“Kaleigh really stepped up when the previous sitter canceled without even so much as a message. She obviously has a history of working with dogs. She was informative and easy to contact. I would definitely recommend and will keep her at the top of my list next time I need a sitter.”
“Claire was fantastic! She communicated thoroughly, she was prompt with her drop in visits. She understood the special care needed for our cats and she asked questions to ensure she was going to give the proper care.”
About: I’m Emily! A little about me: I love to run, lift, paint, and read. I am currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh studying Speech Pathology and Audiology who’s home for the summer! I've been a pet owner myself for about 5 years now. My family currently has three cats and has had a dog and another cat in the past. Within the last seven years I have dog and cat sat for a lot of my extended family and friends. I'm currently on the hunt for a part-time job for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands to look after and care for pets. I also have my own car and am hanging out with friends a lot, so I am always around. I am very diligent with making sure doors and windows are shut and locked to ensure that your pets do not go in or out (if they're indoor pets/ not on a leash) as I have to do that with my own pets! I also realize as it grows hotter, animals become dehydrated and hot as well, and I am careful to make sure water bowls are filled, and there is water during walks as well.
“Abby Jo ROCKS!!! She came into our home, and immediately “friended” my kitties, who normally would run from strangers. During her visits, she kept me informed every step of the way. She took time to play with them, and took photos that she forwarded to me. Abby Jo took care of my kitty who needed eye drops in her eye while I was gone. She cleaned up an oopsies, and really treated my place as if it were her own. I would highly recommend her if you’re looking to go out of town. I feel comfortable now knowing that I have Abby Jo to take care of my Kids.”
“Rebecca is great! Came out for a meet and greet, took care of our pets for a week and did a great job! We have older dogs and they need extra attention and medication, Rebecca took great care of them even brought our packages in from the porch. We will definitely use her again to watch our pups”
“Mary was excellent with our cats! We have two cats with very different personalities and she was wonderful with both. She gave us detailed updates about how they were doing, and we knew they were in good hands!”
“Thank you for taking good care of Gigi again. And cleaning up after her! I will definitely use your services again, I love the pictures you send, and feel so comfortable that you’re with her.”
“Allison was great with our dogs while we were away! I could tell they both really loved her! She made sure to send lots of pictures and spend time with our dogs during her visits. I highly recommend!”
“Mallory has visited with our puppy on three separate occasions since we first got him. She is wonderful! It's great to know he is in such good hands when we aren't able to be home.”
“Renae was outstanding. This was our first experience with Rover and it couldn't have went better. She was always on time and offered to do other things in the house. She sent us pictures and updates about the dog. The most important thing is that she was wonderful with our dog. You can not go wrong with hiring Renae to watch your pups. She is first class. A+”
About: I’ve been passionate about working with dogs since I was 11, when I began training my own dog, Oliver, in both obedience and agility at B&D Creekside. I’ve continued training and competing in agility for the past seven years. Additionally, I have experience working at See Spot Run Doggy Daycare, where I was a keyholder responsible for the care and supervision of multiple dogs throughout the day. I also have hands-on pet sitting experience, including check-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive, and experienced care for every dog I meet. I have plenty of availability this summer for pet care since I’m currently on break from school and only working part-time at Starbucks. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to accommodate a variety of schedules, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and safety. I’m experienced with all breeds and confident handling reactive dogs, thanks to my work at a doggy daycare and my own two reactive pups. I read body language closely to ensure every pet feels secure and understood.
“Vivian has been fantastic! I got a puppy and need alot of help with my little girl when I am at work, and she has been wonderful! Checking in on her, helping with potty training. She really does love my Olive too! I am so happy I've found her, and will continue to use her to check on my puppy when I work. It gives me a great piece of mind knowing I have her!”
About: I have taken care of animals and pets since I was young. Growing up, we had puppies, dogs, cats, rabbits and chickens. With my children we had guinea pigs, hamsters, and cats. I currently work full time but I have a full hour for lunch to stop by and care for your pets. I can do drop ins or stay at your house, whatever is needed to make sure your pet is safe and loved. I have two cats at my house. They are well loved and follow me everywhere. I make sure they have nutritious food and clean water always. I have helped with dogs, making sure they are safe when out walking. I make sure they are given the right amounts of food and always have water. As a pet lover, I want to give them companionship, love, and security while their "parents" are away.
About: I do work full-time, but am home in the evenings. I LOVE animals, but do not feel that I have the time needed to be a 'full time' caregiver. This is perfect for my lifestyle! I would treat your pet like a part of my family. I've always had dogs growing up and love having them as companions. I would walk your pet in the mornings and evenings. Looking forward to meeting you and your special pet!! I can accommodate special requests and am happy to answer any questions that you might have. References are available upon request. Thank you for reading my profile. I currently work full time, but would love to come and stay with your pet to provide day and nighttime companionship. I would adhere to the schedule for your pet and would not adjust (no people food, etc). I would let your fur babies out in the morning, again at lunch time, and would be at your residence for the rest of the day and night, starting at 4:30pm on workdays, and all day and night on the weekends. I would care for your pets as if they were my own. I take pet sitting very seriously and want to be the person that you could depend on to look after your fur family.
“Amber has been a reliable and trustworthy caretaker of our dogs. She has been a great communicator and really cares about the well being of Ernie and Polly. I never feel anxious when I need to use this service because I know our dogs are in good hands with Am er!”
About: I’ve only seriously taken care of dogs on my own for the past 6 years. My neighbor has hired me many, many times over the many years we have known each other to take care of her pets, but on my own she has hired me for just about the last 6 years. I’ve taken care of 2 dogs at once and have given oral meds to dogs before. i work full time, but i can 100% make time for all your pet sitting needs! i work 12-9 MON/TUES/THURS/FRI/SAT. i can come in the mornings to watch your furbabies while also coming on my lunch to check in. we can always work out a schedule in which works for us both I can do just about anything you need for either dogs or cats! Once you show me what i to do for your pet, I’ll be able to help them be as comfortable and happy as possible!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,095 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Forbes Road. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forbes Road. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
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.
