“Nyssa was SO awesome for drop-ins for our 2 cats. She proactively asked questions to understand how to take care of our cats and our/their preferences. She truly went above and beyond in her drop-ins and sent loads of photos, which was great for us missing our fur babies while away. She was respectful of our house and left it in great condition. Would book her again without hesitation!”

“Sydney did such a great job pet sitting my fur baby Muffy. She was prompt, kind, and respectful. I appreciated the attention to detail she gave on her check in visits.”

“Hannah is awesome! She did great with my kitty, and she sent photos and updates every day. She’s very friendly and great with cats. Also, she followed all directions as explained and left my place spotless. Will definitely be booking Hannah again!”

“Lori is very friendly and professional! This was my first time using the pet sitter. My cat, Lily, I was very happy and relaxed when I came home. I will definitely book with Lori the next time I am away!”

About: As a fourth-year medical student aspiring to work in the Emergency Department, I have been trained in treating minor-to-major wounds and recognizing emergencies in patients such as heatstroke and poisonings. Though I find genuine fulfillment in caring for human beings, I have always loved caring for animals beginning with my two cats as a 10-year-old as well as visiting my cousins' German shepherd and golden retriever. I now care for two new female cats who are 2 and 4 years old. I have only experienced dog care in short stints, bathing and walking my friends' dogs if they went out of town. Though I would love to get more hands-on experience caring for dogs. Currently, I am in my fourth and final year of medical school which I have realized has actually provided a decent amount of free time compared to the prior 3 years. For this reason, I wanted to pick up caring for pets around the neighborhood on a part-time basis. I would likely be able to care for dogs and cats around 3-4 times per week with either frequent check-ins or overnight stays. I think preparation will be my best friend as I know pets have their own personalities, body language, and habits. Unfortunately, I do not think I'll be able to care for pets in my home as I am not sure how my cats act around dogs. However, if entering owners' homes I will strive to follow any rules and keep your pet happy!
“It was lovely to have Aries and Inwoo as sitters for Sunny while we were away for 2 weeks. They were very patient with Sunny, took the time to give her treats and replace her food/water bowls, and gave Sunny lots of playtime. We noticed that Sunny naturally warmed up to both very quickly and eagerly awaited every day for the drop-in visits. The best part was they clicked many cute pics and videos of our baby while we were away. That, undoubtedly, helped us be assured that Sunny is well taken care of. We appreciated the thorough professional communication and they kindly watered our home plants :) We were delighted to have Aries and Inwoo as sitters and would love to have them cat-sit Sunny again in the future.”

“Olivia is the best! she genuinely cares about animals and was so patient with all my cat’s needs. she is really communicative and wonderful to work with. I came back to a clean and tidy house, which I very much appreciate! my cat also loved her and they got along so well. I 100% recommend her services and look forward to booking with her again! <3”

“Ann took great care of my Nico. I was really glad to know that she was checking on him and making sure he was fed and kept company. I enjoyed seeing pictures during my trip. Thanks Ann!”


“Kenya was so great with our two cats!! Punctual, communicative, and with attention to detail. She even took the time to play with them which put our minds at ease about leaving them alone for the long weekend. We will definitely be booking her for future trips!!!”

“Emily is such an amazing pet sitter. I had not needed to use her services for several months so when I reached out to book, she took the initiative to ask if anything had changed since she last checked on my cat, which I really appreciated. She also always sends the cutest photos.”

About: Hey There! My name is Damian! I’m a 23 year old dog loving guy who is always excited to meet new and recurring dogs. I can handle almost any size dog with my experience of growing up with 20 chihuahuas and owning massive boxer’s and dogo aregentino’s. I love walking because it allows me to exercise with a companion who needs and enjoys the walk as much as I do. I have volunteered at the Human Society in Honolulu, Hawai’i, and have been an affiliate of multiple veterinarian clinics who’s clients are seeking a dog sitter. I love dogs with my whole being and the ability to meet and take care of these babies while getting paid doesn’t even sound like work. Hopefully you hire me, but if not, atleast you know about me. Thank you! I’m an actor with lots of free time. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to be with your pups! I have auditions about once a week and I bartend on the weekend but that’s about it. I try and provide them with the essentials if not already given to me. That varies from client to client. I make sure the dog is given enough attention but also enough space since I know they’re probably missing their owner.
“Natalie was the best cat sitter I could possibly dream of! I had a last minute trip for a month and she was so responsive and helpful, immediately, even on incredibly short notice. She took incredible care of my cats, went above and beyond to accommodate my shifting travel plans, left my home even cleaner than when I left, and sent me lovely photos and updates every day. She was so kind, so helpful, so communicative, and took impeccable care of my babies. I could not recommend her more, and will be rebooking with her anytime I go out of town in the future, and recommending her to all the pet parents I know. If I could give more than five stars I absolutely would. Thank you again Natalie!!”


About: I grew up around animals, caring for a pet is second nature to me. I”m experienced with large high energy dogs as well as slower paced seniors and small breeds.I am very patient, loving and responsible. Comfort and safety are my top priorities. Im free evenings and weekends and this is the perfect way to make a little extra in my free time. I would love to meet and work with different breeds :) Strictly follow feeding schedule and diet restrictions, pay attention to details provided either written or verbal. Report that everything went smoothly and indicate any mishaps. Respectful of your home making sure to leave everything as it was :)
“Sara took excellent care of our pair of foster cats and their space! They love her. We appreciate her communication, and the wonderful photos of them while we were away. Thank you Sara!!”

“Kelsey was a caring, responsive, and capable sitter! Our cat is a tad old but Kelsey was great with giving him meds and all the love he needed (or demanded lol). She made our time away worry-free. Absolutely recommend her services!”

Lindsey took such amazing care of Ginger, he was so comfortable around her and I knew he was in good hands! She took care of his food, water and litter and other requests for Ginger, she’s the best! She sent me the most adorable photos while I was traveling and missing my baby. She’s so sweet and considerate and genuinely loving with pets. Highly recommend✨❤️❤️

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Highland Park on Rover is $26.64 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 9,394 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Highland Park. 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 Park. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
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.
