“Alisha was an absolutely incredible dog sitter!! She went above and beyond to make sure that our 2 dogs where well taken care of over the long weekend we were away. She sent tons of photos and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated!! She also was super flexible in creating a schedule that best worked for our pups. In addition to playing, loving, and caring for our dogs she also helped with some chores around the house. I would 100% recommend Alisha to anyone.”
About: Hi, I’m Henry! ✌️😁 I am excited to get to know you and your pet to see if we are a good match! 😳😊 I personally own several well cared for Cats 🪮🙀! I have experience caring for both Dogs and Cats of Friends and Neighbors! 🏡🐶 I intend to be sensitive to your pets unique needs and diligently follow your instructions! 🫡📝 In my free time I enjoy spending time hiking and working out! Frequent walks are NO PROBLEM! 🐶🐾🏃💨 I work Tues-Sat 7am-3pm. Otherwise I’m usually available! I am comfortable staying overnights and I am happy to make sure your home stays safe and neat while you are gone. When it comes to caring for my cats I make sure they are always well groomed, stocked up on food and water and have a clean litter box. Whether I am caring for your Dog or Cat, I will make sure they have all their needs taken care of. I am also happy to take your Dog to a nearby park if that’s something you’d like. I am happy to follow any and all instructions you provide so you can enjoy your time away!
“Emma was wondeful! She quickly established rapport with our two reactive dogs. She sent updates and photos, which we greatly appreciated. Emma was respectful and kept our home tidy. We already have her booked for an upcoming trip and have recommended her to some family friends!”
“I had a wonderful experience! I particularly like that I received so many pictures. They went above and beyond and truly loved my dogs like my own. One of my dogs is anxious and they knew exactly how to handle that. I was able to not worry on vacation because of the care I received.”
About: I am a true animal lover! Growing up with both Boston Terriers and Boxers, I learned to adapt to the needs of the individual animals around me. My beloved Boston Terrier, Dorothy, was with me from puppyhood until she crossed the Rainbow Bridge at the age of 16 in 2025. My current animal squad consists of two senior kitties and two large but loving rescue dogs! I understand all animals need a little something different, and they all deserve respect and patience! My goal is to make your pets as comfortable and happy as possible. I’m a mom to a toddler and am looking for a flexible way to earn some extra income while doing something I love. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’m able to plan visits around my family’s schedule. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and their individual routine. Pets will be cared for with the utmost respect and compassion! These furry guys and gals are your family. They will receive the attention they want and deserve. All interactions will be based upon YOUR direction - what to feed, when to feed, where they sleep, etc. You may be at work or out of town, but they are still your baby and I will keep them in their routine.
“Karen was awesome! She stayed at the house during the recent snow storm and she went above and beyond. We didn't have to worry about a thing. Beckett was sad to see her go. We will definitely be using her again.”
“So pleased with the care provided for our pooch. She was well cared for, and from the outside ring camera notifications, she was super pleased too. 100% recommended. We will request him again.”
About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about making pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I grew up with dogs and have two Labradoodles back home with my mom, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m very attentive to each pet’s personality and routine—whether they’re super playful, a little shy, or a total Velcro pet who wants to be by my side 24/7. I’m also big on communication, so you can expect plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is getting lots of attention, affection, and care! I work full-time in downtown Pittsburgh during the weekdays, with the flexibility to work remotely at least one day per week and occasionally additional days as needed. I have plenty of availability throughout the week for pet sitting, including early mornings, evenings, and overnight stays, with generally full availability on weekends! I’m always happy to coordinate around your pet’s normal routine to make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship! I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away, so I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as I can! I’m happy to stick to specific feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, or any other instructions you leave for me. I’ll give them plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their personality and space. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and will always leave things just as I found them. And of course, you can expect lots of pictures and updates so you know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for!
“Chelsea was so great with our dogs, we have one that can be particularly difficult and she handled her like a dream. Great communication and updates; we will for sure use her again in the future.”
“Alexis was amazing with the our cats and dog! She sent us pictures of our fur babies everyday and was just awesome to them! I felt at ease knowing that they were in good hands! Thank you Alexsis, for the care you provided to Theia, Rue and Jules 🥰”
“There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.”
About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.
“Sydney kept us up to date with communication and pics… she made sure our 1 dog was medicated and in her thunder jacket to help keep her calm thru bad thunderstorms went thru town several days in a row… Highly recommend her, tried to book her again but she did not have dates availably Thnx Sydney”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was 4 years old! From frogs and lizards, to rabbits and hamsters, to cats and dogs, caring for animals has always been my passion. I studied Marine Biology in college and began volunteering in the community as a dog walker and cat caretaker for the humane society. After graduating, I went straight into veterinary medicine, spending 5 years in emergency and critical care before transitioning into veterinary oncology, where I’ve spent the last 2 years caring for pets through some of their toughest moments. I then passed my boards to be a certified VT. For me, THIS has never just been a job. ❤️ I do this because I genuinely love animals and want every pet to feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’m here for you & your pets! ❤️ They’re my best friends too! 🐾🤍 I work 4 days during the week - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. (10 hour shifts). I consistently have Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday off. I am always willing to stop before and after my work days as well. For dogs: I love taking dogs on peaceful park adventures for fresh air and exercise, choosing quiet times with no other dogs around to keep outings comfortable, safe, and stress-free. Sometimes will take them to get a pup cup (if they like car rides and have no stomach issues). I always ask owners what their pets love the most, whether it is walks, playing fetch or enjoying a favorite snack! Cats: They deserve a space where they feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease! 🐱🤍 I strongly believe in creating a low-stress environment and letting every cat settle in at their own pace, with plenty of patience, love, and respect for their individual personality. Your kitty will have their own room to relax, a cat tower to climb, toys galore, and fresh catnip on hand for extra fun! 🌿 If your cat enjoys socializing, my very friendly resident cat and small dog are happy to offer some company, too. Whether your baby is a playful little explorer or a shy snuggle bug who needs extra time to feel at home, I’ll tailor their care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.
About: I’ve cared for my own dog for years and regularly watch friends’ pups. I’m genuinely loving, attentive, dependable, and treat every pet like family! I work from home the majority of the week, so I have plenty of flexibility to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m also always out exploring with my own dog, so I’d love to bring your pup along for walks and adventures when appropriate! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! Our home has two friendly cats, our own dog, and a large yard for supervised outdoor time. The yard is always used on a lead. I will treat your pet like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home!
About: Hi I’m Allyson! I love all kinds of animals, I’ve taken care of every kind ever since I was 9. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets while I have fun doing it! Every pet I meet has a special place in my heart ♥️ My schedule is flexible right now which gives me more time to pickup a side work to take care of your lovely pets! :) 🐾 I have a quiet home with one cat at our friendly neighborhood. I’ll always keep an eye and care for your pet when I visit/walk/feed them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crescent
Brianna was fabulous taking care of our senior dog and two cats. Our senior dog is blind so we were very hesitant to leave her but Brianna sent photos and texts of our pets while we were away and provided us with twice a day updates. I would highly recommend using Brianna.
Nicole went above and beyond caring for our senior dog and our puppy mill breeder mama who has yet to fully adapt to a loving life . During her 2wk stay, not only did she provide basic care, but also dealt with potty problems, storms, loss of power, and a bear issue which caused a major trash situation. In the end, she left our home spotless. Our doggies were very happy. We are definitely using Nicole again!
Joey and Angie were very kind and easy to work with. Joey was respectful of my home, brought in packages and mail, and kept me updated on the dogs while I was away. Communication was good throughout the stay, and it was clear that Joey cared about the dogs’ well-being. Overall, I appreciated the help and care provided during my trip.
Esmirna is kind, gentle and calming. She helped me feel reassured and secure that my three pets (2 dogs and a cat) would be well cared for and they were. We came home to three very relaxed pets and a home in perfect condition. She sent a daily update w photos and followed a not so easy routine that included multiple pet meds. She was attentive to every detail and very thorough as well as professional. We greatly appreciate her effort, care and consideration. She made things easy and void of any complications!
Jacen took care of my two Pomeranians, Meeko and Koda, while I was away in Puerto Rico, and I truly appreciated the peace of mind he provided. He was reliable and made sure their basic needs were met, which is always my top priority when I’m away from them. Meeko can be a bit protective and vocal, and Koda is more laid back and affectionate, so they each have very different personalities. Jacen handled their differences well and ensured they were cared for during my absence. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which allowed me to feel more connected and reassured while away. Overall, I’m grateful for his help and for making it possible for me to take my trip knowing my dogs were being taken care of.
Corinne was a fantastic pet sitter!!! Her communication was prompt and professional from beginning to end! Each day she would send me photos of our Goldendoodle, Sadie, along with a snippet of their daily activities. Sadie is extremely anxious and was living her best life with Corinne. If you are on the fence with hiring a pet sitter to stay at your home, be assured Corinne will do a WONDERFUL job!
We had a wonderful vacation, most in part, because we didn’t have to worry about our pups under Alisha’s care. She sent us photos and what they were up to every day. Gave them the best care! Came home to a clean home and extremely happy puppies. Thank you again, Alisha. ❤️🥰🙏

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,371 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Crescent. 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 Crescent 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 Crescent 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 Crescent 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Crescent. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
