About: I have had plenty of pets since I was little, and have always been the one my family relied on to care for them. A lot of friends also reach out to me to watch after a their pets I’m working full time as an assistant manager at DQ, I have a fairly flexible schedule. I will be going back to school in the fall, so my schedule will be a bit tighter. I often dog sit for my grandpa and friends at work. I don’t offer this right now because I still live with my parents but will in a few months after i find my own apartment that of course, welcomes pets!!

About: I have been around all sorts of animals since I was a baby. I had a German shepherd growing up. Now I own a hound mix who is very energetic and keeps me busy which I like. While I was in college I worked at my teams stable and took care of my coaches horses, chickens, and her donkey. Since I own a dog of my own, pet care is in my every day life. I am a server at Dante’s house of pizza. Even with my busy work schedule I still have plenty of time to take my own dog to the park, walk him, and play with him. I want to share my love by taking care of other peoples animals. I can ensure them that their furry friends will be safe in my care. My dog’s name is Gino and he loves being outdoors whenever we can be. He loves going on walks with other dogs. He is really happy when I take him to my friend’s house to play with their dogs. My dog is very spoiled and gets to snuggle up with me in bed. I am responsible to take him to the vet when he needs his yearly check up. I make sure he is well groomed and well fed.

Kayla was incredible! She took care of our two cats, one of whom has diabetes! Her attention to detail and dedication to their well-being were outstanding. We felt at ease knowing they were in her capable hands. Kayla went above and beyond, and we're incredibly grateful for her excellent care. Highly recommend her services!

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, from my friends to family all having different breeds of dogs! I am very active, so dogs with lots of energy and needing lots of walks are no problem for me! I have dog sit before. I have a love for all animals and whatever comes with them. I am currently working a summer job, mainly all day, but I have no problem waking up early to walk a pet before work or after work, even during lunch! My weekends are normally always free! And Fridays I can tend to the pet more due to having half days. I do not offer services at my house due to having cats who are shy. But in my clients home I will do anything they need me to do regarding their pet. It is my job to make sure their furry baby is in the best hands!

Riley did an amazing job checking in on our pup Charlie. She came over and met us ahead of time, sent us updates and pictures, and was very flexible. It really put our mind at ease to know Charlie was well taken care of. We plan on using her again in the future!

I always go out of my way to make sure that your pet has a good time and enjoys their walks! I have trained my dog and have helped train other dogs that I have taken care of. I am a college student and have a maximum of 3 classes a day so my schedule is open to be there for your pet when needed. Taking care of a dog brightens up my day and I hope to do the same for your pet! I am very respectful of your home and your pet, I follow home care instructions very seriously and will follow boundaries. My overall goal to make sure your pet has the best care possible while respecting your home.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I dedicated most of my time to them, and I even trained a cat multiple tricks at the age of 10. I have raised 3 dogs since I was 11, including training. I am very good at understand body language, because every animal deserves respect. I have school from 7-10:30 am and then the rest of my day is free to care for animals! Some days during the week I am unavailable. I currently don’t have any pets in my home, but I am very used to it. I believe quality time can determine each pet’s specific set of needs.

About: For as long as I can remember I have taken care of, rescued, and cared for animals. Through out my life I have over all had 18 animals in my house hold (at one point in time 8 cats all under the same roof) and I have often helped taken care of animals of family and friends. I have checked in on dogs for noon outside time and potty breaks as well as stayed at a home for as long as a month to take care of a cat. I have experience with pets in all stages of life and in handling animals with different temperaments. I have also given animals medications (from diabetic shots to thyroid pills to special prescription food) and I am very active in taking care of them. Currently I have one dog and three cats that I share with my partner, all of whom I have taken care of from early on in their lives. I am currently in between jobs so most days and times I am available. I do share a car but we always work together to figure out who can use the car when. Just let me know what you need and when and I will work with you to figure out a schedule that works for both of us. I am very respectful of other's homes, making sure things are clean and nothing is messed up. Whether your fur baby tore up a rug or I accidentally broke something, there will be full transparency on what happened while you're away. I can send daily text check ins and don't mind being called daily to ensure everything is alright, your animals are family and I will treat them as such. Any house rules or animal schedules you have set I will abide by. I will give your animal full attention and do what I can to give them what they need.

About: I am a future veterinarian looking to gain experience with all kinds of fur babies. I am skilled in brushing, nail trimming and administering medications to cats and dogs. I am loving to all pets (even those who don’t love me back 😆) and I am willing to have frequent communication with owners to ensure they are comfortable with leaving their baby in my care. Pet care is a daily thing for me, if I’m not looking after my own animals I am looking after loved pets at my job. Helping animals helps me, it’s something I can’t imagine NOT doing. My availability ranges as I am a college student and changes every few months as my classes change! Please just reach out and I will work with you to see if I’m the right fit for your furbaby! Thank you for being patient with a working college student I truly appreciate it. 🐾❤️ While I do not offer pet care in my own home, I am willing to accommodate any type of animal needs. I will care for them to their owners content and be sure to provide them with updates and photos. I am very open to communication and redirection, if I do something that displeases a client I would like to know immediately so we can prevent miscommunications in the future. If the clients want I am willing to meet before hand to discuss plans on caring for their animal.

About: I provide dependable dog walking and drop-in services focused on keeping your pets safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet’s care. I have two large dogs of my own, ages 7 and 9, so I’m very familiar with handling bigger breeds, different energy levels, and daily routines. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a potty break, or a longer walk to burn off energy, I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. I work full-time during the day M-F, but I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits in the evenings and on weekends. I’m happy to help provide reliable care during those times to fit your schedule and your pet’s needs. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routines and home environment. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box or yard clean up, and plenty of attention and playtime based on your pet’s personality. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for while you’re away.

Taryn was absolutely great and would highly recommend her. I booked her last minute and she was very flexible all throughout as I needed to add additional days for Roxy’s visits. Great communication with sending photos and updates on daily basis. I would highly recommend and would definitely use Taryn in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Highland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Highland on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 9,014 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Highland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Highland stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Highland 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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Highland with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highland. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
