“Savanna did a wonderful job with our older dog. And she was willing to assist on short notice and adjust as schedules changed. A pleasure to work with! Thank you!”
“Regan was absolutely wonderful and put my mind at ease while I traveled for a conference. I have a sick cat, and she was not only understanding, but also communicative and flexible in taking care of him. She also sent tons of photos. I would have her help again in a heartbeat!”
“Brooke was a big hit with our dogs Moose and Nina. She dropped in on time, gave them tons of pets and treats and delivered meds with ease. Loved having her and hope to schedule again soon.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for dogs comes naturally to me. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a routine, or just keeping your dog company while you're away, I offer dependable, attentive care with plenty of affection. I treat every dog like my own and aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're gone. I just graduated from Auburn University, and have just moved to Pittsburgh from Memphis! My availability is extremely open and I am willing to work days, nights, weekends, or whatever is needed. At the moment, the fence in my backyard is undergoing repairs, so I’m not offering pet care in my home right now. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in their own environment, where they feel most at ease. Working in your home allows me to stick closely to your pet’s routine and provide one-on-one attention in a space that’s familiar and comfortable for them. I’m reliable, respectful of your space, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.
“Cori took great care of our two cats. We really appreciated her regular updates and photos. It means so much to have peace of mind when traveling - we look forward to hiring her again!”
“Natalie did a great job looking after Harry on short notice! Despite booking less than a week in advance, Natalie was even able to squeeze in a meet and greet the weekend before. Thank you!”
“Kristen was amazing: she was reachable, and very easy to work with. When my dog Petey was anxious and scared, she was patient with him and very calm. She was able to contact me with photos and updates throughout her drop in visit, and was very professional. Thanks for being so understanding Kristen!”
“Linnea was very responsive and helpful when things did not go exactly to plan. One of my dogs is prone to accidents and she did a good job cleaning those up as they occurred. She also helped when one of my dogs was digging a hole under the fence. She was kind, responsive, and clearly enjoyed spending time with our dogs. She followed instructions well for their care and I can wholeheartedly recommend her for drop in appointments!”
“Jess was beyond fantastic. She looked after my senior cat and was completely flexible when my cat needed medication. I also had a bit of a pet owner nightmare--the heat in my apartment broke when I was away for winter holidays--and Jess went way out of her way to get my cat to a safe place. She was super sweet, understanding, and clearly cares for pets. I absolutely recommend her!”
“Hannah did an excellent job! She was able to get our shy cat (Lex) to warm up quickly, which is amazing! With detailed communication from her, we enjoyed a worry-free trip. Thank you, Hannah!”
“Ben was great from start to finish dropping in to care for our cat Eleanor. He came over for a walkthrough and asked good questions, followed up near the start of service date, and kept us well updated for the week we were away.”
“Lauren is an amazing sitter! She dropped in on our pup for 5 days and took great care of her as well as keeping her company with snuggles and her toys! She was on time every day and followed all instructions we left for her. I’d recommend Lauren to anyone!”

“Christy is always so wonderful with Ginger. I am always nervous leaving him alone, but knowing she will be visiting is very comforting. I know he will be taken care of.”
About: I love animals, but my roommate is allergic! So I was hoping to get some time in with yours. :) I grew up with long haired weiner dogs in the family. I love playing with my friends’ pets and sometimes bring my parents to my house for a week or so to give them some respite. I like dogs of all sizes and have become familiar with cats in the past few years-taking care of my friend’s two kitties. My schedule is fairly open right now, as I am job searching and attempting to go back to school for a Masters in Social Work! I am happy to go to your home to care for your pets in their environment. I’m unable to keep them in my home for long periods of time, due to my roommate being allergic. I am happy to transport them in my car to & from appointments or trails/parks for some extra exercise!
“Kirsten was outstanding. She was communicative and easy to work with, and she persevered to make sure the cats were taken care of when the roads to my apartment were randomly closed off by the city for a parade. I will absolutely request Kirsten again.”

I never stress when she is with them because I know they are getting the proper care, love, (and possibly some extra cuddles). You will be thrilled with your decision of choosing Diana to take care of your pet.”

East Allegheny pet parents share their Rover experiences
As always, Kinsey was amazing! Kinsey has been wonderful every one of the (many) times she has come to take care of my cats. In previous reviews I have covered how reliable and conscientious Kinsey is, and how much my cats love her. So this time I’ll focus on how Kinsey is observant and communicative, about my cats and even anything that appears to have gone wrong with my house! Because my cats are elderly and one needs twice a day injections, it means so much to me that Kinsey updates me with anything that could potentially be a warning sign of health issues with my cats. I feel extremely safe leaving my cats in Kinsey’s care if I have to go out of town.
Cindy was amazing! She went above and beyond for my two cats and gave detailed updates, along with pictures and videos, every day during her visit. She also brought toys to keep them active, scooped the litter, and cleaned the litter area before my return! I am so glad I was able to have that peace of mind while I was gone knowing my cats were being well taken care of :)
Brandy was awesome to book! When my travels plans came together last minute, brandy made herself available on quick notice, and with a lot of flexibility. I really appreciated the thorough updates and photos while dropping in on my cats. I was delighted to return home knowing my cats were so well loved and cared for while I was away!
