“I cannot recommend Gary enough to anyone new to Rover or the local area. Gary was an excellent communicator, eager to help out, and took amazing care of my two cats. He sent pictures and updates every time he visited and I had full confidence that my cats were getting the care and love they needed while I was away. If I could give 6 stars I would!”
“Clareese was absolutely amazing with my two boys! One of them likes to get into trouble and when I saw that they had knocked over the trash can she even went over a day early to clean it up! I’m so happy that my boys had someone so loving taking care of them!”
“While our family was away Sarah took excellent care of our dogs. It was a comfort knowing that our dogs were in good hands. Thank you for taking such good care of them.”
“Markie was so sweet to our kitties ~ they did remarkably well, even though they hide. She talked to them and took really good care of their necessities (clean water and bowls, their food, and cleaning their litter boxes, and vacuuming their litter)! She’s great!”
About: I have a house with a fenced yard. I like to walk my dogs and will take yours along if desired. My dogs play well with all nice dogs. The longest time between being let outside is 6 hours. If requested, I can take your dog with me almost everywhere I go. I can also come to your house to dog sit depending on location. We can stay in constant touch by phone and/or e-mail. Meet my pets I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. Open the door to let them out, fill up food and water bowls. Give them treats. Clean up pet hair. Give dogs apoquil when allergies/rash appear. I have a decent sized fenced yard, so they will be free to run around. I am vigilant about scooping poop as soon as possible.
“Andy is seriously the BEST pet sitter. I’ve been searching for a reliable, kind, and responsible pet sitter for my dog for a while, and Andy is officially my go-to!! His communication is incredible - leading up to the date of service Andy was always so responsive (rapidly!) and engaged. He seriously showed he cared about the animals from the start. During the pet care taking he offered incredible summaries, videos, and pictures. I never doubted that my sweet pup and my boyfriend’s cat were in the best hands. Andy, thank you so much. We can’t wait to keep using you as our pet sitter from here on out! If you’re looking for an amazing pet sitter to care for your animals, seriously look no further.”
“Olivia came for drop-ins for my two cats twice a day while I was on vacation for about a week and she did a fantastic job! One of my cats needed insulin shots and she proactively came over a few times before the booked time to practice administering the injection to make sure she did it correctly and was comfortable with doing it, which I really appreciated. My other cat also needed a pill and she made sure he took it during every drop-in. She is very communicative and reached out with questions and updates as needed, but for the most part, I was hands-off and knew my cats were in good hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I will definitely be reaching out to Olivia for any future kitty care needs!”
About: I have experience with puppies, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs 60+ lbs, as well as small dogs. Can handle larger dogs that pull and are reactive on walks. I currently have two big dogs of my own so my day to day always involves dog care. I have a reactive dog so I am familiar with that behavior. Making sure the dog is comfortable is always my goal. Especially since I am an unfamiliar person, I want to make sure our interactions don’t stress the dogs out and they don’t feel threatened by me in their space.
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.
“Krista is a wonderful pet sitter! She went over & above in her care and attention to my kitty, and gave me regular updates for which I was very grateful. I highly recommend Krista;your pet will in good hands!”
“Have met and used Emily several times with great results. Happy to answer all the good questions she asks and never thought to ask ourselves. Very nice young lady, clearly enjoys spending time with our fur babies and understands their needs. Would highly recommend.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were very pleased with Melissa. We have 2 large 100 lb. Dogs and they seemed quite happy. We will definitely book with Melissa again.”
About: I currently work at hounds town brentwood, I've been there for over a year now and i love all the dogs like they are my own :) im currently working part time - so i have lots of time to play and take care of your pups or cats! i have a pretty flexible schedule. ill be able to take your pups on walks, lots of play time and make sure they have water and bathroom breaks as well following up with feeding time. your pup will always be safe and supervised!
About: I have owned my own dog for the past 15 years. Experienced with difficult eaters, medication needs, walking, playing etc. Experienced with dogs who don’t like other dogs. Currently at home most of the day most days. Will spend a lot of quality time with your pet. I’ll cater to how your pet wants to spend their time: cuddling, playing, walks, napping. I’ll provide whatever level of care and safety your pet is used to in your home and neighborhood. My goal is to make their time away from you as much like if you were there.
About: I have been around dogs and other animals since I was an infant. My family has consistently taken care of dogs for over 30 years. I especially love training and taking dogs on enrichment activities. Pet care is a daily responsibility that requires singular attention on the animal with no multitasking. Animals need more than just food and water; they require attention and enrichment daily. Animal safety means thinking ahead and preparing. Each animal has specific needs that will allow them to thrive when met. It is important that an animal have its own space such as a crate or perch, and that they are supervised when on walks or in a new environment.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Mifflin
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.
The 1st time I had to leave my cats, Pookie and Ziggy, with a Pet-Sitter. Sandy was PROFESSIONAL, PUNCTUAL, and stayed and played with my Furbabies. Sandy sent me pictures each day, which put my mind at ease. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Sandy!!! I will use her again!!!😻😻😻

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Mifflin is $19 per visit as of October 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 October 2026, there are 2,587 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 .
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.

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 .
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.
