“Amanda and Jack were absolutely amazing! My girl, Onyx, had an issue with her elbow, and they handled the situation with incredible care, compassion, and professionalism. They kept me updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind, and they even took her on a nature hike so she could enjoy some time outdoors. It's clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. I highly recommend Amanda's services and wouldn't hesitate to trust them with Onyx again!”
“Nelia took wonderful care of Cesar and kept us updated with photos while he was in her care! We felt totally at ease knowing that she would care for Cesar as if he were her dog. We trusted her and felt so grateful that she kept him for a holiday weekend especially with short notice! I would not hesitate to recommend Nelia and her family. Cesar was very happy being part of the family!”
“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”
“Cannot express how amazing AJ was! We did an initial meet and greet and booked following. AJ is extremely communicative throughout your stay, and would highly recommend him. My dog may have caused AJ a bit of a scare, but even throughout I couldn’t have asked to have Flannel in better hands. Amazing sitter! Thank you x 1000!!!”
“Maria is a wonderful pet sitter and went above and beyond for my pup! Shadow left feeling happy and even got a goodie bag and cute picture at the end of the week! Thank you so much for providing daily pictures and a loving home for my pup while we were out of town!!”
“We are over the moon in love with Tia and her home as a home-away-from-home for our darling Rudy. We have never been so happy with the care he gets when we are away as we are now, having had him stay at Tia's home. We could see in every picture she sent that he was happy and thriving. He was always smiling, playing, cuddling or snoozing and he just looked so happy in every picture sent to us.. We feel that Rover was a fabulous find for us, but more than that, choosing Tia was the best decision we've made for dog care in years. Just knowing he was in such a supportive environment eliminated all our worries about leaving him while we traveled. This was the best experience ever! Tia cared for our dog just the way we wanted, and it was so nice to have him in her home, rather than a cement and chain link kennel.”
“Audrey was absolutely great with Emma. Sent me pics and vids daily showing her playing. Was super flexible in how long I needed to board my cat. Hoping she’s available for the next time I need to go away”
“Elizabeth was wonderful!!! I left my dog for the first time ever and she made it so easy for me! Excellent communication and excellent care! My fur baby will definitely be back there!”
“Emily did a great job at watching Luna while I was away for the week. My only advice would be to maybe send more pictures or updates but Luna seemed happy enough when I picked her up so I know that she had a nice time. Would recommend and use again!”
“Alexis and Kevin took great care of our dog, Aira. They were flexible, communicative and sent us regular pics of Aira who felt at home there with lot of dog friends to play with. We will reach out again in future when we need help.”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets and animals with unique care needs. My experience includes daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, administering oral medications, basic grooming, and reinforcing training routines. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort and happiness while providing photo messages, videos and updates so you can have peace of mind. Every pet receives personalized care based on their personality and routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so I’m available for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime and plenty of companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, meditations (if needed) and any special requests.
“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.”
“Sadie was with Paul for 9 days. She was well taken care of. Paul is very conscientious and kind. Sent photos regularly. Responded quickly to any correspondence we sent. I would highly recommend his services.”
“Christine is a super-duper sitter. Winnie is always happy and healthy when I pick her up. C is great at communicating both happy pictures and concerns as well as flexible timing. Thanks Christine!”
“Ellyn and her family are simply the best!! They’ve watched our little Bobo (80 lb australian shepard lol) a few times and the most recent was for about a week and a half. She kept us updated and sent lots of pics which helped as I get anxious leaving him!! They live in a great location and bobo got so many walks and even had other doggy friends staying with him. We could tell he loved his time with her!! 10/10 recommend:)”
“Ali was fantastic. Great communication and photos which confirmed that Rosie was very happy! It was clear she really enjoyed having Rosie which made me even more comfortable. We will definitely use Ali again.”
“Emily and Patrick were great sitters for Nola while we were away attending a wedding. They sent multiple pictures and video updates for us, and Nola had a great time playing with Eli! Thank you so much 😊”
About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.
“Adrienne does an amazing job with Finn! She kept us updated with the absolute cutest pictures and videos of him playing with Phoebe and snuggling on their couch. When we got home, he was so snoozy after having a great few days playing with his buddies. Thanks again for taking great care of our little guy.”

“Cailynn kept us so informed after her visits with Simon! I’ve only had him for a year and Simon is my first cat ever so I was nervous about leaving him. The updates and pictures gave me peace of mind that he was comfortable and taken care of. I will definitely be asking Cailynn to help me again!”
“Karsyn was amazing! Even tho we booked her last minute during a holiday weekend, she was super nice, punctual, flexible, and helpful! The animals absolutely loved her, which I could tell through the great pictures she took of them during the visits! She had excellent communication and was overall above and beyond expectations! We will be using her again :)”
“Jenna was amazing!! She cared for our cat Everest like her own. She gave great and detailed updates so I knew my cat was being well taken care of. Will absolutely use for future drop ins and pet sittings!”
“Blair was spot on. We loved the customer service she provided us and took excellent care of Murphy and Ella. The cats are going to miss her. Thank you Blair. We will be using her again.”
“Our 13 and 14 y/o high-maintenance kitties were so delighted with Kristie's care. They took to her right away which is definitely not common. She communicated with us well and understood our action-packed kitty schedule. We felt at ease while we were away for a weekend trip with Kristie at the helm!”
“Abbigail did an awesome job taking care of my cat Toby! She was responsible and reliable and our cat warmed up to her quickly. My cat also requires injected medication 2x/day and abbi was gentle with him and was able to get his medication in. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Zachary was fantastic! He completed drop in stops for our cat while we were out of town. He sent great updates and pictures during his drop ins. Next time we need a sitter for our cat, we will book with Zachary again.”
About: I have lived with cats my whole life but I consider the start of my experience when I first got my own cat that wasn't just a family cat. Since then I trained him to do several tricks, nothing too complicated just sit, wait, and paw/shake but considering that he was a cat that was more than enough. I have also raised three kittens the youngest starting at just under 4 weeks old, he was abandoned in my neighbor's yard. All three grew up to be friendly and confident cats only one is mine the other two being a friend's cat and a family cat.
About: I’ve taken care of my families cats and my own! I’ve loved to take care of kittens and love the energy younger cats have to offer. I’d love to learn individualized care for each and every one of my clients cats!
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
About: I’ve connected to cats naturally since childhood. I learned to respect their boundaries at a very young age. While interacting with your cat, I’ll consider everything between my body language and tone of voice to ensure your cat feels safe with me.
“Good communication, kind, considerate. She went above and beyond to make sure my "non-traditional" pets also had water in addition to my cat. She was respectful of my house, and I will be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Jessica was great with our Hazel! Hazel gets a bit nervous around new people, but Jessica took the time to make her as comfortable as possible. Thanks to Jessica we were able to enjoy a weekend away worry free!”

“We couldn’t be happier with Maria! She was as calm and reassuring with us as she was with Beau. We received photos through the day, and a special package of treats was tucked into his bag when we unpacked at home. So happy to know we have a safe and serene place for Beau when we need to travel.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have loved animals my entire life. I have been a pet sitter for many friends and neighbors over the years and had my own canine companion for 10 years. She passed away in November of 2023. Animals deserve to be loved and treated like family. I promise that your dogs will be treated very well and that they will truly enjoy their “vacation” at my home. It’s difficult to leave your “loved ones” in the care of others and I know that feeling. Rest assured that they will be cared for and spoiled to the best of my ability! I am a behavioral therapist who works with children and families. I have a hybrid job which means that I work from home doing Telehealth services and I also see clients in person at times. I am home for most of the day and this worked perfectly when I cared for my late dog, Arwen. I do not have any pets currently. I have an elevated deck that is only accessible from the house. It is surrounded and my dog loved to spend time out there basking in the sun. I have a yard but it is not fenced in. My neighborhood is quiet and very dog friendly.
“Sara was amazing !! She was very flexible with booking even when it was very last minute. She was very kind and sweet and sent us photos of our puppy. I would 100% reccomend booking with her! I look forward to book with her in the future!”
“Deanna could not have been better with my two dogs. My Malamute was getting jealous of any attention Deanna got from any other dog, including my Pomsky, and she handled it wonderfully. She, very obviously, loves dogs and knows how to handle them. Also, her dogs were wonderful.”
“Where do I start! Christy has to be the best rover sitter, border, anything and everything dog in the area. She is so great with dogs and really made us feel better when we were away from our dog. She also understood when we needed her to watch him longer than planned. She is a saint and I am so excited to go to her again. She also sends you photos through out the day of your dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!”
“Laura and her son Jesse were the best with my puppy. She sent me pictures throughout the day to keep me updated and I could tell that they both gave him lots of love and attention. I felt very much at ease leaving my puppy with them while I worked. 1000 percent recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of small animals since I was a kid. I was always the student who volunteered to take the class pet home for extended breaks from school. Some of the animals I cared for included leopard geckos, hamsters, and Guinea pigs! I have loved animals ever since 😊 Besides class pets, I grew up babysitting my Aunt’s dog, Oscar, whenever she went on vacation or needed some extra help. I got my first dog when I was 12 and he’s still living with us today. I am offering all services for small to medium sized dogs. I am relatively free for dog care through Rover as I work a part time job in my spare time. I also used to have a job at a doggy daycare so I have plenty of experience with dog behavior :) I can assure you that daily walks and cuddles with your pup fit into my schedule <3 We have one small dog named Gizmo who is a 9 year old Shih-tzu mix. He is super friendly as he loves both people and dogs! We do not have a fenced yard but we regularly take trips to the local dog park. Additionally, we have a fenced deck where the dogs can get some fresh air. I know it can be intimidating to leave your pet with a stranger. As such, I try to make everyone feel welcome. I assure you that I am dedicated to your pet’s safety and well-being and promise to care for your pet as if they were my own. They will become a part of the furry family for the duration of their stay ♥️
About: My husband and I have cared for and owned dogs our whole lives. We understand every dog has different needs and personalities, and we love to take the time to get to know dogs individually so they can feel safe and comfortable around us. We recently lost our sweet boy Geno who was our best friend and we feel we have lots of love to give another dog while in our home. Being at stay at home mom makes it really easy to be available to care for dogs in our home. We have a fenced in yard just off of our back door with lots of space so lots of potty breaks will be available! :) We have a larger sized fenced in backyard with no surrounding dogs around our property where dogs can safety play, relax, and use the bathroom. Inside the home we have a large crate if needed and the rest of the home is free to be explored by your furry friend. We will always follow any schedules/routines, meds, etc for your pet and are happy to accommodate anything to make them comfortable.
About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a lifelong animal lover based in the Pittsburgh area. I understand that pets are family, and when you leave them with someone else you want the same care, attention, and safety you’d give them yourself. I spent 13 years with my sweet mini poodle mix Theo, who taught me how much love and personality can live in one small dog. Because of him, I’m especially attentive to each pet’s unique quirks, routines, and comfort needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, couch snuggles, or a consistent routine, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most at home. I’m dependable, communicative, and I’ll send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet will be treated with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own. I currently work from home and have complete flexibility with my job to ensure your pet gets as much attention, walks, and love throughout the day as they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely, provide a calm environment, and ensure they are always supervised, secure, and well cared for. I will always send you updates and let you know what we are up to on our days together.

About: Since I was born, I have had dogs and cats around me. I have delivered cats and dogs when living on a farm, and taken care of them my whole life. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, as well as reactive and rescue animals. Although I do not currently have any pets of my own, I often am the friend who pet sits because of my love for animals. I would love to eventually get my own animal, but I am not currently in the financial situation to provide the life for an animal that it deserves, so this is a fun way for me to be around animals! I work remote, so I have very open flexibility. I am the go-to friend when going out of town and needing someone to care for your baby. I am easily able to work on the go, and can even work from your own home if needed. As well, I am a graduate student, but I only have classes in the evening. Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to visit your pet in their own home, and take them out regularly for walks and bathroom breaks. In my own home, I do not currently have any pets, but I have a pet friendly home and a large fenced in back yard. I am comfortable being in a client's home and taking their dogs around their neighborhoods. Because of my housing situation, I offer boarding services. I have lots of space for big dogs, and my backyard creates a safe space for reactive dogs to get some energy out without other people or dogs around.
“My dogs had so much fun with Denyal, they didn’t want to leave! She gave them outdoor time and made sure they were comfortable inside. Will be using her again, for sure!”
“Sandy is the best, consistently! She pays special attention to our dog’s needs. It’s like dropping her off with a family member. We deeply appreciate Sandy and wouldn’t trust our girl with anyone else!”
About: I have been raising cats my entire life and currently have 2 12 year old cats. I have taken care of others dogs and recently got my own. I currently am in between jobs so I have open availability to be able to check on your pet and give you peace of mind while away. I do bathroom breaks every 0-2 hours with walks mixed in throughout the day. Feeding however you would like your pet to be fed. Lots of playtime!
“Barrett was fantastic. I was passing through Pittsburgh on a holiday weekend and needed someone to watch my two 1 1/2-year-old beagles while I attended a Pirates games with friends. Barrett welcomed Harper & Quincy to his home, provided regular updates, and took great of them (including giving meds). Would absolutely use again.”
“Carly is amazing!! She took impeccable care of my puppy all day. It gave me total peace of mind while I had to be at work. Carly sent me several updates and many GORGEOUS photos of Rosie’s adventures. It was clear my little girl was having the best time! I can’t thank Carly enough!”
About: While I am currently unemployed and staying at my parents home, our family dog (Havanese) of 17 years recently passed away in February 2026. Now that my mother is retiring this summer, we wish to fill the empty home, and our combined newly gained free time, with some furry friends! For in-home boarding we will be a mother-son team with pretty wide open schedules to care for our furry guests, and will provide a great big house and yard in a great pet-friendly neighborhood for them to enjoy! I can also sit at your home if that is more convenient for you and the pet. My parents dog recently passed away at the age of 17. While I was living with them I helped to raise and care for her throughout the years. I thankfully and gratefully have always had dogs to care for throughout my entire life, from as a young child all the way to just recently with the passing of our most recent dog in February 2026. Your pet will have our full attention and their health and happiness will be the priority. We don't live very busy lives and have lots of extra free time now to care for them.

“Maryann has been an absolute blessing! To find someone that appreciates all the sweet things about our Pup and treats him with such kindness and care means we have someone to help provide our doggo with dog walking when we really need it. She is so attentive and sweet to check in with me first before doing something. It’s lovely to have someone we trust so much, highly recommend!! (And thanks Maryann for everything you do for us and our fur baby!)”

About: Hello! I recently joined back on Rover. During Covid, my husband and I became parents to a little boy and it was time to take a break. Now I'm back! I work remotely and my schedule is pretty flexible during the day. I'm available for walks, check-in, and doggy daycare (in your home, sorry I don't like to stress my cat out with new animal friends). A little background: I have always grown up with medium to large dogs and have dog sat for family/friends for over 10 plus years. I have a cat named Cali (6 years old) and have had dogs and many types of fish growing up. I love all types of animals so I am happy to take care of any other family members you may have. I am very responsible and will always be punctual to any appointments, as well as be easy to contact. You can contact me by email, text, or call. I'm happy to play, walk, and care for your pets and of course, am very willing to put forth the patience and time needed to get to know your dog. I also love the outdoors, and will happily run/walk with your more energetic dogs. Thank you! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide daytime walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, and giving pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions while making sure your pet receives plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable while you're away. At this time, I am primarily offering dog walks and drop-in visits for all animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
“I give this person five stars all the way! She was great and was able to handle my girl while I’m laid up with a knee injury. Thank you! She came on time and was awesome!”
About: I truly have unlimited patience for all pets and especially dogs. I love interacting with them and truly making them feel special and appreciated. Getting some daily exercise is crucial not only for their physical health but also equally as important, their mental health! I currently have my own small business that has allowed me a lot of downtime during the late morning and into the early afternoon on weekdays. I would love to fill this free time by taking care of your beloved pets! Dogs will be fully leashed before leaving the home for their walk. Doors will be double checked before leaving/entering to check for pets nearby. Your property will be treated as if it were my own during my visit.
“I highly recommend Candace she was a lifesaver during a very busy time for me. She went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was taken care of he even told me that Candace rocks.. meaning he was a very happy puppy!!”
“Ericka was such a huge help and was so responsive. We look forward to working with her again when we are in Pittsburgh. Thank you so much for your help!”
About: I’ve watched dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. I’ve been a pet owner most of my life. I have watched all ages, sizes, and breeds. Since I’m a freelancer, my schedule is extremely flexible. Here to help! Work with big and small dogs and old and young dogs regularly. Let me know ahead of time if you have any special instructions for your pets. Whether it’s a specific dietary restriction or a medication, it’s important I know what I’m getting into before I accept a gig. I’m very comfortable staying overnights with pets as long as groceries or grocery money is provided along with a comfortable accommodations as I try my best to stay with your pet most of the day if not the whole day. My schedule is flexible due to my freelancer life. I can set routines with your pets if needed. I’m great at following instructions and will make sure to communicate with you updates. Whatever you need, I got you covered. I’ll visit your home and follow whatever routine you provide me for your fur baby. If dogs are allowed to go on adventures, I like taking them to dog parks or petco for a treat. It’s important to make sure your pet is exercised, fed, and ready to nap so when you come home your pup or kitty will be happy to see you.
About: I've been dog sitting for neighbors, friends, and Family since my senior year of High School. I have dogs watched all sized dogs . I love dogs, dogs love me. I think animals are better than humans. I will spoil them with walks, love and treats while they are in my care. Recently let go from my work at a non profit. Thinking my of next move. Have free time now. Need something to do while I figure out my next move. I don't have a fenced in yard but I live on a flat easy walkable street. Im also a few miles away from several different parks. Your pets are welcome to lay and sleep on the furniture (its use to it) I have a big front window they can look out if they like. I can give them meds and shots if needed.
About: My name is Nicole and I have always loved animals in general. I'm looking to spend more time with dogs and cats without having to make the commitment of having another dog/cat permanently. I have two dogs already, their names are Boo and Honey. Honey is two and Boo is 8. I also have two cats Ozzy and Forrest. They were foster brothers. If you have any questions I didn't answer in this little description, feel free to ask. I have no problem answering any questions you might have to make you feel secure leaving your pet with me! I work night shift so I have plenty of time during the day to care for your pet. I also work 3 12s so I have 4 days off a week. I have two friendly dogs and two kitties to keep your pet comfortable and entertained. I have a quiet neighborhood that makes for a relaxing stroll.
About: Hello!! I've had my own cat since 2017 and am an avid stray feeder (and occasional trapper). I also volunteer at Kitty Queen Cat Rescue at least 2 days a week, usually doing morning cat care (but sometimes you can find me there during open hours). I feed all of the cats, replace water, scoop litter boxes, clean up whatever I might find, and give medication when needed. I encounter all different types of personalities and customize my approach to each one. I've been volunteering there since October 2025. I've also been pet sitting personally to friends since I was a teenager. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of animals and building trust with them, especially the shy ones. Truly nothing makes me happier than scooping 20 litter boxes with cats all around me. I also regularly take care of my friend's dog who is a spunky and reactive, but very sweet, terrier mix. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to my own cat, so I will understand if you need consistent pictures or a FaceTime call to calm your nerves! I once drove home in a blizzard because I couldn't see my cat on my cameras (she was completely fine). I'm also working on getting my Fear Free Pet Sitter Certification as I believe in preventing as much fear, anxiety, and stress as possible in all pets. Furthermore, I don't believe in assigning spite or malice to any animals. They are all innocent creatures to me. <3 I'm currently only working part-time so I have a lot of time to take care of your pets!! I can do mornings, afternoons, evenings, etc. One of the things I pride myself on is not only taking care of your pet like I would my own, but also your home. I'm a neat freak so I promise to leave it better than I found it! My least favorite part of taking a trip is coming home knowing my apartment would be a mess due to my cat sitter just not really caring. Not with me!
About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for animals since I was 10 years old. I’ve owned a boxer for the past 10 years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily care, exercise, feeding, playtime, and understanding dogs’ different personalities and needs. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, check in on, and care for their pets while they were away. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I recently finished student teaching and currently have interviews for teaching positions throughout the summer, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available most weekdays and have open availability on weekends as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, active, and cared for. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines to help pets feel relaxed while their owners are away. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and needs and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also keep a clean, safe environment and treat every pet like they’re my own.
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life. I take care of my 2 dogs at home, while helping out family and friends by walking and feeding their pets. I am graduating from college in May, currently work part-time, and would like to use my extra time to spend time with and play with your pets! I will come to your house to feed, play, and walk your dog(s). If your dog is car friendly, i would be more than happy to take them to a park. If you have a cat, I will clean their litter box, feed and give them water, I can also play with them if that is something they like.
“Elise has been very responsive and reliable. She arranged to come meet myself and my dog before his first scheduled walk. She gave me information about the walk, and provided a photo. We will absolutely continue to rely on Elise! She is super flexible as my schedule fluctuates often with my dog walking needs as well.”
About: I've been the go-to sitter for my friends/family for years because they know how much I love being around animals. During the day, I work professionally as a dog bather, which deepens my understanding and care for pets. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. With two cats who are my whole heart, I truly understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family when you are away. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or overnight care. I’m here to help. As a professional dog bather, I understand the importance of routine and care. While I work during the day, I can be flexible with my schedule as long as I have enough notice. I’m happy to accommodate both short notice requests and regular routines, working closely with your pet’s specific schedule to keep things consistent and stress-free. I provide most of my care in the client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routine. Whether it’s walking, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved.
About: I am brand new to the Pittsburgh area & we close on our home in Bethel Park soon, but I am a long time Rover worker. I had several clients in Oregon where we are from, but am eager to get started here. I grew up in southern Arizona & have experience with all kinds of animals. I currently have one large breed dog that we got from a rescue out of Boise, but recently lost my little old man dog right before we moved to PA. I’m a true animal lover & am excited to get back into the Rover game in this area. I have no problem waking up early for a walk before breakfast, I have an hour lunch, & can spend the evening with your animals too. I have a fully fenced yard & live right by the walking path in Ontario. I do have a senior dog in my home & he can get annoyed with puppies, but honestly he doesn’t really acknowledge other dogs.
About: I have had animals all my life. I have also worked with trainers and have hands on experience. I rode horses competitively for many years so am comfortable around any animal. At my childhood home I have a German Shepard and a Shih Tzu, along with two cats. In my own home I have two cats and a dog. Not at my home but I do have a horse! Have cared for multiple horses over the years along with barn work. I am currently a nanny about to start massage school in the summer! I also provide pet care of my employers. I have evening and weekend availability. I’ve worked with small and big dogs. I don’t think I’ve ever met an animal that hasn’t liked me. I’m very patient and trustworthy. I also know how to properly interact with cats.
“Kailyn has been walking our dog Sadie a few times a week and is very reliable and great at communicating. She goes above and beyond what’s expected. We are very comfortable with her and look forward to having her also do boarding for us in the future!”

“Amanda and Jack were absolutely amazing! My girl, Onyx, had an issue with her elbow, and they handled the situation with incredible care, compassion, and professionalism. They kept me updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind, and they even took her on a nature hike so she could enjoy some time outdoors. It's clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. I highly recommend Amanda's services and wouldn't hesitate to trust them with Onyx again!”
“Nelia took wonderful care of Cesar and kept us updated with photos while he was in her care! We felt totally at ease knowing that she would care for Cesar as if he were her dog. We trusted her and felt so grateful that she kept him for a holiday weekend especially with short notice! I would not hesitate to recommend Nelia and her family. Cesar was very happy being part of the family!”
“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”
“Michelle and her other half watched Ducky for us and gave her a vacation during our time apart. She was loved on a lot. If you are trying to decide to book Michelle or not I am not an internet or reviewer type and I'm leaving this review to say this person truly does a wonderful job taking care of your pet while you are away.”
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of pets. Growing up with multiple pets taught me how to recognize their needs, provide loving care, and keep them safe and comfortable. I currently enjoy going on daily walks, so I'm happy to give dogs the exercise and attention they need. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll treat them like they're my own. I'm reliable, patient, and understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. My schedule is very flexible right now! I recently returned to IUP to finish my senior year of nursing school. While I’m here, I’m available most days for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits whenever possible. My class schedule varies each day, but I’m flexible and will always work around it to provide your pets with the best care and attention! When caring for pets in my client's home, I always follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I use a leash for all walks and outdoor potty breaks, and I can crate dogs when needed if that's part of their routine. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I'm happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any special care your pet requires. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you're away.
“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.”
“Tamara was an excellent sitter for my little dog! I will definitely book her in the future! I'm not sure my dog even wanted to come home. She was comfortable there from the get go! Tamara also went above and beyond when my dog grabbed a chicken bone thrown in the grass.”
“Took great care of my pup, sent lots of pictures of him socializing well with the other dogs, and generally kept me looped in. I can tell he had a great time and would definitely recommend Denyal!”
“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.”
“Sadie was with Paul for 9 days. She was well taken care of. Paul is very conscientious and kind. Sent photos regularly. Responded quickly to any correspondence we sent. I would highly recommend his services.”
“Kristina is your girl!!! We had an unexpected emergence and had to fly out of state. Kristina responded to our request for a sitter and helped me through the process (I’d never used Rover). She was available for last minute drop off and made me feel comfortable about where our dog was while we were dealing with an extremely stressful situation. She sent pictures of our pup and encouraged us to check in whenever. Squishy came home smelling like she just had a bath and had fully washed blankets. Kristina went above and beyond and we can’t thank her enough for her kindness. 5 stars doesn’t do her justice! If we need help again we know who we’ll be contacting. We highly recommend her services! Thanks Kristina!”
“As always, Valerie was amazing with our little furry family member Penny. It gives us great peace of mind to know that Penny is being cared for by someone as kind, thoughtful, and competent as Valerie. We highly recommend her for your pet! She is the best and we are grateful that she can care for Penny!”
“A great service. Rover provided us with participating sitters in our area. Lisa put our minds at ease, as this was a first time for us to leave our boy with anyone. We were updated on our boy throughout the evening. Thank you.”
“I can not recommend Amy highly enough! She was our savior this week when a personal trip piled on top of a work trip and then an unexpected funeral. Amy went above and beyond to not only watch our boys, but to love hem so well. She sent photos at just the right times that I needed to see them. Love her!”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Christy is very kind and welcomed our large, sometimes rambunctious, rescue pup into her home. She provided frequent pictures and updates while we were away. We are so appreciative!”
“Rae was amazing. My dogs can be shy, but they were happy and comfortable during their stay. Rae was a great communicator; she had quick responses and sent regular photo updates of the dogs. I would definitely rebook and recommend.”
“I had such a wonderful experience. Onyx was well cared for, loved, and treated like family. I really appreciated the communication and updates while I was away, which gave me peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Sandy, to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. I will definitely be using her again! 🐶❤️”
