“Professional and personable, are how I would describe Megan. From, our initial meeting, to the explanation of our dogs routine, and through the experience of caring for our Beagle. We had the feeling she was responsible, and is very pleasant. Our dog verified our feelings accepting Megan as a friend as soon as they met. We will not hesitate to have Megan care for Layla again.”

“Rebekah is a lovely sitter. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, compassionate, responsible pet sitter. I feel great about reaching out for future help the next time I go away.”

“Jessica is amazing as usual! ☺️ Always feels nice to get away with knowing my fur babies will be taken care of. So happy that Lenny is coming around too! 🐱 Thank you!!”

“I am a first-time customer with Rover.com. I submitted a request for a petsitter to watch my cats while I was out of state. For six days (including Labor Day weekend), Sarah M. took excellent care of my “Little Ones”. During all ten visits, she went the extra mile and cleaned up the occasional fur balls (yuck🤢) and small-scale disasters my cats made. My cats took a liking to her and that doesn’t usually happen. That means there’s something special about Sarah M. She is thorough, meticulous, kind, considerate, and professional. I’ll gladly ask her to watch my pets again! Thank you, Sarah! You’re a godsend!!😊💯👍🏾”

“Elise is seriously the best of the best. I’ve been using her as a sitter since 2024. There have been a few occasions that I have had to send a last minute request and she is always accommodating”

“Murray was wonderful! They were reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of everyone. We received updates and photos, which helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our pets were safe and happy. It was clear they genuinely cared about the animals and paid attention to their individual needs. We came home to happy, healthy pets and everything was just as we left it. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!!”


About: I have had dogs my entire life and have cared for them in their senior years with love and respect. This included giving medications, caring for incontinence and overall creating an environment that met their sometimes, seemingly to the outside world, over the top needs. But, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do to make their lives a little better and as comfortable as possible. I’m a stay at home mom and housekeeper so I have a flexible schedule Monday through Friday between the hours of 9am to 3pm. I currently care for one family’s 5 dogs about 10 days a month. So I can take helping a a few more families. I am currently available to do drop in visits and walking of your pets at your home. I am a very cautious and detail oriented person so if I’m caring for your pet I will be as diligent about keeping them safe during walks and outdoor time as I am with my own.
About: I was raised as a child with pets - fish, cats and of course dogs. Rowing up we had 2 Irish Setters a Chihuahua and multiple cats. As an adult I started off with just having multiple cats and then began to have dogs enter my life again. I had a very loving Pit Bull for a short period of time and a few years later I adopted a Boston Terrier who is now 13 years old. In addition to my senior dog, I now also have a 1 ½ year old Boston and 1 senior cat. I never had children so these are my kids and my extended family. I do everything I can to ensure they have a loving home and are well cared for and I will do the same for your four-legged kids :) With a lot of patience I have been able to do a few simple commands with my dogs. I have experience with potty training a puppy and also have extensive experience with senior dogs as my senior is currently half blind, has incontinence issues (at times) and has trouble walking. I work M-F, 900am-600pm. Im typically home in the evenings and on weekends. When I know im pet sitting i stay home so my focus is on your pet. I spend a lot of time playing, walking and giving love to my pets. I will do the same for yours. I have a large unfenced yard but also have a dog park nearby that i utilize. My pets are on a regualr feeding schedule and I will adhere to any directions or special needs you may have,
About: I have a genuine love for animals! Growing up, I planned to get into the veterinary field. This didn’t pan out, but I interned at a local vet hospital and was a small animal science major my first year of college. I grew up around cats and dogs and always have treated them like they’re part of the family. I usually enjoy being around animals more than most people 😅. I work from home most days (about 75% of the time) and can be available to spend a great amount of time with your pet! I look for guidance from the owner on their expectations surrounding their pets and like to hold to the routines as much as possible to ensure the best care is provided.
About: Lover of all pets, especially big dogs! I have never known a home without a dog. Bully breeds and rescues have a special place in my heart. We currently have one lovable special old pitty at home. I am very comfortable with administering medicine, assisting with lifting the pet up, or in to a couch/bed. I will walk as slow or fast as they want. I personally miss having a pet that I can walk with ( our old guys isn’t up for that this days) and would love to take yours on a walk! I work remotely several days a week and have availability on most weekends and evenings. I work remotely several days per week and can often sneak out for afternoon walks. I am available on some evenings, in between kid activities as well as weekends. I would treat any pet like they are my own. Nice walk at their desired pace, talk to them, refresh water and give a treat. Whatever they need!
About: Since I was a kid, I've always had cats and dogs. I also grew up caring for horses, goats, and barn cats in exchange for horseback lessons. Currently, I have a cat and a senior dog whom I love with all my heart. I promise to treat your animals with the same diligence, attentiveness, and care. I am extremely reliable and follow directions thoroughly. I am physically fit and able to walk dogs for long distances with ease. I can also jog with dogs or play fetch with them if you'd like more exercise for your pet. Balance is important in life -- I am happy to help you out! I look forward to giving your pets the best care imaginable. I have nearly full availability for pet sitting for the next few months. I am available weekdays and most weekends, with some exceptions. I can take on long-term house sitting if needed, up to 1 week. I am able-bodied and able to walk or sometimes jog with dogs. If your dog prefers catch or tug-of-war, I am happy to play with them. Exercise is important for cats, too. My own cat is silly and only likes to play in very specific ways, but still, I try my best to play with him and provide the enrichment he deserves. I will try my best to get to know your animal and learn how they like to play. I am also willing to brush animals, crate them, and provide medicine. I am very respectful upon entering homes -- I always take off my shoes to ensure cleanliness. If I am staying overnight, I promise to treat your home with respect and boundaries.
“Natalie was very caring and considerate of our furry friends. Although they were shy at first, our flurries warmed up to her. She was timely every check in and communicated in detail about all the updates with them. We will definitely recommend her and work with her again!”

“Cheyene did a great job with our anxious pup and crazy husky! She was on time, sent great pics, and gave us feedback about how Zelda and Willow were behaving to make us feel more at ease with our first time using Rover.”

About: Comfortable working with any species, breed, or age group. My 14+ years in the veterinary field have given me a lot of knowledge to be the best pet care provider I can be. I work remotely. Mainly available after 9 am, over my lunch break, and after 5 pm. This will work well for morning/evening walks and a potty break over lunch. If you have wifi, I can spend more quality time with your 4 legged family members throughout the day. I have our downstairs area where my office is located gated off and I can crate your pet if necessary. My dog used to sleep in my office while I worked all day.
About: I've always had animals in my home. I've had lots of cats, dogs, horses, birds, fish, lizards, anything you can think of! I've raised and trained lots of puppies and kittens. I spend every waking moment with a pet if I can I'm a full time student taking online classes, so I have lots of free time. There's a few early mornings a week where I babysit as well Currently I am taking care of pets in client homes, as I live on campus. I like to bring my own things if a client doesn't have them, like toys, treats, pads, etc
About: They say grief is love with no place to go, so since my senior Belgian Malinois passed away, I've been fostering dogs and would like to get into dog walking. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I have pet-sat for family and friends as well. I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am generally available during daylight hours Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and 5 PM or later Tuesday and Thursday. Before or at the start of our first walk, I'd like to get to know your dog's preferences, triggers, and typical walking habits and routes. I suggest treats for positive reinforcement if working on socialization and a slip lead to reduce pulling. A safe, enjoyable outing is my priority for your dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,296 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jacobus. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jacobus. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
