“Olivia was great with both of our dogs. She kept us well informed and the dogs were happy when we returned home. Olivia stayed overnight and was super responsible and respectful of our home. We highly recommend Olivia and will certainly reach out in the future!”
“I’ve been trying to think of what to write in this review so that I didn’t sound like some over-the-top crazy woman. We were away for twelve days and entrusted Shayla with our Lily and with our home. I think Lily’s guardian angel led me to Rover and to Shayla as Lily is a very slow to warm-up dog. From the initial meeting until our return, Shayla was in-tune with our concerns for Lily and used her dog-whisperer skills to befriend and care for Lily. Indeed, she ended up being Lily’s second mama. Then, with her people skills, she used photos and notes to care for us. On top of all that, we came back to our home in beautiful condition. If you are fortunate enough to book Shayla for your furbaby’s needs, please know that you will have gotten the best of the best!”
“Tatiana was great. She took excellent care of our dog, kept us well informed, and was always on time. She was very pleasant to work with, provided us with cute pictures, and left our home spotless. We would definitely hire her again.”
“Very punctual, communication and timing were excellent and above all else my pup absolutely Loved Gavin! Highly recommend using Gavin for walks/out of town trips requiring a sitter!”
“Amelia stayed in our home and looked after our geriatric small dog recently. (This was our first experience with Rover). On a previous trip when she’d been boarded, our dog hadn’t eaten and had lost several lbs, so we needed help. Amelia was perfect! My dog was able to stay home with no change to her routine. I received pics, texts and had an stress-less trip thanks to Amelia!”
“I hired Caroline to petsit my dog Kobe for seven days. Kobe is special needs as he is four years old and was diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of three. He takes anti-seizure meds throughout the day which is one of the reasons I work from home, and I am super overprotective of him. When we did our first meet-and-greet, Caroline came armed with a notepad and questions about Kobe, his likes, dislikes, and his habits. She wanted me to show her where everything was and was very mindful of every thing I told her concerning Kobe and his routine. She is a very kind young lady and seemingly loves animals. I have a camera and was able to check in on Caroline and Kobe throughout the 4.5 hours she'd be at my house. She is really responsive and good about letting me know when she arrives at the house, takes pictures throughout her shift, also videotapes her giving him his meds, and even proof of his poop events. All this is stuff she might have learned in her training with Rover, or just from her own experiences. I didn't ask for all that detail, but am not complaining to get the whole scoop on my dog while I am out. To pass the time while she sits my pooch, Caroline reads, writes, does stuff to keep herself occupied, even takes short naps with my dog, and I appreciate she feels comfortable enough in my home to be relaxed because our pets can sense those types of things. When Kobe first met Caroline he could not stop giving her kisses, and jumping up on her lap, he was so happy and excited he was crying he just could not contain his joy. Our pets are the ultimate judges, so I suggest you do a meet-and-greet with her and take it from there. Do I recommend her? Absolutely, as I will be using her again and again.”
“Cecilia took great care of our pups and house! Great communication and daily pictures! I would recommend Cecilia to watch anyone’s pets, she truly cares for them like her own.”
About: With my 3 years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant and Pet Boarding Technician, and 6 years of house/pet sitting I am skilled and ready to provide your pets with everything they need! I grew up on a homestead with many of my own critters to take care of, there is no pet too big or too small! I cannot wait to meet you fur-babies and love them like my own! I have classes spread through the week days, but can always drop in between classes and throughout the day so your pup is getting enough potty breaks and play time. My top goal is to make your and your pets feel comfortable and confident while you are away! The care of your home and safety of your pets is my upmost priority.
“Rachel was fantastic with Wally! It was the longest time I’ve been away, and also out of the country, and she took excellent care of him. Loved all the photos and videos!”
“I needed Savannah for a very last minute emergency and she stepped up and was INCREDIBLE! She was so kind and patient and even helped keep my apartment clean being my puppy was a bit of a mess. I highly recommend!”
“Abby was great during our 9 day vacation. We were worried leaving them with someone else for the first time but she sent videos and pictures, and even gave them a bath! The Pups were sad to see her leave so I know they had a great time too. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Abby!”
“Lyndsay did a fabulous job making Finley comfortable and happy while we were gone. It was a last minute request and she was very communicative. I will request her again!”
“Abby was a fantastic sitter for our Mastiff Theo AND my house was spotless when I came home. Thank you Abby for taking care of Theo over Thanksgiving weekend. Having you there made me feel extremely comfortable knowing he was in excellent care.”
“Wow, I can’t say enough about Kristen!! She has been by far our dogs favorite sitter and our family’s too. In a regular situation she is loving and diligent with the dogs and takes care of their needs. She spoils both our older dog and the little one, gives special attention and medicine as needed. When we were out of town our are experienced a very serious forest fire and evacuations were put in place. Fortunately, our neighborhood did not have to evacuate, however, Kristen took every precaution just in case our area is going to require an evacuation, including staying with our dogs and not leaving the house in case she needed to load them in her car. She packed up medicine, food, treats, collars, and leashes to make certain they were prepared and offered to get any belongings we needed. She also had our emergency contact in case she had to call someone else. She went above and beyond in this situation, and I highly recommend her services! She also kept in contact with us via text and phone calls and lots and lots of cute pictures of the pups. Really really appreciated her this weekend!”
“Fantastic experience with Matt! He provided exceptional care for Piper while I was away. He spoiled her with walks, love, and sent regular updates with adorable photos. Bonus: came back to a cleaner house and cozy jazz playing on the TV! Will definitely book Matt again. Highly recommended!”
About: I have been around dogs since I was born. My parents have always had at least one dog running around the house, and I now have one myself that lives with me! Layla has gotten me through some tough times and with that being said I know how important dogs (and cats) are in our lives. I would love to be a sitter, walker, and caregiver to anyone's furry necessity! I am a full time student! Which means that I usually have school all week! I am free after 5pm every day of the week and on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays all day! I have my 3 year old dog named Layla that is very friendly to all dogs! She is playful and loves to meet new friends! I walk her 3-4 times daily because I don't have a fenced yard. This will also be the case if I am boarding a dog! If your dog is crate trained I have a medium sized crate that they can sleep in overnight! I am open to walking as often as needed and will follow routines to a tee! I also live with my boyfriend as a heads up! He is lovely pet owner and loves my girl like she is his own!
About: I love animals and have experience with pets from my time working at a vet clinic receptionist to watching cats and dogs for friends and family! Experience with senior animals and giving medications. I believe in understanding a pet's needs and responding with compassion. I currently work full time in person with a flexible schedule. I will chat with you before we commit to pet sitting to ensure my schedule works for your needs (if that's dropping in before or after my shift, over lunch for a walk, etc). I am able to hang out with your pets, drop in, or walk your pets during the day and stay overnight if needed! I currently don’t offer to have pets stay in my home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Murraysville
Olivia was amazing. She took care of our 4 pups for 4 days. She took them on walks everyday and sent us messages throughout each day detailing what they had been doing. She also sent us many pictures of each pup during the day so that we could see their sweet faces. With Olivia we were able to rest easy that our dogs were being well cared for while we were away. We highly recommend Olivia and will definitely use her in the future.
Vikki was absolutely amazing! This was the first time we've left our animals with someone other than family. I had a sense of peace when I met Vikki right off the bat. She gave regular updates. I could tell the animals were very happy when we got home. I know we will be using her again. Highly recommend.
Katie did an excellent job taking care of Lola. I appreciated that she took her out on a few excursions to give her some stimulus outside of walks in the neighborhood. She even cleaned up the house on her last day! I would definitely recommend her for house sitting.
We had a great experience! She took wonderful care of Luna and was very communicative throughout our time away. I really appreciated getting pictures and updates of Luna—it was so nice knowing she was happy and well cared for. We also came home to a clean and tidy house, which was such a nice bonus. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!
Abigail was an amazing dog sitter, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided! She was incredibly responsive from start to finish and kept me updated with plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was always on time, came by beforehand to meet my dogs, and took the time to make sure they were comfortable with her. When I got home, the house was just as clean as I left it, and most importantly, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Abigail to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again!
Raechel did a really good job with our boys. She stayed at our house and cared for our two golden retrievers ( one 4 years old and the other 6 months) for 3 nights. From the moment she walked in the house our boys loved her. She was very communicative leading up to watching them and sent good updates.
Amanda is a wonderful pet sitter. One of my dogs had injured his leg about a week prior to her caring for him, and she was incredibly adaptable and attentive in giving him his oral medication. She kept me at ease by sending pictures and promptly answering all of my questions. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be using her again in the future.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Murraysville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Murraysville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Murraysville 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!
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 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
