“Alyssa does an amazing job with our babies! This is my second time booking with her and the pets absolutely love her, and so do we. She’s very attentive and full of compassion. She truly does this for the love of animals and treats your babies like her own. Loved all the updates and photos, thank you so much Alyssa! <3”
“Jessica did exactly as directed. Our Macy has some thyroid issues and requires daily medication. Jessica administered those with care and patience. Would definitely recommend her and use her services again in the future.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, from young puppies to adult dogs. I administer medication to my own friendly dog twice a day, so I’m comfortable incorporating medication schedules into a dog’s daily routine. I’ve also cared for an 8-week-old puppy for an extended three weeks while the parents were international, which gave me experience with the extra attention, patience, supervision, and consistency that young puppies need. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love while making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. I can also walk dogs together when their temperaments, leash manners, and walking needs are a good match. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Since I’m home most of the time, I can give your pets plenty of attention and help keep them on their normal routines. My son has a few evening activities that typically last about an hour, but otherwise, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs. I love being able to provide pets with dependable, loving care and make sure they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them in their own home, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for drop-in visits to check on pets, provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medications when needed, and offer playtime, companionship, and cuddles. In my home, I have a friendly, animal-loving dog who enjoys having company. I keep plenty of toys and treats on hand to keep pets happy and entertained, and I can provide a crate or a separate room if a pet needs their own quiet space. I also have a yard with a dog-run tether for supervised outdoor time. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own!
“Caitlyn was an excellent sitter for my two kitties. She responded quickly & was able to accommodate a last minute booking. Definitely would book again. Thanks Caitlyn! (Also the pictures were adorable!! ☺️)”
“Shaina has been very patient with my pups! They have been a bit stubborn with the change in routine. Shaina is also quick and great with communication. Will definitely use again for future needs.”
“Chang is extremely responsible and takes excellent care of pets. Very kind and goes the extra mile to make sure the pet is happy. She is very knowledgeable about animals and understands what they need.”
“Penny looks forward to Marias visits, it would be an impossible travel without Marias support. Maria is kind, patient, flexible and super communicative. It was a relief to have Maria watch Penny during our long trip.”
“Heather was so kind and upon meeting her, I instantly knew I wouldn’t have to worry while I was gone. She was very communicative and I know my boy had the best treatment.”
“Ryan was an excellent find! Pleasant, dependable, and responsive, he did a fantastic job of taking care of my three cats while we were away for almost two weeks. Not only did he take care of my boys, he also brought in all the packages that we received while we were gone. He will be my first call when I need a pet care from here on out. Thanks Ryan!!”
“Disha was perfect with Kaos - he’s a shy boy but he warmed up to her immediately and she did an excellent job watching him while I was away for the weekend!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, and now two sweet cats of my own! I’m a lifelong animal lover who knows that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or just good company, I’ll make sure your furry (or fluffy!) friend feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to get to know your pet and treat them like one of my own. I work M-F, but my schedule can be pretty flexible, especially on days that I work from home. I have a lot of autonomy over my schedule & will be happy to work with you to meet your pet's needs. I am comfortable with any specific instructions or directions that you have for your pet in your home. Whether you are looking for a quick check in, replenishing food/water, administering meds, a walk, etc - I'm happy to discuss how we can make sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you're away!
About: I've really missed caring for dogs since my beloved pup of 13 years passed away. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. Every dog is unique, but I find that I make friends with them quickly! I'm good at reading their body language and accommodating their needs. I look forward to playing, feeding, walking, and providing company for your precious babies 💖 I'm available every weekday after 3:30pm and available most weekends. Depending on what your sitting/walking needs are, we could work it out! I take attentive care of my pets, and I'll be sure to follow any directions you may have for me! I'm good at moderating food and providing enrichment.
About: I have been an animal lover all my life and have been around all types of animals. But dogs are my sweet spot. I have owned my own dog for the past 6 years, but have had numerous family dogs while growing up. I learned how to train my own dog by getting training lessons for her. I love caring my friend’s dogs and am often the one they ask to watch their pets when they leave town. I will give your pet all the scratches and belly rubs they desire as well take them on walks in my neighborhood as often as needed. As of now, I’m only able to do house sitting on the weekends, but I’m glad to do drop in visits and walking throughout the week. I currently work in a hybrid job setting where I am home 2 days a week and in the office 3 days a week. But I am able to take breaks to take pups out for walks every 4-6 hours. I when walking other people’s dogs I am make sure they are leashes securely and comfortably. I only walk in neighborhoods that are walkable or if needed can transport in my car to a a more walkable neighborhood. I want all the dogs I care for to feel safe when out on their walks.
“I was nervous to use Rover for the first time but Jordyn was great. Texted me throughout the process and sent me a picture of my cats at the end to let me know they were ok. Would definitely use again!”
About: Before Rover I didn’t have much experience with dogs if I’m being honest. The only experience I had prior with a dog was a baby pitbull and that was for about a year. That being said, despite the lack of experience I had, I have gained more experience from caring for dogs on Rover. My love for animals in general is why I am open to continue learning. I will still provide the same love, care and affection for a dog as I would a cat. My daily and weekly routine is very open for pet care. I am currently on maternity leave so I have lots of availability throughout my days. I treat them like their family and not strangers or “just for the money type of thing”. If the client has special requests as far as how they would want their pet taken care of, I would follow those requests and update the clients along the way.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Ross Township is $20

Alyssa is the best of the best. She is so incredibly thoughtful and trustworthy - we had a situation with my home alarm and Alyssa worked to fix it for us even though she totally didn’t have to. My shy cat Gracie adores Alyssa, which is so rare! I will always book and rebook Alyssa for my pet sitting needs!
Jessica's daily drop-ins were just what our orange boy needed while we were away. Her updates were great, we could tell from the photos that he appreciated not just the food (I mean, he LOVES food), but the company and the attention as well. If we take another long trip like this, we'll definitely be looking to bring her back to take care of him again.
Letting a stranger into your home is always unnerving, and trusting them with your fur babies can be genuinely scary. When you combine the two, it can feel like a recipe for disaster. However, Cara completely put our minds at ease. She provided daily drop-in visits for our two senior boys, Ezekiel and Garoche, and our young girl, Molly. Cara was meticulous, she kept Ezekiel’s medication on a strict schedule and ensured the litter boxes were scooped daily. The highlight for us, though, were the daily photos; seeing those happy faces was the perfect reassurance while we were away. When we returned from our two-week cruise, we were greeted by happy cats rather than 'grumpy' ones who felt neglected! We knew from our initial meet-and-greet that Cara was the right choice for our little treasures. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!
We were so lucky to find her when we needed someone in a pinch! Our regular dog sitter was moving that weekend, and our friend who usually dog and house sits for us was busy. We even had another Rover cancel on us last minute, so we were getting a little nervous! She was available to do a meet and greet and then came for the full hour both days for drop-in visits. She was very responsive, followed all of our feeding instructions for both dogs, fed our fish, and took AMAZING pictures while she was there. It was so nice getting the updates and knowing everyone was taken care of. She was dependable, easy to communicate with, and clearly cared about our pets. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter! 🐶❤️
I booked Hanna to stay with my 3 cats, including a young kitten and a medically complex senior cat, while I took a trip across the country. She was detailed, communicative, and punctual. My trip would not have been even a fraction as enjoyable without her, as she really provided me peace of mind that my babies were in not just competent, but caring hands. 10/10 recommend!
We booked Alexis for drop in visits for our 13 year old cat Chloe for a week. This is the first time we’ve booked outside of family or friends so we were a little nervous. After meeting Alexis I immediately felt comfortable. Her daily updates with pictures were great! And looking at the pictures, I could tell Chloe was happy and well taken care of. We would definitely book with Alexis again,
Taylor has walked Rocco for about two years while I’ve had work assignments in downtown Pittsburgh. He loves her. She always goes above and beyond and has helped us find alternate walkers if she’s away. Unfortunately we’re moving north, but would continue using her without reservation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ross Township is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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 2,606 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ross Township. 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 Ross Township. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
