“Tamkia was absolutely amazing with my dogs yet again! She went above and beyond and worked with me during the labor day weekend! My dogs love her so much they jumped in her arms when she came through my door. She will be the only dog sitter I get from now on!”
About: Caring for dogs, big and small, for over 30 Years. Experienced in walking, grooming, playing with and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Have taken extensive dog training, and have watched many dogs and other animals for the past 15 years. I have successfully trained my 4 dogs extensively to the point where I can take them to restaurants and other public spaces without bother. Currently available full time, 7 days a week - early morning to late evening. Flexible scheduling and repeat visits welcome. Enjoy finding new friends to walk. I have 2 friendly dogs, one 5 years old, one 1 year old, who are welcoming play mates or walk buddies. I have multiple crates where your 4 legged friend can find a solitary relief if needed.

“Salem was an amazing choice! It was my first time having someone stay in the house to care for my pets. But he put me completely at ease. Took such good care of the babies. We have pretty specific care instructions, and he followed them to a T. He spent so much time with them. He was very communicative. He left the house immaculate. I would 10/10 use him again. If you're looking for a trustworthy amazing sitter for your pets! Salem is your person!”
“Rebecca is a sweet and caring person who loves animals and puts their care first and foremost! We knew from seeing her around town working over the years that she is friendly and very responsible. I have to say that we were not worried leaving our pets in her hands. While, we were away and needed to ask her to take care of a matter for us, she did so with total grace and patience. If, you want to feel totally secure when leaving your pets while your away, please, consider booking Rebecca. You'll thank yourself, later!!!”

“Plachette did a wonderful job caring for our dogs! She provided regular updates, sweet pictures and videos, was reliable and made me feel very comfortable that our pups were getting good care while we were away. I would recommend her to any dog owner!”
“Lyla went above and beyond for our two dogs (mini poodle and pitbull mix) while we were away for a long weekend. She came to meet them a few days before we left and took them on a walk so they could acclimate to her. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, took them on two walks per day, did tricks with them, and kept them safe and entertained the whole weekend. We'll absolutely be booking with her again!!”
About: I've had multiple dogs and cats my whole life and they have all been my best friends! We like to cuddle, go on walks and learn new skills. I'm no stranger to pets of all different personalities and know how to meet them where they are. I'm experienced in providing insulin to dogs and topical treatment to cats. I don't currently have pets of my own but have spent weeks looking after the cats and dogs of friends and family. I love those times that I'm able to bond with their fur babies and would love to get to know yours as well! I currently work remotely and can be available for boarding throughout the week and weekend. I'm available to hangout with your pets, take them on walks or bathroom breaks, feed times or personal enrichment, whatever they may need. I have a backyard that pets can run around in, it is fenced on one side only so they would need to have a long leash for safety. I don't have other pets so they wouldn't have any problems there! If coming to your home I'm happy to go by the rules that you set and the comfort levels that you have. I always find pets do best in their comfort zones anyway and I'm excited to meet them where they are!
About: Reliable pet care while you’re away! I have no difficulty giving medications with no extra cost to you. Great communication to help you feel at ease while you’re away I work full time Monday-Friday in a healthcare setting. I am available anytime during the weekend and weekdays after work (typically after 5 PM dependent on day) Currently I only am providing services in the pets home, my cats aren’t so welcoming to new friends joining their pack ): thank you for understanding
About: I grew up with all kinds of pets from birds to geckos! I have a lot of pet sitting experience and am super flexible with schedules and any of your pets needs! I have experience with pets that require daily medication as well. I work full time but I have only work 4 days a week and my work schedule is always changing allowing me to have flexibility with days and even times! I remember that when I am caring for someone else’s pet that I am in their pets territory and that I may be unfamiliar to them at first! I am always gentle with them and try to maintain a relaxing environment for each pet I care for. I always give them time to warm up to me as well and offer them lots of love!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Murrysville
Jessica took care of our two Goldens for 8 days - and she did an amazing job! We left very detailed instructions for our pups, and she followed them to the tee. We did in-home sitting and she took fantastic care of our home as well. Jessica provided daily updates and tons of pictures and videos. Overall, she went above and beyond and we will be booking again in a heartbeat (and so would our pups!).

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 Murrysville 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 Murrysville 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 Murrysville 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.
