“Abigail did a fantastic job watching our critters! She was great about sending pics of Oban and Mabel, and she kept our house looking nice and clean. We would definitely have her house sit again and recommend her!”
“Mattie was great! Her communication is wonderful, her love for my animals was heart warming, and she’s just a cool person. I look forward to working with Mattie again and highly recommend.”
“Chris did an amazing job making my dogs feel comfortable with his presence and their routines. Our shepherd can be a little apprehensive of new people but he was licking Chris's face by day two. Also, upon our arrival home I could hardly tell that there was anyone new in our home. I will be a repeat customer of Chris's and I highly recommend his pet sitting services.”
About: Furbabies have been my best friends since childhood! From sitting for friends to taking care of my own, dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. I have house/pet sat for family and friends as well as worked at a dog daycare, so I am familiar with a variety of dog types and the care these animals need to be at their happiest! I’m currently working a very flexible part-time job, so I am able to spend plenty of time with all your furbabies! I am usually available anytime on Friday-Sundays and after 5pm on weekdays! I am always happy to pet sit and house sit overnight if needed! And am able to provide any and all kinds of walking/playing time. From being the personal driver to the park or just walking around your neighborhood, I will always bring forward a caring environment for your pet.
“Kaylee watched our dog and cat during an extended stay. We felt very comfortable as she kept us updated often with lots of pictures. She is very personable and professional. She took great care of our pets, did all we asked and kept the house clean. I will definitely be calling her again. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up with a minimum of 5 pets in my house at all times, cats, dogs, guinea pigs, etc. and I love them all to death. I’m extremely passionate about caring for animals and am in school right now studying to work with them when I’m older. I have worked at a few doggy daycare and boarding facilities and they have been my most favorite jobs ever! I’ve also done petsitting and dog-walking for numerous other families that have trusted me and I’d love to help you out! I will ensure your pets safety and wellbeing above all else! I currently am in class 4 days a week, (12-6 MW, 9-3 T/TH), but I am available at any other time during the week and on most weekends! I take dogs on multiple walks a day, and have a dog park in my apartment complex. I have one cat but she stays in my room with me, but I can also move her if necessary! If I am visiting your home, you can trust that I will be respectful of your space and spend plenty of time with your pet!
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. From pet sitting for friends and family members to just stopping by for food and playtime. Your pets regardless of age are in great hands. I am currently working part time so I have Thursdays, Fridays, and some weekends available to play with and cater to your sweet fur babies! I have worked with pets of all different sizes and personalities. I know what signs to look for and how to safely monitor play and social environments.
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I am passionate about providing the best care for your furry family members. Whether it's daily walks or playtime I offer personalized attention to meet your pet's unique needs. I am able to work full time towards pet care so my schedule can be very flexible. I can do any day of the week. I care for the pets by giving them a lot of attention whether that’s petting or playing with toys or running around in the yard.
“Kaitlyn created the perfect environment in our home for our pups to feel safe and happy! It makes going away stress free. We look forward to having her care for our dogs again soon.”
About: A lifelong love of animals has led to me learning how best to care for them from a young age. I'll make sure your pets feel happy, comfortable and safe! I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, turkeys, and guinea pigs, and I'm willing to work with all animals except arachnids and insects. I wake up at around 8 every day and go to bed around 11, and I can adjust pretty easily if I need to be up earlier or later. I can mold my schedule to another routine very easily (and enjoy doing so!) and working with animals fills me with so much joy that doing the best job possible is barely a job at all. I'll meet your pet where they're at. If they don't want to be sociable, that's fine! I'll make sure they're fed and have water and they can come to me in their own time. If they want to be attached to the hip from moment one, I love that too.
“Jade is fantastic! She took care of my lovely dog Maple for 4 days of Labor Day. She sent me photos of my baby everyday and checked in with me often. I will definitely be hiring Jade again!”
About: I have been working with animals and dog sitting for years. I love playing with dogs and giving them walks. I am a school counselor during the school year and have a really flexible summer schedule. Pet care is a priority of mine, scheduled daily for feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and check-ins, ensuring each pet receives consistent love, attention, and care. Provide fresh food, water, exercise, companionship, and medication if needed. Ensure safety, cleanliness, and comfort tailored to each pet’s needs in home or client’s home.
About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a little girl, and have since developed a deep-rooted passion for veterinary medicine! I’ve worked for a mobile vet clinic, where we worked with canines and felines to administer vaccinations and offer flea and tick prevention. I also had the honor of working for a large dog park in Atlanta, where we had hundreds of adorable pups come through - many of whom were regulars and who I got to know super well! I’m currently a full-time college student, but I have free availability during the summer and would love to meet you and your fur babies! My weekends are also usually wide-open. I am more than happy to drop in to visit your precious fur babies and get their bodies moving for some fun walks! A little heads up (3+ days) and I should be able to make mostly anything work for your sweet angels! I am more than happy to work around any and all feed schedules, treats, medication administration, specific walk times or lengths, and any areas of concern for your dog or cat. I am very detail-oriented, so anything that you give me will be taken into great care for your fur baby!
“We never worry about Mysty when Kira is sitting for us. She takes care of Mysty and our home as if it is her own. We come home to a happy fur baby and the house is always as we left it. We would highly recommend Kira to anyone for the care of your fur babies!”
“I highly recommend Eric! As a pet sitter myself, it’s tough leaving your beloved animals with someone else, but Eric took wonderful care of our two rescue dogs and one rescue cat. He provided daily updates with pictures … and we came back to happy animals and a clean home😊 Do yourself a favor and book him!”
About: I have one cat and had two beautiful dogs growing up. I’m a great listener to instructions and would love to help u help ur pets! I'm very flexible and I'm excited to get exercise everyday and make some money. My routine ebbs and flows but in my spare time this is what I would like to do and I'm very excited to do this! My cat, Scarlett, is an indoor outdoor cat. I clean her litter box every day and feed her everyday in the morning. I also play, groom, and take her to her vet.
“Mateo was geear and professional to work with. He was able to come by multiple times a day to check up on Domino and provide him the care he needed! Would recommend to friends and family!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and loved every single one of them! I also worked at an animal clinic all through high school and college, so I’ve picked up a lot of experience reading dog and cat behavior and adjusting to each pet’s personality. I’m comfortable giving medication (including insulin shots), and I can help with baths or nail trims if needed. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away—whether we’re out for a walk, playing, or just hanging out for some cuddle time. I am available for pet sitting in your home, walks, and drop-ins after 6 pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekend. I can offer engaging play and 30+ minute walks, whatever you like. I offer bathing and toe nail clipping per request, or if your pet gets exceptionally dirty while you are gone (it happens!), I will bathe for free. Feeding and treats will be given per your instructions, and I will do whatever your pet needs to be comfortable while you’re away, so don’t be afraid to ask!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in High Shoals is $80 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $80 and $80 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Shoals 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 Shoals 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 Shoals 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.

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.
