“I can’t speak highly enough about Jennifer! She’s so amazing with the girls, takes care of them as if they are her own and is such a great communicator! We highly recommend you choose Jennifer to take care of your fur babies!”
“Angelica was great with our pups and our home. Excellent messages/updates/pictures. Walks were good exercise, not just a quick walk for them to pee. We’re looking forward to having her back.”
“Austin is meticulous, detailed and honest. He took care of my pups (Juneau and Denali) during a long international work trip and I was impressed by the care and attention he gave my pups. I will most definitely use Austin again since I know my dogs will be well cared for and I can't ask for anything more.”
“Abby was great with my girl! This was just an overnight trip but she took great care of Elsa in the short time she was with her. Great communication! I plan to use her again in a few months for a week long trip I have.”
“Aunya watched my dog for me while I was out of town. My dog is an anxious rescue, and Aunya did so well with her! I’m glad I could have someone trustworthy and reliable to care for my fur baby.”
“Christina was so wonderful! She stayed in our home for a full week and took great care of our dog. She reached out with pictures and updates and left our house exactly how she found it if not cleaner! We really appreciate it”
“Ella was fantastic with our dog, Zero. He can be pretty anxious, but she handled him with great care. She also kept us updated with several photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“Malia has been fantastic with our nervous shepherd, Selkie. I am very cautious about who I leave her with and Malia handled her fabulously, made sure she had the best time and keep us updated with photos the whole time we were away. It was super reassuring and so happy she could take care of her both times we have been away. Highly recommend and will 100% be calling upon her to pet sit for us in the future!”
“Nolan was wonderful! She made sure my dogs had exercise before the heat set in and was truthworthy with access to the home without someone being there. Truly appreciate her and will hire her again!”
“Shyanne was fantastic! She took excellent care of our pup and our home while we were away. We came back to a happy, well-loved dog and a spotless house. She truly went above and beyond, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing everything was in great hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter!”
“Meghan was great! We loved getting the pictures and updates on our doggos throughout the week. She was super communicative and we could tell that our dogs both loved her. Would have her back anytime!”
“Madison is AMAZING. She is just a great person who took care of my babies and my home just as I would. We have never left our cats alone overnight but circumstances caused the need to be gone for 8 days - to say I was nervous about how the babies were going to be is an understatement. Madison made sure they were taken care of and sent so many pictures and videos and updated us numerous times to let us know how everyone was doing. This is my first experience using Rover and I'm so happy I did. I love my friends, but no way they would have taken care of cats like Madison did. I feel like I can actually travel now as long as Madison is free to take care of everything for me ❤️”
“Cai was extremely accommodating and sent tons of photos and very clearly genuinely cares about and loves animals. We discovered through this sit that our dog has separation anxiety and Cai went above and beyond to make our dog comfortable.”
“Jennifer did a good job taking care of our pets and was very communicative. She did a few things that were above-and-beyond which was really appreciated for such a short trip.”
“Karen went beyond to make sure our babies were cared for while we were out of town! She even stayed a little longer when we unexpectedly had to return later than expected. We will continue to hire Karen! She has quickly become one of our dog’s favorite people!”
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! 🐾
“Stephanie stayed with our boys while we were away on a multi-day trip out of town. She was prompt on her arrival and took excellent care of our pups. We received updates and pictures each day. We had no worries while we were away as the doggies were in good hands.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Redstone Arsenal is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Redstone Arsenal
Amy stayed at my home and took wonderful care of my dog while I was out of town for 9 days. He is 10 years old and has some medical issues that require him to take medication, she handled this with ease. I do get stressed when leaving him. Amy was very communicative with updates and sent lots of photos which definitely alleviated my stress and allowed me to enjoy my time away. I highly recommend Amy should you be looking for someone to take care of your pet. I will definitely look to book with Amy again when I need someone to care for Napoleon.
I could not have asked for a better experience with Hope while she housesat and watched my (very skittish) cat, Sass. Hope was incredibly patient with him, earning his trust and took excellent care of him. She also helped with several things around the house during our extended trip and was very respectful of the space. I would absolutely recommend anyone needing house and/or pet sitting to consider her!
Halli was great with Max & Odie, she gave us updates a couple times a day with pictures! This was our longest time away since moving to Madison & we were hesitant to be gone so long but once we met Halli we knew we found the right person for us and Max & Odie!

FAQs for House Sitting - Redstone Arsenal
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Redstone Arsenal on Rover is $25.53 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 385 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Redstone Arsenal. 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 Redstone Arsenal 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 Redstone Arsenal 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 Redstone Arsenal 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.
