About: I have 27 years of experience in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant. I'm comfortable administering oral medications and injections, caring for senior pets, and monitoring pets with special medical needs. I understand how important it is to provide patient, compassionate, and reliable care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable visits, walks, feeding, medication administration, and companionship throughout the day. I understand the importance of consistency and communication, and I enjoy spending quality time with pets while helping them maintain their normal routines when their families are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine and environment to reduce stress. I follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully, while monitoring for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. With 27 years of veterinary experience, I understand the importance of safety, attention to detail, and clear communication with pet owners.
“Mikayla was professional and compassionate! She went above and beyond for our pup - staying overnight during fireworks, bringing in packages, and keeping us up-to-date on the daily experiences. We felt comfort knowing she was there to take care of our old pup when we couldn't be there. Would definitely choose her again!”
“Barbara was fantastic! She did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs and aquarium. One of our dogs is very nervous around new people and by the end of Barbara's stay, the dog was comfortable with her. She provide updates daily and did not hesitate when any instructions were unclear. I will definitely book with Barbara again.”
“Kalyn was a wonderful dog/house sitter for our two Ausiedoodles while we were out of town. She’s great with communication, dependability and animal behavior/handling. We have a dog with special needs and she was respectful and thoughtful with his specific care instructions. I look forward to Kayln watching our dogs and house again.”
“Laurel took care of our 1 year old dog for 6 days. She communicated well over the app, gave our dog lots of attention, and left the house in really great shape. She was really pleasant to work with!”
“Aeries did really good watching over my dog and 2 cats. I will definitely be bringing her back next time I leave. She was very attentive and gave me updates (pictures) daily. 💚 Really great service!”
“Kira was an amazing dog sitter! One of our dogs has separation anxiety, and Kira did a great job keeping her calm and cared for. They also asked a lot of great questions to make sure they had all of the information they needed about our dogs while we were gone. They sent us pictures of the dogs and gave status updates while we were gone which was really appreciated! They were very flexible with time too, I was able to book them with just a few days notice, and had to stay out later than expected which was no problem for them. Overall it was a great experience, our pups seemed very happy. Thanks Kira! <3”
“Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Gypsie and Robby are the best! They love on my pets as if they were their own and the house always looks even better than I left it when I come home. Highly recommend!”
“We had Nicole watch Radar & Ruby for 9 days and she was great! We were concerned about our dogs being left alone since we never leave them alone and Nicole and I agree they would be alone not more than 3.5 hours at a time. She did exactly as we agreed and when she was here gave them so much attention and love. She shared videos and pictures of them which helped ease my anxiety about leaving them. Nicole was kind, respectful, knowledgeable, and most of loving to our dogs. I would highly recommend Nicole for your pet sitting needs!”
“Holly was fantastic with our animals (2 cats, a dog, and a pond)! While we were away on our 8 day trip she sent us some photos, which helped us know they were in good hands. And when we came back, they were only slightly perturbed at our absence, which is to be expected. Would totally have her watch our animals and house again!”
“Brandy was amazing!! She was able to help us in a pinch, and was so easy to work with and very communicative. Nala is a nervous gal, but Brandy was so quick to make her feel at ease. We will definitely be booking Brandy again! ❤️”
“Lindsey was house sitting with our cat for 2 nights and we were really happy with the experience. Our cat gets stressed when we are away so finding someone who would give her attention and who we could trust was important to us. The meet and greet already gave us a good feeling. Lindsey asked great questions about the cat's routine and needs, you could tell she actually cares. While we were away she sent us regular updates and photos without us asking, which made it so easy to switch off and enjoy our trip. Knowing our cat was in good hands made a big difference. We came back to a happy cat and a clean house. Can't ask for more than that. We will definitely use Lindsey again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely cares about your pet.”
“Julianne was a great house sitter / pet sitter for our kitty. She cared for him during a nearly 3 week vacation in May 2024. She stayed in communication with us throughout the trip and always gave me a sense that our cat was cared for with affection and love. Took great care of our house and yard which doesn’t require a whole lot but was a comfort while we were away. I especially appreciated that Julianne is retired and could really spend most of her time here. Highly recommended!”
“Very good communication and photos of my dog were great. House was clean and the same as I remember it. Galway bonded with her right away when we met. Highly recommend her for your needs!”
“Paris was fantastic. So sweet when she met our Gracie…who loved her. She was attentive and responsive when we messaged and took loving care of our baby. It eases the mind to know that your fur babies are being taken care of and loved. We will definitely have Paris watch Gracie next time we need a dog sitter. Also, she watched Gracie in our home and left it tidy and neat🩷”
“Magdalena was watching our 8 months old puppy for a week and he had an awesome time . She was very consistent with providing us regular updates for him daily - multiple times a day . She even spend time continue to train him and taught him new things . She was very involved about our dogs sleep time and comfort and thought like a mom does . I felt safe and happy leaving him with someone who cared so much . Thanks to Magdalena and would surly recommend to anyone who is looking for a great sitter .”

Morgan was outstanding! Our Pug has a lot of anxiety and I could tell when we got home that she was happy and content. We received several pictures and updates while we were away as well. It was also a great pleasure to have our home left clean and tidy. We will definitely use Morgan again!

FAQs for House Sitting - High Rock
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 6,982 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across High Rock. 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 High Rock 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 High Rock 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 High Rock 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.
