“Sarah was a wonderful sitter for our cat and our house. Our cat is elderly, special needs and Sarah took extra time to make sure she was loved and cared for. The house was in perfect condition when we got home - better than when we left it! Communication was very good. We got daily pictures and updates. Highly recommended!”

“Christina did a wonderful job with our two dogs. She took such good care of them and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy. She sent lots of updates and pictures to let us know how everyone was doing. Christina also took very good care of our home. I’d recommend her for anyone needing a reliable, responsible, caring pet/house sitter.”

About: I have always loved animals, with a special place for pets. I’ve long been in charge of my family’s dog care and also adopted the role of dog walker for several roomates and friends. You could say I enjoy the walk as much as your dog! I’m working full time in the mornings and afternoons. In my time after work I usually take walks, go to the gym, or find time for my other hobbies. I pride myself in being a quality pet owner and caretaker. When providing for my own or others animals, I always make an effort to minimize stressors and gain trust. Every pet has their own temperament and I will find it and match it for them. I’m also in shape and capable of carrying small and larger dogs a good distance in case of emergencies.

About: Hello, I am Lindsey and I have always been an animal lover. I live with in walking distance to Depot Park, the Hawthorne trail and the Sweetwater reserve , and find any excuse to get outside the oeerfect opportunity . I am available to keep up with an energetic dog, or to spend some down time with dogs who are more comfortable relaxing. When dog sitting I will be taking your pup out 2-3 MINIMUM a day. I love to take pictures and videos to send to owners. I will disclose my personal number to those who book with me, and will always keep my phone on. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you have any questions or would like to check in. I’m fully available to make sure you and your dog(s) feel comfortable and safe. I have 17 plus years of experience. I have owned many dogs of different ages and size. In addition I have been surrounded by many pup puppies over the years. I’ve gained practice for all personality types as well. I’ve experienced dogs with anxiety/low self confidence that need extra love and patience. I am a total animal lover in general, and would be pleased to provide a happy place to stay. I do ask that you provide food for your pets to maintain a regular diet. I may charge an additional $1/hr after reaching the 24 hour mark for pickup if boarding is 1-2 days. SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

About: I have always had a dog in my home and have grown up with many different breeds of dogs/animals. I have owned horses, cats, and reptiles and am comfortable with animals of all sorts and familiar with the care that they need. I am also good with older dogs and have enough patience to deal with young puppies. I have experience with dogs that have medical needs and I know how to administer a lot of different medications. I am up early and can walk dogs/ check in on pets before I head to work. I am also free most evenings and on the weekends. My senior dog recently passed so I do not currently have any dogs in my home. I do have a fenced in courtyard but I prefer house sitting as this is usually easier for the animals in the home.

About: I love dogs and cats of all kinds and I will happily spend all day playing with yours! I have had dogs and cats since birth so I have experience with all steps of raising a pet. I'm well known for my belly rub and bum scratching skills and am excellent at playing fetch and just running around with your dog. My large car allows me to take dogs of all sizes on trips to the local dog park if it's not walking distance or to the vet if needed. I also love baking so don't be surprised if you come home to treats for you and your dog! I currently work full time but would be available evenings, mornings, weekends, and holidays. My job is a little flexible, so if you have a specific schedule in mind let's chat. I'm able to travel to your home so your little guy or gal can feel super comfortable in their home environment. I'll do whatever I can to make sure they're not missing you too much!

About: Hello! I have been an animal lover/owner all my life. I currently have a pup named Page who is a year and 2 months old and a previous pet Mia, who was epileptic and took daily medications to thrive. This helped to build my love and patience for pets! We enjoy going for car drives, exploring new trails, and beach days when the weather permits. I know that there can be angst when it comes to having to book a pet sitter as I too just started using the service. I have met some amazing pet care givers and decided I would love to try my hand since I have had so many years of experience with puppies, cats and adult dogs. My home space is very peaceful. I have a back yard that is fenced in for play time or just to sun bathe. I am also open to coming to your home for your convenience. If you have any questions or would like to have a phone call feel free to message me :) I work from home so I am blessed with the ability to be very hands on with my pet (and yours!) . We take frequent walks and potty breaks and typically work on a daily set schedule yet we are very flexible. I have a fenced backyard for potty breaks, play and sun bathing. I also have a spare bedroom in which I have a medium size cage, and other pet materials. You are more than welcome to bring your own cage and or any items that your pet would love to have in your absence.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, I had two Weiner dogs and now a Yorkie. Also one cat. I have dog sat many times for all kinds of dogs, not ever in this way but through family, and friends of family who have recommended me. I also love to play and I take caution in feeding dogs as mine has some allergies so I am very careful. I currently am in school so I have class Monday- Thursday. Tuesdays and Thursdays after 2 I am free and Fridays and Sundays as well. My dog does not go in a crate. But I am aware of how to dispose of trash, walk dogs, let them out and play and clean up.

FAQs for House Sitting - Jonesville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Jonesville on Rover is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $80 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 462 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jonesville. 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 Jonesville 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 Jonesville 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Jonesville 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 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.

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

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
