“Tiera was great. My dog has special needs and isn’t good with people she doesn’t know. Tiera stayed with her over night. When I returned my dog was glad to see me but settle back into her normal routine. This told me she was comfortable with Tiera. I will use Tiera again definitely.”

About: I have over 5 years experience of pet walking and over night pet boarding. I have grown up with dogs for over 19 years and know how to care for them, love them, and entertain them! Since I am away at college without my dog, as a part time job, I would love to care for your pets! I have a very flexible schedule while in school. I can be available in the morning, afternoon, and night. I am also open on the weekends. Whatever safety requirements the pet owner needs, I can accommodate, I have experience with safe dog walking, I am able to crate your pet, and I can also administer medication, if needed.

“Desiree was absolutely perfect for us! She came ahead to meet our dogs and get an overview of the house and their routines. It was clear to us that she loves dogs and would be a caring sitter. Desiree communicated clearly, confirming timing before the service began. During our trip, Desiree sent regular check ins and pictures. We highly recommend her and will be using her going forward.”

About: Hi!! For my whole life I have always had a dog, Shih-tuzs mainly, however I have been around and taken care of various dogs all the way from Dachshunds to Pitbulls and of all ages as well! I love dogs and am very patient with walks, special necessities and more.

About: I have always had a family dog or two, so I have always been around dogs from a baby and I know how to handle and care for them. I also have taken care of neighbors’ and friends’ dogs while the owners were traveling I am currently a college student. Walking dogs would fit perfectly in my schedule because I have multiple gaps throughout the day when I could check on the pups. I can perform the usual tasks of feeding, watering and walking dogs. I also understand the importance of picking up after your dog. And I am great with giving dogs lots of love and affection.

About: I have the biggest heart for animals. I grew up with a golden retriever and 3 cats, but have been surrounded by friends and family’s animals my whole life. Many people in my town back home will have me walk their pups, stop in and let them out, and trust me to stay with their furry friends for days at a time. I have a very open class schedule so I am able to be very flexible and all over the place when it comes to to pet care I live in a 2 story townhouse with 2 girl roommates who love animals as well. Your pet is sure to get LOTS of love if he stays with us. There is a fenced in park right behind my house with lots of space to walk and play. I’d also love to bring these dogs to the beach or on a walk on some trails!

About: I have so much genuine love for animals and my experience with a wide range of pets. I'm super comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. I've got some training experience with puppies, so I can help reinforce basic commands and good behavior. Plus, I'm really good at recognizing when a pet might need extra attention or medical care, especially with older animals. I always make sure to keep their routines consistent and give them lots of love! I make sure pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine by prioritizing it. I schedule specific blocks of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and any necessary vet visits. I also keep a flexible schedule so I can adjust to any unexpected needs or emergencies that may arise. Since I don’t watch dogs at my place, I focus on providing top-notch care in my clients' homes. When I'm at your place, I stick to your pet's routine as closely as possible, so they feel secure and comfortable. I always make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I'm also super careful about keeping their environment clean and safe.

“Larissa is absolutely amazing! This was the second time she’s watched our 11-month-old pup, Goose, and she once again went above and beyond. Goose had just had surgery recently, and we needed someone we could completely trust. Larissa was that person. She is incredibly communicative and attentive, keeping us updated with messages and photos so we always knew he was doing great. You can tell she truly cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and willing to go the extra mile for your pet, book Larissa! She’s a total pro, and we strongly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. By the time I was 16, I had nine cats in my home, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience caring for multiple pets and understanding their individual needs. For the past 2.5 years, I’ve also been raising and caring for a special-needs dog, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, attentiveness, and providing extra care when needed. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I would treat your pets like my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and reliable care! I work from 11:00 AM to 4:30 PM, but I’m available to care for pets outside of those hours. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love before and after work. I can also discuss availability on weekends and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s schedule and individual needs! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I have lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs, including raising a special-needs dog, so I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and following each pet’s specific needs and routines. I’m happy to care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I’ll always treat your home with respect and your pets like my own!

I highly recommend London's dog-sitting services. My dog fell in love with London within seconds of meeting her—it truly was love at first sight. From the very beginning, it was obvious how deeply she cares for animals. She has a calm, gentle manner that immediately put our dog at ease, whether she was playing with him, taking him for walks, or simply spending time with him. While we were away, London kept us updated with thoughtful text messages and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. She took the initiative to learn every detail about our dog's routine and care, followed all of our instructions carefully, and went above and beyond by meeting with us before our trip to ensure everything would go smoothly. We returned home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend London to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter.

Christopher did a great job taking care of my two babies! One of my dogs was having a medical issue while I was gone and Christopher promptly notified me of his condition. He was willing to take him to the vet, if necessary. Fortunately, it wasn’t necessary and everything turned out ok. Then, my delayed flight caused a missed flight and Christopher was flexible and willing to stay longer to accommodate the situation. He was great with providing me with detailed updates on how they were doing each day I was gone. My dogs were well taken care of and happy when I got home. My house was left clean and he even put my garbage on the curb on trash pickup day. I would not hesitate to have Christopher take care of my fur babies in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Highland Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Highland Beach is $64 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $100 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 3,385 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Highland Beach. 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 Beach 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 Beach 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 Beach 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 Beach. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
