“I cannot recommend Andy enough! Throughout our weeklong trip, she provided consistent communication on how our two dogs (one of which is special needs) were doing. Her care - daily walks, pets, and treats - ensured that she quickly became a favorite human! Plus, she helped troubleshoot when an opossum caught our older dog’s attention. Her professionalism and thoughtfulness are superb and put our minds at ease during long international travel.”

About: I’ve taken care of different breeds of dogs, As well as domestic kinds of animals. When working with different animals I make sure I know everything I can about their routine, training, schedules so that they are returned back to owner, the owner is very satisfied with my service with their pets. I connect very well with the animals so that they are very comfortable with me and so that owner feels confortabke entrusting me with their pets. With puppies i make sure to ask all necessary questions with potty training making sure they are taken out often, to any current training being worked on with owner at home. With senior dogs making sure any routine they are on with eating walking or any possible medications are kept on track. Please let me know if their are any questions. Currently I am a stay at home Mom. Any routine any owner needs me to stick with it will be worked with and stay on track with training. I can take 1-2 dogs at a time. I like to do meet and greets so that new pets and their owners can get to know me and feel comfortable with their pets being in my care. Would need to be potty trained and neutered/spade. I love animals that are cuddle bugs! I do not have a fenced in yard but my house large enough for play and can go on walks nearby by park by house. I make sure a gate is up in my house so I can keep an eye on all pets being watched.

About: I have experience pet sitting for friends and neighbors since high school and would love caring for your pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a job but my time is very flexible due to me being an on demand worker! I am able to stay for as long as you need and do many walks I am good with following whatever routine your dog might have including feeding, walking, playing, fresh water ect. As for my pets I have 3 sweet cats and 1 dog who I love spending time with. They are very happy and loved.

“Levi was amazing. Literally nothing could have been better. Jeronimo took to him like a duck to water and cuddles with him. He’s amazing with my pup and look forward to booking again for all my future needs! Levi respected my home, and it was left in pristine condition. He took very good care of Jeronimo and sent me frequent updates and photos. I could literally not be happier. I’d say you should book him, but don’t because I don’t want his availability taken from me. 😂”

Her experience in animal behavior and working at a vets office really gives her an edge for assisting him. I know I can always put my full trust in Savannah with Reggie’s care.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and worked as a dog walker throughout college for four years. I’ve fostered nine cats, three of whom I loved so much they became permanent members of my family. These days I share my home with three cats and my shihpoo, Peanut, so I understand pets from every angle — but I care for clients in their own home, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or house-sitting. Your pet stays comfortable in their own space while getting attentive, experienced care. I structure my days around my pets, so caring for yours fits naturally into my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding, and I keep a flexible schedule that lets me give your pet real attention rather than a rushed visit. Weekday mornings and evenings are usually open, along with some weekends. Since I care for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible — sticking to their regular feeding, walk, and sleep schedule so there’s minimal disruption. My experience with three cats, a shihpoo, and nine foster cats means I’m comfortable reading animal body language, handling multi-pet households, and following specific instructions for feeding, medication, or behavioral needs.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other small animals. I used to pet-sit and house-sit in high school/college, and now I work from home full-time, so I have some flexibility to offer whatever services you may need! I have a 4-year-old Cavapoo named Ringo who I trained/potty-trained on my own. He's a super chill dog who gets along well with other dogs. I work from home full-time (9am-5pm), so I can stay at your home to house-sit/pet-sit if you prefer, or I can do drop-ins at any point during the morning/day/night. I live in an apartment, so I can't keep your pets at my home. But I have a car, so I can take them to the dog park or on walks—whatever you prefer!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I will regularly keep you updated with visits and can follow whatever special instructions necessary! I’ll treat your pet like family and hopefully keep them from missing you too much. I have a background in teaching swim, which has taught me lots of patience, responsibility, and carefulness. While I am currently away at school, at home I took care of my 2 dogs - feeding them daily, walking them twice a week, and bathing them biweekly. This was part of my responsibilities at home and still help with them when I go home to visit. When I’m caring for your pet in your home, I will do my best to ensure they feel comfortable and are sticking to their normal routine. I will respect your, and their space and give them lots of love!

About: We had three dogs growing up. I’ve had three of my own as well. I am currently the go to sitter for my best friend’s dog. I’ve cared for dogs in extreme health situations/have seen just about everything. I’m great with dogs/love spending time with them. I also work remotely and am available to come and pet sit. I am open to potentially boarding, but I would have to talk to my landlords first. I work from home, with two thirty minute breaks. I do not start until 10:30 and can do morning walks or feeding. I’m off at 6:30 and can do evening walks or feeding as well. I’ve had a full range of experience caring for my dogs over the years. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding and basic grooming. I also have experience with a wide variety of medications and have no problem giving supplements or medication at your direction. Since I work remotely, as long as there is some desk space to set up and Internet service, I can stay over any day of the week if needed. I consider myself a good communicator and am happy to send updates or answer any questions you may have.

Bethany was great! She kept us updated throughout her stay with plenty of pictures and messages about how the dogs were doing, which we really appreciated! She even made sure to let me know when she noticed one of our dogs was limping, and I was so grateful that she paid attention and communicated that with us. On top of taking great care of our dogs, she left our house spotless! We would absolutely recommend Bethany and would love to have her watch our dogs again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Highland Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Highland Heights is $31 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $35 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 October 2026, there are 1,261 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Highland Heights. 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 Heights 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 Heights 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 Heights 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 Heights. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
