“Jaydin was absolutely amazing, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. Most importantly, my dogs loved her, and that says a lot because they are not always the easiest with new people. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated, and followed all of our instructions and house routines perfectly, which meant so much to me. Knowing my babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for while I was away gave me real peace of mind. I would trust her again in a heartbeat to stay in my home and care for my dogs. There honestly aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am. Thank you for everything, Jaydin!”
About: I am a retired Army MWD handler with 20 years experience taking care of both cats and dogs and 7 years experience training dogs. I have basic veterinary knowledge in case of emergencies and also nutritional knowledge for feeding if looking to level up your pet's nutritional needs. I am free most of the time as I have no other obligations besides my own fur babies and periodic appointments. Training is available and I am comfortable with senior care as well. I adore animals wholeheartedly, am down to rough house with any dog if they like that, and am not afraid of getting bit or scratched. I believe in showing animals the absolute love, care, and attention they receive best. I am retired, so I have all the time in the world to play with your pets! Some days may need to work around an appointment or two, but otherwise I am free. The way I take care of each pet is personalized to that pet. Whether that is constant play, massages and stretches, or constant cuddles, I do it all!
“This was our first time doing a house-sitting/boarding-style booking with Molly. As usual, she exceeded our expectations! George had the time of his life this weekend. He got to hang out with her Great Dane, check out some chickens, and explore a well-maintained backyard. She also practices immense patience with George, communicates honestly about his behaviors, and keeps us updated. I can't thank her enough!”
“Awesome sitter! Super responsive and deeply care about my babies. She followed the care instructions to the letter and went above to ensure they are well taken care off! Definitely hire if you want quality care!!!”
“Darren is a thoughtful care giver for my fur babies. After months of not walking them, he got them back into a routine to help myself and my dogs on the road to wellness. Our home was cared for and has been super attentive to our needs. All instructions were followed and felt confident about Darren's care while we were on holiday. I highly recommend his services!”
“Jessica took great care of Venus and was even flexible as I was experiencing flight delays on my return. She's a great communicator and very caring pet sitter. She left my home in perfect condition and even washed the bedding which was very considerate. Highly recommend!”
“Caitlin was the perfect sitter for my 7 and 10 yr old dogs. My pups were so happy with her and I appreciated videos and pictures with daily updates so I didn’t need to worry about them. Absolutely I’m going to request her services again in the future. Thank you so much!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud cat owner, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands. I have firsthand experience caring for my own pets and understand the patience, attention, and affection they need. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to treating every pet with the same love and respect I give my own. My goal is to help you feel confident that your furry family members are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is already part of my everyday life as a proud owner of two cats. As a pastor, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around different responsibilities, including caring for pets. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide dependable, attentive care throughout the week. Whether it’s feeding, playing, walking, or simply keeping your pet company, I want to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I believe pets are part of the family and deserve to be treated that way. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. This includes providing fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and respect their home and property. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I have owned animals since I was 4 yrs old w/ 22+ yrs of experience; I grew up on a ranch/farm within the rodeo life where I took care of dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, reptiles, cows, and more.

About: I love all animals. I’ve both taken care of and owned all size, age, and breeds. Senior dogs have a special place in my heart. I am currently working from my home and are afforded the opportunity and flexibility to watch, care for, and/or board your pets at all times!

“Our 3 dogs took to Tali like family! He stayed in our home for a month while we were overseas. Not only did he take excellent care of our dogs, but he watered our plants, gave the dogs their medications, scooped poop, and coordinated with our cleaner and lawn care team. We will definitely have Tali care for our dogs again. We highly recommend him! Thank you, Tali!”
“Kayla was AMAZING. We had never left our animals before (three Aussies, two lizards, and a parakeet), so we were nervous about how they would respond for someone completely new. To summarize, I’m pretty sure they never even blinked at eye at us being gone for a week because they were so happy and well taken care of by Kayla! Every photo she sent (we received daily check-ins!) they were smiling away without a care in the world! We were instantly relieved and felt completely at ease knowing they were so happy. We also had a major plumbing emergency at our home while we were away, and Kayla took care of everything! Even though our home was new to her at the time of the emergency, it was only her first day there, she immediately located our main water line, shut everything off, moved our antique furniture to ensure it wasn’t damaged, and even stayed and communicated with our plumber through the entire thing! Because of her extremely quick response and action, our home was spared from major damage. We are so grateful that we have found her, and we will definitely be asking her back the next time we need our beloved animals and home cared for!”
“Whitney was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home and took care of our sweet Sam while we were out of state, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sam is an older girl with a big personality and her own routines, and Whitney made sure she was comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Sam was in such good hands, especially while we were so far away. Whitney was dependable, thoughtful, and treated our home with care. We came home to a happy pup and everything just as we left it. We’re so grateful for her and would absolutely trust her with Sam again. Highly recommend!”
About: For the past 14 years, caring for dogs has been more than just a responsibility — it’s been a true passion of mine. From raising and loving my own dog to caring for others as if they were part of my family, I’ve gained hands-on experience in providing patient, attentive, and compassionate care. I’m comfortable with daily walks to keep them active and happy, bath time to keep them clean and fresh, and administering medications when needed. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and special needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, feeding schedules, or extra care for senior dogs, I treat every pup like my own — with kindness, responsibility, and lots of belly rubs. I’m a business owner so my time is flexible. With advance notice I can be available as needed and I can also be available on short notice as long as I’m available I have a fenced yard and a crate inside the house if needed. Your dog will be supervise at all time. Your dog is allowed on our sofa and free to roam around the house
“So happy Erin was available to watch my babies! She is patient and kind . My dogs can behave like gangsters when they are around someone new. Erin won them over and they have made a new friend. I’m grateful she was here for us.”

“Kaylin is a special soul and one of very few sitters I trust my home and pets with! She was a fantastic communicator and took exceptional care of everything. She went far above and beyond!! I feel so lucky to have been able to meet her and look forward to many repeat visits in the future. She is a ROCKSTAR :-D”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, so pets aren't a side hobby for me. They've been part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Over the years I've cared for dogs, cats, and even snakes, which has taught me how to read each animal's personality, spot when something's off, and keep them comfortable when their favorite person is away. I'm especially comfortable with puppies and kittens. I know they need extra patience, frequent potty breaks, close supervision, and plenty of play to burn off energy. Your little one will be safe, entertained, and kept on track with any training you've started. What also sets me apart is how I communicate. You'll get regular photo and video updates, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I stick to your routine, from feeding times to walks to bedtime quirks, because consistency helps pets feel safe. As a Killeen local, I understand how busy life gets for working families and military families. Whether it's a weekend trip, a long work week, or a TDY, I treat your pet like my own and your home with the same respect. Pet care is already part of my daily rhythm. I build my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and updates, so your pet gets consistent attention. In my home, pets get a safe, clean space, their usual food and routine, plenty of play, and supervised time with me. In your home, I follow your routine exactly, keep everything tidy and secure, and send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and comfortable.

But I love to be there if I’m needed . Always want the best for the animals . I will treat any owners home with upmost respect . I am a neat person and I’m able to do most services that are needed.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of every age and need since I was 10 — from rowdy puppies and playful kittens to senior pets with special requirements. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, tracking dosage schedules, and watching for changes in appetite, mobility, or behavior. With senior pets, I focus on gentle routines, extra rest, and close attention to comfort. With younger pets, I prioritize safe socialization, play, and structure so they get the interaction and exercise they need. I offer boarding and house sitting, so pets stay in a comfortable, familiar routine whether they’re in my care or their own home. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to feed, medicate, and care for their pets like my own. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets real attention, not just a quick check-in. Here’s what a typical visit or stay looks like: • Available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm • Flexible daytime drop-ins for medication schedules and older pets who need consistency • Extra playtime and outdoor walks built into every visit, not rushed • Happy to adjust timing around your pet’s normal routine so nothing feels disrupted I treat every pet like my own, with a strong focus on both physical safety and mental enrichment. Here’s what you can expect: • Fenced yard and two friendly, dog-savvy dogs to keep your pet company • Daily outdoor time for fresh air, sniffing, and exercise — not just a backyard bathroom break • Enrichment activities like puzzle feeders, treat-scattering, and interactive play to keep their mind engaged • Comfortable crating available if that’s part of your pet’s routine • Careful medication administration and monitoring for any dogs or cats with health needs • A calm, decorated, pet-friendly space that feels like home, not a kennel

The average cost of House Sitting in Youngsport is $25 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $25 per night.

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 Youngsport 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 Youngsport 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 Youngsport 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Youngsport. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
