I currently have one cat and I’ve had him for over four years. I’m available Monday-fridays . I’m available weekends too with early scheduling :).

“Alex is so great! He plays with the kitties and send pics and they seem well taken care of and so does the house! I feel so much better knowing Alex is there for the little monsters!”
“Alyssa has been an amazing pet sitter for our high-energy dog. She has been great with our unpredictable schedule and has been an awesome communicator. We are very grateful we could find her on Rover!”
“First time having Nick care for our fur babies! Nick is a great young man who clearly loves animals. He was punctual for our meet and greet as well as drop in visit to care for our pups! Would highly recommend and will definitely be calling on him for future needs!”
“Meghan is great!! She helped us out last minute and took great care of our pets. She was communicative, thorough, and most importantly, kind to our pets, & we could enjoy our time away without worrying how they were doing. Highly recommend :)”
“Rachel did a wonderful job during her drop-in’s with my two dogs while we were away for 4 days! Her communication was excellent, and we enjoyed seeing photos of how happy our dogs were during her visits! One of our dogs can be very timid, but he came out of his shell by her second visit!”
About: Hi! I’m Makenna, an experienced pet care professional with a background in both dog grooming and pet resort care. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, providing walks, feeding, medication, enrichment, and plenty of love and attention. My grooming experience has also given me a strong understanding of canine behavior and handling. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a college student, but I complete most of my coursework from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. When school starts I will be sure to mark my availability. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With professional experience in both pet care and dog grooming, I’m confident caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure every pet receives the attention they need. I’ll stick to your pet’s routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and since meeting my husband in 2018, added two cats to the mix. I’m comfortable with all ages of pets and live in a central location in Richmond. About half of my week is working from home so I have some real flexibility to make drop in visits or take animals for walks. This is a new venture, but think it pairs nicely with my current routine and rhythms. I have a fenced in backyard, which is not very big however I live close to dog parks that are Pfingston as well. I also have Gates within my house to separate animals if needed.
“Heather was very responsive and communicative. She took great care of our cat, followed all our instructions and is the first pet-sitter he came out for. She was very respectful of our house. We would definitely rebook with Heather again!”
“Danyelle is AMAZING!!! Took such great care of my boys over a holiday. Gave me daily updates and even put up with some of their eating "quirks", which isn't always easy. But she was super patient with them and gave them all the love they needed while I was gone. I was so super happy and relaxed to know they were in such great and caring hands. Heck, even just the trek to my trash can for litter box cleaning was an extra effort in and it's self. Can't recommend Danyelle enough!”
“Kaycey did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs! It was a last minute booking and she responded quickly and was able to get to our house in a timely manner!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs as long as I can remember and have had a significant part in their care for about 10 years. The last 4 years I’ve been the primary caregiver for my pets. Since I was a teenager I’ve been the designated pet and house sitter for friends and family! I currently work full time but work from home two days per week. My mornings before work and evenings after work are dedicated to the pups. If necessary I am able to take a long lunch for some extra pup time. I have a fully fenced in yard where my friendly pups love to play and a puppy proofed home. Pets are welcome anywhere people are allowed, including furniture. My 2 dachshunds are super outgoing with other dogs and can keep up with big dogs! In a client’s home I will take into account any of the house rules of the pet parents.
“Victoria has been our regular petsitter while we work. Our Cavalier, Louie, loves her! She is great with our dog, and has excellent communication with me. Victoria is always flexible if changes in our weekly schedule occur. She always informs me if something comes up and we need to adjust the days she pet-sits Louie. Victoria has such a special way with animals. I highly recommend her.”
“Shannon came at requested times, sent pictures and noted how the cats were doing. Appreciated that she sat down and gave Houdini time to relax and come to her. Would use again.”
“Elijah is the best!! He gives us great updates on our three kitties and we trust him completely when we are out of town. We have great peace of mind when Elijah watches our boys and highly recommend him!!!”
“Tess is an absolute lifesaver! She is our go-to when my work schedule conflicts with my husband's travel schedule. She comes by the house midday to let our Scarlet out and give her plenty of playtime, snuggles and treats, and sends us pictures and updates once the visit is complete. Such wonderful peace of mind knowing that our Scarlet is in good hands. Thank you x a million, Tess!”

Ash took great care of Ellie for me! It is such a comfort to know I can have someone like her come to the house to take care of my fur baby so that she can stay in her environment when I travel for work. I would highly recommend having Ash care for your pet and would definitely book her again!
Meghan was fantastic ans so sweet with our dog, Balor. We have experienced loss in our household and our two older dogs passed away this year, leaving Balor sad and confused and nervous. Meghan was so compassionate and gentle and patient with him. She even sang to him!!!
Jazmine was phenomenal! She took great care of my kitties and home while I was away and sent me plenty of pictures as well! :) My home was just the way I left it (if not cleaner) and my cats seem happy! She was extremely helpful/responsive and I look forward to booking with Jazmine again in the future! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Highland Springs on Rover is $23.43 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,464 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Highland Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Highland Springs stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highland Springs. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
