“Michael watched our doggie at our house while we were out of the country. She was calm and content when we got back. He clearly walked her and played with her as we requested. I felt very confident in his care and would use him again.”
“Cel was absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! If I could leave more than 5 stars she would have all of them! She was so responsive and so compassionate and was beyond considerate. The pups absolutely adored her and did so well while we were away! She followed the instructions to the letter and always made sure to reach out with questions! Celestina is 10000/10 going to be who we call ANYTIME we need someone to care for our pups 🥰💜 THANK YOU CEL!”

“As being the first time leaving our dogs with a sitter it went great! Shea really made us feel comfortable and did great with our dogs. Our dogs can't wait to spend another day with her as she gave them plenty of attention. She kept us updated daily and sent pictures of our dogs daily. We will be booking with her in the future forsure! Thank you again!”
“Rylie was a great dog sitter, would definitely book her again in the future! I had a lot of anxiety leaving my dog as I haven’t traveled without him in over a year and she took very good care of him while I was gone!”
“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!”

I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Tofu was happy and well cared for when I returned. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy and attentive, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.”
“Alicia was great about sending photos and being flexible for our needs. We came back to happy, healthy pups. We have already hired Alicia again, and we are considering another couple days out of town now that we have someone we can trust.”
“Our first Rover experience and I seriously cannot express how incredible Erika was! Our dog is very anxious and it was so clear through all her updates and photos that he loved her and trusted her.

We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Jaci was so great! She was so flexible and accommodating. She watched my two scaredy chihuahuas while I was visiting Vegas. She was so sweet with them and they liked her immediately! She went above and beyond to make everything smooth and she came early to pick up the dogs on short notice. She was also really knowledgeable about the vets in the area as my one dog has a medical issue. Highly recommend jaci! She is the best!”
“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.”
About: I've always had a special place in my heart for animals. I love spending time with them and caring for them, and I've always had cats or dogs in my life. I believe pets are one of the purest and most genuine forms of companionship, and they deserve the same love, attention, and loyalty they give to their humans. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away I’m currently working part time so I’ll be available most mornings and afternoons during the weekday and typically Monday and Wednesday night. But if I'm contacted for pet care soon enough i could potentially get days off requested. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my client's home or taking them for a walk, I prioritize safety, patience, and positive attention. I keep owners updated, follow all care instructions carefully, and treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I would give my own.
About: My name is Zoë and I have pet sit both cats and dogs in the past and am willing to learn how to care for other animals too. I prefer house sitting and enjoy getting to know the animals better. My past experiences include a shar-pei, two ragdoll cats, chihuahuas, and retrievers. I am willing to sit multiple animals and provide care and affection. I will take photos and send them if requested. Play time and brushing are enjoyable for me. I will also continue training if left instructions and will reward appropriately. For both your high maintenance and low maintenance pets will receive the care that they deserve. I am flexible when it comes to my schedule and believe the most important thing is the health and welfare of your pets. I have an open schedule at the moment ready to take care of any animal needs. Please let me know if you’re interested. Thank you! I do not board animals. I prefer housesitting with animals so they don’t become stressed in a new environment. It helps build trust between Me and the pet(s). I’ll clean litter boxes daily, walk dogs consistently. Brush animals as requested. Feed on a schedule.

Celestina takes such care and goes above and beyond while staying at our house. Not only would I recommend her to all I would continue booking her over and over again without thought or hesitation! Thank you for always taking such good care of our house and babies!!!
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! 🐾
Olivia was very communicative, I got picture of my babies every day and they had a good walk. I know they trusted her because they ate all their food, typically when we leave for vacation they don’t tend to eat much but they ate very well on each meal. Thank you for taking care of them.
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.
Julia was fantastic with Dude! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Julia was an absolute pleasure to work with for our recent booking. She was incredibly friendly and attentive from the very start. She kept me updated throughout the stay with wonderful photos and messages that really put my mind at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared for Dude and gave him plenty of love and attention. She did an amazing job watching my buddy — he came home happy, healthy, and well-exercised. I would absolutely recommend Julia to anyone and would book her again for Dude in a heartbeat. She’s a true professional and a dog lover through and through! Thank you, Julia! 🐶
Jade was an excellent dog sitter, and we had a great experience with her staying in our home over the weekend. She took wonderful care of our dogs and clearly treated them with a lot of love and attention. Her communication really stood out—she kept us updated regularly and thoroughly, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she truly listened to our concerns and took our instructions seriously. We had shared a past experience where a sitter left our dogs alone for far too long, and Jade went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable. She proactively let us know when she would be leaving the house and how long she’d be gone, which we really appreciated (and wasn’t something we even expected). It meant a lot to us that she respected our expectations and made the effort to build trust. We would absolutely recommend Jade to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative sitter, and we would happily book her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Higley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Higley on Rover is $44.06 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,011 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Higley. On Rover:
- 93% 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.
