“Alisha was available to house sit and stay with our 2 dogs over the holiday weekend. She was new to us and to our dogs and we were immediately comfortable with her staying in our home and caring for our dogs after the meet and greet. She kept us in the loop a couple times a day which gave us piece of mind and allowed us to enjoy our long weekend away with worry. We were delighted to arrive home and find the house just as we left it. Highly recommend Alisha!”
“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 :)”
“Mamie was a great sitter and I will rebook with her next time we are in need of someone to watch our pets. She checked in at least twice each day with updates and photos, took our dog for daily walks, and gave our pets the care they needed while we were away. I would recommend booking with Mamie to care for your pets.”
“Timely, responsible and accommodating to a flexible schedule. Every day I received photos, and came home to a clean house. Makala even watered the house plants. She is an absolute treasure.”
“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.”
“Cynthia did a great job taking care of our senior dog, Luna. She communicated with us and sent us lots of pictures! She also left our house very clean and helped out with a few extra tasks which was much appreciated! We would recommend Cynthia and plan to use her again in the future! Thank you Cynthia!”
About: I’m an experienced in-home pet sitter and lifelong animal lover with 17 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, and abilities. I’ve raised and cared for everything from energetic puppies and kittens to beloved seniors. My own Westie, Jack, is currently 17 years young! Through caring for my own animals over the years, I’ve gained valuable experience providing specialized care, including: * Administering oral medications (pills and liquid medications via syringe) * Administering prescribed subcutaneous fluids * Ear cleaning and administering ear drops * Assisting mobility-impaired dogs with support harnesses and wheelchairs * Some experience with canine bladder expression and caring for paralyzed dogs My experience with senior and special-needs pets is especially personal. When my German Shepherd, George, became paralyzed during the final year of his life, I learned firsthand how to help him navigate daily life with limited mobility. Today, my senior Westie, Jack, occasionally needs extra assistance getting around, so I’m familiar with using support harnesses and carrying aids to keep him comfortable and included in everyday activities. These experiences have taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of recognizing each animal’s individual needs. I understand that some pets require a little extra attention, while others simply need a dependable companion to keep their routines familiar. Whether your furry family member enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a quiet afternoon of companionship, I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality, abilities, and established routine. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide the same kindness, patience, and attention I’d want for my own animals, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. From playful puppies to golden oldies, every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I offer flexible scheduling for in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I especially welcome overnight and extended stays, and I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s established routines, including feeding, exercise, medications, and companionship. I understand that every pet and household has unique needs, so I encourage open communication before booking to make sure my availability and your expectations are a great match. My calendar will reflect my current availability, and I’m happy to discuss upcoming dates in advance! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own homes, I strive to maintain their familiar routines and environment while providing plenty of attention, affection, and appropriate activity. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, household rules, and any special care requirements. I’m particularly attentive to senior pets and animals with mobility challenges, ensuring they receive the patience, assistance, and supervision they need. I also believe communication is essential to building trust. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are doing well. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I’d give my own, leaving things clean, secure, and just as I found them.
“Kacy is very sweet and she took great care of our two pups over the holidays. Kacy kept me informed and sent photos of my pups while we were away to let us know they were doing well. I will use Kacy again and would recommend her for pet sitting.”
“We were nervous to leave our 4 dogs (Great Pyrenees, Golden Retriever and two Miniature Dachshunds) for a week but Gabby made us feel very comfortable with the whole situation! She sent us daily pictures and communicated with us whenever there was a concern or question. Our dogs all loved her and she took great care of them! We highly recommend Gabby for taking care of your animals large and small!”
About: First, I have had cats in my home my whole life. I have had dogs in my home early in childhood. I watched the dogs of my friends and family throughout all of childhood and early into adult hood. Currently I just have one orange kitty and volunteer actively in my community! I am happy to hold down the fort while you are out of town to keep your furry family fed, watered and well loved (including lots of brushing if your animal enjoys that!!) ! I've never had a problem with any pet! Even the quote unquote "mean dogs"! I'll treat your home with the upmost care and respect, and do offer cleaning services as well! Heading out for an emergency? Holidays? Need your bathroom "terminally cleaned"? Dishes taken care of after you leave me with the care of your pet and trust of your home? I can make sure the day of your return that your Shower, tub, sink, toilet etc are cleaned to hospital grade standards! All dishes cleaned, vents dusted, ceiling fan blades wiped (I'm tall lol!) Your dog and or cats will be given round the clock care and attention you expect as if I was treating it like my own animal. Pay or no pay!! While currently I am only offering house sitting services, you can expect dogs to be taken out as frequently as needed. Walked, fed on time and cuddled. Poop removed from yard, etc. It's not a house cleaning service, but aside from sitting for your loved one, I will also be a guest in your home and will make sure it's tidy and kept tidy! Cats litter boxes will be checked multiple times daily, fed on time, and water kept fresh. Safety trust and environment.. I have a clean background, clearances, and volunteer for nonprofits of all kinds in my community! I am a good community member and your home and loved furry family member will always be safe and well cared for under my care!
“Teresa did an amazing watching our two doggies while we were on vacation. She throughly asked questions about the pups and our home prior to the trip. She was communicative during the stay and sent lots of pictures! Our trip ended early and she was flexible with our change of plans. We had no concerns about our dogs and our home while we were gone. We are so grateful!!!”
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
“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: 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.
“Gretchen was the most fantastic sitter I could have ever asked for. We learned we needed coverage last minute, and that was no problem for Gretchen. She set up a meet and greet to learn the dogs habits and needs and make sure the chemistry was on point. Then she had them Covered for the whole weekend. Sending regular updates and pictures. We loved the pup-date pictures and the “day in the life” pictures we got! She also took care of our shakey baby pup through a thunderstorm. 10/10 will 100000% be rebooking Gretchen when we need help!”
“Francesca was so sweet. She did an excellent job caring for Sarge, going above and beyond by taking him on extra long walks (which are his favorite!) and was great with communication/sending pictures and updates. She also left the house spotless!!”
About: Look no further for a responsible, loving companion for your pet. I love every animal as if it were my own. I have a senior small dog of my own, and before that I had experience walking and caring for my neighbors' dogs when I was younger. Outside of Rover, I have multiple clients I regularly house-sit for with pups of all ages/sizes. I've also volunteered with shelter dogs! I also have experience with other animals if required. In my home I have 3 wonderful cats as well as my dog! I've worked with rabbits, dogs, cats, turtles, and am eager to learn about anything else. My top passion is pets. My availability is flexible, but I prefer a heads up at least a week in advance to coordinate accordingly. I am also a trained groomer, so I have experience in all grooming aspects, dog handling, and dog body language. My own pup is reactive, so I am incredibly comfortable and confident in handling your pet if they have behavioral issues as well. DISCLAIMER: I require a meet and greet prior to any daycare stays in my home, for everyone's comfort. Everyone's safety is of the utmost importance, including your pets' and mine. While one of my cats is very elusive, the other loves dogs and so does my dog! I am great about fitting some care into my day even on shorter notice. My routine is usually just hanging out at home and popping out to grab a coffee a few times, so I'm available to your pet nearly 24/7! Please let me know any special care instructions! Unless otherwise stated, I always let pups out every couple of hours, feed once a day and always give fresh water. Some dogs prefer to be leashed when outside but others will go on their own so please notify me of your preference! My main priority is keeping your pet happy and safe.
About: Hello! I’ve always grown up with dogs, and often had more than one in the house. I recently moved out on my own after college and am missing my childhood pets terribly. Now that I’m not in school, I have some more free time to fill (hopefully with dropping in to see your furry friends ❤️) and would love the opportunity to take some stress off your hands :) I work a regular 9-5 but have pretty open weekends and evenings. I would love to watch your pets during those times to give you the flexibility for weekend trips and date nights. As a walker or if you request a drop-in I’ll make sure to get your pup(s) the exercise and attention they need, and maybe a little extra love For house sitting-I’ll be sure to treat your space with the respect and care it deserves!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Edgeworth
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Edgeworth is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $44 per night. 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.

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 Edgeworth 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 Edgeworth 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 Edgeworth 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 Edgeworth. 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.
