“Ashlyn did I wonderful job of taking care of my cat! Hired her for drop in visits and she did amazing. Very attentive to instructions and great communication. My kitty loved her and I would definitely recommend her/will be using her in the future if I need to!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old, babysitting family and friends dogs along with taking care of my own dogs. I’ve been around them for as long as I can remember! I currently work three 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital, but I am looking to fill my days off with some doggy care! I will care for your dog at your home in the best way that I possibly can! I have a small dog of my own, I treat him as if he’s my child and I will do the same for any and every dog I take care of:)
“Mirabella was really great with our dogs! Some of them usually take a while to warm up to others, but seemed to warm up to her quickly. She also sent us pictures which I really loved!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my whole life and bring a calm, patient vibe to every visit—but I love dogs just as much, so tail wags are always welcome too! I take time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, whether that means cozy cuddles, zoomie-fueled playtime, or just being a reassuring presence while you’re away. Expect plenty of pets, play, fresh food and water, and a sparkling clean litter box for cats—or fun walks, outdoor time, and belly rubs for dogs. Based in Cincinnati, I offer pet sitting and drop-ins across the metro area. My flexible schedule (and free weekends!) means I can stick closely to your pet’s routine. I’m experienced with oral and topical medications and treat every furry friend like my own—because they deserve nothing less 🐾 I'm currently on the hunt for a new Agency position, so my days and weeks are completely free currently. Able to be booked at any time. I tailor my care to each pet and the service you choose, because every animal has their own routine and personality. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and stress-free as possible—sticking closely to feeding schedules, walk routines, and favorite playtime activities. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with fresh food and water, and I keep their spaces clean (litter boxes, food areas, etc.). For dogs, that usually means walks, outdoor time, and lots of play (plus belly rubs, of course). For cats, I match their vibe—whether that’s interactive play or just quiet companionship and gentle pets. I’m also experienced with oral and topical medications and always keep an eye on behavior and health, so I can catch anything unusual early. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, geckos, and fish for years. I love taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. I currently work early in the mornings and certain weekends during December-April. I am available after 3pm most days and I am flexible upon request between 12-3pm. I can crate your dog in home if you’d like after walks or drop in visits. I always make sure your fur baby has access to water at all times and food as instructed by the owners.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old, and love going on walks and spending quality with pups. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for both young puppies and sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I'm currently home full-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pup all of the love and care they need! While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised - either on walks or a secure lead. I will follow your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest, making sure they are safe, happy, and loved. Whether at my home or yours, I treat every pet like family and keep you updated throughout the stay!
About: I love animals so much! I understand how scary it can be to trust someone new with your beloved pets, I have three cats of my own who I would do anything for. I have dog sat in home and visited homes for potty breaks, I have also walked dogs, volunteered at my local humane society and fostered animals! I also work at a veterinary clinic and have lots of hands on experience in the field. Rest assured any emergencies would be handled efficiently. I check on all my animals multiple times a week, I love to cuddle and love on any animals and give them tons of attention. I really enjoy basic training and walking with them! I feed detailed and thoughtful meals and spend quality time with any pet I am with. I do have a job that requires me to work many days during the week, but it doesn’t affect my ability to tend to animals in my care. My husband is also readily available to assist me whenever needed. He is just as much of a lover as I am and is currently in school for Veterinary Medicine. I feed them 2-3x daily, change their water every day, offer treats and plenty of outdoor time. I make sure everything they need is handled every day. I can administer medications and provide more in depth care due to my extensive experience.
“Sophia was very good with the cats; I could tell by the pictures that she sent. They were friendly to her when they met her. Usually they are more aloof with new people they meet. Sophia took care of all the things we asked of her. I got a really good vibe from her and felt that my babies would be well cared for. I would recommend her, and we would hire her again.”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, either in my own household or my friends! I’ve always enjoyed having a relationship with pets and have a deep love for all animals. Communication with owners and attention to any specific details regarding the pets is something that I feel is my specialty! I also am very flexible and willing to accommodate my plans for the sake of the owner. I currently am a college student at Ball State University and in my senior year. My class load this year is relatively light and looking for some part time work. Besides class and studying I am flexible almost every day. I currently don’t have any pets in my home but one thing I always try to make sure to achieve when meeting new pets in a new environment is to be friendly and don’t be shy or scared when meeting the pets for the first time! Treat them like you’ve been friends for years even though you just met them!
About: We’ve had animals since our whole life, me and my partner love to take care of the animals and would love to meet all of your animals and to take care of them, take them on a walk, etc I’m currently working part time, my partner, Taylor is a online college student so we have a lot of time between us to go and take care of the animals whenever it is needed (: When I’m at your home I’d watch them all the times, put on leash everytime we go out or go on a walk, make sure they’re keeping themselves busy
“Traci is an amazing dog sitter always sends pictures with funny captions of what happened during her visit! She is very flexible and truly learns your pups behaviors. Makes leaving your fur baby with her less stressful.”
About: I have pet sit for many years. I love meeting new animals. I enjoy pet sitting because as a social worker I am able to come home to an animal and sent time with them. Animals are the way I cope. I have plenty of time to play with animals in the evenings and weekends. My schedule is very open for this and I am excited to have this opportunity I will ensure to keep everything the way I found it or even better. I know animals do best in their own environment so I have no problem being in other peoples homes. I show respect.
About: I have had many dogs throughout my life. From Cane Corsos, to Corigs, I can handle it! Your pet will be in safe hands with me! I work full time but am available most mornings and several breaks throughout the day. I also have availability on weekends and the flexibility to help when needed! I can take your dog to the dog park if preferred over walking. I have experience walking dogs both big and small. I love playing with dogs!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little. I’ve had both big and little dogs, with other small animals as well. Many neighbors, family members, and friends have trusted me to take care of their animals when needed. I am working part-time at Constant Clean for winter break with plenty of time to take care of animals! I am staying home for break so that you don’t have to worry about your pets. This past summer I worked for a cleaning service to take care of peoples homes. I am responsible with others belongings and handle them with care. While I am not taking care of pets then, I handle everything with the same attitude.
“Noah was amazing! I had to go out of state to visit family and I had Noah watch my dog and cat for two days. Noah let me know before he arrived at my house and created a card for every time they were at my house. Noah included pictures and updates of my animals each visit! I had a problem with my security system and it resulted in the alarm going off while Noah was there. Noah was really calm and collected during all of it and was a great help! I definitely recommend Noah!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Yorktown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Yorktown 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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Yorktown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
