About: I’m not just someone who “likes dogs”. I grew up with a Golden Retriever. From puppy energy to senior comfort, I’ve been around it all. I’ve also cared for larger, strong-willed breeds like a Rhodesian Ridgebacks and cane corsos…so I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and personalities. Whether your dog needs structure, patience, or just someone who can match their energy, I adapt to what they need. I treat every dog like they’re my own. I pay attention to routines, behavior changes, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have been a caretaker and dog sitter for a few years. Needless to say, taking care of people’s loved-ones comes second nature to me. My night shift schedule at the VA allows me to be available all day to give your pet the attentive care that he/she needs including keeping them company, letting them out for potty breaks, walks,feeds,etc. With house-sitting, I will leave your home the way you left it. I will ensure that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well-fed. I will observe your pets closely. If I notice anything “off” about your pets, you will be notified immediately so that appropriate action is taken if needed.
“Caitlyn is great with cats! She made sure our two were fed, watered and played with! She interacted with them and sent us photos too! I highly recommend her and will hire her again in the future😊”
“Hannah was friendly and awesome! She had no problems getting to know our doggos at her first visit. She wrote detailed notes about her visits and always provided cute photos of our dogs. She kept us updated about how things were going while we were away from home. Highest recommendation for Hannah! Thank you!”
About: I’ve raised my 3 cats for almost 3 years now. I’ve also walked family friends dogs and baby sat them too. I love all animals equally I am currently working part time so I will have as much time needed to take care of any animals when I am not working. I treat every animal gently and respectfully. I make sure to stay on top of things like feeding and cleaning up after the pets. Listening to the pets is also crucial for me
“Amber was absolutely wonderful! My cats immediately liked her the first time she came. She's very punctual and great with communication. She also made sure to take a ton of photos when visiting them. I had absolutely no worries about my cats while on my trip. I will definitely have her watch them again the next time I travel.”
“Helen was very flexible, friendly, and great with our two cats. We had a last minute change to our plans and she was very accommodating to this change. Look forward to using her again!”
About: I cared for my family dog for years, and other dogs in my home neighborhood until I moved out. I get so much joy from being around animals. I have never come across a stray cat that didn't want to be my friend. I don't currently live with any pets which is why I am eager to petsit so I can spend time with some wonderful dogs and cats. I have a lot of free time during the week for extended stays or multiple drop-ins in a day. I love animals and I will give your pet all of my attention, and be sure they are loved and cared for. I am a respectful guest and I will always leave your home cleaner than I found it
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.
“Chelsea was amazing and helped me out at the last minute when I really needed someone. She was incredibly responsive, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated throughout the visit and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!”
About: I will love and take care of your pet as if it was my own. I love all types of animals and am willing to do all I can to make them feel loved when their owner is not around. I am very reliable and will be there whenever your pet needs me. I have had my own pets over the years and have also watched and cared for my friends and family members pets also. I am usually the go to person when it comes to pet sitting with all of my friends. There is not an animal that I wont love and tend to. I really hope to meet your pet and take care of them while you are out enjoying your time! If anymore more questions just ask! I currently work full time so I will do everything I can to make sure you dog gets all the love and attention. If close enough I can stop home at lunches and will make sure once I get them after work, they are fully taken care of. I will follow every instruction you leave for me, and will make sure the animals are always being watched or are in a safe enviorment.
About: Before Rover I didn’t have much experience with dogs if I’m being honest. The only experience I had prior with a dog was a baby pitbull and that was for about a year. That being said, despite the lack of experience I had, I have gained more experience from caring for dogs on Rover. My love for animals in general is why I am open to continue learning. I will still provide the same love, care and affection for a dog as I would a cat. My daily and weekly routine is very open for pet care. I am currently on maternity leave so I have lots of availability throughout my days. I treat them like their family and not strangers or “just for the money type of thing”. If the client has special requests as far as how they would want their pet taken care of, I would follow those requests and update the clients along the way.
“Kaitlyn took the time to come and meet my pets and go over their specific needs before my trip. She touched base with me during each visit and was very conscientious about making sure they received their meds and checked with me for advice if they seemed to be eating less than normal. She kept their litter box clean and fresh. I got photos from each visit to check in on them. Will definitely book with Kaitlyn again.”
About: Hi there! I’m located in beautiful Brookline, just off the boulevard and a short stroll from the park—perfect for daily doggy adventures! My home is full of charm, with spacious gated front and backyards where your furry friend can safely roam and play. I absolutely love the joy animals bring and truly enjoy spending time walking, playing, and bonding with dogs. Whether it’s at my place or yours—whatever works best for you—I’m thrilled to offer loving, attentive care for your pets while you’re away. I am pretty flexible with advance notice. If there is a particular schedule, please let me know to schedule accordingly while you are away. Thank you! Walk, play, cuddle. I have a fenced yard—with one friendly dog at my residence. If I feel they have the energy to burn, I’d go for a walk, hike, or run.
About: I am a recent new graduate Physician Assistant and looking for employment. I have always adored animals and have pet sat for friends and families’ pets over the years. As a new graduate looking for a job, I have a lot of new free time on my hands and cannot think of a better way to fill the extra time that I have and to help make a little money than spending time and caring for animals!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carnegie
Mariah is amazing! She helps care for my new puppy while I’m at work during the day, and I couldn’t be happier with her. She’s incredibly responsive, flexible, and reliable. I always feel confident knowing my puppy is in such good and safe hands. Highly recommend her!
We couldn't be happier with the care Candy provides for our dog Sophie. At 13 years old, Sophie has unique needs, and Candy handles them with remarkable patience, kindness, and attention to detail. She is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. Knowing Sophie is safe, comfortable, and loved while we're at work is invaluable. Candy is truly wonderful, and we highly recommend her services.
Hannah was friendly and awesome! She had no problems getting to know our doggos at her first visit. She wrote detailed notes about her visits and always provided cute photos of our dogs. She kept us updated about how things were going while we were away from home. Highest recommendation for Hannah! Thank you!
We had a very last minute need for a check in visit for our dogs and Sydnie was an absolute angel! She fed and walked our pups and spent some sweet time snuggling with them as well! We hope the next time isn’t quite so urgent, and can’t wait for Sydnie to visit again!
Mariah (Sage) was the sweetest and most attentive person to watch my dogs. I have two very large dogs (over 130 pounds) and they adored her. I will be using her again very shortly! She gave me photos and was just overall a 11/10. I would recommend her over and over again.
We are so thankful to have found Kasey and Alyssa! They are amazing. Very warm and friendly and know what they are doing. Our dogs took to them immediately. We feel so relieved to have found a good fit for what we were looking for in help with drop-in visits (people who know and understand older dogs, who have great communication and are kind). We will definitely be making more repeat bookings. Thank you both for being PAWsome!🐾

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Carnegie is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,548 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Carnegie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Carnegie 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.
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.
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.
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 Carnegie with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
