“I’m very pleased. Birdie was obviously indulged and fully pampered, eagerly greeted her daily visits and spoiled as much as I would have done myself if not more. One photo even showed Birdie rolled onto her back which is an ultimate sign of acceptance and comfort with your care. Thank you so much!”

“Kim helped us out when we were visiting South Dakota. She was fantastic - prompt, friendly, and she sent us detailed feedback about Kona on their walks. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits throughout my life. I currently have two cats and have experience with multi-pet households, including having five cats and a dog at one time. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for pet care. I have plenty of time to give your pets attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and care according to their normal routine. I’m available for daytime visits and overnight house sitting. I provide calm, attentive care in your pet’s home, following their normal routines and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I’m respectful of your home and understand the trust involved in caring for your pets while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you have peace of mind.

“We had our meet and greet for Gabbie to meet the kitties. Gabbie had the unexpected happen and had to reschedule but was professional through the whole thing. It was great meeting Gabbie! I gave her a lot of info and she took it all in! The kitties started to take to her too!”

Mindy saved us from a very difficult situation on super short notice, also on a holiday weekend! She was so kind, understanding, and flexible. Our Charlie Bear clearly had a great experience with Mindy as his caregiver, and a surprise bonus was that she socialized our big, yellow lab to a cute kitty cat! Who knew he would love cats? It's my honor to recommend Mindy. She is an awesome human!!

Melinda was WONDERFUL and a great communicator. I needed someone to walk Clemente while I visited sites in the area. She stopped by the campground and gave him a walk and some love to break up his day. She was very attentive and easy to work with. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using her service again when I am visiting the area!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hill City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hill City is $33 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $46 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 130 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hill City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hill City. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
