About: As a Star Sitter, I have a proven track record of providing a calm, safe, and fun home environment with a high level of attention and care. Because I work from home, your dog receives consistent supervision, multiple daily walks, and plenty of engagement throughout the day. We love hosting dogs - your pup will be treated like part of the family 💕 I intentionally host one dog at a time (or dogs from the same household) to maintain a safe, low-stress environment and provide individualized care. The dogs in my photos are past guests and are not present during your dog’s stay. Before You Book: Important Requirements To ensure a great experience for everyone, I only accept dogs who are: • Fully house trained • Friendly with humans (no history of aggression) • Able to safely pass other dogs on walks • Comfortable in a new environment (no destructive behavior or significant anxiety) • Able to sleep through the night If your dog has anxiety, reactivity, or behavioral challenges, please be transparent so I can determine if this is the right fit. New Clients • Meet & greet required • First-time bookings: a one night trial stay is strongly recommended before longer stays I am home based and am an avid walker, plenty of availability. Your dog would not be left alone for more than a few hours when I have to run out for errands or appointments. I’m a homebody! I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood in the north hills with flat, easy loops for walking. I also have a fenced in, flat backyard that dogs love to play in. I have a 12 year old son who loves dogs and will gladly play with your pup.
“My cats are very shy when meeting new people and Katelyn was wonderful in understanding and making sure they got the care they needed regardless. She made sure that they were eating and drinking and sent pics and updates to a worried cat mom! Thanks Katelyn :)”
“I have been working with Stephanie for about a year now, so I think it is safe to leave her a great review She is fabulous Easy to schedule with, she is flexible and prompt Always communicates and replies to messages quickly Always sends pics of my pup & provides updates Sig loves her visits Highly recommend”
About: I have loved and cared for animals my whole life. I currently have three dogs and one cat of my own and have always grown up surrounded by animals. Since I was 13 I have cared for neighbors and friends pets where I have gained experience with playful puppies, big breed dogs, and giving medication to senior pets. I also have experience volunteering at animal shelters and have been exposed to many different personalities from all types of pets! I am currently studying biology at a local pittsburgh college where I have classes in the afternoon. For the most part my schedule is pretty flexible and I am available mornings, late afternoons, and evenings! I have three dogs and one cat of my own at home so I know how to make pets feel comfortable and well loved. I will make sure to provide a safe and trusting environment wherever I go. I’ll send regular photo updates through the app communication and ensure I have all of the pets history before every stay.
“Erika was great with my very shy cat. She was extremely patient and willing to try a number of different strategies to get my cat out of hiding. I really appreciated that she was open to suggestions from me, and eventually, a video chat with my cat during her visit did the trick. Now they are best buddies! She follows instructions well and is a responsible pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
“Always a pleasure having Brian take care of our babies. They were a bit naughty and got into our Christmas tree and he cleaned up after them and made a barrier so that they couldn’t get to it. Glad to know we won’t come home to a down tree!”
About: My name is Miranda, and I am an animal lover with previous pet sitting experience looking to help take care of your cute critter in your absence! I have extensive experience with cat ownership and pet sitting, including senior and medically complex felines. I also have some experience with pet sitting for dogs and other small pets, like birds and fish. If you are in the Pittsburgh area and are looking for someone kind, trustworthy, dedicated, and caring to look after your animal, I am here to help! :) I have very free availability at the moment, as I run my own business for work and make my own hours! Pet care is actually the crux of my personal daily routine. My own cute critter, my cat Flower, keeps me quite occupied at home, whether it's feeding her on schedule, giving her lots of playtime, or just snuggling up for some brushing. Rest assured, I'll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I would love to have an introduction meeting with you, virtual or in-person, so we can discuss your pet's needs, preferences, and schedule! Every pet is different, and it is very important that I understand your cute critter's individual personality so I can give them the quality care they deserve. During the introductory meeting, I will be sure to ask specifics about diet and medication, as well, so that no changes are made to their regular routine. I work hard to be timely and courteous by keeping pet owners updated about their cute critters while away, and will always make sure to include some pictures for you to enjoy! I make sure that I am accessible around the clock in case any questions or concerns arise while you're away.

I have a genuine knowledge for doggy language and a vibe with kitties. Let me be your pets new best friend and ease both pet and human anxiety ☺️ Im currently working part time seasonally and will be free to play, walk or stay with your furry friend most days of the week. If you like my bio we can discuss more specifically what it looks like for me to stay with your pet! I’m an active and playful being that would love to walk your dog or take them on adventures in the car. I am good with daily big walks or runs inside a fenced yard. I love to train basic obedience like sit stay and heel. Crate trained?-no problem! Free roaming with boundaries- again, no problem!

“Meredith was prompt and conscientious for every visit. Even with our very shy cats, she managed to get a picture of each one each day to reassure us that they were in good hands. Highly recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Allison Park
Abigail is great! Our young Chihuahua (also named Abigail) is very leery of new people. Abigail took the time to get to know her and build trust. To us that is priceless. Our dog also has Addison's disease, and it is comforting to know Abigail is a nurse and comfortable giving her needed daily meds. We highly recommend her even if it means sharing her with others. You won't regret choosing her to care for your beloved pets.
Marissa was amazing with my Pup Splash. He can be a nervous boy and she was very patient with him and he warmed up to her in no time. He is also deaf and Marissa took the time to learn his signs so that she could communicate with him. I felt very confident with Marissa caring for Splash and will definitely be hiring her again!!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Allison Park stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Allison Park 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 Allison Park with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
