“Cassandra was so great! She was very communicative, had a great attention to detai, and sent us consistent updates and photos. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worry because of her!”
“Lindsey was a great communicator, respectful of our home, and handled our fur babies well. She kept us informed of issues while we were away and was also responsive with any questions or concerns we had. We'd hire her again and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter. Thank you Lindsey!”
“As always, Ahmed was the perfect cat sitter. Jack and Sammy love him and probably regret when I come home and he leaves. Lots of play and love! Ahmed sent photos every day -- making the time away from the boys so much easier. I highly, highly recommend Robin and Ahmed -- individually and as a team they are terrific!”
“Jessica just watched my furbaby for the first time and it was wonderful to receive many detailed updates and photos. She was direct, so kind, and left my home looking exactly as she found it. Most importantly, Coco was happy and healthy when I returned! Ernie (Jessica's adorable pup) did a great job socializing with Coco, as a nice bonus. Would happily use Jessica again in the future!”
“What an amazing sitter. The pups loved her and she kept us updated on their day with pictures. Yocelyn is also a wonderful house guest. We came back to our home in perfect condition. What a great experience with her - a true pet lover.”
“Marie is amazing!!! My pets were thoughtfully taken care of and she provided me multiple updates and pictures while I was away! Would recommend and definitely will book again!”
“We can't say enough good things about the care that Jeana provides for our pups when we go on trips! She checks in prior to the trip, shares detailed updates and pictures each day while we are away, and leaves the house immaculate and pups happy upon our return. She is responsive and reliable, and our dogs love her. We really appreciate the care and attention that Jeana brings as a sitter, and highly recommend her!”
“Holly is a brilliant sitter! Looked after my dog like she was her own, plenty of updates throughout my time away, and left the house neat and tidy. Thanks Holly!”
“She was terrific watching my dog and two cats while I was away! It helped me to enjoy my vacation even more knowing that they were being so well taken care of! She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures.”
“Michaela really helped out and was able to come dog sit for an entire afternoon on very short notice. She went above and beyond on communication and was easy and pleasant to deal with. She made sure Edgar was comfortable and had bathroom breaks, food, and water as needed. Definitely will rebook.”
“Orianne is the best! She is so sweet, caring, calm. Madeline was comforted while we were out, which means the world to us. Madeline was happy to see us, and we could tell she was relaxed. Orianne will be our first call should we need a pet sitter again!”
“Jasmin was amazing house sitting for my four little crazies! Sent regular photos, was great with communication and went above and beyond making sure she could do everything she could to care for and keep them happy! Was very respectful of home and property!”
“Brianna treated my dogs like they were her own. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation with no worries. In fact, I think the dogs were a little disappointed when she left and I came home.”
“Andrea is a great caretaker of pets and homes. She followed all directions and even cleaned up when one of my elderly cats didn’t make it to the litter box. She washed all the bowls and left them for me, as well as taking out the trash and making sure the cans ended up in the recycling. I will definitely book her again!”
“Renee was a fantastic dog sitter for our 2 girls while we were away. From the very beginning, Renee was responsive and asked questions to ensure she knew everything that was needed to take care of our girls. We received multiple videos daily from walks, playtime, and lounging time. The house was incredibly clean when we got back showing she not only took care of our dogs but our house as well. Would not hesitate to use Renee again when we go out of town next.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Huntington is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Huntington
Kari really me helped me feel at ease going away for a few days without knowing how my newly adopted pup with separation anxiety would react. Turns out Kari is a dog whisperer and Belle did great in her care! Kari was communicative in how things were going and she was very observant and thoughtful in understanding and proposing what Belle might need or like. Thank you Kari for being so kind and attentive with Belle and all of us as a family!
Holly was great! Our dog did really well and didn’t even get the stress runs like she usually does. She even washed the bedding and towels she used before she left and left my house looking amazing. My dog destroyed one of her toys while we were gone and holly took her to petsmart to get some more! Would highly recommend
I wish there was a way to give more than 5 stars! Alexis completely exceeded every expectation we had. She cared for all four of our dogs (4 BIG Bernese Mountain Dogs), Millie, Maisey, Bon, and Lucy, and I was truly blown away by how attentive, patient, and loving she was with each of them. Maisey is extremely anxious and can be a very challenging dog to care for. We are always nervous leaving her with someone new, but Alexis was unbelievably gentle, patient, and accommodating with her. She never rushed her or pushed her outside of her comfort zone and took the time to understand exactly what Maisey needed. That alone meant more to us than I can explain. On top of caring for four very large dogs, Alexis administered medication to both Maisey and Bon, handled their walks and routines, and somehow managed an honestly overwhelming amount of work with so much kindness and care. We are admittedly very nervous dog parents, and she kept us constantly updated and made us feel completely at ease. I cannot overstate how impressed we were by Alexis. Her ability to give four dogs such individualized and attentive care is incredibly special. She is genuinely one of the kindest people and has such a natural way with animals. We came home feeling beyond grateful and honestly so lucky to have found her. I would trust Alexis with our dogs again in a heartbeat and truly cannot recommend her enough!
James was absolutely amazing! He house sat for us while we were away in Europe, and we truly could not have asked for a better person to care for our Rosie. He sent us pictures and videos throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was so clear that he and Rosie quickly became best friends. We came home to a happy, well-loved pup and are just so grateful for the care and attention he gave her. We feel incredibly lucky to have found James and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby!
Team Debbie was absolutely amazing! She stayed overnight on a holiday weekend and bonded very well with our older Frenchie. She sent awesome pictures of our baby and kept us up to date so we knew all was well with our baby while we were away. Lastly, it feels like the house was even cleaner than when we left it. I’d absolutely recommend Debbie to anyone and will definitely be using her in the future. It’s a relief to have someone trustworthy to watch our baby/home.
Veronica is amazing!!!! I was recently overseas for a vacation and was gone for 12 nights— the longest I have been away from my boy, Crosby. Veronica was SO understanding and patient with me— she knew I was anxious and did everything possible to calm my nerves. Her communication with me was great - she sent lots of videos and photos and kept Crosby’s routine. She also took Crosby with her where/ when she could - to reduce his time alone. I arrived home to clean laundry and a happy dog! I trust Veronica completely and highly, hoghly recommend her!!!
Natalia was available on relatively short notice over a holiday weekend. She took the time to read all of our instructions and kept our quiet, calm, and shy dog company while house sitting. She left our home clean, washed any dishes she used, and was a very considerate. We really appreciated her care and would use her again.
Kathryn was incredible with our two high energy labs. She was communicative throughout the day with update and pictures. She also discussed schedule changes and asked for our preference if things needed to shift due to things like the weather. We have already booked her again for this fall!! Highly recommend!!!
Sam did a fantastic job watching our two cats, Sherlock and Watson. He stayed over, which was very reassuring to the cats. They like him very much and snuggle with him. He is very responsible and took care of our home respectfully. He sent us pics, which we appreciated. I highly recommend Sam as a pet sitter!
Sofia was amazing with Tommy. It was our longest trip ever and it was so nice to have someone so communicative and attentive while away. She noticed every one of his cute and bizarre behaviors and even helped rub a little toner pad on his kitty-summer-acne spot. If you need anyone to watch after your baby, Sofia is the one to call 🙏🏼🙏🏼

FAQs for House Sitting - Huntington
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Huntington on Rover is $58.85 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 10,049 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Huntington. 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 Huntington 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 Huntington 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 Huntington 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.
