“I am so thankful for Colleen! She kept in close communication the entire time even with the time zone difference as we were overseas. One of our cats is shy with a medical condition that requires medication, and Colleen found the perfect solution to get her to take her medicine consistently all while keeping her stress levels as low as possible. We came home to two healthy kitties! I really recommend Colleen for her experience! This was my first time using Rover, and I am very happy that my first experience was with someone so great!”
“Sa was great with my full of energy dog. She arrived on time and did exactly as asked. Sa is professional and easy to work with regarding scheduling a time. She sent pictures of my dog during her time with him. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Judy took care of our cat Rusty while we were away!! She is very punctual, took care of all the things Rusty needs on daily basis. She is punctual and flexible with her schedule which helped us greatly. We will definitely work with Jodi again!”
“Pam is amazing and takes such good care of our puppy. I really appreciate how Pam gets him outside and active during her daily visit and keeps up with our training. She is super responsive and came prepared when we first met while asking good questions. Pay gave me a lot of peace of mind that I can go to work and know that my puppy is in good hands.”
“Joceline did a wonderful job taking care of my kitty! He is diabetic and she administered his shots as well, in fact she kept him on schedule and went above and beyond with a very early arrival, his shots are at 6 AM & 6 PM.”
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for about 3 years now and I’ve been walking pets for my whole life! I’ve had experience walking big dogs, around 90lbs, so you don’t need to worry - I also do crossfit so I can handle bigger dogs! I love pets and would love to help out when needed! I am available anytime on the weekend and during the evening time on weekdays. I work a 9-5 so if need be I can also do an early morning call! I stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible—walk times, feeding schedule, playtime, cuddles, and even those weird little rituals they insist on (yes, I’ll fluff their bed exactly how they like it). I make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar space and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you don’t miss a tail wag.
About: For the past seven years, I had the privilege of sharing my life with my dog, Agatha, whom I adopted when she was around seven years old. She recently passed away at an estimated 14 years old after battling cancer. Caring for Agatha, especially during the last few months of her life, taught me patience, compassion, and how to meet a dog exactly where they are. As she got older, she needed more hands-on support. Whether it was helping her stand, carrying her when her body wouldn't cooperate (all 55 pounds of her!), or hand-feeding her because that's how she was most comfortable, I learned that every dog has unique needs and deserves care that respects their personality. Agatha was fiercely independent, so I always tried to give her as much dignity and choice as possible while making sure she felt safe and loved. While I'm not ready to adopt another dog just yet, I truly miss having one in my life. That's what brought me to Rover. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet, whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I live in an apartment with easy access to outdoor walking paths, sidewalks, and a nearby dog park, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, fresh air, and opportunities to explore. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands. I own a local fitness studio, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. Most weekdays, I'm available between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks, drop-in visits, or spending quality time with pets. My mornings typically begin around 8:00 a.m., and I'm at my studio from approximately 9:00–11:00 a.m. and again from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Because I have flexibility throughout the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys an active walk, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you're away. I know that every pet is different, so my first priority is getting to know your dog's routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay or visit. I'll follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, or little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable place to rest. I live in an apartment with easy access to sidewalks, green space, and a nearby dog park for dogs who enjoy socializing (only with your permission). If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Above all, my goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
About: I grew up with two dogs in Florida, so I have experience with walking, feeding, and taking care of them. If my friends need a dog sitter, I am always around to help them out. My current family dog has resource guarding, so I have experience with dogs that have behavioral issues as well. I miss having a dog of my own in Pittsburgh, so I would love to help out with yours! My schedule is flexible. I can guarantee that I am free Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to meet your needs. I am usually available on Tuesdays and Thursdays as well. I am able to help out in your home to care for your dogs. I am able to follow any instructions that you give me. I am a very detail oriented and conscientious person, so you can rely on me to take care of your pet (walking, feeding, exercise, water). I am happy to communicate with you throughout the visit as well!
“Brittany did a great job taking care of my cats. I really appreciated the photos! She also made me aware of someone parking in my driveway and kept me posted on the situation.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of 15+ years of hands-on experience with animals and my genuine passion for providing exceptional, personalized care. Caring for pets has always been something I love, and I take the time to understand each animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I am experienced with dog walking, pet sitting, grooming, puppy care, senior pet care, and providing extra patience and attention when animals need it most. I understand that puppies need consistency, positive reinforcement, exercise, and guidance as they learn, while senior pets often require a gentler approach, extra comfort, and attention to changes in their needs. I also have experience caring for cats and understand the importance of respecting their individual personalities—whether they are playful and social or more independent and reserved. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience providing drop-in care for farm animals, including chickens and goats. Farm visits can include feeding, providing and refreshing water, putting out hay, collecting eggs, and making sure each animal is safe, comfortable, and cared for according to their normal routine. I understand that farm animals have their own routines and care requirements, and I am comfortable taking the time needed to make sure everything is done properly. My goal is to provide more than just basic care. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and enriching experience for every animal while giving owners peace of mind through reliable communication, updates, and personalized attention. Whether I’m caring for a beloved family dog, a shy cat, or a small farm full of animals, I treat every animal with the same level of patience, respect, and care I would want for my own. I feel honored to be trusted with someone’s furry, feathered, or four-legged family members and look forward to providing them with dependable, loving care while you’re away. I am currently dedicating my full-time focus to growing my animal care business, which allows me to provide flexible, reliable, and attentive care for my clients’ pets. Because pet care is my primary commitment, I’m able to give each animal the time, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. My daily routine revolves around creating a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for every pet in my care—whether that means morning walks, playtime, feeding routines, enrichment activities, grooming needs, or simply providing companionship while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take pride in being dependable, responsive, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I offer flexible, dependable pet care options designed to keep your furry family member happy, comfortable, and well cared for in the environment where they feel most at ease. I provide in-home visits, dog walking, and overnight stays for both dogs and cats, with care tailored to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs. Whether your pet needs daily exercise, companionship, feeding routines, medication reminders, playtime, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to provide the level of care that works best for them. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe and loved. I also offer pet grooming services, including basic grooming care to help your pet look and feel their best. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care while giving you peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands.
“Niki clearly loves dogs and was very patient with our shy dog who eventually warmed up to her for a drop in visit. She was also considerate of my mother-in-law who was visiting at the time. Top notch trustworthy service! Thank you Niki!”
“We are so grateful Kaitlyn could drop in to spend time with our pup today. I had such peace of mind knowing that someone who knows and loves dogs was able to take care of my brand new pup! I really appreciated the detailed note/pictures she gave through Rover after her visit. It made me feel like my puppy was safe, content and happy! Will definitely book again!”
About: My family always had quite a few pets growing up. Not just cats and dogs. We had birds, reptiles, fish and farm animals. It wasn’t always easy but it was worth it. Now it’s just my pup Beef, making friends around the neighborhood. My schedule is fairly flexible. Making a regular schedule is always preferred, but last minute requests are welcome. Not all days and pets are the same! I do prefer to care for pets at their owners home, at least at first, where they’re comfortable. If the pet is more independent, walks and feeding can be of service. My pup, Beef loves to play and has brought other dogs out of their shell to socialize. So if they get along, he would be there for our walks and playtime.
About: My name is Katie and I love animals. I'm happy to walk your pup, give them lots of love and play time. My dog Ellie is a rescue so I am patient and ready to treat your baby as my own. I have a kiddo and a family but trying to find something to make a little extra income for us. I can at times do evenings on week days would just need a heads up. I'm usually free on weekends. I will happily communicate if I am not or are available. I will make sure to follow your instructions and update you as much as you'd like. I don't care for pets in my own home but can in yours and do visits. I will be sure to update you with photos, or if anything is needed.
“Leslie is super responsive and sticks to our new rescue puppy’s schedule. She sends updates and always keep us in the loop on how they visit went. She is prompt and seems to enjoy her time with our little pup.”
About: Since 2019, I've worked as a Behavior Care provider at a local animal shelter, an experience that has deeply shaped how I approach animal care. Working closely with so many different animals taught me that each one is truly an individual—with their own personality, needs, and way of seeing the world. I approach every animal with curiosity and understanding, meeting them where they are rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. My training includes behavior care, medication administration, and exercise protocols, along with Karen Pryor clicker training certification in positive reinforcement. I lead with empathy and a genuine love for animals in everything I do. I've also been pet sitting for the past six years, primarily with dogs and cats, though I welcome the opportunity to care for all kinds of animals—I'm a lifelong learner with a deep love for anything animal-related. Outside of animal care, I bring a diverse professional background in clinical oncology research, patient care, advocacy, and navigation. That said, some of my most meaningful time is still spent with our four-legged friends. 🐾 I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be fully present and attentive to the animals in my care. I work remote and have a lot of flexibility throughout the week to accommodate any type of schedule. I am available early morning midday as well as evening and late night. Each animal and each environment is different so I lead with good communication on how each family desires their home and pets to be cared for.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Warrendale
I contracted with Hailey for drop in visits 2x's/day for a cat. I had a long list of directions, which she followed. Chase is stressed when I travel. Each day she sent me pictures of a very happy boy. I felt comfortable with Haily caring for Chase. In the future when I travel I will definitely book with Hailey!
Amy is a fantastic and loving caregiver!! We are so lucky that we found her. She is attuned to both of our pets needs and spends quality time with both them in addition to all the tactical stuff (food, water, potty breaks). She is highly communicative and even brings in packages if they come so the house feels attended to as well! Do yourself a favor and book Amy!!
Allyson was so good with my boys! She went above and beyond for them. She walked them, fed them, gave them their medicine and hung out with them outside during the nice weather days. I got pictures every visit to show how happy they were with her taking care of them. Already booked Allyson for my next trip! Thanks again for being great!
We have been working with Ayla for a couple of years while she lived in Chicago, and we were so sad to learn she was moving home to PGH after graduation. Ayla is extremely reliable and such a wonderful pet sitter. She is very detail-oriented and prepared for every visit. She most recently cared for our cat (cranky) but also has experience with our dog (pittie), and they are both enamored with her. She truly got to know our pets, and her care for them exceeded our expectations. She always provided regular and consistent photos and updates, easing our minds while we were away. From drop-ins to house sitting, we always came home to happy and healthy pets and a clean apartment at that. There's no need to look any further for your go-to sitter because Ayla is it! We can't thank her enough!
Taylor's pet care service was exceptional! Daily reports were much appreciated - and she did much more than we had asked or expected. We could not have been more pleased with her services - and definitely plan to request them again if she continues to provide them. Would highly recommend Taylor!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
