“We had an good experience with our Rover sitter. She was professional, reliable, and fairly attentive to our dog’s needs throughout the long stay. Dog was walked regularly everyday and was given food as per our instructions. Initially our communication was a bit spotty — however, when inquired about our dog; we received Rover updates, photos, and check-ins, that gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog stayed at our home happy, relaxed, and didn't have to be boarded elsewhere. We appreciated the care provided and would recommend Brittany.”
“Eliora was amazing! She kept us updated with our limited communication being on a cruise ship, went above and beyond with the care of our fur babies! I highly recommend if you need someone to watch after your pets. Thank you so much for everything! Happy Holidays!”
“Loved Nikki! She watched our pups over the weekend, walked them, fed them, played with them and communicated frequently with pics! Nikki is such a sweet and caring dog sitter and very trustworthy! We will definitely rebook with her! Thx so much Nikki!”
“Hannah was able to eliminate most of the separation anxiety experienced by both my constant companion Luna and me. The videos and pics of her running at the dog park and doing "buttski" were priceless and made me smile and realize that she was in capable and competent hands. The phone communications and all the images and reassurance made the time away from my Luna manageable. Hannah has a sensitivity with animals that goes beyond "pet-sitting". I would highly recommend her. She is trustworthy and responsible with your home and your pet.”
“Maria provided updates and pictures of our dog while in her care. She and her family took our dog in like he was one of the family. Since our dog was a pound dog and quite reserved, I felt like Maria and her family took extra time with our dog to make the adjustment quicker. Many thanks, Maria!”

I will play with your dog and take them for walks during the day and one at night . I will feed your pets on what ever schedule you like.I will also cuddle and love your pet like it was my own !
“Alina was amazing! She was so communicative sent lots of pictures and took great care of our two dogs in our one cat. The house was spotless on our return and the animals were very loved and cared for. We hope to use Alina again in the future.”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Christi was absolutely amazing, giving the best updates and perfectly managing every detail. She created ease for us in ways that went above and beyond pet care, but we also felt confident that our fur baby was treated like a princess. We are so grateful for her level of care and highly recommend!”
“India is truly the most amazing dog sitter we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with! Her attention and care is readily apparent in how she takes care of your pups like they are her own.”
“Jennifer was such a wonderful caregiver for our babies, giving them so much love, attention, playtime, and just making sure all their needs were taken care of. She was so good about keeping us informed about everything and sending pics of our pups! I HIGHLY recommend her and will definitely request her for any future care!!”
“I fear my two were not as excited when I got home because Shalisha did such an amazing job taking care of them while I was away! She did such a wonderful job caring for my two angels, I didn’t worry once while I was away because her communication was so amazing and my two dogs were so comfortable with her immediately. Would definitely recommend Shalisha to care for your babies for the best care!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 8 years and currently have two of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, attention, and lots of love while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and affection I give my own! I currently have clinicals during the week, but I’m typically available after 5 PM. I have more flexibility on weekends and love spending my free time caring for, walking, and giving pups plenty of attention and love. I care for every dog with the same love and attention I give my own. I have two crate-trained dogs, and I’m happy to keep them separate if that makes your pup more comfortable. I can also crate your dog if that’s part of their normal routine and you prefer it.
“Christina was able to help me on very short notice and stayed at my home for an entire week. From the moment she arrived, I felt completely at ease knowing my animals and home were in such capable hands. She was excellent about sending photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I returned home, the house was spotless, and all of my animals were happy, healthy, and well cared for. One of the biggest challenges for me is finding someone who is experienced with a variety of animals—not just cats and dogs, but also goats, chickens, guinea fowl, and geese. Christina handled all of them with confidence and care. She is incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I am beyond happy with her services and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets and home as if they were her own, Christina is the one! ❤️🐾🐐🐓🪿”
“Lauren sent great photos and updates throughout the day. She took extra care and was so intentional with our pup, Scout. We will definitely be happy to have her back to care for him!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for a long time. Since I was a young child. I am a dog lover, as my family has 3 dogs of our own, they are beagles. I enjoy spending time with dogs - petting them, walking them, and playing with them. I was formerly in law enforcement so you can count on me for safety. We have a fenced back yard. Our dogs love having friends over and our kids love dogs as well. There is almost always someone home to care for our dogs. I love to spend time with my family and with our dog. We also enjoy meeting other dogs, and making connections with the pet parents, also. For the safety of my children and pets, all first-time clients must complete a Meet & Greet at least 48 hours before a stay can be confirmed. I do not accept last-minute bookings without a prior visit. I have a large back yard that's fully fenced in. The fenced in back yard is around half an acre. We also have 3 dogs of our own, that we love and care for. I am a former law enforcement officer.
“We felt very comfortable with Tracy at our meet and greet. Our cat, who hides from most people came right up to Tracy immediately. Tracy kept in touch with us regularly and sent pictures while we were away. I've never felt more comfortable and she seemed to know how we felt and did everything right and even left our house looking perfect, took care of plants inside and out and birdfeeders and even offered more help that we hadn't mentioned. Tracy went above and beyond and we will definitely use her again if we ever leave for more than a day. Leaving pets is very difficult but Tracy truly understands and gives your pets everything they need with no complaints and she enjoys being the type of help that's extremely difficult to find. We thank her from the bottom of our hearts! We recommend her wholeheartedly!”
About: Grown up with animals all my life. They are my people and I treat them how I want to be treated. I have had all types of dogs ranging from a headstrong frenchie to a diabetic abused beautiful Great Dane. Standard poodles are my spirit animal and I have had the luxury of having three (so far) in my life. I’m the friend/family member that when they need someone to help with their fur babies I’m the first person they reach out too. I’m currently working only part time as a bartender so I have a great deal of free time and availability. My schedule allows me to be very flexible. I’m responsible and reliable and will treat your pets like they are my own. I have an amazing home with one frenchie now with a large (mostly shaded) fenced in yard.

Eloria was fantastic with our dog Luna! She was so helpful from start to finish by meeting Luna first to ensure it was a good fit all the way to a little welcome home treat for us! She sent us updates throughout our week and kept our house so clean! I would most definitely love to have Eloria come back to stay with Luna again!!
Eliora was such a joy to work with! She is kind, well-mannered, genuine and a great communicator. She took great care of our home as well as our fur babies. The house was clean and tidy and she even left a welcome home surprise! We highly recommend her and will be using her services again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Jaars is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $69 per night. 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.

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 Jaars 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 Jaars 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 Jaars 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.
