“Kelly is an excellent dog sitter. Flash was very happy with Kelly. She is very quick in responding to messages. She is very gentle and soft. She worked for many years as veterinary tech. I highly recommend her to take care of pets.”
“Paulina always does such a great job caring for our Clover while we’re away - can’t say enough positive things about her attention to detail and strong communication!!”
“Bri provided us an excellent first experience with both cat sitting and Rover! We appreciated her wealth of knowledge and experience with animals, as well as her great communication. She was reliable, seasoned, and most importantly, highly liked by our fur baby 😊 We will definitely be booking Bri again in the future, and highly recommend others to do the same!”
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She took care of our dog, and our two cats for an entire week while we were away, and we couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring throughout the entire week. She sent us regular updates and photos after her visits, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were happy and being well cared for. Right before we left for our trip, a cyst on our dog’s back unexpectedly burst, which of course made us nervous about leaving her. Stephanie truly went above and beyond. She took our dog to the vet for us, kept us updated, and made sure she received her medication and the extra care she needed afterward. Knowing that our dog was in such capable and caring hands while we were away meant so much to us. Stephanie treated our pets like they were her own, and we came home to three happy, well-cared-for pets. We are so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely book with her again. We highly recommend her!”
About: I’m an experienced and lifelong animal caregiver with a strong background in caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I grew up around dogs and have raised multiple pets from puppy and kitten stages through adulthood, giving me a solid understanding of animal behavior, socialization, and daily care needs. I have extensive hands-on experience with large-breed dogs, including my 150 lb Labrador, who I trained in obedience, leash manners, and routines through consistent, positive-based training methods. I also have a mini Dachshund, so I’m comfortable with small breeds, their unique personalities, and their care needs as well. In addition to dogs, I care for two one-eyed cats, which has built my experience with special-needs pets requiring extra patience, attentive care, and gentle handling. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter maintenance, medication assistance if needed, enrichment activities, and creating a calm, loving environment for cats of all temperaments — including shy or anxious pets. I prioritize safety, comfort, routine, and affection to make every pet feel secure and loved in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, enrichment, training reinforcement, or extra cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs to ensure they feel at home while you’re away. Because I attend school part-time and complete most of my coursework from home, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m able to be home throughout the day, which means more consistent supervision, playtime, walks, and companionship for your pets — not just quick check-ins. My routine gives me the ability to accommodate morning, mid-day, and evening care, with availability for overnight stays, extended visits, and last-minute needs. I’m able to adjust my schoolwork around pet care, ensuring your pets receive reliable, steady attention and a calm, loving environment. My home is set up to provide a safe, calm, and welcoming space for the pets I care for. I have gated-off areas both inside and outside, which allows me to separate pets when needed for comfort, feeding, rest time, or safety. This setup is especially helpful for pets who prefer their own space, are shy, or need a slower introduction to others. I also have friendly pets in the home who are used to being around other animals, but introductions are always done carefully and based on what is best for your pet. Whether your pet enjoys social time with others or prefers a quiet, private space, I can accommodate their needs. Your pet will have a secure environment, plenty of supervised time, and a comfortable area where they can relax stress-free — just like home.
“Eleanor was great. Constantly kept me informed and updated on any concerns or issues. Would definitely recommend her services to a friend, and look forward to her services in the future.”
“Courtney was a fantastic sitter for my 2 cats. She spent lots of time with them playing with them, showing them affection and giving them time to warm up to her. She also brought in mail while we were gone and gave updates that made me feel better about leaving them. It was nice to see them enjoying her attention and treats. I'll definitely request her services again!”
About: I have professional experience working at a veterinary kennel and am trained in proper medication and subcutaneous fluid administration. I also know how to work with anxious, elderly, and disabled pets. I love getting to know each pet’s personal needs and quirks in order to give them the best care possible! I am a recent college graduate and am doing pet sitting full time! This means I will be able to schedule my days around your pet‘s needs. My care includes feeding, walking, continuation of training, and giving pets all the love they deserve! I will be at your house as much as I can to give your pet the best experience. I am willing to help pets that need assistance getting around the house or that have other special needs. Overall, I want to create as safe, comforting, and loving of a space as possible for your pets while you’re away.
“This was our first time working with Ben and he watched our two cats for two weeks while we were in Ca. He met us for a meet and greet and then an additional paid for feeding while we were home to practice with our kitties. He is very kind, has a gentle disposition, and we felt good leaving our nervous kitties with him and trusting him in our home. He was responsive the two times I checked in and he reached out to us the morning after returning home. We will be sure to use Ben again!! Thanks, Ben!”
“Savannah took excellent care of our dog while we were gone for a few days. Always filled out the “rover card” at every visit, including multiple photos. Gave us great peace of mind while we were away.”
“I am extremely happy with Lexi watching my Belgian Malinois. I did not know Lexi prior to booking her for 3 drop in visits/day for 13 days. Considering being in Europe and so far away, I was very nervous leaving Taz for so long in the care of a stranger. I now know Lexi was the right person to take care of Taz and will request her service in the future. Lexi sent photos with every visit. She went above and beyond IMO. She gave Taz his meds, she brushed Taz, she contacted me and sent photos when he got a hot spot. I asked her to use the anti itch/ fungal spray I have and put a cone/collar on him to help prevent further irritation. She even brought my garbage can in and did a special mail check for me. Great communication, well cared for pet, flexible in booking my vacation days, reliable. Overall, highly recommend, will use again. Thank you Lexi for taking such fantastic care of Taz!”
“Nicole has been great and took pictures to send to me while I was out of town. Ad anxious as I was, it was a relief to see that my cat was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend using her services in the future!”
“Melissa was great!! She made fast friends with my Pinky, is very knowledgeable about cats and made some great recommendations, and was quite reliable with check-ins. Highly recommended!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Youngsville is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Youngsville
Alyeska was a natural with our two boys. They are normally mad when we come back from a trip but they barely registered our return this time. It was clear their physical and emotional needs had been well taken care of. She also send us videos each day at our request, which not all sitters will do, my husband really misses the cats when we are away and these videos get him through. Also she took in packages for us we had forgotten were coming. Excellent communicator and we appreciated how consistent her timing was each day.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Youngsville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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 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.
