“We needed help with our pets very last minute and she was so accommodating and happy to help us out! Fantastic communication and lots of pictures of our babies, we will definitely be reaching out to her again next time we leave town!”
“Christy was amazing with my fur babies and house! This was my first time ever having someone watch my pets I didn’t know. I was really nervous and Christy came to do a meet and greet before to meet my little ones and learn about our routines. My dog is very high maintenance and was recently diagnosed with a disease where he has to be watched most the day and needs daily medicine. She made sure he was really taken care of and was great about sending updates and pictures!! She treated my babies like they were her own. I would love to have her watch my pets again.”
“David was amazing from our first point of contact. He was responsive, asked questions to fully understand our needs and learn about our pets, set up meet and greet, and kept us informed with daily texts and photos. We will happily use David again in the future!”
“Sarah was totally awesome! She watched after my pup, kept to my weird hours of check ins, and left my house clean and organized! Will definitely be using her next time I go out of town because I know my dog is in great hands!!”
“Valeria was the best at watching my two Belgian Malinois. She went above and beyond at keeping them stimulated and cleaning up after them. They loved her! She can definitely handle all types of dogs of different difficulty, so don’t worry! Thank you so much!”
“Larisa was EXCEPTIONAL! She stayed at my home with my dogs (3 of them). She played outside with them everyday and was in constant contact with me. My dogs are very spoiled and usually take days to warm up to someone. They were her best friends within hours of me leaving. She really went above and beyond. They were sad to see her leave and waited at the door to see if she would come back. I will definitely be using Larisa again. My only issue is my dogs love her too much 😂 especially my border collie who got more playtime in the 5 days I was gone than see normally does in a month! Very attentive and loving pet sitter.”
“Oliver stayed at our home while we were away for our destination wedding and he was AMAZING with our dog Hank!! We truly felt like we didn’t have to worry about Hank and that he was in great hands. Oliver was super responsive and sent us lots of updates. We really appreciate all his help and we can tell Hank had so much fun on walks and hanging out with Oliver. We will definitely be using Oliver again! Thank you!”
“Mirna was great. This was our first time using her and she was very professional, communicated well during her stay and sent lots of puppy pictures which I love. The dogs seemed very happy while they were in her care. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“I wish I could leave a 10 star review or more because 5 doesn't do it justice for how Hannah took care of our boys and our home for twelve days while we were on vacation. I hope she stays our best kept secret, but she truly deserves recognition for all she did to keep that peace of mind strong while we were away, knowing our pups were in the absolute best care we could have hoped for. Hannah was kind, courteous, and sent daily video updates and images of the boys. She was thoughtful and consistent, was always quick to respond and was just overall a pleasure. We have already booked her again for another trip we have planned!”
“I had never left my fur baby with anyone but family and was really worried about leaving her with a stranger, but Randi eased my concerns from the first moment we met! She was so sweet with my girl and sent me regular updates while I was gone. She did an excellent job the entire time and probably took better care watching my baby than my family would have!”
“She took great care of our dogs and cat while we were gone. She updated us frequently throughout her time with our pets and was very easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend!”
“Sofia was so great with Uno our 8 month old boxer!! She went above and beyond with updating us and making sure Uno felt comfortable while always having fun. We truly enjoyed our trip knowing Uno was in great hands. We will definitely keep booking Sofia, she was amazing.”
“She was great. She checked in through the day, sent photos and videos each day, she communicated very well and I appreciate her time with them and taking care of our home as well for the week we were gone. Respectful of your home and dogs snd would recommend her to anyone. Appreciate her.”
“Jairo was great with ours dogs! He kept us updated, communicated well. We really appreciated the notes he left about each of them during his stay with them. It gives us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We would definitely use his services again and highly recommend him!”
“John was professional, easygoing, and communicative. He stayed in our home with our pups for a week and they are all healthy and happy. He was very respectful of our home as well. We will definitely rebook!”
“Julie was great the my dogs. They absolutely loved her. She was super responsive before and during the sit. And did a great job of providing pictures and videos throughout the 4 day sit. The house was clean and well cared for. She did a great job and already have her booked for another sit.”
About: I have cared for multiple of my own cats since age 8. Along with this feline expertise, I love dogs and am dedicated to learning your pet’s needed care. I can feed, play, walk, clean after, and medicate. I am a part-time student on summer break, so I am virtually completely free to care for your furry companions! I am open to mornings, afternoons, and evenings. If a strong relationship is built with you and your pet, overnight care may be an option! During the school year, I am unavailable Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am accustomed to preventing pets from escaping homes and yards, as well as keeping harmful and messy items away. I am experienced with many different personalities to ensure animals feel safe and trusting.
About: Hi! I'm Kylie, a dependable and compassionate pet sitter with experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I believe every pet deserves personalized care, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for pets of different sizes and energy levels, following detailed feeding schedules, administering oral medications, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs on walks, and providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection. I always treat every pet as if they were my own. What sets me apart is my communication and attention to detail. I created a private Google Classroom for my clients where I post photo and video updates, daily summaries, and important notes about their pets throughout each stay. This gives owners one convenient place to stay connected and enjoy peace of mind while they're away. I also respect your home just as much as your pets. Whether I'm stopping in for a visit or staying overnight, my goal is for you to come home to happy pets, a well-cared-for home, and the confidence that everything was in good hands. I currently work part-time 3–4 days a week, but I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with each family's needs. I do my best to keep my calendar up to date and communicate clearly about my availability. For overnight stays, I plan my schedule to ensure your pet receives the time, attention, and routine they deserve. Whether it's walks, playtime, feedings, medication, or simply keeping them company, I'm committed to providing dependable care and making sure they feel comfortable while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do everything I can to keep their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special preferences or routines. I understand that staying in their familiar environment helps many pets feel more comfortable while their family is away. Your pet's safety is always my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure before letting pets outside, use leashes on walks unless otherwise instructed, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect your home by keeping it clean and tidy, bringing in mail or packages if requested, watering plants, and leaving everything just as I found it. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular photo and video updates through my private Google Classroom, along with daily summaries so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jersey Village
Couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for my two babies! Karlie took amazing care of both of Loki and Luna for an entire week, and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were with her. She was caring, reliable, attentive, and kept me updated throughout their stay. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about their well-being and made them feel comfortable and loved. She truly went above and beyond, and it’s clear she has a real passion for animals. Im incredibly grateful for the outstanding care Karlie provided and would absolutely trust her with my dogs again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and dependable sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Jersey Village
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Jersey Village on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,849 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jersey Village. 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 Jersey Village 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 Jersey Village 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 Jersey Village 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.

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.
