“Highly recommend using Irma for your pet needs. She was friendly, communicative, and punctual. She also left us a clean home to come back to which we appreciated, and my dogs were healthy and happy once we arrived. Would definitely use her in the future!”

“Briana did amazing. She went above and beyond for my pups. One had recent surgery for a CCL and weighs 60 pounds, and I was surprised to see her carrying up and down the stairs (3 flights) the entire weekend I was gone. Was not expecting that. Definitely would recommend and will be using her in the future!”

“This is the first time I have used Rover because for many years we have had our friends available to us, until this trip. I found it to be a really easy process and without it, we never would have found Faith! I am so thankful! Faith is amazing! Our "boys" loved her right away! She followed my instructions, and was able to get one our dogs to do something we have a hard time doing ourselves! This demonstrated the trust he had in Faith immediately. If you are looking for a trustworthy, dependable, kind, and loving sitter for your fur babies in your home, then I highly recommend you hire Faith!! You will be very happy you did!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I could remember. I currently have three dogs and they always enjoy having another friend come over to hang out with! I work full time Monday through Thursday but am flexible with being able to work from home on specific days. Our weekends are spent at home spending time in the yard or going on walks in our local neighborhood parks. I have a fenced yard that holds a garden and chicken coop that gives our dogs a great spot for new smells. Dogs are all welcome to stay inside if that is their preference and we are able to have them in their crate if preferred.

About: I have had two dogs since I was 14 but have loved animals my whole life. I started to watch some of my friend’s dogs when I hit 18 and now that I’m back home I’d love to have some more dogs to take care of! I am currently working 7-3:30 M-F but I’m free to stay overnight, walk your pups before and after work, and am free on the weekends! Whatever schedule you have for your dog I can keep. I can make sure they follow their routine so you can have a break! I unfortunately can’t have dogs stay at my house but I’m more than happy to stay overnight and make sure your dogs are taken care of.

About: I've had pets since I was born, so usually i'm quick to be befriended by most animals. Over the years I have had experience with taking care of many pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and I’m always loving and attentive with all of them! I am available for regular walks in Tri-cities and overnight stays in both my camper home/your home! I am also available for walks weekdays between 7am-5pm weekdays (depending on location). Weekends I am available from 7am-3pm, unless boarding which is much more flexible! Care for your pets will be given with my absolute undivided attention! Pets are always welcome in my camper home, which sits on a grassed garden area in lovely Benton City. I kindly ask that supplies (including doggy bags, crates and bowls) should be provided by you upon arrival, as well as anything your pet may find comforting to have with them.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. For the past six years, I've cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other small animals. I've owned and cared for dogs of all sizes, from extra large breeds to small companion dogs, and no amount of energy is too much. I love keeping active and making sure every pet gets the exercise, playtime, and attention they need. At home, I have three dogs, two cats, and several reptiles, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic medications, cleaning habitats, or simply providing companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and my goal is to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My schedule is very flexible right now, allowing me to accommodate last-minute bookings, extended visits, and changes in plans whenever possible. If you need reliable pet care on short notice, just reach out, and I'll do my best to be on my way as soon as possible. I'm happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets receive the care they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a pet owner myself to three dogs, two cats, and several reptiles, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry, feathered, or scaly family member in someone else's care. I strive to create a calm, loving, and stress-free environment where every pet feels safe and secure. I carefully follow your pet's routine, respect any special instructions, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Whether your companion is energetic, shy, young, or a senior, I'll treat them with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets.

About: I have been working full time with Rover for the past three years. I love animals more then I would ever be able to put in words and will treat yours like part of our family while they are with us. Dog sitter in home or at the home of the animal : Will provide walks, feeding, play time, baths if needed, any other needs requested, and most of all cuddling. Walking: Would want to talk with owner about what they would like to see in a walk. Am willing to do whatever is needed. Boarding: Am willing to board all breads as needed. Will feed, walk, cuddle, and clean. Also able to provide any other special requests. Regardless of the need I am here to make your fur baby's as happy as can be. I have been around animals my entire life and have always been the one that people go to when there is a animal they just can't seem to work with. Thank you for taking the time to read about me and I would love the chance to talk with you about your pet care needs. My schedule is extremely flexible and most often able to accommodate your needs. I have a fully fenced back yard with plenty of room to run and play. We have two dogs who loves meeting new playtime friends. I have a fully fenced in back yard and a dog friendly and safe home. When new dogs come over we like to introduce them to our babies outside so they are all on common ground. Your baby will be treated as if they are part of our pack. We like to keep all animals schedules as close to their normal daily routine as possible. That involves walks, play time, feedings, and sleeping. Currently I am a virtual counselor and am able to set my schedule to meet my needs. Your animals care will be my too priority. I have two very well behaved dogs one is my partners service dog then spends the majority of his time working with dad but loves his time with his fur friends, kids, and other humans. My other dog is a small silky who loves all people and dogs big or small. When pets come into our home we keep their schedule as normal to home as possible. Meaning they sleep where their owner suggests as well as get feedings and walks based on what they are happy with and used to.

“Jamie did a great job managing my pup all throughout my move in day. She was flexible, prompt, attentive, and communicated well. Plus, Sam loved her! She also came to do a midday walk the next day, and Sam knew her right away and did great with her.”

Kristen did a phenomenal job. I had to book last minute and was lucky she had time. She took care of my dog Trixy and cat Sprinkles for a week, house sitting. She took Trixy on her daily walks and sent tons of photos. Managed all of the different things I asked of her. She was a courteous guest in my home, everything looked like it did when I left. Amazing communication, Sprinkles has an eye irritation and she reached out to see if she should take him to the vet. This was something I am already aware of but really appreciate her keeping a watchful eye on my babies.

FAQs for House Sitting - Highland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 250 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 , 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 .

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

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
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
