“Mary was thorough and had good communication. 😸 I especially appreciate that she talked to my scared and hiding cat during her breakfast to try to earn her trust for the future. We give her 2 paws up! 🐾”
“Becca was always communicative and kind as she helped with me, just moving to town knowing no one, and leaving my one year old bengal. They played and had lots of fun and already plan on booking her again (and sent her to some friends). On time, lots of pictures and very well loved report from the cat!”
About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so I will be sure to send you detailed updates and photos. I have a 7-year-old blue Pitbull of my own, who has taught me so much about caring for and understanding dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have spent plenty of time caring for dogs of friends and family. Some of the different breeds I’ve taken care of are bichon frisé, English bulldog, black lab, chihuahua, miniature golden-doodle, labradoodle, dachshunds, beagles and many more! I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I know that every dog is unique, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes each pup happy and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, lots of playtime, a little extra attention, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and any special instructions so they can have the best experience possible. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a sitter. ❤️🐶 Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times. This allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve rather than trying to fit them into a busy work schedule. I’m flexible with walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. I understand that every pet and family has different needs, so I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule and make things as easy and stress-free as possible for you and your pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and making sure every pet feels comfortable in their own environment. I’m happy to care for pets in their home, where they can stay in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routine. Before each stay, I’ll take the time to learn about your pet’s personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, favorite activities, and any special instructions. I’ll make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure and will always be mindful of your pet’s safety. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a beloved member of your family. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️
“Courtney took such great care and played with our kitty Semita, highly recommend! Booked last minute trip and she was great at communicating and taking pictures!”
“I booked Sarah through Rover to check in on my pets while I was on vacation, and she was amazing! She visited daily, walked Yogi three times a day, and made sure Luna was happy and cared for. I loved getting picture updates, and she contacted me right away with any concerns. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were well cared for, which let me really enjoy my trip. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of friends and families pets for years now. Mostly walking and playing with them, but occasionally administering medication as well. Super detail oriented so happy to follow the needs of your pets! I am currently in grad school once or twice a week at night while working part time. It gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to hang with your babies. My kitties are spoiled with lots of toys and trees and scratching posts. Any dog I see will be greeted and played with immediately when permitted by the owner. Truly just want any pet to know they are cared for and valued.
“Kathryn was great with our cats (who warmed up to her faster than their usual), communicated super well, and was fastidious about care and cleaning. Would love to work with her again!”
“Rachel was a great help when I had to spontaneously leave town for a family thing. She was quick to respond and understanding of the fact that we couldn't meet in person! She took good care of my kitties while I was away. I definitely recommend you work with her if you ever need pet-caring help!”
About: I am a pet parent to my lovely Yoshi the cat and Tender the dog. I have grown up with pets. I don’t have professional skillset but I am quite good with animals. I promise to take great care of your pets I am currently working part time as a cater waiter/bartender. I have also just gone back to online school for my bachelors degree.

“Becca did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was away! Booking was such a smooth process. She was on time every day, and she sent daily photos and videos. Would definitely book 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.
“Our second time booking with Caitlyn, and again, she is such a great sitter for our cats! It’s so comforting knowing Bingi and Cleo have someone like Caitlyn checking in on them while we’re away! Thank you, Caitlyn!”
About: Hi! My name is Yanny and I am a reliable and attentive pet caregiver with strong observation and communication skills (a psychology degree helps with that!). Experienced following detailed instructions, maintaining schedules, and recognizing behavioral cues in our furry friends. I love walking animals and helping them maintain their health when owners are gone. My biggest priority is to make the animals feel safe and loved while owners are away! Im currently working a full time job at a school near the Pittsburgh area, so I afternoons, nights, and weekends to connect with animals and owners. I can easily drive to a clients house, and I’m very reliable and flexible when it comes to scheduling! If needed, I can always drive the pets to parks and open spaces to have a fun time as well. (My work will depend on the wants and needs of the clients!)
“Heather is a five-star pet sitter! I was a little nervous when I was looking for my first pet sitter on Rover, but Heather was kind enough to take my booking request the last minute and took great care of my pets. She sent me lots of images and videos and took good care of the animals. Highly recommended.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fox Chapel
For a vacation where everything that could go wrong almost did, Kayli was the one reliable positive thing that we had to deal with through our planning and travels! Kayli was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was super understanding and easy going while dealing with our pipes freezing while she stayed with our pets. I also think our pets behaved better for her than they do for us!! I was a little reluctant to use rover as we have always had friends stay with our pets but I am so happy to have found Kayli!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Fox Chapel
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 426 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fox Chapel. 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 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.

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 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.
