“Edelyn was a wonderful and caring dog sitter. Extremely trustworthy, provided great updates, and left my home in pristine condition! I highly recommend her for your pets.”
“Wow! Heather is a wonderful person and pet sitter. I cannot remember the last time we left our pup and didn’t worry even for a minute how she was while we were gone. She took to Heather immediately! I so appreciated the notes on our pups daily habits and sweet pictures of her throughout our absence. We returned to a super clean home and a doggie that wasn’t stressed out at all! THANK you, Heather! You really saved us on a difficult and busy week and we really appreciated the help!”
“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!!!!”
“Saralyn and Charlene make a fantastic choice for your pet sitting needs. They truly care and love your pet. Saralyn stayed at my house for 20 days caring for my dogs. I came home to happy, loved up pups that had been walked, hugged and adored in my absence. I will hire this team over and over and best of all I’ve made two new friends. Do not hesitate, contact them right now and get the #1 sitters on rover.”
“Brad did a great job staying with our dog in our home. She is very new to our family (adopted < 2 weeks ago), so we were a little nervous leaving her overnight. Brad came in with confidence, brought all of his own supplies for his stay, and was great about sending us pictures to help us know Josie was doing just fine while we were away. He is a real pro at this!”
“Lisa did an outstanding job taking care of my 3 dogs in my home while I travelled, and she also went above and beyond to keep my home near and clean (very hard with 3 dogs). Highly recommend Lisa!!”
“Christine was a great sitter for our house and pets. We have a dog, cats, and several ducks and Christine took care of them all very well. One duck needs medication twice a day, and I was impressed that Christine was totally unbothered by this and capably gave the duck her medicine. I will definitely be booking Christine again for our next trip.”
About: I have such a love and passion for all animals! I have experience with pets of all ages, shapes, and sizes and can administer medication. I am retired so I have plenty of time to care for your furbabies! It’s wonderful not having any sort of set schedule now because it allows me to be available on weekdays and weekends. I live in an apartment with my dog and two cats so any pet coming to visit would need to be ok not being the only baby. I do have a large crate if needed.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 10 years and grew up training old and young dogs. I’ve worked at animal shelters and pet boarding facilities where I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I am CPR certified for both dogs and cats. I have an extremely flexible schedule and will always make time to care for you wonderful pet! I am willing to be there any day of the week and any time. Just let me know a day before and I will make sure to be there! I will be 100% focused on caring for your animal at all times and make sure they have the best day! I’m more than happy to take your pet on an adventure, or care for them in the comfort of your home. What ever you prefer, I will do!
“Brittany was fabulous! She took such good care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we were on vacation. We got daily updates and lots of photos. You could tell the pets were being well taken care of! Looking forward to having her take care of all 5 pets real soon! I would highly recommend her and plan on asking her to take care of the pets anytime we go out of town!”
“Lillian did an awesome job watching Scarlett over the weekend. Scarlett can be pretty anxious and high energy, so I’m always a little cautious leaving her with someone new, but she took to Lillian right away, which says a lot. Lillian was very responsive the entire time and clearly put in the effort to work with Scarlett, not just watch her. That meant a lot to me knowing she was in good hands while I was away. Would definitely recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future.”
“Alyssia was such a great sitter for Reo! She kept me up to date every day, sent me pics of the cutest moments (which I love getting) and Reo was very happy and calm when I got home.”
“Shona was a wonderful pet and house sitter! She loved on our pets as if they were her own, sending regular updates and photos. She immediately connected with their personalities. We loved that she was able to be with them all day, as she works from home, so she was able to work from here. We will definitely use her services again and again, and cannot recommend her highly enough!!”
“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!”
“Very thankful for Jeffrey and his help watching our 2 dogs! They are rambunctious, so I know his hands were full. But he did a wonderful job and they loved him.”

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!
Heather is amazing! Our senior dog got sick right before we were leaving for a trip. Heather was great at communicating, giving him his medicine, changing his food, and keeping a close watch on him while outside. I felt so relieved to have her as the one staying with our dogs while we were away! She also left our house cleaner than it was when we left. I couldn’t recommend her more.
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!
Truly the best sitter I have had since using this app! Briann kept me updated on all of my animals throughout the stay and treated them like they were her own. I always get so stressed leaving my dog and she made me feel at ease. Thank you for going above and beyond! 10/10 service!

FAQs for House Sitting - Huntersville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Huntersville on Rover is $53.87 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 3,119 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
