“My cat is anxious and shy and Audrey did a great job keeping her comfortable. She was very responsive and I received regular updates. My cat didn’t want to leave her at the end haha. Would recommend her to anyone. Thanks for everything! 🩷”

“Adrienne is a loving, flexible dog sitter. Her apartment is perfect for dogs. She really puts you at ease with contact while you are on the road. A+”


“Our dog Woody had a great stay with Victoria. It was our first time leaving him and we loved seeing the videos of him that she sent twice a day. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive to any questions. He came home happy and tired from playing with all of his friends.”

“Adam was fantastic with Macy! He sent daily pictures of their activities; even twice on most days! Kept us up-to-date on all things and really gave us peace of mind leaving Macy behind for two weeks. We would 110% reach out to Adam again the next time we need a sitter for Macy.”

“Tia loved my Dash like he was her own. Dash was very well taken care of and loved. I received daily updates with pictures and videos. Tia is also very accommodating. Would highly reccomend to everyone!”

“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.”

“Breanna was absolutely lovely! Zinnia had gotten sick on the way to their home and Breanna was still okay with watching over her! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone, sent lots of pictures, and followed my instructions to a tee (including the extra ones I added last minute to help Zinnia feel better)! Zinnia got used to her very quick and had a wonderful time playing, lounging, and going for walks together!”

“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.”

“Lindsay and her family were so sweet and accommodating. They went out of their way to learn about my puppy and sent updates. They were there when I needed them. Thank you!”

“Nelia took excellent care of Daffy while our family was away! She sent us 2 to 3 updates each day, along with pictures of our dog, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. The photos showed that Daffy wasn't simply being boarded, but was truly being included in the family's daily activities. We could not be happier with the care and service Nelia provided. If you're in the Pittsburgh area and need a reliable, caring dog sitter, we highly recommend her. We will absolutely use her services again in the future. Thank you, Nelia, for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby!”


“Courtney is wonderful with my dogs. I can always go away and feel comfortable leaving them with. I appreciate every thing she does for them and I know they will be safe and well taken care of.”

“Justin was great! He took great care of my dog, giving her multiple walks and play sessions, providing updates throughout her stay. His dog Watson was a great companion for her. I appreciate that he only takes one dog at a time, providing dedicated care while dog sitting. I would have Justin watch my dog again.”

“Emily and Patrick were wonderful! From the beginning, they were asking thoughtful questions about Ruby's needs, routine, and personality. Their dog, Eli, became a new fur friend to our pup, Ruby and the photos and videos they shared while we were away gave us peace of mind. They were also accommodating as we had to change our drop off and pick up times. We will definitely be booking them again!”

“Maura was kind, communicative, and took really great care of our dog, Finn. She sent updates and photos which was much appreciated, and we could tell Finn felt right at home cuddling on the couch. We’d definitely have Maura watch him again!”

“We would like to give Ali 10 stars! She was the best possible caregiver for our nervous goofy dog. She sent dear photos and videos during our trip, and it was so sweet to hear how she spoke to Lucky. On top of all of the expert care, she was extremely gracious and flexible when I made a mistake with the booking dates. We feel so fortunate to have found Ali.”

“Abriana was wonderful with Suki. She arrived on time, was very personable, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving Suki in her care. She uploaded photos, kept me updated, and handled everything perfectly. I’m so grateful and would definitely book with her again.”

“Tiffany did a FANTASTIC job with our kitties. One of my kitties has FLUTD, and she was knowledgeable of the disease and made sure they had fresh water daily and added water to their food. I loved getting all her photos, and I felt confident that my kitties were receiving the very best care. She's very trustworthy, and I will definitely use Tiffany again!!”


“Nicole took wonderful care of my cat during a two-week stay. She gave detailed updates, brushed her teeth, and kept her active with tricks and play. When I picked my cat up, she even helped pack up my cat’s belongings. It was wonderful to see my cat not just comfortable, but thriving in a new environment!! What stood out most to me was Nicole’s genuine dedication to cats. She volunteers at a local cat shelter, and it really shows in the way she cares for animals with patience, kindness, and attentiveness.”


“My cat loves Katie when she comes to visit! Katie gives me great updates on how my cat is doing! I’m always so glad when I know she is stopping in to see him!”


“Rebecca sent excellent updates, photos, and let us know how wonderfully our cats were being cared for! It’s clear she loves animals and took the time for our kitties to get comfortable with her. I would highly recommend her for anyone to take care of their animals :)”


“Jackie worked amazingly well with my Izzy cat. Izzy went immediately to Jackie upon meet & greet. I was very surprised since Izzy is usually shy or tends to swat new friends. Jackie was on time, followed feeding & litter instructions and treated Izzy with care & love. Im so relieved to have found her. Thank you again, Jackie Thank you Rover. Great site.”


About: I have experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities: from shy, independent cats to playful, social ones who want constant attention. I’m patient and respectful of each cat’s boundaries and comfort level, and I always move at their pace. I’m comfortable handling feeding routines, litter box maintenance, enrichment/playtime, and giving medications when needed. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes, which is especially important with cats, and I make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your kitty is doing.

“Regan was absolutely wonderful and put my mind at ease while I traveled for a conference. I have a sick cat, and she was not only understanding, but also communicative and flexible in taking care of him. She also sent tons of photos. I would have her help again in a heartbeat!”

“Ally is great to hire to check in with your pets! She left the space clean, handled my cats’ needs well including oral medication applications, and provide provided pictures at the end of each visit. She is also flexible and responsive and I would highly recommend working with her!”

“Maria is an amazing sitter! We cannot be more grateful and relieved to have someone as Maria watch Penny! Maria is flexible, very kind to Penny and super with her updates.”


“Linn was a phenomenal cat-sitter! She did daily home visits while I was away on a business trip, took amazing care of my girl, and sent me the absolute best pictures for me to know she was doing great! Would absolutely recommend her!”

“Alexander listened well to all the instructions we gave around pet care for our cat Willow and followed through perfectly. He is very responsive and responsible. We are very satisfied and highly recommend him.”


“Disha was a great sitter for our two cats while we were out of town! Both of our girls warmed up to her quickly, even our shy cat. Would trust her with the care of our girls again next time we travel.”


“Lauren is amazing, she has left me detailed notes for every visit and sent many cute pictures. She has even gone above and beyond with a few tasks and her extra help has been incredibly appreciated! I’d rebook her in a moment to take care of my cats.”

“Adrienne is awesome and straight up THE BEST! She is super dedicated, very professional, and easy/very reliable regarding communication. I can’t recommend her highly enough, and I have zero hesitation leaving my Lily with her.”

“Christy is great! She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and double checked instructions on care for my dog. My dog came back so happy and tired after her day with Christy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Tia was a great puppy sitter for our Monty! She updated us throughout the day with videos. Monty was playful and happy. She took great care of our fur baby! Would definitely recommend her.”

“Justin was great as he was able to accommodate a late evening daycare visit for our dog Fran while we went for an event in town. He was incredibly accommodating and flexible with the timing and was very eager to help. His corgi Watson is adorable and a very social dog. Our dog was anxious but Justin was able to keep her company and sooth her while we were gone for a few hours, she eventually relaxed and laid her head on his lap! I would highly recommend Justin to take care of your dog as he loves them and provides great care for them.”


“Amy was great! Cronus has so much fun playing with the other dogs. He will definitely be a regular! She gives great updates and makes sure that your furry friend is taken care of. ☺️”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could leave 6 stars, I would! This was my first ever Rover reservation, so it’s a little overwhelming trying to choose a sitter from all the options — knowing they’re all strangers after all. I booked last minute AND I adjusted my reservation. Sara was so accommodating and flexible with all of my needs. I immediately felt at ease when I met her and her pup Grim, and I knew Cody was in good hands. Definitely will use again and recommend. Thanks for treating Cody like one of your own!”

“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”


“Barrett really was amazing. We booked him last minute (less than 2 hours before we needed him) so we could take in a Pirates game while passing thru Pittsburgh, and he was quite gracious. Our Tucker is nearly 15 and a bit of a nervous Nellie. Barrett took it all in stride. I highly recommend Barrett”

“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.”

“Val is an absolutely incredible dog sitter and we are so lucky to have found her. She is very flexible and communicative with us on dates and times. And most importantly, she is so so amazing with our dog Wilson. He is so excited to go over there every time and she sends so many pictures and videos which are our favorite part! They do so many different activities and Wilson loves her son so much! Cannot rave enough, thank you and see you soon!!”

About: I have had the pleasure of working as a pet care attendant for two separate boarding facilities over the course of 6 years! I also have a few years of experience working as a vet tech assistant! I have lots of experience with animals with different medical needs and have had dogs all my life! I currently am working short part time shifts only a few times a week. Other than that I am available to walk, feed, and play with any pets that need it! I have no other animals in my home, and live near plenty of green space as well as some dog parks for walks and play time!
About: I have had dogs all of my life that were all gotten while they were puppies. Have taught so many fun tricks that I can pass to your best friend too. I’m currently available at all hours to take care of your best friend(s). Though I am active my trainings and games usually keep me busy for a maximum of two hours. I have a nice and safe apartment with easy access to outside and a quick walk to Point State Park will give them all the grass they could ever dream of.
“Valerie was terrific! She treated our little Hattie like her own and provided routine updates with pictures. We've already scheduled our next Doggy Day Care!”

“Fantastic day with Bruno…Walks, naps, lots of attention and yummy treats and food… thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Bruno. He was so nice and understanding when I had to work late..thank you. We will see you again soon.”

“Lucas and his family are super friendly! Nova was exhausted from her day of fun. They have a huge backyard that is fenced, allowing her to run around safely. Definitely would recommend Lucas for daycare :)”

About: I live on an acre of land with more than half of it being yard With more than half of it being Space. I am able to create a bond with animals by giving them affection, attention, and treats. For walking appointments, my schedule is flexible between 10 AM and 7 PM But I’m also available to to offer overnight boarding care and check-in. I like to keep them active, playing, and happy so they could have the best experience I have to offer. I also like to keep the clients informed,and send them pictures. I like to make sure your pet is in my sight so I could keep them safe.
“This is the first time I used Rover for dog sitting, and I absolutely hit the jackpot with Greg!!! I highly recommend him to anyone in the North Hills area of Pittsburgh for dog-related services. He is very friendly, caring, highly flexible, and trustworthy, and he maintained excellent communication/was highly responsive during the week that he watched my lab, Lily. Not a single concern crossed my radar leaving Lily with Greg for doggy day care. I knew she was in good hands and would be looked after well.”

“I’ve never had someone check on my dog in my home before. I am so glad I found Ashley and that she agreed to check in and walk my dog Kenya. I needed help last minute, and she agreed to walk my dog so quickly. She sent pictures and great updates about their walk and how Kenya did. I had peace of mind at work knowing that Kenya was getting her exercise and some affection. I will definitely continue to book with Ashley!!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover! I have had dogs my whole life, and currently have 2 senior dogs that I am trusted to take care of. In addition, I pet sit for neighbors when they are away, and have done so throughout high school and college. I also adopted a cat in 2021, doing the necessary research for cat ownership! And have had a gecko, so I am no stranger to reptiles. I am currently a student at Pitt, majoring in education. I am available Mondays (evenings), Tuesdays (morning/evening), Wednesday (evening), Thursdays (morning/evening), Fridays (evenings), Saturdays, and Sundays!! The longest I am away when petsitting is no more than 6 hours (Mondays and Wednesdays). I try to be as available as possible when taking care of pets. This means staying with them as much as possible, spending the night, etc. At the owners request! I also don’t mind doing work such as bathroom cleanup, brushing, certain foods, administering pills, etc. Whenever I take care of someone’s animals, I like to treat them as my own and prioritize their wellbeing!
“Tiffany is on time and does a great job with Coco. She gets her exercise for sure and is tired and content when she gets back. Thank you Tiffany.”

“Laura is absolutely great! She’s so good with Jameson and he gets excited every time the door bell rings to go for his walk! Her communication and willingness to help goes above and beyond!”

“Shannon is an absolute gem! As a newer dog owner and a very new member of Rover it’s been so lovely to have someone take the time to explain everything. I’m a fairly anxious dog parent lol and Shannon has reassured me at every step of the process. 10/10 would recommend!!!”

“I cannot say enough about Gabriella. She is incredibly professional and has such amazing, positive energy. We have two beagles, and from the very first meet and great, they felt completely comfortable and excited around her. Which says a lot! It is truly clear that she knows how to connect with dogs. Every walk last week seems to have gone smooth, reliable, and based by the pictures I received, full of happy tail wags. I feel totally at ease knowing my pups are in such great hands. Highly recommended.”

“We were in Pittsburgh for our wedding and were lucky enough to book with a few days notice. She was responsive and communicative. Very easy to book with and seemed capable of handling our awkward and anxious catahoula tripod.”

“Brittani was great to work with, super quick to respond and was able to help with such short notice. Mosa seemed to love her, so we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Ava was great with my pup! She responded quickly, was reliable, and took her on a nice walk. I really appreciated the prompt photo updates and communication throughout the visit. I would definitely book with Ava again and would recommend her to others looking for a dependable dog walker.”

About: For more than 10 years, I have volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I care for dogs by feeding, walking, and supporting their daily needs. I have been a lifelong dog owner and have developed a strong understanding of their care and behavior. I currently have two dogs: a dachshund and a medium-sized Labrador/Pit Bull mix. Spending time with dogs is something I enjoy, and caring for them is rewarding. Their companionship brings me a great deal of happiness. I currently work full-time and am available during the evenings. Beginning in the fall, I will also be attending school, so my availability will vary depending on the day. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my dogs, especially playing with their favorite toys. We often play fetch outside and enjoy relaxing together in the sunshine.
“Super sweet person! Our golden, Ellie, seemed to really enjoy spending time with Jackie on her walk and she was able to use her commands and had control of her but was still very friendly and caring. I would definitely recommend Jackie.”

About: My love for dogs is unmatched! I’m a junior in college who absolutely adores dogs and also happens to want to make money for tuition😂 School Year Hours: House sitting only available on weekends (Fri-Sun/Mon) Walking/Drop Ins available on Mon, Wed, Fri It’s a confusing schedule so if you need anything please reach out and I’m sure we can work something out! I will treat your animals with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Everything I do, I put 110% into, and I’ll make sure your pups feel loved! I always make sure to check if there’s ever notes from the client, get the important things done (like meds, food, necessary walks/bathroom) and then be able to focus on playtime or whatever your pup wants!
About: I am a college student with two dogs of my own at home. I am the biggest animal lover and treat all pets as if they were my own! I do not remember a time in my life where I haven't been involved in some way with animals. Whether that has been working on a farm, volunteering at a small animal clinic, showing my pet rabbit, or competing in horse competitions, all pets of many different shapes and sizes have been at the forefront of my life! I am highly active and will happily take your dog on walks, runs, hikes, and beach days if you'd like me too. I am also totally down to play inside and keep your pup company at your home! I am accustomed to giving dogs medication as I have a senior dog myself. I will be sure to send lots of pictures and videos while your away because I know how hard it is to leave our best friends! I can be highly flexible with my schedule. I work part time and therefore can typically make most situations work, just reach out and let me know what works best for you! They will be treated like a king/queen! I am used to an excited dog on a leash. I can be patient and accommodating for slower pups as well. I will follow directions exactly and have no issue with picky and particular dogs.

“Linn is so sweet! This was my first experience with Rover and I’m so thankful that I booked with Linn. She went above and beyond and met with me/my dog a couple of days before walking her, just to ensure that my dog would recognize a friendly face coming to walk her. You can tell Linn is a total animal lover and is great w dogs. Wonderful communicator, can’t recommend highly enough!”
