“We are repeat customers of Kimmie because she is simply the best! She takes such wonderful care of our dogs, Maya and Carter, and truly treats them as if they were her own sweet little fur babies. This trip was especially difficult for us because both dogs had recently undergone surgery, and we were understandably anxious about leaving them. Kimmie went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, loved, and well cared for while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and photos, giving us tremendous peace of mind. It means the world to know our pups are in such compassionate and capable hands. We couldn’t recommend Kimmie more highly and will absolutely continue trusting her with our precious dogs. Thank you, Kimmie, for loving Maya and Carter like family. ❤️”
“I highly recommend Ryan! He is reliable, communicative, and does a wonderful job keeping you updated with photos. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my girl was in great hands while I was away. I would definitely trust him with her again!”
“Kellie did an amazing job with our aging pup Jordyn and our goldfish Lared! She was excellent at communication and did an amazing job! We couldn’t be more happy with our choice, and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking!”
“Elle did a great job of taking care of my dog, Luke, while we were away on vacation. She was fantastic about sending pictures and videos daily. She follows instructions and communicates well. My dog gets anxious during storms and she comforted him and made sure he was okay. I would highly recommend Elle for your pets!”
“Jennifer was great with our two French bulldogs. I could tell by the photos Jennifer sent the girls were happy and cared for. Jennifer kept us updated which gave us peace of mind. We highly recommend Jennifer and definitely will use her again.”
“My pets love when Karen comes to stay! They get so much care and attention that I'm not sure they have time to miss us. I always come home to a clean house and happy pets. I highly recommend her!”
“Kailiany was awesome. Regular updates, our 3 fur kids were happy and healthy when we returned, and she even put the trash out by the road for us. HIGHLY recommend and will definitely book again in the future. Thank you Kylie and Rover!”
“Kory did an amazing job with watching our senior dog and two cats during our wedding and honeymoon abroad! He was very kind, considerate, inquisitive and communicative! Would highly recommend him for in-home petsitting!”
“Nathan did an amazing job taking care of our dog! He went above and beyond in every way and was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay. It’s clear he really understands dog behavior; he knew exactly how to read our anxious dog’s needs and adjust accordingly, which gave us so much peace of mind. On top of that, he’s genuinely a super nice person! We’d highly recommend Nathan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pets!”

About: Took care of my senior Yorkie that lived to be 15. She passed this spring and is missed dearly. Currently have a 7 year loving/clingy cat that I adore. I’ve been raising him since 6 weeks old. I work second shift so my mornings are free during the week. Free to care for your pets until noon and my weekends are typically open. I can spend time with your fur baby if you are home often and check-in as needed. I’m available to be a sitter and make sure they aren’t lonely for too long.
About: House hippo friendly sitter ready to drop in and care for your pet in the Georgetown area. I live local and can drop in for regular visits or for those last minute occasions. Going away for the weekend? I can stop in as many times a day as you need to keep your dog or cat from being lonely! I am available for multiple drop-ins on weekends and evening pet care on weekdays. I will come to you so your pet is happy and secure in their familiar surroundings. I have many years of experience owning and caring for pets from puppy all the way to senior with special needs, including large and small breed dogs.
About: From Chinchillas to Chow chows, I have cared for them all both professionally and personally for over the last decade. Whether I need to administer medication or comfort during a thunderstorm storm, I’m happy to help your furry family member while you’re away. I work part-time right now and have a lot of extra time in between semesters at school. If your pet is comfortable with other dogs, I can also provide boarding at my home. I have a very sweet female dog at home who really enjoys company, dog or cat. If you would like your pet to stay at my home I have a shady and securely fenced yard as well. Your pet will also have their own space as my laundry room has been converted into a kennel area if they prefer their own space. If your pet prefers to stay at home, I have reliable transportation to make multiple visits daily, or if you prefer your pet to have constant company in home, extended stays are an option at your convenience and comfort level.
“Jenn has been such a lifesaver for us, always accommodating when possible for our last minute drop in requests and super easygoing when she stays over to dog/house sit. Diesel is excited each time he sees her which puts me at ease as it’s always hard to leave my baby pup but I know he is in good hands.”
About: I’ve owned 5 dogs, pet sat for a dogs including a senior dog, trained and taken care of my own puppies, and don’t forget also cats! I am fully free to watch any animal at any time, I want this job to benefit me in my career but also as a human being helping you feel comfortable for someone watching your pets. All my dogs are crate trained, knows tons of tricks, and of course spoiled because they deserve it! Although my dogs don’t enjoy little kids very much, it is because they are very protective and unsure, due to my dogs all having a mix of border collie in them. Very protective
“Lillian (Ruthie) took such loving care of my li'l girl Sadie! This was my first time leaving her since a cross country move, and Ruthie helped keep Sadie's routine consistent while giving her a quiet, comfortable environment. She was also wonderfully communicative, trustworthy, and caring. Thank you, Ruthie, and we look forward to having you out again!”
About: A safe, clean home away from home, where every dog is treated like family. With lots of love, personalized attention, and help from my loyal German Shepherd, assistant, Lucy, your pup will feel right at home! But sets me apart from others is I can help crate dogs, potty train, to giving them their meds and walking them with a ginger lead for those elderly ones. I am currently working less than part-time. And for me, there’s no better way to spend that free time than with dogs. I also include them in my daily tasks. Every Dog’s comfort level is respected. I have both large and small crates available for dogs who are crate trained or whose owners prefer scheduled crate time (up to 90 minutes per day). I also use an indoor playpen and separate areas within the home to create healthy boundaries. Allow for quiet rest periods and ensure all dogs remain comfortable and safe. My goal is to provide personalized care, maintain each dog routine as closely as possible, and create a calm, loving environment, where pets feel secure, happy and part of the family while you’re away. It might be cliché, but I treat every dog as if it was my own.
“Charles has been a great sitter to my dog. I travel for work and having someone as caring as Charles has been a blessing. He’s polite, compassionate, & always willing to help me out last minute (as my job crazy like that & I don’t always have someone to help me with Daisy.) Thank you Charles!!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Jonah is $49 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $41 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Jonah 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 Jonah 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 Jonah 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.
