“She took great care of our cat while we were away for the holidays! She was very communicative and I would highly recommend her! She also took care of our plants too which was nice!”
“Jiawen!! You were such a dream to work with. She payed such close attention to our kitties who will miss her dearly. I loved all her notes and will definitely rebook in the future”
“Skylar is an absolute gem! From the moment we met him, it was clear he genuinely loves animals and truly cares. Rookie took to him instantly, which says a lot since he can be particular about people. Skylar is reliable, communicative, and quick to respond with questions or concerns. He treats him like his own dog. I never worry when Rookie is in Skylar's care. I can't recommend Skylar highly enough. If you want someone trustworthy, warm, and truly dedicated, he's your guy!”
“Regan saved the day and helped out with watching my dogs last minute (literally). She was so kind and I felt very at ease knowing my dogs were in good hands. She even noticed my one dog was having itchy skin and applied his ointment spray. 10/10 would recommend to anyone, and I will for sure be reaching out to Regan for future sitter needs.”
“Diana was wonderful to interact with, and took great care of our sweet senior pittie. She is an excellent communicator and always sent a photo of our girl that brought us great comfort while we were away. Would absolutely recommend!”
About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
“Accepted a last minute request due to a cancellation. Did great taking care of Mr.Rocket and let me know his arrival time and when he left. Couldn’t of asked for better care for Mr.Rocket”
“Sarah was wonderful! She was extremely reliable and caring. I reached out to Sarah rather last minute when I had a change in my work schedule. For 2 months, she gave my dog his dinner, took him outside for a walk, and played with him and his toys. She would provide a detailed summary of the visit and always sent me the cutest pictures. She was on time and left everything in its place in my home. I trust Sarah and her care of my dog and give my highest recommendation!!”
About: I have over 25 years of pet/house sitting experience. I started out in Los Angeles doing pet and house sitting as a full time job. I have local, national and international references. Feel free to ask any questions you might have. I work part time, from home, as a Virtual Assistant. I can work from anywhere and I make my own schedule, so your fur babies will have my full attention. I do not care for pets in my own home. I do not do boarding in my own home. I only care for pets in clients homes.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, both breeder and rescue! I understand the patience, love, and discipline all dogs need, and am ready to give them my all when in my care! My schedule is flexible if there’s two weeks notice. I work on a daily/weekly schedule in the restaurant and film industry, so if I have aforementioned advanced notice I can plan to be home for as long as needed for a pup! While I have no yard of my own, I am near Mellon Park and a couple blocks away from family that will allow me to use their fenced-in backyard as needed! All of my friends and family are dog lovers, so if anyone visits my apartment, your dog will be double cuddled and spoiled and loved (Note: I will be the primary caregiver, I will not cede care of your pet to anyone else while working. I will always be present)! I have plenty of healthy treats as well, and if no specific bed is provided for a lodging stay, I’m willing to buy one myself. Dogs are allowed on couches/chairs with some blankets I already have, and I will put their bed next to me in my room during the night. I love taking walks around the neighborhood and enjoying food, and obviously would have some eager canine company to join me!
“This was our first time using a pet sitter other than our family and we could not be more impressed by Rylee! She treated our cats like her own, visited and played with them daily. She is a excellent communicator and truthfully, my cats were probably sad when I got home LOL! Would definitely use Rylee again!”
“Maria was great with our dogs! She and her husband came for a meet and greet and they all got along immediately. We definitely will use Maria again. She was also very responsive and kept me updated with photos of Superfly and Paco.”
About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. I love staying active and going on walks so I can adjust to your pets needs and wants. I have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats, old and young. I am a graduate student so on off days I am able to spend time just hanging out with the animals as needed. I am currently attending graduate school. I am completely free most weekends and Mondays with a few exceptions. I am available to stay nights for dog sitting and am free in the late afternoons all week. I can follow any instructions given for each pet. I know each pet may have different needs and can adjust as needed. If pets have routines I will work my best to ensure to keep them on track and can crate in needed.
“Therese was awesome looking after our cat Puck while we were away, playing with him and sending us cute pictures. Even helped water our garden when it was hot outside. Appreciate the help and highly recommend!”
“This was my first time ever using Rover for my cats and somehow I hit the jackpot and got so lucky finding Clareese. She almost immediately put me at ease with our meet and greet with how trusting and sweet her personality is. She ensured me of her history with caring for animals and how she treats every home as if it was hers. She took the best care for my babies that I could ask of someone. She communicated with me throughout each visit and very thoughtfully went above! This helped me tremendously during my time away being as this is always such a stress of mine when I have other people help with care. Clareese is an absolute sweetheart and did a phenomenal job and I absolutely would recommend her to others and hopefully be able to book her sometime soon! She even left me a welcome home note, so thoughtful and kind! Best of the best <3”
About: I’ve had dogs nearly my whole life and now a cat! I volunteer at Humane Animal Rescue and have specific training for dog walking. I am trained to walk both strong dogs and shy dogs I do work full time and am a part time student so I’m looking for a lot of random flexible gigs while I’m off of work I’m comfortable entering homes to leash any dogs or provide care for drop ins. I’m skilled at getting my cat to take nasty meds as well
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Shadyside is $20

Rylee was absolutely fabulous caring for my two cats when I was out of town. She swooped in last minute and went above and beyond in caring for them and checking on my home. She wrote great daily updates and took lots of photos of play time with them so I could know how things were going. She reached out if she noticed anything off about my home or the cats behaviors. It was such a relief knowing someone was spending time hanging out with, feeding, playing with the cats and ensuring their litter was clean and fresh. I could tell they loved her as they have still been excited for their daily play time with me now that I’m back. Highly recommend!
Tiffany was fantastic from beginning to end. Jane is pretty shy when it comes to new people, but Tiffany took her time each visit to lure Jane out to make sure she had some fun and treats. Tiffany was nothing but professional and friendly the entire time, she was so easy to work with and I look forward to booking with her again.
Valerie took care of my gang last week and they are now so used to having her care for them and so confident that she will come and meet all of their needs that they barely even looked regretful as we left. They were happy when we got back and then when it was time for a walk went to the door to wait for Valerie. They had to make do with us instead. I feel confident when I leave that all will be taken care of in my absence.
Jiawen is very responsive, she always replies timely whenever we leave her messages. She is also amazingly creative by finding a way to resolve the ant issue so Gawman could have normal healthy diets when we were away from home. I feel worriless knowing that Gawman has been in good hands and been taken good care of. I will definitely book Jiawen's service when we travel again and I will be more than happy to recommend her to friends who are in need.
Booking with Alyx gives us absolute peace of mind our kitties are going to be well taken care of! Not only does she play with them during her visits but gives us a detailed update on how the cats are doing. Her pictures are always a great addition as we get to see the cats and how much fun they have with her.
Abigail was wonderful! We ended up having some last minute work being done on our yard, but she was flexible and went with the flow do what the dogs needed and could be done with our gate open. The dogs adored her and she took good pictures! She arrived on time or a few minutes early to each appointment.
We were away for just over three weeks. Kate came to take care of my 2 cats. She provided photos and full details of cat care daily. One cat has to take a pill and she reassured me that all was well at home. She also watered my indoor plants and took the used kitty litter to the curb on trash night. (So there was not an unliftable bag of litter to haul out upon return.). All interactions in person and text were great. My cats, including the shy one who gets the pill, really seemed to like her and interacted well with her.
My dog is always very excited to see Akira! He’s taken the time to get to know my dog, who is not immediately in love with everyone, and I’ve been able to hire him for weekly check-ins. Communication is super easy. Akira has a calm and kind presence that is a great counterbalance for my dog with big feelings. At the same time, he can bring out my dog’s playful side which I believe helps reduce my dog’s stress of having someone other than his family come inside the house.
Polina did an amazing job taking care of my two cats! She is the first person I've hired through Rover and I could not be more happy with the attention and love she gave to my cats while I was away. I never had to worry that my cats were well and responsibility cared for while Polina was watching them. I would definitely work with her again for my pet care highly recommend her to others!
Divya is an excellent sitter, and on such short notice too. The write-ups she gave looking after my cat while I was out of town were quite detailed and the pictures she took were adorable. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing that someone so attentive was checking in on him and giving him bit of company each day.
Pulpo recieved the most purrrrrfect care from Brooke and her family. He was obviously looking forward to seeing them and had a lot of fun each time they came. We got the sweetest photos and updates each visit and came home to a very content creature. 100% recommend!
Rebekah did a terrific job. She took great care of my very shy cat. Rebekah got him to come out and play which made me so happy. I was gone longer than usual so getting those happy photos of him playing, belly up, and sitting with her made me very happy. I highly recommend.
