“Alonna was great! Very responsive, good communication and took really good care of my Great Dane, Ozzy! She left my apartment in perfect condition. Will definitely book again! I highly recommend her.”
“Alex took care of my dogs amazingly!! He was very attentive and followed instructions to the tee. I loved how he sent me daily updates, photos, and brought any concerns that he had with the pups to my attention. I highly recommend him and will definately use him in the future. He cared for my pups as if they were his own and that made me very happy! He truly loved on and played with my pups when I wasn't there to do so myself. Thank you Alex!!!!”
“Brad was so easy to work with from the beginning to the end. He remembered details from our Meet & Greet six weeks ahead of time. Our dogs were at ease with him from the first time they met which was comforting since we never had a house sitter service for them before. He communicated with us daily and shared pics of them too. He also left no trace that he stayed in our house for five days! It was clean and orderly when we returned which is a wonderful perk after being away. I will definitely request and recommend him for future stays.”
“Victory did terrific job with my three dogs! Victory administered thyroid medicine for one of my dogs twice a day. Victory was also wonderful with my puppy, and total she had three dogs and did an amazing job. Thank you!”
“Once again, Mary did such a wonderful job taking care of our dogs. We enjoy our vacations so much more knowing we have nothing to worry about back at home. Our needy and hyper doggos were happy and healthy upon our return. Thank you so much, Mary!”
“Shana’s did a phenomenal job watching our 2 babies. I’ve gone on trips before but this was the first time I felt okay leaving them with a sitter. She did so well that while on vacation I booked her again for our upcoming trip.”
“Desiree was great with Madison when she watched yer for the weekend. She was also very responsive to messages and sent photos of our baby. We would definitely hire Desiree again to watch Madison.”
“Daniel stayed with our two dogs for eight days. They were happy, eating and playful all week. He has been so good for our dogs when we are gone. He took care of all their needs and gave them play time in the yard. The house and the dogs were in great condition when we returned. He even folded blankets and left the place clean. He stayed a couple extra hours when our flights continued to get delayed just in case they were cancelled, and left calming dog channel on for them when he did leave. We will definitely be booking him again.”
“A+ experience! This was our second time using Heather, and once again she took wonderful care of our Rosie. We loved the updates and had complete peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!”
“Sage was wonderful with our pets. We booked her to house sit and stay with our two dogs and two cats. She was very responsive while we were away and kept us up to date on our pets and how they were doing. We definitely recommend her and will use her again.”
About: True believer that fur babies are to us like real babies. As a pet owner, when I leave them behind, I want nothing more for them then for them to be comfortable and loved. Be assured I will do everything in my power to make your pets happy! Whatever dietary or toileting needs your pet has, I’m here to help. I’ve been pet sitting for years now, and have a pup and kitty of my own. Neighbors and friends can attest that I love to send update pictures and texts, as well as any honest unexpected encounters. I work part time 3 days a week, so Im most likely available when you need me! I am an occupational therapy assistant at a pediatric practice, where we have a therapy dog of our own. When I’m not working, and not at home, I am flexible and more than happy to take care of your pet. ☺️ I’m a clean-freak who although is not judgemental of other peoples homes (houses are made to be lived in😉), love to make sure my and your pets are best taken care of after walks, potty breaks, and eating. As a healthcare worker who loves to treat my patients, please be assured that I’m honest, genuine and most importantly, want you to be at ease leaving your Pete behind.
“Destiny was great with our two pups! We went on vacation and she stayed with them at our home. She was always super responsive, gave frequent updates and made sure to get in contact with me if anything happened outside the norm. I can’t recommend her enough! It was also very comforting to have this type of support as it was our first time away from our 6 month old puppy. Have already booked her for another sit :)”
“Amanda was always on time, even early. Gunner was comfortable with her from the very beginning and she is soft-spoken as well. Gunner never seemed to be anxious at all and they got along well. I felt comfortable leaving Gunner in Amanda’s care.”
“Julia was amazing & took such great care of our two dogs! She was so timely/organized, listened to all of our directions, and made us feel at ease! She also left our house just like we left it - highly recommend Julia!”
“Christine was amazing with our pup Honey! She took awesome care of her and kept us updated with tons of cute pictures while we were away. She was punctual and left our apartment spotless!”
“Ethan was absolutely amazing with our anxious English Bulldog for overnight dog sitting! He took the time (and multiple visits) for George to become totally comfortable! He was excellent and very knowledgeable about dogs and their personality quirks! 10/10 will be booking him again!”
“Sonna is amazing! She sent us daily pictures of our ladies and they always looked so happy. House was in spotless condition too. Will be booking again and highly recommend!”

Mary is absolutely amazing! She takes such great care of Cannoli and follows every instruction to a T, which gives us so much peace of mind. She is incredibly sweet, thoughtful, and truly treats Cannoli like her own. It’s been so hard to find someone we completely trust with our girl, and we’re beyond grateful we found Mary. We always know Cannoli is in the best hands, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. Thank you for loving our pup so well! ❤️🐾
We used Jane for the first time this past weekend house/dog sitting overnight. She was great!! From day one when we met her for a meet and greet to taking care of our Wire Fox Terriers. Very responsive. Excellent communication. Handled extras around the house like garbage cans and package deliveries. We felt very comfortable having her stay in our home and take care of our kids. I highly recommend her. Thank you Jane.
Julia continues to be an amazing dog and house sitter! She just stayed at our house and watched our dog for a week and our house looked cleaner when we got home. She is an amazing communicator and is very responsive. We received numerous updates a day with pictures and it is so clear how much she cares. She is also amazing with our dog. I will continue trusting her with our dog and house!
Edelyn was great with our Aussie! She stayed over to house-sit and keep him company, sent photos and notes to let us know he was in good hands, and was very flexible when our start & end times shifted. Communication was prompt and excellent. We highly recommend her and would book with her again!
I was so nervous about leaving my dog because my baby means everything to me, but Rhianna made the whole process so easy and stress free. She responded back quickly every time and kept me updated with pictures and messages, which I really appreciated. My dog is very bougie and likes things done a certain way, and Rhianna followed everything exactly how I asked. That meant a lot to me because not everyone pays attention to the little details. I could tell my baby was well taken care of and comfortable the entire time. I will definitely be using her again going forward. Highly recommend!
Haley was amazing!! We are typically very nervous when leaving our girls and Haley did an excellent job asking all the right questions and making sure we felt comfortable. She went above and beyond with our pups, providing additional love, care, and playtime. She also provided us with many updates, pictures, and videos. Throughout our trip there was never a question of whether our girls were being properly cared for and it allowed for us to worry about enjoying our trip. I would recommend Haley to a best friend of family member, and highly suggest reaching out if you’re looking for someone to take good care of your animals.
Crystal was wonderful! Lily and Mason loved spending the week with her and got lots of walks and attention. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, which made us feel really comfortable while we were away. We trusted her in our home for the week and everything went great. We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her! 🐾
Iv had Monarch watch my cats a few times now! She is the best person Iv found on this app. She takes great care of my cats (one with anxiety), updates me frequently and provides them with lots of attention. Anytime I return the cats do not seem overly stressed or anxious like they have when Iv had others watch them! I highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Huntersville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Huntersville on Rover is $54.58 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,086 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Huntersville. 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 Huntersville 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 Huntersville 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 Huntersville 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 Huntersville. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
