“Taylor made traveling easy for the first time!! She stayed in our home and did a great job with the two dogs, and even took care of all of the other animals on the ranch! We will definitely be reaching out to her again when we head out of town!”
“Rachel was amazing!!! I am a nervous nelly about leaving my pets and she made me feel so comfortable and confident that they were well taken care of. She sent lots of picture updates and whenever I checked in the dogs were all cuddled up with her. My cat broke something and she was honest about it (which is no fun to have to tell someone). I didn’t come home to any surprises. The house was it great shape, the pets were well taken care of. I will definitely be using her again and recommending her to friends!”
About: I am very responsible and can be trusted to take care of their furry family member while they are away. I love dogs and have had 3 throughout my life and enjoy their energy and love taking care of them and loving on them! I am 34, responsible and trustworthy! I would love the opportunity to care for your animal or just take them on walks! A few of my friends use rover and they love it! I hope you choose me to take care of your animal while you are away. I would love to provide you with references if needed as I have done this in the past. Thank you again and I hope to hear from you soon! Have a great day! Caring for pets is something I naturally work into my daily routine. Whether it’s going for a walk, feeding, or just giving plenty of love and attention, I make sure animals in my care feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I plan my schedule around their needs—whether that means early morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime. Your pet’s well-being becomes my priority, so their routine stays as consistent and stress-free as possible In my home, pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they’re treated like family. I make sure they have fresh water at all times, regular meals, and plenty of playtime and snuggles. Walks and potty breaks are done on a consistent schedule, and I pay close attention to their energy level and mood to keep them happy and healthy. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine exactly as instructed, so everything feels familiar and stress-free for them. I make sure feeding times, walks, and play match their usual schedule, and I give lots of affection and care so they feel loved while their owner is away. My goal is to make your pet’s day as joyful and comfortable as possible.

“Katelyn did amazing taking care of our puppy while we were out of state. She kept us updated with photos throughout her stay. Our puppy was very happy and taken care of when we return.”
About: I am a huge animal lover and have grown up around them my entire life. At present, I have two dogs at home - but sometimes four (basically a mini-shelter!) My dogs often go on daily adventures with me, whether it be on long hikes outdoors or on brief excursions to Starbucks for a pup cup. Whenever my friends or family need someone to dog-sit, I am their first choice, and I have taken care of a wide variety of breeds, ranging in size from the small maltese to the large malinois. When it comes to taking care of your pets, a top priority for me is safety: I will make sure that they are properly leashed when walking and are well taken care of at home. I have completed multiple training courses and am familiar with how to handle reactivity, aggression, anxiety, and stubbornness in dogs as well as cats. I have plenty of time available for dog walking and pet-sitting before / after work or even during lunch. I look forward to helping, so please feel free to reach out! I care for pets with a realistic mindset. It takes a while for them to create a bond with a new person. I will be calm, give them treats and show them affection to create a bond with your best friend.

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 Yost 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 Yost 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 Yost 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.
