About: I've had more than half a dozen cats and dogs each throughout my life. I've helped feed them, give them water, walk them, and try to give them the happiest lives possible. These pets have been my best friends, even more so than most people that I've met. I absolutely love animals and always make them my priority! I'm a student at the University of Pittsburgh looking for a part time job when I am home on break, and weekend work when I am at school. I love pets and tend to have a lot of free time at home and on weekends! My pets are technically my parents', but I often walk them because I want to get them outside and it's fun for me. I also feed them and make sure they have water in their dishes. I usually take my dogs as far as they want to go, whether it's for just a block, or for a few miles. I love to snuggle up with my dogs more than anything!
“Highly recommend Tiffany to take care of your fur babies!! She provided updates with photos and spent time playing with my cats during check-ins. My cats seemed very comfortable around her as well :) Thank you!!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and a love for all animals. Although I do not know how to train dogs professionally, I'll be happy to support any training during my visits. I also have a special place in my heart for cats. Their varying personalities and needs call for someone who can love and care for them no matter the circumstances. Besides working with cat care at the animal shelter, I've also had lots of contact with cats through friends, family, and rooommates. If my living situation allowed it, I would most definitely have my own. I currently work at a school during the day throughout the work week - I will be available in the afternoon/evenings as well as weekends. Although I cannot have pets in my own home, I will respect whatever boundaries and rules present at your home! I want both you and your pet to feel as comfortable as possible.
“Stellar cat sitter!!! Laura was super communicative before our trip, and we were so appreciative of her sweet photos of our kitties while we were away. Before our trip, she was kind enough to come pick up the keys and do a meet and greet with our cats - they immediately came out to meet her, which almost never happens with our kitties. So, we knew our cats and home would be in good hands. She even picked up messes from the cats puking and knocking over a flower pot of dirt (which was so above and beyond of her!). We returned to a perfectly tidy home and happy kitties. We've used many cat sitters before and this was one of our best experiences!!”
“Ashley is fantastic. She showed our cats lots of love and was also extremely communicative/responsive. Literally could not ask for a better sitter.”
About: Hi! My name is Colette, but my friends call me Mouse and I love pets! I've been taking care of friends and families pets for about two years now. I'm in college and looking to make some extra cash. I work around my class schedule, that is different day today. I'm able to watch or check in on pets throughout the day and night, and all weekends. I'm in school for theater so sometimes I do go through tech weeks that let me out very late at night, but when that happens, I'm still willing to check in on any pets! I believe in making sure your pets are fully safe and loved while you are away! I have no problem asking about what exactly is the regular routine of your pet to make sure they are the safest and most comfortable they can be without you.

Pittsburgh cat parents share their Rover experiences
Lena was a great sitter for Z! She gave him regular drop ins and communicated directly through the app so I knew when she arrived and when she left. She included a bunch of photos and ended each message confirming that she locked the door and handed off my keys. Will definitely look for her again in the future!
Danielle was fantastic with my cat ZuZu! I received detailed updates and photos during every visit, which gave me such peace of mind. She followed all feeding instructions perfectly, kept the litter boxes clean and spent extra time playing with her. My cat who is usually shy loved her. I would definitely recommend Danielle and we will certainly be repeat customers. Thank you for everything!
Samantha is always excellent! She whispers out our scaredy cat and makes sure he gets lots of attention. She also takes great care of the house and brings in any stray packages and mail that we get. We love how detailed the updates are and how many pictures we get :)
I would highly recommend Soephie to any person with nervous cats. My very introverted cat only took a day and a half to grow fond of her and even play and seek affection. She took such great care of my little ones and sent very detailed updates at every visit. As an anxious cat owner, I felt super comfortable leaving them in her care for 4 days and she even vacuumed my cat room to take some pressure off an upcoming move to a new house! 10/5 wasn't a star rating option.
Annie was great! Was able to book with short notice for drop in visits over the holidays. Very communicative and even our shy kitty warmed up to her. Annie was gave updates daily with pictures and how they were doing, even giving our little one her asthma medicine.
