“Rachel is simply wonderful! She is incredibly attentive, reliable, and sends me updates after every visit. It’s such a relief to know our fur baby is in safe hands. I wouldn't trust anyone else!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have a Great Pyrenees mix and Golden Retriever at home. In high school I helped train the golden retriever. This past year I have also been dog sitting an enthusiastic and energetic Australian Shepard. At my college house, I have also been helping train a one year old Golden Retriever puppy. I really enjoy running in my free time so I would be happy to run or walk your dog! I recently just graduated from Ball State University and am now in my first year of medical school. I currently have no other commitments outside of pet sitting and studying hard for school! I would care for your pet like my own! I would love to play with you pet if they are high energy or just chill and hang out with your pet inside if they just want company. I also love to be outside so I would be happy to go on walks or runs with your pet.
“Emma was amazing! She always updated me on my kittens and even sent me little videos of them playing! Her updates were always detailed and she answered any questions you had during the drop-ins! She even scooped the litter, gave them their meds, and cleaned the few accidents that popped up! At the end of the week, she even took out the used litter, washed the boxes, and replaced the litter! Seriously stellar! I recommend her 100%!”
“Elizabeth is excellent! She is very reliable and professional. She helped me take care of my cat for a month when I traveled internationally. She followed my instructions well and beyond. She offered extra help when unexpected situations happened. I greatly appreciate her help!”
About: Hello! I’m a student at ball state, and I grew up with 2/3 dogs always at home. I had to help with feeding, house sitting, cleaning up accidents, and walks! Some of my older pups needed medication so I have some tricks there. I’ve also house sat/puppy sat for family friends and love just relaxing with dogs! I’m a biggg cat lover, and we grew up with 3 of them. I’m a sucker for a cuddly cat, but I’ve also taken care of cats that don’t care about me and I respect that. I scan for normal liter box usage (cat pee is a problem if not cleaned!), fill, and wash water bowls! Either way I love animals, I’m looking to take my hometown experience to Rover and help your pets in Muncie(ish) area! :) I work part-time as an IT specialist, and am a college student. With remote work and limited classes I can make a lot of times work! I can plan around my classes gaps to stop by and take a little walk with your dog(s), stop by after work to hang out with them for the evening, and go in before work/school to make sure they get some morning stretches/potty break! I understand you’re trusting me inside your house, so I want you and your pets to be safe. Always lock doors going in and out is very important! Also, not touching your stuff, it’s not my business! For the pet care, I want to make sure they have their needs met and they are enriched. Playing with them, and allowing time for them to sniff while walking are important to me! I want to ensure your pet is in good hands by going the extra mile to give them all the love!
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I have owned and cared for many dogs and cats, and currently have 3 sweet pups and 2 silly cats. I love active animals and more docile animals alike. Whether we are playing or just hanging out, I want to be sure every pet is as happy as possible. I care about the well-being of all animals and consider it very important that their lives are enjoyable and they are happy. I currently substitute teach, so my schedule is usually pretty open. I want to help pets out as much as possible, so I will make myself available as often as I can. I am a very attentive caregiver. I will follow your rules and allow plenty of fun and space for your pet. I always make sure there is enough food and water and ensure everyone and everything is as safe as possible.
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’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:)
“Zoe did a great job with drop in visits/walking Maple and Millie! Excellent communication, on time and the pups loved her! Highly recommend! We will definitely be using her in the near future!! Thank you!”
About: I’ve have been a dog owner for over 15 years. I have taken care of animals as young as a puppy and senior dogs. I have also cared for small animals. I work from home on Mondays. I do work in office Tuesday through Friday but home on the weekends with full availability. I do have help at home so someone is always present to take dogs out to potty! My dogs do have a fenced in backyard and can run and play. I can walk dogs if needed. I also can take care of fish and small animals. I have two Guinea pigs at home!
About: Hi! I’m a full-time professional with a deep love for animals and experience caring for pets of all kinds. I can provide a variety of pet care services and give each animal plenty of love, attention, and individualized care. I’m happy to care for both dogs and cats. *we do have a nice large run in the garage! I do have a personal dog who prefers to keep to herself; however, she will always be safely separated and put away during any pet stays to ensure a calm and secure environment for your pet. I also have kennels available if needed. Ive got lots of room plus a fenced in back yard! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family member — I look forward to caring for them! 😊 **I also have lots of experience working in dog shelters and kennels, so I know a lot! I can pick up in wabash too! I work full time- but can have a routine! My mother in law works at my house as a nanny. So if needed she will always be present. My dogs are bell trained so when they need to go potty I take them on a leash. Most dogs that have stayed with me have learned quickly where to go if they need to potty. I can provide any service for your pet, just tell me the details.
About: I was a devoted pet parent for 12 years, caring for my yorkies Maggie & Molly from the time they were one through their senior years. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, maintaining routines, and administering insulin injections when needed. While I’m new to providing pet care professionally, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and love I’d want for my own 🐾 I work Monday through Friday 9am to 4pm. I’m in the office every Tuesday & Wednesday and every other Monday. I work from home on Thursdays & Fridays. I can provide pet care both before and after work, with extra flexibility on my work-from-home days ☺️ I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of attention. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and safe, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away 🐾❤️
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for my own pets, including both cats and dogs, along with volunteer work through animal shelter outreach programs and fostering. Having raised my rescued Pitbull Delilah, now 13, I've cared for pets through every stage of life--from playful puppies to senior companions--giving me unique insight and compassion that sets me apart from other sitters. As a stay-at-home-mom, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day, offering consistent attention, timely walks, caring and loving companionship I prioritize safety by providing a pet-proof environment, secure spaces, and constant supervision. Families can trust me to care for pets with love, patience and reliability in my home and theirs.
“Very attentive and careful while walking my husky that hasn’t always been well behaved on a leash. He even tried working with her to reduce her pulling. Gave her all the attention she needed when she was missing her family! Would absolutely use him again and recommend him to friends and family.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Yorktown is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $27 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 October 2026, there are 556 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Yorktown. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
