“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”
“We were in need of a last minute house/pet sitter for graduation weekend. Drake was quick to respond with his availability. He even met us beforehand to ensure he was the right fit for our animals. Spoiler - he absolutely was! If you're looking for someone highly professional, calm, and patient with your animals - then hire Drake. He sent regular updates and gave our animals so much love in our absence. Thank you Drake!”
“Kaitlynn was wonderful! She stayed with my pup for a weekend that I had to be out of town. She was very professional and easy to get in touch with. She stayed in touch with me throughout the weekend and sent picture updates! My pup absolutely loved her and had a fantastic weekend. You won’t be disappointed if you work with Kaitlynn!”
“Cayla was amazing with my Horde of three that count a stubborn Rhodesian and two Husky/Jack Russell mixes. They were so well cared for that they were happy to see me but fairly blase about me coming home. 🤣🤣”
“Sofia was great! I got cute pics of my girls when I was away and knew I didn’t need to worry about them. She left my house as clean as I left it, which I was so grateful for! Will for sure book with her again”
About: Hello! My name is Destiny, I have 8 years of experience caring for all types of dogs and cats! I am a mom of two human kids and four furry kids (three cats,one dog) For the past couple years,I was building up clientele for my in-home boarding and then was eventually able to just take regulars for a few years. However , now I am wanting to branch out and offer drop-ins and dog walks in the Red Bank/Hixson area! I have experience administrating oral medicine and eye medication for both dogs and cats. I've also watched pups with separation anxiety. I'd love to come meet you and your furry(or not) family member! Look forward to hearing from you! I teach 1 hr aqua Zumba classes three times a week, two 45 min aqua combat classes and two 45 min aqua yoga flow and fusion classes other than that I am highly flexible! I typically only take 3 clients at a time. I offer one or two drop-ins a day and each time you will receive updates via a Rover card with start time and finish time, pictures, and a small description of my time there.
“Huntter did a wonderful job keeping my dogs and house safe and loved. He was able to spend the night and my dogs loved him. My house was spotless when I arrived home after 8 days away. Thank you Huntter!”
About: I’ve been caring for my furry family members since I was a young girl. I have trained puppies and cared for senior, ailing dogs as well. My pets have been and continue to be my family and are treated with respect and dignity and lots of love. I have clients whom I have cared for their cats and dogs and continue to have relationship and care for these animals. I am available for pet sitting for any length of time while you are away on vacation or stopping by throughout the day to feed, walk and play with your furry family member. I feed, play and talk with them, walk with them and keep them active to ensure a healthy life. I rest with them when they need it and groom them regularly- bathing them when needed, brushing them, providing oral care, and ensuring overall health with whatever supplements they need as well as visiting the vet when needed.
About: Hey! I'm Darby, I have 6 years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes including dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. Pet sitting was the fist way I discovered I could make money when I was in middle school, and I still love it to this day! I have about 1.5 years of experience working as a trained veterinary technician. This means that I am comfortable working with special needs animals, providing special diets, and administering medication. I am also familiar working with animals that may be anxious. Right now, I'm studying animal biology at The University of Tennessee, working at an exotic animal clinic, and am starting to apply for veterinary school. Relevant Classes: Animal Anatomy and Physiology, Cellular & Molecular Biology, Small Animal Veterinary Medicine I'm currently working part-time and taking college courses online. My best availability is all-day Friday-Sunday, but I can be flexible if I have a heads up! I like to make sure I have everything I need to know from a client before they leave so I don't have to bother them too much while they're away! This includes medication, feeding schedule, behavioral problems, and any space that may be off limits to myself and/or the pet. I'm no stranger to a mess, so no worries if your pet is prone to accidents.
“Dana is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs, and was a treat to meet. I can tell she cares deeply about animals of all kinds and followed my instructions perfectly. She's my hero and a great person all the way around would definitely use her again!”
“Nicole was so helpful and responsive and so so sweet with our babies, they took to her right away and she adapted to all their senior needs, sent picture updates and answered all questions! So glad to have found her.”
“My husband and I had to go for a work related event for 4 days and had to find someone to take care of my two mini Aussies. I was very hesitant to leave them alone with someone else as we had never done it before and also my boys are very high energy dogs and they need a lot of exercise. Luckily, I found Justin and he worked very closely with me to ensure I was comfortable with leaving my boys by providing daycare service so my boys get comfortable being away from me for the day. When the time came for us to leave our boys, I provided instructions to Justin regarding their meal, walk etc. While we were away, he provided me regular updates, took my boys for walks, hikes and exposed them to other dogs, playtime. Let me tell you, they were VERY spoiled by Justin. He took care of their needs as if I would and more. Followed all the instructions to the T! I was very much at peace knowing my boys were in his care. I recommend him 10000000%! Very responsive. Flexible and amazing to work with. Thank you Justin for everything !”
“Wanda is a wonderful, so caring and attuned to animals and their needs. I felt totally comfortable with Wanda staying at my house, and appreciated the communication and updates while I was away. Coco was really relaxed and content when I returned home, when often she is very emotional, like “where were you???”, so I took this as a good sign that she enjoyed Wanda’s company. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Kathryn was absolutely amazing! It was our first time leaving our dog for a week and we were so nervous. Before we left our dog got sick and we almost cancelled our vacation but we told Kathryn what was going on and what we were going to need from her while she was watching him. When we met Kathryn, Jameson was so excited and was happy to have someone that was going to take great care of him. She updated us on everything and sent great pictures. When we came home a few days ago we could just tell that Jameson was the happiest puppy when we walked through our dog and was taken care of so well and feeling so much better! We will be using Kathryn again for our next getaway:)”
“Jade was awesome! She was willing to work with us with both of our big wild dogs, and was especially patient with our anxious dog—-giving our pup the time she needed to get accustomed to Jade. Jade was so easy to book and communicate with, and sent frequent updates when we were gone, the dogs had a blast! We will definitely book Jade again.”
“Jeanette was great! She sent updates and pictures throughout our trip, her communication was amazing! In all the pictures I can tell our boys were happy in her care. When we came home she had washed and folded the sheets, taken out the trash and the kitchen and living room were clean!! She went above and beyond and we will now be using her for all our future trips! Thank you so much Jeanette!”
“We have had Maria sit our dogs twice now and she has been exceptional both times. Our dogs LOVE Maria. She takes the best care of them & we feel so comfortable knowing our dogs will get all the love they deserve under her watch.”

Maria is simply the best! If I could give her a million star rating ⭐️ I would!!! She took such wonderful care of our golden retriever, Sunday while we were away!! She truly treated her as if she was her own and we didn’t worry one bit and were able to just relax and enjoy our vacation. She sent lots of updates and photos which was so great! If you need a pet sitter- look no further and book Maria! She’s a real gem!!
Jill was amazing with my 3 pets while I was out of the country for several days! I came home to a very secure, happy , well fed group who were all snuggled up happily with her. She went out of her way to make them all feel safe and comfortable, and totally set my mind at ease by sending regular updates. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sit.

Sydney was a great pet/house-sitter and will definitely be hiring her again. She listened to all instructions and provided pictures of the animals and was very quick to answer the phone. Our house was left in perfect condition as well. Our pets are happy and healthy :)
Hunter was absolutely amazing! He took great care of our two spoiled dogs and house while we were away. Our house was spotless and our pups were happy upon our return. He sent pictures and updates of our boys and was very respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend and use Huntter again in the future!
Kat was incredible!!! She was extremely communicative and was really good about keeping me updated with photos and pictures. She was amazing and helped us during the Christmas season which I could not be more grateful for 🥹 Our cat seemed to absolutely love her! I would highly recommend Kat to anyone.
Pamela did a wonderful job taking care of our pets overnight for several days (15 year old dog, 2 year old dog, and 3 year old cat)!! We needed someone last minute over Thanksgiving and she quickly responded after our request. We scheduled a meet and greet and we knew they were in good hands. She provided pictures daily and the house looks great. We’ll definitely use Pamela again. Thanks so much for taking care of our fur babies!
Arooba came to the rescue for a last minute request. She communicated well and was responsive to our needs including rushing home when there was a small incident with a doggie door not being locked. She left the place super clean and sheets all washed. Recommend her as a great sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Alpine Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Alpine Heights on Rover is $37.45 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 497 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Alpine Heights. 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 Alpine Heights 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 Alpine Heights 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 Alpine Heights 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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
