About: I was a veterinary technician for 13 years. Fully capable and experienced in medication administration for cats and dogs. Including but not limited to insulin injections, pill administration, and SQ Fluid administration. Then, I pursued other opportunities in the veterinary field. During my tenure as a vet tech I also pet sat for clients. Experience with dogs, cats, sugar gliders, birds Currently, I am only accepting cats or small dog. I have a flexible schedule but will require at least 2 days notice to meet a new pet. Once established then same day or next day can potentially be accommodated. I go over the care requirements during our meet and greet. During the visit I will not only ensure your pet receives basic care but also attention in the form of play or pets depending on the animals preferences for interaction.

About: Hello! 👋 Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by both cats and dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Providing a safe, loving, and happy environment for pets is something I truly enjoy. I currently care for dogs from two different families whenever they travel, and they love staying with me! One of the dogs has special needs and requires extra attention, including meals every four hours, feeding in a harness, and daily medication. I’m honored to be the only person outside of her immediate family that they trust with her care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, or simply relax, they’ll be treated like part of the family in my home. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands. ❤️ Hi! I’m so glad you’re here! I currently work remotely full-time through September. After that, I’ll be a stay-at-home mom, which gives me even more flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets. On weekdays, I take my child to school in the morning and return home by 8:30 a.m. School pickup is between 2:15–3:00 p.m., and we usually head straight home for homework and our evening routine. This means your pet will spend the majority of the day in a calm, loving home with plenty of attention. While I don’t have a fully fenced yard, I live in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for walks, potty breaks, and getting some fresh air. Inside my home, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I use baby gates to keep certain areas, like my child’s playroom, off-limits, creating a safe and pet-friendly environment throughout the rest of the house.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little as 11 years old. I had two dogs growing up and two cats growing up. I also had a ball python in high school and love reptiles! I currently work from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm Monday through Friday with an hour for lunch at 11:30 pm. I have the ability to switch my lunch hour and work from home three days a week! This is perfect if you are looking for a house sitter as I can hang out with your animals throughout the day while working from my laptop! I currently live in an apartment complex and unfortunately cannot house other furry friends. However, I am willing to come to you instead! I am a happy cat owner :)

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. Ever since I was a kid, animals have been a big part of my life. My grandfather owned a farm, where I helped care for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and many other animals. Those experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand the unique needs of each animal. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or simply relaxing with companionship, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of attention. I'm dependable, responsible, and committed to keeping pet parents informed. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you'll always know how your furry family member is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with kindness, patience, and respect. My goal is to earn your trust by providing a safe, fun, and loving experience for your pet while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to provide reliable, consistent care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I plan my day around each pet's needs and routine, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it's a quick drop-in, daily walks, or overnight care, I'm committed to being dependable and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pet's safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so they receive the best possible care. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment while following your feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any medication or care instructions. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a secure environment. During walks, I use safe handling practices and stay alert to my surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and respect I'd give my own.

About: I’m patient with all animals and love their energy they bring to my life. I’ve cared for animals since I was 2 years old and I’ve been connected with them ever since. I currently work a full time job that does allow me to have free time after work or weekends to care for cats and/or dogs in my free time. Although I don’t have a fenced area at my apartment complex I do have plenty of space to walk and we can always go to a park enjoying the scenery.

About: Dog sitting is more than a job for me- it’s a passion! I’ve spent time with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Terriers to gigantic Great Danes. I’m not just your average sitter; I bring a knack for understanding doggy body language, a talent for getting even the pickiest pups to swallow their pills, and I always carry a bag full of treats (of course!). Whether your dog needs a running buddy, a snuggle partner, or just someone to toss the ball again and again- I’ve got it covered. I pride myself on keeping tails wagging and owners stress free, knowing their fur babies are in the best hands. Since pet sitting is my primary job and I’m currently a college student, my schedule is quite flexible. I can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine, offering plenty of time for walks, play sessions, and any special needs your dog may have. My evenings and weekends are also free, so I can provide consistent care and attention throughout the week. Safety and trust are crucial when caring for pets in your home. I make sure to follow your specific instructions to the letter, from feeding routines to exercise needs. I will keep your home secure by ensuring all doors and gates are closed and never leave your pet unattended in potentially hazardous situations. I also maintain a clean and organized environment, respecting your space and belongings. Your pet’s well-being is my utmost concern, and I strive to provide the same level of care and attention that you would.

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

About: I worked at an animal shelter for a 4 years- fostering litters of puppies and older dogs at my home. I’m currently studying Animal Behavior & Digital Cinematography through online classes; I am a Certified Vet Assistant. I have 2 friendly active dogs of my own as well! I currently work at a rescue part-time, so I have experience with all breeds from all types of backgrounds! From anxious dogs to the high energy goofball’s I can handle it. I’m currently a part-time student and part time employee at a boarding facility. I go on runs, walks and hikes and would love to bring your pet for a stroll. I am also able to just hang out and spend quality time with your pup or cat if they have separation anxiety. I have a fenced yard and pool. If your animal needs to be kenneled, a crate will need to be provided. Three people in total live in my household, so someone will always be present to keep an eye on everything. Feeding will be done separate as a safety precaution and playtimes with my personal dogs will be monitored. I treat every animal as though they are my own; furbabies are exactly as the name suggests- babies!!

This was our second time booking with Bri, and once again - she was fantastic! She went above and beyond bringing packages in, keeping his food and litter area spotless, and even made an extra trip to give him pets because he was napping during her visit that day. We really appreciate how thoughtful and caring she is and will definitely continue booking with her!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Youmans

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Youmans is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $32 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 November 2026, there are 4,916 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Youmans. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Youmans. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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 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.
