About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, and now two sweet cats of my own! I’m a lifelong animal lover who knows that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or just good company, I’ll make sure your furry (or fluffy!) friend feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to get to know your pet and treat them like one of my own. I work M-F, but my schedule can be pretty flexible, especially on days that I work from home. I have a lot of autonomy over my schedule & will be happy to work with you to meet your pet's needs. I am comfortable with any specific instructions or directions that you have for your pet in your home. Whether you are looking for a quick check in, replenishing food/water, administering meds, a walk, etc - I'm happy to discuss how we can make sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you're away!
About: I have taken care of dogs since the age of 12, when I got my own dog. Since Moose entered my family I have fallen in love with the joy dogs bring to a home. I'm an avid walk taker and am looking for a companion to join me! I am a newly postgrad professional who is trying to fill my newfound free time with walks and pets! Growing up with two dogs of my own it has been quite the adjustment to no longer have company on my daily walks. I’m looking forward to spending time with your furry friends! I will ensure your dog is safe, whether that is in your fenced in yard or on leash. I will also make sure to discuss your furry friends specific needs before care.
About: I've really missed caring for dogs since my beloved pup of 13 years passed away. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages.

I look forward to playing, feeding, walking, and providing company for your precious babies 💖 I'm available every weekday after 3:30pm and available most weekends. Depending on what your sitting/walking needs are, we could work it out! I take attentive care of my pets, and I'll be sure to follow any directions you may have for me!

I live in an apartment building with many green areas surrounding it and a fenced in dog area. It is a great space for dogs and there are other dogs that live in the building.

About: I’ve been a Veterinary Technician for the past 3 years, however I have been taking care of animals all my life. I have years of experience from my own dogs and cats as well as other families’. From puppies/kittens to the senior babies I can help out wherever you need it :) I am canine/feline CPR trained I work full time at a veterinary clinic, so I have time in the afternoons/evenings for walks or drop ins! Boarding availability on weekends :) I have two friendly cats who free roam my house. I feel very strongly that pets are family and should be treated as so. With that being said I take many precautions to keep them safe in your home as well as my home.
About: I have had pets all of my life. I also have extensive pet rescue experience with pets of all kinds and ages. I frequently foster animals and have a few “foster fails” that are now a permanent part of my family. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat that I spend time with all day. I am available most times of the day and I am excited to help your fur family members!

About: I have 5+ (and counting) years of dog experience working at a well known doggy daycare and boarding facility in Pittsburgh! Outside of work, I am the go to pet sitter for all of my friends and family members. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, temperaments, and varying medical needs. My work schedule is flexible, so between my schedule and my husband's, your pup should never be on their own for more than five or six hours at a time. My husband and I live in a duplex unit in central Lawrenceville with a fenced in back patio area. We are right down the hill from Arsenal Park, which is a great spot for walks! In your home, you can trust me to stick to business and ensure that your pup is receiving quality care in the comfort of their own home. Every dog is different, and I am more than willing to accommodate each and every one!
About: I have always loved animals of all kinds, and caring for them is truly my passion. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, nurturing, and dependable. I grew up with dogs, so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I treat every pet with love, attention, and care. I began watching dogs for family and friends in high school. Recently, I have been watching animals more frequently over the weekends which inspired me to create a Rover account! I am the happiest when I am around furry animals so I am very much looking forward to this journey! As a teacher, my weekdays are typically busy until 4:00 PM, but I’m available afterward for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My weekends are wide open, giving me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide fresh food and water, lots of playtime, endless attention, and plenty of affection. For walks, I focus on safety and keeping dogs active, happy, and comfortable while following their pace and needs.
“Caralyn was absolutely amazing!! She took excellent care of our two cats while we were away. She’s a great communicator, and sent us daily updates on how the girls were doing. We really appreciated her gentle, compassionate approach with them, and know they were well taken care of! We would definitely book Caralyn again :)”
About: I have had 3 dogs of my own! An Australian Cattle Dog Mix, a Basenji mix, and a working line large breed German Shepherd, which I helped train in obedience to be an SD. My dogs always had scheduled potty breaks and playtime. My job is to make sure your pet has the best time while keeping boundaries/respecting their space, ensuring their safety, and following your expectations of care. I am comfortable with any amount of shedding and the size of your pet. I can especially ease my interaction with pets that are scared and anxious, as through training my own dog, I am better at picking up the dog’s body language and only engage in physical contact if the pet’s body language consents. If you have an aggressive pet, please notify me beforehand. I do not guarantee I will agree to care for them, but I am interested in scheduling a first meeting if possible. Note: I do not drink/smoke, so your loved one will never be affected by second-hand smoke or inappropriate behavior. I am very available on the weekends and by the afternoon on weekdays. If you need morning care, please reach out and I will see if I can accommodate! My pets are routinely groomed and freshened. Everytime they come inside after heavy play, I clean their body from head to toe with pet friendly wipes. I use a brush that helps with shedding and smoothing out hair. Their teeth gets brushed every 2 weeks. I check their ears for dirt routinely and the inside of their paws for any injuries or cracking from dryness.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Glenshaw
Deneane was absolutely amazing!! She loved on our dogs so well and made them feel like they had a new friend to hangout with. She sent us the cutest pics of our dogs and took care of them as if they were her own. We will most certainly be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!
We were so lucky to find her when we needed someone in a pinch! Our regular dog sitter was moving that weekend, and our friend who usually dog and house sits for us was busy. We even had another Rover cancel on us last minute, so we were getting a little nervous! She was available to do a meet and greet and then came for the full hour both days for drop-in visits. She was very responsive, followed all of our feeding instructions for both dogs, fed our fish, and took AMAZING pictures while she was there. It was so nice getting the updates and knowing everyone was taken care of. She was dependable, easy to communicate with, and clearly cared about our pets. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter! 🐶❤️
Heather was amazing! Saved the day when a sitter canceled on us at the last moment and took amazing care of our furry family members. The photos she sent were the best, we could tell Fleury and Tela were getting lots of love from Heather every visit. Heather will be our first choice going forward.
Marissa was amazing with my Pup Splash. He can be a nervous boy and she was very patient with him and he warmed up to her in no time. He is also deaf and Marissa took the time to learn his signs so that she could communicate with him. I felt very confident with Marissa caring for Splash and will definitely be hiring her again!!

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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Glenshaw 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!
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 .
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 , 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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
