“Mary took great care of our cat Lucy who can be a little shy. Mary followed all of our instructions and even convinced Lucy to cuddle a bit. I also liked all of the pictures. Thanks again, Mary!”
“Michaels the best! He’s helped us multiple times with overnight stays & quick drop ins. Our very selective dog & our shy cat both love him. He went above & beyond when we were away during a big snow storm & couldn’t get home to our pets. He cleared a pathway for our dog to go outside, cleared snow away from vents attached to our home & still managed to keep our pets active & exercised in the frigid temps. Everyone needs a Michael for their pets!”
“Sarah was a lifesaver for our last minute request to watch our cats! She was amazing with Marlin and Lola… 2 very different 🐈🐈⬛personalties. We got lots of PICTs and messages… 💯 % recommend Sarah!”
“Tommy did drop-in visits my dog and my 2 cats while my mom and I were away to visit family, AND he even accepted my last minute added visits as well. Let me say, I’m extremely grateful for that and for how we took care of our animals. I looked forward to each “Drop-In Card” that Tommy filled out and the pictures he took in each one. Potty breaks, food breaks, water breaks, and even took care of the litter for us. I’m grateful for his kindness. I highly would recommend Tommy ❤️ My pets were in great hands!”
“I cannot recommend Gary enough to anyone new to Rover or the local area. Gary was an excellent communicator, eager to help out, and took amazing care of my two cats. He sent pictures and updates every time he visited and I had full confidence that my cats were getting the care and love they needed while I was away. If I could give 6 stars I would!”
“Maria was amazing from the start for us! She agreed to take care of our babies last minute the day before we left for our trip! She came and loved them like they were her own and kept us updated on everything! She was kind enough to grab our packages for us too! We had no worries while being away knowing she was caring for our baby doggies 🩶”

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and companionship they need. I stay organized and dependable, so I can consistently follow each pet’s schedule and provide reliable care throughout the week, including weekends when needed. When caring for pets, I focus on providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s regular routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner.

“Brandon as excellent! He took care of our kitties while we were traveling for our wedding and they could not have been in safer hands. Brandon was communicative, sent fun pictures of the cats, and went out of his way to ensure they were comfortable and happy.”
About: I'm from PR, and I've been a dog rescuer since 2011. I have tons of experience caring for animals and giving them the love and treatment that they deserve. I love what I do. I retire and moved to Pittsburgh on February, 2023. It makes me a perfect match for your doggy. I will treat them as if they were mine. NO cages. I have a fenced runner connected to the pets' room that allows them to safely go in and out whenever they want. You can bring their bed or any special toys. I foster rescued dogs from PR that came to Pittsburgh looking for a second chance of life, and the money earn through Rover is used to cover their health and traveling expenses. I work from home, and my office is in the room where they will spend their stay, so they will be with me most of the day, and they will be able to play with my own dogs under supervision. If they are potty trained and well behaved, they will have permission to access all the house. To be able to satisfy you pup's needs, I will ask you to write down your special instructions and promise I will follow them as written. You will receive a lot of daily pictures of your furry friends.
“Jessica is a great sitter! She went above and beyond for our cats as she was able to accommodate last minute request we had, also she is carefully folowing instructions when feeding our diabetic cat, which is very much appreciated! We have used her services multiple times and when we need a sitter she is the first one who's availability we check. You can tell that Jessica loves animals, she is responsible, dependable, punctual and kind. We are happy to be able to find Jessica when we did. If you are in need of drop in visits for your pets, we recommend to consider Jessica for assistance with that.”
About: I have had dogs in my household since I was a baby. I moved to pittsburgh in 2021, and before that was living with my parents who had four dogs! Right now, I have 3 cats. I love to dogsit and spend time with other people's babies! I have experience in dog sitting, and have spent some time working in dog daycare/boarding. I am currently not working a typical job so I am available 7 days a week most weeks and can spend all of my time with your pet if needed! I am dedicated to keeping your pets safe and happy by keeping a close eye on them and making sure that they are loved and cared for.
“Becky, fulfilled all the requests, took care of the cats statused us when we needed to be told something to and proactively communicated any delays. Definitely recommend.”
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.
About: My name is Amanda, I’m thirty nine and child less so that means more time for dogs! I recently lost my senior bulldog Junior so Im new to this site but figured it would be a good idea to try and fill my time when i’m not at work since all my free time was spent with him. I work at night so morning/afternoon walks and/drop ins are ideal. Can be flexible on my off days too and am open to caring for pets while you take a short trip if needed Love to take a walks and keep your dog company while you work or even take a trip. Though I’m the case or a vacation; I’d prefer the pet stay at their own house because that’s where they feel most comfortable but am flexible since I’m dog less
“Savannah was sweet, respectful, and attentive to my old cat Simba. She came twice as day as requested and kept me updated with lots of photos and videos while I was away. I felt very comfortable knowing I had her taking care of my sweet boy. Will definitely book with Savannah for any future catsitting I will need!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Plum
Mary noticed an alert from a smoke detector while we were away and made sure to alert me and report that it was taken care of at her next visit. She went out of the way to make sure it was a safe environment for my cat while i was out of the country. The piece of mind that gives is priceless.
This is the second time Laurel has watched our cats for us, and as long as she’s available, she’s who we will always go to! Laurel clearly cares for our animals when we’re away, and does the extra little things too. She peeped that we had a thirsty plant and gave it some water during her check in too!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Plum on Rover is $17.99 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
