“Great job again!!! My cat was very happy when I got back from my trip. Joyce did a great job keeping in contact as needed. If you get the opportunity, please use her for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I am trying to go in college for vet tech so it’s hands-on experience I truly value! I focus on calm, safe handling and pay close attention to each pet’s health, behavior, and comfort. Your pet will be treated with patience, respect, and genuine care!! :) Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I make sure to plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions so pets receive consistent attention and care. I am off on Mondays, which gives me extra flexibility for longer visits or additional needs. I can also request days off with a two week advance notice, allowing me to adjust my availability when needed. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My dogs are outside dogs, but they are very much part of my daily routine. I make time every day for walks, playtime, and individual attention to ensure they’re getting the care, exercise, and affection they need.
“Eryn was great to work with! She did a great job with my pitbull. She shows great attention to details and goes above and beyond to keep your pet happy. Highly recommend her!”
“Daouda did an amazing job caring for our 2 cats while we were out of town! One cat was in a cone while we were gone after having some surgery and the other is on several pills and liquid medication, so caring for them wasn’t the easiest, but Daouda had no problems handling all of it. One of our cats can also be super shy but warmed up to him right away, and both looked very happy in all the photos we received. Even more telling was how relaxed and happy the cats were when we got home. Normally they are very clingy after we’ve been gone and have some residual separation anxiety, but they didn’t have any after this trip. Daouda also brought in an extremely large and heavy package that arrived for us while we were gone so we didn’t have to worry about it sitting outside until we got back, and that was super helpful. We are looking forward to booking him again and recommend him to anyone else looking for a pet sitter!”
“Sitong and his wife did an amazing job caring for our cats while we were away! Great communication, super reliable, and our kitties were clearly well loved. Mango stayed with them and Dusty was checked on at home — everything went perfectly. We’ll absolutely be booking with them again!”
“Maria's support was absolutely instrumental in us being able to take care of Henry. She began her drop-in visits when he was 8 weeks old and could only be left alone for very short periods of time. Maria was wonderful in her care and constant communication (she always sent the funniest photos of him). We can't imagine how we'd have juggled our busy careers and puppy care schedule without her help. We've shared our rave reviews with neighbors who also have dog care needs. Maria, thank you for all that you've done to take care Henry, you're definitely one of his favorite humans!”
“Paola has been doing a great job! I have booked her multiple times. She shows great care and follows any instructions perfectly. She takes great pictures! She is also always quick to reply!”
About: Hi! I'm Jessica, and I've always been a dog person. I volunteer with Lifeline Animal Project and Angels Among Us Pet Rescue, where I've spent time with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing tug-of-war, or just curling up on the couch for company, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I'll care for your dog as if they were my own. I'm reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'll make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, affection, and updates while you're away so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. I work from 7a-3p Monday - Friday and can come home for lunch - I'm a 10 min drive away. Your dog will get (a minimum of) a morning walk, afternoon walk and evening walk. Dogs with more energy will get outside playtime. I'll be with them throughout the late afternoon and evening. They will get a walk before bed. Your dog can sleep in my bed and I will be with them the entire time on the weekends. I will keep your dog company, make sure they get exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of love. I’ll send you pictures daily of our time together.
“My pup lived her best life while I was away! Chelsea did drop ins at my house and even though I unknowingly ended up somewhere with ZERO service for 2 days she was true and treated my doggy right on a holiday weekend no less. BOOOOOOOK CHELSEAAAAAA NOWWWWW!!!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m a proud dog parent to two pups of my own: a 5 year old Miniature Pinscher/Chihuahua mix and a 7 month old Xolo/Chihuahua mix. I adopted my older pup at 2 months old and trained him from the beginning. He’s now a calm, loving, and cuddly companion. I also adopted my younger pup at 4 months old, and she has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement while raising a high energy puppy. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to make each pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog needs playtime, exercise, patience, or extra attention, I’ll treat them like they’re my own I work fully remote Monday-Fri, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and flexibility throughout the day. I currently take my own dogs on walks 3–4 times daily and make time for short play sessions, training, and cuddles between work breaks. I also maintain a consistent feeding routine for my dogs and understand how important schedules are for pets. I’m happy to follow whatever routine, feeding schedule, or care instructions you have established for your pup to help them feel comfortable and keep their normal routine while you’re away. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of green spaces, walking paths, sidewalks, and a small dog park where pups can safely get exercise and enjoy some outdoor time. My apartment is a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure pets have a safe space to settle in, with plenty of supervision, attention, and affection throughout the day. I keep my home free of hazards, maintain a consistent routine, and provide a comfortable environment where pets can feel secure and cared for. When caring for pets in their own home, I understand the importance of respecting their space, following their routines, and providing the same level of care and attention they receive from their families.
“Molly was wonderful! She came over the week before so we could show her everything and always spent time with our cat even though all we needed was to do his litter and food. We are so thankful to her!”
About: I’m happy to watch any and all pets! Grew up with both a cat and dog and I’m able to watch your pets during the work day if need be! I’m able to work remote during the work week and have been having a blast watching my godparent’s new puppy! During the weekend I tend to work 7-3pm at a coffee shop but have free evenings outside of that. Whatever safety measures / protocols you have for your pet id be happy to follow as needed. As long as the requirements are clear then I’m good to go!
About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and the bond with a dog is not something that can be replaced. I have had a number of dogs throughout my life, and I have wide range of experience from training a puppy to also caring for an elderly pup. We have a very flexible but pet safe household where our two 8 and 10yo Labradors are very loved, friendly, and comfortable with other pets. Our dogs are not crated, and I am comfortable caring for crated and uncrated pets. Our friends often joke that our dogs live better lives than most people! I am self employed from home, therefore have a very flexible schedule. I already care for our current dogs with meals, throwing the ball, and walks, so additional pets do not significantly affect my normal daily routine. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs that will keep your dog(s) company. I am comfortable with crated or uncrated dogs, and we live in a safe neighborhood for leash walks.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Pittsburg is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pittsburg
Kayla is amazing! She was very communicative, reliable, and provided great updates throughout her drop-in visit. Our dog is very shy around new people, but Kayla was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to make her feel comfortable. I would highly recommend Kayla and hope to book with her again!
We had such a great experience with her! Our puppy is usually very wary of new people, but he immediately warmed up to her. She took him for a walk, played with him, and took such great care of him. We’re happy with how everything went and will definitely be booking with her again!
I had such a great experience with my dog sitter! She did drop-in visits for both of my dogs and handled them so well. From the start, she was incredibly sweet and professional. We did a meet and greet beforehand, which gave her the chance to connect with my dogs and make sure it was a good fit—and it definitely was. While I was away, she kept me at ease with consistent communication, updates, and lots of pictures. It really reassured me that my dogs were happy and well taken care of. She even went above and beyond by helping with a few extra tasks around the house while I wasn’t home, which I truly appreciated. I could tell my dogs were in great hands the entire time. She was attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring. I’m happy that I found her because she will now be my dog sitter moving forward. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!
Jin truly came through for us in such a stressful moment. We reached out last minute due to a family emergency during a holiday week, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She took amazing care of our dog, sent updates, and made us feel so secure while we were gone. Most importantly, our dog loved her! We are beyond thankful and would highly recommend her to anyone.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pittsburg is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $44 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 November 2026, there are 7,708 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pittsburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pittsburg. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
