“Andrea was a delight to work with. Bailey loved having her and Chris take care of her. They were polite, took care of our girl and our home. We would certainly use them again.”
“Chloe was great! She was able to help us out on short notice and make adjustments as needed. We have a dog that is slightly aggressive with people entering the home and she handled it perfectly even when he gave her some issues. She kept us updated throughout the stay and wasn’t afraid to ask questions when needed. We will definitely be using her again and would recommend Chloe to friends!!”
“We’ve used Dominic twice now and know our dogs are in great hands!! She’s responsive, sends lots of photos and updates, and is respectful of our home. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone!!”
“Sean is professional and dependable! We have Three dogs, small, medium and large with varied personalities and he took great care of each one. We were gone 4 nights, it was so nice to receive photos and updates each day, something we never got from boarding with a kennel or vet! Communication was great! We highly recommend Sean and we will definitely be calling him again the next time we go out of town.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my whole life and have experience with all sizes and temperaments. I’m reliable, patient, and love making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for—just like they would at home. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so your pet will get lots of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I have a fenced yard and one dog who loves having company. I always prioritize a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, and I can easily crate your dog if needed. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure every pet feels secure, happy, and well cared for while in my home.
About: Being around animals for many years, I’ve grown to love providing services for our little friends. I have started dog sitting and dog walking, and even providing basic baths. I am available on all week days before 10, 1-3 mid days, and after 10pm. I am free for the whole day on Sunday :) I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I also follow all instructions by the owner including feeding schedules and exercise
About: Update: I will not be available May 18-25, and Jun 2-14 I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.
About: Hi there! I’m Krystal — a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent who has cared for animals of all kinds since I was young. From dogs and cats to small critters, I’ve always had a natural connection with pets and a genuine passion for their well-being. I attended Michigan State University’s pre-veterinary program, where I gained a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, and care. That background, combined with hands-on experience as a pet owner, gives me a calm, confident approach to handling pets with different personalities and needs. Whether I’m providing overnight boarding, drop-in visits, or daily walks, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and compassionate, ensuring your pets get the attention, affection, and structure they deserve. You can always count on me for open communication and updates, so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are safe, happy, and loved. ❤️ I am a current pet owner so pet care is always a part of my daily schedule. This is possible with planning and consistency. By viewing pet care as a necessary and enjoyable part of my schedule, I can assure pets receive the attention and care they need without overwhelming my professional life. I treat every pet as an individual and every client's home with the same respect and attention to detail that I would expect for my own.
“Carlee took good care of our old man Gus while we were gone. She provided updates when necessary and left the house in great condition. We will definitely use Carlee again!”
“Courtney was great! She followed all of our instructions, left the house as she found it, and the dogs were happy when we came home. Would definitely leave my pups with her again. Thank you!”
“Hannah was fantastic! She communicated with me the whole time. She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures! She responded quickly to messages, even before the booking. She really cares about peoples pets. I will definitely be using her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Allison, I am 32 years old and I have experience with a wide range and pet care! From bearded dragons, bunnies, goats, chickens, to dogs and cats I have taken care of them all! I had dogs and cats in my home my entire life and love everything about them! I am very active and love running with my own dogs but if that’s not your pups speed playing the yard or in the house with toys is always great! Or if they’re a more chill pup just hanging out together :) I have owned small and big dogs and worked in the veterinary field for 10 years so no dog scares me or worries me to walk or play with. I hope you choose me to help you and your pup out with a little interaction while you’re away! I am currently taking some time off from being a veterinary technician and am in online school full time so my schedule is very flexible for drop-in visits I am comfortable with any crate situation and medications for your fur baby if needed. Whatever set up you would like works for me as well, walking, running, or just hanging out in the back yard.
About: I’ve had my fair share of dogs and cats. Even though I’m a reptile girl, fur babies still have my heart. I’m here for them and you. I’m pretty flexible at the moment so don’t be shy to reach out whenever. We’ll be sure to have a great time! I like to read off the vibes of the babies. As long as they’re up for it, I’m willing to hangout. When they bring me a toy, I know I’m in the clear
About: I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and needs. I raised my two dogs, a Golden Retriever and a Cane Corso, from puppyhood through their senior years. They were part of my family for 14 and 11 years, so I have firsthand experience with every stage of a dog's life, from energetic puppies and adult dogs to seniors who need extra patience and attention. My experience with dogs actually began much earlier. Growing up, my family had a female French Poodle and a female Labrador, which also gave me experience caring for female dogs, including during their heat cycles. My Golden Retriever and Cane Corso were intact males, so I am comfortable with the additional care and management that intact dogs may require. I also have experience caring for other people's pets. While completing my master's and Ph.D. in Tallahassee, I pet sat for families with dogs of different sizes and breeds, sometimes caring for two dogs in the same household. I handled feeding, walks, playtime, routines, and companionship while their owners were away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine. Whether your dog is a puppy, an energetic adult, a large breed, or a senior, my priority is to provide patient, attentive care and make them feel safe and comfortable while they are with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible teaching schedule and am home for significant portions of the day, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. I am an experienced dog owner, and caring for dogs has been part of our daily lives for many years. I am happy to follow your dog's usual feeding, walking, exercise, and bedtime routine so they can feel as comfortable and at home as possible while you are away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else's care. I provide a calm, attentive home environment and will follow your dog's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I have experience with puppies, adult and senior dogs, large breeds, intact dogs, and multi-dog households. I pay close attention to each dog's behavior and individual needs and will keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention.
“We were very happy with how things went with Danielle! It was my first time hiring a stranger to watch my dogs but she was kind and instantly made me feel better. I would definitely recommend!”
“Aaron was absolutely amazing caring for our 3 doggies for 9 days. We were super nervous to leave them, but Aaron made us feel stress free. He was super communicative with morning, afternoon, and nighttime check-ins with pictures and how they spent their days. He went above and beyond, even cleaning, washing the linens, and leaving a delicious blueberry breakfast treat. He was exceptional. Our dogs loved him and he will definitely be our go-to person from now on.”

Paola was amazing! We were so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. We loved all the communication and the “report cards” telling us how they did while we were away. Lots of pics of Ben & Izzy too! We were super impressed! We’re definitely going to have her doggie sit again! 💕Nancy & Josh Scott

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 Farms 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 Farms 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Farms 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.
