“Lauren did fantastic with our two pets. She sent us multiple great pictures every time she came to visit them and they seemed very happy. Couldn't have asked for a better person to take care of them while we were away.”
“Allison was great! This was her first time watching my boys. She was willing to meet in advance which always puts my mind at ease. Her calm demeanor was a perfect match and she was super communicative while I was away. I will definitely rebook with Allison and would recommend her.”

“Morgan is amazing and took such great care of my pup! She clearly loves animals and it’s refreshing to find someone on this app that is trustworthy and who cares about animals like they are her own. Definitely recommend her for peace of mind! :)”
“Haley was great and did a terrific job with our cat. She kept us updated on anything going on, and went out of her way to spend a little extra time with Demi and give her special attention. Communication was excellent and timely. Haley would be our first choice anytime we needed to have someone look after our cat.”
About: Hi! I’m Emma! Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 4 years old. I grew up with a German Shepherd mix and a Pit Bull mix, so I have experience with big and small, high-energy dogs and understand the attention and exercise they need. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, and they have a special place in my heart. Whether your pup is young and playful or older and prefers a slower pace, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I genuinely love being around dogs and would be thrilled to spend time with yours! I’m a full time touring musician, but I have multiple months in the year where I’m at home and don’t have much to do. I’m almost always available on weekdays, and sometimes weekends. I’m also usually available anytime between 8am-8pm I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. ☺️ I carefully follow each pet’s routine, make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise, and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I keep a clean environment, doublecheck doors and gates, and communicate regularly with owners through updates and photos. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾
“Olivia was an amazing sitter! She took such great care (and pictures) of Matilda. We loved seeing her updates and were never worried about our fur baby while we were away. Olivia is a rockstar!”
About: I've always self designated myself as the animal person of my family. I always took on the duty of feeding, bathing and walking to spend more time with our pet ensuring they're at their healthiest. I'm available Mon.,Thu. and Fri. mornings and afternoons, Sun.,Tue and Wed. early mornings and afternoons. I look forward to keeping your pets happy with walks and play time, checking in and keeping them fed and watered. I have nearby parks great for walking dogs. I believe its essential to be aware of pet behavior and their triggers. It's also important to notice different pet personalities. It's good to tell if a dog is wanting a pet or a toy. Or if a cat is wanting some space or nap.
About: Often dog walk and house sit. Have experience with multiple dogs and cats at a time. Also done puppies and kittens. Great with communication and planning! I have a very flexible schedule so my activities can be fit around what your dog(s) or cat(s) need. So that includes times during the day and also days of the week. I have 2 small dogs very friendly and they are crate trained. One outside cat that sometimes stops by for food and water. We have a fenced yard with a pool.
“New to the area. Needed a pet sitter. Molly was awesome. Had her watch our cat for 2 weeks. She was very sweet and worked with all our requests. She was prompt to respond, answered any question we had while we were gone. Our kitty was well fed and had good water when we came back! We plan to use her whenever we go out of town!”
“Andrea was great with our three boys! When we got back for an extended day trip, it was clear that they hadn’t been under any stress or anxiety - they were great! Andrea came to our home during all of their regular potty break/food times to make sure they were comfortable. We’ll definitely be working with her again!”
About: I don’t just watch dogs, I care for them like family. I have experience providing gentle, attentive care for all dogs and always tailor my approach to each pup’s unique needs. Whether it’s extra cuddles, slow walks, or simply keeping them company, I make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Even though I work full-time, I make pet care a priority in my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to fit in walks, playtime, and quality care around work hours. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I always make time to ensure your pet gets the love, attention, and consistency they deserve. I have a fenced in yard and two other pups to keep your fur baby company at my house. When caring for pets, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. In a client’s home, I follow their established routines, feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions so pets feel secure and at ease. I also make sure to keep their space clean and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection.
About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was in high school, now going into year 7 of pet sitting. My unwavering dedication to personalized care for each pet is what I always focus on. I understand that each pet is unique, with its own needs and quirks, and I try and go the extra mile to tailor my services to meet those individual requirements I currently work in person 3 days out the week (MWF) as a college professor at AAMU but I make sure you pet’s needs are my first priority. From waking up early to give them attention & exercise, sharing my lunch break with your furry friend to take a walk and have a bathroom break, to helping me take breaks during my work hours for us to both stretch and go for a walk. Having constant communication with the owner & providing regular updates through messages, photos, or videos. Being prepared for any emergency by having a plan and knowing I need to bring your furry friend if an emergency may happen. Lastly, ensuring the safety within the home by removing anything that may be hazardous and keeping your furry friend in their designated area when needed to avoid any mishaps.
“This was our first time using Rover and the first time our pets were going to be cared for my someone other than family so I was very nervous. Amber did an excellent job explaining Rover's policies and procedures. She made my fur babies feel so loved during the meet and greet and calmed my anxiousness. Our pets were very well cared for during their drop in visits and we will definitely book again!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life from big to small. They are the sweetest animals and we as humans don't deserve their unconditional love for us. I work full time but my work is close so i come home on my lunch breaks and they are never in the kennel more than 5 hours at a time. I absolutely love dogs and i spoil my rotten. Your dog will be considered family while it is at my house while you're on vacation! Thank You for considering me! I work most days but I have two dogs of my own. I live close to my job and come home on my lunch break on days that I work. I have a fenced in yard. I walk the dogs around the neighborhood at least once maybe a few more times depending on the day and the dog. But my two dogs love to play in the backyard together.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Huntsville is $20

Cynthia was very helpful with our last minute request for drop in visits! She sent plenty of pictures and gave us updates after each visit, which helps keep my husband and I worry free while we are away. She is also very professional and communicative. I would highly recommend her for any pet parents needing sitting for their fur babies!
First time using rover, and I didnt have to worry about my pups at all while I was gone. She took great care of my them! She sent updates and photos and let me know of anything concerning, which I appreciate. She even dripped my faucets while I was gone, and I didnt even ask or think about that! I try not to leave my pups home alone, but if I ever have to, I'd happily trust her again! Thanks Haven!
We were in need of someone last minute to check on our boys while we were away visiting family during Christmas. Amanda and Benjamin were so sweet, and our boys loved them! They sent a lot of pictures and updates, and we felt at ease knowing our boys were in good hands while we focused on family time.
Andrea was great with our three boys! When we got back for an extended day trip, it was clear that they hadn’t been under any stress or anxiety - they were great! Andrea came to our home during all of their regular potty break/food times to make sure they were comfortable. We’ll definitely be working with her again!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Huntsville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Huntsville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
