“Mikayla was awesome. She was very thoughtful, asked questions, and made sure I had some cute pictures of my fur babies. It was a short notice trip. Mikayla was prompt, spent quality time with my dogs, made sure they were comfortable and taken care of. I would recommend her to anyone. She took care of 4 different dogs while I was gone, without any problems”

“Our dog had another great visit with Jennie! She was a lifesaver - we had to suddenly go out of town and she was available same day to stop in and care for her. She always leaves a note on the app detailing what she did with our dog and attaches photos. She even washed her bowl for us. Highly recommend!”

About: I absolutely love animals and I have in fact owned both dogs and cats. During my free time I enjoy volunteering at animal sanctuaries. I look forward to hearing from you and eventually having the opportunity to love and care for your cute and cuddly friend. I have plenty of time to give your pup love and attention during their stay with me. My pups can use some new besties as well. I have an adorable 4 year old shihpoo, and also, a 3 year old miniature schnauzer puppy, to keep your furbaby company. During their stay, we will go for several walks, have additional playtime, and nap time as well. I have a very flexible schedule to make sure your pup can stick to their routine. As a dog mama of 2, I know how important furbabies are. I give pups lots of love and freedom to relax on the furniture. I also watch them as they run and play in the backyard to release their energy.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats alike since I was little. I have always enjoyed taking care of animals of all kinds! I kept reptiles and chinchillas growing up and also had quite a few geckos. I currently have my dog Nova and cat Ninja to take care of. I love them to pieces and that love alone has helped friends and family keep me in mind when it comes to going on fun walks, feeding, and sometimes with bathing! I was even given an award in high school voted as biggest Animal Lover. That was in 2015 and it hasn’t changed a bit! I run my own business so I’m very flexible with my time. I also have my own dog that I walk daily on a routine and with daily dog park time. We go on morning walks to the beach, she gets walked all the way to the dog park a block away and spends a lot of time outside. Pet care is and has always been apart of my daily routine! I love in an apartment and currently I am at max capacity for animals in my home, however, you can trust that your pets will be taken care of with the same love I give my own. I have worked with dogs of all ages and sizes. Whether we are going on a walk or taking them to the dog park I can handle your pets needs. I did go to school for wildlife rehabilitation and can administer most medications if need be. I am very patient and loving when it comes to all pets, so whether you have a grumpy ole pup or a shy one, I am more than happy to take my time making sure they are comfortable in my care. I have experience with most reptiles, including snakes, amphibians, geckos, and most lizards. I do not have a lot of experience with birds but I am always learning!

About: Hi, I'm Julia! If you are looking for a sitter who is actually *home* to provide consistent supervision and companionship, I’m your person. As a local mom and caregiver with a very flexible daily schedule, I can offer the dedicated attention and frequent potty breaks that every dog deserves. Our home is a calm, structured environment where your furry friend can relax, play, and get plenty of belly rubs. Because I manage a busy household and a specific routine for my own children, I am a total pro at following strict feeding schedules, exercise needs, and medication routines. I know how hard it is to leave a member of the family behind, so I prioritize clear communication and will send you plenty of photo updates so you can have total peace of mind. Whether your dog is a high-energy player or a professional napper, they will be treated with the same love and care as my own family!

About: Experienced, dependable, and trustworthy pet lover providing gentle, attentive care. Comfortable with puppies, seniors and shy pets.

In clients’ homes, I follow their rules, give lots of attention, and make sure pets always feel comfortable and secure.

“Sarah was a very good choice in having them check-in on our dogs. Being a first time user of the app, I was very nervous, but Sarah made sure to keep us up to date as to what was going on every step of the way. Sarah took our dogs out, fed them, cleaned up after them and even reported that one of the dogs broke something. I highly recommend this sitter!!!!!!”

About: A few months ago, we lost our boy to cancer. We aren’t ready for a new dog of our own, but love having furry visitors, so I’ve just got myself all set up on Rover. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom. I have time everyday anytime of the day if you need me. I also walk in the morning,afternoon and the evening behind my house I have a lake that’s has a path to walk and it’s 1 mile around the lake. I also have a dog park near by my house. I'm really great with communication. If you have any rules for your fur baby I will follow. I also have three really friendly dogs. I can easily crate your dog if needed (again if that okay with you).

“This May 17 the visit went off without a hitch. Madison is reliable and competent and my two guys are young active and weigh 80# each. My only issue is that Rover ( not Maddy) charged me for the cancelled previous April 12th that was properly cancelled 48 hours ahead. Rover please deal with that refund.”

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m here to give your pets safe, loving care when you can’t be there. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, boarding or daycare, I keep routines familiar, spaces safe, and tails happily wagging. Every visit gets patience, attention, and plenty of belly rubs, plus clear updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Happy pets and peace of mind for you—that’s my promise. Hashtag Pet Beds. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m already home in the mornings and evenings, so feeding, walks, and check-ins fit in smoothly. During the week, I plan visits around a consistent schedule, and on weekends I have more flexibility for longer stays or last-minute needs. I keep communication clear and send updates so owners stay in the loop. Safety, trust, and a clean, calm environment are my top priorities. I treat every pet like my own, keep spaces safe and tidy, and take time to learn each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid—everything from German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and Great Danes. I’ve administered medicine, handled special feeding routines, and taken care of elderly animals with extra needs. I’ve also pet-sat for family friends, neighbors, and multiple households over the years. I currently live with cats I care for full-time, and I’m happy to help with additional tasks like watering plants, taking out litter, or feeding fish. I’m great at following specific instructions and keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently between jobs and going back to school in the fall, which means I have full availability all summer long. My schedule is extremely flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet-sitting needs—whether that’s regular check-ins, overnights, or last-minute help. I live locally in Mulberry and often help out at my family’s pharmacy, but otherwise my time is yours! I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I always follow the pet’s routine to keep things consistent—mealtimes, walks, medications, and even preferred toys or napping spots. I’m respectful of the client’s space and clear about communication, sending regular updates and checking in if anything seems off. I make sure pets feel safe by being patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs—whether that’s quiet time for a nervous cat or extra play for an energetic pup. Trust is everything, and I take that seriously from day one.

“Ashley is very reliable and always shows up on time. She is wonderful with our goldendoodle who is always happy to see her. I would highly recommend her! This is a big help to us during the week, since e are away for 8 hours in the days. This helps in getting our dogs' energy out so that they will sleep well at night (and us too).”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hillcrest Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,357 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hillcrest Heights. 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 Hillcrest Heights. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
