About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets … I am a work from home dog mom. My schedule allows me to be present and active with my dog, allowing for multiple breaks throughout the day as we live an active lifestyle! I have an open backyard and a lab of my own to keep your pet company. We can also crate in a separate room if needed.
“Hope is amazing!! Had a long work day and so she came for a drop in. Sat outside with them and sent pictures with their report card explaining how they did and followed all the instructions! So glad we found someone reliable to look after the babies when we need to be gone for long hours!!”
“She took such good care of my baby boy. Marshall is a very nervous and timid dog, so I knew he would probably be very scared when she came in to let him out, but she took the time to just sit with him and see that he was comfortable before taking him outside. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I have over 18 years of personal experience and am so happy to have made a career helping dogs and owners. I am home full time and have the help of my kids, as well as our two dogs. We ❤️ dog psychology and behavior. We provide supervision, exercise and play. Your dog will be interacting with our “pack” of friendly dogs and family. Manners and house training will be enforced in a positive atmosphere. We have a fenced in yard, indoor fencing and gates to separate dogs if needed. We offer meet & greets, as well as curb side drop off and pickup. You don’t even have to get out of your car if you prefer! We are conveniently located, approximately 10 minutes from I-65 and the Scottsville rd exit (Exit 22), with lots of space to be a dog!
About: Hi! My name is Addie and I love animals! I have two dogs, three cats, and a horse of my own! I have worked at a vet clinic now for 3 years in my home town! When I am not in the clinic you can find me at WKU where I am studying animal science with a pre-vet concentration! I also love to spend my down time at the shelter in Bowling Green! Here I love on the cats and take shelter dogs for walks! I grew up on a farm with many animals and have grew to love all of them! During my job as a vet assistant I have learned how to work with all different demeanors and personalities when it comes to animals! I have experience with timid pups, outgoing animals, energetic animals, puppies, and so much more! I look forward to meeting your fur babies! In-between my classes at Western I love to spend time with animals! It provides me with a mental break from my schools and studies and gives me something to look forward to! When I am home during college breaks I spend most of my time working and carrying for animals at the clinic. However, when I have days off my favorite thing to do is to take my dogs for a hike. My house when I am not living in the dorm at school consist of two indoor cats, an indoor dog, an outdoor cat, and an outdoor dog! All of my animals have grew up together and get along with other pets just fine! I do however take them out on a leash to ensure they don’t get scared or run off!
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I have a 2 year old little boy. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.
About: I’ve been a pet parent for almost my entire life. I’m also a nurse and a certified wildlife rehabber. I love all the critters and seeing them happy and cared for. I’m currently working part time on Mondays and Tuesdays, but intend to make pet sitting my full time job. I also volunteer at a wildlife rescue part time during the week. For the most part, I’m pretty flexible. I have a fenced in yard for stays at my house. I’m happy to cater to your pets needs at their home as well. I have my own senior dog, so I’m accustomed to spoiling.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over 6 years and you can count on me to be reliable and caring. I’m great with all kinds of animals and always make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I am in graduate school but only have class for 3 hours in the morning and clinic 2 day a week so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I will be willing to take dogs on walks and play with all animals and make sure they are happy and fed. I love all animals and would be willing to follow daily activities you partake in with your pets!
“She did a late night and short notice drop in for my boy who was barking and having anxiety and our friend was unreachable. She helped him even tho he was scared since he hadn’t meet her, but she took time and he went to her so well and calmed him down. Even tho I wasn’t there, I saw how sweet and patient she was with him on the camera and I just knew she was great with our boy and pets in general! She saved us a ton of stress! ❤️ definitely will ask her to help in the future and recommend to others.”
About: I have had dogs for most of my life. At a very young age I fell in awe with my four legged friends! I have cared for my own dogs from puppies till their senior years of life, with care and compassion. I have three amazing dogs currently one is young (Shasta) and the two are my seniors (Phelan and Joey). I have rescued most of my pets, and I have had the ability to train and rehabilitate some. Every single one of them have always had the utmost care, love and respect individually, no matter the breed. I am currently working as a mobile notary and set my own schedule, which allows me the flexibility and time needed to meet the needs of pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to trust someone other than yourself to meet the needs and care of your fur babies. I will follow your directions and guidance to always make sure that I am meeting the specific requirements of care and need for each one of your pets individually. Communication is key!
About: I have had two jobs in different dog daycare/boarding places. I also have a degree in vet assistant. I have volunteered at the local shelter and love it. I am currently working part time and have usually plenty of time in the early morning or late afternoon. My schedule does change weekly so there may be days I’m more flexible than others. I have one sweet little pup who is in training currently. My favorite thing is just being able to cuddle with her and spend time with her.
About: Experienced Pet Caregiver with Hands-On Puppy Raising Experience, Reliable Feeding and Walking Schedules, and a Strong Commitment to Loving, Attentive Pet Care. Dogs have been apart of my daily routine my entire life so any aspect of taking care of them has been experienced by me! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and experience caring for animals every day. I recently graduated from undergrad and am free all summer before starting graduate school, so I have plenty of time to give pets consistent attention and care. I provide a safe, clean, and caring environment for pets in clients’ homes while following their routines closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I also have three dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and understanding their needs.
About: I’ve trained and taken care of many pets in the past and I love animals so much I figured it would be a great idea to pet sit for multiple people and pets. I understand that all pets have different personalities, just let me know and I will do whatever is needed to keep them comfortable and happy. I will care for your pet like it’s my own, I consider myself to be good with all types of pets. I’ll run around with them in the yard or if they like being lazy in the house, that’s okay too! I’m able to care for puppies, old, huge, little, sick, or hyper. I can’t wait to meet and care for your pets!! I am currently self employed so my schedule is very flexible! I will have plenty of time to care for your pups as much as you/they need! I have found that pups have less anxiety when they’re in their own home but I am more than willing to provide pet care in my home! Also I know pricing on here can be a little weird, we can discuss whatever is comfortable for you.
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was 11. I was told I had to do all the puppy chores if I wanted a puppy so I’ve always walked, bathed, feed, and played with them as much as possible. I love all dogs no matter the shape or size. I also live on a big farm where they would be able to play and run all day long. I currently work a full-time job three days a week. It can depends on my schedule, but I get my schedule months in advance, so I’m available on the days that my calendar says I’m available and I’m normally available every other weekend. I do go to college but I’m online this semester so I’ll be home the days I don’t work. We have all kinds of toys and room for them to play. I live in a neighborhood. I don’t have a fenced in yard but they would be able to run all day as they pleased and run inside as they please and go on fun trips and do all that kind of stuff while they’re with me my parents also have a big farm so there might be days where I decide to go out there and I could take your pups with me and they can run and run and play all day long on the farm.I also never mind to bath them if they get dirty!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Russellville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.
