“Shannon is awesome! She cared for our pup for two weeks. Sent photos and updates. Our house was spotless when we returned. She makes being away a bit easier. Highly recommend.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Christine. This was my first time using Rover and I was so nervous.. Christine made the process easy and comfortable. Typically I bring Apollo with me where ever I go but let’s face it, that can be a lot of extra work. I needed to leave out of town unexpectedly and it was so nice to know Apollo was home in his own environment. Extra huge perk coming home to my house looking clean! Thanks Christine!”
“Daniela was amazing to have stay in our home and care for our 4 fur-babies while we were away. She was attentive, communicative, and demonstrated great compassion for our animals. I would absolutely recommend Daniela for your pet/house-sitting needs!”
“Mark saved our vacation. When we booked several months in advance we did not expect to have a new puppy. And this puppy is already too big for a plane ride. I found Rover.com on google and looked for sitter that would not take all my vacation money. I was happy to find Mark, he was affordable and stayed at the house so my pup would not be lonely. My house was just as I left it and my puppy grew twice his size in 8 days. Mark sent us pictures everyday. Mark took on a big job watching a puppy with all the puppy bad habits and I really appreciated a break from them myself. Thank you Mark for saving our vacation and the peace of mind it came with.”
“Bella was wonderful while I was out of the country for a week. She stayed at my house with my boy and sent updates so I knew he was happy and safe while I was gone. King loves Bella and I appreciate having someone I can trust to take care of my boy.”
“Mikayla took fantastic care of our babies and our home while we were away for the week. We could tell she really takes pride in what she does and how she does it. Our Pups really like Mikayla and even wanted to follow her home when we returned. Our house was exactly as we left it a week earlier. Great job! 🐾”
“Crystal did an amazing job watching my dog Lyla. I was very anxious about traveling away from my dog but Crystal made it so much easier with photos and videos. I can tell she truly loves animals and puts her all into caring for them. I’ll be rebooking her for future trips and trusting her with my fur babies and home!”
“Liv arrived on time, communicated throughout the time she was with our pets and left the house clean. Our pets were healthy & happy upon our return. I'd recommend Liv to others that need pet care.”
About: I’ve had pets since I could remember and they’ve always been a special part of my life. Being able to care for your pets, just as attentively as I do my own, would bring me so much joy. I’ve cared for many family and friend’s pets so much so, that I would love to start professionally pet sitting. I currently work an 8-5 job 4 days out of the week but have plenty of time before and after work to feed, take to the potty, and love on your pets. My weekends are very open and I can spend more time playing with your pet as well. I have experience in cleaning up accidents, walking, feeding, administering oral medications just like I do for my own animals. I am capable of leaving your home secure and intact while you are away. I’m sure I can responsibly handle anything that comes my way.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I was raised around them from the time I was 5 years old and started learning how to care for the animals around me. I have a Husky of my own that is my bestest friend and a big baby that is super spoiled. I would love to make your pet feel just as loved with me as they are with you! I work from home so I would be able to provide optimal care for your fur baby. I also have completed vet assistant school and have worked as a volunteer at the humane society multiple times throughout my life. I am currently working remotely so I am able to take care of your pets really whenever. I am pretty open to any schedule that you may have!! I can easily crate your dog if needed, I also have a 4 month old husky puppy to keep them company that is extremely friendly and loves to play.
“Our 4 year old goldendoodle , Rosey, has NEVER been left alone. We had to fly to NYC to visit our grandson and left Rosey in Mia’s hands. Rosey adopted Mia IMMEDIATELY. Mia was fantastic. By the time we got back home Mia was Rosey’s best friend! Mia was fantastic and will be Rosey’s ONLY caregiver”
About: I have three pups and two kitties. They are my world! I have had a pet since I was a child. I have plenty of experience with animals. I am working a part time job and can be available for pet sitting needs whenever you need me to be. I can change my schedule at any time. I love walking and playing with dogs. We can travel if needed to a dog park or a fun walk. I have pup friends I can bring along if needed.
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, beginning with early exposure to veterinary clinics where I spent time shadowing and learning animal handling and care from a young age. This foundation grew into professional veterinary technician experience, where I worked with dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including senior pets, puppies, and animals requiring daily medications or specialized care. In addition to my veterinary background, I volunteered with a service dog organization where I raised and trained future guide dogs. This experience strengthened my skills in leash training, socialization, crate training, and positive reinforcement methods while working with high-expectation working dogs in real-world environments. I also actively continue dog training as a personal passion and have earned three AKC Trick Dog titles with my own dog. Because of this, I’m very comfortable working with energetic dogs, reinforcing basic obedience, and providing structured enrichment during walks and visits. I currently share my home with two dogs and a cat, so I understand day-to-day pet care, multi-pet dynamics, and the importance of consistency and routine. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is always to provide safe, reliable, and attentive care whether that means a structured walk, a drop-in visit, medication administration, or simply making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I structure my day around consistency and flexibility. I am able to accommodate morning, midday, and afternoon visits, as well as regular walking schedules and drop-in care throughout the week. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can prioritize pet care visits and ensure pets receive attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship on time. I’m used to building my day around routines, whether that’s scheduled walks, feeding times, or medication needs. I value clear communication and reliability, and I make it a priority to be punctual and consistent with every visit so pets feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific care needs. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets receive attention, fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and any required medication. I also take time to provide companionship and help pets feel calm and comfortable before leaving. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match the dog’s energy level and needs. I pay close attention to leash manners, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level to ensure a positive experience. I always treat each home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide updates so owners feel informed and confident while they are away.
About: At the height of my career, I have taken care of four rescue dogs all at once for an entire week straight! None of the dogs fought and they all felt comfortable around me. I am available to let dogs out all day and provide them with belly rubs and entertainment. I am currently unemployed and would like to take this up full time if possible. I have a cat at home, but he’s low maintenance and I am able to juggle that with dog-sitting. I can comfortably allow a cat and a small or medium dog into my apartment if they would prefer boarding. I am good to travel to sit more so, because I do not have a yard. But I do live in a dog-friendly complex.
“Emma was amazing! She communicated the whole time and sent lots of photos. We could really tell that Dallas and Maggie were very loved and had lots of fun. Will definitely book again :)”
About: 🐾 Your Pet’s Home Away From Home When you’re away from your pet, I know how important it is to have someone you can truly trust. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have cared for and trained dogs of my own for many years. I’m a certified dog trainer with experience in dog training and nutrition, and I genuinely love learning each animal’s individual personality, routines, and needs. I believe great pet care goes beyond simply providing food and walks. I take the time to understand what makes each pet comfortable and happy, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra playtime and attention, or simply letting them relax in a familiar environment. 🐶🐱 All Animals Welcome My experience isn’t limited to dogs! I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals, including: Dogs • Cats • Rabbits • Rats • Ferrets • Lizards • horses and more! Every animal is different, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions so your pet can maintain the routine they’re accustomed to while you’re away. The animals in my home are also accustomed to being around other animals, helping create a welcoming and respectful environment for visiting pets. ❤️ Why Choose Me? ✔️ Certified dog trainer ✔️ Experienced with multiple types of animals ✔️ Knowledgeable about pet nutrition and individual care needs ✔️ Patient, attentive, and safety-focused ✔️ I treat every pet as an individual ✔️ I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions ✔️ French-speaking 🇫🇷 ✔️ Your pet gets genuine attention, affection, and care—not just the basics Your pet isn’t just another booking. They’re family. My job is to make sure they feel that way while they’re in my care. Je parle aussi français! 🇫🇷 For the most part I’m at home Monday through Sunday. Friday, Saturday & Sunday I’m out for three hours in the morning working. Potty breaks are always available:) I have a puppy and a cat. Treats and love are always available. If there are any food allergies I’m use to this, it’s not a problem. If they need a bath I’m happy to do so ☺️ I make homemade treats but I always ask when I meet with you if they can have them.
“First time using Rover and Lee for house/dog sitting for a weekend. My dogs were happy and not exhausted from stress (like when they’d come back from the kennel). Both are a seniors- 14 and 13- and one takes a little more attention. Lee left the house better than I left it even (was in a hurry). Would always let me know when he was leaving to go take care of other dogs and when he came back. Will definitely be using in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 876 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Youngs. 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 Youngs 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 Youngs 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 Youngs 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.

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.
