“Wow! Jennifer is truly amazing and took such great care of our little pittie. She was so attentive and asked great questions leading up to our trip, you could tell how much she really cared. Our dog adored her and Jennifer kept us updated the whole time. We were gone on a long out of state trip but were never concerned and trusted that Jennifer had everything under control. We feel lucky to have found her and will absolutely use her services the next time we go out of town! Thank you SO much Jennifer!!”
“Austin was a great sitter and house guest. He was consistent with sending us updates and photos and made sure our dog was comfortable while we were out of town. He was respectful of our home and left it nice and clean. Will be booking again!”
“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.”
“Danielle was absolutely wonderful! From the moment she arrived we received updates on our 2 pups. She sent photos and let us know when they had eaten, done their business, gone for walks, etc. She handled our senior dogs medication flawlessly, and their special feeding instructions were carried out perfectly. Both our dogs truly enjoyed their time with her, she was a blessing to our family while we were away. 10/10 would recommend Danielle, and will use her again in the future.”
“We absolutely love Kai. We've hired him several times to house sit our two dogs and one cat, and he's an amazing sitter and house guest. It's such a relief to know there's someone in our home that we can trust. We very much appreciate his help and look forward to having him over again!”
“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!”
“Karen was absolutely amazing! She even took the time out to do a meet and greet before she sat our dogs at our place. My dogs loved her and even my little one that takes a second to warm up to people. She was also very patient with my little one that has a hard time. She was loving and made sure that she felt safe with her. She was consistent with sending me updates, as well as photos and videos! My dogs felt very safe with her and appeared to love her by the end of it all. She even prepared their dinner for them as I was running late for the function I had to attend. She also made time to snuggle them, play, and walk them! I have three little ones and she made sure to make each of them feel loved and cared for. I would highly recommend her to anyone else, and will definitely be hiring her again! She is very trustworthy, kind, and caring! I’m so thankful that we found her on rover.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends and family, ranging from drop-ins to housesits! I work remotely, so I have the flexibility to be present and give your pets the care and attention they need. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats since I was a baby, so I’m a huge animal lover and treat every pet like my own. 🤍 I’m caring, patient, and will absolutely make sure your furbabies get plenty of love and attention! I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care. I can easily work regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, and cuddles into my day. Given this, I have full availability all week! I have a 1,500 sq. ft. apartment, so there is plenty of room for your furbaby to comfortably roam and play! I share the apartment with my partner, Liam, who is a huge animal lover and very friendly with pets! I’ll always be the primary and sole caregiver for your pet, but he’ll be around the apartment here and there during their stay to give some extra love. :) My community also has an on-site dog park, multiple grassy areas, and paved walking trails, giving us lots of options for potty breaks, walks, and playtime. 🐾 In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow their instructions and their pet’s normal routine closely. Regardless of where I’m caring for your pet, I make sure doors and gates are secure, pets are appropriately supervised, and they have plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, play, and rest. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos throughout your pet’s stay so you always know your furbaby is safe, happy, and doing well! ❤️
“I highly recommend Shyanne! It was so lovely to have a worry-free vacation while she was watching my pets. She is kind, compassionate, intelligent, and reliable. My pets loved her, and my cat can be pretty skittish! She has a ton of experience with animals, which was also reassuring, and she understood how delicate French bulldogs can be. Thank you Shyanne for the wonderful care you provided.”
“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!”
“Fantastic! Ashley was super communicative, sent pics throughout her stay, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for. She left the house spotless before leaving. Highly recommend.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Shelby was great with Relli. I gave her my notes on Relli’s daily schedule, my long list of housesitting requirements, and she followed all my instructions wonderfully. Shelby sent lots of pics and videos, so it was very reassuring that Relli was getting lots of attention, and quality care. We could see that Relli really enjoyed Shelby, since she played a lot with her, and didn’t seem to miss us. Also, Shelby is very respectful of our house, by keeping it very tidy like we do. I highly recommend Shelby for house/dog sitting, and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Meagan was great! She stayed in our home with our 3 dogs & 1 cat for a week—the animals were rarely left alone & the house was just as we left it. We can’t wait for our next trip now that we’ve found Meagan!”
“Savannah is absolutely fantastic! My 4 month old Schnauzer “Cosmosis” is an extrovert and loves everyone, but he ABSOLUTELY adored Savannah. She is a genuine good soul - and he LOVED her to pieces. I have never seen him act that way so quickly before. We will absolutely use her again. Very trustworthy.”
About: I have years of experience caring for pets of all ages, offering patient handling, reliable routines, and a calm presence. 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. But in my clients home I take care of them well and make them feel like their owner isn’t even gone
About: Alongside taking care of my own pets, I have three years of professional experience working with hundreds of dogs daily at a pet care facility. I have been professionally trained to handle feeding, bathing, and medications, including insulin injections and needles, while maintaining clear and professional communication with owners. I have experience handling dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to dogs in their golden years, as well as a wide range of sizes—from Chihuahuas weighing under 3 pounds to large Dalmatians and Rottweilers weighing well over 120 pounds. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and my number one goal is to make sure your pet is well cared for, comfortable, and feels just as loved and secure as they would if you had never left. I am currently a full time student. My week is when I am busiest: Monday and Wednesday I am in class from 8am - 2pm. Tuesday and Thursday I am in class from 1pm - 4pm. I live in an apartment with a fairly strict pet policy so they cannot stay with me personally. Otherwise, I am more than willing to take care of a pet in your home, learn your routes and routines while getting by to know your beloved pet.

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!
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 September 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 September 2026, there are 377 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.
