“Josh was an absolute life saver. We had a Dog Sitter (non rover) that was not coming to take care of the dogs. I messaged Josh the night before and he dropped everything to immediately go and take care of the dogs. He cleaned up everything and put them at ease. They were frantic when he got there after being left alone for so long and he calmed them down. Hes a very professional and takes the health and safety of your animals very seriously. Going out of town and leaving the dogs at home is very stressful and having someone that goes above and beyond to make you feel at ease is very rare. Highly recommend !”
“Denver was great, and we will definitely be reaching out to him in the future. He took pictures, gave updates, and made sure the dogs weren’t chewing up anything they weren’t supposed to. When we got home, the dogs were all relaxed and happy. Thank you, Denver!”
“Sean did a wonderful job and treated the boys so good. Our dogs are a little difficult and one of them is very shy. Sean was able to create a quick bond with him and they loved him! Will be using him again.”
“Paula was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, so she was very patient with us, answering all of our questions and coming over for a meet and greet. She regularly kept us updated with the most adorable photos of our kitties 🐾 We felt safe having her in our home (plus she cleaned before leaving!). We 100% will book Paula again 💖”
About: I’ve cared for animals for over 6 years and have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets. I currently care for pets of my own and have also volunteered with animals through community service. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, cleaning up after pets, providing companionship, and following specific care instructions. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because caring for animals is something I do every day. I work part-time on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but I am available before and after work on those days. I have more flexibility on Mondays, Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays for walks, drop-in visits, and extended pet care. I am reliable, responsive, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, and I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether caring for pets in your home or during visits, I provide a calm, loving environment and treat every animal as if they were my own. I also can provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Our pups had a safe and fun week with Shelby. She made sure they were fed, exercised and got lots of love and cuddle time. Our youngest pup who is still pretty shy with new people warmed up to Shelby very quickly.”
“I’m so impressed with the way Kayla took care of my babies. She not only played with them. She snuggled with them treated them as if they were her own. That is not an easy task because I have six dogs and three chickens but she did everything they all needed Made sure they knew they were loved and kept my house spotless. Another thing that’s not an easy task. I would recommend Kayla to anyone that wants their babies taken care of in a loving and caring manner.”
“Amazing! We didn't have to worry about a thing. It's usually hard for us to go on vacation and stressful to find someone trustworthy. We were very happy with Rhonda!! Thank you so much!!”
“Alice was wonderful with Fennel! I really appreciated that she was proactive with communication, updates, and photos and was flexible when I had to shift my plans. Thank you for taking such great care of Fennel Alice! I would definitely book Alice again.”
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and to say we were nervous would be an understatement. After meeting Caitlyn, though, we immediately felt at ease. She is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We have two dachshunds with very different personalities. Newton is outgoing, but Augustus is much more cautious and takes time to warm up to new people. Caitlyn respected his space from the very beginning, and before long he was curled up next to her in bed! Seeing him trust someone outside of our family meant everything to us. Throughout our trip she kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious our boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience. We would absolutely trust Caitlyn with Augustus and Newton again and will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boys! ❤️🐾”
About: Experienced Pet Caregiver with Hands-On Puppy Raising Experience, Reliable Feeding and Walking Schedules, and a Strong Commitment to Loving, Attentive Pet Care. Dogs have been apart of my daily routine my entire life so any aspect of taking care of them has been experienced by me! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and experience caring for animals every day. I recently graduated from undergrad and am free all summer before starting graduate school, so I have plenty of time to give pets consistent attention and care. I provide a safe, clean, and caring environment for pets in clients’ homes while following their routines closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I also have three dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and understanding their needs.
“Brittany did a great job and the dogs loved her, which is most important to me! They were very well taken care of and I’ve never had a dog sitter leave the house so nice either…such a huge bonus!! I’m glad we have our next trip booked with her already!”
About: Not only have I grown up around dogs my entire life, I was a dog trainer for five years and have experience as a dog groomer as well. Dogs have always had a special place with me and I have been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family. Looking forward to bringing that care to you! I’m currently working part-time and am a college student. However, mornings work great for check ins and I have a flexible evening schedule. Reach out and I’m sure we could work something out! My early mornings are Mondays when I work at 6:30 am and Saturdays I work 4am-12:30pm. Wednesdays and Thursdays I work until 9:30 pm but would be more than willing to do a check in after my shift! With my background in animal care and dog training, I have experience dealing with all varieties of dogs and cats and I love getting to know them and their unique personalities! My dog, Kai, is very important to me and I know how much trust matters when having someone check in on him and my goal is to be that person for you and your pets!
“Ashley was kind, responsive, and took great care of my animals while house sitting. She went above and beyond with making sure the house was in good shape before I got back which I greatly appreciated. Would gladly work with her again!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for 50 years. I’ve taken care of up to seven dogs at once. I’ve had big and small dogs. All my dogs are adopted and some have had special needs. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m currently available to watch or board all week. I love taking dogs for walks. I have a fenced yard. Currently I don’t have any dogs but occasionally I watch my daughters dog. Even though I don’t have dogs I make sure all gates are closed and secured.
About: I have two boxers that are ages 12 and 9, so I am used to both high energy pups and those with lower energy who may need a proper medication schedule. I recently graduated from University, and I have a flexible window for pet care and related services. Caring for your lovely pets would be my main focus. I will follow all instructions left to me about your pet care. I understand that your pet's routine is important. I truly enjoy getting to know these furry companions.
“Brittany took excellent care of our house and pets while we were out of town. I was very impressed by her professionalism and communication while we were away. We came home to a spotless house and very happy animals. She went above and beyond and we’re looking forward to having her back.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,008 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Youngville. 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 Youngville 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 Youngville 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 Youngville 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 Youngville. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
