“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!”
About: I have had many experiences with all types of animals and training techniques. I have a lot of my own animals including dogs, they are all very spoiled within reasoning. I will care for your animals like they are my own. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to take great care of your pets! Available for both stay in home and drop in visits. I will provide care for your pets in your home in their environment where they are used to their surroundings. This will allow them to feel the safety of their own home, meanwhile I am there to care for them!
“We worked with Kelsey for the second time to housesit and watch our two dogs and she was FANTASTIC!! She went above and beyond, throwing one of our dogs a little birthday party with peanut butter flavored bubbles and a homemade, doggy-safe cake! She shared so many photos and I could tell in each one that they were having a blast!! Our house is always left in great condition and possibly better than we left it and her communication is exactly what I would hope for. 10/10 would recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy person who will take great care of your home and even better care of your pups.”
About: “Hannah is your go-to pet lover! When she’s not greeting folks at the front desk and handling insurance at Baptist Health, she’s probably planning her next adventure, or spending time with her fur babies! Hannah absolutely loves to travel and has a whole crew of four-legged friends at home. She’s got two adorable Mini Aussies who are eight years old, two playful cats that are a year and a half, and even some reptiles she’s been caring for over the past five years. Growing up on a farm means she’s no stranger to looking after all kinds of animals. If you need someone to drop by and check on your pets, she’s available for morning visits between 8 11 and a.m., or after 7:30 p.m. on weekdays once she’s off work. Plus, if you give her a little heads-up, weekends can work too!” “Hannah lives in Shepherdsville and happily serves clients in Shepherdsville, Lebanon Junction, Boston, and Bardstown. Whenever you need someone to drop by and take care of your furry (or scaly!) friends, she’s got you covered.” I have a pretty set schedule that I can work around! I work M-F 11am-7:30pm in Bardstown so I can stop by before and after work! I can accommodate any requests! I don't like for pets to stay locked in a cage like most boarding facilities do. I like them to feel as if they are at home with you, if needed to be crated while they sleep I can do that as well.
“"Cat's the best Rover EVER", says Freestyle. We agree. Came early, stayed a little late, Respected our RV 100%, and we could tell she walked him thoroughly, and he loved her. She was clearly experienced with dogs and Freestyle's calm behavior after our return is a testament to her confidence with her job today. Wish she was available everywhere we travel.”
“My 2 boys had yet another wonderful visit with Kerry. Four nights of fun and play. Its nice to come home to Two happy well taken care of dogs. If you want a loving and caring person to take care of your pets, call Kerry. I will always ask her first to take care of my boys.”
“We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.”
“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.”
“Kristin was awesome with our dogs. When she came for the first meeting our dogs had no issues with her so we knew it was going to be a great fit for them. She was communicative during her stay while sitting at our home. She sent pictures and was all around a great sitter. We will definitely use Kristin again in the future!”
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and enjoy giving them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m patient, responsible, and dependable, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own family. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and keeping pets company. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide. I’m currently attending school, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make plenty of time for your pet. I’m available around my class schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep your pet supervised, and make sure they are comfortable in their environment. I’ll also provide regular updates so you can feel confident knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Younger Creek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 549 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Younger Creek. 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 Younger Creek 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 Younger Creek 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 Younger Creek 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.
