“Alexander was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous at first. I have a Great Dane and she is my animal child so, like any pet parent, you want the best for them. My dog was very hesitant at first because she was on guard and protecting her home. I left treats at the door just in case. Alexander was so patient with her and feed her treats to gain her trust. As the days went on, the "check-in" photos made my heart smile. I could see London letting her guard down her guard and that was all because of how sweet he was. I will certaintly use him again!”
“Regan is a wonderful cat sitter! She looked after our 2 1 year old cats for the weekend and was communicative throughout it sending pictures and updates.”
“When we moved into a new house a little further from work we weren't able to get home during the day to give the dogs a break. Finding Dmitra was the best thing that could have happened! She comes every day to let the dogs out and/or take them for a walk. It gives us peace of mind knowing that they are being checked in on and it gives our dogs the opportunity to get some energy out. Dmitra is reliable, friendly and she takes great care of our dogs. Highly recommend.”
“Brooke was a big hit with our dogs Moose and Nina. She dropped in on time, gave them tons of pets and treats and delivered meds with ease. Loved having her and hope to schedule again soon.”
“After I moved, I was very nervous about the idea of leaving my shy, distrustful bunny sisters with a new sitter for the first time - I even bailed on travel plans so I could stay home and take care of my girls. When I absolutely had to travel, the way Devin interacted with both me and the girls eased my fears considerably. They were very curious about him the first time they met, and it’s clear from the picture updates he sent that they only became more fond of him as time went on...They may actually have been disappointed when I came home. Mad respect to Devin for bringing out the hidden sweet side in a pair of sassy, stubborn bunnies!”
“Any took great care of our three little kitties. She sent photos every day, and I could tell that the cats really loved her. We recommend Amy, and we will call on her again!”
“I definitely recommend Morgan to any pet parent in need of reliable care with great communication. Morgan was more than happy to stop back in to double check something with our kitties, and we couldn’t be more thankful!”
“Ashley & Nick did just a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat while I was out of town! From the outset, I was impressed by their professional approach and attention to detail. I received regular updates and lots of pics, so I knew the pets were getting plenty of love, outdoor time, and enrichment. I would recommend without hesitation!”
“Jennifer is the best thing that’s ever happened to our kitty, Helen Rose! She is so fun and so caring. Helen absolutely adores her. Helen is very social and loves to play and Jennifer wears her out but playing all of her favorite games with her. When my husband is traveling for work and I’m working full time outside of our home, it’s so comforting to know that Jennifer is caring for Helen. We also love Jennifer’s Rover cards after each visit. So descriptive and cute. Jennifer is just the best.”
“Our kitty put his PAWS on her for scritches. And she followed his medical requirements with his food perfectly, and was just in general a very polite and friendly person to interact with and entrust our little baby guy to. What more could you want?”
“Sarah did an amazing job with our anxious pup who is not used to new faces! Loved seeing pics of her while we were away. We really appreciated her flexibility to meet and check in on her.”
About: Hi! Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. My love of animals is probably one of my most defining characteristics.

I know what it’s like to want your pet to be in the best hands, so that’s what I’m here to offer!
“Hilary was great - very flexible, dependable and kind. We are a family with multiple, older felines, all of whom have particular needs. Hilary was trustworthy, meeting those needs for a multi-day stretch. She also went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable with her being in our home. Would highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth was absolutely stellar! What an incredible pet sitter. She took the time to really get to know our goofy cat and cared for him like he was her own. We are so grateful for the excellent care she provided and would book Elizabeth again in a heartbeat.”
“This was the 3rd set of bookings I’ve made with Makenzie, and she’s been great every time! She went above and beyond and took good care of my 2 cats. Will book again.”

Squirrel Hill North pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alexander had been a wonderful help! He took care of my two boys (max and Charlie) so well. My boys absolutely loved Alex! He took care of them for several weeks (twice a day). He was always so prompt, great at communication and extremely great with our boys! Thank you aoooo much for all your help!!
Alyx is the absolute best! I always feel so comfortable leaving our cats in her care, and she really goes above and beyond with her visits and updates. It means such a lot to have that peace of mind when we're out of town to know that they are in such good hands 😊
Tracie did a great job with my two dogs and two cats over the course of the week and I would definitely use her to per sit again! She was very responsive, kept in touch regularly, handled one cat who is an escape artist and another one who hides from strangers, and even watered my plants. This is the first time I've used this service and I was very happy with it.
Seda accommodated a drop in on short notice. She did great with my rambunctious, giant Great Dane puppy! She’s clearly an animal whisperer who knew exactly how to handle my little blind cat and my bossy old lady cat. She was communicative and handled everything independently. I totally trusted her with my babies.
Kennedy was awesome helping us out with our cat Shelly on short notice. Shelly absolutely loved her and we are so thankful! Kennedy was prompt for drop ins and took great care by sharing photos. We will definitely call on her cat sitting in the future! Thanks Kennedy!
