“I’ve booked with her several times now, and she has been wonderful every single time. She’s reliable, dependable, and always keeps me updated with detailed visit notes and photos, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. She takes great care of my indoor cats, checks on my outdoor cat, and even spot cleans any little messes she finds. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I highly recommend her, and I’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future!”
“In the past 20 years or so and numerous pets ago, we have used family, fiends and contractual pet sitters, both as drop-ins and house sitting. They all did a great job at meeting the needs of each pet according to the pet's personality. Our current fur baby though, due to what appears to be some level of extreme abuse before winding up in a shelter, is extremely fearful outside of her comfort zone (home) and can suffer extreme separation anxiety. Faith, in our opinion went above and beyond in taking care of Maggie and constantly communicated with us while we were gone on ways to help help Maggie cope with her extreme separation anxiety. Faith is extremely honest, responsible, reliable and dedicated to what she does. Her abilities and communications with us while we were gone went a little bit beyond what the average sitter would do. Faith kept us constantly informed of all events and presented some of her own ideas and methods in dealing with Maggie's issues. In our opinion, Faith is not your average pet sitter and recommend her to anyone who needs pet sitting.”

“Krysten did a fantastic job with my 2 dogs. She was professional and prompt. She provided me with pictures each day and details about the visits. I highly recommend her and will definitely be a repeat customer when the time comes!”

“Kaylynn, Giovanni, & their 2 kids have been dropping in to care for our pup for a couple weeks now and we’re so glad to have found them ! 100% recommend 🐶 💗”

“Annabella was awesome! She came into my home to check on my dog Bear and handled everything perfectly, even though it was her first time meeting him and being in my house. Bear can be a little unsure at first, but he warmed up to her quickly which says a lot. She was super friendly, easy to communicate with, and made the whole process feel really comfortable. I really appreciated the update and the photo she sent too. I’d definitely trust her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and great with their pet!”

About: I provide specialized care for all dogs including bully breeds. You know, those hard to place high energy, breed/mutts that may not get along with others. I have a secure backyard, a dog door and real grass. Tired dogs are good dogs so we will play, play, play! I also provide specialized care for dogs with medical challenges, I like naps too:) I've been training animals and educating children for 35 years and offer private bookings though the prices vary from those listed. Whether private or shared, if you have more than one pup, all are welcome. Shared bookings are for friendly dogs only:) I am currently available to spend most of my day with your precious pups. As a former teacher and dog rescuer, I found it difficult to find dog sitters I could trust to devote their time and good consideration to my babies. When I left teaching I became the pet sitter I always wanted. I love them like they are my own, and spoil them like Grandma does;) My yard is fenced and secure. I have a dog door and grass to snoop. Maricopa Lake is close so we can walk, heat permitting.
“Sydney was amazing with our cats while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures and provide me really detailed updates which we so appreciated! She was great at communicating and made sure our house and pets were secure. Our cats warmed up to her which reassured me that she was really spending time letting them get to know her and she played with and snuggled with them a lot. 🥰 we would definitely book with her again or recommend her to someone else!”

“Dina was very reliable, caring and an effective communicator before, during and after 6-day check ins with my cat. I had full confidence in her during that time period (which included admin of medication) that my cat was well cared for. I will use Dina’s services for any future need.”

About: Hello! I am a full-time pet sitter with a deep passion for, and extensive experience in, caring for senior dogs. Because I work from home, I can provide 24/7 supervision, frequent potty breaks, and a quiet, stress-free environment for older dogs. I have years of experience managing mobility issues, administering oral medications and supplements, and following strict vet routines. Whether your older dog needs slow, gentle walks or just a cozy lap to cuddle on, I am dedicated to giving them the golden-years TLC they deserve. Working from home allows me to seamlessly integrate my pet's care into my day by using my remote breaks for walks and feeding, ensuring my work and pet duties are perfectly balanced. I care for pets by strictly following your established routines for feedings, walks, playtime, and medications to ensure they remain safe, happy, and stress-free in their own environment.
About: I miss having a dog, but would like to enjoy and benefit from the love of a dog by sitting with yours, currently restricted on owning a pet where I live please let me love your dog. I am currently retired so I look forward to spending quality time with your pet. Just let me know your needs and I will deliver. I just spent two weeks caring for a standard poodle, we took daily walks, playtime, grooming, and scheduled feedings. I will abide by your dog schedule.

About: I’ve owned dogs and other animals my whole life! I’ve cared for all shapes and sizes ranging from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. From new born litters to 15+ years old. Different sicknesses and disabilities. I have also cared for farm animals and livestock, reptiles, bunnies, snakes, and fish! I am a *mostly* online student so I am home all day. Only times I am unavailable are Tuesdays and Thursdays until noon. 99% of the time I am home to care and play with your pup! I live in an apartment but have tons of walking area outside! I currently own an unspayed female Shih Tzu who loves to sleep all day. If there are personality differences, she is more than happy to sleep in a separate room! I am happy to meet any and all of your pup’s and your needs!

About: Our family has had pets in our home for the last 20 years. We currently have one cat and two dogs, who loves having other dogs come to visit. We'll accept dogs for short stays, daycare, and boarding. We have a big backyard that allows for a lot of ball-throwing and running. Your dog will get lots of love and attention during their stay and will not be left alone. Because we work from home, your pet will get potty breaks and outdoor time whenever they want it. We love puppies and are happy to help with potty training. If you have been working with your dog on learning commands, we will continue that training while they stay with us. We'll update you throughout your pet's stay with pictures of what they've been doing. We look forward to making your pet a part of our family. Drop in visits will include feeding, play time, ball throwing, belly rubs, or whatever it is your pup enjoys. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule.

I will follow all instructions that are given to me and will keep your pets on any restrictions or routine that they are accustom to.
About: I have always had at least one dog since I no was young. Currently, I have a wiener dog and a rat terrier that my son calls his brother and sister. I am available weekends to hang out with dogs. I have a huge gated yard and a doggy door for guests to enjoy. My husband and I can be home as needed to watch guests during the weekends! I’m open to dogs during the week, but we do work outside of the home. I’m happy to provide water and pee pads or doggy door access if you’re ok with the radio as company! Let me know! Pets in my home are treated like my very own! I have tile floors in the living room and kitchen, as well as dog beds (and of course the couch!) to make them comfortable.

Had a great experience with this Lauren for drop-in visits for my two dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my pets. I appreciated the updates and photos—it gave me real peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy and well taken care of. I’ll definitely book with Lauren again!

Sophia went WAY above and beyond what we asked of her with no questions asked. We were honestly expecting to return to a horrifically dirty house because of our 4 animals after a week! We returned to an almost spotless house with many countermeasures put in place to prevent our animals from destroying everything! Thanks Sophia!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Youngtown 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.
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 Youngtown 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Youngtown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
