“Yolanda did an excellent job keeping Evan at the very last moment’s notice. I felt assured and comfortable with her and knew she would take great care of my fur baby. She was wonderful and I will definitely use her services again.”
About: I have had animals around me since I was literal baby, only in the last 8 or so years have I really got involved in taking care of the fur babies. I will need some notice but am home schooled so I can work from basically anywhere and I can’t work every week because I have my own kitty. My mom is a dog breeder and we constantly have puppies who have weak immune system’s and can’t be around other animals so I can not sit your animal in my home only in the clients house

Also completely ok with smaller "cage" pets (mice, ferrets, guines pigs, hamsters, etc.) I currently work part time Wednesday-Friday 9-2. But am available to go care for your pets before work, and of course hours after work as well up to 3 times a day. Mondays, Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays I am completely open to whatever schedule im needed for your pets care. I can easily feed and water your dog(s), walk them, love on them and give attention, as well as crate them. I can also give baths if dogs are comfortable with baths.

“Katherine is a blessing. We left our trio of furbabies for a night and they were very well taken care of during our trip. We have already booked her for two more house sittings!!”
About: Growing up we had 5 dogs and I’ve never looked back. I have watched friends and family inpets while on vacation, taken them on walks/hikes, and just dropped by to let them out or feed them during the day. I’ll treat your pet like my own while I’m with them and communicate with you plus photos (everyone likes to get a picture of their pet happy) I am currently a stay at home mom whose son is in school. We are looking to make an extra income to support vacations and activities. I currently have open availability as my husband can help with my son. I currently have 3 dogs (2 dachshunds and a boxer mix) at home with a fenced in yard. We do have crates if they need to be put up at all. I am available to come to your house as well to dog sit if needed!
About: I worked at a vet clinic for a couple of years. I also worked at a dog training facility for a year. I know it’s hard to leave your fur baby behind but I can promise you that they will be safe and definitely loved! I just had a baby and not able to work in the moment. So I’m up early in the morning and up late at night so I’m very flexible! Well I will have to have my baby with me ( just a warning). But I normally treat them as my own. I will walk them every 2-3 hours then I’m there. If the owner has any schedule I follow the schedule or any instructions. I do normally send pictures and videos of the fur baby to the owner and keep them updated with everything.
“Jesse is great with our 3 dogs. We have an older dog who he's even had to carry up and down stairs. He's had great communication with us and left the house clean and the dogs are very happy!”
“Anna took excellent care of my dogs and they were happy and worn out in the best way when I came home. She made sure to come over prior to my trip to visit my dogs and learn their routine. She was so sweet to them and they warmed to her immediately. My house was clean and tidy when I came home which was such a blessing. Would book again.”
“Adreahna was so sweet and took great care of our dogs. We are vacationing in the mountains, and we wanted to spend the day and evening sightseeing. We felt at ease knowing a very sweet sitter was with them! I recommend Adreahna for your pet sitter!”
About: Finding the right words is hard. Especially about myself. I love playing fetch as much as your pup lol somehow animals just understand my wavelength. I have a very flexible schedule to care for any type of pet. I am free to visit during the day even though I do work a full time job. My office is close to home. My home is very private and although I do not have a fenced yard, your pet will have love and attention and lots of nature to enjoy.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and consistency to senior pets who require patience, medication reminders, and a gentler approach. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I provide. I don't just stop by to feed pets and leave—I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether that's a long walk, a game of fetch, cuddle time on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and understand how important communication is when you're trusting someone with your furry family member. I provide regular updates, photos, and peace of mind so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. Services include: • Dog walking • Feeding and fresh water • Litter box cleaning • Playtime and companionship • Potty breaks • Basic medication administration (if applicable) • Regular photo and text updates I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I am doing pet care every day with my own animals. I have two German Shorthaired pointers which require a lot of attention and exercise so I have a lot of experience with high energy breeds. I pay close attention to the needs of your pet and provide companionship and affection, while also caring for their physical needs. Making sure they have plenty of water, food, and playtime. Their well-being is my priority!
“Mckayle was very attentive to our dogs! She was willing to go above and beyond, kept our house in order and took great care of our boys! We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future if we need a house sitter! Thank you Mckayle for doing an amazing job!”
About: Living in the same area for 20 years, I grew up taking care of neighbors and friends pets, from cats and dogs to birds and bunnies. I grew up with two labs, later 3 rescue mutts, a turtle and now I have a cat of my own. I’m experienced in bathing, feeding, and giving medicine to pets. I’ve house sat for 4 years now, taking care of plants, pets, mail and packages. I’m confident in my ability to care for animals of any kind and all levels of care as well as multiple at a time. I currently work park time Thursday-Sunday as a waitress, manager, and bartender and am in online classes. I’m looking to care and tend to pets mostly during the weekdays and mornings. I have a cat of my own so his space is a priority of mine. To ensure that he feels safe and comfortable I prefer to travel to clients homes where the pet being taken care of has everything provided for them. I ask my clients to write out feeding/medicine schedules, what the pet is allowed to have and not have including toys, treats, etc, as well as where they are allowed to be and not be, furniture, carpet, rooms, etc, and what they are allowed and not allowed to do. I ask my clients if their pet has any triggers & what I should expect from the pet, wether the pet be playful and hyper or enjoys sleeping most of the day. I also make sure I have the clients contact information on hand in case of any change in the pets behavior or emergency.
“Heather was amazing! She took such great care of my babies and my house, keeping me updated the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were in loving and capable hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
“We were visiting from out of town, so we weren’t able to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, but we felt comfortable trusting her from our very first phone call. She took great care of our 2 month old puppy, made sure he got plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and naps, and followed our feeding and safety instructions perfectly. She also kept us updated throughout the day with texts, photos, and little check-ins about how he was doing, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy and well loved pup and would absolutely trust her again if we’re in the area in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I currently work at a speciality vet hospital in the anesthesia department and am looking for more time spent on animal care! I work with dogs, cats, bunnies, snakes, and birds on the daily and love each species equally! I will be studying for the MCAT and working a part time job, so I have plenty of time in my schedule for walks, visits, or boarding stays We have a one acre fenced in yard with a doggy door. I already have one pet, a golden retriever who loves all animals. She gets 24hr love, kisses, and care, some may even say she is spoiled!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Yonah on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 248 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Yonah. 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 Yonah 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 Yonah 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 Yonah 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 Yonah. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
