“Very detailed and professional. My 3 fur babies who have never opened to somebody in first meeting so quickly did so in 10 min of his arrival. He seems very passionate abpit his profession:)”
“Isabel was fantastic with our pup while we were away. She was communicative, attentive, and clearly took great care of him. The regular updates gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“Chase loves Imani! Her calm and friendly demeanor were an A+ and just what my dog enjoys. Imani was great with his high energy and sent me lots of pics and updates. I will definitely book her again.”
“Hannah was one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had! She went above and beyond on everything and was super communicative and helpful. She house sat for us and left our home in great condition. Would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!”

About: IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME, ASK ME FOR A $20 PROMO CODE Experienced and responsible. Dog care and training with safety and enrichment in mind. Life-long dog lover! Dog walking is not a side-hustle for me. My goal is to reduce stress, encourage calmness and satisfy your pup's natural instinct in every walk! 7-year experience raising my rescue 60lb pit-shepherd mix with reactivity issues. I have hands-on experience handling reactivity, leash-pulling, fear and stress in city dogs, through weekly volunteer work at local shelters. I pay close attention to each pup's needs and take guardians' notes seriously. I walk and train using science-based, relationship-focused methods — not dominance, for lasting behavior. I'm GCT certified and pursuing CPDT-KA and CCDT via CATCH Professional Dog Training Academy. I am also a guardian of 2 rescue tabbies - Sol & Luna. I am currently a full-time dog walker and trainer, on top of caring my own dog and cats at home and volunteering in shelters weekly. I am generally available M-F: 8a-7p; S-S: 1p-7p. Other hours may be accommodated on demand. A first 15-min meet and greet is a must for all walks to review your needs and your pup's routine, gears, personality, leash skills and any reactivity concerns. I am highly diligent on walks to look out for potential triggers and avoid scavenging. A safe distance from other dogs and humans is always maintained. I give them plenty of time to sniff and explore while keeping a close eye. The goal is to reduce stress, encourage calmness and satisfy your pup's natural instinct on every walk! I never let dogs off-leash or go into dog parks. If your dog likes to play, I can keep them on a long leash for run and chase time.
“Michelle dog sat my pup Ozzie for the night. He was immediately so comfortable with her and not as anxious as usual. She is great and communicated very well. I would highly recommend Michelle.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for breeds of all sizes. Most recently, I was the primary caregiver to my 2 huskies for the last 6 years, raising them since they were babies, so I am comfortable with crate training, commands, walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and daily care. I have also spent time volunteering at animal shelters before so I’m very comfortable around new dogs with different types of energy. I currently work part-time, remotely so my schedule is very flexible. I am dependable for all your pet needs from daily drop-ins to overnight care. I am comfortable and confident in following your instructions for pet care. I have experience with crate training, feeding schedules, daily walks, and commands for dogs of all sizes and ages.
About: Ive had my own dogs for the past 15 years and have taken care of multiple pets of all different species and sizes! I’m also a dog trainer and have been around plenty of dogs with different temperaments and personalities! Dogs are my passion and I’m here for all your furry friends! I’m currently working part time but definitely want to make walking and training my main priorities! Building a consistent relationship with your pups is very important to me! My dogs are trained and have free roam of the upstairs! They are potty trained and elderly but still so bright and full of life.
“Tedy was caring and sweet, she is very knowledgeable. My dog was nervous at first but she was great with him and he warmed up to her. She kept us informed and up to date with everything and sent many videos. We will be using her again for walks and dog sitting.”
“Jewel was quick to respond to my request and asked many good questions before agreeing to house sit. She also wanted to have a meet and greet before our appointment which I really appreciated. She is very communicative, thorough in terms of what is expected and knowing what the dogs need, and very good-humored; she even took notes during our meeting. The dogs were immediately comfortable with her and I was perfectly confident leaving them in her care. She gave me updates during the day, and everything was great when I returned. The dogs were happy and so was I. I would certainly request her to stay with them again.”
“This was our first time having Razan watch our cat, and she was fantastic! She is proactive, considerate, and highly communicative. I especially appreciated that she took the time to meet our cat beforehand to learn how to administer his asthma inhaler. While we were away, she was attentive to all his needs and sent daily photos and updates. We returned to a clean and tidy apartment. Thank you so much, Razan!”
“Cynthia watched my pup overnight and took such good care of him. I felt at ease knowing he was not alone and with someone who genuinely likes dogs (even old cranky ones like mine). Thank you so much Cynthia!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jamaica
Five stars all around! Madison was lovely to work with, they were thoughtful, incredibly friendly, and proactive with communication. They took amazing care of not only Sabzi, but our apartment as well--my husband and I were grateful to come back home from our travels to a happy, relaxed pup. Would absolutely book Madison again in a heartbeat. TYSM :)
Savanna is one of the sweetest pet sitters I have ever had. She is so patient and sweet with both my pups, even my rescue who is very timid. It's so valuable to have someone you trust. Whenever Savannah is sitting, I never worry about them because I know they are in good hands. She is always on time and keeps me informed on the sit. I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for a loving pet sitter.
Isabel did a very nice job with my dog Onyx. She was with him for two days and one night. She followed every instruction I gave, and kept in touch with me the whole time. She also kept the house very tidy as well. The cherry on top was the fact that she left her own little note to me and I really appreciated that. Would definitely book her again.
I cannot express enough how happy I am we found Phaedra! Shelby and Lucky instantly warmed up to her and we knew right away they’d be in great hands while we were away. She kept me updated the whole time and spent a lot of time working with Shelby, who is afraid of everything and is very reactive on walks, and it was amazing to see the difference in her from when we left to when we got back. We came home to happy pups and a clean house. I will definitely have Phaedra watch Shelby & Lucky again!
Regina was such a thoughtful, caring, and attentive sitter for our two cats. She sent pictures and video clips every day, and let us video call them when she could sense they missed us. She was considerate and kind, and I loved that she created a genuine connection with our babies, so much so that she will miss them. I highly recommend working with Regina. Thank you for making our week-long vacation worry-free!
Catherine was great!! She stayed over Thanksgiving break to watch our cats and they had a great time with her. She also went above and beyond to clean our apartment before we came back. We came home to relaxed, happy cats and a clean home, which makes traveling much less stressful. Would highly recommend her to watch anyone’s pets!

FAQs for House Sitting - Jamaica
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Jamaica on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 18,986 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jamaica. 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 Jamaica 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 Jamaica 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 Jamaica 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jamaica. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
