“Carlee took great care of my cats while I was away on a trip! She was responsive and took lots of pics of my fur babies. I felt so relieved knowing my cats were with someone I could trust!!”
“You have yourself a repeat customer for life! Sissy already wants you to come walk her again! Definitely the most patient and caring person ive ever met with dogs! Mine already is missing you!”
“Destiney and Ben are dreams to have care for your fur children. Very attentive, constant and consistent updates, very personal and professional, and supply many photos! Also very responsive to schedule changes and changes in the care my cats need (both of my cats have medical conditions, one has a prescription diet and needs medication). If I could give greater than five stars I would. Will definitely book again in the future”

About: Hi! I'm 24 years old and attended Marshall University. I've always loved animals and enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply giving them the attention and care they deserve, I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm reliable, caring, and excited to meet new furry friends. I look forward to helping provide your pets with a safe, fun, and loving experience while giving you peace of mind whenever you're away. I’m currently just in school I’m not working part time, so I would have lots of time to watch your pets!! I would be available at different days throughout the week it just depends!! Just message me!! I have a pretty decent sized apartment, I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a small yard around the apartment complex! I go on walks all the time around Huntington and campus!! I love Ritter Park as well!!
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and adore them! Dogs, cats, and more. I’ve had experience of taking care of/ petting sitting my families pets for a few years. Love taking care of them <3 I have a very open schedule as a tattoo apprentice and I am free most evenings and mornings. I can fit pet sitting around my job. I have a fenced in yard and four sweet doggies. They are crate trained so they don’t get into stuff at night or while I’m away. I also have two cats who lay around on heated pads and live the spoiled good life. All of the animals get plenty of treats and spoilings! 🤭
“Jackie is our family’s go-to! She’s kind, communicative, and so good with our furry family—even the very fussy chihuahua mix who runs the show. I can’t suggest or thank her enough.”
“Shelby was so awesome with our cat Shiloh! She is a great communicator and easy to get a hold of when you need her. She was great at providing updates on how our kitty was doing while we were away!”
“I never leave reviews, but Anna did such a great job taking care of my boy that I had too. Anna provided quick replies to my questions and showed up on time as requested. My pup needs some medications, so I was a bit concerned about leaving my dog in the care of someone else. The fact that Anna is a Registered Nurse put me at ease. She payed very close attention to detail in providing the medication my pup requires. Anna went above and beyond the instructions I had for her. She was even kind enough to water one of my exotic plants. My dog is very big at 158 lbs. She interacted with my dog very well. My dog definitely enjoyed her company. Anna has good energy, is very professional, responsible and trustworthy. I 100% recommend Anna. She will definitely be my go to for all my future dog care needs.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have hands-on experience with daily feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ pets while they’re out of town, making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their happiness and well-being. As a teacher, my schedule allows me to be home in the evenings and on weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive and consistent pet care. I’m able to stick closely to feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and any special routines your pet needs. Because my time outside of school is flexible and dependable, I can give your pet the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I provide loving, hands-on care tailored to each pet’s needs. At home, I have two cats and a dog, so I’m very familiar with balancing playtime, exercise, and daily routines. I make sure my pets get plenty of attention and enrichment through play, and I walk my dog multiple times a day to keep him happy and healthy. I bring the same level of care, patience, and dedication to every pet I look after, treating them as if they were my own.
About: My passion and love for animals began at a very early age. I decided to pursue that passion professionally wise. I currently work as a surgical veterinary assistant and it’s my passion. I work well in high intensity situations and calm ones too. I am certified in Veterinary Emergency and Critical care, and certified in Fear Free. I am currently in school to become a Veterinary Technician as well! I currently am not working so I have a lot of free time and I am very flexible with working with your schedule for your fur babies! Being a fear free provider is very important to me. I do everything to make sure your animal is comfortable. I will always keep myself and furry friends safe. I am willing to accommodate to owners needs for their pets. My priority is to keep your pet happy and safe!
About: I have a very happy Goldendoodle who is 5 years old. She’s very friendly and I take her on lots of adventures! I’ve done house sitting and pet care for the past 4 years. I’m happy to take your pups on walks, to play at the dog park or visit them at your home, whichever you prefer! I was in a house with a yard, but I recently moved to an apartment. There are very nice parks within 2 miles of my apartment and there’s a small dog park on site. I can take your dogs for walks 2-3 times per day from 7 a.m. through 8 p.m., weather permitting My apartment complex has a small dog park and there are bigger parks nearby for on-leash walks. Also, if you’re okay with it, I can take them to a big dog park in Garland.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Alum Creek on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 150 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Alum Creek. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Alum Creek 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.

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.
