“Working with Gary is a total pleasure. He is kind, responsive and very attentive to detail. It's always such a relief to be able to head out of town without having to worry about my cats - I'd look forward to working with Gary again any time!”
“Clareese takes such good care of our cat!! She takes lots of pictures and gives detailed updates. We would highly recommend her for all of your pet sitting needs. We love her!!!”

“Gabrielle is an amazing cat sitter! She's so kind and obviously loves animals. She did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 kitties. We will absolutely ask her again and highly recommend her services.”
“Kaylah was a wonderful kitty sitter! We were so happy to have her. She refilled the feeders and emptied the litter box even when I told her originally she wouldn't have to. The kitties were very well cared for!”
About: I have taken care of/owned dogs for 15 years. I have experience with all sizes of dogs, as well as various breeds. I love animals of all kinds! I have also owned and cared for cats, reptiles, and small critters like guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and rabbits! We recently had to put our dog down due to illness, so I want to help other dog owners take care of their furry family members! I am a therapist and work a part-time, flexible schedule. I am available for morning, afternoon and evening drop-ins throughout the work week as well as weekends! In my home, I have a yard with a runner or can take your dog out on their leash if you prefer. We have one story so minimal steps involved for older pups. In your home, I will ensure that I keep your animals safe within the environment provided. I will remain with the animal for the entirety of my time with them, and let you know immediately if I recognize any concerns for their safety.
“Sheena has always been so great with both our dogs! Our dog Jake has trouble getting along with some people but she took the time to come have a little meet and greet with him before we left for our trip and he absolutely loved her! She is extremely reliable and gives regular updates. Absolutely recommend!”
About: Growing up surrounded by animals, my love for my pets naturally evolved to leaning towards caring for other people's pets. I bring 6 years of reliable, hands-on pet care experience spanning multiple life stages — from energetic puppies navigating their first milestones to adult pets needing attentive companionship. Over the years, I have managed a wide variety of temperaments and behavioral quirks, ensuring that every dog and cat in my care feels secure, comfortable, and loved. What truly distinguishes my service is my proactive, communication-first approach combined with a calm, adaptable energy. I don't just check the boxes for feeding and walks; I focus entirely on mirroring your pet's normal routine to minimize any separation anxiety. I prioritize absolute transparency, providing you with detailed, high-quality updates and photos so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away. Whether it be drop-in visits at your home or boarding your pet at mine, I always treat your pet with the utmost respect and like family. As I have dogs of my own, it will fit like a glove as I will be caring for your dog alongside my own. I will treat your dog like my own. Dogs are very important to me regardless whether it’s my own dog or someone else’s. I will make sure that dog is safe and feels cared for in any environment.
“Andrew was reliable and communicative for each visit. We got pictures of all of our pup’s activities and he managed our teething puppy. Will definitely come back to him in the future!”
“My cat is very shy but Rosa was excellent with him! She did an amazing job in looking after him. By the end of her sitting, my cat opened up to her and this never happened before! I'm confident that she will get along and be friendly with any pets. Definitely recommend!”
About: I love dogs and grew up with them! Though I don't have the space for them now, I've been missing some puppy playtime! Both of my parents are vets as well, so I'm also pretty well versed in all things pet care! I do work full-time, but a lot of my job can be done from home depending on the amount of notice I have before discussing that with my boss. That being said my weekends are pretty open as well as the occasional monday. I typically work from home every other monday! I love all animals! Growing up I had 2 dogs and then foster failed 2 cats! Those 2 cats currently live with my parents, but I'm bringing them up here when I move into my own place. Both of my roommates also have cats!
About: I am a huge animal lover, in particular, dogs and cats. I enjoy running and would love to have a dog join me for a run during the evening. I owned an Australian Cattle Dog. I do work a full time job Monday through Friday but I am free during the evenings and on weekends to walk or run or sit with your dog. I would also be opened to discuss walking your pet in the early morning depending on the time. I would take care of your dog as if he or she was my own pet. The most experience I have with dogs is owning one and taking care of it. I don’t have any special skills that I can talk about. Thank you I am available in the evenings after 5:30pm and most weekends. Occasionally I am available early mornings during the week. My schedule is very flexible on the weekends. I will provide consistent care, maintaining a safe and clean environment, and offering personalized attention to meet the pet's specific needs for food, water, exercise, and medication.
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, so I love taking care of them. I have had puppies in the household as well as older ones as well. I have walked, cared, fed, and bathed pets before so I do not mind. Seeing a dog always brighten ups my day! I am currently a student-athlete at college so my schedule can be a little weird sometimes. I’m free in the early mornings, around lunch time, and later in the evening! On the weekends I am free all day. I will always take them on a walk, however long that may be. I will care and give them love, as well as feed and play with them!
About: Since I was a child, people would bring strays or unbalanced animals to our house who would suddenly be calm and comfortable in my care. I spent a lot of time in nature and wild animals would often follow me home. I now have my Masters of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis and wrote an original thesis on clicker training for service dogs. I am on the Board and a trainer for Hero Puppies for Life where we train service dogs for heroes with PTSD. We use positive reinforcement and are focused around relational bond training. This sets the dogs up for success to support their humans. We also teach their humans how to understand their dog's instincts and communication. I am quite passionate about it. :) Leo is my 7 year old black lab and personal service dog so your fur family will have free socialization and canine therapy in addition to my human care. He has worked with me extensively as a focal point in my approach to providing applied behavior analysis therapy to children and dogs. I trust our working relationship more than anyone on two legs. ;) Please feel free to ask me any questions about this dynamic! I am currently a full time student in an online, fully remote, tech program so I am very flexible when it comes to location, time of day, and duration for care. From the time I was in college, I always loved pet and house sitting. Opportunities for a change of scenery, in a fresh space, and caring for fur friends is always a treat. The care completely depends on the needs of the animals and home. I have administered meds, cared for young and old pets, implemented training, embraced snuggles, and fulfilled food orders that make meals look like a sundae.
About: Hello! My name is Haley and I have been using the rover app for my dog, Bowen, for many years! I am a travel nurse and this app has helped me tremendously! I am taking time off of work right now and I would love to help make sure your pets are taken care of and receive all of the walks they desire :) My mother is an animal control officer, so I grew up with many different animals of all shapes and sizes! Many friends and family members rely on my family and I to help out with their animals when they are away. Besides feeding and checking in, I also love taking dogs on walks, as I don’t like to sit still for too long myself! I’m currently taking time off of work, so I’m available at really any time of the day! Just let me know what works best for you! I would love to know before hand if your dog/cat has any specific do’s & don’ts. That way I can try my best to make sure they stay happy :)

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Mifflin
We couldn’t be happier with the care Jenna provided for our kitties while we were away. She did wonderful tending to the unique needs of our kitties and took the time to interact with them during the visits. Jenna is adaptive with learning their quirks and provided detailed updates along with photos after each visit. We’re very fortunate to have found Jenna as a rover and trust her completely with the care of our kitties. We will definitely be using her services in the future. We highly recommend her.
Erin was highly communicative and dependable. She took great care of our two large, high-energy dogs while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions in advance to make sure she a thorough understanding of the dogs and what they needed. We would happily work with Erin again!
Jessica is a friend you didn't know you had! She made everything smooth and easy. She cated for my cats as if they were her own. Not even the winter storm of the decade kept her away. And she even cleared a path to my house so when I got home after my trip, I wasnt snowed out. She took great pictures and amazing updates. always quick to respond, a very caring person. Hands down best sitter I've had. I couldn't thank her enough. Took away all the stress I would of had during my trip.
Kelly is awesome and very attentive to our critters. She communicated well when our one kitty had some issues with her pajamas (over grooming) and needed changing from soiling due to litter use and put her in her cone. She noticed our fish tank and the frogs had passed (from change of environment and water before we left, not her fault). She spent good social time with the kitties and was very nice to work with. I will hire her again! Thank you Kelly!
Kristi did a fabulous job caring for my cats over the holiday. As always, she is great at confirming her availability and scheduling visits. When I forgot something, Kristi called to clarify instructions which I super appreciate!! Thanks Kristi! My cats enjoy Kristi’s visits, they can sometimes be sassy when I’m not around but Kristi has great cat intelligence, takes photos and I always return to happy yet clingy kitties.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Mifflin is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,572 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Mifflin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Mifflin. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
