“Irene was fantastic! I was surprised to see how comfortable my cat, Chloe, was around her. Chloe is usually very shy and rarely lets strangers pet her, but she allowed Irene to do so. Irene took great care of Chloe, and I would 100% book her again!”
“Elizabeth was very responsive and kind ! She took extra care to follow my notes. I felt totally at peace knowing she was with my babies when I couldn’t be ! I would highly recommend her services to anyone. She’s an above and beyond professional!”
“Dani did a great job of making sure Piper had everything she needed during her visits. I felt confident I was leaving my dog in good hands after the meet and greet. Dani's love of dogs and her knowledge is very apparent. Your dog will be happy you hired her!”
“Stephanie has been a great dog sitter for our dog Siggy, she’s very attentive on siggys needs and has been a huge help. Would definitely recommend Stephanie for anyone who needs a dog sitter!”
“Savannah was amazing! She took care of my little girl so well. While my kitty is shy and didn't show for her. She stayed just so Maddie could hear someone was there for her. She left her a toy fish and a spring that she can't get enough of. Normally when I arrive home from a trip to she is extremely vocal for a few days. This time she was not stressed or upset. Vocal only for about 30 mins. I will 100% use her for all of my trips.”
About: I have taken care of dogs in my home and professionally at a daycare/boarding facility. I am an RN and comfortable with meds and first aid. I will treat your dog like my family! I am currently working on starting my own business taking dogs on excursions to keep cool while playing with other dogs. I love dogs and find great satisfaction taking care of them in the home or outdoors. I will strive to maintain the regular routine for your dog. I help them feel comfortable by doing the same things you would do for them. Meal time, bedtime, walking, pottying, etc. all tend to have a routine, and I will keep that routine while pouring out affection to your dog as if they were my own.
“Issym was wonderful from start to finish. One of my two dogs is timid and not at all food-driven. She doesn't usually come or even eat for someone she doesn't know. I understand this about her and told Issy that I expect she might not eat all her food or even come when called. However, after the first visit, Issy was able to make a connection with her somehow. This resulted in my dog Yami eating for Issy and even licking her! She seldom does that to a stranger. Both my dogs were very well cared for. Issy gave an allergy pill to my other dog (who is the total opposite of Yami!). I highly recommend Issy and hope she is available the next time I have to leave town.”
“Kira was absolutely wonderful with taking care of our pup while we were away. Her visits were prompt and she sent us lots of pictures. It was a huge relief knowing he was in great care. I will definitely be using you again! Thank you!!!!”
“Tonya was awesome watching my two kitties over the holidays. Punctual, friendly, and great with my pets. Did a good job with the care instructions left. She provided a new note and photos after each visit letting me know how they were doing. Great with communication too. Wonderful sitter overall. I recommend!”
“I couldn't be more pleased with the care and attention Tamara provided Laddie my nice but barky kinda shy Sheltie. Tamara was very attentive and desirous to make sure Laddie was comfortable and not stressed out. I highly recommend Tamara and will request her to care for my 4-legged boy any time I need to go away without him. Thanks Stan and Laddie”
“We really enjoyed working with Kaela, our cats loved her and she connected with them instantly. We will book her services again and will recommend her to friends and family. Thank you, Kaela!”
“Sophia is fantastic! She’s always there when we need her, even on short notice. She takes great care of our pups, giving them plenty of attention and making sure all their needs are met. We’re so grateful to have someone so reliable and caring!”
““She was amazing with my cats! She kept me updated, took great care of them, and made me feel very comfortable while I was away. My cats looked happy and well cared for in all the photos. I really appreciate her kindness and reliability. I would definitely book with her again!””
About: I am an experienced pet caregiver, and in another life I was a veterinary assistant. I now work from home, so I want to spread love and care to all pets big and small! As of right now I am available every day, including weekends, from early mornings to late nights. I have reliable transportation to and from your homes as needed or in case of any emergency. I can offer long walks and play time for your furry friends! I can work with both dogs and cats who require medications such as insulin, transdermal medications, any other oral medications and other special care during home visits and boarding situations. I do not have any breed restrictions and hope to see dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I can walk even the heaviest of dogs. I currently work full time from home. I have a fenced in backyard for potty breaks and easily accessible walking trails by my home that I love utilizing. I live in a 3 bedroom home with my partner and a roommate. We are all animal lovers and love to play. While I am the main caregiver in the home, I am in competition for main cuddler.
“Mary Ann treats your pets as if they were her own. I trust her fully with my fur baby. She’s a delight and sends pictures and updates on how my good boy is doing so I’m not worried. I know my dog is in good hands with her. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“Alex was very flexible and able to drop in on our two cats while we were out of town for the holidays. Our previous sitter cancelled at the past minute due to car trouble, but Alex was able to meet with us even earlier than expected and save our traveling plans.”

I absolutely love Lauren. I’ve booked her twice now for about one week each and I will keep booking her every time. She is amazing. I’m not sure even where to start lol. She is super descriptive when it comes to the drop in visits even if she’s only coming for 30 minutes I had her come watch my two kitties and there’s only so much that they could do in the span of one hour, but she gives every single detail and I love it. I had a lot of anxiety leaving for my first trip because it was going to be their first time being alone, but she comforted me so much with the pictures and the detailed updates. She is genuine and is interested about their unique characteristics and to make sure that they are comfortable while I’m gone as well. She played with them did every request that I asked and more honestly. Definitely will book again!
Im so grateful to Issy taking care of my babies. I have a regular babysitter who is gone for the summer and am always nervous to trust someone new but she honestly exceeded my expectations and I just booked her again for next month. The thorough updates she provides really puts me at ease and I was surprised that even my most timid kitty warmed up to her immediately. 🩷
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Youngtown on Rover is $18.21 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,794 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Youngtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Youngtown. On Rover:
- 94% 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.
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.
