“Rachel did an amazing job caring for my cat! She carefully followed all the instructions and kept me updated if she noticed anything unusual. I would definitely love to rebook her!”
About: I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and have been caring for cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding that every animal has their own unique personality and needs. Over the years, I've cared for and babysat pets for friends, family, and neighbors, earning their trust through dependable, compassionate care. My experience includes caring for cats and dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, energy levels, and temperaments—from playful puppies and energetic dogs to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, as well as independent cats and affectionate lap cats alike. I understand that some pets warm up quickly while others need time to build trust, and I always let them set the pace. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, cleaning litter boxes, or simply providing companionship and comfort while you're away, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well cared for, while giving you peace of mind knowing they're in reliable hands. I work full time out of the home, but can be available to board animals overnight on weekdays for (1) night with a pick up by 7:30 AM the following day and can board or house-visit over the weekend (Drop off Friday after 4PM thru Sundays-pick up by 5 pm Sunday). I can do house visits any week day after 4 PM. I have a fenced in backyard and a very walkable, safe neighborhood. My home is a pet's paradise with lots of comfy couches and plenty of space to run and play, and windows for clocking in for Neighborhood Watch :) I don't mind animals sleeping with me, if they want to! Otherwise, plenty of places for furry ones to nap and snooze whenever they choose.
“Hannah did a great job caring for my cat and my senior dog. My dog has a lot of special needs and Hannah took really good care of her and was very communicative. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I recently graduated from college and moved to the city, and I’m excited to continue spending time with animals through dog walking and pet sitting. Over the years, I’ve pet sat and walked dogs for neighbors, friends, and family members, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. My family has Dane Mastiffs, so I’m very comfortable handling large breeds, but I also adore small dogs like my aunt’s two mini dachshunds. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important routines, exercise, patience, and affection are for dogs, and I’ll always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands! I work full-time, but my schedule is similar to shift work. I have open mornings and the occasional free weekend! Pet care is something I enjoy, gets me outside, and is a little bit of exercise all at once. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide updates (and lots of pictures!) so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. My goal is for the pets to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. That means sticking to their routine, staying in familiar environments, and being aware of the surrounding stressors. I am great at following clear instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter box care, and any special routines their pets are used to. I also keep homes clean and tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I can provide services at the client's home; I don't have boarding facilities.
“AnaBeth was incredibly responsive and thorough. She took great care of my 2 cats but also went above and beyond when other unexpected issues arose. I would not hesitate to hire AnaBeth again. Thanks so much!”
About: I’ve taken care of neighborhood dogs and cats since I was 12. In May of 2020, I got my first puppy and crate-trained and have taken care of her since. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities! *I will be leaving the Pittsburgh area on August 8th!* I am currently working for the city government, so I have a very reliable 9-5 schedule. I am largely free outside of that and can’t wait to spend time with your pets! I currently do not offer services in my home. In your home, I am happy to take care of your pet in any way they need!
About: I have a deep love for animals especially since I have a 10 year old schnauzer back home in Florida who I miss every day. Being around pets again brings me joy and comfort, and I always strive to give that same feeling back to the animals I care for. I treat every dog like my own; with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. I also genuinely enjoy walking outdoors, so your pup will always get the exercise and fresh air they deserve. Whether it’s energetic playtime or gentle care for seniors, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I love going on walks every day, especially in the spring/ summertime. So taking dogs along just makes those moments even better. Since I work as a competitive gymnastics coach in the evenings, my mornings and afternoons are wide open for drop-ins, walks, and quality time with pets. It’s the perfect balance of movement, fresh air, and furry companionship! Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or dropping in for a visit, I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I take time to bond with each pet through play, cuddles, or just calm companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family, always making sure they’re happy, exercised, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve been around dogs for all of my life and have been helping care for pets since I was about 10 years old. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, from playful, high-energy pups to shy older dogs who need a little extra patience and time to feel comfortable. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive to the little details that matter. I know every pet has their own routine, quirks, likes, dislikes, and comfort level, and I take that seriously. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a slow sniffy walk, extra reassurance, careful feeding instructions, or just someone calm and kind to hang out with them, I’ll follow your directions closely and care for them with patience. I also understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll keep you updated, communicate clearly, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Because I’m currently a Physician Assistant student, my schedule is too variable for me to have my own dog full-time right now, but I truly miss having that connection and companionship with animals. I’d love the opportunity to give your pet the same care, attention, and affection I would give my own! My schedule varies with school/clinical responsibilities, but I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits depending on the day, and I’ll always be honest and clear about my availability before booking so your pet gets reliable, consistent care. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, careful, and detail-oriented. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding instructions, medications if needed, leash/harness preferences, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m also mindful of safety details like doors, gates, leash security, and how your pet responds to people, other animals, or new environments. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for, while giving you peace of mind that they’re in responsible hands.
About: I’ve taken care of just about every common household pet you’d encounter, from dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters to birds, reptiles, and amphibians :) I’m experienced with socializing cats and dogs of all ages and temperaments, with more experience being with dogs but my recent time has been mostly cats. I currently work part time from home and can work from anywhere with internet access, so my schedule is pretty open. I don’t drive, but am experienced using public transportation. My style is generally to be the least bit intrusive as possible. Most pets have their routines and schedules, and I’ve found that sticking to them as much as possible can help to ease what might already be a stressful situation for them.
“Happy to continue booking with Christy year after year. I always have peace of mind that my kitty will be well looked after while we are out of town.”
“Nimisha took such great care of my 3 dogs, she sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on them each time she stopped over. I was able to enjoy the weekend away without worrying because they were clearly in the best hands. Grateful to have found her and will definitely be using her again 😊”
“Caroline was fantastic and took great care of our Lottie dog. She was super communicative and thorough with her check ins, and made sure Lottie had fresh water and plenty of walks, treats, and love. She sent lots of pics and we were reassured knowing Lottie was getting great care while we were away. We will definitely use Caroline and Will again!”
“Thanks to Kira, my new kitten was able to have socialization and not be lonely while I was on holiday. Kira was very sweet with Tinkerbell and was kind enough to send me pics every visit. Kira was consistent in her responsibilities and communication. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to others.”
About: I’ve always grown up around dogs of all kinds. Since graduating from Pitt, I have been volunteering at the humane animal rescue of pittsburgh as a dog walker. This position not only requires classroom training, but also real world experience handling dogs of all sorts with all kinds of backgrounds. Although my busy schedule does not allow me to have a dog if my own, I’d love to care for yours! I have a relatively busy schedule that can change at any time, but dog walking, cat sitting, or drop in visits in my free time help me stay active and present. I am able to work from home Monday and Friday which allows me the flexibility to drop in and say hi to your animal when needed. I also waitress in the morning on some weekends, leaving my afternoons free. If not though, I’m an early riser and love going for morning walks! My schedule, although sometimes chaotic, allows me to be flexible on same day or short notice reservations. I have lots of experience with animals meeting strangers and I feel confident on reading animal body language and comfort levels. My training from working at the humane animal society prepares me for several common and uncommon interactions between humans and other animals. At home I have one kitty who prefers her own space so I understand shy animals and their needs. Growing up I lived with both cats and dogs so handling multiple animal interactions is not an issue if needed.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Millvale is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Millvale
Cam was wonderful with my household of elderly men. Very good with communication and reaching out with any questions especially because my babies have some silly personality and quirks. I really appreciate that they reached out to check in, and kept me up to date on how they were doing while we were away.
Heather is very patient and considered all the instructions we had for her thoughtfully. Our dog needs some time to warm up to strangers and Heather accommodated for that. We went for a couple of walks together and had her over as well before we booked our first check-in. Now our dog is starting to get happily excited when he sees her. She's easy to communicate with and we're very happy with how everything went. Looking forward to booking her services again!
Eronda provides exceptional pet care services. In addition to managing all the necessary physical tasks, she offered the genuine care and emotional support my cats needed during my absence. Because my pets are accustomed to my constant presence at home, being away was highly stressful for both them and myself. Eronda’s attentive approach mitigated that stress entirely. I highly recommend her services and will absolutely utilize them for any future extended travel.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Millvale stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Millvale 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
To find sitters in Millvale with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
