About: I truly love animals and enjoy making them feel happy, safe, and loved. I have experience caring for puppies and understand the extra patience, attention, and care they need. I know pets are family, and I treat every pet with the same care and affection I would give my own. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles while keeping your pet comfortable in their routine. My goal is for you to feel at ease knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands! Caring for pets is a natural and joyful part of my everyday life. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether we’re going for a morning walk, playing with their favorite toys, or enjoying a quiet afternoon together, I love making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and building a routine around their individual needs. I’ll make time for walks, meals, playtime, and cuddles while keeping their usual schedule as consistent as possible. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re spending time with a trusted friend, not just being watched while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness and comfort are always a priority, and I’ll treat them with the same patience, affection, and care I would give my own. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always at the heart of how I care for them. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, maintain their familiar routines, and provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs. From keeping them securely leashed on walks to ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in their own home, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I would my own. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away, knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands.
“Anthony was great! Took good care of a Denver with lots of walks and trips to our dog park. Very easy to communicate with him , it was nice to know Denver was in good hands. He even sent pictures everyday of her!”
“Andi is a great pet sitter! She did a great job watching our GSP, Josh, who really liked her. I love how she sent us a few updates and photos every day and stayed in touch with us while we were away. She came to meet Josh before staying at our house with him and texted to confirm the appointment a day before which was great. Thank you, Andi!”
About: Hi, I'm Lantz! I am an animal lover and have taken care of many different pets over the years, ranging from dogs to cats, and even smaller animals like rabbits. I like to volunteer at the Human Society on my off time. From feeding to walking, even to bathing them(given the materials). and nurturing them with affection and care. I enjoy spending time with and taking care of animals and watching their growth. I am typically available more nearby to my home, but can easily make exceptions given the time. I am available every day during the week, and almost every weekend as well! If you need a relaxed and responsible dog walker or sitter (or for any other animals too) I'm the one to call! Thank you for your time! I am available most if not all days of the week including weekends to play with and sit your pet, and can work with you to fit you and your pets scheduling needs. I will take care of your pets with upmost care, and play with them as if they were my own. Our pets are like our family, and because of that we have to be sure that we can trust people coming around and taking care of them. I can assure you that as a pet owner myself, that there is nothing more cherished than our fluffy family members.
“Shereen was amazing!! She kept us updated throughout the day which gave us great comfort. The photos that she took of our fur babies were fantastic!! My husband and I highly recommend her as she allowed us to be able to relax while our 2 puppers were in her care. We will definitely rebook Shereen, she was great!!!”
“Blaize is fantastic and Dottie LOVED her!!! From the first time we met, we could tell she is genuine and reliable and just a really great person with a great sense of humor - which made the biggest difference with our goofy bull terrier. She is prompt, flexible, friendly, thoughtful, has excellent communication skills, quick to respond, sends tons of funny pics, was able to give meds, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or give a referral. We will absolutely be having her stay with Dottie (aka Spottie) again. #verythankfulwefoundblaize”
“Jason was so great with both dogs. One dog is so scared.. barks, nips. Jason was patient and caring, and soon they were buddies. Jason goes above and keeps house and yard clean. We’ll definitely call on Jason again.”
“Shawn took great care of my pets and house. The house was in excellent condition when we returned. Our animals were happy to see us but I could tell they were well taken care of while we were gone. Shawn would send us pictures of them while we were gone so we knew they were ok. I would definitely rebook him.”
“Hailee did a great job with our two dogs and cat while we were gone for almost a week. She responded to messages and kept me updated when I checked in. One of my neighbors met her outside with our dogs and said she could tell my babies loved Hailee which just makes my heart happy. When we returned, our house was just as I left it. Thank you for being there for us and our family on pretty short notice when our other sitter fell through. I think we ended up with exactly who we were supposed to.”
About: Pets have always been a part of my life and I adore them. I will take very good care of your pets as if they were my own. I am currently retired and am free during the day for walks and visits. I live in Pinellas County and can visit one time or several times depending on the need. I will be able to care for your pets in your home. I do have a dog and he does not get along with other dogs. I would be able to give your dog the attention he or she needs in your home.
“I had an emergency request because of a poor experience i had through Rover and he picked it up immediately. He was very kind and helpful. He kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout my trip! My dog Astro loved him and I plan on using him again for the future!”
About: I have had dogs in my home since the day I was born. My family owned, a Husky, Rottweilers, Boston terriers, and a Shitzu over the years. As an adult I have owned and cared for a Pitbull boxer mix for 8 years, cat sitted for a dear friend for over a year, and another friends small dog. Animals always warm up to me quickly and enjoy my attentive presence with them. I am currently not working, since I have an (older) dog at home it is important we get daily activity in! This usually includes a walk between 1-2 miles or an hour or so at the dog park. I have a fenced dog park at my apartment, along with 1 dog in the home. She is docile and very friendly, but not very playful. No stairs, and a lanai for the animals to lounge around.
“Skyy did an amazing job caring for my sometimes grouchy grandma dog, Coco. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos of their adventures. Skyy also took care to leave my home better than when she arrived. If you ever need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Skyy.”
“James did a great job with my dogs while house sitting! He was communicative, reliable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dogs are used to a lot of attention and company, and he made sure they were well cared for and comfortable. He also left my home clean and exactly as I left it, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend James to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I’d definitely book with him again. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups! 🐾”
About: I have pet sitting experience since childhood with neighbors and friends. I currently have 3 dogs of various ages and routines that fit each age group. Personally, I an active girl who loves to be outside and animals help me feel grounded. A friend to all critters and creatures of the world! I am moving to a new area and my first apartment. I have a full time job until 1530 m-f, so dog walking or playing with cats is a great way for me to stay active. I also have a journey to learn more about myself through bonding with animals At home I have 3 dogs (mutts) of different ages (16, 6, and 6 months) so each has a different diet, active and potty routine. Making sure my pets are not only physically safe, but find comfort and love when they are with me. For example, my middle dog struggles with anxiety from being a rescue, and our daily walks snd play time can rile him up so I’ve worked on ways we can connect and remind him of the safe space we are in.
“Wow, wow, wow! This was my first time using Rover, and in fact my first time trusting anyone other than family or friend to watch my dog while I was away. I simply can’t say or do enough to thank Sydney for her incredible job taking care of my dog and home while I was away. Sydney was incredible from start to finish. She was punctual, communicative, took phenomenal care of my sweet senior dog, and was simply the best. If you are looking for a sitter and are lucky enough that she is available - book her ASAP. I simply couldn’t have dreamed of anyone better. Thank you Sydney! You rock!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Highpoint
Michaela was absolutely amazing. Our house was immaculate when we got home. Our Three cats and dog were happy. We did not worry about them at all. She checked in with us as she said she woul and sent pictures everyday. anytime she went out to do something personal she let us know that she was leaving the house and when she got back could not have asked for a better pet sitter our four babies now I have a new auntie that will be sitting with them every time we leave. thank you again for giving us a piece of mind of having you here with them
First time using Rover for our pups and Paola was fantastic! We didn’t know exactly what to expect but she for sure exceeded expectations. Daily walks, continued check ins (on both dogs and with pics to us). Overall, 10/10 experience and would recommend her to anyway looking to leave there pups in good hands!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shannon did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs, Leo and Choco! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the entire experience stress-free. She was very communicative, sent us regular updates and photos, and followed all of our instructions carefully. She was incredibly patient with Leo, our Husky, who can be a little stubborn at times, and she handled everything with great care. We came home to two happy, relaxed dogs, and it was clear they were well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Shannon again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
Diane was amazing! We were in a bit of a jam because our former sitter quit after we had already purchased plane tickets. Diane found someone to watch her dog, so she could stay with our 3. She was here day and night, other than running errands. She sent pics and updates throughout the day and was very communicative. One of the dogs was having digestive issues, so Diane picked up chicken and rice at my request. She also made him some homemade bone broth because he wasn't drinking much water, and she didn't want him to get dehydrated. Our house was very clean when we returned. Diane went above and beyond for us and the pups, and we are so grateful! Highly recommend!!

The average cost of House Sitting in Highpoint is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $62 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Highpoint 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 Highpoint 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 Highpoint 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highpoint. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
