animal. I love all animals, big or small, and do my best to be flexible and communicate with you quickly and thoroughly. I hope you will consider me to help take care of your loved ones and I will be sure to give them lots of love while you're away. Currently working full time but have availability on weekends and most evenings to help out! I also have flexibility at work so depending on your needs can make drop in visits and walks during the day. I work from home occasionally too so I can usually be flexible as needed. If visiting your home I would respect your wishes around routine training, diet and behavior. I typically provide photos and/or text updates of your pet so you know they’re doing well and we’ll looked after even when you’re not able to be there!

About: What started off as a favor for a friend turned into a genuine love for all pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the guilt and sadness that comes with leaving your fur baby with a stranger, so it is my mission to make sure that the owner as well as the pet feel comfortable enough to put their trust in me. I am a student with a part time job. I have available time for any animal with any need. Evenings or even night walks are perfect. Boundaries are important, not only for the owner before the pet as well. That is always my top priority. As well as treating a pet as my own.

About: I've always loved dogs! As a dog-owner myself, I know the stress of leaving a pet at home, both during the workday and when on vacation, but also what it's like to have the peace of mind that comes with a trustworthy pet sitter. I love giving pet parents that security of knowing their baby is happy and safe while they're away. I have cared for dogs ranging from the puppy stage to senior years. I have experience providing medical care to dogs ranging from post-surgical care such as monitoring for adverse reactions to anesthesia, to facilitating recovery from ACL repair surgery by providing heat/ice to the affected leg and following surgeon's orders for increasing walk length on a variety of terrains to help the dog regain muscle strength. Most recently, I have cared for a senior dog who was partially deaf and had arthritis. That experience taught me to intentionally stay in his eyesight, and to tailor the pace and length of walks and playtime to meet his gait and energy level. My full-time work allows me to be available on a variety of weekdays, evenings, and weekends. Depending on the day, I am either very flexible and can come whenever your pup needs me, or am more limited with evening-only availability. So just ask! I only walk dogs in an escape-proof device such as a Martindale or chain ("choke") collar. I will not walk a dog in a flat collar or harness, even if the device is advertised as 'escape proof' or the dog does not have a history of escaping. This is for my peace of mind as well as yours, and for the safety of your fur baby. In addition, when I am walking your dogs, they are my first priority. I am not on my phone so I can pay attention to my surroundings and the dogs in order to maximize safety for both of us. Finally, to make my time with your fur baby as positive as possible, I require a meet and greet with you and your pet before coming to care for them by myself.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - River Bluff

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,156 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across River Bluff. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in River Bluff. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
