“My very active doggy immediately connected with Allison and Allison kept up with her energy level. That’s not easy! I would definitely call upon her again if I’m going out of town.”
“Whitney was very attentive to our dog's needs. It was reassuring to receive daily updates and photos. We came home to a happy, calm dog which is the true test of her time with Whitney. We would contact her in the future.”
“Elizabeth is wonderful! She housesat for us and our pets for 5 days and took great care of everyone and everything! She sent us updates and photos and we felt confident that we'd found just the right person for us and our dogs. That all meant we could really enjoy our vacation. Our dogs were happy and even playful with each other (pretty great for older dogs!). They loved her and were not perturbed at all that we'd left them... not even sure they even missed us (haha!). She is experienced, comfortable with animals, intuitive and very smart. As empty-nesters, our dogs are our kids and we knew they were in excellent hands with Elizabeth. She took perfect care of our house, too! We recommend her so highly and you can be sure that during your time away from home, your pets will be cared for beautifully!”
“Jenna was great, arrived promptly.Communicated well. She took pictures, walked my teacups, gave them treats. I felt very comfortable leaving my teacup Yorkies w her. Would definitely ask her to pup sit again.”
“Charlotte took great care of my dog while I was away! My pup can be nervous with new people and takes a bit to warm up and she loved Charlotte! She was calm and happy when I got home! Will definitley book again!”
“We were very happy with the house-sitting service Matt provided. He responded quickly to our initial inquiry and communicated well regarding the meet & greet and all during the stay. He asked good questions and obviously cares for animals and wants them to be happy with the routine they are used to. He sent updates and photos and also communicated when he arrived and before he departed. In addition, he's just an overall very nice and professional person which put any anxieties I would've had, aside. I would highly recommend reaching out to Matt.”
About: My pet sitting experience began 15 years ago when I was the neighborhood go-to for walking and feeding pets. That transitioned to in-home care experience in my neighborhood and beyond. My most valuable experiences comes from my own family dog. She had many quirks from being rescued, and from her I have ample of first hand experience on how to handle dogs that do not get along with other people or dogs. I am currently available 7 days a week, and am available from early morning to late night. I am currently between jobs and am flexible on care time and needs. I find joy in meeting your dog's needs- whether they have energy to burn or need cuddles on the couch, I aim to provide a caring and respectful presence for your dog. If staying in a client's home, I treat their space with respect and cleanliness.
About: I have experience working with dogs of all ages, l’m comfortable administering medications—I definitely have a soft spot for dogs with special needs! I have three dogs of my own and always travel with my smallest one, Meera, a 9lb chi mix who is very quiet and well behaved. I work at a doggie daycare four days a week so Friday through Sunday I’d be out of the house for about 8 hours a day. I am the lucky mama of three sweet rescue dogs named Jelly Bean, Frankie, and Meera. They are highly socialized due to the nature of my work and they join me for house sitting and pet care. A typical day includes frequent potty breaks/play sessions outside followed by low-energy training and relaxation, inside or out (weather dependent).
“Holly did a great job watching our dogs. She was confident, patient and communicated very well with us. She left our house in great shape and we’d love to work with her again in the future!”
“Beatrice was so sweet with our 2 little pups. They took to her right away, and when we returned, they seemed to be very comfortable with her! We will certainly reach out to her on our next visit to Burlington. Thanks!”
“Rachel was amazing! She was really sweet and easy to talk to. Nemo was extremely comfortable with her and we received tons of photos! Rachel also played a treat scavenger hunt around the apartment with Nemo which he loved. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Sophie stayed with our Border Collie and 2 cats while we were gone and she was truly wonderful. She gave our pup good long walks and her calm presence even managed to coax our very skittish cat to come out of hiding. She sent lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. We don't leave the animals often, so when we do, it's very comforting to know that they're in good hands. She also left the house in perfect shape. We highly recommend Sophie!”
About: I am a life-long animal lover who has cared for pets for as long as I can remember. In fact, I could think of nothing I would rather do than devote my life to animal health and well-being, so I became a veterinarian! I am no longer in clinical practice, as I now focus on wildlife population health; however, I retain my love of creatures great and small and appreciate the opportunity to provide in-home care to your beloved dogs and other pets. I otherwise miss the snuggles, as I do not currently have pets of my own! I know the value of the human-pet bond, and I strive to give the highest quality care. I am comfortable caring for pups with special needs or any number of other critters (cats, birds, reptiles, rabbits, rodents, etc.). My only limitation is that I am at work full-time during the day, so I would not be suitable for animals needing mid-day care on a daily basis.
“Melissa was wonderful! She stayed at our place for two nights and took very good care of our dog and our house. Was promt and good at communication with sending photos and updates. She loves the outdoors so if that's what your hoping for look no further!”
“Kristen was right on time! We had a nice meet and greet with Bruno. She was very sweet and gentle with Bruno. He is timid because we just rescued him last year. We are working on him to trust her. Definitely will have her back.”
“Hans did a fantastic job taking care of my elderly Shih tzu, needing two different eye drops twice a day. He also tried to make tempting meals for her when her appetite was low. He sent me great pictures almost every day which set my mind at ease. I could not recommend anyone more highly than Hans.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jonesville
The best. We've had a number of folks house/pet sit in the past, but no one as engaged, down-to-earth, friendly, communicative, responsible, and just plain thoughtful as Anna. With her own dog along for the ride, Anna stayed with our dog and cat at the house here and took care of everything--not as a guest, but as we would have. Maybe better. (Okay, better.) In the end, really, leaving your pets in the care of another person isn't about the number of scoops of kibble or where the poop bags go. It's about trust. When we first met Anna, she immediately came across as a friend to trust. She of course proved herself in spades. We feel lucky to have found you! Thank you so much, Anna!

FAQs for House Sitting - Jonesville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 421 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.
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 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 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.
