About: Experienced dog walker and pet care taker. I want to take care of pets during the week so my dog Mabel has friends to interact with. I work full time remote as an engineer, so I am at home most of the time. I let Mabel out at least 4 times day and we go for a nice walk after work. I have a big unfenced yard with a 30 ft radius dog leash. Very nice neighborhood to walk in. Lots of space in the apartment and can be separated comfortably if needed.
“Adam was wonderful! He was a great communicator, sent updates and pics of my dog, and made me feel very comfortable being away from my dog. He proved trustworthy and caring with my dog, so I’ll definitely want to use him again!”
About: I’m from LA, where I worked for a dog hiking service where we started each morning with a group hike, came back home for daycare, and boarded dogs overnight. I love all dogs, big + small, and know how important it is for them not just to be well taken care of, but happy! Now it’s just me and my dog (Micho) in Pittsburgh exploring the trails around the city, and we would love to bring your pup along! As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule + take multiple walks a day, short hikes a couple times a week, and longer day trips on the weekends. Because I only take one dog at a time, my time will be completely devoted to your dog for one-on-one play, walks, snuggling, and everything in between.
“Allison took such wonderful care of my girls, and they are definitely a handful :) She kept me updated with how they were doing and sent us pictures daily. They were both super tired when we got home so I know they had a lot of fun!”
About: I have had dogs for my whole life and so I know that it takes to care for them. I work at a dog boarding facility at the moment and so I also have experience in a professional setting. I am currently working part time, giving me plenty of time to spend with your pups! When I’m not at work I’m at the gym or at home! I have a large yard with plenty of room for your pups to play. I have a bernedoodle who is very sweet and loves to play with other dogs. I take Knawi to the dog park a lot and also on many walks, which I’m happy to bring your puppy as well.
“Jeremy was amazing! He and his wife were so kind and thoughtful. Heinz really enjoyed his time there. They sent photos every day to include our dog in a Steelers jersey while we were at the game. Highly recommend”
“Raeann is a compassionate and caring person who showed great affection towards our 12 y/o girl. Would recommend her services and would like to use her services in the future.”
“This was our 1st time using Rover and we recommend it 100%! Tristan was awesome with Sadie! We got tons of pictures and she was very responsive. Would recommend her-Sadie came home happy and healthy!”
“This is the second time Justin has watched my dog. He once again did a great job. We'll continue to work with Justin any time we need someone to care for our dog while we're away.”
About: I have been pet sitting and working in pet stores for 10+ years. I have had every kind of animal, and have been trained by large pet corporations for all kinds of animal behavior and care. I am a volunteer at the local animal shelter and a foster, I’m an animal lover through and through! I have availability most days of the week and most weekends, especially afternoons and evenings for now but looking to make this full time. my home is always open for you and your furry friend! I walk my dog daily, and I have a kitty too who loves other animals. I specialize in senior and special needs care, but have taken care of many dogs big or small!
“Apoorva was simply incredible watching our labradoodle! He can be a little anxious when we are gone and requires 2x daily meds, and Apoorva handled everything incredibly. He received lots of outdoor play with the ball (which is his favorite!) and belly rubs. Thanks to Apoorva he had a great time and so did we while we saw the sites in Pittsburgh!”
“Sam was fantastic. Extremely sweet, open, prepared, and passionate about caring for Winter. Made it easy to leave her for the first time. Anybody’s dog is in good hands with Sam.”
“Sara was perfect. I booked her last minute for the first time and she did an amazing job caring for my dogs, one of which is a senior dog that needs special care. I was very anxious to leave her but Sara was very reassuring and communicated very well. She didn’t miss a beat giving my dog her medications and sent plenty of updates. When I picked my dogs up, I could just tell they were comfortable and had a great stay. Absolutely plan to use Sara again.”
“Johanna was absolutely excellent with my pup Mia. She kept me updated everyday by sending pictures and videos. Her dog Stella is very sweet and playful. She became to be a friend with my dog instantly. I enjoyed watching their play videos thanks to Johanne. We’ll definitely see Johanne again very soon.”
About: Having been a dog and cat owner for most of my life, I'm excited to be able to take the love and care that I've provided and share it with your fur baby. I work from home most days, so I am able to spend a lot of time with your dog or cat, including overnights. Feeding, walks, play time, cuddles, general attention. I just want to be your pets new best friend! I love dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I am good with pets that need medication (oral) and that are still being housebroken. Communication is important and my goal is to keep you as updated about your pet as you would like. It is my priority that you, your pet, and myself are safe and comfortable, so meet and greets before any booking are a must. Looking forward to become friends with your favorite animal. I work from home most days of the week, with meetings over Zoom and in person throughout the week. I'm usually not gone from home longer than a few hours at a time. This can be adjusted accordingly. Weekends are not a problem to be there for your animal as needed. When staying at a clients home it is my priority to respect the home owners space. Meeting prior to any overnights is a must to discuss details, learn how your pet behaves at home, and where they are comfortable being in the home. Communication between myself and the pet owner is very important.
“E'Ronda took great care of our 5 month old puppy! He came back super happy and had a bath, trimmed nails and a lot of confidence. E'Ronda was very flexible with my incorrect/changed drop off and pick up times and was very nice and easy to communicate with. We were very happy with everything!”
“Sarah is a great sitter! My dog is very well cared for and comfortable there. She is very easy to communicate with. I have used her as a sitter before and would definitely use her services again.”
“Michelle and Sami were great when they watched my girl, Kira. They treated her like family and sent pictures/updates during her stay. Would highly recommend!”

This was the first time we left our pup with a non-family member and I could not be more thrilled with the service that Beatriz provides! I was nervous that our very high-energy pup may be too much for a sitter, but Beatriz reassured me that she was sweet, obedient, and did great. We received pictures and videos every day to reassure us that our girl was doing great and we couldn’t imagine a better pup sitter!
Daniel was amazing with my dogs! He sent pictures and videos, updated me everyday about them during their stay. One of my dogs is very extroverted and adventurous, the other one is shy and takes a bit to warm up to people, and Daniel was great dealing with their very different personalities. He also maintained their routines as best as possible. One thing to note is that his dog Koda is a sweet baby, very happy and loves so much to be with other dogs! He is definitely the life of the party lol. My dogs and him became very good friends, it was so good to see all the pictures and videos of all 3 playing running around their backyard together. They had a blast! Thank you to Daniel, Marisa and their Koda, you're an awesome family and I am so happy Kaya and my Koda got to stay with you! We will come back for sure when needed! 😊

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 .
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.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
