“We hired Tiffany to take care of our 3 cats once a day. And we could not be happier. She was so nice, followed all our care instructions and truly cared about our pets. She sent pictures, and updates everyday. And when we came home, the place was in perfect condition. We will def be hiring Tiffany again.”

About: I have been walking an awesome dog almost daily, he is a very energetic and adorable 8 year old Pitbull/Boxer/Rhodesian Ridgeback rescue mix named Chewy and I have loved every minute. He has taught me how important it is that dogs get their daily walks and experience adventure! Looking to help other pet owners give their dog a hopeful moment in their day by getting outside - rain or shine! I’m currently working part-time, and I am incredibly flexible. I have a very reliable, pet friendly, Subaru that can drive in any weather. I am the type of person that you can text me an hour before and I will be there! Always happy to help in a pinch. I respect all spaces and homes the same. I understand owning pets can be messy and I’m not afraid to step up and help calm the storm however I can. I do not mind showing up to a home to help care for a pet, happy to help in any way I can!

About: I’ve had experience with big dogs a majority of my life. My last dog was a Rottweiler. He had a very dominate personality so I was able to navigate his demeanor with myself, friends, and strangers while going for a walk. But, I have taken care of smaller animals as well. I work from home so the animal that I’d be taking care of will have as much attention as my work. I will be able to constantly give them attention as well and making sure that they’re okay. I will make sure that they’re walked long enough, have enough food and water, their litter box is thoroughly clean, and they aren’t doing anything they’re not supposed to be doing.

“Brenda and Francis went above and beyond! They understood my needs and those of my fur babies and soon became friends with two of them. I had warned Brenda the other cat had been feral and does not do well under stress and would most likely hide under the bed and not make an appearance. She made sure she left her cat food every day where she would find it and the boys would not eat it. She left her kitty treats every day for her to find. Of course, the boys needed no coaxing! She sent me pictures every day. I would book her again in an instant!”

“I can’t say enough about what a great job Kim did taking care of our 17 year old (fussy) Tortoiseshell cat Moto. We were away for a full week and Moto typically gets very stressed when we leave her. Kim was extremely caring and patient with Moto, giving her the right kind of attention and following our detailed care instructions to the tee. She was also very proactive about keeping the pet areas tidy and keeping us updated on Moto’s wellbeing throughout our trip. If you a looking for complete peace of mind while being away from your furry loved ones, don’t hesitate to book Kim!!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)

About: My partner and I have been dog sitting for over 7 years. We are incredibly enthusiastic, loving, and kind towards all animals. We love going on walks, and live in a very dog-friendly area. We hope you'll have your furry friend come stay with us! Kayla works full-time from home. Nothing is more fun for her than taking time to play with dogs throughout the day. It’s a stress reliever for her and fun for the both of us :) Vanessa is a former teacher and tutor, so her schedule is also fit for dog sitting! Attentiveness is the most important thing for us when with pets. In our home, we make sure that we can see the dog playing at all times. We put items away that are not dog-friendly and we recently purchased a house and set it up to have dog friendly rooms with space to play safely. On walks, the same applies. We are always attentive to the dog and how they feel, how they interact with other people and other dogs. Playing is fun, but we like to do it so that the dog and others are safe! I work full-time from home and my partner is only part-time and also from home. One of us is always home and available to be fully attentive to your dogs! I have a partially fenced backyard which allows for lots of room to play with supervision or on long leads. Our downstairs is set up to acclimate doggy zoomies and play time with couches, open space and easy bathroom access since it is a walkout basement.

About: Animals have always had my heart. I provide one on one care because I understand that being away from home can be stressful for some dogs. My goal is to make every boarding experience feel safe, loving, and as seamless as possible. With many years of experience caring for dogs, I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs and routine. I work from home and create my own schedule, giving me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and personalized care throughout the day. I live in a townhouse in a quiet, friendly gated community with plenty of safe sidewalks and green space for enjoyable walks. I love taking pups on walks and spending time outdoors whenever their owners approve. If your dog uses wee wee pads, I'm happy to accommodate that as well. And if they're used to sleeping in bed with you, they're welcome to cuddle up with me too! I only care for one family's dog(s) at a time, allowing me to give your pet my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. Every dog is treated like family: with patience, kindness, and lots of love. I'd love to meet you and your pup! Let's schedule a meet and greet to make sure it's the perfect fit and ensure your dog's stay is comfortable, happy, and stress-free. 💗 I make my own schedule and work from home. I have the time to care for your pet one on one and give them the attention they deserve. I love taking the animals for walks and getting them out in nature if permitted. I have a nice yard for them to sunbathe and get fresh air. If you require wee wee pads, I can accommodate that as well. Your Dog is welcome to sleep In the bed with me, if parents allow that. I treat all of my dogs like they’re my own and like they are family. 💓 Let's schedule a meet and greet and get your boarding process seamlessly started!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a passion for caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve had animals my entire life, so I understand just how much they mean to you, they’re family! At home, I have a sweet Pomeranian named Pebbles and two cats, Timon and Goose, who keep life fun and full of love. Caring for them has given me hands-on experience with different personalities, needs, and routines. When you trust me with your pet, you can feel confident knowing they’ll be treated like one of my own. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just extra cuddles, I’m here to provide reliable and loving care every step of the way. I am currently working part time but will be full time in September. I will be available weekday nights and all day on the weekends. Spacious living space that is comfortable for any cat or dog. The backyard is unfenced on one side; however, it is outlined with trees and other barriers.

“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and parrots all my life. I’ve had the responsibility of walking them, feeding them and playing with them. Now that I’m post-grad I have a cat of my own and am solely responsible for its care. Ive helped neighbors and friends with their animals when they go away on vacation. I am home for the summer with a part time job and this would fit in perfectly with my schedule. i am able to schedule around my other job. In my home we have a fenced in yard and our dogs are sometimes crated when we leave. When they are not crated have gates to set up safe spaces in the house where they can roam.

Amazing Meghan! She went above and beyond for our elderly cat. He has some issues and she took care of him and our property exceptionally well. Cleaned up after him and was prompt for stop ins. Lots of pictures, which eased our minds. I will definitely be requesting her again.

This is the first time I have left my boys in the care of someone other than family and I couldn’t be happier. Ashley was not only quick to respond (which is important to me) , but also left me with such peace of mind. She sent me pictures and went the extra step to make sure I felt comfortable. I highly recommend her.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Highland Lakes

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Highland Lakes on Rover is $8.56 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,526 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Highland Lakes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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

  • 94% 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

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