About: Hi, I’m Kimberly! 👋🏼 My love for animals is what inspired me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting and dog walking. While I’m newer to pet sitting professionally, I have years of personal experience caring for pets and understand just how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. I grew up with two cats and was lucky enough to have my dog, Macie, by my side for 14 wonderful years. Having pets has always brought so much joy and happiness to my life, and I love getting the opportunity to give that same love and attention to other people’s pets. 🐾❤️ Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit for feeding and potty breaks, some playtime, or simply a little extra love and companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection I would want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! 🐶🐱 I am currently available for drop in visits and walks for your pets when necessary! I work remotely so I can typically accommodate your schedule I made sure Macie was fed at feeding times and has plentiful water. Macie went outside first thing in the morning and right before bed. Of course she loves her walks and the occasional treat!

About: Hi! I’m Dani — I have several years of experience caring for pets and love working with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’ve helped with dog walking, pet sitting, feeding routines, and giving lots of attention and playtime. I’m especially reliable, communicative, and patient, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets.

I’m presently in school and only taking one class over the summer. I ensure that I keep my availability updated for potential clients. In the summer of 2026, I have no availability on Thursdays. I’m happy to do a meet and greet prior to developing our walking relationship. I’m comfortable providing medication and happy to follow any directions for pet care that are necessary.

“I had a sitter cancel, and then couldn’t reach the her replacement, and George agreed to check in on my kitty cat on short notice. George proved to be very reliable in spite of coming from further away. I intend to hire him again if he’s still available to cat-sit.”

“Crystal has been our pet sitter for more than a year. She cares for our slightly difficult cat and our freshwater and saltwater fish. She gives our cat lots of kind attention. She observes our cat's health and can medicate her as needed. Crystal gives clear updates with each visit. She arrives for each visit as scheduled and responds quickly to each message. Our pets, our home, and even our plants are in perfect order when we return home. Crystal is an excellent pet sitter!”

“Meagan was great! We were flexible about times, but she always came when she said she was going to and gave detailed summaries after each visit. We could see her playing with Louie on the outdoor camera, and he looked like he really enjoyed her company. She took great care of our buddy while we were out of town and we couldn’t be happier!”

About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.

About: Hi! My name is Plachette, and I've lived with various pets since I was a child. My father was a dog breeder (pitbulls <3), so being surrounded by puppies and dogs is something I've become accustomed to! I have experience with dog walking and sitting multiple breeds at once and administering medication as instructed. While dog sitting at your home, I'll also tend to any messes that are made, bring your newspapers/packages/mail, and give you thorough daily updates of what's going on around the home. Upon request I'm able to provide proof of having 5 star ratings for 150+ services I've already completed for other pet parents. For dog walks, I'm capable of handling small to gigantic dogs. I can work with dogs that pull. I prefer to use a waist leash (I have my own) while walking dogs since it allows me to be hands free and have more control with your pet. Of course, if you prefer your pet's own leash, that's fine too. :) I am self-employed so I am able to make my own schedule for work days and hours. If extended stays or additional pets need longer periods of care, I can adjust to these changes. When pet owners provide me with particular details on how to care for their pets (feeding schedules, administering medication, crating, etc.), I will be a able to provide proper care for any pet.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for both cats and dogs—though my own cats would probably like me to emphasize cats first 🐾 I’ve spent time volunteering with the Humane Society of Somerset County, where I walked and cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and with Kitty Queen Cat Rescue here in Pittsburgh. These experiences gave me hands-on confidence with animals who need patience, attentiveness, and a calm presence. At home, I’ve had cats my entire adult life—they truly are my babies—and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work from home, which means more flexibility, more availability, and more attention for your pets—whether that’s a midday walk, a check-in, or just extra time spent keeping them company. I offer: 🐶 Dog walking (reliable, attentive, and tailored to your dog’s pace and personality) 🐾 Drop-in visits for cats and dogs (feeding, litter/yard care, playtime, and meds if needed) 🐱 In-home cat sitting (a calm, cozy environment—perfect for cats who prefer a quieter stay) I’m also comfortable administering oral and topical medications. Availability-wise, I offer flexible evening and weekend scheduling to fit your needs. I’m especially great with: Cats (shy, opinionated, or “only likes their person” types included) Dogs who benefit from a patient, calm walker Pet parents who want thoughtful updates and peace of mind You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication while you’re away—I know how much that matters. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family (and probably talk to them like tiny roommates), I’d love to help 💛 I have a full time, work from home job as a Customer Experience manager M-F, so my availability is evenings and weekends as I'm able. I can also board kitties anytime that can hang out with me while I work! I am a nature lover who loves walks in the park and in the woods. When caring for pets in my home, I have a separate bedroom where I would be able to keep them separate from my two cats, if need be.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Lower Burrell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lower Burrell is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 per visit. 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.

As of November 2026, there are 2,542 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lower Burrell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lower Burrell. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

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.
