“Billie just watched my dog for two days and again I am blown away with her service. She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy active and attended to. Absolutely the best so happy to work with her.”
“Christina was amazing. Words can't express how lucky we were to find her a few days ago for a ridiculously last minute ask. She was responsive, asked questions when needed and followed the directions left for her. 1000% recommend. You won't be disappointed.”
“Absolutely amazing, such a sweetheart and very communicative, took amazing care of my baby boys and did it last minute for me which I appreciate so much. She is so amazing and genuinely cares for the pups. House was clean, pups were happy, and they were fed 🤍🤍”
“Ashley was amazing! She notified us and sent a picture of our pups soon after she arrived. She kept us updated by emails and photos throughout her stay. Because our return was tentative because of driving back from a wedding, she stopped by in the afternoon to let the pups out prior to our return. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”
About: I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I just love all animals. Dog walking is great for their physical and mental health/improves their joints, and all around good therapy for me and your pet. Play time is also important. I will treat your furry family member with the utmost care & diligence. I am responsible, attentive, & detail oriented and will provide quality services. Currently available during the day. Just about anyday with a little notice. Can set up regular scheduled walk times. Or if you are in a bind, and need, on spur of notice. I am willing to walk from your home, or to a near by park. Giving attention and time. I typically like to know if they have a specific diet, medications, preferences, etc.
“This is the first time that I used Rover to find a puppy sitter to stay at my home. I was very nervous about leaving my Yorkie puppy with someone other than family, but Briana did a tremendous job with her. She spent the entire weekend with Maya, and sent me updates each day which included photos of my girl. My biggest concern was that Maya wouldn't be able to sleep at night without her family there. Briana worked some kind of magic, because Maya slept all night long with her on the couch without crying. I highly recommend Briana for house sitting or puppy sitting, and she will definitely be the first person I reach out to when my family has to go out of town again.”
“We cannot recommend Ronny highly enough! When another sitter backed out at the last minute, we reached out to Ronny on short notice. He responded promptly and was more than willing to come by for a meet and greet, which immediately put us at ease. From the moment he walked in the door, our cats were comfortable with him which is not always the case. Ronny took his time answering all of our questions and asked thoughtful questions of his own. Even though we admittedly have a very detailed list of instructions, he did an amazing job remembering all the little things and checking in regularly with messages and photos throughout his stay. It was clear that Ronny genuinely cared about making sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. He was also incredibly respectful of our home, leaving everything exactly as we left it. He even went above and beyond by offering to clear our driveway after an unexpected snowfall. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile and treats your pets like their own, Ronny is absolutely the person to book!”
“What a great experience! My boys loved Kiah from the moment they met her. She takes care of humans too by letting me know how they were doing, and sending photos often. I will definitely be booking with Kiah again!”
“Haylee was amazing ! Provided excellent service kept me updated the whole time and always checked in with me and sent me pictures. I will most definitely be booking again with her.”

“Kylee did a fantastic job! She was very polite, professional, and dependable throughout the entire experience. It’s refreshing to work with a young lady who takes pride in what she does and provides such excellent service. I highly recommend Kylee to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our pets!”
About: **MAY 2026 UPDATE - TO ENSURE THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF CARE FOR MY VALUED CLIENTS AND ANIMAL COMPANIONS I AM ACCEPTING HOUSESITTING REQUESTS ONLY (<10 MILE RADIUS) UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE DUE TO LIMITED AVAILABILITY. WISHING A SAFE AND PLEASANT SUMMER TO ALL! THANK YOU.** Hi all! I am glad you have landed here. I have provided pet services (day stays, outings and overnights) for family, friends and colleagues since 2014. I have primarily cared for canines as well as a very small sprinkle of cats. On a personal note, I have independently raised a rescue pittie from puppyhood through 14 years (as shown in profile image). I find great pleasure and purpose in animal care/welfare work. I have engaged with dogs of various demographics, sensibilities and physical needs. Outside of my full-time career, I participate as a volunteer with a local shelter. This encompasses dog walking, dog handling, day trips and overnight care with ongoing training opportunities. I look forward to prospectively partnering together to fulfill the care requirements of your beloved animal companions. Thank you for considering. My schedule varies and can be flexible. Please contact me to discuss how I may assist with the animal care needs of your household pets. My offerings are performed at the client’s residence. We will discuss individual needs and determine a protocol that best serves your animal companion(s). An initial meet and greet is required. I maintain pet sitter insurance designed solely for pet caretakers. * Please be advised that a trip fee will be added for services outside of my service region and/or for multiple same day trips to/from the client’s residence. * Additional rates apply for more than one pet.
“Ashton was great with our two dogs! They warmed up to him almost immediately and he was very thoughtful in their care. He was very responsive and prudent with being on time and keeping them on a schedule. Also left the house exactly how he found it which was a huge relief being able to come home to a clean house! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Teagan was great as a house sitter and for watching my cat Moo. They were respectful, communicative, understanding, and took plenty of pictures so I could relax while I was on vacation knowing Moo was safe and happy. I especially appreciated the little gift I came home to. I recommend them highly!”
“Tabbz was amazing! She helped us out with a last minute booking so we could attend family birthdays out of state. She was wonderful with our girl Athena and her special needs and schedule! She went above and beyond for us! Knowing how worried we were leaving our girl, she sent photos and videos every day and made sure everything was good. Athena absolutely loves her and is currently sulking because her friend left lol We can't thank you enough and will definitely be booking with you again!”
“Patience was great with both of our pups. She recently stayed with our dogs for a trip out of town and I did not have any worries about their care with her. She is very responsive and answered us in a timely fashion. One of our dogs takes a little time to adjust to changes she was great with him as well our other dog who barely noticed we were gone. Cannot recommend her enough. Look forward to booking her more for our future trips.”
“Adam was an excellent dog sitter. Communication was great and he did a good job with our dogs. This is a bigger than usual deal for us. One of our dogs was a rescue who came from a bad situation and has some residual special considerations and weird quirks. We very much appreciated Adam's stellar care and attention to detail.”

Caris was fantastic! She arrived on time and cared for our two large breed dogs very well. One of our dogs is a senior and needs extra assistance getting around/ up & down the steps and she went above & beyond to make sure he was comfortable. She communicated very clearly & regularly with messages & photos. She left our home very clean and followed all instructions that she was given. I would highly recommend her! 👏 👏 👏
Denise did an amazing job watching our pups on short notice. She took great care of them and they were sad to see her leave. She also took great care of our home and left it even better than she found it! We would definitely recommend her and would use her again.
Zoey was great. It was my first time using Rover. She house sat my 3 big dogs and water turtles. She checked in when she got at the house and when she left. She gave updates every night. There is nothing more comforting than knowing your dogs are happy with someone watching them. Will book again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Highmount
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,137 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Highmount. 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 Highmount 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 Highmount 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 Highmount 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.

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.
