“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“She was absolutely wonderful. She took time and patience with my dog. She fed him and walked him took pictures. Kept me alert on everything I couldn’t have asked for a better, Dog Sitter.”
“Morgan is a very capable and professional dog and house sitter. My dogs love her. She is thoughtful, patient, and kind. She took up lots of time w the pets and followed instructions. Will book w Morgan again.”
About: A pup in my care is treated like my own. I typically will take them out and about such as the trail near my home, lots of loving and stern understanding through our time together. I work from home so I have all the time in the world to walk the pup every two hours, feedings through the day and scratches behind the ear often. I live alone with a fenced in backyard with cameras in and outside my home. The pup is allowed on the couch and bed. Your pup will be comfortable in a smokeless home.
“Jill was amazing! She took such great care of our home and our doodle, Gumbo. He absolutely loved her! She kept us updated with photos and messages, and we could tell he was happy and well cared for. We came home to a clean house and a very content pup. Highly recommend Jill — we’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: I've had cats and dogs in my house ever since I was born. I have two shelter dogs that I lived with in Michigan for 3 years, volunteered at Detroit Animal Control, and am currently a volunteer at PAWS Atlanta. I love all types of pets and will take the best care of your fur babies!! I work 5 days a week in office near Duluth and can usually be available for lunch drop-ins for that area Mon-Fri. Otherwise, after 5:30pm most of those days is when I’m available. I live in Buckhead area so weekends / drop-in visits on the way home from work are best. Weekends are typically available, the farther in advance the better for those. I do not own any pets in my current home but when I did, I was walking my dog daily as well and having others help when I couldn't. I'm unable to have pets for now, so I want to be able to help others!
“Lizette was so caring and kind with our elderly Chihuahua and our precious cat. We were so very pleased with the attention she gave to them, including administering a powdered medication to our dog. Excellent communication and was on time with all of the visits (door code gave updates)”
“Julia was awesome. We couldn’t be happier with how well she took care of our babies and treated our house. Julia was very communicative and the daily photos were perfect for us to feel great about leaving our girls in her care. No second thoughts about using Julia again on our next trip.”
“Kevasha was wonderful with our dogs. We have 3 (2 large GSDs and 1 Chihuahua). She walked them, let them out and entertained them. She was wonderful with our house as well and we enjoyed having her watch the dogs. She shared pictures and updates throughout the day”
“Erin was wonderful, she watched our dog for a week and took such great care of her and our home. She was quick to communicate updates and check in photos during her stay. Highly recommend and will definitely use her again.”
“Kyle was absolutely wonderful to work with from beginning to end!!! He went above and beyond to make sure we were all comfortable before my trip. He kept me up to date throughout the whole trip and my dog was in very safe and capable hands. Can’t wait to hire him again!”
“Sarai took wonderful care of our dog and our home while we were away for two weeks this summer. She took him on walks, kept our house in great shape, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. The best part was coming home to a happy, relaxed dog who was completely himself 😊. We would absolutely hire Sarai again and highly recommend her!”

This was our second time hiring Andrea to housesit for our dog June, and we look forward to working with her again in the future! She is communicative, responsible, trustworthy, and sends the BEST pics of our girl! Thanks for making this part of our wedding weekend so easy, Andrea!
Toby was fantastic with Pippy and Simba! He was incredibly flexible with our plans, including a last-minute change. He clearly has a great way with dogs—both pups were very comfortable with him, and Pippy, who has lots of energy, came home happy, relaxed, and calm. He walked them regularly, kept us updated with great photos, and took wonderful care of them throughout the stay. Toby is friendly, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. He has that calm, positive energy that dogs seem to immediately feel comfortable with. We’ll definitely book with him again!
Sivani was a wonderful dog, cat and house sitter for us! She is honest, reliable, conscientious, timely and kind. She’s the type of person to excel at whatever She chooses to do because she wants to do it well. Our dog is pretty high maintenance and needy as he’s a cute little fluff ball and is used to being treated like the baby of the family! She took such good care of him. It was so nice to know he was in good hands while we were enjoying time away with family. We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!
Sophie was absolutely PHENOMENAL!! I HIGHLY recommend booking her! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated with photos and even sending questions to check in when she observed abnormal behavior (like Jack nibbling on his leg fur or Mochi and Mirage moving a door stop). She showed so much love and care, and we felt completely at ease while we were out of town because Sophie was so attentive to our fur babies. She comforted Jack during fireworks and kept him calm during the storms and also made sure Mochi and Mirage kept their feeding schedule and had clean litter boxes. Sophie is amazing!! 😻🐕
Jill was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home for three weeks and took excellent care of our dogs. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and a house that was just as we left it. Jill was reliable, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would happily have her stay with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
I just got back from my trip and once I catch up I want to leave a more detailed review BUT for now I have to say Joyce is absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond. My two wild dogs, my plants, my house, everything is happy! I don’t even know how to say it all. But she is an angel!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Pittsburg is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $105 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. 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 November 2026, there are 4,786 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pittsburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Pittsburg 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 Pittsburg 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 Pittsburg 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pittsburg. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
