“Patrick did an outstanding job caring for our dog and home. He was attentive, responsible, and kept us well-informed with great communication throughout. Our dog was clearly well cared for, and we returned to a spotless house. We would not hesitate to book him again and highly recommend him to others.”
“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!”
“Teagan was great I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her just after meeting for 10 minutes. She kept me updated with pictures all night and made my pups feel less anxious while I was away at work. I would definitely recommend”
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
“Rachel was a wonderful in-home dog sitter. In addition to being a perfect house guest, she was so kind and caring to my senior pup. She was communicative and left everything in perfect order. Ziggy says he would highly recommend her and would give her 6 stars if he could!”
About: I've cared for dogs since I was young and have handled dogs both large and small. I've cared for cats since 2019, I am newer to them technically, but I love how different they can be. I run my own business, so making my own hours allows me a lot of wiggle room on doing check-ins or rearranging my day to allow for walks. My home is a temple to good vibes and my happy lil buddies (Sprout and Tansy) get along with everyone they've met so far.
“Elayna was amazing while watching my dog, Moe. She was sure to send me lots of photos and updates and so easy to communicate with. Will be booking again in the future!”
“Sam was legit amazing. One if my dogs developed an issue while she was there (entirely unrelated to her stay) and she handled it flawlessly. He was throwing up, not eating, etc and not only did she alert me right away, but she monitored him closely throughout the day while keeping me regularly updated with detailed information. She helpfully coordinated with my emergency contact to get Rudy taken to the animal hospital and then remained very flexible as I adjusted my travel to come home early. Her communication was excellent, she was very respectful of my home (couldn't even tell someone had been there) and my pups loved her. I would 10000% hire her again.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs most of my lifetime. I'm responsible, loving and believe pets can bring joy to your everyday busy life.They become part of your family. I am a retired teacher and mom of twin teenage boys. I have plenty of time during the day to care for my furry friends. My current home does not have enough space for me to care for pets in my space, but I have np problem coming to yours.
“Plachette gave all the right attention to our two cats,two dogs and 5 fish tanks- she was responsive and engaging throughout our week long trip. Her maturity and experince put us as ease, and her empathy and compassion with our fur-family was obvious from the moment she met them. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Beatriz was very attentive and caring with our dog Daisy. She warmed up to her in no time! Beatriz also went above and beyond in caring for our house and waiting for packages. I would gladly rebook her if she is available next time we are on a trip!”
About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. I love staying active and going on walks so I can adjust to your pets needs and wants. I have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats, old and young. I am a graduate student so on off days I am able to spend time just hanging out with the animals as needed. I am currently attending graduate school. I am completely free most weekends and Mondays with a few exceptions. I am available to stay nights for dog sitting and am free in the late afternoons all week. I can follow any instructions given for each pet. I know each pet may have different needs and can adjust as needed. If pets have routines I will work my best to ensure to keep them on track and can crate in needed.
About: I’ve been around every kind of dog since I can remember from taking care of Boston Terriers to St. Bernard’s! I love to take our family dog on hikes and even used to run with him! I’m a human nurse but I also have experience giving medications including pills and injections to pets. I work part time during the week and weekends. I can be around for afternoon visits and scheduled walks. I love to be outside in nature with animals! I have 2 cats that are comfortable around other peoples pets including other dogs. I am very near, tidy, organized, and respectful of others spaces.
“Angel watched our two energetic, large dogs and was wonderful! The dogs were happy and well-cared for when we returned, as was our home. Angel was easy to work with and a great communicator. We will definitely book with Angel again!”
About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.
“Stephanie was a wonderful sitter for our boys. We have a dog and cat, both total love sponges, and Stephanie really did a great job of making sure we knew that our boys were being fed and cared for, but also being given the love and attention we rely on from sitters when we’re away. It’s never easy leaving our boys behind when we travel, but it’s a lot easier with a quality sitter like Stephanie!”
“Claire was wonderful and I highly recommend her! My dog needs some extra attention and Claire went above and beyond, would definitely have her house and dog sit again!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Braddock
We are so grateful for Jessica keeping good care of boys and our home. We know we can count on her when we need her she’s super great. The boys loved her, and missed her as well when we got back from our vacation. She was thoughtful and caring taking the boys to the park for a walk. We truly recommend her and we can be more than grateful.
Savannah and Silas took amazing care of my dog, Charlie, a 13-year old Goldendoodle, for 10 days while I was on a family trip overseas. This was the first time Charlie has been left overnight with anyone but family, so I was nervous. Savannah and Silas sent multiple updates a day, videos, and lots of fun pics, so I was always informed about how Charlie was doing. Charlie is a senior dog who takes medication and has dietary restrictions, and Savannah and Silas were excellent with his meds and making sure Charlie maintained his special diet. They were terrific asking questions about Charlie's needs and responding to them, and inquired about whether my flight home was on time in case they needed to take care of Charlie. I think Charlie had more fun with them than when I'm home lol as he got to spend time on the porch watching birds and passersby. As a bonus, the house looked great when I returned home from my trip. I highly recommend Savannah and Silas for trustworthy, caring, dependable, and highly communicative pet- and home-sitting.

The average cost of House Sitting in North Braddock is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $72 and $72 per night. 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.

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 North Braddock 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 North Braddock 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.
Tip: 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 North Braddock 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.
