“Ann was very nice, my dog and cat were very happy when I got home. Ann was very accommodating about staying at the house with Hank and Snowball. I’m very thankful to her for taking great care of them while I was out of town.”
“Bryce followed all care instructions for Max. It was great to receive daily pictures of Max during walks or breaks. He did a great job caring for our family pet while being away overseas. I highly recommend him and look forward to needing him again in the future. Thanks for caring for Max!”
“Sam was legit amazing. One if my dogs developed an issue while she was there (entirely unrelated to her stay) and she handled it flawlessly. He was throwing up, not eating, etc and not only did she alert me right away, but she monitored him closely throughout the day while keeping me regularly updated with detailed information. She helpfully coordinated with my emergency contact to get Rudy taken to the animal hospital and then remained very flexible as I adjusted my travel to come home early. Her communication was excellent, she was very respectful of my home (couldn't even tell someone had been there) and my pups loved her. I would 10000% hire her again.”
“Salem was an amazing choice! It was my first time having someone stay in the house to care for my pets. But he put me completely at ease. Took such good care of the babies. We have pretty specific care instructions, and he followed them to a T. He spent so much time with them. He was very communicative. He left the house immaculate. I would 10/10 use him again. If you're looking for a trustworthy amazing sitter for your pets! Salem is your person!”
“David was a fantastic sitter for my dog and cat. He asked questions to make sure he would maintain their normal routines when needed and sent regular updates/photos. They were both very well taken care of and very comfortable with David, which I can say confidently as my cat didn’t even give me the cold shoulder when I came home (as he’s been known to do). Thanks so much David, hopefully you’ll be available the next time I need a sitter!”
“Rachel was a wonderful in-home dog sitter. In addition to being a perfect house guest, she was so kind and caring to my senior pup. She was communicative and left everything in perfect order. Ziggy says he would highly recommend her and would give her 6 stars if he could!”
“Teneisha is wonderful! She is very patient and caring. My boy suffers separation anxiety and is very hesitant with new people, but Teneisha was there making sure he had his food and water and was well cared for. She is a very intelligent and responsible woman, who made me feel very comfortable leaving for a couple of days and not having my own anxiety about Reuben's well being. I highly recommend Teneisha!”
“Highly recommended! Elayna was wonderful. She made sure to keep us updated on when she got to our place, walked and fed our puppy, and even our puppy’s naps. She sent us photos and even in the pictures it looked like our puppy, Lima was smiling with her there. Elayna was flexible, communicative, and very kind. We will definitely be booking her in the future for Lima.”
“She was wonderful with my dogs and did a great job following all of my instructions. I have a lot of dogs, so there is a lot to keep track of, and she handled everything exactly as I asked. She also left my house absolutely spotless, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book her again!”
“Autumn did a great job with Mack & Aries while I was traveling on a work trip. They were both comfortable with her and I will not hesitate to use Autumn again for future house sitting needs.”
“Jackie is a fantastic sitter! Dexter warmed up to her quickly and she took such good care of him. She was extremely attentive to his needs and great at communicating and providing updates on how he was doing each day. I really appreciate how she went the extra mile to make sure Dexter felt comfortable, safe and happy! It was amazing to have peace of mind while being away that my dog was in great hands. Will definitely be hiring Jackie again!”
“Lyla did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy. My dog is itty and needed lots of out door breaks and play. Lyla was able to accommodate to my puppy’s many puppy needs. I would absolutely use Lyla’s services again and would recommend her to anyone who needs support caring for their pet.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs most of my lifetime. I'm responsible, loving and believe pets can bring joy to your everyday busy life.They become part of your family. I am a retired teacher and mom of twin teenage boys. I have plenty of time during the day to care for my furry friends. My current home does not have enough space for me to care for pets in my space, but I have np problem coming to yours.
About: I've been around animals my entire life: cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, and small animals like ferrets, chinchillas, mice, etc. I love all animals but especially cats. I have experience fitting in care around my working schedule and would love to meet your pets! I currently work full time but I am available for overnight pet and house sitting - if you would like more care during the day, my fiancee is available for dog walking and drop-ins during the weekday. I am happy to care for your pets in your home, whether through dropping in and making sure they're fed, watered, and happy, or through overnight house sitting. I expect to follow any feeding instructions, medication schedules, regular playtime, or light household duties like collecting mail or taking out trash.
About: I've cared for dogs since I was young and have handled dogs both large and small. I've cared for cats since 2019, I am newer to them technically, but I love how different they can be. I run my own business, so making my own hours allows me a lot of wiggle room on doing check-ins or rearranging my day to allow for walks. My home is a temple to good vibes and my happy lil buddies (Sprout and Tansy) get along with everyone they've met so far.
“Emma did wonderfully with our dogs and had a real connection. Very responsive and allowed us to extend our stay by a day last minute due to a personal family emergency. Highly recommend!”
“Emily was excellent, efficient, and punctual! She did a great job taking care of our 3 fur babies and promptly communicated with us the entire time. She made us feel safe that our 3 little kids were going to be well taken care of. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future!”
“Jessika was fantastic with our senior papillon, Ziggy, during a in-home stay over a long weekend. She did a meet and greet before our trip and Ziggy took an instant liking to her. She is excellent with animals. She gave us regular updates, including many pictures and videos (highlighted by a “We are Penn State” cheer). We were able to enjoy our vacation worry free knowing our dog was in great hands with Jessika. Bonus, I think she left the house even cleaner than how we left it for her!”

Jackie was awesome! Can't recommend her highly enough. She was awesome with my dogs and I also had her stay at my home and she was wonderful with the place. She took all the time needed before the stay and dog care started to get to know the situation and make me feel really comfortable with her in my space and caring for my dogs and she was on top of everything and proactive about communication. I'll definitely be using her again!
Andy did an awesome job house sitting my dog for 11 days. My dog loves him. He took him to dog parks, walked him daily (while performing training as he still needs it), maintained his daily routine as best as possible within his own schedule, and kept me updated daily with notes, pictures, and videos. Andy is a true professional in the business. He communicates well, gives me options, and listens to my feedback/concerns. I highly recommended working with him.
Therese is a repeat sitter for our 2 dogs in our home and this time was awesome as always. We got regular updates with photos and the dogs always seem super happy! Great communication and conscientiousness, so we have total peace of mind while traveling that our dogs are in good hands. One of our dogs was finishing up a medication and she handled that as well. Will definitely book again next time we are traveling.
Sandra was an absolute angel and took incredible care of our entire team of animals! She was so loving, attentive, and caring, and her communication was wonderful throughout our time away. We felt completely at ease knowing our beloved animals were in such good hands. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets! 🤍
Savannah and Silas took amazing care of my dog, Charlie, a 13-year old Goldendoodle, for 10 days while I was on a family trip overseas. This was the first time Charlie has been left overnight with anyone but family, so I was nervous. Savannah and Silas sent multiple updates a day, videos, and lots of fun pics, so I was always informed about how Charlie was doing. Charlie is a senior dog who takes medication and has dietary restrictions, and Savannah and Silas were excellent with his meds and making sure Charlie maintained his special diet. They were terrific asking questions about Charlie's needs and responding to them, and inquired about whether my flight home was on time in case they needed to take care of Charlie. I think Charlie had more fun with them than when I'm home lol as he got to spend time on the porch watching birds and passersby. As a bonus, the house looked great when I returned home from my trip. I highly recommend Savannah and Silas for trustworthy, caring, dependable, and highly communicative pet- and home-sitting.
Elise did a great job caring for our cat, Sujuk, while we were out of town! We received twice a day updates with photos, which made us feel at ease and confident that Sujuk was in good hands. When we arrived home, the house was well-cared for and Sujuk was in good spirits. We would definitely hire Elise again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Braddock Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,397 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Braddock Hills. 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 Braddock Hills 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 Braddock Hills 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 Braddock Hills 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
