“My first time using Ericka to watch my dog Toby and I'm very pleased with the job she did. She sent me pictures of Toby each day which I enjoyed receiving. Toby requires eye drops 5 times per day so it's a bit of work to care for him. Also pleased that the house was in good order when I returned. I hope to use Ericka again in the future.”
“I booked JaRavia at the last minute, and she was incredibly flexible with scheduling a meet-and-greet. During the boarding, she was patient and understanding with my shy dog, Bear, who can be a bit distant. She checked in frequently, and by the end of the visit, Bear had started to trust her. I highly recommend JaRavia for her kindness and love of animals!”
“We truly hit the jackpot with Natalie! From the moment she met our dog, it was clear she has a natural gift with animals. Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for dogs gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Natalie didn’t just “watch” our dog, she bonded with her, spoiled her with love, and kept her happy, active, and safe. We received regular updates (complete with the cutest photos), and it was obvious our pup was having the time of her life. We recommend Natalie without hesitation. If you’re lucky enough to book her, your dog will be in the very best hands.”
“I had the pleasure of having Hannah stay at our home and spend time with our pup Olive. I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Hannah took great care of Olive, sending me regular updates and photos of their time together. She picked up on Olive’s quirks in no time LOL! I would definitely recommend Hannah to others, we will be reaching out to her again!”
“Traisaun does a great job with our fur kids. We can always tell how good of a time they had by how excited they are when we get back. Even though we were gone for the weekend, they barely acted like we had gone to the store, which means they barely missed us not being here. Even the rabbit, who doesn’t like everyone, looks around for Traisaun after he leaves. Aside from being great with our fur kids, Traisaun is very reliable and trustworthy. We will continue to hire Traisaun as long as we can!”
“Tessa was great with our boys while we were away. She communicated everything really well with us and sent us daily update pictures. Will definitely be using her again next time we are going out of town.”
“Darra did a great job watching our dog Ozzy while we were away. We also came home to a clean house, which we really appreciated. We will definitely use Darra again!”
“Sent pictures, followed instructions, my animals and my house have little particulars that she listened to well, too! My house was clean, animals were well taken care of and happy when I got back ❤️ Would recommend Cayla and will use again! Thanks again.”
“Maddi was awesome to have watch our senior pups! She was so thorough and kind and I felt very quickly at ease with our dogs in her care. Would highly recommend anyone considering care for their fur babes to book with her and I personally hope to have her again with our pups the next time we need a sitter!”
“My first time having someone stay in my home with the pups and we couldn’t have chosen better. Sadie came for a few drop ins to meet the dogs and they took to her immediately. Sadie kept in constant communication with me and left the house as she found it. I was happy to see the pictures of very content pups.”
About: Hi, I am Mamie (I have gone by Mamie since birth but am technically named Mary) and I have had dogs, cats, and many smaller critters throughout my life, and my own pets for over 25 years. My mother was a vet tech and I grew up rescuing many animals, and continued that tradition into adulthood, so I have ample experience in a multitude of pet types and situations I work as a housekeeper around the Pittsburgh area from about 7am-3pm mon-thursday, so will not be available in the home or for potty breaks during those hours. The absolute longest I would leave a pet during a house-sitting is 8 hours on those days. All other outings/errands would be less than four hours, tops, but usually only about an hour. I am comfortable with more or less any pet, from rodents to lizards and I am not squirmish about even the creepy crawlies and slithery noodles. I can and have given almost every kind of medication there is, including subcutaneous injections, and am comfortable doing so with care and compassion and confidence. I am just starting out with professional pet sitting on Rover, I did it years ago in Seattle as a side gig on my own with Craigslist posts, and have had a couple gigs on here so far. I am clean, responsible, and trustworthy. I will only take jobs with a meet and greet beforehand, and you can get a feel for my vibe and professionalism at that time, but I am sure you will like me and feel comfortable having me in your home. As a housekeeper I am used to going into strangers homes and having a high level of integrity and care for their space and belongings. I also am very clean and fastidious. I keep things looking like I wasn't there as much as possible, and will clean litter boxes daily and change water bowls daily and do deep cleans of water fountains 1x a week. I work as a housekeeper from 7am-3pm mon-thursday around the greater Pittsburgh area. If you have multiple dogs who need round the clock supervision and you book me at least three weeks before the sitting start date, than we could work that out and I could block out my housekeeping schedule for that time and just be available for the sitting job (my rates will be increased in this situation as I am priced for my current availability, not constant care and being unable to make my normal wages during the sit). I don't do sitting in my own home since I have two cats and a husband and no fenced in yard. In clients homes I am respectful, clean, tidy, responsible and trustworthy. I mind my business and am not judgemental. I will spend lots of time loving and socializing your pets, and I set alarms and try to keep potty breaks frequent to avoid accidents and less stress.
“Jen is an amazing sitter. She is so genuinely caring and thoughtful. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of my dog and the house, and she was so wonderful about keeping me updated, even with a 6 hour time difference!”
“Liz is amazing! She is very experienced, thoughtful and communicative. We have a very anxious dog and she was so attuned to his needs and patient with him. We appreciated her updates and photos and had so much peace of mind knowing he was with someone who cared about him as much as we do. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Grace is reliable and accommodating. She communicates as much as desired and, as a bonus, takes stellar videos. My pups were happy to have her take care of them.”
About: I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I have been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for the past 10 years now and it’s by far my favorite job I’ve had yet. I’ve recently moved to Pittsburgh and looking for new furry friends to love and take care of! I’m currently in school at CCAC part time taking away my Monday and Tuesday afternoons. Also working at Urban Outfitters as a part time associate taking away 8 hours of my weekends. Other than that whenever you need me, I’ll be watching and playing with your furry animal/s! Right now with the apartment complex I’m living in they don’t allow pets. So I can travel to your house to watch your pets and stay in your home!
“Stellar! Sydney took very great care of my two dogs, including the diabetes dog/shots on while staying in my home while I was away! She communicated with me daily-even sent cute pics! House was just the way I left it! Great communication! Very capable young woman! Definitely booking her again, and gives me a lot more freedom knowing that I can trust someone with my pets!”
About: I grew up in a house of 3 or more medium/ large dogs ranging from a brittany spaniel to a greyhound and later a Jack Russell. As a teen was the go to dog sitter when my parents had to go on business trips, making sure I let them out, and fed them in their separate areas. I have house sat for 3 cats and dog. I have experience walking dogs as well as feeding them their appropriate diets. I would be happy to play with your pet and make them feel loved while you're away. More recently I have been the go to sitter for my friends sweet senior pup and his wild puppy sibling, where I worked on leash walking and teaching her how to sit. Depending on the pet and their needs I can be available whenever works for them! I will work around my schedule to make sure they are getting the time and attention they need! I care for pets like they're my own, which means taking care of them as specified. At the end of the day, I want your pet to be safe and happy!
“Chelsea was absolutely outstanding! She was incredibly responsive, punctual, kind, and professional. She even came for a meet-and-greet to help our pup feel comfortable and stayed longer than scheduled to ensure she was okay. Flexible, caring, and clearly passionate—highly recommend!”
“Theresa is a wonderful dog and house sitter! It is obvious when you first meet her that she is a total animal lover, and she assured me time and time again that my girl would be in good hands. She sent very consistent pictures and updates over the week we were away, and always asked if she was unsure about how we would like something done. Will rebook!”

Mary S.
“I'm delighted to recommend Mary S. as a pet sitter on Rover. Having watched her grow up caring for our multiple cats and dog, plus numerous foster animals, I can confidently say she has a natural gift with animals. Mary genuinely "speaks cat" - she understands their unique personalities and body language, treating each one as an individual. She's particularly attuned to pets experiencing anxiety or depression, knowing exactly how to comfort them and meet them where they're at. What sets Mary apart is her medical knowledge and experience. Growing up in a veterinary household, she learned to administer subcutaneous fluids, manage diabetic pets with insulin injections, and recognize when a pet needs professional care. She combines this technical expertise with genuine warmth - during playtime, she gets down on their level and makes every pet feel special. Dogs adore her just as much as cats do. She's safety-conscious, responsible, and has that rare quality of making animals feel instantly comfortable. Mary is completely reliable - she won't skip anything in your pet's routine - and she's great about keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so you'll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs specialized medical care or just lots of love and attention, Mary will treat them like family. She's exactly the kind of person I'd trust with my own pets. Eileen A. M.S.

Crafton pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are so grateful to have had Allison stay with our Corgi while we were away for a week. Our dog has anxiety and typically becomes very stressed while we are away, but Allison stayed at our home, followed his usual routine as closely as possible, and made sure to give him some extra love. She would check-in with us daily to let us know how things were going and would ask questions if she was unsure of something. She was respectful with our home and belongings and made sure to leave things nice and tidy for our return. As someone who tends to leave a lot of instructions when it comes to staying with our dogs, I can’t recommend Allison enough! She truly made us feel comfortable that she had things under control so that we could enjoy our vacation.
Maddi was awesome to have watch our senior pups! She was so thorough and kind and I felt very quickly at ease with our dogs in her care. Would highly recommend anyone considering care for their fur babes to book with her and I personally hope to have her again with our pups the next time we need a sitter!
Katelyn was AMAZING! It was our first time doing an in home sit but she was so accommodating with coming to meet them first and get comfortable around them. They warmed up to her immediately and were snuggled up to her the whole time. She sent frequent updates and was so quick with her responses. We will deff be using her again!! Thank you Katelyn :)
Alyssa was such a great cat sitter! Our cat has a weird medicine routine, and Alyssa was able to help us out. Not only that, but we even learned new techniques on how to administer meds from her! While we were away, Alyssa was communicative and always sending cutie pics of our sweet girl. Would highly recommend!
We had such a great experience with Courtney! She stayed at our home and took wonderful care of both our cat and dog while we were away. It was so reassuring to get regular updates and photos. Grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring—highly recommend and hope to book her again soon!
Tami was absolutely fantastic! She took exceptional care of both our senior dog and our home while we were away. She kept us updated regularly, which gave us great peace of mind. We came back to a spotless house and, most importantly, a happy and well-cared-for pup. It was such a relief to know everything was in great hands—highly recommend!
