House Sitting in Highland

“Elena watching our high energy one year golden retriever and cat with separation anxiety for 14 days while we were out of the country. We came home to a clean home and happy, healthy pets, which is everything we could have hoped for. Elena was prompt with communication and profession. We had a great experience and will definitely hire Elena again in the future.”

“Elma was fantastic! She was very open and attentive to all of our instructions and concerns. We felt very confident and safe having her look after our house and animals. She kept the house clean and sent photos updates regularly. It felt like we were always up to date on how our little ones were doing. They seemed to really enjoy her company! Highly recommend!”

About: I've been watching my friends' and neighbors' pets on and off for the most of my adult life, and it's something I truly enjoy. I'm also a mom to two orange boys - Tumbleweed and Scrumbles- who bring me a lot of joy. I currently work full-time as an Archives and Library professional, and I'm looking to supplement my income and pay off student loans by offering pet care through Rover. As a Rover client who’s had wonderful experiences, I’m excited to now provide the same care and love to your fur babies! I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. I'm fully available on weekday evenings after 4 PM, as well as all day Saturday, Sunday, and on federal holidays. I'm also flexible with early morning check-ins -- feel free to send me a message and we can work something out! I understand that cats thrive best in the comfort of their own home, so I'm happy to provide attentive care right where they feel safest. I follow your cat's usual routine for feeding, play and litter box maintenance to keep them happy and stress-free. I also keep your home secure and clean, and I'm happy to provide updates and photos of your fur babies.

About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was a young boy. I love dogs of all species and love to play and learn about dogs when I can. I currently have a blue heeler so high energy dogs are no problem. I would love to use my free time to do something productive and help people make sure their animals are cared for and give them the extra attention that I can. I live in an apartment, but I love taking my dog to the park to play to let out his energy. We also love to play in the house aswell.

About: Reliable communication and genuine care. I tailor each drop-in to your pet’s needs and always provide photo updates. I treat each pet as if they were my own, providing gentle attention, lots of playtime, and comfort while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and truly cared for. Pet care is a rewarding part of my daily routine. My flexible work schedule lets me reliably fit in drop-in visits and quality time with every pet I care for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on making them feel as comfortable as possible in their familiar environment. I provide fresh food and water, playtime, gentle attention, and clean up any messes. I always follow your specific instructions and send regular updates to keep you informed.

About: I've been surrounded by pets my whole life. I grew up with many cats (currently have 5) and a super loving golden retriever. Ever since I was 12, my neighbors and family friends have trusted me to watch their pets. Now that I'm away from home, I love any opportunity to spend time with animals. I can assure you your pets will be well taken care of and in loving hands with me!! I'm currently self-employed, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can house-sit or stop in for as long as you need any days/times of the week! I have watched many pets over the years. If you have a specific routine with your pet, I will easily be able to adapt to it so that your pet can stay in routine!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 7 years as well as fostering when I can. Your dogs will be treated like my own! Both neighbors & family members have offered me the chance to pet sit before anyone else because they knew their dogs were not only taken care of, but loved. There have been occasions when I could not pet sit & they moved around their vacation days just to have me over. They know my experience with dogs goes beyond my own & extends out to strays & for that reason, they trust in my ability to care & love for their animal friends. I’m very willing to bathe, give special care, run errands if necessary for the pet & tend to special instructions left to ensure the pets safety & well being. I take care of my three dogs on a daily basis from morning to night from feeding, timed medications, walks, backyard time & cuddles to their hearts content! It’s a must to understand all the rules & boundaries with pets & their owners. One of my own dogs has medications that cannot be missed & I have also watched after other dogs who have special dietary restrictions & have medications that need to be taken on time. In my experience, special care comes with frequent bathroom breaks, more love & attention, & a watchful eye. These are some of the things I’ve taken on while watching dogs/pets.

“Lindsey was incredible with our fur babies! She was very attentive to their needs including caring for one of our pups that was in heat. She was very thorough in learning their schedules and how to best care for them. She sent great updates and pictures. Will definitely be booking Lindsay again! 😁”

About: Hello! Don't let my profile location deter you from reaching out, I have a very wide service area. I am available to care for all of your pets while you're away! Please contact me for a quote if you have a pet you'd like me to care for other than a dog or cat (submit it as a dog/cat request) ☺️ New to Rover? I have a discount code for you if you book your first service with me! I am available for night and evening drop-ins to feed and play with your pets. Do you work nights and hate leaving your babies alone? Are you going to a fancy dinner and want to make sure your pets are okay when you're gone? I can come by and give you some peace of mind. I can also care for other pets, including lizards, fish, hamsters, rabbits, etc. I am a huge animal lover. I adopted a senior dog years ago and he was the best dog ever, up until his very last day in December, 2023. Our household has water snails, fish, three cats, a dog, and a pig! I have experience with rabbits and hamsters and other small pets, and I have experience with special needs animals. My longest boarding to date was 5 months for a senior cat with Cerebellar hypoplasia. My schedule recently changed, so I am available on most days for drop-ins and walks. I also offer boarding, house sitting, and daycare. We are a very animal friendly household. I have a fenced yard and a kiddie pool so your doggos can play and keep cool! My piggy will be there to keep your baby company and I have a 14 year old kid who loves to snuggle and play with all your pets! Cats will enjoy their own space so they can feel comfortable ☺️ !!!Important Notes!!!: I love watching and caring for your snuggle bug(s)! However, I have to sleep too. If you can't pick up your pet before 7pm, one additional day of boarding or doggy daycare will be added to your booking. An additional fee will be added for dogs over 40 pounds. Dogs under 1 year and/or "bully breeds" will be accepted on a case-by-case basis. By booking with me, you acknowledge that if your puppo damages property, you are responsible for any cost of repairs or replacement. When damage occurs, it is usually caused by pets that do not crate or have high anxiety when left alone for even short periods. My policy on dog breeds and sizes is in place because of two separate incidents. First, I lost a beloved pet to a boarded Rover doggo on Christmas morning, 2020. Having to put my little pig Minnie in the freezer after being attacked on Christmas morning was a horribly traumatic experience. In June 2023 I was attacked by a 110lb Rover dog at a meet and greet and had to go to the hospital. If the owner had not been present, I would have been killed. These are incidents that I will not risk repeating. Thank you so much for understanding!

“Tony was excellent. We were out of town for 11 days, he sent us updates and photos. He is an amazing communicator. Our flight canceled coming home and I had my sister go pick up the dogs, she said that the dogs were so calm and happy. He also left my house spotless. I couldn't be more happy with Tony's services. We will be going out of town a few more times this year, Tony will be our FIRST choice, nd hopefully only choice. We couldn't be more happy with the respect and love he gave to our home and our dogs. Thanks Again Tony.”

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, from newborn to senior I have cared for them all. Caring for animals is truly fulfilling. I work full time but I am available from Friday 5pm to Monday night. My dog is crate trained and she’s a tiny little lady so she won’t be a problem. I wouldn’t leave either my dog nor yours alone until I have verified they can play amicably. I live in a nice area where dog walking is common and there’s plenty of grass for long walks if needed

About: With 16+ years of service in the U.S. Air Force, I bring the same reliability, attention to detail, and commitment to care to every pet I look after. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Ranging from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, medication administration, frequent potty breaks (every 2–4 hours), and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s a brisk walk, backyard playtime, or quiet companionship, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. I have a somewhat flexible work and school schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, quality time to the pets I care for. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or simply companionship, I adjust my availability to meet each pet’s individual needs. My flexibility means I can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, ensuring your pet never feels rushed or neglected. I’m committed to creating a consistent routine that keeps pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort above all else. With a background in the Air Force, I bring attention to detail and a strong sense of responsibility to every pet sitting job. I create a calm, secure environment where pets can relax and feel loved. Whether it’s following feeding instructions precisely or handling emergencies calmly, you can trust me to treat your furry family member like my own.

“Phenomenal job. She cleaned up the apartment while we were gone, watched the dogs and paid a significant amount of attention to them, even hung out with our cats. She’s very respectful and I don’t think I could go to anybody else in the future now. She did everything in a timely manner and followed the care instructions I had sent her to a T. Highly recommend.”

“This was our 2nd time using Heather and we could not be happier. She takes extremely good care of our girls and the house. Both girls respond well to her and one of ours is very picky with people and gets easily stressed when I leave to the point of not eating or going to the bathroom but she warms up very quickly to Heather which says a lot about her! Thank you again!”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep commitment to not just caring for pets, but enhancing their well-being through specialized knowledge and skills. I'm currently working towards advanced training certifications, which reflects my dedication to continuous learning and professional development in pet care. As a service dog trainer, I have a unique understanding of canine behavior and training techniques. This experience allows me to provide structured, yet compassionate care and training to pets under my supervision. Whether it's working on obedience, behavior modification, or specific tasks, I apply these skills to help pets grow and thrive. Nutrition is another area where I bring added value. I have a strong background in pet nutrition, enabling me to make informed choices about the dietary needs of the pets I care for, if it is ever needed. This is especially important for pets with specific dietary requirements or health concerns. Puppy socialization and obedience are among my key strengths. I love working with puppies, helping them learn the ropes of social interaction, and guiding them through the critical stages of their development. My approach is always gentle, patient, and tailored to each puppy's unique personality and needs. I believe in treating every pet as if they were my own, with all the love, care, and attention they deserve. My goal is not just to be a sitter, but a positive influence in the lives of the pets I care for. No matter the service paid for, all dogs in my care will receive some play based, force free, positive only training for fun! I work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule with enables me to give your dog all of the care and attention it needs while in my care. I prioritize pet safety and comfort above all else. When caring for pets, either in my own home or in a client's home, I ensure that their environment is safe, secure, and tailored to their needs. This means removing any hazards, providing a cozy and comfortable space, and making sure they have access to fresh water and their preferred food. Building a bond with each pet is essential for me. I engage in playful activities that suit their personality and energy level, always focusing on positive reinforcement. This approach not only fosters trust but also helps in understanding their unique behaviors and needs. When it comes to training, I strictly adhere to force-free methods. This not only ensures the pet's physical well-being but also supports their mental and emotional health. By using positive reinforcement, I help pets feel confident and comfortable in my care. This approach is gentle, effective, and strengthens our bond, making their time with me a happy and stress-free experience.
