“Anna is by far one of the best dog sitters. She sent a ton of photos as well as communicated throughout her entire stay. I appreciated her thoughtful questions and the care she gave to my fur baby. Would definitely book over and over again.”
“Sarah was amazing. She texted us tons of pictures and updates throughout, and stayed at our house with our pups and took excellent care of it. We would without a doubt recommend Sarah to anyone and Duke and Shiloh miss their new friend already!”

“Olivia has proven herself to be a reliable, dedicated, and generally awesome caretaker for our finicky dogs and cat while we were away, allowing us to enjoy our trip without worrying about a thing! We hope she is available the next time we have to head out of town, as she will be our go-to for any check-ins or pet sitting. We would recommend her without hesitation!”
“Emerson was an amazing sitter for our two girls. I got daily updates, came home to a clean home and didn’t worry one bit while we were away. We came home to two very happy doggos and will definitely book again. Thank you for taking such good care of our girls and making it so easy to enjoy our vacation. We appreciate you!”

“Kendra came to us on only a few day notice! She was amazing with our pups, sent us pictures and updates often and left our place cleaner than we left it along with treats for the ladies. Wish we would have found her sooner!”

I can tell she cares deeply about animals, and I’m grateful she was able to watch my girl while I was out of town. I will definitely keep her in mind for future pet sitting needs!”
“Connie was amazing! She was very thorough with our meet and greet. My animals also instantly loved her and felt comfortable with her which is especially rare for my dog. My dog usually needs to be coaxed to eat special food while I’m gone but she went straight for her dry kibble shortly after Connie got there. She’s a true animal lover :)”

Maliah-Mae is amazing! She sent us photos throughout her stay and walked are dog even though the weather didn't always cooperate. Our house was in great shape after we returned as well. I recommend if you have a need for house/petting sitting you should book Maliah-Mae. We will work with her again in the future.
We had a wonderful experience with Olivia! Before our trip, she was very flexible and willing to meet with us a few times to make sure she was a good fit for Rio and that everyone felt comfortable. She was also very proactive about communicating her work schedule and setting clear expectations for when she would be home with Rio. While we were away, Olivia kept us updated on how Rio was doing and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated! She also took great care of our home, and we came back to everything clean and tidy. Most importantly, it looked like Rio had a great time with her! Olivia exceeded our expectations, and we would absolutely love to have her stay with Rio again for our next trip.
Madeline stayed in my home with my cat, Juan, for 10 days, and she was amazing! Juan really bonded with her, and her communication was top-notch throughout my trip. When he stopped eating for a couple of days, she let me know immediately, spoke with the vet clinic, restarted some of his medications, and picked up different food options. Thanks to her attentiveness and interventions, she was able to get him eating again. I came home to a tidy house and clean bedding. I will definitely have Madeline care for Juan again!
Kevin was great! We had him house/pet sit for 5 days, and he took great care of our 3 dogs and our kitty. He sent us regular updates, made sure our dogs got regular walks each day, which gave us a lot of relief to relax during our vacation, and all our animals seemed to love him! We will definitely book with him again in the future and definitely recommend.
I can't say enough good things about Juli. She is so caring and accomodating. We do hotel stays in Minneapolis and it means a lot to have someone I can trust in a city that isn't home. She has a great demeanor for my nervous boy and awesome communication i love getting pics so I don't have to worry.
Emily walked our 2-year old dog Gracie for a week, when we were unable to do so due to a medical issue and out of town travel. Emily took over, walking Gracie twice a day. She was professional, punctual and perfect for our rescue dog. I would recommend Emily to anyone who needs quiet, firm attention for their dog. Thanks, Emily! Christopher, Ann and Gracie
This is the second time Abigail has dog sat for our two boys and I will happily book her again! She sent pics everyday and we totally trusted and appreciated her judgement to adjust outside time/walks based on the horrible heat and air quality. We know the dogs are in good hands with her!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hilltop
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hilltop on Rover is $55.5 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 3,492 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hilltop. 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 Hilltop 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 Hilltop 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 Hilltop 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
- 98% 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.
