“Olivia took perfect care of Olli!❤️ Maybe too perfect? I think Olli had second thoughts about coming back to his daddy!🤣 She also introduced us to a new park!❤️ Olli couldn’t be reached for a comment…he’s focused on his ball!🤣”
“Imani did a great job house-sitting and watching my cat, Penny! She provided updates everyday and was quick to respond to messages! She left the place spotless and Penny loved her! I would definitely recommend her and will be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“We couldn’t recommend Debbie enough!!!! She was (miraculously) available fairly last minute for our trip and from the word go, she was top notch! Our home and puppy Philomena were so well cared for while we were away. Debbie sent us plenty (but not too many) of snapshots and occasional videos of Phil living her best life while we were away. Thank you Debbie for being Phil’s new friend and we can’t wait to have you back again!. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, ‘no notes’ as the saying goes. 🥰.”
“Thor and Lilac absolutely adore Katjerine, which tells me everything I need to know. They’re always happy and comfortable with her, and I have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. She’s dependable, caring, and clearly a true dog person. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner since I was a child and have had my dogs Chewie and Murphy for the past 4 years. I work remotely so am able to be there to care for your pets all day and we have plenty of space for them to romp and play in a safe environment. Working full time but able to take time as needed to care for my furry friends. Weekends are open without work and able to play with and walk the dogs. Fully fenced half acre yard with grass and gardens to play on/in. Our dogs now like to “run the race track” around the house throughout the day.
“Abby is amazing! She took great care of my dogs - one huge and unsocialized, the other elderly. She is caring and responsible. She made me feel very comfortable that all was well while I was away. She also straightened up and left the light on for me the night of my return. I definitely recommend Abby and will hire her again!”
“Kylie did an awesome job staying with our pups while we were out of town for the weekend. Quick to respond and thorough communication, provided lots of photos and updates. She was fantastic with our almost 16 year old senior dog who wears a diaper and requires more care, and also played fetch in the backyard with our younger dog. She was tidy and left the house spotless. Would book again!”
“Our dogs had such a good time with Scott that they were actually sad to see him go when we returned from our trip! I am sure they will be elated next time they see him. Scott is easygoing, communicative, and has our full trust. We're so glad to have found Scott and know our pups are in good hands with him!”
“Julie kept us well informed about how Cooper was doing. He had nice long walks and play time in the yard with Julie. These are things we are unable to do with him so he loved it. Definitely would use Julie again.”
“Megan and Lee stayed with our pups for an extended timeframe and did a terrific job caring for them. One is a senior dog and the other a needy Velcro dog and we felt very comfortable with the care they provided. We would use them again. They also took care of miscellaneous house stuff that popped up while we were gone. Great communication.”
“Cheyenne kept my house clean, sent photos and updates. But most importantly she made friends with my high anxiety dog, so I know she special took time to make him feel comfortable.”
“Drew took wonderful care of my boys (2 cats) and house for 7 days. I received photos and feedback every day. I would definitely use Drew again for pet sitting and house sitting.”
“John took care of our babies while we were gone for a trip! This was the longest we’ve been away from them and our nerves were all over. He eased our anxiety by providing pics multiple times a day and giving us updates on them. We can’t recommend him enough!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about our in-home pet sitter Tonia! She stepped in on very short notice and immediately put our minds at ease. From the moment we connected, her professionalism and genuine love for animals were clear. She did an exceptional job caring for our two dogs, not just meeting their basic needs, but truly engaging with them. It was obvious they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. She kept us updated and sent lots of photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. Beyond caring for our pets, she treated our home with the utmost respect, treating it as if it were her own. Everything was spotless and exactly as we left it. We could not be happier with the experience and feel so grateful to have found her. We will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate care for their pets and home.”
“Teresa did a wonderful job of taking care of our dog for 11 days. I usually send my dog to a kennel, but she has picked up too many diseases from the kennel and was recovering from kennel cough. I was hesitant to use someone I barley knew. But, I’m so glad I hired Teresa! She took our dog on daily walks and sent the cutest pictures! She even went the extra mile cleaning her sheets. Our dog was happy and healthy when we got home. I’ll definitely use her again in the future and I would highly recommend her.”
“As usually, Emma was great with Delilah. We booked Emma a little last minute, and were so thankful she was able to stay with our pup for the weekend. Ample walks, constant attention, great communication and even great in the face of getting locked out of our house! We’d book Emma again in a heartbeat!”

Thor and Lilac absolutely adore Katjerine, which tells me everything I need to know. They’re always happy and comfortable with her, and I have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. She’s dependable, caring, and clearly a true dog person. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again. Highly recommend!
Zoe was fantastic! This was the first time we have used Rover and on short notice, we requested Zoe pet sit overnight for multiple nights. She was very responsive to messages/texts from the start, sent many pictures documenting our dog's daily activity and kept the house tidy. She was very thoughtful and sweet. We would definitely use her services again! Highly recommend!
Bethany was freaking incredible. I gave her so many instructions to follow for my pets routine, and she followed them to the tee. My dog fell in love with her. She was able to administer medicine to my cat AND put a harness on him… if you know anything about cats, you will know how hard that is to do…. Amazing. Thank you so much Bethany for making my first experience on rover a seamless process. I can’t wait to book you again!
Olivia was outstanding! She was everything her resume and past reviews said she was... and more! I have three dogs, 2 that are up in years and 1 that requires medication and monitoring daily. Olivia connected with them right away and she provided excellent care for all of them. She is dependable, reliable and professional,, all the things you look for when you are entrusting someone to care for the pets you love. I had a number of pet routines that she had she had to master to make my pups feel comfortable and she did great,,, she was the only change for them and they connected with her on the join up visit. I could not recommend her more highly.
Allie was amazing! Exactly what we were looking for in a house / pet sitter. So loving and caring with our two doodles, 15 and 3. So much attention to detail with the pups and the house in general. Communication was always great. Would definitely hire her again.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
