About: As someone who is always trying to live vicariously through dog owners, I have been a reliable and eager puppy and cat sitter since I was young - for friends, coworkers, neighbors, and extended family. I have experience and am comfortable feeding and exercising large and small dogs, puppies and seniors. I have always had cats, and have plenty of experience with administering oral medicines and asthma treatment. I am comfortable with cleaning messes, longterm stays, overnights, and honestly whatever else is needed during your time away. I would love to send pictures and updates of your pets as much as you would like them - your pets become main characters in my life within minutes of meeting them! I am your introverted, nurturing childless millennial that treats every animal with endless attention and love. As a speech-language pathologist, I also think that understanding animal communication and respecting boundaries are key. If your pet is showing me they need space, I will listen to them and make sure they are well fed, their needs are met and a soft presence is near. If they are showing me that they need more love and attention, I will stay and give them more love and attention! I can’t wait to meet your furry family. Right now, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I’m a teacher on summer break and transitioning into a teletherapy position, so I have plenty of availability to care for your pets throughout the day. I believe pets are happiest when their routines stay as consistent as possible, so I make it a priority to learn each pet’s normal schedule, preferences, personality, and needs before their owner leaves. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes and outdoor areas as needed, administer medications when required, and make sure pets receive the exercise, enrichment, affection, and companionship they have when you’re home. I pay close attention to body language, behavior changes, appetite, energy levels, and overall well-being. As a speech-language pathologist, communication is a big part of my professional life, and I bring that same attentiveness to the animals in my care. I believe good pet care means respecting boundaries, recognizing needs, and responding appropriately to what an animal is communicating. I also love sending photos and updates, because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, loving environment and to care for your pets the same way I would hope someone would care for my own.
About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
“Alexander helped me out when I found myself in a pinch at the last minute. He walked my dog twice a day for multiple days. He was punctual and communicative via the app. I will definitely reach out to him in the future.”
About: Hello there, I am a certified Veterinary technician, I have been in wildlife and small animal care for the past 14 years while dog sitting on the side. I am new to the Pittsburgh area and looking to find new clients! My previous experience includes zookeeping and wildlife rehabilitation in the Boston area for 7 years and then working for a professional dog sitting/hiking company in Medford MA for another 5 years. I moved to Pittsburgh to get my CVT (Certified Veterinary Technician license) in 2024, and now work at a lovely little small animal clinic. I am well versed in animals with complex medication/therapy needs, such as insulin administration and exacting medication timing requirements. I am also very experienced with exotics, particularly birds. I work full time Monday-Friday so I am primarily seeking weekend and holiday pet-sitting arrangements. I am also happy to work in drop in cat care around this type of schedule as well. I cannot currently offer in my own home pet care due to landlord request, but I have been dog/cat/house sitting in clients homes for 14 years and am experienced with maintaining specific pet routines and training schedules. I have a leave no trace policy when it comes to other peoples homes. I am also very happy to water plants and manage aquarium care as needed. I also do not drink or party, I just need a sofa and a good book.
“I give this person five stars all the way! She was great and was able to handle my girl while I’m laid up with a knee injury. Thank you! She came on time and was awesome!”
“Thanks so much for walking Turtle! Even in cold weather, Tiffany made sure Turtle got his exercise and bathroom break! Very grateful and will reach out again!”
“I’ve never had someone check on my dog in my home before. I am so glad I found Ashley and that she agreed to check in and walk my dog Kenya. I needed help last minute, and she agreed to walk my dog so quickly. She sent pictures and great updates about their walk and how Kenya did. I had peace of mind at work knowing that Kenya was getting her exercise and some affection. I will definitely continue to book with Ashley!!”
“Maria was fabulous. She was consistent and kind and Kev fell in love with her. She was always quick to respond to messages and gave daily feedback on his walks. We will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Lindsey was wonderful! I appreciate her taking the time to walk with Ella. Ella was comfortable and happy. This is great practice for her to learn to walk with other people.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 12. From pet sitting for families with cats and/or dogs, walking dogs for many summers, attending to animals when I babysat, and taking care of my own dog, Kurt, I have done it all! I take pride in taking care of animals, and love to spend time with them. Whether that is playing with them, walking them, or just caring for their basic needs. I currently also work a part time job, which gives me free time to take care of your pets most every weekend, and during the day Mondays between 12-5 and after 6, Thursdays after 4, and Fridays between 12-6 I will follow whatever schedule/routine you typically do for your pet in your home! I can feed them, fill their water, take them out, play with them, or even just keep them company for a bit!!
“Jagger had a nice first walk/stroll with Lara. She communicated well and followed the tips we discussed at the meet and greet. He looks forward to their next walk. Thanks!”
“Lyla was great. Communication was easy from the start, and she was reliable about showing up every day we had scheduled. No chasing her down for updates, no last minute cancellations. If you’re looking for a dog walker you can actually count on, she’s a good pick.”
“Denyal sent me updates and was very patient with my dogs. This was our first time using a dog-walking service and one of my dogs was a bit nervous to meet someone new, but Denyal got him to warm up to her and have fun on his walk! Highly recommend!”
About: I provide personalized care for every pet experienced with puppy training routines and gentle senior care, including medications and extra attention. As well as my overall love for animals.

About: I have had a dog since I was 5 years old! I have taken care of my own dogs and others. I recently have taken care of cats, thanks to my friends who have them! I can walk, feed, take them outside and, if they get dirty, I can bath them! I have an extremely flexible schedule during the week and weekends to accommodate your busy schedule. Please allow me to work with you on a time that works best for us both! Rest assured that your furry baby is in capable hands and will be treated like family. I will ensure that your dog's well-being is my top priority. I'll create a safe and comfortable environment for your dog to thrive.
“Borb has been amazing. Helping walk Talley daily, I know she’s taken care of when I’m at work. He even kept an eye out for little bumps she has and let me know! 10/10”
About: Growing up in a dog-household and now engaged to a veterinary nurse, my life has always revolved around animals! From pet sitting to taking care of my own fur-family (3 dogs, 1 cat, & 1 chinchilla), I love being able to care for animals. Creating meaningful playtime with your pet is especially important to me. While you’re out of the house, I want to give your pet a vacation experience as well! I love taking photos and sending updates of your pet for you to enjoy until you come back home :-) I work in the film industry which provides me the ability to create my own schedule. When I am available on my Rover calendar, I'm available to check in on your pet. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I want to make sure that they feel safe and comfortable with me entering their space. I always leave their area better than I found it, and make sure to respect your house rules! Catch me up to speed on how your home and pet live day to day and I can take it from there.

Emma took great care of Theo and took him for a beautiful walk by the river! He is tired and definitely well exercised after their visit! She also gave him some yummy treats 😌 I would recommend her care to anyone with a fur baby that they love. I will be booking her again to take care of my boy!
Lyla was great. Communication was easy from the start, and she was reliable about showing up every day we had scheduled. No chasing her down for updates, no last minute cancellations. If you’re looking for a dog walker you can actually count on, she’s a good pick.
Ava was absolutely fantastic! She responded very quickly, was great with our dog, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She kept us updated throughout the walk with pictures and messages, which we really appreciated. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dog and made sure she was well taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely book with Ava again. Highly recommend!
Odelia is a very nice person. Communication was quick and easy. She was on time and treated our dog gently and with kindness. She asked thoughtful questions about our dog and his routine. This was our first time meeting so we took a walk together to introduce our dog to Odelia.
I’m incredibly pleased with Matthew’s help with our dogs as a regular customer (three times per week). He’s always on time and he’s very attentive as he follows our instructions exactly as we’ve asked. He does great with our very anxious and sometimes reactive dog. I cannot recommend him enough.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Mount Oliver. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Mount Oliver.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mount Oliver. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
