About: I’ve never lived without a dog, so I have life experience playing, feeding, walking, and bathing pups. I helped raise and train my parents’ Golden Retriever puppy during COVID. I’m the go-to sitter for friends’ dogs and have experience with giving oral medication safely. I work full time, but remotely on Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays and can easily take a break to take care of your baby. Weekends are fully open, unless out of town. I treat each clients home with professionalism and ensure that I take care not only the pets, but leave no trace of me behind. Your house is your safe space and I will never spoil that for you.

Experienced following detailed instructions, maintaining schedules, and recognizing behavioral cues in our furry friends. I love walking animals and helping them maintain their health when owners are gone. My biggest priority is to make the animals feel safe and loved while owners are away! Im currently working a full time job at a school near the Pittsburgh area, so I afternoons, nights, and weekends to connect with animals and owners. I can easily drive to a clients house, and I’m very reliable and flexible when it comes to scheduling! If needed, I can always drive the pets to parks and open spaces to have a fun time as well. (My work will depend on the wants and needs of the clients!)

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was a teenager in high school. My friends, family, and neighbors would rely on and trust me to check-in, walk, feed, and care for their pets while they were out of town and would return home knowing their pets were well cared for while they were away! I am a recent Physician Assistant graduate looking for part-time work while studying for my boards! Rover allows me to create the perfect work schedule for myself, while also allowing sufficient time during my day to focus on my studies. I love caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar and stress-free environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine and needs, and I’m happy to provide everything from feeding and walks to playtime and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: As a veterinary technician, caring for animals is both my career and my passion. I’ve provided pet sitting for friends and family for many years, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their individual needs. My veterinary background means I’m comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering medications (if needed), and caring for senior pets or those with special medical needs. I also have extensive experience with exotic pets, including birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, reptiles, and other small animals, so you can feel confident your unique family members are in knowledgeable hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you’re away. One of the things that sets me apart is my ability to care for both traditional pets and exotic species. Whether you have a dog, cat, bird, rabbit, guinea pig, reptile, or another small companion animal, you can trust they’ll receive experienced, compassionate care. With life long experience of 10+ years. Pet care easily fits into my routine, and I make it a priority to give every pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m committed to maintaining their normal routine. I’ll also provide regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a veterinary technician, your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. Before every stay, I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs. I’m experienced administering medications, caring for senior and special-needs pets, and recognizing signs of illness or stress. I also have extensive experience caring for exotic pets, including birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, reptiles, and other small animals. As both a veterinary professional and an exotic pet owner, I understand that these pets require specialized knowledge and individualized care. My home is a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment. My two friendly dogs have been raised around guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, farm animals, and cats from a young age. They are calm, respectful, and do not bother other animals, making my home a comfortable environment for pets who are a good fit for boarding. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like family. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of love and enrichment, and send regular photo and video updates so you always know how they’re doing.

Holly took care of my dad's cats for literal months, and this week she took care of mine! They are well and happy, and Holly even took out our trash for us and brought in our mail. She's definitely my first choice for a sitter, and I'm very glad I was able to hire her again.

Stephanie and Philip were absolutely amazing. We needed a sitter for our cat last minute because we needed to attend an out of state funeral. The pictures and funny check-in updates we received gave us much needed laughter during a tough few days away. Knowing that our cat was well looked after gave us such peace of mind. We would absolutely book them again!

For a vacation where everything that could go wrong almost did, Kayli was the one reliable positive thing that we had to deal with through our planning and travels! Kayli was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was super understanding and easy going while dealing with our pipes freezing while she stayed with our pets. I also think our pets behaved better for her than they do for us!! I was a little reluctant to use rover as we have always had friends stay with our pets but I am so happy to have found Kayli!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Penn Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Penn Hills is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $30 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,270 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Penn Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Penn Hills. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
