About: I have had animals all my life. Living on a farm ranging from horses and pigs to cats and dogs. Now living by myself with 3 furry friends I’m confident I can handle and care for any surprises your pets would throw at me. I do currently work on Thursdays to Saturdays and every other Sunday. I work nights so if you are in need of help I can stop by during the days on those days. I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own. Each have their very own personalities. I pride myself in understanding their needs and wants. I do spoil them rotten. When living with my parents we had over 5 dogs at one time and multiple cats with other animals such as horses, rabbits, pigs and many others.

I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”

“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover and dog owner my entire life. For the past 13 years, my sweet Riley was my constant companion and best friend. I lost her in November, and while I’m not quite ready for another pet of my own, I have plenty of love and attention to give to yours. My three adult children all have dogs, so I’m also a proud “grand-doggie” mom! I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ll care for your pets the way I would want someone to have cared for Riley—with love, patience, and lots of attention. They’re not just pets; they’re family. I am currently available anytime. I work from home with my own coaching business and on occasion I help my mom with her doctors appointments. I live on a walking path and enjoy walking every day. I have been a dog owner for over 35 years and very careful and aware of my surroundings.

She was very sweet, attentive, and really helped keep him calm and happy while we were away. We felt very comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with a dog and I also worked at a vet clinic for 7 years. I went to tech school and absolutely love animals. You never have to worry if your furry friend is getting the play time or love they need! I have pet sit many of our family friends pets and feel comfortable around any size animal and breed. I can medicate animals if needed and I promise to always treat your pet as if they were my own. I will help keep them stress free and not worrying about where their owner is. I make things like nothing has changed. I love meeting new pets of all kinds. I'm more than happy to come to your home and make your pets feel safe and keep them as comfortable as possible while your away I work from home which gives me more flexibility to pop in and spend time with your pet so they don't feel lonely. It also gives me the flexibility to work anywhere, so I can take my work with me and hang out during the day so they aren't home alone. My routine is keeping their routine as normal for them as possible. I want them to be able to adjust to me being there with them but be like nothing has changed when the owners come back home.

Margie did a fantastic job watching my dog. Only having a days notice was still able to come do a previsit on Friday before watching him on Saturday. From the pictures, my dog warmed up immediately and made a new friend. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Jacksontown on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of September 2026, there are 2,084 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Jacksontown. 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 Jacksontown 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
