About: I’ve had hands on experience with animals my whole life, I have experienced feeding, walking, grooming, exercise. Monitoring their health in a safe loving environment. Dog walking fits well into my schedule because I work part-time, which gives me flexibility to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend walks. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure I arrive on time and can give each dog the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. If I have any scheduling conflicts, I communicate with owners in advance. I understand that trust is essential when caring for someone’s pet and home. I treat every home with respect and follow care instructions exactly as provided. I make safety my top priority by keeping doors and gates secure, supervising pets, avoiding unsafe situations during dog walks and ensuring they always have fresh food, water and a clean environment.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over 6 years and have cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. From playful puppies to mellow seniors, I adapt to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who loves long walks or a cuddly couch companion, I’m experienced in creating a safe, loving environment that helps them feel right at home. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I work full-time during the week, but I’m completely free on weekends—perfect for giving your pet my full attention! Whether it’s boarding, drop-ins, or long walks, I make pet care my priority on weekends. I also have flexibility in the evenings during the week for check-ins or walks, depending on your needs. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’m always happy to spend my free time with furry friends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority—whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I follow any instructions you leave carefully and stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel secure and relaxed. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and free of anything that could pose a risk (like small objects, harmful foods, or open doors). I always keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime and provide regular updates so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be loved and well cared for, just like one of my own.

About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, having been born into a family with two dogs and two cats. For the past 15 years, I’ve been pet sitting on and off, even as a kid, when my friends were babysitting children, I always chose to pet sit! I truly believe every animal has their own unique personality, and I have never met a pet I didn't like. I even adopted my own animals while living abroad in Ghana, and while they can be a bit "evil" sometimes, I love them entirely! I know how to appreciate and care for pets with all kinds of quirks, boundaries, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs at all stages of life, from energetic kittens and puppies to seniors needing gentle care. Drawing on my background in medical school, I am highly comfortable and capable when it comes to safely administering animal medications. Most importantly, I will strictly adhere to your pet's schedule, diet, and daily routine to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I have reliable transportation and a huge heart! Can’t wait to meet your fury family! Pet sitting is my main focus, giving me full-time flexibility and open availability to dedicate entirely to your pets. Because I have an open schedule, I can seamlessly adapt to your pet's exact daily rhythm, whether they need early morning walks, strict mid-day medication times, frequent potty breaks, or simply quality companionship throughout the day. Your routine is my routine. Integrity, trust, and clear communication are the foundation of how I care for your home and pets. My top priority is giving you complete peace of mind while ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and deeply loved. I treat every home with utmost respect, leaving it spotless and exactly as found (or better, handling any senior pet accidents immediately and thoroughly). Experienced with walks, bathing, feeding, medication administration, potty breaks, and plenty of affection. I customize communication to your style, sending daily photo updates and detailed check-ins if you like to stay in the loop, or keeping it quiet and simply handling everything so you can fully disconnect.

About: I've been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Although I currently have a cat that I've cared for over the past four years, I've also grown up around dogs and understand the importance of providing them with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I'm currently pursuing my master's degree in social work at the University of Pittsburgh, and I bring the same compassion, responsibility, and attention to detail to pet care that I do in my studies. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know each pet and follow their owner's instructions closely, whether that means energetic walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking to a specific feeding schedule. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away, while giving you peace of mind through reliable communication and regular updates. My schedule is a bit more structured now that I’m balancing school and work, but I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works well for both of us! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays, including overnights when needed. My typical weekly schedule is: • Monday: Working 9 AM–8 PM • Tuesday: Available until 12:30 PM; in class from 1:00–8:20 PM • Wednesday: Working 3-8 PM • Thursday: Working 9 AM–8 PM • Friday: Working 9 AM–5 PM • Saturday: Typically working 11 AM–3 PM • Sunday: Completely open While my schedule is busy with school and work, I’m always happy to communicate ahead of time and see if our schedules line up. I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and companionship they need! At this time, I'm unable to board pets in my own home. However, I'm happy to provide care in your home, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always respect your space and carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, or house rules. My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

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 was raised around animals, including horses and a beagle kennel. Then, I had a sweet chihuahua for 13 years that I raised and trained from a puppy. I really do love all animals, and timid cats usually take a liking to me. I’m currently working part time, so pet care fits in to my daily schedule very well. I’m flexible with availability and commute, and read care instructions carefully. I have a two story house with a unfenced backyard that I can watch small to medium sized pets. When going to client’s home, I follow care instructions very closely and provide lots of love and attention for the fur babies.

About: I first started dog sitting when I was just 9 years old. It was the first job I ever had and it has continued to be a love of mine throughout my life. I come from a family that treats their pets like family and have plenty of love to offer your pet. My mom often dogsat when I was growing up, so I'm terrific with animals that aren't already familiar with me. I am also an active runner and have plenty of energy to keep up with even the most enthusiastic pet and would enjoy taking your beloved pet on lengthy runs and walks if to their liking. When it comes to reliability I have several years of customer service background and have a solid resume to back me up. I have a flexible full-time job. Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday I have the most availability. The rest of the week I am available only in the mornings before 9am and then again any time after 5pm. I can also do quick/flexible lunch break work as well around 12pm. I have my own car and am available to travel and take trips to surrounding parks or for long walks. I am also open to staying at a residence for the day Sun-Tues.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats in my home as a child, I also had a few other kinds of animals (my mother had a dream of having a homestead and fulfilled it! Haha) . Anywho I love all animals but dogs and kitties hold a special place in my heart. I understand schedules can get busy and the guilt of not being able to take our pets on consistent outings is deep, and sometimes a vacation is needed. Don't worry though, because I am here for all of your dog walking and pet sitting needs! :)) I am currently working and taking a gap year to save for college! My schedule is flexible and I more so would like to see what works best for you and see if that works for me, play it by request! I understand dogs need to go out for bathroom breaks consistently . I am a very active person so for dogs that have more pent up energy longer walks or more play time is no problem! My dogs always had dietary restrictions so I am very understanding of dietary problems in our four legged friends. (I will never feed them processed "people" food for the sake of their stomachs and wellbeing and your home and wallets!) I think if cats and dogs could rate my pets I would get 5 stars across the board...just saying 🤷🏿‍♀️

About: HUGE animal lover! Ever since I was a kid I have loved surrounding myself with animals/pets. I grew up having dogs and cats so they have a special place in my heart. I’m currently working two jobs: full-time at Wilson McGinley 5 days a week and part-time at a Hitchhiker Brewing. The full time requires me to be gone 2-8 hours (flexible with being an on premise sales rep) and the brewery is a 7 hour shift. I can always make time for pet care! When I am at someone’s home I can take the dog outside every 2-4 hours and can provide daily walks. If I am staying at someone’s place I usually tend to clean their home because I want to show a level of respect for anyone allowing me to stay at their home.

FAQs for Dog Walking - West Tarentum

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 2,386 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West Tarentum. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your West Tarentum. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in West Tarentum after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Tarentum. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers 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 walker.
