“Lindsay did a great job watching our dogs! They were friendly and easy to communicate with. They followed instructions well and adapted to a pup that was very shy and stand off-ish.”
“Wonderful timely and dependable! We had a bad experience with a sitter previously but Megan restored our trust in using pet sitters! Brody was very happy to have her company. Thank you Megan for giving me peace of mind while I was on a work trip 🙏”
“Erin was great. She was sending us daily updates about our dog. She stayed at our home with our dog and was very respectful of our property. Thank you Erin for everything.”
“Sydney was an awesome house sitter/petsitter. She spoiled all three animals and sent us timely updates and pictures. The house was left tidy. We will definitely be booking her for future sits!”
“Jordyn did an amazing job petsitting my 4yo husky and 2 cats. I always worry with new pet-sitters that my dog is going to be too much - too hyper, too overwhelming, too vocal, and that she'll intimidate a new person with her husky antics and shenanigans, but Jordyn handled her like a pro. My dog loved the special attention she got from her new friend and the cats were clearly well taken care of. Jordyn was clean and tidy and respectful and the house looked great when we got home. We'll definitely try to book Jordyn again for future trips and I'd recommend her to anyone who asks!”
“Absolute joy. My fur babies are well taken care of, and happy. Aislynn keeps in contact with us and sends photos. She spends time doing tedious things my cat needs done almost daily and it is so appreciated. Highly recommend Aislynn.”
“Johnna was a great dog/house sitter! She was able to watch my dog, Rocco, on very short notice and still came to meet with both of us before watching him. She sent me frequent pictures of Rocco and other updates while watching him and left my home as clean as when I left! I will be booking again :)”
“Chariti was amazing. She gave us such peace of mind while on a day trip where we couldn’t bring our dog. She communicated clearly, provided plenty of pictures to show us how much fun they were having and left things just even cleaner than when we left. We will definitely try to book with Chariti again for our future needs with dog sitting/care!”
About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I grew up in Mexico with animals around me for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, and turtles. My brother even had snakes and spiders! Animals have always been part of our family, and I believe caring for them starts with both love and respect. I’m a cat person at heart. Connecting with a cat feels special to me, whether we click right away or need a little time to get to know each other. I’ve also lived with dogs my whole life, and I love their company. A walk through a beautiful park always helps me relax, and it’s even better with a dog by my side. I’m a graphic designer, so I spend a lot of time on my laptop. Outside of work, I enjoy watching movies, exploring parks, hiking, and practicing yoga. I also love visiting museums and galleries whenever I get the chance. I’m new to Rover, and I’d love to meet you and your pets! I’m punctual, tidy, and happy to follow the routines that help them feel at home. Pets are family, and I know how much it means to have someone you can count on looking after them. My days usually include a mix of design work on my computer and getting outside for a walk. Pet care fits nicely into that rhythm, and I enjoy having animals around while i'm working. Before we book, let’s talk about your pet’s usual day—when they eat, when they go out, and how much company they need. I’ll let you know what my schedule looks like so we can make sure it works for everyone. I’ll follow your instructions, keep their food and water areas clean, stay on top of litter boxes, and be careful with doors, gates, and leashes. I’m tidy myself, so I’ll treat your home with care. I’m most comfortable with friendly pets, but they don’t have to love me right away! I’m happy to give them space and let them come to me. I’ll send photos and little updates while you’re away, and reach out if anything seems off.

I don't do pet care in my own home I am sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you understand. Have a blessed day.
“Our first time leveraging Karen’s services. Her previous reviews intrigued me and she did not disappoint. Karen was an excellent communicator from the outset and through our time together. She is proactive, thoughtful and very warm. To both the two leggeds and four leggeds! She sent regular and thorough updates and pictures and videos of playtime and koi feeding. We remarked many times how fortunate we felt to have our sweet pups, koi, and our home and property in her good hands. When we returned, everything was very tidy and everyone and everything was calm. Just how we like it! Karen is a perfect sitter and an amazing person. So glad we got to meet her!”
About: I’ve had experience with dogs for over 5 years now, including those reaching the end of their life span and with specialized health needs. I’m currently a full time student, but have full availability Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and will be open after 1pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays! I can easily crate and walk dogs as needed, and play to fulfill any health/social needs! I’m also good with keeping distance if that required.
“Erica watched our two “Velcro” Frenchies for several days and is fantastic! She communicated with us to let us know how things were going daily and was very respectful while staying in our home. I would definitely recommend her to babysit your pet!”
About: Hi! My name is Bailey! I’m currently a small animal veterinary assistant while also in school to get my CVT.I work with all of animals, and I personally own my own dog, cat, horse and more. I can work with any type of animal. I work Tuesday through Saturday, I have an hour lunch in between the day, which I go and do potty break during that time. Then with them off, I go straight to your house and take care of your pet. I take care of someone’s pet like they’re my own. As a vet tech, I treat every single animal like they are my own and my family.
“I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about Marie!! We’ve used multiple sitters on Rover before, and she is in a league of her own. She went so far above and beyond—sending tons of photos and videos, keeping our home spotless, and even helping set up a water fountain and troubleshoot our cats’ picky eating habits. It’s clear she genuinely cares. Most importantly, she loved our cats like they were her own, and that meant everything to us. She was truly an angel and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had her. We will absolutely be using her again—she deserves every bit of recognition! Thank you so much Marie!!”
“Amazingly professional and dedicated sitter. Knowing that she was taking care of our animals and our house really put us at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation without worrying about our animals at all. Her dog Theo is very sweet and got along great with both my dog and cat. Jessie took my dog to a different park or part of the river every day I was gone. Very professional and dedicated she took her job very seriously and went above and beyond. Highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,217 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Highland. 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 North Highland 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 North Highland 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 North Highland 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
