“Peter was exceptional. Right before we left one of the dogs was diagnosed with cancer and he went above and beyond to give us updates and deal with issues. Could not have asked for better service or responsiveness. Think the dogs wanted to leave with him”
“Sara is a Rockstar sitter. She follows care instructions and really takes great care of my fur baby. He's an old man and needs special attention so I truly appreciate her. I never have to worry when she's caring for him which is such a relief.”
About: I’ve cared for my neighbors’, family members’, and friends’ dogs, cats, and other pets for several years. I’m reliable, responsible, and I care about the well-being of every pet I look after. My availability is very flexible for your needs! I just moved to the area and was looking to make some money while also getting acquainted with the neighborhoods here! I have reliable transportation to drive to and from your home to walk, feed, or play with your pet. I do day services, and can stay overnight if requested! Thank you for trusting me with your pet!
About: I have 4 years of experience with almost every breed of dog and cat imaginable so I can provide specialty care based on your individual pets needs! For over 4 years family members and clients have trusted me to handle potty breaks, playtime, feeding time, and medication for senior care of their pets! I work part time during the week so my schedule is very flexible for potty breaks and house sitting. I have one client that I let out for potty breaks weekly in the Mountain Brook area, others are scattered availability. I can care for your pets and home by making sure they have lots of attention and playtime throughout the day. In senior pet homes I have no problems cleaning any accidents quickly and efficiently while making sure your pet isn't embarrassed. Additionally in senior pet homes I can adhere to strict medication schedules on time and with lots of positive reinforcement.
“Jessica is a caring and reliable sitter for us when we are out of town. She stays in contact with me as often as I send her messages and she kindly sends photos throughout the day. We will continue to book her services and we are thankful we met her.”
“Kate was communicative and went above and beyond to make sure our boy wasn’t lonely or bored. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to having her watch our dog in the future!”
“Catherine is the best! She is so sweet and intentional, and my sweet Knox had the best time with her. She even offers crafts, homemade treats, and paw-decures!! 💅🏼 Will be booking again”
“Gayle took great care of our dogs and cat, including handling different needs for each, lots of loving and pets, and good updates! It was our first time using Gayle and she gave us great peace of mind.”
“I am a first-time puppy owner and had to travel out of town unexpectedly for a funeral. I was understandably nervous and hesitant to leave Georgie since he's so young, but I know that keeping his environment consistent is extremely important right now. Then I found Annie on Rover.com. Annie was an absolute godsend who put me at ease immediately. She was extremely responsive and even sent me the most adorable pictures of my sweet boy. I am so appreciative of the stellar care that she provided and we hope to have her come and visit again soon! 10/10 would definitely recommend. Thank you, Annie!”
About: I have a special gift for noticing the emotions and personalities in pets that people often overlook. Whether your dog is playful, shy, independent, or simply needs a little extra love, I take the time to understand what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I’ve been around dogs since the age of 7. My specialty is dogs, but I happily welcome my feline friends too! :) When your pet is with me, they’re not just being watched. I want to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and joyful during every visit—so much so that they remember me when I return! My goal is to make sure your pet has a great day, because they give us so much in return: security, joy, companionship, and unconditional love. I want them to feel that same care and connection while they’re with me. 🐾 I don’t have a full time or part time job, I don’t own any pets of my own, no kids. My only exceptions would be my personal daily task that come with general life. I do not board more than one dog at a time just to keep things safe. I also live in an apartment complex with two other roommates who are my best friends. With this set up, I can ensure both your fur baby and my roommates are comfortable.
“Mary was great to work with and gave perfect attention to my crew. She communicated clearly and showed up exactly when she said she would. I highly recommend her for your pet needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kiddo! Dogs and cats. I had my maltipoo, Georgie, for 18 years. I had my cowboy corgi, Squeaks, for 4 years and just recently lost him due to cancer. He is missed very much. My work schedule is very flexible. I work from home and usually within an hour of Birmingham. Rarely travel out of town. I make my own schedule. My latest pup, Squeaks, had cancer. He was on a holistic journey from July to Thanksgiving. He was on all natural supplements and I also cooked his food fresh every week. Ground turkey, sweet potatoes and veggies. Unfortunately, his Tumor had progressed and I had to make the best decision for him a few weeks ago.
“Courtney is wonderful! My cat didn't miss me because Courtney took such good care of her. This meant a lot to me because it was one of the first times I left my cat in someone else's care. I would not hesitate to use Courtney again! Courtney is a caring, conscientious animal sitter. She clearly loves animals. She also left everything spotless! I highly recommend Courtney if you want an animal sitter you can count on to follow your instructions and is dependable, diligent and caring.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Wine Ridge is $49

Libby is amazing! She’s like Dr Dolittle. She was able to deal with my incredibly difficult senior dog better than I can! Even the cat, who hides when anyone comes over, came out immediately and hung out the whole time Libby was there. I was so worried that my fluffs were going to give her a hard time but she handled them perfectly. I was able to enjoy my vacation stress free.
Allison stayed for 8 nights with our 3 month old puppy (Katie) while we were out of the Country. We were concerned with leaving her because she is still so young and has a ton of energy and puppy moments. However, Allison was great. She took care of our Katie and kept us informed of how things were going while we were gone. It helped make our trip worry free. I would highly recommend Allison to take care of your fur baby.
Ashlyn took good care of my fur babies for a full week. She gave us daily updates and sent pictures. I have 2 large dogs and a cat and they all have very different personalities… she did a great job handling each one of them. We will definitely call on her again.
Joy stayed with our sweet dog, Scout on Thanksgiving evening. I had given up hope of finding someone to stay with him.. Scout has separation anxiety and can not be left alone. Joy came to the rescue and Scout really liked her right away. She text me pictures of Scout with updates on how he was doing. In one of the pictures I could see that she was sitting on the floor next to Scout and he looked so relaxed and happy. I really thought that was so sweet! Joy was so attentive to Scout and sweet to him. I would love for her to stay with him again!
Stephanie and Jax are amazing! She was so gracious and flexible to come watch my pups last minute. She took such good care of our home and pups which eased our minds while we were away! She went above and beyond more than she needed to - even vacuumed our house for when we got back! Definitely will book again! :)
Danielle was a superstar for our dog Maddie! She managed a 10 day house sitting job perfectly! Dog walks got done per Maddie's usual schedule, and she made sure Maddie got lots of attention. We got pictures and comments daily. Our home was left in perfect condition—Danielle washed the sheets and towels she used and the kitchen was spotless. She even notified us of an unexpected window leak during a heavy rain and took care of maintaining the mess so no worse damage was done. This was a winning situation for us to have peace of mind while away and for Maddie to feel secure during our absence too. We will definitely book her again as a need comes up—and refer her to anyone looking for loving, reliable help.

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 Wine Ridge 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 Wine Ridge 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Wine Ridge 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
