“Amanda was amazing to my Ottie!! She went above and even cleaned my cats litter box haha! She definitely cares about my pets and always kept me updated!! Ottie is a very shy dog but warmed up to Amanda by day 2!! 5 stars!!”
“Cailynn was so great with our puppy!! She was always super quick to respond and super flexible with her schedule to make sure she could make time for him. A bonus she always got the silliest pictures of our guy . Highly recommend”
“Elise is definitely the best sitter I ever had. Each day she showed up on time , played with my Toffi and sent me tons of pictures and updates so I could relax and enjoy my 8 days vacation. If you need a very reliable person for your pet Elise should be your choice Thanks again”
“Abriana took the best care of our Samson. He can be very shy especially when away from us and we could tell through all the pictures of videos we got throughout the stay that he was comfortable with her. Abriana took great care of Samson and kept us updated all weekend.”
“Sarah is by far my first choice when I need a pet sitter. I have used her services on several occasions. During that time, she stayed in communication with me, sent photos, kept my pet areas clean at home, and eliminated the stress of being away without my pet. Above all, Sarah is trustworthy and my pets love her. I would be happy to provide personal references upon request!”
“It was great to have Cori drop in on my pup. She was very patient with his high energy. She followed all instructions and I didn't have to worry about how my pup was doing”
“Hadley was timely, followed my instructions and was very nice to my dogs. She even put up with their shenanigans when they saw their doggy friends and went crazy! She will be my go to dog walker when needed.”
“Lindsay looked after our large breed dog and our cat during a recent vacation. We did 2 drop in visits per day and one walk per day which was perfect. Lindsay followed the instructions, modified as needed and generally took wonderful care of both of my girls. Both Pets have nuances that Lindsay understood and worked with and around. Lindsay is professional, On time, and communicative. I was able to leave for vacation knowing that my pets had the best care possible! As much as I would love to gate-keep this amazing woman, she is worth her weight in gold. I would also recommend booking some pre-vacation walks so that your sitter and animals get to know each other - and you can get to know your sitter. By walk #2, my very shy dog was showing Lindsay so much affection. Lindsay was wonderful with her right from the start. Book Lindsay - you wont be disappointed!! She is amazing ( and I'm picky!!!!) - 10 out of 10 wonderful!!”
“thank you for watching my Cleo girl for me, Mandie! you were perfect and it made my day getting to see pictures of her!! Cleo clearly loved you so much! I will be recommending you to friends for sure! 🫶🏻”
“Myah did a wonderful job with our Stella! When I walked in, Stella was like "oh you're here," which is the perfect and desired response when any of us return. Stella should know she is safe at home and whoever walks through that door will take care of her. And Myah did very well, meeting our girl's needs in our neighborhood. Will definitely rebook!”
“Lauren was open to a thorough meet and greet prior to watching our two kitties, and she took the biggest weight off our shoulders while we were away. She sent plenty of updates, gave them their favorite treats, and lots of loving and play time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for loving them like your own! They’ll be excited to see you next time!”
“Abigail was amazing! My kitty is a little shy and nervous with people at first but she warmed to Abigail on the first visit. Abigail was detailed in sending me updates and took care of my sweet kitty and home with care and respect. It took a lot of stress of my mind knowing my fur baby was taken care of and comfortable in my absence. I will be messaging Abigail the next time I am out of town.”
“Laura was excellent to our furbabies! She took care of our elder kitty who needed meds administered daily and he responded well to her care. We will definitely use Laura again in the near future !!”
“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!”
“Abby, was so great with our Sailor. She has a friendly, confident and warm way with dogs! Sailor loved her right away when they met. I could tell how excellent her caregiving was as he did all his routines great with her-- a walk, bedtime routine, ate his meals, was calm and great when we got home. He is used to us being around and I hadn't left him for an overnight for some years, so it is all the more impressive that he adjusted so quickly to Abby. Also, we loved getting the detailed updates and pictures! We are so happy we were able to have Abby help us for these couple of days and know Sailor will want to have her back! Thanks for taking care with all our little notes about things, Abby! Hope we can have you back soon!”

Abriana took the best care of our Samson. He can be very shy especially when away from us and we could tell through all the pictures of videos we got throughout the stay that he was comfortable with her. Abriana took great care of Samson and kept us updated all weekend.
Jacqueline was amazing! She was very responsive from the first moment we reached out to her about booking, and we even had a meet and greet so our pup could get familiar with her in advance. Our pup has a lot of energy, and she always got creative with ways to give him mental stimulation and exercise — even if it was storming and he couldn’t go outside. She even offered to stay a little longer during visits to keep him company and make sure he was okay when he started having some tummy issues. I appreciate all the updates and photos she sent after each visit, and he always looked happy in every photo. I would highly recommend Jacqueline and would definitely book her again!
Kristin was a joy to work with ! Our 12 year old ‘scardy cat’ (Mia) warmed up to her during the check-ins while we were away. Mia is so attached to her humans, we hated to leave her alone, but Kristin gave us confidence during our meet & greet that Mia would feel cared for. This was our first experience with Kristin, and we found her to be the total Rover package – very communicative, kind, reliable, conscientious, mature, experienced, and accommodating. She clearly has a passion for animals and did not hesitate to do extra things (i.e., making four consecutive visits over three days, picking up our mail, checking on the house, and more). We received immediate text updates and photos to put us at ease, and we are so thankful we found Kristin on Rover ! We highly recommend her and look forward to our next trip away knowing we can count on Kristin to make our Mia comfortable.
Kathleen is always an incredible sitter as always. Punctual, communicative and caring!! She went above and beyond and happened to notice one of our faucets was running and turned it off for us as well when we were out on vacation. Kathleen is always my first ask to watch our pup because of how responsive and helpful she is!!
We were very happy having Mamie (Mary) care for our two cats! She is a great communicator, particularly when it comes to letting you know how it's going with your pets. We have a cat who is recovering from an injury and we could tell from meeting Mamie - and later from her updates - that he was in good, attentive hands! She also had to play hide-and-seek a bit to keep up with our more timid cat, but she caught onto his patterns. We're glad we were able to book her and would highly recommend!
Kristian did a phenomenal job with our little Sheba! She’s just a kitten. We’ve only had her about two months and we had our family vacation planned well before we welcomed her into our family so we were a little bit nervous about leaving her, but then I found Rover online and lead me to Kristian and I’m so glad! She took such good care of Sheba while we were away sending updates and pictures. Such a peace of mind… She even took care of our mail which we did not ask her to do but was very helpful since we didn’t have it in hold. I’m very grateful our next trip we’re gonna ask for Kristian again!
We have used Tessa previously and were so happy that she was available to drop in on our cat while we were away. She communicates well and sent us some great feedback about how our guy was doing, as well as pictures. We plan on using her again in the future!
Krista has helped us with our kitty, Mr. Man, several times now. With Krista helping out, there are absolutely no worries! As we do, Mr. Man just loves her! Krista is extremely reliable and takes excellent care of Mr. Man...and Krista always keeps us up to date with daily notes and photos. Many, many thanks to Krista!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dormont on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,725 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dormont. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dormont stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dormont. On Rover:
- 90% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
