“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!”
“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!”
“Christy was absolutely amazing! Flexible, caring, dependable. My dog wouldn't eat so she hand feed her 2 times a day. My dog had an accident in the house and Christy not only cleaned it up but washed and dried the dog bed too! One of my cats disappeared (he is a good hider) and she was so concerned, then I gave her some tips where he likes to hide and there he was! My husband and I are are so thrilled to have found Christy and will certainly be using her again and again. She is the best!”
“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.”
“Sara was fantastic! She was responsible, responsive and very prompt with her communication. Both dogs were very comfortable with her - even our picky boy Tucker! We would recommend her and plan on hiring her again.”
“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!”
“Remy took great care of our dog and cat and house! He was very polite and responsive to our texts and sent us daily updates. Was a huge help bringing in the mail, cleaning up after our pets and watering our plants. Would highly recommend Remy to friends!”
“Mya is truly an amazing person. We had a last minute family trip come up and luckily, I came across her profile just days before. I felt so at peace leaving my home and furbabies with her, she did such an amazing job. Mya has our trust and can’t wait to use her again the future. -The Ang’s”
“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!”
“Hannah house sat for me while I was on vacation, and she took great care of my kitty! She made sure to play with him and keep him company, and she sent me photos of him. He loved having her watch him! I definitely recommend Hannah for anyone who needs a cat sitter!”
“My two girls loved Victoria!!! Every day she took them on walks, and gave them their every daily essentials. She would send us pictures numerous times during the day with her daily interactions that made us feel reassured that they were being well taken care of. She’s a sweet and nurturing person that you know that your fur babies are being well taken care of. The house was very clean and the girls were well picked up after.”
“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!”
“Oliver did a wonderful job’s taking care of Murphy and our house during our 2 week vacation. He gave consistent updates and many photos. It was obvious that Murphy was happy and comfortable, well exercised and ate well. We are being happy that Oliver and Amy helped us with Murphy. 5 star service!!!”
“Booked for house sitting. Cecilia arrived on time, was respectful of our home, and gave our boy lots of attention. She followed our care instructions and provided plenty of updates and photos.”
“My husband and I were pretty nervous about leaving our shy cat for our 10-day honeymoon but Nicole did a wonderful job with him. He was snuggling up for pets and showing her his belly within a few days! She sent us pics every day so we could relax and enjoy our trip knowing he was in good hands.”
“The dogs liked him. He was very attentive. Kept us posted on everything that was going on with daily pictures with updates. Will definitely use him again.”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I absolutely love animals and the joy they bring. I have experience with pets of all ages and health issues including diabetes and epilepsy. I understand how traumatic it can be for pets to be without their owners and I do everything I can to make it easier on both of you. I work part time and it is mostly from home. I have a very open schedule so I can cater to my clients. I can also easily work on my laptop with a dog or cat on my lap. I am happy to treat your pets as my own. I can send you updates with photos so you know they are okay. I will be respectful of your home and privacy.
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jersey Village
Val was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our dogs while we were away, and we had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like her own, and went above and beyond in every way. She even took the time to water our plants, which was so thoughtful. We came home to happy pups and a well-cared-for home. We couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter and would wholeheartedly recommend Val to anyone looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring. Thank you so much, Val!
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 July 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 July 2026, there are 3,832 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.
