“Megan did great with my cats. They’re usually a little shy with new people but looks like they were comfortable with her right away. If the cats are happy and content then I’m happy, will book Megan again!”
About: I have had pet care experience since the age of 10. I have helped family and friends take care of animals. I have assisted with walking, playing , feeding, loving , etc. I have a strong passion for animals as I own many animals of my own! I currently have 5 cats, and huskey and a tortoise! On my free time I foster with the elk grove animal shelter and help kittens find their forever home. My passion is animals and I love meeting new furry friends everywhere i go. I treat those babies how I would want mine to be treated. I have alot of experience with seniors animals and giving medication as well. I current work full time Monday-Friday. I am available after 5 pm during the weekdays and am usually available on the weekends as needed! I am flexible and able To work around what’s needed I pride myself in taking the most top tier care of all animals. This goes for my own and those I care for. Giving excellent care goes a long way and it shows in our animals. My personal animals are on routines that we stick to. I like to play with them and provide enrichment. I also like to take my animals on walks to have them
“I will definitely use Kelsee's services the next time we travel. She was always pleasant and flexible. I could not have asked for better. She gave us just enough contact with text and photos to keep us comfortable. We knew our 20-year-old cat was in good hands. She also kept the wild birds fed and potted plants watered. Thank you Kelsee!”
“Dawn did a very good job caring for my many cats in addressing their medical needs (administering insulin and eye drops). She was attentive to all their weird eating preferences (different food/ portions for 3 of my 4 cats), and I appreciated that. I came home to things how I hoped they be and really appreciated her careful care. I look forward to booking with Dawn again.”
About: I volunteer at the Stockton Animal Shelter. Also, I have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix so I’m used to smaller animals. My dog is 14-16 so he’s very old and is becoming more immobile and blind. I’m used to feeding him and helping him around the house. I’m currently working part time so most I’m completely free on the weekend as well as Monday and Tuesday. Also I have plenty of time on Thursday as a half day. I’m very respectful in others space. I will be very attentive to the rules that you lay out because you know your pet best
About: Hey there! I'm from Wilton, and I'm great with animals. What sets my apart is I have had dogs, cats and horses my whole life. On top of that I also have chickens, ducks, goats, and geese. So I don't mess around when it comes to animal care. Aside from providing exceptional care with my personal animals, I've also worked at a dairy where I milked the cows, fed them, and spent HOURS of time caring for them- so I'm definitely not new to spending some great time with animals that aren't mine. A lot of people I think come to pet sitting sites to earn some extra cash spending time with YOUR animals because it’s "easy". Truthfully, I'm doing this because I want to ease the anxiety of someone leaving their beloved family members (Yes I'm talking about your pets because they are definitely family) with someone they don't know, and provide others with the same amount of care and love I'd want someone to treat my animals with. My dog has a personal morning routine to get her hyped for the day, so I'm good with animals that need a little extra TLC! I work part time 4 days a week Monday through Thursday 6am-3pm. So for the rest of the day I'm free! I love to be outside and staying active so if your animals love the smell of the outside and having someone play games that get their brain moving- I'd love to help! I also do not work on weekend's so am totally free to pet-sit on weekends and weekdays! I live on 3 acres with friendly dogs, and lots of opportunity for your pets to be around animals they typically wouldn't see! I also have a kennel area if you would prefer that.
“Elizabeth is amazing! My dogs and cat absolutely loved her (even the dog who is usually super weary with strangers!) and she was responsive, communicative and super flexible with our schedule. Definitely will be rebooking with her again!”
About: Hi! I’m destiny :). I have been dog sitting consistently since 2023! I have experience working with large dogs and im also currently going to school to study Pre-Vet with the end goal of working with wild life. Im currently open to any bookings ! Just please contact me. I’ll be especially available in the mornings between 6am-11am and in the afternoons and evenings, 5pm-10pm I have a fenced house with a spacious backyard! I’m not open to having any dogs over considering my mom is not comfortable with large dogs yet.
“From the beginning, Khyli was welcoming and showed genuine concern for my kittens. They're 9 months old and had not been anywhere since I adopted them 7 months previously. During the booking time when she had my kittens, Khyli was patient and provided explanations of how my kittens were doing. She sent pictures and videos. The reason for a 4 ranking instead of 5 was that Khyli would not let me see where she was keeping my kittens. Although it looked fine from the pictures and videos, I wish she'd said in the booking information that for security reasons, she would not let me see the apartment where she was keeping my kittens. Hearing that, I would have selected someone else. Because I was flying out that day, I had to leave them with Khyli during an outside the car transfer and hope they'd be ok. They were, but that's the reason I won't book with Khyli again. Again, my kittens seemed to be taken care of, but from now on, I won't book without visiting the home prior to the booking date.”

“Victoria did everything we asked for and stayed in contact when she had questions or concerns. She was consistent when coming to our house and our cats took an immediate liking to her. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your animals.”

“I have a pretty high energy golden pup and Rich did a great job with her. He took her on a long walk then came back to the house to play a little fetch with her. Remi had a great time with Rich. I will definitely be using him again!”
“Jessica was an amazing pet sitter! We talked before I dropped off my cat, Ginger, on his behaviors, feeding amount/times, and things we needed to provide to prepare for Ginger’s stay. I received updates and photos daily as I asked for that prior to confirmation as it was important for me to know about Ginger’s well-being. I’m so glad he got all the cuddles and attention he needed! Ginger was happy with Jessica and I plan to rebook her in the future!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Youngstown
Diana was wonderful! She has such a warm, natural energy that immediately put my pets and I at ease. The dogs were instantly obsessed with her wanting attention, and even my two normally shy cats came out to greet her! She was attentive, thoughtful, and detail oriented throughout her visit, it is clear she has a natural connection with animals. She’s very knowledgeable and asks all the right questions, I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and trustworthy pet sitter!
Chloe took great care of my cat and was amazing with communication! She made sure to update me with photos of my cat while I was gone and how she was behaving and if there were any issues that I should be made aware of, and I could tell from the photos she sent that my cat enjoyed the time she spent with her. Highly recommend!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,453 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Youngstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .

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.
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.
