“Erica was fantastic! We had a quick "meet and greet" a couple of days before the sit, which was a great way to get acquainted. On the day of the sit, she arrived on time, stayed for the appropriate duration, and took wonderful care of our dog. She even sent multiple pictures, which gave us peace of mind. I would definitely use Erica again and highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve had pets since I was a little girl and have passed the love I have for them down to my dog loving kiddos too! I currently don’t have any pets, so my time at home with my daughter is pretty free. We volunteer at APA, but would love a dog at home too! We make sure to have fun with them and give them lots of love. We also always make sure that they are on the best behavior and don’t miss out on being polite around furniture and such. Movement is a big factor that we love to encourage dogs to do even if it is a little walk!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I’ve pet sat for both large and small dog breeds, as well as cats, and I understand the unique needs of each pet. I’ve also had my own dog for over four years and I love taking him on daily walks or to the dog park to get his energy out. I’ve missed him so much since moving to school and I would love to give your pet that same attention! I’m currently a student at the University of Texas with a light class schedule so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I’m available all day most days to provide check-ins, walks, or for playtime! When caring for your pets at in their home, I focus on making them feel comfortable and keeping their routine consistent. Depending on your requests, I will follow your pets usual schedule- whether it’s a bathroom break or a longer stroll. During daily check-ins, I make sure they’re fed (if needed), have fresh water, and get some playtime. I always send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy while you’re away.

About: ccpetz247 on YouTube I travel frequently and provide petsitting services everywhere. I have petsitting references from the various states which include Texas, Nevada, Colorado, and California. I've always had pets mostly dogs and cats. I know the importance of pets getting their needed attention and daily exercise or they could tear up the house. I'm hoping to help pet owners while they are away. I work with autistic children as my other job. I have been in the childcare field for over 20 years and have had numerous background checks. Since I created this account all our family pets have crossed the rainbow bridge from old age and I miss being around the company of family pets. My schedule is pretty flexible. Feel free to send me any questions. I look forward to helping you with your pet. I love to travel and am pretty low maintenance so I can provide full attention for pets while their owners are away. Would love to care for your pets while you are away or just do a drop in visit if needed. I can only provide care in pet owners' home. I'm pretty low maintenance and responsible and will care for home and pets with great care.

About: I was born around Golden Retriever and my family currently has 2 Portuguese Water dogs, so I’m well prepared for the high energy pup and the frantic pups. I always take a patient perspective when it comes to the dogs and cats I care for. They are their own animals and understanding that allows them room to express themselves, so I can best care for them! I love animals and volunteer at various animal shelters to support my community. I dedicate full days each week for pet care. I make sure these days are free in case my clients need a more focused care. I work part time during the week, but am incredibly flexible which allows me to meet many pet care needs! I provide love, connection, food, water, walks, some cleaning of pet areas, etc. Whatever you would normally do for your pet I will oblige and assist you in that way

About: I host dogs for several neighbors and friends regularly. I have had several dogs over the years, but lost my older golden retriever 3 years ago. I work from home and spend most of my time in the kitchen and outdoor space. I like to go on walks and hike on neighborhood trails. I have a large fenced yard for playing. Pets sit with me and follow me around the house to my work desk or my kitchen when I cook. They are my snuggly family member while in my home, since my teens don’t want it :)

Nicole was fantastic with my dogs while I was away for a long weekend. She was right on time each day for all three visits and fed and stayed with the dogs exactly as I’d asked. My friend stopped by after one visit to grab something and she said the dogs were happy and didn’t even bark at her. I will definitely book again, thank you!

Myo (Seth) was so consistent and took such great care of are pets. So happy with the service and all the great updates he gave. Really worked out great and pets are safe and very happy. We will definitely use Seth again. My dog and cat responded really well to him right away. He came to my home on time everyday and consistently gave us a photo showing how each pet was doing. Put us ( my kids ) at ease so we could enjoy our vacation. Definitely recommend using him to care for your pets. He obviously loves caring for animals. .

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - The Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in The Hills on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,304 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across The Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a The Hills stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 The Hills 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in The Hills with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
