“Alaina was great! She took the boys for some walks, one got muddy and she bathed him, and one also got an upset stomach one day in the house. She cleaned it all up and made sure he was good to go. She really did well with my furry kids. I will use her again whenever I am in need of someone to trust with them.”
“Brooke was so wonderful with my pets!! She sent so many wonderful pictures and kept me updated on what was going on. She was so sweet and great to work with. I am so excited to book her again for future pet watching needs!”
About: Hi, I’m Jordyn. I am 26 years old with an Bachelor of Science degree. I have a passion of caring for animals. I have 1 dog named Leo, he is an American Staffordshire Pitbull. I’ve had him since 2020 when he was 3 months old. I have been dog sitting for 6 years now. I have experience working in a dog daycare for 3 years. My additional duties working in a dog daycare involved keeping the kennels clean of waste, dog fur, stray food and water, and other material that keep dogs from being comfortable away from their owners. I enjoy being able to play and have fun with dogs. While walking your dog I will make sure he/she stays dehydrated throughout the summer/winter. Feel free to contact me about any questions you have or concerns and times that I am available to care. Thank you! Feeding: Start the day by feeding pets according to their specific dietary needs and specific feeding times through out the day. Exercise: Take dogs for a morning/afternoon walk or engage them in playtime. 1. Feeding: Ensure pets are fed according to their specific dietary needs. Provide fresh water daily. 2. Exercise: Take dogs for regular walks or play with them to keep them active. For cats, engage them with toys or provide space for climbing and exploration. 3. Safe Environment: Remove any hazards from the home, such as toxic plants, chemicals, or small objects that could be swallowed. 4. Attention and Affection: Spend quality time with pets to meet their social needs. This can include petting, playing, or simply sitting together. 5. Follow Client Instructions: Adhere to any specific care instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding schedules and preferences. 6. Communication: Maintain open communication with clients about their pet’s well-being and any concerns that arise.
“Reyna was wonderful! She sent several pictures of the dogs each day along with a daily recap. The house was left in wonderful condition! We will definitely use her again.”
“Couldnt be happier with Grace. She was a great communicator, always sending pictures and updates. I felt super comfortable with her taking care of my pup throughout my whole trip. I’ll definitely be coming back to her for future pup needs!”
“We cannot overstate how excellent Robert was for us. It's immediately clear when meeting Robert that he values our dogs as his own. Robert was very flexible and exceeded our expectations, despite the challenges of handling the care of our multiple dogs.”
About: I have watch friends and family’s dogs as well as on Rover for over 10 years. I love all the floofy dogs and love going on long walks and going to the dog park. Your furry friend will be in great hands with Kaia (my baby) and I. I am currently not working and have all the time in the world to watch your sweet pup. I have availability currently 24/7 to watch your family pet closely. I would treat your dog like they are part of the family. Kaia is truly my firstborn and she is more than spoiled. She loves activity so we will go for all the walks and play fetch or hide and seek.
“Cassie always goes above and beyond with house sitting and watching my animals. This is the second year we have used her for any and all house/dog/cat sitting requests and she has never once let us down. We so appreciate her attentiveness to the animals, respect to our home, and love she gives to our animals. The pictures at the end of the day are always a plus. I always recommend Cassie to anyone looking for an animal sitter.”
“I waited until the very last minute to book sitter for my 3 dogs and two cats. Ansley was able to squeeze me in and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She routinely checked in and sent me pictures of how the fur babies were doing each time. I will definitely use her again!”
“Nick took care of our home and our dogs with very short notice. He took great care of everything. I would definitely recommend and will be happy to have him look after everything again.”
“Autumn did great. She came and met my furry babies prior to sitting. Cairo is very timid, but he warmed up to her fairly quickly, and Siberia loves attention . Autumn also periodically sent pictures and communicated with me on how they were doing. I am definitely going to use her again. Thank you Autumn.”
“Nichelle was a blessing !!! While my husband & I were on vacation in Mexico my phone WOULD NOT WORK !! (hubby forgot his UGH !) My phone would not call out or text. Thank God we were able to communicate through Rover. Nichelle was great with sending pictures and updates everyday. Our home and babies were great when we returned. We would highly recommend Nichelle’s services. Would love to use her again if need be.”
“Jacob is hands-down, an amazing dog sitter! We never had to worry a bit. He always went above and beyond. And always kept us updated! I highly recommend him. And I don’t like to give such high recommendations because then maybe he might not be available for me next time lol. But please use Jacob, if you are ever in need of a dog sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a small child. I enjoy making sure your pets have a great time with me. I currently work from home during the day but am able to come by in the mornings and late afternoon/evening. If you have alternative plans while I work such as a friend or family member stopping by, that is okay with me. I do not work weekends so I am 100% free those days as well. If this is your first booking, use my discount code to save $20! It is BLAKET69308 I will ensure that the pets don’t go outside alone. I will ensure they have all the food and water and treats they need per your instructions.
“Great communication and updates on how the stay was going. Katie made Buddy feel safe in his space and she cared for our home like it was her own! I will be using Katie again as she feels like family.”
About: I’ve always been a big dog lover! I have worked as a kennel technician between 2021-2024 and the experience was amazing. To add I also have a senior (12) and a middle age dog (7) of my own. I love to take care of them. I am working full time Monday-Thursday with the availability of free evenings. I am fully available Friday-Sunday for dog walking and/or dog-sitting. I currently live in an apartment with two reactive pets. I would prefer to dog-sit as it would be safer for all pets. I am always gauging unbelonging behavior amongst my dogs.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She took wonderful care of our dogs and our home while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. Reliable, caring, and trustworthy—we would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Jadyn was very prompt, flexible when our flights got cancelled on the way out and way back in. She took GREAT care of our babies and our home, sending updates, pictures and leaving our home neat and orderly. We highly recommend Jadyn!!”
About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals, so it is much more than just a job to me. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. From energetic dog who needs extra walks and playtime to a cat who prefers a quiet visit, fresh food, and space to warm up on their own terms. With multiple years of pet-sitting experience, I’m comfortable handling daily feeding and fresh water, walks and exercise, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication when needed, basic cleanup, overnight routines, and plenty of affection and reassurance while you’re away. My flexible schedule allows me to work with a variety of care needs, including daytime drop-ins, walks, extended visits, overnight stays, and last-minute requests when availability allows. I know how important it is to keep pets on their normal schedule and keep owners updated, so you can relax knowing your animals are safe, happy, and cared for like family. I also bring professional dog-grooming experience and training to every visit. Working as a groomer has taught me how to read dog body language, safely handle dogs with different temperaments, and help even nervous pets feel more comfortable. I have experience working with a variety of breeds, and sizes. My grooming background gives me an extra level of confidence in recognizing when a dog may be stressed, uncomfortable, or simply needs a little extra patience. I specialize in working with high anxiety or animal with special needs. My goal is to provide dependable, loving, and personalized care that fits both your pet’s needs and your schedule. I currently work part time as a dog groomer a few days a week. However my schedule allows for a lot of flexibility. I am able to accommodate almost any schedule. I’m comfortable handling daily feeding and fresh water, walks and exercise, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication when needed, basic cleanup, and overnight routines. I can also provide in-home baths and nail trims for dogs with a small additional fee.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Jones on Rover is $27.75 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 830 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jones. 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 Jones 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 Jones 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 Jones 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
