About: I have been caring for stray animals daily, especially stray cats that I regularly feed and look after. Over time, I’ve developed strong bonds with them through patience, trust, and consistency, and I’ve learned to understand their individual personalities and needs. I also grew up with a lot of animals in my surrounding which is how I became to love them and care for them. I’m working 9-5 but I have plenty of free time outside of work! I’m available after 5 PM on Thursdays and Fridays, and I’m completely flexible and available anytime on weekends. I’d be happy to work around your schedule and give your pets the time and attention they deserve! 🐾 I provide care in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure their space stays clean and safe, and I’m happy to send updates and pictures so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: Got a new puppy or an older furry friend? I’ve got you covered! I have loads of experience with all types of dogs, whether it’s obedience, potty training, or sorting out quirky behaviors, I can help your pup become the best version of themselves. I have extensive experience with dogs that suffer from anxiety and separation issues, and am able to work with your dog with proven techniques to hopefully make their time with me not be so nerve racking! Plus, I have a big soft spot for senior pets and those with disabilities, and know just how to give them the extra love and care they need. Why Me? Puppy Training: From sit and stay to more advanced tricks, I’ll tailor the training to fit your pup’s personality. Senior Pet Care: Your older pets will get all the attention and comfort they deserve. Animal Lover Extraordinaire: I genuinely love all animals and will treat your pets like my own. Extensive experience with our furry friends who suffer from separation anxiety, behavior issues, as well as helping animals with disabilities Reach out today and let’s chat about how I can help your pets have an amazing time away, or learn some new skills while we spend time together. Thank you! I work a full-time job during the week on the morning shift, though i have very flexible hours and will never let my animals go more than 4 hours without a potty break. If morr frequent breaks are needed then that can also be accomodated. No matter where the care takes place, my goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I adapt my methods to suit each pet’s unique personality and needs, ensuring they get the best possible care. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe and controlled environment where puppies receive one-on-one attention, focusing on obedience, potty training, and behavioral issues, along with plenty of playtime and socialization.

In your home, I tailor my approach to suit your pet’s familiar surroundings. For puppies, I conduct training sessions in their usual environment, helping them learn commands and good behavior where they spend most of their time. For senior pets, I offer personalized in-home visits, providing feeding, medication administration, gentle walks, and companionship to keep them happy and healthy.

About: I have been taking care of my 18-year-old cat since she was born. She has recently gone deaf and requires more attention. For two years, I frequently took care of a family with 5 children and 2 Great Danes. I give my cat attention daily, making sure she feels loved and content. This often includes filling her food, water, and changing her litter box, as well as many pets and cuddles. I would love to walk, play with, and take care of your pets. At home, I make sure my cat has a clean litter box and plenty of attention.

“Michelle was absolutely wonderful with my three dogs. Two of my dogs take some time to warm up to strangers, and they can be kind of intimidating with their barking. She was so so patient with them, and they warmed up pretty quickly! She was able to gain their trust and give them all lots of pets and take them on walks. She was very thorough in her updates and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Michelle and I will be booking with her again.”

I had a great experience with Cruz. He followed all of my instructions and was so sweet, patient, and caring with Astro and Lola. He spent time playing with them and made sure they were well taken care of. It made me feel so much better knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him! 😊

Alec was fantastic! He stopped by to let my dog, Remi, out, provided updates along the way, and sent the Rover photo, which gave me great peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and I really appreciated his reliability and communication. It was especially helpful that he was able to help out during such a busy time for me and over a holiday weekend. Highly recommend Alec and would absolutely book with him again!

Olivia did an amazing job caring for our pets. She arrived on time, followed all care instructions, and kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos — which we really appreciated. She’s dependable, professional, and clearly loves animals. Our pets warmed to her right away. Highly recommend and we’ll be booking her again!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Huntertown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Huntertown is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 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.

As of November 2026, there are 389 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Huntertown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 Huntertown 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 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.

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 tips for your first Meet & Greet.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Huntertown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Huntertown. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
