“Jacquelyn is amazing. She’s everything I’ve looked for in a critter sitter! She goes above and beyond. My critters all love her. She doesn’t just care for them, but provides love and attention. Having her watch them has enabled me to go on vacation and literally not worry about the care my critters are receiving, which is such a blessing! I feel confident they are in the best of care.”

“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.”

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, especially dogs! I previously worked professionally as a dog handler and walker at Biscuits & Bath in New York City, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and individual needs. Through this experience, I learned how important patience, attentiveness, and consistency are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, keeping them engaged and active, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets! I’m happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll always do my best to work around their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I’m also happy to discuss specific scheduling needs to find an arrangement that works best for you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! My professional experience working with dogs has taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and aware of each animal’s behavior and individual needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure to respect their environment and maintain the routines they’re most comfortable with. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special care requirements. I’m especially mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, using appropriate leashes and equipment, and ensuring pets are always supervised when necessary. I also understand that some animals may be nervous around new people, so I take a gentle approach and allow them to become comfortable at their own pace. I believe communication is an important part of building trust, and I’m always happy to send pictures and regular updates throughout each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and completely cared for!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I bring not just a love for dogs, but a deep understanding of their needs at every stage of life. I’ve cared for energetic puppies who need play, structure, and basic training, as well as senior dogs who require patience, medication, and gentle handling. I’m calm, responsible, and detail-oriented, always making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I also pay close attention to each pup’s unique personality and routine, so your dog feels right at home—even when you’re away. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I structure my day to prioritize walks, feeding times, play sessions, and any special care each dog might need. Whether I’m doing drop-in visits or overnight stays, I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, love, and activity throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to be fully present and responsive to each dog’s needs, making sure they stay happy, healthy, and well-cared for at all times. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always treat their space with respect and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable in their own environment. I follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, medications, or favorite toys and routines. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, play, and love while keeping their space clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I worked at a dog daycare/ boarding facility for about 3 years! I spent time with and cared for all different kinds of breeds and ages (6mo-Senior)! I work full-time at a preschool Monday-Friday from 8am-5pm in Weddington. I will be available throughout the weekdays as well as full availability on some weekends! Being aware of signs of any types of emotions is important in dogs. I can identify certain behaviors to be able to address what a dog needs to be healthy and happy!

Highly recommend!”

About: We're offering our home and attention to your four legged family as if though they were one of our own. We don't overbook and rarely take in two clients at a time so that we can offer your pup a calm and relaxed environment without a whole pack of dogs parading around. Three bedroom house with a backyard enclosed by privacy fencing where most of the fun goes down! We love to keep our guests physically and mentally stimulated so they have just as great of a vacation as you do. Whether they'd rather play fetch or just curl up to relax and snuggle, they're sure to have a great time! I work primarily from home so there will be ample opportunity for playtime and attention. I have experience with obedience and agility training, as well as a few years in a grooming salon so I'm comfortable around all breeds and sizes. Pitbulls to Pomeranians and everything in between, all are welcome here. I do require that any guest be potty trained, have basic training/manners, and be dog friendly, as we have another pup in the house and possibly a foster dog at the time. Additionally, they must be fixed (or be well trained to not mark/dominate) and up to date on all vaccines, paperwork will be verified prior to arrival. I do accept titer tests if you are trying to avoid over-vaccinating and welcome raw feeders as well. It's our goal to provide all of our guests with a safe, healthy, and pleasurable stay! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to send a message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Want your furbaby to be loved on and get exercised while you're at work? I'm also available for weekday daycare drop offs for a reduced rate. Let your pup make some friends and get tired out instead of being bored and alone all day. I'm also available to do home visits as well if within a certain radius of my location. So if you have a feline companion you can rest assured that they will receive all of the love and care that they're used to. Why I love dog sitting I have always loved dogs since a young age. I grew up with my family's GSD and when he passed I was gifted with a Weimaraner puppy who I trained in both obedience and agility and was my constant companion through the years. Although I have most experience with larger dogs, I worked in a grooming salon while in college and handled many smaller breeds as well. Meet my pets Lil' is our pride and joy who we rescued from a bad situation when she was only 5wks old. She's become the most wonderful addition to our household and loves playing with our guests. She's very good at reading different personalities and will engage in play or give space to a guest depending on how their personality dictates. Luna and Cozmo are our little house panthers who we decided to adopt after we rescued their mom and litter mates from a junk pile. They adore the pups, but can easily be kept up in another room if guest dogs aren't a fan. About my yard We have a fenced in backyard that is accessible by doggy door and surrounded by wooden privacy fencing. Concrete patio connects to the backdoor, then a gravel common area with two raised vegetable beds (no plants are toxic to dogs), fire pit, and arbor. My experience administering medication Yes, I will administer topical, oral and/or IM medications free of charge.

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.

FAQs for House Sitting - Jaars

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.

As of October 2026, there are 2,405 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jaars. 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 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.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
