“Stephanie has been such a blessing and did a great job caring for my dog while I was away. She was flexible to extend the dates when I got delayed on my trip. I am so glad I found this service and picked her. My trust and confidence in the care of my pet is critical to me and she delivered exceptional service. I loved getting the updates and pictures daily!”
“Issy listened to my needs when tending to my senior cat I even asked her to come over to my house since it been some time since she had watched my cats so I could go over my instructions on feeding my senior cat .my cat is a very difficult one takes forever to eat and has to be watched due to the other cat always wants to eat her food she sits for two cats one senior and one youngster the youngsters very outgoing and friendly while the senior is very shy I was happy to find out that my senior cat ate well while I was gone and even allowed her by the end of the three days for her to give her some love I appreciate her listening i baby my cats like they were my children and I appreciate her doing the same definitely Book her”
“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!”
“Patricia was truly amazing, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her care. She took extra time to help my dog warm up and feel safe, which meant everything to me. My pup was extremely difficult at first, but Patricia was so patient, gentle, and kind- never rushed, never discouraged. She went above and beyond by taking my dog on long walks, giving medication exactly as requested, and even working with her on training (she helped her learn to lay down!). The constant photo updates were so reassuring and showed just how much love and attention she was giving. It’s clear Patricia genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such thoughtful, capable hands. Thank you so much, Patricia — you’re incredible, and I would trust you again in a heartbeat!”
“Tamara was great. Our 2 dogs and cat seemed very happy with her. She did everything we asked and was always easy to communicate with. We will definitely use her again!”
“I felt such peace of mind having Kaela take care of my senior cats. She did all that was needed and I felt my cats were very happy to have her come visit them. I would highly recommend Kaela to anyone.”
“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!”
“Tonya is awesome! She just took care of my 4 boys while I was out of town this past week and they loved her (they actually told me so). She is very punctual and thorough and follows directions to a T. I even had to ask her for favors like bringing up the garbage can and bringing in packages from the porch which she did without hesitation! She is an excellent care giver and my boys and I are happy to know that we can count on her. If you book her you will not be disappointed!”
“This was the first time using a pet sitter, and I was hesitant, but after meeting Dani, my mind was at ease. I like receiving the visit cards and pics on my phone. My Cali seemed so happy and taken care of too. I would definitely request Dani through Rover again. I will also tell friends. Thanks Dani! ”
“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!”
“Krysten was an excellent cat sitter! She was always on time and very flexible. I had to make adjustments to her schedule due to medication issues with my cat and she was very accommodating. I came home and found that my girls were very well cared for. I appreciate Krysten for watching them and I would definitely book her again!”
“Great experience with Lauren. Very flexible with doing a last min meet & greet and working around my kitty’s medication schedule. Left everything tidy (both kitties are messy eaters). Judging from the photos/updates I could see that my senior furbabies were well taken care of and happy. Would def use Lauren again.”
“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!”

About: I've been surrounded by animals all my life. Dogs especially. I helped to raise an accidental litter of nine puppies with my mom who kept four of the puppies who are very happy. I'm experienced in taking care of waste, walks, food prepping, and overall patience to help however I can. I also have experience working overnight in a boarding facility where I feed, medicate, potty, and monitor anywhere from 15 to 40+ dogs. I can assure the utmost care and attention when I'm with your little(or big) ones. I'm currently free to work whenever. I'm eager to help out where I can and will reply to requests immediately. I have a puppy of my own and he's very happy and I love taking care of him alongside my partner. I don't currently have much space to take any animals into my own home but I will be completely willing to go to a clients house. I will take note of every specific need and happily take care of any tasks asked of me.
About: I’ve been in the petsitting business for 10 plus years now, and I’ve never met an animal I didn’t like! With two cats at home, and being a regular sitter for my brother with a German shepherd and friend with a Golden and a Collie mix, I’m confident I’ll get along great with your pet, whatever their shape or size. I’ve got experience at giving out medications, making sure pups do their business on walks, and I excel at giving ear scratches and belly rubs. (: As a full-time worker (8:30 am to 5:30 pm, M-F), my availability is limited to early mornings and evenings. If you’re needing someone to check in on your pup or cat in the morning and around dinnertime, I’m your gal! During those times, I’m happy to make sure your pet is happy, healthy and fed. If I’m housesitting, I will stay overnight and give lots of cuddles! (: I completely understand that it’s hard to leave your home and pet! I will always respect your boundaries within your home and make sure I leave it better than I found it. A petsitter is often also a housesitter, and I will make sure I honor your space. With cats at home, I understand how quickly messes can accumulate, and I’m fully comfortable with cleaning even the grossest of them up. (:
“Avivah was great! Prompt communication and always reliable on each visit. My cat Frankie LOVED her - she’s so great with the animals. I would absolutely recommend booking Avivah, and she will be my first choice for my next Rover booking!”
“Kat was awesome! She came over for a meet and greet, followed all of my animals’ needs, took the cutest pictures, and communicated great through the whole process for a drop-in visit! 100 percent rebooking if we need her again! (Side-note, she didn’t let my dog’s jumping stop her from coming over and providing care, which is a plus!!)”
About: I have had all types of dogs welcome in my home , I adore them and we have fun. I currently have a little one of my own.We can bathe ,walk, cuddle or clip ...stay one night or a month , on a very short notice. All stay overs have a separate eating area, schedule varies. I walk the dogs 2 or 5 times a week, depending. We have dog beds all over the house , or they can grab a recliner with us . I have a fenced grass yard , and a relaxing porch . We have a doggie door where they can come and go as they please , but we also let them out several times a day.

Lauren is the best!!! She is so attentive to all our care instructions for our two kitties. We've had her as our cat sitter twice now and will definitely request her again. She reads our instructions thoroughly(one of our cats is on a special diet) and takes such great care. I also love that she takes lots of photos and leaves a detailed note after each visit. It puts my mind at ease while we are away from home that's for sure! 10/10 recommend!
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 $18.67 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,840 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:
- 95% 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.
