“Grace was amazing. I have older dogs and Grace took the time to come meet them a few times before we left. I was gone for 7 days and my dogs where treated as family. And I received nightly photos. She stayed in our home. And the house was just like we left it. Would use Grace again.”
“Elyse was amazing! I work at home and we have never left our dogs with anyone outside of the family. They require a lot of special attention. Both of neurological disorders. She was so patient, sent frequent updates and photos. I was so thankful that I did not have to worry at all. Our family will use Elyse again. Our dogs fell in love with her which is not an easy task! Thank you, Elyse. You are a blessing.”
“Super happy with our first experience using Rover and Jamie was wonderful, communicated well and our boy was content while we were away and also happy to see us. He was well cared for. Will book again!”
“She did a great job. Watched my house and dogs. Kept the house clean and the dogs happy. Very communicative and attentive. Will be recommending her to friends.”
“Charles did an outstanding job watching both my house and my dog, Lennon, for two weeks. He kept in constant communication, letting me know when he’d be away from the house and for how long. It wasn’t a must but it was really nice to have when someone is watching your house. I came home to a clean house with healthy plants, an empty dishwasher, stripped bedding and washed towels. That level of care meant a lot to my wife and I. He took great care of Lennon. He took her on long walks, sat with her outside and gave her plenty of company. Charles is a dependable professional! We’ll be hiring him again.”

About: Hello. My name is Hailey. I just graduated basic and AIT as a Combat Medic and will be staying in the area until I go to college late May. I am home all day everyday. I love animals and am willing to doggy/cat sit anytime any day. I have 3 dogs myself and love cats. I am patient and I have no trouble with bigger dogs and will provide service to the best of my abilities. I can also baby sit if needed. I currently unemployed as I will be leaving for college in late May. I am available all day everyday and can stop by at anytime to feed, potty break, or walk dogs and cats alike. I will not be able to house animals in my own home because it is my parents house. I am more than willing to doggy sit in my clients home and/or walk them around their neighborhood. I follow directions to a T and I am physical myself so I always enjoy a good dog walk and don’t mind walking bigger dogs that may need a little extra confidence.
“Almost forgot to leave a review! Kristi was great when she stayed at our house to watch Sydney for almost a week. As always, she took great care and attention while taking care of our pup and left the house in tip top shape! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Kristi is perfect!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Vine Grove
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vine Grove on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 286 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vine Grove. 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 Vine Grove 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 Vine Grove 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 Vine Grove 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.

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.
