“Patti was wonderful with our pups! We really appreciate the care she took with our fur babies. Great communication on how everything was going. She even collected mail, ran the dishwasher and took the garbage to the curb for pickup. We will definitely be calling on her again”
“She is a true gift for people who don’t want to leave their babies or have a fear of the unknown of traveling without them… Kimberly cared for our senior pitbull, cat, and hamster for 5 days while we were out of town and stayed in our home. She also gave our dog his medicine 2x a day & watered our plants..She sent updates and photos daily and responded quickly to my messages… we are very picky with our pets and have some odd routines with our pets as the cat and dog have to be separated and our dog can be very needy due to incontinence and separation anxiety… we felt really comfortable with Kimberly and after retuning home I can tell she gave our babies a lot of love because our dog acted like we had never even left, he was bouncy and happy instead of his usual moping like he has done in the past after boarding or staying with family and she left our house clean with almost no trace she was here.. this was a great experience and I 100% recommend her.. I wish we had found her years ago.. there are no words to describe how happy & grateful we are.. will definitely be using Kimberly again!”
“Elizabeth watched our 4 pups while we were out-of-state and was absolutely phenomenal! Really the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. Took fantastic care of both the pups and our home! She took time out of her day to take the pups to parks and even to continue working on their training while we were away. Truly loved her and will definitely be using her every time we need a sitter for our pups!”
“The communication was amazing! She takes incredible photos of our girls, helped keep my garden alive, encountered an unexpected issue with internet connection and our house was spotless. She even adjusted her schedule when our flight was delayed 4 times! Thank you so much ♥️”
“Bri did a great job following all instructions for our old man Bo. He was happy and healthy and well cared for. She gave updates and sent photos each day. Our home was well taken care of as well with no messes left behind. She was very sweet to get to know us at the meet and greet. Very sweet person and will definitely contact her again to watch Bo!!!! Thank you so much Bri!!!”
“Charlotte is the best pet sitter we have ever had. She goes above and beyond. She kept us updated everyday with detailed texts and photos. Our pets just adored her. We will 100% use her again.”
“Brooke was amazing! She sent lots of pictures of updates of the pups. I felt good knowing my baby was being taken care of so well. I would definitely use Brooke again in the future for any pet sitting/house sitting needs. She left my home in better shape than she found it I appreciate her very much!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sahara! This was the very first time I left my dogs with someone outside of my immediate family, so I was naturally nervous. From the moment I left for vacation, she made me and my fur babies feel completely at ease. She was caring, reliable, attentive, and treated my dogs like they were her own. Thank you!!!!!!”
About: I recently lost my dog of 10 years in March 2026, and I would love to share my love with other lovely fur babies! As a social worker, I know how to care for others, and understand the importance of animals as part of our family and mental well-being, and I treat them as such. I have experience watching all types of pets and experiences with pets who are diabetic or have special medical needs. I'm currently working a flexible job where I am virtual and only come in person a few hours a week. So I can stay the night at your house, or in my own home based on your preference. My flexible schedule makes it easy for me to prioritize your pet when needed. I am open to staying at your house overnight, but I can also stay at my own home based on your preference. I have cared for pets living in a house with a yard and without as well as in an apartment in the city. I know that these environments can make pet care different, so I make sure to keep to scheduled walks, potty breaks, playtime, and outside times consistentently.
About: I am a full time professional in the law enforcement field that offers house sitting and pet sitting to the citizens of Hall County. Trust that your sweet babies (pets) are in caring and trustworthy hands while you are out and about enjoying your vacation, work trip, etc. I have been pet sitting on an “as needed” basis for approximately 3 years now. References available upon request. Any special requests? Feel free to ask and I will tell you if that is something I can/am willing to do. Rapid response time, generally within a few hours but occasionally within 24 hours depending on my work schedule. If you have any further questions, feel free to send me a message and ask. Thank you for reading this far, have a good day ☺️ I am currently working full-time with Tuesdays as 12 hour work days (8A-8p). Outside of that I do 3-5 workouts a week. I ensure that when I am scheduled to love your animals any other time is spent with them. I have pet sit in 2-3 regular’s homes for the past 8 years and aside from that have done drop-in visits daily for others at their home. Specialty diets, hiding the medications in pill pockets, taking walks, etc - I have done it.
About: I have essentially cared for a variety of animals my entire life. I have a great deal of experience with many different situations and needs. I am at your service to align myself with your pets needs and to be sure to be clear on expectations. It brings me GREAT joy in life to care for animals of ALL types! Happy to be of service to anyone in need of care!😊 I do petcare work part-time while also engaging in my mobile spa work on occasion. I desire to engage more in the petcare industry as I find it all so fulfilling! *DISCLAIMER:As much as I WISH I could.. I am unable to accept large or high energy animals into my home. I live in the same home as my elderly father whom I help care for. *I CAN however accept very small (mostly quiet) pets into my home as it is spacious but shared. *When housesitting requests are booked, I am able to care for a wide range of pets. Even most EXOTIC ANIMALS I have a great deal of experice with. My schedule is rather flexible if able to care for pets via housesitting. As much as I wish it was, my home isn't ideal. I HAVE noted over the years, MOST animals PREFER their own home verses an unfamiliar space. Especially kitty cats!=D ☆I am here to be sure your animal/animals are WELL loved and cared for. I have had such love, adoration, and respect for animals ever since I can remember. It is truly an HONOR to serve my clients and care for their adorable pets! My truest passion in life.♡
“Mckayle was very attentive to our dogs! She was willing to go above and beyond, kept our house in order and took great care of our boys! We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future if we need a house sitter! Thank you Mckayle for doing an amazing job!”
“Patty was great as usual! She communicates really well and always sends awesome pics. Pippin had a little limp on the first day, and she let us know right away and sent videos — thankfully he was fine, but we really appreciated how on top of it she was. He was super happy when we got home, which says a lot. Way better than boarding — so glad we booked with Patty again!”
About: I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I focus on providing dependable, loving, attentive care while keeping pets relaxed and comfortable in their own environment. What sets me apart is my flexible availability, calm personality, and genuine love for animals. I’m patient with shy pets, attentive to routines and special instructions, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals rather than just “checking in.” I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets, senior pets, and pets who may need extra attention, slower walks, medications, or a little extra reassurance while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel connected and at ease while traveling. My youngest child has gone off to college, and I’ve lovingly cared for neighbors’, friends’, and family members’ fur babies for years. That’s my grand-fur-baby English Cream Golden in the photo 🥰 I have a very flexible schedule and open availability, so your pets will get lots of attention, affection, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, evenings, overnights, and holidays. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family and always try to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. During drop-in visits and walks, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. For overnight stays in a client’s home, I aim to provide a calm, comforting presence so pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets, senior pets, and administering basic medications if needed. I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual personality, energy level, and routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
“My 3 loved Rylee right away during their meet and greet. It was easy to see how much she loves animals. Rylie is conscientious, punctual, and a good communicator. I would not hesitate to rebook Rylee.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with two dogs and have spent years caring for pets for my sister, mom, friends, and their friends whenever they need a reliable sitter. I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a consistent routine, I’m committed to providing the same love and attention I would give my own pets! I’m currently pursuing my master’s degree and am highly organized, responsible, and dependable. I also live a very active lifestyle and love being outdoors, so I genuinely enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and helping them stay active and happy. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience for every dog in my care. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to their schedule, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and receive any special care instructions provided by the owner. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being to ensure they’re happy and healthy. When caring for a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I keep things clean and tidy, follow all house instructions, lock doors and secure the property, and make sure pets are safe and comfortable at all times. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

I create my own schedule so reach out and we can make a time that works for you. I’m flexible. Holidays included as well as Christmas Native to the area. I have experience with many different types of animals over the years and I have four grown children and a grandchild so I have seen a lot. I’m happy to help so reach out.
About: I’ve owned pets since I was born - dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, fish, and a hedgehog. And I’ve been dog sitting and caring for friends and families pets for as long as I can remember! My sweet 10-year-old retired greyhound recently crossed the rainbow bridge, but for over 7 years he was a big pet of my daily life - from feeding to walking to administering medication. I also own 2 sweet cats - a boy and a girl, both 2 years old. They are fed a specified amount twice a day, their nails trimmed regularly, and their litter box is scooped daily plus changed weekly. I am happy to stay with your pet overnight, drop in to play and supervise outdoor time, or walk them when needed! The more time with pets, the better!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alandale
Jolie took great care of our boy, Sheldon (9 year old, 70 pound pit mix), for a 3 nights stay in our home! She sent pictures and updates frequently and always responded to texts quickly. She also took great care of our home and honestly left it cleaner than it was before she got there. I would 100% use her again and would highly recommend her services to others. Thank you, Jolie!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Alandale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Alandale on Rover is $37.45 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 1,531 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Alandale. 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 Alandale 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 Alandale 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 Alandale 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alandale. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
