“This is the second time Megan took care of Lilo & Stitch for us and she was wonderful! She sent lots of pictures and gave us a summary of the drop in visit. Best of all she was able to drop in on a short notice. We look forward to booking her again in the future!”
“Chloe did a great job taking care of my two cats while we were away. She plays with them, takes pictures, is responsive to messages, and her love for animals is apparent. She also took out my trash and brought the bins back in. One of my cats made a mess and I appreciate her cleaning it up. I feel confident Chloe is taking good care of my cats while I’m away. I’ll definitely use her again in the future!”

About: Kevin and I have both been caring for dogs and many other types of animals for our entire lives and absolutely couldn’t envision our life without several animals. Kevin has grown up around a family dog business - participating in AKC scent trials, agility training, boarding and almost any other type of dog event & training you can imagine. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire lifetime and used to help foster kittens as a child and teenager. We currently have two dogs, several cats, chickens, turkeys and more. Your animals will be in safe and caring hands with us! We both work but set our own schedules and/or work from home so your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. Since we have animals of our own, caring for additional pets is not a problem and part of our normal lifestyle. We have a large fenced dog run outside, in home kennel area, along with crates for crate trained dogs. Our property is about 5 acres and fully fenced with front gates so dogs cannot leave the area. We also have a couple large lawns we use for doggy playtime, fetch and training sessions.

“Lynn was a lifesaver! She was reliable, communicated every day with me, and noticed Rocky’s feeder was malfunctioning. She gave him the food he needed, and Iet me know so I was able to fix the feeder remotely. Rocky seemed very happy to see me, and was well taken care of. Definitely will use Lynn again!”
About: I’ve been around animals in and outside of my home since i was born. I’ve always had at least one dog since i was seven and currently have three. I am certified with Wag! as well and have been working with horses for 5-6 years so i’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages and other pets you might have in your home. I stay pretty active so long walks or runs aren’t a problem either. I’m available for drop ins, walks, and sitting, overnight, early morning or anytime you need including most holidays and weekends if it’s scheduled at least one day in advance. I’d love to provide whatever your dog needs including special requests and of course love. Long term and recurring setups are preferred but short or one time things are always good too, let me know and i’ll work with you to make sure your dogs are well cared for. My schedule is very flexible, I can usually accept same day requests, long term sitting requests (longer than 3 days) will be easier to commit to with 1-2 days advanced notice I will work with whatever your dog's needs are! I have training experience with ecollar, prong collar, gentle leader, vocal cue and signal commands, and I can maintain your pups training whether they are months or years old! I can provide any level of exercise, special care, grooming, etc. that your dog is used to.
About: Proudly offering 10+ years of sitting experience! Confident with all dogs large & small - cats and horses too! Open to exotics & birds. I worked in a vet clinical for 3yrs and currently work in hospice. I’m looking to create great, long lasting relationships in Lodi. I currently work full-time from home in Lodi. I’m flexible with drop in visits (morning before 8am, midday and evening after 5pm). Overnight stays would mirror this schedule with the option of midday visit I pride myself in taking great care of my pets within our home - a healthy routine of exercise, attention and play time make a world of difference to any dog! On neighborhood walks I always carry protection and am a defensive dog mom!
About: Since I was old enough to walk, animals have been a loving part of my life. Growing up in a household where pets were treated as family, taught me that every dog and cat has a unique personality and set of needs. I am particularly skilled at reinforcing consistent routines. If you are working on leash training or basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay,' I make sure to incorporate those into our walks so your progress doesn't stall while you're at work. I am also experienced with senior care, understanding that sometimes a 'walk' is more about a slow sniff-around-the-block and some gentle companionship than a fast-paced walk. My professional life is uniquely flexible, which allows me to be the reliable 'midday anchor' for your pet’s day. I have dedicated my Wednesday through Sunday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, specifically to pet care. This means I am available during the most high-demand hours—when you’re stuck in back-to-back meetings or enjoying a weekend afternoon away. Because I don't juggle a rigid 9-to-5 office job, I can offer consistent arrival windows and the focused attention your pet deserves without rushing to the next appointment. I will treat your home with the same level of respect I’d want for my own. My process is thorough: I double-check that all doors are deadbolted, alarm systems are set, and water bowls are topped off before I leave. To keep you in the loop, I provide detailed Rover Cards after every visit. You’ll receive photos of our adventures, a map of our walk, and a summary of all 'business' handled. If a mess occurred while you were away, I handle the clean-up discreetly and thoroughly so you can come home to a fresh house and a happy, relaxed pet.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and now have my own. They are my family and I will treat yours like they were my own. I am an animal advocate for shelter animals cross posting, trying to find rescues, fosters and adopters. I’m am self employed so my schedule is very flexible. This gives me the opportunity to get out of the house and walk, play and hang with new furry friends. I have a dog I take on regular walks at my house and the lake. I feed my cats twice a day and my dog on a schedule. They are all vetted, fully vaccinated and fixed. All animals are welcome here. We live in the country and I have welcomed a lot of stray cats into our home. No animals are turned away. 💗

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,445 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
