“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.”


“Natalie took great care of our 2 pugs while we were on our honeymoon for 8 days! Pugs were super happy when we got home and the apartment was left very clean. Loved the daily updates and would definitely recommend!”

“Sampson had a great time with Allicia. Allicia kept us informed while we were gone and sent us a couple photos each day of Sampson. Would definitely recommend Allicia.”
“Heather was absolutely amazing! With a senior dog with some medical issues we had her come stay in our house while we were away. She followed all instructions and gave us a daily update of cuteness with a picture. All of the dogs meds were administered and he got a daily walk. I would absolutely recommend Heather to others.”

“Isabella stayed at my house for the week and was wonderful with my big pup. She was attentive and made sure to send me updates daily. Thank you so much for watching my fur baby!”

“My Lucky is very spoiled and Lindsey did a great job with him! From keeping him on his schedule to judging if he needed allergy meds, she was attentive to his needs. She kept me informed of what was happening and sent pics, which helped to put my mind at ease and made my trip more enjoyable, knowing I didn't have to worry about him. Lucky obviously trusted her and didn't hesitate to cuddle with her:) I also came home to an immaculate house, which was great after being away for 12 days. I will definitely be calling on Lindsey in the future!!”

“Abby was wonderful! Both of my dogs were exceptionally cared for. She kept me up-to-date while she was house sitting. She exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Abby for your pet sitting needs!”
“Samantha was very professional, detail oriented and a dog lover!! She house sat our Doberman and Lab/Collie mix. Samantha was very comfortable with administering medication, following feeding schedule and walking both. Samantha was getting dog kisses before we left and sent great pictures while we were gone!! We will definitely hire Samantha again!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗 Thank you Samantha!!!”

About: I had my own dog walking business in my neighborhood of Lawrenceville in Pittsburgh where I live, where I would walk the dogs around my neighborhood. In high school I volunteered at doggie daycare taking care of the dogs, cleaning up after the dogs, playing with the dogs, and cleaning anything that needed to be clean. Plus I have always had a dog in my life growing up so I am comfortable around them. I am reliable, responsible, dependable, always on time, hardworking and flexible. I love being around dogs and I will treat your pet like they are my own. I am also a fellow dog mom to a white Lab/Mix named Luna I currently work an early morning shift at a doggie daycare from 6-2 so I'm done by 2pm or sooner during the week and I'm off on weekends too I can easily crate your dog if needed or let them out in the backyard as well whatever they need and I can take them to their favorite places too
“This was our first time entrusting Patrick with our house and pups. We were quite confident in our decision when, during the meet and greet, Patrick inquired about our care routines in detail, which we hadn’t been asked before. Throughout our trip, Patrick kept us informed about our pups’ well-being by sending us pictures of their adventures. We appreciated receiving these updates as they allowed us to stay connected while we were away. We highly recommend Patrick for future dog-sitting needs and believe he would be a great fit for your requirements as well.”

“Had previously used Kaitlyn for a drop in for 3 little dogs who have pea sized bladders and require walks every 3 hours. They also don't always agree on routing which is to say they are not necessarily easy to walk. This time, she stayed at our home for 4 days. All went perfectly. Kaitlyn is meticulous about following directions give and is genuinely concerned about providing the same level of care that pups get from their owners. We give Kaitlyn 12 paws up and plan to use her often.”
About: I will love your dog as if they were my own and take care of them exactly as you would! I know how fickle and specific dogs can be and I will do my best to make your dog feel confident and comfortable while you are gone. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes in urban and suburban areas as well as experience with puppies and potty training. I work part time, so I have tons of time to shower your pets with love and attention and am very flexible for the needs of you and your pet. I will always leave a space better than I found it and will take good care of your pet and your home so that you can feel confident that your pet is having a good time while you are gone!
“She is amazing!!! She took care of our cat and dog and also was an amazing house guest, left everything clean and tidy and overall it was a wonderful experience. I will be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Shannon was amazing! She really went above and beyond! We realized we had forgotten to give her a key once we had already left and Shannon was super flexible and worked with us and a locksmith to get into our house. She also watered my garden during the heatwave. Loved getting all the updates, my cat definitely enjoyed her care and attention!”

If you’re looking for someone trustworthy to stay in your home and care for your pet, Kelly is amazing! She cared for our dog like she would her own and we returned to a clean house. Loved all the updates and photos she sent while we were away, definitely helped ease our minds that our boy was taken care of. Will definitely be booking with her again.

We had the absolute best experience with Kaylee as our dog and cat sitter! She took such amazing care of our pets and made being away from home completely stress-free. She sent us tons of pictures and regular updates, which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. It was clear from every update that our pets were happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention. On top of being wonderful with our pets, Kaylee was incredibly respectful of our home. We came back to the house cleaner and neater than we left it, which was such a pleasant surprise! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% book Kaylee again in a heartbeat! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, communicative, and responsible to watch their pets and home

Thomas was excellent and thorough in every capacity! He agreed to come stay with my 2 cats for 6 days/5 nights with short notice. During the meet and greet, he brought a tablet and took notes on all the info I told him. My cats seemed to love him (even my shy cat!) based on the daily updates he sent. When I got home I was pleasantly shocked by how clean my house was. Cannot recommend Thomas enough, I feel like I hit the Rover jackpot during this trip. It's always a little stressful leaving your pets (and house) in a stranger's hands for a week, but this could not have been a less stressful week. Thank you Thomas!

Autumn is amazing. My partner and I recently relocated to Pittsburgh with a trip previously planned for overseas. I was worried it would be difficult to find someone to watch our two kids (dogs) for two weeks, but Autumn was there for the rescue. She took amazing care of Butters our senior pup with limited mobility, as well as our younger pup Maeve. Autumn provided updates with photos to make sure that we were well informed while away. She also would reach out to clarify the laundry list of things they need, which I find comforting to know that she is going to make sure everything is going perfect. Our place was clean when we returned and everything looked just as we left it. I will be reaching out to Autumn in the future and recommend her to any parent.

Kiley house-sat my two dogs for three nights while I was out of state, and I couldn’t have been happier with her care! She was extremely responsive, sent frequent updates and pictures, and made sure I knew how the dogs were doing throughout my trip. She handled walking both dogs, including my reactive dog, which I really appreciated. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while I was away. I would highly recommend Kiley for house sitting or dog sitting!

Simply put Heather is the BEST! Despite having some last minute issues with our dogs - Heather sprint into action and was able to accommodate our dogs’ needs. We were able to enjoy a stress free vacation bc of Heather. Heather sent daily updates with pictures, which just goes to show how she truly cared for our four pups as if they’re her own. So so thankful. We’d recommend Heather over and over again and know when she’s sitting they’re in very good hands.

This was my first time using Rover. What a positive experience! We hired Milica to stay in our house and take care of Ralph while we were on vacation. Milica was absolutely great with Ralph! True to her word, she sent us photos and updates of Ralph every day. She walked him twice a day (even thought she didn't have to) and kept him on his feeding schedule. When we got home the house was in great shape and Ralph was as happy as can be! I really don't think he wanted her to leave. We don't travel much but if we need someone to watch Ralph again, his "girlfriend" Milica will be the one. High praise for Milica!

Samantha helped us with our furballs in a pinch and took excellent care of our 2 cats and 1 dog. Our dog is newer to the family so we don’t have all the answers to some of his quirks yet but she took it in stride. She sent lots of great updates and pictures that made me feel much better about our situation. She also took great care of the house and went above and beyond with some of the extra touches. We will definitely be booking with Samantha again if we can!
