“Linda was a great find for us. We moved back to the area about a year ago and needed someone to stay with our “kids”. We’ve used Rover in the past so we turned to them again. After a lot of searching for someone that could take care of our elder pups needs we landed on Linda. It was short notice for her (I procrastinated) but she made it work. Linda stopped by the house for a visit with everyone and the kids approved. We were very pleased with Linda’s approach and style. She took care of our home and babies like they were her own. We highly recommend Linda. She’s a keeper. We will be booking her again.”

“Victoria stayed in our home to take care of our dog Mika. She was very conscientious and respectful of place and took great care of Mika. Victoria spent most of the day with Mika so she wasn’t alone. We returned to a very calm and relaxed pup. Victoria is a good communicator, anytime she had a question or concern she was quick to let me know. We won’t hesitate to use Victoria again.”

“Darian was amazing! She house sat for our three cats, two dogs, and backyard chickens. She gave us peace of mind knowing she was responsible, caring, and professional. She really cared for our animals like they were her own. We will definitely be asking her to take care of our girls again in the future and I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Mireille was great. I could tell right away that she had a genuine interest for our dogs and would be a good match for them. We have one who is older with several anxiety triggers and one who is younger and a handful and has a endless desire for cuddly attention. Mireille satisfied both their needs. She was also good with the communication and flexible when our return home was a bit delayed. Would recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve taken care of my dads friends dogs aswell as my own cat. I’ve fed, walked, etc.. I’d love to work with your pet! I’ve had my cat for 12 years and she’s well taken care of. This is currently my main priority as I’m going to college soon! I can do pretty much any days and any times!! Monday-Friday. 7Am- 9PM (just an example) I currently do not offer this ! But if i ever did I’d make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as my own. Thank you for trusting me!

“Amazing! Jamie is one of the best sitters we’ve ever used. Before she even got to the house, she was very patient with our changing travel plans, which had honestly become a bit of a nightmare as work constraints evolved and our dates kept shifting. We had her stay with our two dogs and small flock of chickens - a bit on the unusual side of Rover bookings. One of our dogs is a very timid rescue and the other is a slightly crazy young blue heeler mix, so they have very different personalities and needs. Jamie was wonderful with both - she had the timid one eating and letting her get near within the first few hours; normally this is a 2-3 day process! She seemed to have great intuition about dog behavior and knew exactly what to do to gain his trust. The active heeler didn’t seem to throw her at all either, and both pups were quite happy and healthy when we got back. In addition to being a superb canine communicator, Jamie was also a great human communicator and was proactive with reaching out to our additional contact when a question came up and it was the middle of the night where we were. I felt like she was on top of absolutely everything and had no anxiety about her ability to handle any dog/house/chicken things that might occur while we were away. To top it off, we came back to a clean house that was exactly as we left it - she even washed the sheets and remade the bed, which was extremely appreciated after getting back from overseas and quickly turning to back-to-school mode. We will definitely call Jamie the next time we need a sitter!”

“Emelyn is the best! The house was left exactly as it was when we left for our trip. Our dog ate all his meals during her stay, which is huge because he usually hunger strikes when we’re not around. We could tell our boy was very comfortable with Emelyn. Will definitely book again!”

About: I am a dependable and compassionate pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other household pets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to build trust while providing attentive, personalized care. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, cleaning up after pets, providing companionship, and maintaining consistent routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I am proud of my commitment to treating every pet like family. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being so I can quickly notice any changes that may need attention. I communicate regularly with pet owners, provide updates and photos, and always strive to give them peace of mind while they’re away. I am patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether caring for energetic puppies, senior pets, or shy animals that need extra patience, I provide loving, responsible care that keeps pets happy, healthy, and safe. I work from home with generous breaks. While my schedule is 9-5, I wake early to go on walks in my neighborhood, and my work day includes 1.5 hours of breaks. After work is much like “before work”. A pet would work perfectly in this schedule I have a 3 story townhome and garage! I recently installed a fence! I will keep the pet entertained with fetch, and other stimulating games and puzzles

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since before I could walk! I’ve grown up around dogs and have worked professionally in boarding and daycare facilities. I am trained in dog/cat care and am able to administer medication, work on training, enrichment and so much more. I have experience with hundreds of breeds as well as dogs from less than 10 pounds to dogs over 200!! (I’m a big fan of mastiffs.) Please reach out! I currently do not work other than through Rover! I stay at home so my schedule completely revolves around my babies and yours !! Anytime I am needed I can be there for your pets and they are my one and only commitment during my time with them! I currently live on just about 2 acres of land with forest, open run room, and even a pond! I have two dogs of my own, Bailey and Captain, who are both just about a year and a half old!

FAQs for House Sitting - High View

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 272 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across High View. 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 View 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 View 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 View 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
