“This was our second time using shanley and she is so Amazing. Extremely communicative and truley loves our critters which makes us feel at ease when going on trips. Will defineilty use her services again”
“Mari was awesome! We needed someone to stay late with our two puppies, and she was extremely flexible with our schedule, staying with them the entire night. Our dogs loved her and we appreciated having someone care for them like she did. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“This was the first time my husband and I have left our fur babies with anyone but a family member or friend, and we are so pleased with our experience! Alanna was kind and professional from the very start. She alleviated any concerns and answered any questions we had for her. She not only came over once prior to our booking, but twice, to ensure the dogs remembered her and were comfortable. Aside from the care she took on our animals, she respected our home while she stayed there with them! It was as clean, or cleaner, than how we left it and we got daily updates and pics and more if requested. We look forward to booking Alanna again for any future dog sitting!”
“Shea is awesome! Our kitties love her and she is great. She sent us so many photos and updates while we were gone and left our place clean and tidy. We will be booking her again for sure!”
About: Hi! Life long animal lover. I’m a former private chef turned house sitter and currently a dog trainer student. With my children grown and a life of ease, house and pet sitting gives me exactly what I love most — purposeful connection, beautiful animals, and the privilege of caring for someone’s most important things while they’re away. I care for cats and dogs full time which allows me to be very flexible when it comes to your sitting needs. With a lifetime of experience caring for others, a professional standard built from years in hospitality and culinary arts, and a genuine love for animals that goes beyond a side hustle. As an empty nester my energy is calm, clean, and completely focused on whoever — and whatever — is in my care. No small children, no chaotic schedules, no distractions are part of my daily lifestyle. When your pets are with me they have my full attention, my full presence, and the kind of unhurried care that only comes from someone who actually wants to be there. What you can expect from me: — A hospitality-trained professional who treats your home with the same respect she’d want for her own — Consistent communication — updates, photos, and check-ins so you can actually enjoy your time away — A calm, experienced presence for animals of all temperaments — I understand animal behavior, I read energy well, and I don’t rattle easily--I'll be learning delving more into professional certified dog training and animal behaviorist soon. Did I mention that, "I love this lifestyle?" I do. — Someone who genuinely loves this — not as a gig, but as a natural extension of who I am. I pet sit full time. Therefore I'm free to travel and pet sit any hour or day. Last minute sits are welcomed. Reach out anytime. I am reliable, discreet, warm, and deeply committed to the trust you place in me when you hand over your keys. Your home and your animals will be in good hands. That’s not a promise I make lightly.
“I was ready to give up on Rover after many failed attempts to secure a sitter but am so glad I found Grace! She was very friendly and communicative. Immediately upon meeting I could tell my dog and home would be in good hands. I am confident my boy got plenty of love from Grace while I was gone and I will definitely be having her return!”
“We were really happy with Christina! She took great care of our little Zoey and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was easy, and we could tell she was comfortable and well looked after.”
“Tamantha, did a great job with house-sitting my dogs. The dogs were happy for us to be home and didn't pick up any behaviors while we were gone. No issues, no drama. I would totally hire Tamantha again.”
“Ryley did an amazing job caring for our boys! She kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. Our boys were happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention. We highly recommend Ryley and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“I need some extra stars! :-) I was forced to scramble to seek help when my previously engaged dog sitter flaked just days before I was due to leave on a week-long vacation, so, between the stress of needing a last-minute replacement and having never left my high maintenance purse pooch or my home in the care of a "stranger" before, I had some serious anxiety. I'm thrilled to report that my fears were alleviated, and I'm SO grateful to have connected with Michael! My generally shy beastie ran right up to him when he arrived for our meet and greet, and she seemed completely at ease with him from the start. Michael was very sweet and calm, communicative, prompt, reliable, attentive to details and very accommodating of Noel's particular needs. We loved the daily photos and updates, and he took great care of the house as well. 2 thumbs and 2 paws up for a fantastic experience! His great reviews are well deserved, and I highly recommend and will definitely call on Michael again for future pup-sitting occasions! Thank you, Michael!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! While we were away in London, she took such wonderful care of our dog and gave us complete peace of mind. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and treated our dog like one of her own. Communication was outstanding throughout our trip. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which made being so far away much less stressful. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pup’s happiness and well-being, and she always went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we are so grateful for the love and attention she provided. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy to care for their pets. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Roberta was amazing! My pup was walked every day and I was sent multiple pics of each walk. Roberta was also house sitting for me and the house was immaculate when I got back. I couldn’t even tell she was here. Will hire her in the future for sure.”
“Tarah is very personable and we were able to meet with her a couple times before she stayed with our dogs so they had a chance to get used to her. She kept in communication with us while we were gone with updates and pictures of our pups. Very happy with her service and would recommend her.”
About: Hi there! My name is Laura, I’ve worked at several beautiful veterinary clinic as a veterinary technician, have years of experience caring for animals, and would be more than happy to help you out by watching your fur babies while you are away! I also know how to handle exotic animals as well (birds, reptiles, pocket pets, etc.) There is nothing more important to me than making sure every animal in my care gets the best treatment possible. I know how stressed pets can get when their owners are away, so you can rest easy knowing that I will ensure all of the animals I look after are as comfortable as they can be. My love for animals is unconditional, and I will definitely treat every pet as if it were my own with love, patience and endless belly rubs! I have a flexible schedule, as I’m now fully remote, that I’m more than happy to work around to give my clients and their babies the best care and attention they deserve. :) I worked as a vet tech for over 8 years, and am skilled at reading body language to ensure every pet is comfortable and happy in my care!
“Emily was fantastic! She was great with my very energetic pup, was extremely respectful of my home, and was wonderful communicative about how my pup was doing and sending photos of him getting snuggled and going for walks. Because of these qualities I was able to enjoy my time away from home with confidence that my boy was being thoughtfully cared for. Thanks, Emily!”
About: I have extensive, hands-on pet care experience from raising and training my own dog, Crash Bandicoot, completely on my own since he was just an eight-week-old puppy. This rewarding journey taught me the deep patience, consistent scheduling, and positive reinforcement techniques required to keep pets happy, well-behaved, and completely safe in their own homes. I have a highly adaptable and flexible schedule because I am currently managing my own hours while putting myself through flight school. Since my training allows me to easily structure my own study blocks and training sessions, I have excellent availability to accommodate last-minute requests, provide prompt same-day drop-ins, or stay overnight to ensure your pets have dedicated, attentive care exactly when they need it. I provide dedicated, attentive pet care exclusively inside my clients' homes to ensure their animals remain comfortable, safe, and stress-free in their own familiar environment. During overnight stays and house sitting, I strictly maintain your pet's established feeding, medication, and bathroom routines while keeping your home perfectly clean and secure. For same-day drop-in visits, I focus on delivering high-energy exercise, fresh water refills, thorough litterbox or yard cleanups, and plenty of focused love and companionship.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Higley is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Higley
I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Haley on Rover. Over the years, many people have cared for my pet family, but Haley stands out far above anyone I’ve worked with. During the meet and greet, she took the time to genuinely listen and personally connect with each one of my six pets. She didn’t just follow my instructions for feeding, walking, and litter box care—she went above and beyond. Haley spent real, quality time with them, sent frequent photos, cleaned their bowls, and made sure the cat box area was spotless. I could tell how comfortable my pets were just by looking at the photos, and I was amazed by how quickly they responded to her. All of my pets come from difficult backgrounds and are cautious with new people, but Haley put them completely at ease. I recommend her without hesitation!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Celestina! She has been taking care of my boys for the past year, and I trust her completely with them. One of my dogs, Shadow, is very fearful of people and doesn’t trust or warm up to people easily, so the fact that he is comfortable with her says everything about how patient, gentle, and caring she is with animals. She stays at my home with them overnight and truly treats them like they’re her own. She sends me updates throughout the day, so I always know how they’re doing, and I never have to worry about them while I’m away. Finding someone I can trust not only in my home, but with two dogs who mean the world to me—especially one who requires a little extra patience—is priceless. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitter! ❤️🐾
We have had Kaleigh watch our two German shepards several times now and she has been wonderful every time! She sends lots of proof of life pictures and follows house/pet directions really well. She is really sweet and communicates well. She has even recommended a friend who watched our dogs when she wasn’t available. We are so glad to have found Kaleigh for our pups!
Michael was wonderful to work with, from our initial meet-and-greet through departure. Luca appeared well-cared for and very calm when we returned home. Since we don't have a backyard, Michael made sure to walk Luca at appropriate times to stay out of the heat and successfully gave Luca his medicine and treats. Our house was clean and in good order when we returned home, which is so important to us! We'd definitely hire Michael again.
Berkley is an amazing dog sitter! She took incredible care of our pups and sent me constant pics and videos so I never had to wonder how they were doing. She was super patient with our highly anxious dog and even got him to trust her enough to walk him. She also left our house spotless. I would definitely use her again!
Audrey was fantastic with Dude! She did day sits for us on June 3rd and 4th, plus an overnight stay on June 6th. From start to finish, she provided excellent communication with regular updates and adorable photos, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She’s not only great at playing with Dude and keeping him happy, but she’s also really thoughtful — always mindful of the heat and making sure he was comfortable and safe. Audrey created such a caring, worry-free environment for both Dude and me. I never had a single concern. I would happily book with Audrey again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter. Thank you so much, Audrey! 🐾
Lasey did a great job watching our dogs while we were out of town. One of our dogs is a very nervous rescue and usually takes a long time to warm up to people, but she made him feel comfortable and safe surprisingly quickly. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing they were well cared for while we were away. We’d definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a patient, reliable dog sitter.
Shanley took such wonderful care of my little Bodhi while we were away. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and truly treated him with so much love and care. I especially appreciated all the photo updates she sent, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me smile. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I’m so grateful for her and would absolutely trust her with Bodhi again. ❤️
We are a repeat client and have had Ambre care for our pets and house several times. I have a rescue dog that is high anxiety and reactive and she likes Ambre, but more importantly Ambre understands her needs and personality. I also have 2 parrots (macaw and white bellied caique) that Ambre handles with understanding. She always leaves the house clean, lights on, and her towels all washed! I really appreciate her, her care for the animals, and that she always makes it easy to come home to a clean home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Higley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Higley on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,074 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Higley. 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 Higley 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 Higley 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 Higley 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
