“Jennifer spent two weeks with my dog and cat in our home and did an amazing job! She was professional, friendly and punctual. She sent daily pics & videos along with a summary of their day which provided so much peace of mind for me. She went above & beyond for my boys not only taking care of their needs, but providing enrichment, fun and love too. She took my dog on walks, hikes and to parks which he loved so much. She managed my cat's high-maintenance feeding schedule like a pro. She also took exceptional care of our home. I highly recommend Jennifer and will absolutely be using her services again!”
“Angelica is the one you need. She was wonderful with my four fur babies! She has a peaceful and calm energy that everyone appreciates. She communicates very well, is prompt, thorough, and above all genuinely cares. I felt completely comfortable leaving my house and babies in her care. I will be booking with her in the future! I can't recommend her enough 🫡🙂😇”
“Aunya was fantastic. She made sure all four dogs were well taken care and even cleaned up as she left the house. She was very responsive and provided check-ins. I would definitely let her take care of my wild pack any time!”
“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”
“Austin is reliable, caring, and trustworthy. Always dependable, sends daily updates, and is always a pleasure. It gives me such peace of mind to know my pups are so well cared for in my absence.”
“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.”
“I would recommend Madison to anyone! She is amazing - super communicative, great care for our two dogs, also nice to have in our home. She went above and beyond for our dog that was on medicine and had to wear a cone during her stay.”
About: I’ve spent the past 10 years caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and clients. I genuinely love animals and enjoy building trust with each pet I care for. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or calm companionship, I make sure your pet feels at home and well loved When you book with me, you can expect reliable, attentive, and loving care for your pet. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, making sure they feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or independent cats and attentive to pets who enjoy extra affection. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Josue was amazing with our Malamute during a 2 week trip! Malamutes can be a difficult breed but our pup took to Josue immediately. Josue took great care of our dog and house while we were gone, and we will happily work with him again for any future travel!”
“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!”
“Eva took great care of our two large dogs during our weekend trip! One of our dogs is more skeptical of new people and barks a lot, Eva befriended her anyway! We received a lot of pictures and communication about the pups. If you’d like to come home to a clean house and happy dogs, Eva is your girl!”
“Karen is the absolute BEST! Our fur babies love her so much ❤️ I’m pretty sure they were all pouting when she had to leave. It’s a great feeling knowing that they are going to be loved and taken great care of while we are gone.”
About: Have been taking care of dogs for the last 10 years - from the most relaxed/lazy dogs to hyperactive ones. Been a dog walker at a dog shelter for the last 6 months since moving to the area. I work full time but will be able to take care of dogs after work or over the weekends. Most holidays I am available (besides thanksgiving or Christmas - traveling home) I stay attentive while taking care of any dogs, especially on walks. I try to stay away from crowded areas, mainly because I don’t know what other people or animals will do. I usually try to spend much of my time with the dog and make sure they get enough exercise when I am with them.
“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!”
“Meghan was great! She housesat for us for a few days and did a great job taking care of our three dogs. They can be quite a handful and also require some medication daily. She did a great job communicating and sent plenty of updates. She took great care of our home as well! We will definitely use Meghan again!”
“Jeni was exactly what one would want in a dog sitter. She asks great questions to help prepare for her stay, openly communicates, sends cute photo updates, and left our home super clean. She was also patient and understanding with one of our dogs who was previously abused and has some anxiety issues. We could tell that she actually cared about our little fur children! We’re so happy we found Jeni through Rover and look forward to booking with her again in the future!”
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 energetic, 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! 🐾

I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and committed to creating a safe, loving environme I work full time on the arsenal. I also work part time but mostly use rover as my part time. I can work around each client schedules and will make the time to care for your pets I don’t care for pets in my home because I have a reactive yorkie.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Redstone Arsenal
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!
Amy is the best! We have used her several times now and she always take such good care of our girls. We have no worries at all while on vacation because we know they are in good hands. She left the house clean and even washed and changed the sheets before we got home! I would highly recommend Amy!
Cynthia did an axing job watching our baby girl and our house. She did a lot more to keep up the house than we could have asked for. Of course the weather wasn’t great for dog walks but she made sure to get in any during the breaks in weather and gave her an abundance of love while she was here with Jade. We will continue to rebook for dog walks and house sitting with Cynthia!
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.

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.
