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
“She's so sweet checking on our cats so often when there are late work hours and vacations! She's very communicative with us and makes sure to update us on how the cats are!”
“Borb was my savior this week when I had a last minute work trip for. He was helpful whenever I was caught up with onboarding and made sure that Gizmo was safe at all times. Above and beyond!”
About: I have one cat of my own and have always grown up with cats and dogs. I have watched several dogs and cats for up to a week at a time. I’m working full time, but primarily from home so I may be available for quick weekday check ins. Otherwise, I am available evenings and weekends. I am happy to check in on your cats and/or dogs for feedings, play time, and walks! I will provide pictures as well while you’re away if you’d like.

Krista has helped out with our Mr. Man quite a few times now. Mr. Man just loves Krista and he always receives the best of care from her! We can leave home for a little while and feel assured that our beloved "kitten" is in good hands while we are away. A million thanks to Krista for all of her help!!!
This was our second time having Elise watch our 2 cats while we were out of town. Knowing they are getting excellent care while we’re away makes it so much easier. Elise is great at communicating and sending updates, and you can sense her genuine love for what she does. Our cats warm up to her quickly, and really that’s the true test! 100% would recommend her to anyone 🙂
Elizabeth was fantastic! Panda can be a little difficult at times and Elizabeth handled all her needs with ease. Went above and beyond with the pictures and updates while we were away. Would definitely recommend her to anyone else who is needing a sitter! And will be using her again, when needed!
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.
Shelby was an AMAZING sitter, even my super shy and skiddish cat opened up to her!! Great communication and picture taking while we were out of town so we were thankfully able to see all the updates with our kitties stress free :) I would definitely book with her again❤️
Caralyn is an amazing petsitter!! She is super kind and caring. She goes above and beyond to make sure that my cats are happy while I’m gone, taking lots of time to play with them and give them treats. It’s a huge relief knowing that my kitties are in good hands while I’m away!!
William was absolutely everything I was looking for!! I was in Switzerland for 8 days and was very nervous leaving my pup but I was continuously updated and kept in the loop about visits and how Loki was doing. William was VERY flexible as it was only a few days before my trip that i requested such a lengthy date for William to check in on Loki. I was updated with pictures and was reassured by William on how Loki was eating/drinking and acting every day. Loki absolutely adored Billy from the second they met. I will 1000000% be using Billy in the future for any of my needs with Loki. I couldn’t recommend him enough!!! If you need anyone, Billy is definitely the way to go!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dormont is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 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 October 2026, there are 2,637 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dormont. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dormont. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
