About: I absolutely love spending time with furry friends! I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and even some shy rescues. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, playing fetch at the park, and giving all the belly rubs they deserve. I’m responsible, punctual, and make sure each pet gets personalized attention and affection while you’re away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible class schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets throughout the week. I usually have mornings and evenings free, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Taking care of animals is a great way for me to relax and recharge between classes—it honestly makes my day better! I make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live just a short walk away from a beautiful dog park where pets can get plenty of safe, supervised outdoor time. I always keep dogs on a leash during walks and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. At home, I have two super friendly resident pets who love meeting new friends and are great at helping other pets feel relaxed and welcome. I keep my space clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with lots of cozy spots for rest and play. Your furry friend will be treated just like family here! 🐶💛
About: Hello! My name is Maya and I am an animal lover! I volunteered at a local animal shelter and was promoted to a volunteer coordinator there due to my dedication to caring for the animals searching for their fur-ever homes. During my time at the shelter I have administered medication, walked dogs twice my size, and have cleaned up far too many bad smelling liquids for one person alone. I am comfortable doing whatever may be necessary to ensure your pet is well taken care of and happy. You can be worry free if your pet is with me! I’m currently in graduate school online, so my schedule is flexible. I have the time to give your pet all the time and attention they need! I strive to make your pet as comfortable and happy as possible! I understand boundaries and that some pets need time to open up and am more than willing to give them that time.
About: One always wanted to have a dog of my own so taking care of other pets wood help me experience what I’ll need to know annd do when it’s the right time to have my own dog. I work early in the morning, after work I have nothing better to do besides take care of my family and my vehicles. I love to go to the park, travel, and go out to eat. I’m usually in the house in a safe and pleasant neighborhood, if I do go outside I’m either working, walking throughout the trail at our park or grabbing something to eat!. I rest assure everybody in my neighborhood doesn’t see me often only my neighbors. I honestly like it that way, it does protect us from what can possibly happen outside but I’m always protected and protective about everything!

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!)
About: hands on experience working in animal-care facilities and my understanding of the importance of safety, patience, and individualized care. I have experience administering medications, monitoring behavior, supervising group play, handling dogs of different sizes, and maintaining clean environments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I’m committed to following their routines and providing reliable, loving care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their parents peace of mind. I am currently part time and devoting my time to do what I love by proving excellent care and love to those Pet parents in need of a little extra help. I provide attentive, loving care while following each pet’s individual routine and their owner’s instructions. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment by providing fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, medication as directed, and a clean, safe space. I closely monitor their behavior, respect their boundaries, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection. My priority is keeping every pet happy, healthy, and safe while giving their owners peace of mind.
“William was absolutely everything I was looking for!! I was in Switzerland for 8 days and was very nervous leaving my pup but I was continuously updated and kept in the loop about visits and how Loki was doing. William was VERY flexible as it was only a few days before my trip that i requested such a lengthy date for William to check in on Loki. I was updated with pictures and was reassured by William on how Loki was eating/drinking and acting every day. Loki absolutely adored Billy from the second they met. I will 1000000% be using Billy in the future for any of my needs with Loki. I couldn’t recommend him enough!!! If you need anyone, Billy is definitely the way to go!”

“Dave took excellent care of my dog. It was clear how genuinely caring and professional Dave is. He provided daily updates with photos. I will definitely be using his services again. Highly Recommend!!!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teenager, providing pet care and sitting services to friends, neighbors and family. I'm the person who will immediately try to help if I find an unattended dog and make every effort to reunite the good boy or girl with their family. I'm currently between careers and looking to earn some extra money doing something I've always loved as I train for the next phase of my life. I've learned from my own dogs that consistency and routine are essential to helping them feel safe and regulated. I'll make every effort to follow your dog's usual routine and rituals to keep them feeling loved until your return.

About: I don’t just watch dogs, I genuinely love spending time with them. I’m the kind of person who gets excited to meet every dog I pass on a walk! My goal is to make your dog feel loved, comfortable, and stress free while you’re away. Whether your pup is energetic and loves adventures or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. You can expect lots of belly rubs, playtime, patience, and plenty of photo updates. I work Monday through Friday from 8–5, so my primary availability for pet care is during weeknights and weekends. I’m very intentional about dedicating that time to the pets in my care and adjusting my routine to accommodate their normal schedule, whether that means walks, feeding times, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Since being without my Golden, I’ve honestly felt a little emptiness in my day, which has made me realize even more how integral caring for dogs is to my life. Because of that, pet care is something I genuinely prioritize, and I want every pet I care for to feel comfortable, loved, and like their routine is being respected. I understand that every dog is different, just like people. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, boundaries, and communication style so I can adjust the way I interact with them based on what makes them feel most comfortable and secure. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely while paying attention to the dog’s individual responses and needs. My goal is never to force a dog to adapt to me, but to understand how I can best fit into their routine and earn their trust so they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owner is away.
About: I love furry friends of all kinds. While I grew up with cats, I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life and love pets of all kinds! I work a schedule different than most. Because I work nights and weekends - I have some extra time during the day for your furry friends. So while you are busy at your 9-5 you can trust that your pets are taken care of and ready for you to be home :) I am detail oriented and will worry about your pet as if they are my own. I follow directions to a T and will be sure to take good care of your fur family!
“Jenna took great care of my cat! She was punctual, communicative, responsible, and I felt safe leaving my cat in her care. I came back home to a happy and healthy cat. Thanks Jenna! ☺️”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life so I definitely know the ins and outs to pet sitting/walking! I’m currently a fur mom to my own puppy of 8 months. His name is bandit and he’s my absolute world! 🥹 he keeps me company while I work from home and we always go on daily walks. I really enjoy that time we have together. I’d love to bring that energy elsewhere also and be able to walk other puppies who need it! 🥰 I work from home and have a pretty open/available schedule almost everyday after 1. Weekends I’m completely free and should be available if needed! 😊 I have my puppy on a schedule with eating, potty time, active time, and bed time. I know all of his needs and can adapt fast to others needs as well! I have a big yard with a long leash if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs & cats since could remember, around 10 years plus. I have pets of my own and they are my world. One dog named Luna and a black cat named bean! I own my own cleaning business and make my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility\! This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your fur babies and work around their routines and needs\. 🐾 I’m happy to accommodate different schedules and locations whenever possible! I live in a safe & quiet neighborhood, in a apartment in Edgewood area. I love all animals and would treat yours like my own.

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.

“I finally was able to leave my dogs in the care of a responsible adult! Klarin is a natural dog person and my dogs loved her, and even minded her! As a bonus, I saw she cleaned up the backyard. What a sweetheart!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats in my home as a child, I also had a few other kinds of animals (my mother had a dream of having a homestead and fulfilled it! Haha) . Anywho I love all animals but dogs and kitties hold a special place in my heart. I understand schedules can get busy and the guilt of not being able to take our pets on consistent outings is deep, and sometimes a vacation is needed. Don't worry though, because I am here for all of your dog walking and pet sitting needs! :)) I am currently working and taking a gap year to save for college! My schedule is flexible and I more so would like to see what works best for you and see if that works for me, play it by request! I understand dogs need to go out for bathroom breaks consistently . I am a very active person so for dogs that have more pent up energy longer walks or more play time is no problem! My dogs always had dietary restrictions so I am very understanding of dietary problems in our four legged friends. (I will never feed them processed "people" food for the sake of their stomachs and wellbeing and your home and wallets!) I think if cats and dogs could rate my pets I would get 5 stars across the board...just saying 🤷🏿♀️

The average cost of Dog Sitting in McKeesport is $39 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $39 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.

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 McKeesport 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 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.
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.

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.
