About: I have about six years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I currently have three cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with everything that goes into daily cat care, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, giving them attention, and also knowing when they need their own space. Having three cats with different personalities has definitely taught me how different every pet can be and how important it is to adjust to what makes each one comfortable. I also grew up with multiple dogs, so I’ve been around dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities for most of my life. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I’ve also cared for other people’s pets while they were out of town, including doing regular drop-in visits and making sure their pets had everything they needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well taken care of. I’m very attentive to instructions and routines, and I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I treat other people’s pets the same way I would want someone to treat my own. I work full-time during the week, but I still have availability for pet care before and after work, as well as on weekends. I’m used to balancing a busy schedule and taking care of my own three cats every day, so caring for animals is already a normal part of my routine. I’m happy to work with pet parents to plan drop-ins, walks, feeding times, and other care around their pet’s normal schedule. I’ll always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking so I can make sure I have enough time to give your pets the attention they deserve. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow any instructions left for feeding, walks, medications, litter boxes, potty breaks, and anything else your pet needs. I’m very respectful of other people’s homes and make sure doors, gates, and crates are secured before I leave. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can tell if something seems different or if they need extra attention. I know trusting someone with both your pets and your home is a big deal, so I always want owners to feel comfortable and know their pets are safe and well cared for.

About: Hi there! I’m looking forward to giving your dog a safe, fun, and comfortable home away from home. With over 10 years of personal experience caring for dogs, I understand exactly how important peace of mind is when you are away. Because I work from home several days a week, your pup will get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and frequent companionship throughout the day.

My home features a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to stretch, play fetch, and explore safely. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I am completely comfortable with all sizes and breeds. I am dedicated to keeping your dog's regular routine intact, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I work from home several days a week, your pup will get plenty of attention.

About: Greetings pet lovers! I’m a friendly, loving, and laid back person here to help anyone with their pet needs. I’ve been caring for pets since I was little boy. That’s over 20 years of experience! Anything a pet needs I can handle from walks, drop ins, house visits and companionship. I treat all animals just like I would treat my own kids. Firm believer in, Pet Lives Matter too! We have to defend animals in this cruel world, because unfortunately they can defend themselves on a political level. Pet lovers across the world need to recognize this and stand up for pets because they can’t stand up for themselves and voice their opinion. I would love to help you if you need it, anytime I’m available.

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.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the dedication I bring to their care. I’m a proud dog mom to my Aussie, Cami, and I treat every pup like family. I love going on nature walks, incorporating training and enrichment into our time, and making sure each dog feels safe, happy, and understood. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or sticking to their routine, I give every dog the same care and attention I give Cami, because they deserve nothing less. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I work remotely from home 100% Monday to Fridays and I am usually home on weekends, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. I offer boarding at any time, and I already care for my own energetic 3-year-old Australian Shepherd, Cami. She’s spayed, service dog trained, and absolutely loves other dogs, she’s the perfect playmate! Caring for pets is already part of my everyday life, and I truly love it. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. At my home, pets get plenty of love, playtime, and attention. I provide a clean, cozy environment with space to play, rest, and relax. I stick to their feeding schedules, give them potty breaks, and ensure they get daily walks or outdoor time especially with my Aussie, Cami, who’s always ready for a buddy! If I’m caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep things consistent by following your instructions closely; from feeding and potty breaks to playtime, walks, and any medications. I always respect your space and treat your home with care.

About: Hello! I’m JoAnna👋🏼 I know how difficult it is to decide to leave your fur babies with somebody new, but my goal is to assure your pups will be in a safe, loving home. I will treat your pups like they’re my own sweet little angels! 😇 I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special needs they may have. I feel comfortable giving any medication that may be needed. Also, giving them the extensive amount of love they need🥰 I’m also an aspiring dog groomer 🐩🛁 a service I can provide for you if you’d like! Prices can be discussed by each pet & needs. 🐾 Boarding Clients - Drop Off/Pick Up Times 🐾 • Preferred Drop Off Time - Anytime after 7AM • Preferred Pick Up Time - Anytime before 9PM I normally wake up around 8AM to take my dogs out into our little backyard or if it’s not too hot- take them on a little walk. Then I feed them. I do scheduled meals for my pups or else my Golden Retriever will eat all the food 😅 throughout the day, we’ll play with toys, cuddle, run around in the backyard, take naps. Around 5pm-ish, I give them their dinner. Of course depending on if your pup has a specific routine, I’ll work around what best for their needs 😊 I have a fenced little yard. I have a huge field of grass across the way that I let my own dogs run around in. I do have a kennel if it is needed for your dog’s comfort. If your dog is bell trained, I do have bells to let me know if they need to go potty outside the hours I take them potty. I have several dog beds & blankets & dog bowls. Several healthy dog treats! 😊

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and grew up with pets, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have experience with both dogs and cats of all sizes, from small dogs to larger breeds, and I currently have a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own. One thing that sets me apart is that I work from home most of the time, which gives me a lot of flexibility and allows me to be very present with the pets in my care. Whether I’m doing drop-ins or boarding, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, affection, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. My goal is for your pet to feel as comfortable and loved with me as they do at home. When I’m available for pet sitting, boarding, or drop-in visits, I make sure I’m not working so I can give the pets in my care plenty of time and attention. For boarding stays, I’m available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and companionship. I love being able to spend the day with them rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time, and I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I take pet safety and comfort very seriously and always do my best to make sure each pet feels secure, relaxed, and at home. I have a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own, so I’m very familiar with caring for different personalities and making sure everyone has the space and attention they need. For pets staying in my home, I supervise interactions, follow their normal feeding and walking routines, and make sure they get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate any specific instructions, routines, medications, or preferences you have for your pet. For drop-ins or care in your home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible. I’ll keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Chelsey took the time to get to know our dog, her play and food habits, and she makes sure Maggie is loved for the entire visit. My fiance and I loved meeting Chelsey so we booked weekly recurring visits to help Maggie have more fun when we are at work.”

About: Along with having three dogs currently (ranging ages) of my own and volunteering/fostering at various animal shelters in my life, I have a love for getting to know each individual personality of every animal. I have a very calm and loving disposition that really helps ease animals while also keeping a standard of discipline and training. I have a fairly open availability before I’m back at TXST for the new semester. I am very physically active so I appreciate animals that require walk or play! I love to keep up with them… or at least try. I have a large backyard with plenty of open space. I recognize other pets might not always get along with my own so I utilize all the senses slowly to acclimate all animals to eachother. At other people’s home I greatly appreciate extensive rules and notes on the pet and home to ensure I care for everything accordingly.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Mahshad provided for my Sphynx cat, Zehra, while I was away. From the very beginning, she impressed me with her kindness and professionalism. She came over for a meet-and-greet beforehand, and my cat—who can be a bit particular—took to her immediately. It was clear she has a special way with animals. Every day, Mahshad sent me detailed updates with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even noticed a small scab on Zehra’s skin—something common for the breed due to scratching—and brought it to my attention. This level of attentiveness and care showed me she was genuinely invested in my cat’s health and well-being. On top of that, I felt completely comfortable and confident having Mahshad in my home. She is incredibly respectful and trustworthy, which made the whole experience stress-free. I’m so happy to say I’ve found Zehra’s forever cat sitter! I will absolutely be going back to Mahshad for future services. She treated my cat with so much love, as if she were her own, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and detail-oriented sitter.”

About: 🐾 Four cats of my own, a huge love for dogs, and plenty of room for more furry friends! As a pet parent myself, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and little quirks. Whether your dog wants to play fetch until their legs give out or your cat prefers to supervise me from across the room, I’m here for it! 😂 One of the biggest perks of booking with me is that I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule! This allows me to accommodate different pet care needs and work around your pets’ routines whenever possible. Your babies deserve more than someone who just shows up, fills a bowl, and disappears! I’m big on keeping things clean, maintaining consistent feeding routines, respecting each pet’s boundaries, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a cat mom of four, I know how important it is to pay attention to the little details, and I’m just as excited to spoil your pups with attention, playtime, and walks! You can expect reliable communication, photo updates, and plenty of reassurance that your pets are in good hands. My goal is simple: happy pets, stress-free humans, and enough photos to make you wonder if your pets even miss you. 🐶🐱❤️ Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom of four, so you could say pets already run my household! 😂🐾 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes pet sitting a natural fit for my lifestyle. I love having the opportunity to spend time with animals throughout my day, whether that means taking dogs on walks, playing with energetic pups, keeping cats company, or giving a shy kitty the space they need to feel comfortable. I’m happy to incorporate pet care into my daily routine and make sure your fur babies get plenty of attention while you’re away. Having four cats of my own has taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s unique personality, respect their boundaries, maintain consistent routines, and keep their spaces clean. I know that trusting someone with your pets is a big deal, and I want you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for like family. Since I work from home, I can offer flexibility when scheduling visits and walks, depending on your pet’s needs and my availability. I’m also happy to provide photo updates so you can see what your babies are up to while you’re away! Whether your pet is a playful pup, a cuddly cat, or a little diva who thinks they own the place (no judgment, I live with four of them 😂), I’d love to meet them! Your pets get a caring, reliable sitter, and I get to spend my day doing something I genuinely love. It’s a win win! ❤️🐾 My approach to pet care is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around pet visits, walks, feeding times, and playtime! For care in your client’s home: I prioritize keeping your pets on their usual schedule, whether that means morning walks, scheduled meals, playtime, litter box maintenance, or simply keeping them company. I respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention while you’re away. I also provide photo updates so you can see how your babies are doing! For dogs: I love incorporating walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention based on each dog’s energy level and personality. Whether your pup is adventurous and energetic or prefers leisurely walks and couch time, I’ll adapt to their needs. For cats: As a cat mom of four, I’m familiar with the importance of clean litter boxes, consistent feeding routines, and respecting each cat’s individual personality. Some cats want all the attention, while others need time to warm up, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your care instructions, and make sure your fur babies get the love and attention they deserve. ❤️🐶🐱

About: I have grown up around cats my whole life. I have helped take of them but recently I adopted a 3 month old puppy so I am learning there. My professional experience is limited to dog sitting friends pets! Which I have done 10 or so times in the last 5 years I am working part time but during the school year I will not be working. I am a masters Student at UTD so I am available all week expect for when I am in classes Tuesday and Thursday. For my puppy I have set up the bathroom to be a play room. I have a crate for her where she sleeps at night that. Other than that I take her on walks so when she is ready to go to the dog park I will take her. I will be able to crate anyone’s dogs!

We've been working with Sierra for 5 months now, and she is fantastic. She checks on our dogs during the day when we're at work. She's been so good with all the animals; she plays with our high-energy, 80lb GSD puppy and takes out our little old man, who's 9lb and 15.5 years old, so she covers quite the range with our dogs. Sierra is great to communicate with, has been really responsive and collaborative on booking times. She even goes above and beyond and grabs packages when she sees them, which is not something we expect, but I think speaks to her character. I highly recommend Sierra if you're looking for someone to watch your pets.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Jonestown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Jonestown is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $35 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 7,092 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Jonestown. 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 Jonestown 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 Jonestown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jonestown. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
