“This was our first experience with Cassidy and we are very happy with her. She sent plenty of photos of Buddy, took him out for walks and took good care of him. Buddy seemed very happy to be with her. Her communication throughout the process was always very prompt. We will definitely use her help again and wholeheartedly recommend her!”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from dogs and cats to reptiles and amphibians, I've care for most! Being aware and responsive to your pets needs is key! I do contract work so my schedule is flexible most of the time. Generally up late so don't mind odd hours. Also available for early mornings as well, schedule can usually made to accommodate. I have reliable transportation and can travel whenever needed. I'm comfortable and experienced in giving pets medicine or injection if need be, and I'm willing to adapt to whatever needs your pets may have.
“5/5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Allison was absolutely incredible caring for our four animals for the week! She checked in daily with updates and sent several wonderful images, which gave us total peace of mind. She went above and beyond by providing treats and giving them tons of cuddles. We will definitely ask her to watch them again! Highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve grown up around a variety of pets and have experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable learning each pet’s routine and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I also have experience with simple pet training and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Most importantly, I’ll treat every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I am a college student with a car so I often have room in my schedule at various points in the day where I can look after your animals. I will keep you updated at all times on your pets wellbeing, I may be overly cautious at times but I always think it is better to be careful then careless. If I am in your home I will leave it exactly as I left it and I will ask for what rooms are approved for me to be whithin.
“Kat was amazing! She’s not only just a cool person, but our dogs took to her immediately. We appreciate the communication while we were away - including pics of the pups lounging the day away. I will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I’ve had a dog and a cat of my own for 11 years. I know how to take care and love all types of pets! I’m currently working part time. Therefore I am able to fit in pet sitting any day of the week on my schedule, I have plenty free time! I will take your pets on walks, play with them so they can get their needed enrichment, feed them, and take them out to go potty!
About: About Me Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I do professionally. I own a pet-sitting business serving Central Kentucky. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with multi-pet households, senior pets, animals with special routines, and pets who need a little extra patience to become comfortable with someone new. I’m also a lifelong animal owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets. I pay attention to the little things—changes in appetite, behavior, bathroom habits, mobility, or anything else that seems unusual—and I believe in keeping owners updated so they can relax while they’re away. What You Can Expect I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and care instructions, maintaining your pet’s normal routine, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, providing playtime and companionship, and giving each pet the individual attention they need. I especially enjoy working with animals who may be shy, particular, anxious, or simply need time to decide that a new person is trustworthy. I don’t expect every pet to immediately love me—I’m happy to earn their trust at their pace. Safety & Communication Your pet’s safety comes first. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep a close eye on the animals in my care, and communicate promptly if I notice anything concerning. You’ll also receive updates so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s hands. My goal is for you to come home to happy animals who have been well cared for and whose normal routine has been disrupted as little as possible. Whether you have one spoiled house cat, an energetic dog, a senior who likes to take things slowly, or a whole household of four-legged family members, I’d be happy to care for them. Although I work as a substitute teacher, there are many days I am home part or all of the day. While I have a generic routine, I like to know the pets usual routine so I can cater to that as much as is possible. I have a small fenced yard, but most importantly, my apartment is set up with pet safety in mind. I have gates and latches to prevent accidental runners, my cat has her own space to keep away from other animals, I have the space and ability to separate dogs if needed. Ultimately I treat them like my own. They are welcome in my bed, have free run of the common areas, have lots of toys... I am always up for snuggles and fun!
About: - There has never been a point in my life where I did not have a dog and a cat as a pet, so I have been surrounded by them for as long as I can remember. - I moved out of my parents house and now I don’t have a dog of my own. I honestly just need to be around some dogs because they just make me so happy. So, that’s another reason I want to start pet sitting in Lexington! - I am obsessed with dogs and cats because they are so cute and lovable. - I've dog-sat and cat-sat before and loved it. I have work during the day, but am available after 5pm and all day on the weekends. I can stop by before work, during my lunch, and anytime after I get off. I can also work from home if needed if your pet requires more frequent walks / check ins. I am very flexible, so whenever I am needed, I can most likely be there. I am able to do whatever is needed. I am totally a dog and cat person so I will be very happy just being in the presence of either. I can take them on several walks, show them love, cuddle with them and play with them.
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years. I was so lucky to grow up in a home that was the local Noah’s Arc. This childhood formed my commitment and love to animals. About 20 years ago, I decided to enter the world of pure bred dogs and have been an avid exhibitor and breeder of Pointers and Ridgebacks focused always on good temperaments and health. I love dogs and really believe it’s important that each animal I care for, feels at home, comfortable, pampered, exercised and loved. I have 4 dogs that are super casual and it has been very easy to bring animals into my home. I will only take 1 or 2 dogs at a time, as I want to be able to provide the best care possible for them. Your animals are treated as though they are mine and the care and love they will experience can only be exceeded by you. It’s always stressful for animals to be away from their families, so the more I can do to relieve this stress, the better I feel. I always tease my clients that their dogs may come home a little spoiled. I’m very much available all day really to take care of the dogs as my schedule is very flexible. In addition my brother lives with me and he helps me take care of the dogs. There is always a person at our house while your dog will be visiting. I also offer a military discount for those that have or are serving our beautiful country. I do not work outside of the home, which provides me with a lot of flexibility to provide dedicated care to your pets all day. I think it's important dogs that stay at my house receive the same amount of attention as they would at home and as my dogs do. I also believe it's important not to disrupt their daily routine, so I work closely with owners to understand each Dog needs.
“Glenn was outstanding! He gave us daily updates on Scruffy and being this was the first time we had used a sitter, he allivated all worry and concern with his very apparent love and concern for animals. In addition, our dog being diabetic, we were concerned about the administering of insulin and the need to adhere to a strict diet. Glenn understood all our needs, and is proficient in caring for diabetic dogs. I found a permanent sitter for Scruffy and look forward to worry-free vacations! Please don't hesitate to use Glenn. (unless it is a date we want him....lol) You won't be sorry.”
“Melissa was fabulous with our fur babies. 2 dogs and 2 cats. She stayed at our house and everything was great when we got back. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. It’s hard to find good people to stay at your own house and we definitely be calling on her again ?”
“Emily was a wonderful dogsitter for our 13 year old golden Molly! She patiently followed our food/meds/treats schedule to a T :) Molly looked happy & the photos/updates were perfect!”

I understand that pets are more than just animals—they’re family! Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, which is why I prioritize communication, reliability, and treating every animal as if they were my own. I’ll make sure you receive updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and make sure their pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular pictures and updates so you can feel confident knowing your furry family members are in caring hands! 🐾❤️
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years through family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping dogs on their normal routines.

About: Hi! I'm a 32-year-old lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities, sizes, and needs. I've had dogs in my life since I was a child, and I've spent years dog sitting for friends and family. I'm also a proud dog mom to my Australian Shepherd, Nimbus, who I've had for five years. Nimbus is a special-needs dog, so I've learned firsthand how important patience, consistency, attention to detail, and understanding each dog's individual needs really are. I take great pride in making sure he's happy, healthy, comfortable, and well cared for. Being a responsible pet owner is something I take seriously. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I want you to feel just as comfortable leaving your dog with me as you would with a trusted family member. I'm dependable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. I also have my own reliable transportation, making it easy for me to accommodate pet care needs. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or a little extra patience and attention, I'll treat them with the same love and care I give to my Nimbus. Your pets deserve more than someone just showing up to feed them. They deserve someone who genuinely cares. And that's exactly what I offer! 🐶❤️ I have open availability for sitting, boarding, walking, feeding, playtime or whatever your pet needs! I would love to even take your dogs to the dog park and maybe get a pup cup! I have a large fenced in back yard and I live in a nice and safe neighborhood. I can call, FaceTime & take pictures for you anytime, so you know your dog is happy & safe!

Erica did great! Will definitely have her back! Our dog Coco, seemed to warm up to Erica right away, normally Coco is slow to make friends. Erica sent photos and texts that were reassuring, and kept me up on what was going on. Looking forward to her staying with Coco again!
I had never left my dog Sebastian before. I was very apprehensive about contacting a house/dog sitter…but immediately upon meeting Hannah, she put my mind at ease! She is a kind, energetic, trustworthy young lady and we both (Sebastian and I) loved her immediately. Don’t hesitate about having Hannah take care of your fur babies!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Versailles is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $60 per night. 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 447 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Versailles. 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 Versailles 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 Versailles 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 Versailles 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Versailles. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
