“Tiana did an excellent job caring for our home and our two dogs while we were away. From the very beginning, she was professional, thoughtful, and attentive. She even took the time to meet with us and the dogs before her first day to make sure everyone was comfortable and that she understood our routines and expectations. She even took notes during our conversation which immediately gave us confidence that everything would be handled well. Having someone stay in our home made a huge difference for our dogs since they were able to remain in their familiar environment and seemed much more comfortable. Throughout her stay, Tiana kept us updated with photos and little check-ins, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, our dogs were happy, well cared for, and our home was just as clean and organized as we left it. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Tiana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet and house sitter.”
“Jhada is AMAZING!!! She loved on my little munchkin very well was very attentive and communicative when there was any concern. I’m so glad I was able to travel for work without having to stress. Jhada thank you so much.”
“Kasianay was fantastic! She provided detailed updates and took meticulous care of my fur baby, treating her as though she was her own. I felt very confident that my cat was in excellent hands! She also made sure my place was spic and span before I returned to town. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Sudesna was amazing! She was very communicative, sent plenty of photos and videos, and left my home clean. My dog appeared happy and well cared for when I returned. I will definitely book Sudesna again!”
“Great with multiple dogs Great with dogs who are a bit shy! Didn’t have to check behind her. I was able to enjoy my baby shower in peace without worrying about my babies.”
“Jenny was very communicative, and took great care of our pets! She sent lots of videos and photos of our cat and dog being playful and happy, and we came home to a clean house. Grateful!”
“Highly recommend Olivia and we will definitely use her again!! So caring and really spent some quality time with our dog. He is older and she gave him so much attention and really cared for him. Sent lots of photos and videos. Very communicative… and just such a sweet young lady.”
“Coleman is a phenomenal human. I was incredibly comfortable leaving my pets in their care. Very personable and a comfortable person to be around. I wasn't even concerned with checking in, Coleman has a very trusting energy. I got plenty of updates and everything was taken care and then some! Coleman is very helpful and capable of any task thrown their way, Thank you for being so awesome Coleman!”
“Oh my goodness!!! I don’t have enough nice words to express my gratitude for Heather!! First of all she saved our vacay when my regular sitter bailed at the last minute, then she provided multiple daily updates on how things were going. I have senior (doggie )ladies but I am very particular about their care. She made sure she got it all right. Just fantastic!! When we arrived back home, I think the girls were looking for her-they were not overly excited, so to me that proved they were super comfy with her. She has a very calm and beatifiul spirit and the animals pick up on that. I was very nervous about using a service but we picked the right sitter! We have a number of rescue pups and because I am very particular about their care, we don’t get a chance to vacation much-and when we do we worry about their care when I’m gone, not this time!! My Pups love her, she tidied the house ( we had a packing frenzy before we left) and even fed the visiting deer, she went above and beyond.I WILL BE SURE TO CALL UPON HER AGAIN❤️ SHE IS SUPERB in fact she may become our go to sitter if she’ll accept, 😆 this experience was better than I could have anticipated. Thank you Heather and Rover!!!”
About: I grew up with a chocolate lab and took in two cats in high school. I’ve primarily had cats as pets recently (and have become a master at giving cats pills). I’ve dog sat and cat sat for several friends. I always have a great time watching their home while spending time with their fur babies. I work fully remote for my 9-5 as well so any home with good wifi I can be there the whole working day. I have good experience giving cats pills and liquid medicine. I work remotely so I can work from any home with good wifi. So if your pet gets lonely I can keep them company all day long. For things that require a routine or specific timing, such as medicine, I set alarms and calendar reminders. I love getting a clear list of expectations from the pet owner of how to treat their specific pet. Every pet is unique and I want to make sure I’m caring for your pet in the way best for them! I’ve watched cats that needed three pills in the morning and one at night. I’ve watched dogs with special dietary restrictions where I had to tear up boiled chicken for them. I’ve also watched kitties that just want cuddles all day long and dogs who want to play fetch all day long. I always try to accommodate best I can!
“Sydney was great! It was my dog’s first pet sitter experience and she was patient with him getting used to her, and had good communication throughout the day. He looked like he was having a great time with her. We definitely will book with her again in the future!”
“This is the second time we have used Rachel and we are already getting on her calendar for next time we travel. Barley seems so comfortable around her that it gives us such comfort while being away. She loves our big guy just like we do! Thanks Rachel!”
“Ashley was a wonderful companion to our dog, Delia, and our seven hens! She also provided comfort to us with updates that included photos of their adventures. It gave us so much peace of mind to know Ashley was keeping our anxious pup company in our home.”
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“Oh my goodness! I would give Sherry 10 stars! She was beyond awesome. Our cats absolutely loved her so that really eased our minds while being away. So glad we chose Rover and we're able to meet her!!”
“We have 4 dogs, 2 of which are almost 90lbs and only a year old, with one of the others being 13 and needing medications. Summer handled them all wonderfully and they absolutely adored her (we did too)!! Every picture we got, they were all smiling and happy and snuggling up with her. 10/10 recommend her!”
“Kira kept in touch throughout the process. She did an intro visit to meet the puppies. When we came come from vacation the babies were chill so we know Kira gave them everything they needed. No anxiety, no fuss. Would re-book Kira in a heartbeat”
About: Hourly Avail: M: Anytime AFTER 1:30pm T: Anytime BEFORE 2:30pm W: Anytime AFTER 3pm Th: All day F: Anytime BEFORE 5pm S: Anytime BEFORE 5pm Sun: Anytime AFTER 10am I have been a pet owner of large breed and small breed dogs, as well as cats over the course of my entire life. I’m trained not just in human CPR but also dogs and cats. I’ve cared for terminally ill animals, disabled pets, kittens, and puppies. I’m basically open to all, and look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I am a full time student currently, however, always feel free to message me for inquiries as I can sometimes work with scheduling. Please note my daily hourly availability listed below: M: Anytime AFTER 1:30pm T: Anytime BEFORE 2:30pm W: Anytime AFTER 3pm Th: All day F: Anytime BEFORE 5pm S: Anytime BEFORE 5pm Sun: Anytime AFTER 10am I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a large woodsy trail right in my backyard with plenty of run/walk space for the pups (leashed of course). I also have two cats and a very friendly medium sized dog of my own. For dogs that aren’t cat friendly, I do have space to keep the cats safely separate from the dog. However, I request that dogs boarded will have to be other-dog friendly for the safety of both the dogs and myself.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jonesboro
Ashley was AMAZING with our 2 frenchies. Our trip was last minute so we didn’t have time for a meet and greet. I was nervous our older frenchie might be a bit of a handful at first. Upon her arrival I received pictures of them all snuggled up with her on the couch. She went above and beyond in all ways. Updates and pictures were provided during her in-home stay and she even cleaned up my kitchen (we left in a hurry). So not necessary, but what a treat when we returned. Such a pleasure to have Ashley caring for our fur babies. I’m definitely going to be a repeat customer of hers. A-1

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Jonesboro on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,739 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jonesboro. 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 Jonesboro 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 Jonesboro 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 Jonesboro 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jonesboro. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
