“Alexis checked on my two cats once a day for a week. She spent a good amount of time with my cats and sent updates every day. My boys were well cared for and I will absolutely use Alexis again.”
“Lindsay was able to come feed our cats and fix our auto-feeder on extremely short notice while we were away. The cats loved her, including our little black cat who is usually afraid of strangers. She was super nice and very communicative. Thank you Lindsay!”
“I could tell right away that Dana was dependable, reliable and can be counted on. As someone who worries a lot about leaving my two cats, that provided me the peace of mind that I needed to enjoy my vacation week. I was so happy to find that she also truly is kind, caring, and loves animals, and that my shy cats warmed up to her immediately! I would absolutely recommend Dana.”
“Disha was absolutely incredible! My wife and I were away for 10 days, and she took amazing care of our cat, Little John, who is truly our pride and joy. She stopped by every day, provided great updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Disha is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Mariah was amazing and gave us updates and pictures of the dogs while we were away! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who cares deeply about your dogs!”
“Theresa had great communication and took fantastic care of my four cats while I was out of town. Everything was in perfect order when I returned. I would definitely book her again!”
“Abriana was excellent! Attentive, caring, and great communication. I would not hesitate to book again or recommend! We also did some 60 min visits and she played with the cats and made sure to give all of them attention!”
“Danielle is awesome. We have four dogs, three of them on the bigger side, and one has to wear a belly band due to marking in the house. She’s awesome about getting it off him before going out to potty and putting a new one on. It’s an odd task, but she handles it with ease! She does weekly visits for us and is great with the pups. Trustworthy and thorough - we highly recommend her!”
About: I have had 3 rescue dogs and 3 rescue cats over the past 30 years. I have dealt with all ages and various medical conditions. In addition, I have continuously watched dogs for my family and friends. For several years I also volunteered for Animal Friends, walking dogs and doing cat socialization. I work a full time job, Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm. I have plenty of availability weekday evenings. The weekends I am available from 7am to 10pm. I treat your home and your furry family members with the utmost respect and care. During my visits, I ensure your pet stays strictly on their familiar routine to minimize any stress or anxiety. I keep a watchful eye on their behavior, ensuring they don't chew on anything hazardous and stay safe while exploring the yard or going on walks. Your home's security is vital to me, so I double-check locks every time I enter or leave. In the rare event of an issue, I am fully prepared to contact your preferred veterinarian and coordinate with Rover's 24/7 support team immediately.
About: I am a student who is looking for a fun interactive job and way to make money. I have a dog at home and have always been surrounded by animals and have previous animal care experience. I am a Graduate of Kent State and with such a flexible schedule I am needing some work while at home. I love all breeds and types of dogs. Big, Small, old, young and all. I also will do cats. I really just enjoy the presence of animals and will go the extra mile for them ( haha literally I will walk them for miles...) I would love to watch your pets and walk them and do whatever necessary. I can even help train. Having had roommates with dogs and cats, I was always in company of animals and offering to watch or take them out. I have always had a dog at home growing up and involved in the care take that comes with a family pet. Potty break are on the backyard leash or multiple walks. A safe clean house can ensure the best stay for your pet :) Thank You!

I presently work from home so I will be able to provide your puppers constant care. I love taking dogs on long walks around Lawrenceville! Fenced in backyard. pups will get plenty of exercise playing with me and going for walks. I understand the trust that owners are placing in me to care for their most loved pets and take that responsibility very seriously. I love and treat the dogs I watch as if they are my own🧡
“Heather was so kind and upon meeting her, I instantly knew I wouldn’t have to worry while I was gone. She was very communicative and I know my boy had the best treatment.”
“Shaina did such a great job of taking care of our eldery diabetic cat and making sure he wasn't alone. I appreciated all the updates from her. She made sure to keep us well-informed with how he was doing.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - McKees Rocks
Letting a stranger into your home is always unnerving, and trusting them with your fur babies can be genuinely scary. When you combine the two, it can feel like a recipe for disaster. However, Cara completely put our minds at ease. She provided daily drop-in visits for our two senior boys, Ezekiel and Garoche, and our young girl, Molly. Cara was meticulous, she kept Ezekiel’s medication on a strict schedule and ensured the litter boxes were scooped daily. The highlight for us, though, were the daily photos; seeing those happy faces was the perfect reassurance while we were away. When we returned from our two-week cruise, we were greeted by happy cats rather than 'grumpy' ones who felt neglected! We knew from our initial meet-and-greet that Cara was the right choice for our little treasures. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!
Lauren is wonderful and was so good taking care of my mom’s cats. We had to rehome them as my mom can no longer care for them due to illness. While she was recovering she stayed with me and we were both so comforted knowing Louie and Leo were being taken care of. Lauren was a life saver and I would highly recommend her!
Kinsey is great with pets as well as being responsive and responsible. couldn't be happier! She followed our cats’ feeding routine perfectly, and sent fun photo updates every day which gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed pet and a spotless house. We will definitely book with her again
We booked Alexis for drop in visits for our 13 year old cat Chloe for a week. This is the first time we’ve booked outside of family or friends so we were a little nervous. After meeting Alexis I immediately felt comfortable. Her daily updates with pictures were great! And looking at the pictures, I could tell Chloe was happy and well taken care of. We would definitely book with Alexis again,
Taylor has walked Rocco for about two years while I’ve had work assignments in downtown Pittsburgh. He loves her. She always goes above and beyond and has helped us find alternate walkers if she’s away. Unfortunately we’re moving north, but would continue using her without reservation.
We were very happy having Mamie (Mary) care for our two cats! She is a great communicator, particularly when it comes to letting you know how it's going with your pets. We have a cat who is recovering from an injury and we could tell from meeting Mamie - and later from her updates - that he was in good, attentive hands! She also had to play hide-and-seek a bit to keep up with our more timid cat, but she caught onto his patterns. We're glad we were able to book her and would highly recommend!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in McKees Rocks is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $30 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 October 2026, there are 2,638 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across McKees Rocks. 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 .
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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
