About: Dogs have lived deep in my heart for my whole life. Besides family pets, I have also taken care of my friends’ fur babies. I would love to build some more experience in pet care, but the REAL reason for this profile is that I want to spend time around dogs, simply because they’re awesome! I have a full time job, but my hours are flexible. I am able to walk or check in on your pet before or after work, or even during the day at any point. I’m very clean, organized, and neat. I can easily provide overnight care in your home if needed and you are comfortable. My work schedule is flexible, and I work in town, so I can make your needs work with mine.
About: I've grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small dogs to large breeds, as well as cats. I've also done pet sitting in the Netherlands. I'm comfortable with different personalities and routines and I'll always make sure your pet feels safe and well cared for while you're away. I currently work part-time which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care througout the week. I'm available on Wednesday, Fridays and Weekends for walks and drop in visits and I have more flexibility for pets staying in my home. I live in a three-bedroom apartment with no pets of my own, providing a quiet, clean environment for your cat. Your pet will have plenty of space to feel comfortable.
“We chose Ella to come in and care for our 4 cats twice a day while we were out of town. We returned to a clean house with well cared for kitties and clean litter boxes. Loose kitty litter was vacuumed and everything was in order. Ella updated us after each visit and was an excellent communicator. We would definitely recommend Ella and will continue to use her services in the future.”
About: Your pet deserves more than being another appointment in a busy schedule. I intentionally care for only one client at a time, allowing me to provide highly focused, unhurried and personalized attention throughout every walk or visit. Whether that means an energetic adventure, a relaxed stroll with plenty of time to explore, or extra patience for a nervous pet — I will adjust my approach to whatever makes them happiest and most comfortable. I offer a premium, concierge approach to pet care by intentionally capping my daily schedule to ensure your pet never experiences a rushed visit. Whether we are on an energetic neighborhood walk or an attentive drop-in, my flexible availability guarantees that your pet receives my absolute, undivided attention and an elite, exclusive pet care experience tailored to their exact routine. That means plenty of time for exercise, bathroom breaks, focused attention, and affection—instead of trying to squeeze your pet into an overloaded schedule. Safety is always my priority. I carefully follow your instructions, double-check doors, gates, collars, harnesses and leashes, and stay attentive to your pet’s behaviour and our surroundings throughout every walk or visit. I’ll always do my very best to keep your pet’s normal routine and provide any feeding, medication or additional care you request. With regular photo and video updates, you won’t be left wondering how things are going — you’ll be able to see for yourself 🐶

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Huntsville is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $43 per visit. 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.
There are 38 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Huntsville. About 72% of Huntsville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Huntsville 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!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 .
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.

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 .
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.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
