About: I’m a true animal lover! I’ve cared for furry family my entire life. A house is not a home for us without them. I take the time to get to know clients wishes & customize each visit according to each guest’s desire. If you prefer couch over doggy bed, they get the couch. If you don’t want them on your couch at home, then that’s off limits. I have been a dog trainer in the past, so I can help with that too while your furry family is entrusted to my care. We live on a small farm with two 6’ high fenced play areas with pet pools & toys. Your furry family member is my first priority! This is my full time job. I’m home most of the day, each & every day. If they need lots of extra playtime each day, I’m happy to oblige! Their happiness makes me happy. 😊 Your furry family becomes our furry family. I treat them as our special guests while here & cater to their individual needs. I like to think it’s their vacation time as well while you’re on your vacation; all while following the same guidelines you have established in your home. I follow your rules whether caring for your pets in my home or yours. I have 2 large 6’ high fenced play areas. We play catch, frisbee, & have a growing number of obstacles to entertain guests. Please let me know what I can do to make their visit most enjoyable. 💞🐶🐈🐎💞
About: I love dogs and have volunteered at the local shelter for the past 6 years...walking, feeding, cleaning cages of dogs and cats. I have owned several dogs over the years...all rescues and mixed bully breeds. I am currently retired so I have plenty of time to spend time taking care of your fur-babies. My home is pet friendly and I enjoy taking your pet for walks. I have a fenced yard. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in my bed. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and there are several walking paths in my neighborhood.
About: As a kid, I was the reason my parents got a dog that I ended up loving and taking care of during my childhood. I have always loved animals and as an adult now I have had a cat for 5 years. Dogs and cats always end up loving me as I always love them back! I have experience taking care of friend's pets (mostly cats), but I am also definitely able to take care of dogs if given instructions and I love to walk dogs as well. If you want someone who will love and care for your pet I am that person! I am currently flexible part time for pet care. I can take care of your pet in the morning or the afternoon for the most part and can be available on weekends as well Currently not able to care for pets in my home, but I will be able to go to your home and care for your pet if needed. I am respectful and will adhere to any instructions you put out for taking care of your pet in your home.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been one of the best parts of my day. I currently work from home with flexible hours, which means I’m able to give plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I do have a friendly dog of my own, and I’d love the opportunity to spend time with and gain more experience with other dogs as well. Whether your pup needs walks, cuddles, or a calm place to relax, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.
About: Hi, my name is James and I am an active and energetic animal lover that has had dogs and cats my entire life. In addition to my own pets, my wife and I have fostered with local dog and cat rescues for the past 10 years. My love for animals doesn't stop there, I have worked in the zoological industry for the past 20 years. My first 15 years as a zookeeper and the last 5 as a zoo curator. If you have domestic farm animals or exotics of any kind, I am very comfortable caring for them. I have experience administering medications and specialized diets, as well as, giving injections as needed. If you are looking for someone with a wealth of experience in caring for animals, please reach out. I am working full time, but am still able to overnight, if needed. Otherwise, I am available for any morning and evening care that is wanted. I'd prefer not to take care of any pets in my home for the time being due to the fact that we have several fosters, as well as our own pets.
About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was 12. I have taught my own dogs many tricks, take them on frequent walks, and provide lots of love! I make sure they have fresh water, food, and clean fur. I enjoy playing with small dogs gently and with care! I am a Kindergarten teacher that is currently available all summer long! I enjoy being active and keeping busy. Tending to animals has always been a passion of mine during my down time. I currently do not own any pets at the moment. When I did, I made sure to take my dogs for several walks, feed them with quality meals, change their water, and make sure their area is safe from hazardous items before leaving the house.
“Vanessa is amazing there should be 10 stars on here! She has excellent communication very professional took fantastic care of my pets played with them cared for them. She made me feel at ease leaving them with her. If you’re looking for a top-notch sitter, Vanessa is the person you want to work with!”
About: Though I'm relatively new to the *professional* pet care world, I've pet- and house-sat countless times for friends and family. From dogs and cats to lizards and rats, I've taken care of most types of pets, and love learning about animals of all sorts. I'll put in the time to learn your specific pets' needs and wants to ensure they get the best care possible. I've worked with children with special needs, people with dementia, and early-morning commuters, so I've got more than enough patience to help even the grumpiest of cats take their medicine, get their exercise, whatever they need to stay happy and healthy while you're away. I'm a self-employed artist, so my work comes with me wherever I go in the form of a sketchbook, pen case, phone, and planner. Taking care of your furry (or scaly, or feathered!) family fits right in to my workflow. I have my own pets at home, a ferret named Onion and a tabby named Bean. I've traveled long distances with both of them, so I am well trained at keeping an eye out for health and safety in stressful times. Don't worry though, they'll be staying put, cozy at home with my partner for the foreseeable future.
“Karina goes above and beyond with her care for our dog! Not only does she walk her daily, but also plays, brushes, trains, and provides detailed updates. Could not recommend her enough! Your pup will be in good hands :)”
“Miranda is very caring! I fully trust her caring for my puppies (3 and 6 month old puppies), she plays and interacts with them the whole time she is with them. Miranda provides very detailed reports”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, my sisters will ask me to watch them if they are away and I have two cats I work full time 9-5 but have plenty of time in the morning and evenings. I am also available on the weekends. I also work from home on Fridays so my day is flexible I take care of two cats at my house, I have helped friends and family with pet sitting their dogs, giving them company and taking them on walks
About: Having a small tiny dog(chihuahua) of my own, I've learned to be creative with the activities that we do as well as find different places to take her for walks. My dog is very temperamental, so I've had to increase my own training skills to be able to be a better pet mom. I'm open to trying new things and I'm great at following instructions. I am extremely dependable and I pride myself on always being on time and communicating when things don't go as planned. I love all dogs and will take care of yours as if its my own. My specific availability is Monday thru Friday 6 AM-8 AM and anytime after 5 PM. I have open availability on the weekends which is where I hope to do the most work. I work from home two days a week (Monday and Tuesday)and am off on weekends so I have plenty of time to fit in long weekend boardings. I have a fenced in yard which makes it easy to carve out play time or potty breaks. My neighborhood is extremely dog friendly and there is a dog park within walking distance.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 8,517 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Jobstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Jobstown 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!
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 .
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.
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 Meet & Greet .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Jobstown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
