“We’ve used Elizabeth for multiple dog walk drop ins and for staying at our house for an extended weekend to watch our 10 year old lab. We highly recommend Elizabeth. She is super nice, professional and personable, and takes amazing care of our pup. You can tell from the pictures that Carter loves Elizabeth and is at ease with her. We feel very comfortable having Elizabeth at our house and feel good that Carter feels comfortable as well and has a fun time! Elizabeth is also very communicative and keeps us up to date with Carter!”
“Carol’s son stayed at our house and took great care of our dog, left the house clean, and provided frequent updates. We would work with them again and would recommend Carol and/or her family to others!”
“So thankful to have had Monica watch my dog for a weekend. Was able to work with me on short notice, very responsive, and provided plenty of pictures and updates during the visit. Will definitely book again! 😊”
“Awesome caregiver to my two fur babies! So happy to have secured Jaiden to spend three days with Sophie and Penny. Her attention to their needs, time spent with them, and respect for my home are welcomed attributes from her. Enjoy reaching out to her and having her take care of your four-legged children.”
“Nicole was wonderful to our pups! This was the first time we’ve left them overnight since adopting them so we were a little nervous at first. But she completely calmed our nerves!! I cannot thank her enough for treats them like they are hers. We will for sure be using her again! Thank you, Nicole!!”
“Courtney watched my two dogs and cat while we were out of town. She had great communication and updated me multiple times throughout my trip. Highly recommend booking with Courtney for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“Marcus was great with the dogs and was able to work around his schedule to meet and stay with them for an extended time. The house was in good shape when i returned, as were my boys. Very nice guy and worth working with!”
“Barrett was great. We normally board our dogs, so we were a little nervous at first doing something different, but Barrett put our nerves at ease. He went above and beyond and spoiled our dogs while we were gone. They were well taken care of. We highly recommend him.”
About: I have experience caring for both children and pets in different situations that require responsibility and attention. I have cared for two babies for the family I lived with while their mother was on vacation and also during a post-operative recovery period. I have also provided pet care for the family I currently work with, including full weeks and weekends. My responsibilities included feeding in the morning, bathroom breaks throughout the day, and ensuring they were well cared for and comfortable, Also the pets of my friends I always try to take them for a moderate walk whenever I'm with them. I make sure they have fresh water at all times, and I let them lie in bed with me or sit on the couch where the caregivers do the same. My weekly routine is structured and consistent, which allows me to provide reliable care. I work Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and after that I am at home and available. I will soon begin online classes, so I will continue to be home and present during the week. On Fridays, I work from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and I am free afterward. During weekends, I usually stay at home, organize my week, clean, and relax by watching movies or playing video games. I also go to the gym in the mornings and I enjoy long walks whenever they are needed, especially for pets that require extra exercise and attention. For pet care, I currently have a baby bearded dragon that spends most of her time safely in her terrarium. For everyone’s safety, I will not take her out when caring for your pets to avoid any accidents. I do not currently have dogs or cats, as I prefer to maintain stability before adopting in the future. If your pets stay at my home, I have a safe area where they can go outside for bathroom breaks, and there are nearby parks for walks and exercise. If I care for your pets in your home, I will always respect your space, belongings, and household rules. I also work as a nanny and am extremely careful and responsible in my work. I have also cared for the family dogs I nanny for, and I truly adore animals and enjoy spending time with them.
“Kaity has been so great with my senior dog, who's a bit anxious when I'm not around. She got to know him through a couple of drop-in visits and he loved her as soon as he met her. She house-sat with him during a recent evening, fed him his meds and dinner, and made him feel safe and comfortable until I returned back home. I'll definitely be inviting her back to spend more quality time with my pup!”
“Nicole was available to us last minute, which made a very stressful time significantly less stressful. Our girls were well cared for and everything was as we left it when we returned. I’d like to recommend Nicole but also want to gate keep her LOL!”
“Morgan did an outstanding job watching my small circus. She did an excellent job sticking to the schedule, dogs were exercised well and I received frequent communication. I came home to a clean house and happy pets. Highly recommend Morgan if you’re looking for a reliable, trustworthy house sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Brooke took excellent care of our pup and house while we were away. She welcomed a met and greet before booking, and our dog loved her instantly. We received frequent updates with pictures. We would definitely book again.”

Lindsay is an exceptional house and petsitter in every way! On short notice she was able to spend the weekend caring for our pups in our home. The dogs loved her and my wife and I were able to travel with no concerns that our pups (and home) were cared for so well. We couldn’t even tell she had been in the house!!
Emma did a great job taking care of both of our pups while we were away. She kept us updated with pictures, was on time and attentive, and followed our dogs medication schedule. We knew they were in capable hands while with Emma. Thank you for watching them!

FAQs for House Sitting - Youngsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Youngsville on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,750 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Youngsville. 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 Youngsville 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 Youngsville 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 Youngsville 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Youngsville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
