About: I have experience dropping in to feed cats and giving them the attention and love they want. I also grew up with a lot of friends with dogs, and I get along with their pets very well. I work part time in retail at two different stores, but they schedule me for only a few days a week and no more than 6 hours, so I have lots of time for your animals. I care for pets in my clients homes. I give them love and attention but I will also give space if they’re not up for play time.
About: With over 14 years of personal pet care experience, I bring a deep understanding of what it takes to keep dogs happy and thriving. For over a decade, I lovingly cared for my own dog through all stages of life, and I have spent years fostering dogs of various breeds, backgrounds, and temperaments. Fostering has taught me how to be incredibly patient, how to read canine body language, and how to help anxious or shy dogs feel safe in a new environment. I treat every guest with the same dedicated, individualized care I gave my own pets and fosters.🐾🐶 I currently work part-time, which gives me a very consistent and reliable daily routine. I am fully available every single day during the afternoon from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM, making me the perfect fit for midday potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I also have plenty of extra time in the evenings during the weekend for dinner feedings or cozy companionship! When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your furry family members with the same love, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, so I do my best to keep their usual routine consistent—including feeding times, walks, playtime, cuddles, and potty breaks—to help ease any stress or separation anxiety. I also make sure your home stays secure by keeping doors locked and ensuring pets are safely inside before I leave. Most importantly, I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, loved, and in caring hands! 🐕
About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—from fish and lizards to cats and dogs. My wife and I are proud cat parents to S’mores (who, despite my best efforts, isn’t too keen on training). I helped train both of my family dogs and still love visiting them at my parents’ house. After a busy year teaching high school, I’m looking forward to a summer with less talking and more time playing with pets. I’m happy to work on basic training or reinforce commands while you’re away—whatever helps keep your pet happy, safe, and loved! I am a full time school teacher so I have a great schedule with plenty of time for your furry friend! Available most days and times and willing to work on your pets schedule Comfortable handling all walking, litter box cleaning, feeding, and certain medications for your pet.

About: I have experience caring for both cats and dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs, from energetic and playful to shy, senior, or more independent pets. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including those who may need extra attention, routine, or patience. I’ve also cared for a variety of animals beyond cats and dogs, which has helped me develop a calm, adaptable approach to pet care. My focus is always on making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I primarily provide care in clients’ homes to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe experience by following each pet’s established habits, routines, and care instructions closely.

“Erin is super professional, kind, responsive, and went out of her way to accommodate a walk request. She asked really important questions and is a fellow dog owner herself. My dog absolutely loved her and I trust her implicitly. I highly recommend Erin for all your pet care needs!”

About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for my own dog, as well as helping to take care of my cousin's dogs. I took care of them by feeding, walking, and giving them water. I also completed an internship at Rockaway Veterinary Hospital, where I gained hands-on experience with basic care and monitoring pets' health and behavior. I feel comfortable working with any animals as long as they aren't too aggressive. I loved working and being with animals since I was little, and in the future, I hope to work on a farm or as a vet. I'm going to college, and I'm available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to care for your pets. Any time works for me before 8:00 pm. I usually take care of pets by taking them on walks, feeding them, and giving them water. The service I provide is going to the client's house and taking care of their pet. When pet sitting, I update the client by sending pictures and texting them about the pet's progress. In case of an emergency, I will take the pet to the vet.

I’ve walked, fed, and pet-sat for multiple different families around my hometown. i’m currently working part time, and want to incorporate pet sitting into my daily routine. an ideal day would be waking up early to walk some dogs, head to my part time job, walk some more dogs, hang out at home, and end the night by walking more dogs. :) I am kind, understanding, and patient when it comes to taking care of your fluffy friends. I love visiting the dog park and other green spaces, and would love to do so with your dogs!

About: As a future Physician Assistant (PA) and former aspiring veterinarian, I combine my love for animals with medical awareness, reliability, and a warm, bubbly personality! I recently graduated and became a certified Physician Assistant (PA)! I have off before the beginning of my job and have plenty time to watch and sit for families who need help with their animals. I can be of any assistance the pet owner requires! I can care for the animal and provide medications, etc, or simply play, feed, or walk them.
“Sarah is the best! She helped us take care of our dog when my husband and I were away for 2 days and sent cute pictures to tell us that our dog was feeling happy and well. She has been a tremendous help.”
“Jodi was extremely responsive and communicative. She went the extra mile and sent a ton of photographs, checked on medical issues and whether there was food/water in her bowl. Highly recommend and will ask her to walk Reigh again!”
About: I've been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember—they've been a part of my life since the day I was born. Caring for dogs isn't just something I do, it's something I genuinely love. In addition to raising and caring for my own dogs, I've looked after dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. My goal is to make your pup feel right at home by giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care tailored to their needs. Dogs have always seemed to gravitate toward me, and I love building trust with each one I meet. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers quiet cuddles, I'll make sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. My own dogs have always been my world, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. I'll care for your dog as if they were my own and provide the same love, patience, and attention I'd want for my own furry family members. I am currently working full time (Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm) in Parsippany. I am available to care for your pet(s) early in the morning, lunch time, and after 5pm during the week, as well as all day Saturdays and Sundays. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex. I do not have a backyard of my own but there is plenty of outdoor space around. Unless you request otherwise, I have no problem with dogs on the furniture in my home. I will always care for your dog based on any requests you have, but I will always treat them as my own; handling them with love and providing the most safe and comfortable environment for them as possible.

This was Jett’s first walk with someone new, and Allie did an amazing job! She took him on several walks around the neighborhood and made sure to burn off some of his energy playing fetch in the backyard. Allie is reliable and great with dogs—I would recommend her. Thank you, Allie!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Youngstown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Youngstown.

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 walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Youngstown. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
