About: I live with my 12 year old Australian Shepherd named Bailey, a 5 year old orange Tabby named Pickle, and a 3 year old tuxedo cat named Fern. I love animals of all kinds and would like to use my love of animals to earn extra income. I will provide treats, attention, and positively reinforced gentle training. I'm responsible with animals and enjoy teaching tricks, manners, verbal and non verbal cues. I've never met a pet that I couldn't love! It makes me sad that our sweet pets are home alone missing us while we are at work, so hire me! I've been called a 'dog freak' more than once. Please let me work with you and your pets. I'll be waiting!
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I’ve cared for senior dogs who needed diapers, special diets, and extra patience, and I also have experience with animal medical administration and providing attentive routine care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work full time, but I have a flexible schedule and am able to work with you to find a routine that fits your needs. I’m happy to coordinate visit times and care schedules in advance so your fur family gets the consistency and attention they deserve. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule while making sure I can provide reliable, loving care for your pets. I provide care in my clients’ homes, with a focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment and maintaining their normal routines. I offer weekend care, drop-in visits, and walks. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, gets the attention and exercise they need, and receives any routine care you’ve requested. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule and care instructions so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I was the kid hanging out in the neighbors dog house when my mom couldn't find me. Ive had a number of dogs since early on. Currently I have 4 dogs that run our household. We treat our dogs with love and kindness and reward with positive feedback. I would like to believe that people want the best for their pets, and with my care they will be treated as you would or better. I work from home currently and have access to let the pups out as needed. The fenced yard is high. They love the space and freedom of no leash. I have a fenced yard and 4 large dogs that play well with others. I do have a separate space if nessecary to keep them separated. I like to engage with the pups to keep them busy.. Hopefully if we play long enough they sleep well for me and you.
About: I have taken care of dogs and horses and absolutely enjoy making sure they feel safe and loved. Pets bring so much joy and comfort. I hope to do the same for the pets I am watching. I'm currently working part-time, so I am available for more time. My son is off to the Marines, so I can stay at the client's house. This love for pet sitting began when my friends asked me to take care of their animals while they were on. vacation I prefer the pets at the client's house, where they feel more comfortable. Building trust with pets is key; they feel safe and secure while parents are gone. I will communicate with you as well as you see fit when you are gone to ensure you are happy and safe.
“Sarah’s was great with my very senior Jack Russell Terrier. She was also on time for each sit which is very important to me, and was flexible and very good natured about a change in plans. A very good house sitter!”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful in caring for our dog, Lucy. Our house was spotless and she made us feel super comfortable in leaving Lucy. She provided pictures and updates. We came home and while our dog was happy to see us, she also had a calmness to her that made us know she was well cared for while we were gone. Thank you, Julia!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I bring to every pet. I’ve had my cat for 8 years and have cared for family dogs, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to caring for my own cat every day. I make time for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and attention. I’m also flexible with my schedule and can make time for visits and care based on each pet’s needs and routine. I care for pets with patience, attention, and consistency. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also respect their home, keep things clean, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable while they’re away.
“Annika was very sweet on our first meeting.. She asked all the right questions on care and expectations for our pups while we were on vacation.. I got daily pictures, she took our dogs to their favorite park and sent more photos.. Very nice to work with!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs my whole life. I’ve had pretty chill dogs, rough dogs, and dogs that run away any chance they get. I’m prepared for any dog that I can take care of. I do have another job working an asphalt and sealcoat business. But we only work days when it’s not wet after rain or not raining at all. I work out a lot. Other than that I’m open at any time. And I can do over night. I feed my dogs and let them out whenever they need to be let out. If they need specific things such as to be kenneled or anything of that nature I can easily do. I can also keep company with the dogs and play with them.
About: Hi I’m Sydney! I LOVE all animals, during the school year I work at an overnight doggy daycare. I’ve completed full online certification for that job and so you can trust your pets are in safe and reliable care with me! I also just love to spend time with animals and I think your pet and I would be great friends;) My schedule is super flexible and I’m a great communicator! Whatever you’re schedule may be I feel confident we can make it work in a way that’s best for you and your pet!💕 Comfort is priority when it comes to your animals. Whatever you as the owner suggest is best for your pet is best for me! I pride myself on my ability to provide high quality and custom care!
“Haley was an amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of both our dog and our cat while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated and loved receiving. When we got home, the house was spotless! Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her again.”
“James was great with our fur babies. He was attentive and sent us some fabulous photos! He contacted us with questions as needed. Our home was in great shape when we returned. Much like we never left.”
“Mari did such a good with Bailey! Very responsive, sent us updates when we asked, and she sent us photos and fun videos of our girl. We really appreciated her giving our girl so much love and attention over the Thanksgiving holiday. We absolutely recommend her!”
About: Started as a favor to friends and family, and evolved into a pet hotel of sorts. We help “ferrents” in need as well as any human needing safe and loving accommodations for their fur babies. We provide the best level of care during their stay. My partner and I honor dedicated walks, play time, as many cuddles as desired, and will follow strict food and med schedules. We take the responsibility very seriously and treat all animals as we would our own. I provide Rover services full-time. My partner has a flexible job and can fill any necessary gaps. He typically works 10-6 p.m. Monday thru Friday. We do not have children or animals of our own. Our backyard is fenced for added protection, but we love to take fur babies on walks. We have a ferret-proofed home (although they passed last year) which means anything concerning for a small animal has been eliminated. Because we do not have pets of our own, time and attention will be dedicated to any pet in our care.
About: My name is Hales! I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I grew up always having a dog and cat in my home. I love animals! There is nothing better than getting to know new pets and getting to hangout with them. Getting paid is just a huge bonus to that! ;) I know how important your fur babies are to you so make sure they are in good hands! I do have several references if you’d be interested in checking in on that. I’m excited to get to know you and your fur baby! If you’d like to know more or you feel like I’d be a good fit go ahead and shoot me a message! My schedule is flexible and that means that I can make time to make sure your fur baby is throughly cared for and properly loved. I work remotely so if need be I can be with your fur babies 24/7. While I don’t offer care in my own home I will be sure to take care of yours as if it was my own! I clean up after myself and your fur babies!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 387 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jessenland. 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 Jessenland 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 Jessenland 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Jessenland 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
