House Sitting Highland

“Mercy sent lots of updates and both of our pups seemed to like her a lot! Everything was in great shape when we got home and we won't hesitate to use her services again.”

Rachel & Josh O.

“I had a great first experience with Penny! She was on time, sent updates and photos, left my home the way she found it, and seemed happy to spend time with my pups. Will definitely have her back.”

Angie P.

“Rachel was amazing! She did a great job with our cats and dog. We unexpectedly needed a second overnight pet sitter, she was quick to respond to my request. Thankfully, it worked with her schedule. It was a relief to know someone familiar with our pets was able to care for them again.”

Lindsay G.

“We didn't know Julie beforehand except for doing a brief meet-and-greet, but she stayed at our house with our small dog for a long weekend when we were traveling, and did a great job. I always worry about my little pup who is very shy and attached to my wife and me, and has a hard time warming up to other people. She was shy and probably confused at first, since this was only the second time we left her for the weekend, but she clearly warmed up to Julie after the first day. Julie was great about promptly responding to our messages asking how things were going, and sending pictures and videos. She kept our house very clean and even took out the trash and washed our bedding before we got home. I would definitely hire her again!”

Gabriel & Yoshika G.

“We had Alex for a short overnight stay and she was great! She provided us with updates throughout the day… we had no worries while we were away, knowing our dog was being well taken care of. We would love to have Alex again sometime!”

Jennifer L.

“McKenna is so prepared, communicative, and sweet to our pup! She asked questions when needed and kept us updated on how our dog was doing while we were away. She also took great care of our home and we would be delighted to have her back any time, and completely trust her with our dog. 10/10 experience!!”

Megan S.

“Kristina is ah-ma-zing! She sends multiple videos/photos during the stay, and obviously loves working with animals. She’s excellent person and we will rebook with her in a heart beat”

Rozene E.

“Katherine is an awesome sitter. She is super caring to my pups and they were so calm and relaxed when we got home. She is super easy to communicate with and I never worried once that our girls were not having the best time with her. Will definitely be calling her again! Thank you Katherine for taking such great care of these two goofballs and our home. You’re the best!!!”

FrankiJo T.

“Liz is amazing and I can’t recommend her enough!! She is very conscientious and sent me lots of updates. She was very patient with all the pets and took things at their pace. By the end of her stay, they all loved her and enjoyed her company. She was very respectful of the house and even went above and beyond to clean everything for when we got back. I felt reassured and knew that everyone was in good hands. I will definitely reach out to her for future trips!!”

Grace D.

“Carolyn treated my dog so well! She followed my notes to a T and ensured that she got lots of exercise and stimulation. She also provided frequent updates and photos. I can tell she cares deeply about animals, and I’m grateful she was able to watch my girl while I was out of town. I will definitely keep her in mind for future pet sitting needs!”

Michelle G.

“Sabrina stayed at our house for a long weekend to take care of our three large dogs. She followed all of our instructions and made sure our dogs were happy and safe while we were gone. We loved getting pics and updates to know that everyone was doing well. It was so nice coming home to a clean house and happy dogs ? Thanks Sabrina!”

About: I started off as a volunteer dog walker at the Minneapolis Animal Care and Control (4 hours/month). Now, I walk dogs regularly for several families throughout the week during my mornings and lunch breaks. I have some flexibility in my daily schedule as I currently work fully remote. I aim to walk dogs in the morning or lunch time. I do occasionally travel for work for about a few days out of the month (exclusively during the weekdays). But I always make sure to keep my calendar updated as much as I can. When I’ve taken care of my friend’s or neighbor’s pets, it’s been for a couple of days or a week. Sometimes, I would drop by to feed them and bring them out. Or there’d be times where I’d just sit and do work at their home while occasionally taking breaks to play or socialize with their pet.

“Tilia did a fantastic job with my stubborn but rambunctious dog Luna. Luna was in great spirits when I got home, the house was in perfect condition and she even watered my plants! Would definitely have her sit Luna again.”

Julie H.

“We truly lucked out with Julie when we asked her to start dog sitting for us about 4 years ago now. She is reliable, knowledgeable about pets and their needs, and truly cares for the animals and people she works with. Our dog Kona absolutely adores Julie and gets so excited whenever she comes to visit. We have tried boarding in facilities a couple times, but she just gets so anxious to be away from her space, so we are very thankful that Julie is able to come to us and give Kona the 1:1 attention and care she needs.”

Kyra O.

“Christine did an excellent job caring for our two dogs and house. We were greatful she was willing to house/dog sit for us when we had a last minute family emergency pop up.”

Jacob D.

“Lilah is now our go to Rover for home stays when we are out of town! She checks in when she arrives, sends pictures daily and takes our dog for a walk. We will gladly have her stay again!”

Megan G.

“Rachel was awesome! She was great at communicating and kept me well updated while I was away. My pup was happy and content in her care. She was super flexible with my last minute scheduling. She did an awesome job.”

Bryanna C.

“Cristina is awesome! She took Calvin out and threw his ball for him, snuggled in bed in the morning, and sent me plenty of pictures and updates! Have Cristina watch your dog, you won't be sorry!”

Tom H.

“I wish I could give Allison more than 5 stars! She did an amazing job communicating, sending photos, and taking care of our Frenchie & Pitbull. From dealing with some messes from our sick/anxious pup on the first day to going for a long walk once the weather cooled down a bit, Allison was fantastic, positive, and comforting to have in our home. On our end, the whole experience was really great and went without a hitch. Would 100% book with Allison again and recommend her to anyone with dogs in the Detroit area.”
