“Emma was WONDERFUL! I was very nervous about using Rover while we were away and Emma put us right at ease. She updated us every time she visited and our dog loved her. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Justine was awesome! She cared for my English bulldog while I was away on vacation. She walked him multiple times a day, even in the rainy/snowing weather. I received a detailed report card each day and pictures as well. I will definitely be using her again and I have recommended her to multiple people already. I was so hesitant being my first time using rover, but it was an awesome experience.”
“Megan did an awesome job looking out for my foster pup while I was out of town for a long weekend. She was really friendly and kept me posted with text messages and pictures after each of her visits. She totally put my mind at ease with her updates. I will definitely utilize her services again really soon!!”
“Shannon was VERY professional annd anssis is last minute when our previous planned provider feel through. She took time with our dog. Feedback was excellent and she gave him attention and care while we were away for the day. I definitely recommend her!!!”
“So pleased that Jaclyn was able to come and spend time with our dogs while we were away for the day! She sent us photos of the fun they had together and a nice write up of their time, and she even brought in some packages for us. Thank you so much, Jaclyn!!”
“Cassie did a great job with my 5 dogs with many different personalities. She followed my instructions to a T and sent lots of great photos! Definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve owned pets my whole life. Cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, bearded dragons, axolotls… I have had older cats and dogs that require medications and special care. I worked at a pet store for about 2 years. I am always willing to learn about your pet! I am a full time college student, I’m on campus for about 8 hours including commute time. A typical day allows me time to take care of my animals before I leave for class and when I get home. I have a fenced in yard for my dog. My cat and dog are free roam in the house. I have not had an outdoor cat and no declawing. The other animals in my household are in a spacious cage and well taken care of.
About: With over ten years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds, I have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs and personalities. From playful puppies to senior cats, I provide attentive, compassionate care to ensure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well-loved. My commitment is to treat each animal with the same respect and dedication I would give my own. I’m currently working part tome while also attending school but can provide frequent check ins for your pets while also provide house sitting on weekends if needed. I provide dependable in-home pet care, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is well cared for while you’re away.
“Alex & Andrea were wonderful to work with! They gave us picture updates with every visit and were quick to respond to requests, questions, and concerns. Would definitely book them again in the future!”
“Veronica was a pleasure to work with and made our first Rover experience great! She communicated well and treated our pups with love and care while we were away. 100% recommend!”
“Abigail was absolutely PERFECT! After the last day my husband asked if she could come every day, lol. Being in another country and away from home can be daunting and I never worried about my kitties or home as she sent me detailed updates and pics every day. I looked forward to that every day. Her services are very affordable but the peace of mind she brings is priceless. My cat is very spicy and requires daily meds orally and it is not easy! I'm a Vet Tech and it's hard for me. Abigail did everything with ease and was always positive and looking for new ways to make the process go better and easier on my cat. I will use Abigail again and again as long as she is available. Once the word gets out how fabulous she is I'm not sure how often I'll get the chance! I could go on and on but I'll cut it short and say you should definitely hire her - you won't be disappointed.”
“It was our first time trying the rover app and we weren’t sure if someone will be able to look after our pets given the busy Christmas season. Thankfully we found Rebecca! Kuma and Kitty seemed to warm up to her right away. She was communicative. Will definitely book again 👍🏻”
“Completely enjoyed having Maria drop in and help my senior cats Ginger and Stella. House was neat and both cats were calm and satisfied when I got back. Maria also gave some detailed reviews with each visit which was very reassuring. We’ll be happy to have her back next trip!”
About: I have dog sat for neighbors and family for the last 10 years. I walk dogs, play with them, feed them, and clean up after them. I am currently a teacher on summer break so I am available during the work day to spend some time with your furry friends! I can also walk dogs as well. I am able to care for your furry friends at your home. I currently do not have a dog, but grew up with 3 family dogs. I love spending times with my family dogs, playing with them and taking them for walks.
“Debra has been coming for drop-in visits at my house for 2 weeks to take care of my sweet pup. She always spends the time taking great care of him. I hope to continue to use Debra on a long term basis when I need help caring for my pup. Highly recommend!!”
About: I have been caring for pets my entire life, but officially became a Rover Provider in June 2025. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, kittens and adult cats, reactive dogs, timid pets, and even exotic pets. I cared for guinea pigs for six years, and have experience caring for breaded dragons, snakes, fish, and more. Currently, I live with a Cane Corso, Yorkie Poo, two cats, and a mutt. Pet-care is one of my passions, I am always ready to learn how to care for new pets! My daily routine is built around pet-care. I am used to adapting my schedule to accommodate for walks, feeding, check-ins - whatever is best for your pet. of flexibility. I build safety and trust with clients through clear, honest, and open communication. I will be upfront about what I can and cannot do. I build trust with the pets by following their lead. I read body language to determine the boundaries shared by the pet, and respect them. Above all, I strive to foster a warm and welcoming environment that prioritizes not only the safety of every living creature involved, and their happiness and joy, too!
“Aimee is wonderful! Our cats loved her, and they're usually shy with new people. At the meet & greet they both engaged with her, which made us trust that they were going to be in good hands. We received daily, timely updates, with lots of adorable pictures and a video. Aimee went above and beyond to ensure we felt the care given to our furry children, and the bonus kids outside. Aimee is an animal lover, genuine, very kind and thoughtful. We highly recommend her, your pets are in safe & loving care.”

10/10, I would absolutely book with her again! She made the entire experience seamless from start to finish. Communication was excellent, everything went smoothly, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely recommend her to others.
Cassie was wonderful with my pets. Both of my Senior dogs needed a bit of extra attention, one scratched his eye and Cassie took the extra time to get him checked out with our vet. She gave great updates on how my babies were doing and snapped some fabulous pictures of them as well! I always get anxious when leaving my pets to go out of town but they were all in great hands. Thank you so much, Cassie!
I really cannot say enough wonderful things about Veronica! This was our 3rd booking with Veronica while we were out of town, and as usual, she was amazing. Our once shy and skittish kitty has become comfortable with Veronica and her check ins - that in and of itself was a huge success! I’m always so grateful for Veronica and her ability to put my mind at ease. I trust her wholeheartedly to care for our girls in our absence. Thank you for the fabulous care and concern you always provide!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Jacobsville on Rover is $16.05 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,058 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jacobsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
