“Allison was AMAZING with my parent’s highly anxious dog. She was willing to help on short notice, and was flexible with us as things changed during the stay! She sent daily photos and videos to us, and checked in with updates on how things were going. Harper loved her, and we’ll absolutely be using Allison again in the future!”
“Emily has been very attentive and dependable with our dog, and we appreciate the care she gives while we’re away. She also takes her on walks, which our dog loves. When we return home, our dog is calm and settled, which is always a good sign that she’s been well cared for. Emily also lives very close to us, which makes scheduling especially convenient. We appreciate having someone nearby we can trust to look after our dog.”
“Mark made me feel relaxed and it ease as soon as he came into our house and quickly made the dogs feel that way as well! A very gentle disposition and quiet demeanor helped our dogs be at ease. Thank you so much for helping us, Mark!”
“Jada was AMAZING! We have both cats and dogs and she was great with all our animals! She was quick to respond to messages, very caring with our pets and sent us the cutest pictures! She was a huge help and we will definitely be utilizing Jada again in the future!”
About: Since 2016, I’ve gained experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I started pet sitting as a teen for family and friends! When I moved to college I always expressed my love for dogs and was offered a few different month long positions that led me to pet sitting full time! I built a large clientele in Cedar City from 2020-2025. Including dogs, cats, birds, chickens, and horses! Whether your pet loves long walks, extra playtime, snuggles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience with lots of different breeds of dogs, administering medications, anxious dogs, and puppies. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so communication is a top priority for me. I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. For the summer time pet care is my full time job, during the school year I work 8-2 and my local elementary school. I am also a full time online graduate student. Most of my free time after taking care of your pets is spent studying. I love doing an in home visit before I watch your animals to make sure I understand the routine. I ask that you leave a detailed note for me to review while you are away to ensure I am providing the correct care for your animals. I prioritize their routine and schedule my plans or routines around them. I am known to leave your house the way I found it. I’ve had owners worried I didn’t make myself comfortable by how clean I left the place!
“We LOVED having Adrian house/dog sit for us! She was very responsive and sent me lots of updates/photos/videos. I also appreciate her ability to be flexible when my flight was cancelled at the last moment. My dogs were well taken care of and seemed VERY happy while I was away, my house was spic and span when I got home. We will absolutely have Adrian as a sitter again.”
“This was our first time using Jessica, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met her, we felt comfortable and knew our dogs were in good hands. She was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and never made me feel like I was being a worry wart. She understood that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful and was always kind, responsive, and reassuring. Jessica took excellent care of our dogs, especially our French Bulldog, who requires extra attention in the Utah heat. She clearly took her responsibilities seriously, made sure they had plenty of potty and outdoor breaks, cleaned up after them, and paid close attention to their needs. She also took great care of our home, brought in our packages, and left everything just as we had hoped. We truly lucked out finding Jessica. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy Rover sitter.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve cared for dogs and cats, for years growing up and am also a Certified Veterinary Assistant. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Whether that’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or medication if needed, I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own! My schedule is very flexible this summer, so I’m able to work around your pet’s routine and care needs. Whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, or overnight care, I’m happy to help. I know how important consistency can be for pets, and I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away! I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that lightly. As a Certified Veterinary Assistant, I’m comfortable giving medications, recognizing when something seems off, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I love taking the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and all the little things that make them unique. My goal is to make sure your pets are happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands!

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve pet-sat for friends and family, including daily visits, walks, feeding, and overnight stays. I’m attentive to routines and take time to get to know each pet’s personality so they feel comfortable and safe. I’m patient with shy or anxious animals and happy to go at their pace. I’m reliable and communicative, and I send regular photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I take pride in keeping pets happy and homes tidy while owners are away. I’m currently not working full time, so I have lots of flexibility and availability to care for your pets within your desired schedule and routine. I am a dependable and responsible person who will follow instructions and care for your pet like it’s my own. I always try to leave the pet and the home better than I found it.

Allison was amazing! She was dependable, responsible, and took great care of my dog, Jojo, while I was away. She kept in constant communication and followed my instructions perfectly. I really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent of Jojo. She took Jojo on three walks a day, which was more than I expected. Since my dog loves walks, she was in heaven while Allison was caring for her. Allison also took excellent care of my house and left everything clean and organized. She even washed the sheets before leaving. I will definitely book her again in the future!
Emily has been very attentive and dependable with our dog, and we appreciate the care she gives while we’re away. She also takes her on walks, which our dog loves. When we return home, our dog is calm and settled, which is always a good sign that she’s been well cared for. Emily also lives very close to us, which makes scheduling especially convenient. We appreciate having someone nearby we can trust to look after our dog.
Hallee was an absolute dream to work with! This was the first time I had ever opted to hire a house/pet sitter instead of boarding my dogs, and I will absolutely do it moving forward. Hallee went above and beyond to make sure my pups felt comfortable. Both my dogs require daily medication, which she was okay with and has lots of experience doing! When I arrived from my trip, my house looked exactly as it did when I left. She was super tidy! I would absolutely recommend booking with Hallee if you're looking for a sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Highland
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Highland on Rover is $27.75 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,704 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Highland. 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 Highland 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 Highland 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 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!
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.
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 .
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 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.

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.
