âLizzie was amazing! She kept us up to date on Cashew for the entire time we were away, sending us photos and asking questions when she needed to clarify some of our crazy, attitude-filled Corgi's actions. We will definitely be requesting her services again!â
âPaige did such an amazing job taking care of our girls and our home while we were away. She displayed excellent professionalism at our meet and greet and the girls quickly warmed up to her. She maintained excellent communication by providing multiple updates with pictures and a video!â
âChelsea was wonderful, we booked her last minute after a family member became ill and could not sit our dog, Kenzie. She stayed over night and sent pictures and updates. I felt very confident leaving our home and dog in her care. Will definitely use her again.â
âTook excellent care of all of our fur babies while we were on vacation! Very communicative and sent regular updates/photos of how everyone was doing. Thank you S for the wonderful care!!! đâ
âRyan was so attentive, patient and handled an emergency situation with ease. When our 4 year old Labrador got sick, Ryan was the best at communicating, confirming he could handle the situation and managed to put us all at ease. Highly recommend him. We were grateful for his professionalism.â
About: I have spent my entire life caring for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, birds and pocket pets- my own and as a professional. I have 38 years as a pet care professional as a dog trainer, vet tech, groomer and am a faculty member of the Holistic Actions for Animals foundation. I have offered in home pet care for over 20 years and am the author of The Everything Dog Obedience Book. I am self- employed with a lot of flexibility to accommodate different schedules and needs. My passion is helping people and pets understand each other. My 2 dogs are very friendly and well- socialized to all other types of pets and people. As an experienced trainer, I can help manage your dogâs energy productively with walks, play, training and mental stimulation.
âMaddie was fantastic- great communication, asked great questions, left our house spotless and skillfully cared for our three somewhat needy cats! Would highly recommend to everyone! Thank you again Maddie!â
âCole was spectacular with our older basset hounds. He was able to get both of them on walks (not easy with one being a little grumpy with new people). Both dogs while happy to see us, didnât seem like they had been stressed while we were away- a big improvement for us! Cole also kept our home on great order, dealt with a clogged sink, and even watered my plants (without me asking!). We canât wait to use him again for future times away- the boys seemed to enjoy his presence.â
About: for as long as I can remember, I've loved animals. From my own pets, friends' pets, and pet stores, I've always done my best to learn about the animals I'm taking care of. From Lizards to cats, I always use common knowledge and the knowledge that not every animal is the same. As an aspiring artist, most of my days are spent driving to and from clients. Lots of free time for new clients. Except for tuesday nights. Every pet is an induvial that has different needs. For my own clients, I spend lots of time making sure they have all basic needs before I give special attention. Sometimes this is just sitting with them in the same room, others its playing with them and making sure they are healthy and happy.
âBusara was an incredible dog sitter! From the moment she came for the meet and greet, I was impressed. My dog was calm and took to her immediately, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even took notes about his care, showing how attentive and thorough she is. After the meet and greet, she sent a detailed care summary and promptly accepted the booking. Throughout our trip, she communicated amazingly, sending multiple updates and photos of our baby every day through out the day. It made being away so much easier knowing he was happy and well cared for. When we returned home, everything was in perfect condition. She brought in our mail, watered our plants, and most importantly, our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. I would absolutely recommend Busara to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again the next time our family travels!â
âGabrielle did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs for an overnight visit. We have one very nervous little boy, an energetic âmiddle child,â and a slow, super-senior female. Pleased to say we came home to 3 happy dogs!â
About: I have always been a pet lover ever since I can remember! Growing up, my family has had golden retrievers, cocker spaniels, shih tzus, and my family now has a labradoodle, but I absolutely love all dogs! My sister has also had pet bunnies that are the cutest. I would love to have a dog right now, but at the moment I would love to help others with their pet sitting needs. Please reach out! Iâm a high school teacher, so Iâm currently looking to pet sit only at clientsâ homes mainly on weekends or nights during the week! I provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment by following each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. When I am caring for a pet at a clientâs home, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident knowing their pet is happy and well cared for!
âMegan was fantastic! She provided regular updates, photos and videos about our girl while we were away. This was the first time weâd been away from Joy for over a week and we will certainly contact Megan again when weâre away in the spring.â
About: I love animals and I will care for your animals like my own. I have 11 years experience and currently have two Maltipoos, Scrappy and Scruffy. Iâm currently working part time so I have plenty of time for walking your dog. Iâm available all week and just started pet sitting this month. I will provide a loving and nurturing environment for your pets and will never raise my voice. While they are in my care they will be treated like family.

FAQs for House Sitting - Jefferson Crossroads
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Jefferson Crossroads on Rover is $48.84 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 311 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jefferson Crossroads. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Jefferson Crossroads walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Jefferson Crossroads 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Jefferson Crossroads 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 Jefferson Crossroads. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
