“Bethany was the most welcoming and confident host for our 12 yo poodle mix. Our dog has struggled with anxiety for years, so I was excited to see how accepting he was of being dropped off in a new-to-him environment. Bethany’s energy was perfect for his temperament, and I feel lucky to have found her for future visits. She tended to his needs, and even though he had a couple accidents- due to nerves or aging - she took this in gracious stride. We received photos and updates that made our trip away from him feel seamless. We highly recommend her, and will book with Bethany anytime she is available.”
“We had such a wonderful experience Lynna. She took such great care of our Bella and treated her like her own. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly patient and caring—even hand-fed our little one when needed! Her two dogs were also so sweet and well-behaved, and they got along wonderfully. She even went the extra mile and did a little photoshoot for our pup, which was absolutely adorable! 🥰📸 We truly appreciate all the love, attention, and care she gave our dog. We would definitely recommend Lynna and would happily book with her again! ❤️🐾”
“I was so concerned about leaving my elderly dog for a week , she has so much anxiety and i had not left her with anyone before. Christopher was great he kept Azalia safe and happy until i returned. He was great with sending updates and picture and videos which helped put my mind at ease and let me enjoy my vacation. I could not have asked for a better sitter. Thanks”
“Jonathan was amazing! Our dog is young and very high energy and I felt safe leaving her with a very capable sitter and dog trainer! Also he sent videos and updates and she loved it there! Thank you JC, for taking such good care of our baby girl! We will definitely book again!”
“Britny, Jeremy, and Remy were the BEST sitters for our pup Jager. They kept in contact, got some of the best pics, and overall were so kind to work with! We will definitely use them in the future so that Remy can visit with the “tiny dog” again 😊🤍”
“We were gonna be gone for two weeks and needed someone to take care of our baby. At first, we were a little scared to leave her at somebody else's house, but my husband went to Brook's house and met her and her dogs first! That made us feel very good about the stay. While Vanilla was there, Brook sent us updates, pictures and videos. We feel great about her and we'll leave Vanilla again under her care. Thank you guys :)”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs, and now my husband and I have five cats and one dog of our own! I volunteer at the Animal Protection League walking dogs and caring for cats. I also run Fields Feline Rescue, a local home-run rescue for cats and kittens, with my husband. I am experienced with bottle feeding kittens, giving medicine to cats and dogs, basic dog obedience, harness and collar walking, and keeping litter boxes nice and clean! I am currently working full-time as a social worker. I also am in part-time night school. My availability may change week-to-week. Generally, I am free before work, on lunch, and after 4:30pm. Please reach out to talk about a schedule that works for you! I will respect your home environment and prioritize your pet's routine. I also will communicate when I am coming and going from your home, and keep you updated!
“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”
“Kyungyeon was above and beyond the most incredible sitter for our Copper!! We got so many updates and made sure our boy was happy and comfortable the whole time!!!! We are so thankful!!”
“We were hoping Rosie would get to have some play time with Brittney’s doggies but it sounds like she mostly just slept. My bad for not asking ahead of time. She could have slept in our motorhome while we were out. Other than that, she was well taken care of I’m sure. Brittney said she took her on some walks down the street and sent us one picture of her sleeping. Just a heads up if you’re hoping for a playdate, this might not be the best choice.”
“Shalissa and her family were wonderful. Very friendly people who really cared about our dogs. If this in any way helps those of you new to Rover, I highly recommend her. This was our first time and our boys loved it. She sent lots of photos and kept me informed while we were gone. We will be using her again later this year.”
About: Although I have more experience with cats, I love all pets in all sizes! I will treat your fur baby exactly the way they are supposed to be treated, like a member of the family. I will make sure your pets are well cared for, loved, and I will try my best to make sure you receive updates along the way because that is what I would like, if it were me. If your buddy needs medicine or special care instructions, I am happy to oblige. I want to make sure your pet feels the least amount of stress possible, because I know how hard it can be when they are away from you. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pet and take them for walks. Boarding can happen any day of the week. I have 2 kitties and a pup at home with an unfenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I will make sure your fur baby is cared for on the schedule you need to keep them on track. I do not have a crate, but if you'd like to provide one, I'm happy to crate your baby as needed. Because I stay at home, I will be picking up my kids from school during school days and would love to be able to bring your buddy with me during that time (if they aren't stressed about it).
“Jacklyn took amazing care of our dog Mac! She provided thorough updates and pictures. He was clearly well taken care of while we were gone and we would definitely use her for future needs!”
“The best person i could ever ask to take care of my baby Challa. Rajesh is very sweet and personable. He is wonderful with communicating and sending pictures. I will definitely bring Challa back to Rajesh. I 100% trust and know he will be taken good care of with Rajesh. Thank you so much again. Challa misses you already ?”
“Kristan was absolutely wonderful! She provided updates and my dog Harris loved hanging out in her fenced in back yard! I would highly recommend Kristan and will be using her again for my future pet sitting needs!”
“Waffles and Dobby had a great time and had amazing care. Ashley, Mike, and the Kids treated our pups like family. This was Dobby’s first time away from us and they did great with him. Waffles and Dobby got lots of play time and lots of love. They sent plenty of photos and gave updates a couple times a day. Will definitely be using them next time we need a sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Huntsville home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Huntsville.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Huntsville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
