About: I’m a Registered Nurse and lifelong animal lover, and I bring that same level of care and attention to your pets. I’ve been a devoted cat mom for many years, including caring for senior cats who needed both oral and topical medications. I also grew up with dogs and genuinely enjoy walking, playing, and cuddling with them. I’m Red Cross certified in Cat and Dog First Aid, so you can feel confident your pets are in knowledgeable, capable hands. As a solo provider, I get to know each pet personally and tailor my care to their needs. If you’re looking for a gentle, medically aware sitter or walker, I’d be happy to help care for your furry family members. Being self-employed, my schedule is easily adaptable to fit clients' needs. I allow for enough time between clients so that our time together is not rushed. I will respect your home & follow your care instructions completely. For walks, I'll ensure your pet is safe while getting the amount of attention and activity they need.

She was very thorough in our meet and greet, and with us going out of town for a week, it gave us such peace of mind to know that Sandra would be tending to all of them. I know they must have loved spending time with her with how happy everyone was on our return. We will definitely reach out to Sandra again in the future!”

About: Hi! Thanks for stopping by my page :) Animals have always held a special place in my heart. Growing up I had two cats and even a fire-bellied toad! They gave me wonderful childhood memories while teaching me the value of responsibility and compassionate care. As I got older, friends and neighbors began asking me to care for their pets, and I was always happy to help. Looking after animals-big or small-has brought me so much joy. I’ve had the privilege of pet sitting dogs of all sizes, cats, and a guinea pig. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and cats as well as a kitten, and I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. My goal is to provide your pet with the same love, attention, and care they receive at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in responsible hands. Whether your pet loves cuddles, playtime, long walks or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and are well cared for while you’re away. I’m also willing to send pictures with updates on your pets for extra peace of mind. My schedule is pretty open right now so I’m very flexible and happy to stop by when you need. Just let me know what works best for you and I’ll do my best to accommodate with your schedule! When dropping in, I’m happy to stick to their daily routines and what makes them comfortable. I will always keep them leashed for walks and when going outdoors (unless the yard is fenced).

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and taken care of them by myself as well as helping friends and family care for theirs when they were away. My schedule is pretty open but changes day to day. I’m happy to try to work around your schedule! If I happen to be booked, I hope you keep me in mind next time! I am unable to have pets in my apartment unfortunately because my cat does not like other animals. I am only able to care for pets inside your home or outside.

About: I have been a dog-lover as far back as I can remember. I can provide a loving home for your dog and ease the anxiety of being apart. I am trustworthy and dependable. Being a pet owner myself, I understand fully that our pets become valued members of our families and should be treated as such. I will make sure that your pet receives lots of love, adequate exercise, and playtime in addition to the essentials. I live in a nice neighborhood conducive to walks and I am also near several parks should we crave a change of scenery. I work part-time, but my schedule is flexible. Between myself and my daughter, our Rover guests are rarely left alone. I enjoy an active lifestyle and look forward to meeting you and your pet! Questions are welcome! Thank you for your consideration!

About: I have a dog of my own (pappion) and have had him since I was about 9 years old! He is the dearest thing to me and I love him with my whole heart! Which I will be sure to give your pet all the love and attention he/she deserves!! I also used to have a siemeze kitten who sadly died of cancer. But I loved her to the moon and back and continue to! I am currently still looking for a job so right now, I'm all yours! Willing to chat and come up with ideas! I'm very flexible and easy going! Sadly, I am not planning on bringing your pets to my house. Due to liability and things. But I will gladly come over to your house and do what you need done!

About: My genuine passion for animals and my lifelong dream about having my own dogs finally came true when I welcomed my own pups into my family. I have firsthand experience with the daily care, attention and patience that pets need to thrive. My genuine passion for animals and my lifelong dream about having my own dogs finally came true when I welcomed my own pups into my family. Beyond caring for my own dogs, I volunteer with a local animal shelter for a “Dogs Day Out” program where I take shelter dogs on outside to provide socialization, exercise and enrichment. These experiences alone have strengthened my understanding of dogs with many personalities and needs, allowing me to provide compassionate, attentive, and reliable care for every pet I get to meet. :) I work in the emergency department, so my schedule varies, but my partner and I live together so generally when I am not home he is there, and vice versa. When I’m not at work, I will spend all my time with your pet, taking them on walks, to dog parks, to get pup cups, etc, whatever you as the owner allow or prefer! I have a fenced in yard at my home, so dogs can be off leash to exercise, use the potty, and play time. During their stay in my home, they are welcome to be free roaming, not in crates, unless owners would prefer crates.

“Reese was absolutely AMAZING! I am very selective about who I trust to enter my home and care for my dog, but Reese immediately checked all the boxes and made me feel completely comfortable. She was reliable, attentive, and provided very detailed updates after every visit, along with plenty of pictures. Her communication gave me so much peace of mind while I was away and it was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog. I would 100% book with Reese again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Highland Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Highland Heights is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $33 per visit. 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 2,348 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Highland Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highland Heights. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
