“Timothy came in clutch for a last minute request! He had no problem meeting Aja beforehand, and was very responsive when I reached out. Since we had such a great experience, we’ll definitely be using Timothy’s services again!”
About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds, from hyper, high energy pups that need solid runs to sweet seniors who just want a calm companion. I work from home, so I’m around all day to give them the attention they need, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just hanging out. I am currently working full-time at home from 11 AM to 7:30 PM. I can take breaks at any point to care for your dog. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special care they need. I work from home, so I can provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day.
About: Animal lover here. With me, you know you are getting a service provided that comes from the heart of an animal lover. I will treat your pets like they are my own. 24/7 Pet care I wake up to tend to pets, I eat with pets, I have fun with pets, I treat pets with care like they’re my own. If boarding, your dog must be inside trained and not aggressive. Your pet must get along with other pets. No meanies. All pets are welcomed for boarding as long as they come with a crate and their food.
About: I have over 21 years experience caring for dogs and cats. Through my volunteer work at animal shelters and pet sitting for family and friends I have developed an understanding for pet care needs. I currently have open availability for drop ins for early mornings and late nights to accommodate for 3rd shift. I am avaliable on weekends and some holidays for drop ins and walks but, unfortunately at the moment I'm not available for over night stays or boarding. My schedule is open for most of the day except between 4PM-8PM during the week. When sitting in your home I ensure your pets safety and follow all your care routines. I make sure your fur baby is well taken care of and loved.
“I have such amazing things to say about Marisa!! First of all she is just a great person! Second off, I have a very stubborn 6 year old German shepherd that is extremely protective of his home and somewhat standoffish at first. We had a meet and greet a few days before our trip and max seemed to like her so we felt confident it would work out. After several treats and a few visits max warmed right up to her and now they are best buds! She took her time and got to know the big sweet boy underneath his stubbornness lol! We will definitely be rebooking with her every time we are out of town! I recommend her 1000%!”
“Aaniyah was great with my babies ! She communicated very well with me regarding the visits and treated my babies with love and care. I was at ease on my trip knowing my babies loved their sitter and was in good hands. Definitely recommend Aaniyah!”
“Thank you so much for looking after my dog. This is the first week, and he had a rough week, but it seems like he has adjusted to you well! We will continue this relationship!”
About: I fell in love with dogs since the age of 4 after being terrified from my first encounter. But after a few more curiosity approaches, I went from being afraid to loving every dog I came across from walks and loving every dog I came across even on the roads. No matted fur or patches will stop me from giving it affection (ask my girlfriend about the dogs I pet on our trips lol) Any moods the fur baby gives I try to match so we both can say (or bark) “yeah this was a great day…now what about treats!” Tend to every need I can, have bathed my own fur baby but no experience with nail trimming (not forcing to do something they don’t like) and always love seeing that wide smiles either from play or from my belly scratches! Working full time so will really be available on every other weekend with some days in the week. Just message me and I’ll let you know my availability! Never want to miss meeting another fur-ones! Constant monitor when at play in case someone decides to eat something they had no business. Will always check area for random loose trash that might look to appetizing for the fur baby. We’re not getting no upset tummies in this (or your) household!
“Mical you’ve been a wonderful visitor and helper to keep Midnight while away on our long trip. Thank you for all your help! Will definitely be booking again in the future. Happy New Year!”
“Lanae did drop-in visits for 4 days for our 3 kitties. She did such a great job! We received photos and updates daily on how our babies were doing. She fed them, played with them and cuddled wit them, as well as changed their litter box daily. She communicated everything really well and was super nice and friendly. The cats seemed happy when I got home and I didn’t need to immediately tend to one of their chores before I was able to spend some time with them. We plan to have Lanae do drop-in visits for us again in a few weeks so we can be at ease that our kitties will be just as happy!”
“Amazing dog walker! Came in on short notice and saved me while I was out of town. If you’re in need of an amazing dog walker, that can handle any type of dog, this is the one you’re looking for! Will definitely be using her services from now on!”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, including pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to provide personalized attention, exercise, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, attentive, and communicative so pet parents can feel confident their pets are in caring hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, companionship, or overnight care, I strive to maintain their normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care. I respond promptly to messages and provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, maintain a clean and secure environment, and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. I take time to build trust with every animal, ensure they receive plenty of supervision, and provide updates throughout their stay. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to create a calm, loving experience.
“Jennifer was a God-send. I had an issue with a sitter who mistakenly locked my dogs in the house and then changed her booking so she would not have to return. Jennifer stepped in and assisted me while I had to dispatch a locksmith. She followed instructions to the T! I was able to enjoy the rest of my trip because I had become increasingly panicked. My pets loved her as well, and she was able to get them to eat. They play so much sometimes they forget to eat! I will most definitely book her again!!!!”
“Sherry is amazing!! By fur baby enjoyed Sherry catering for him. I was very satisfied. She acceptes the job a day before my unscheduled trip. I appreciated that. I recommend Sherry to everyone.. Thank you Sherry!”
“5 Stars! Darayell is absolutely amazing with my dog, Bryxx! From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She keeps me updated with messages and adorable photos, which made me feel so at ease Bryxx clearly feels comfortable and loved — happy, calm, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the attention and affection she gives him. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Darayell again. Highly recommend!”
“Heather was able to fulfill a last minute two day request! She was one time, professional, caring, and very detailed oriented when it came to our fur baby!!!! We are looking forward to hiring her in the future! She absolutely loved Gizmo and his grumpy old man ways!”
“Jetaun was amazing!!!! The dogs warmed up to her and was happy to see her when she arrived. She is professional, prompt, courteous, and gentle with my fur babies. I Highly recommend her and I will be using her from now on.”
About: Lifetime of experience with dogs and cats, 5 years of furster care for puppies (training, love, and preparing them for their forever homes), and puppy love. I work full time, but making sure they start and end their day with love is important. Walks in the evening and weekend adventures are options. I have a fenced in yard for watching my parents animals. My own never miss a day of snuggles and play. If your furbaby stays at my home it will need to be cat friendly and would be safe downstairs where there is plenty of room to play. Giving all animals a safe space.

Everything went great with Remi’s drop-in visits! Emily took wonderful care of our big boy and did an excellent job keeping us updated throughout each visit. She shared plenty of adorable pictures and videos, which we really appreciated and loved receiving. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
Betty took great care of our two cats. She also did a great job communicating, letting us know if she was going to be a bit late to a check-in and even sending pictures of proof of cleaning the litter boxes 🙂. She also made friends with our less social cat, which was wonderful to see!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Jonesboro is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $23 per visit. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 5,618 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Jonesboro. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jonesboro. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
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.
