Jasmine was great!! She took amazing care of our two cats while we were out of town. She’s super communicative, takes great photos, and really went the extra mile to keep the cat stuff (food/water bowls and litter boxes) clean. Would definitely recommend her!

Maddie was absolutely wonderful! She sent thorough and detailed messages and photos after every drop in visit. Our dogs loved and trusted her immediately. She made our weekend away so much more relaxing because we knew our dogs were being taken such good care of. 100% recommend!

Excellent job! I am very pleased with the way Isabelle took time to play with my cat. Last time I went away she was so anxious and stressed when I came home because that sitter just went in and out. But this time, my cat was happy to see me and there were no accidents! I will definitely use Isabelle in the future!

Kelly was really great with our cats. Appreciated the daily updates and pics. She always let us know if her schedule changed a little so we wouldn't worry. Our kitties were calm and happy and healthy when we got back, so we were happy too!

Christopher was fantastic. He proactively set up a meet and greet prior to my trip. We discussed times, feedings. Etc. He was an excellent communicator. Provided check ins for each visit including photos and comments on food consumption and demeanors. I highly recommend for any of your pet sitting needs.

I do not have the easiest cats. One is super shy and the other just tolerates people. Amanda did a great job with them! She patiently coaxed my shy one out and even got my standoffish one to play. She sent video snippets that showed they were happy and well taken care of. Thank you, Amanda!!

Rover review She took great care of Hazy while I was away. He unfortunately developed vomiting and diarrhea during my trip, so she had to clean up after him daily and keep a close eye on him. It may have been anxiety- but nonetheless-She even brought a probiotic from home for him, which I really appreciated. I ended up adding three extra visits so she could continue monitoring him, and she was reliable and communicative throughout. I really appreciated her taking on the extra work while Hazy wasn’t feeling well.

Paula was reliable, communicative, and willing to take on administering oral medication for both of my cats, which I really appreciated since that can be hard to find. There was a bit of a learning curve at the start with the medication process, but she adapted quickly and was receptive to guidance. I would book Paula again for future visits. She did a great job and I’m grateful for her services.

Tristan did a great job taking care of Lucy! As a cat with IBD, she needs someone to pay careful attention and care and Tristan did just that. I was nervous to leave her but was glad Tristan was the one taking care of her- he was in constant communication about how she was doing and always included lots of pictures and a video. He has no issues administering medicine, either via pill pocket or ear ointment. We would definitely consider Tristan again to take care of Lucy!

I met Jay today for a paid meet and greet with my dogs. It was a great visit!! He confirmed a few hours before the visit via text, and arrived on time for the visit. He showed up prepared, having previously read all the profile pages of each of my dogs, and asked great questions. My dogs loved him!! I have one dog who's a little more nervous to meet new people and she was very comfortable with Jay. It was obvious that Jay really loves animals and that he cares about their happiness and well-being. I'm glad this is a great fit because I have some trips coming up that I will need help with, and am lucky that Jay will be able to stay at my house!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Highland on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of September 2026, there are 17,552 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
