Keilah is a great pet sitter! I have an extremely shy and anxious cat and somehow she got him to come out and play a little and even got a photo of him giving her a kiss! I was shocked! I recommend her for any pet needs and will absolutely be going back to her.

About: I absolutely love spending time with furry friends! I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and even some shy rescues. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, playing fetch at the park, and giving all the belly rubs they deserve. I’m responsible, punctual, and make sure each pet gets personalized attention and affection while you’re away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible class schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets throughout the week. I usually have mornings and evenings free, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Taking care of animals is a great way for me to relax and recharge between classes—it honestly makes my day better! I make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live just a short walk away from a beautiful dog park where pets can get plenty of safe, supervised outdoor time. I always keep dogs on a leash during walks and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. At home, I have two super friendly resident pets who love meeting new friends and are great at helping other pets feel relaxed and welcome. I keep my space clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with lots of cozy spots for rest and play. Your furry friend will be treated just like family here! 🐶💛

Our cat Robert has had very unpredictable behavior with new people since we moved to the area. Lia has been great about letting him take the lead and responding to his varying comfort level with her. She always communicates with us if she has questions or concerns, and with updates for each visit. Our other cat Jack has warmed up to her, and we think it's a matter of time with Robert.

About: My family has had pets since before I was born! I’ve helped care for critters from cats, dogs, rodents, fish, and even reptiles (all of varying ages and needs) for most of my life. They truly are our family, so I take very seriously the needs and comfort of your pets. Respect, Kindness, and Reliability are what I’m all about! I work in a Retail setting, so the shifts vary. But I am confident we’ll be able to configure a satisfactory schedule for the care of your pets! I offer my care in your home! I am absolutely willing to stay over, if the particular case warrants it. I will make your babies feel as comfortable as possible during your time away!

About: I love animals, and I've had pets since I was a little kid. I love both cats and dogs. I had a chocolate lab for most of my childhood. Then, when I graduated college, I got a cat named Winston. He was my best friend until he died when he was 13. Now that I'm settled with a son and a partner, I have a mini Australian Shepherd puppy named Nugget. I have lots of love to give your pets, but I also prioritize safety and communication. I want you to feel at ease when you're away from your pets and know that they are in good hands with me. I will follow your instructions to a t and make sure that your pet gets so much love and attention. I have experience in caring for cats, but I also have experience dogwalking, housesitting, and dogsitting. I can't wait to meet your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home several days each week, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend more time with the pets in my care. Because of my schedule, I can often accommodate visits throughout the day and provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and care. Outside of work, spending time with animals is genuinely one of my favorite things to do. I love using my free time and weekends to care for pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, providing cuddles, or simply keeping them company and helping them feel comfortable while their owners are away. Caring for animals never feels like a chore to me. It's something I truly enjoy and look forward to. When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to maintain their normal routine and help them feel as safe and comfortable as possible while their family is away. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am happy to accommodate any reasonable requests regarding feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, medications, sleeping arrangements, or other aspects of their care. I treat every client's home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own. I am conscientious, trustworthy, and committed to leaving your home just as I found it. Most importantly, I strive to provide pets with companionship, patience, and attentive care so they can feel secure, relaxed, and loved in their familiar environment.

About: I have been an animal lover ever since I was little. I have had hamsters, fish, cats, and a dog that I helped to walk. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and have a passion for all animals. I currently work full-time but I would be able to drop-in before I start my full-time job and after I start my full-time job. I also would have more availability to drop in more times on a weekend. I currently have a cat at home that I take care of every day. I clean the litter box, fill his water, and feed him. I even have had to give him medication recently when he had to get some teeth removed.

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 have taken care of my friends dogs for multiple nights in a row while her and her family were on vacation. Done this multiple times. I am part time. I am home from school in the summer so I can only provide some of these services right now. But I usually don’t have to work until 4pm. I have 6 cats and they are all pretty chill. Just the usual feeding and cleaning the litter box. I also love to cuddle so they are definitely loved.

About: I have worked in homes with dogs all throughout my life. I spent a year as a caregiver with a family that were actively training dogs from sizes 3 pounds to 125 pounds. I rescued my German Shepherd when he was 6 months old and dedicated the time to train him. He is amazing with other dogs and was a big help in training a previous roommate's dog. Your pet will be well taken care of, entertained and exercised in the house and fenced in yard. I will follow any training regimes you have set for your pet. I have 2 roommates that also adore pets, so there will always be someone around to love up on them! I work part time away from the house and my roommates work different schedules, so there is always someone home to feed, water, exercise and give potty breaks. I can crate if needed. Or separate if that is ever a problem. The fenced in back yard gives peace of mind for security and exercise.

About: I just like being around puppies. Especially the smaller ones. I don't have any special skills and definitely not a professional. But I'm a responsible person and so you can trust me with your puppy. No cats though. I work one one week and one week off. On my off weeks I don't really do anything (yet). Filling the void. Free throughout the day during off weeks and not a single second during work week. I can walk your puppy, feed your puppy, ensure that it has company, play around with it, watch for signs of the puppy needing additional care.

Savannah gave me so much peace of mind when I was traveling for a few days and she watched my 2 cats. She came by prior to my trip so I could show her around and what needed to be done, and the cats took to her right away. Getting pictures and a little update every day was such a nice touch too. Would definitely recommend her!

About: I have always had animals and pets around me and never hesitated to take care of others pets when needed. I grew up with three labradors, a cat, and a bird. I currently have my own cat with my partner and hope to someday get a medium/large dog! I am currently working full-time remote. I can be flexible on the location I work from depending on my work load on any given day. I can be more flexible after 5pm for some activities. Usually, my Sundays are busy but occasionally I can be flexible. I cannot currently offer service in my own home. However, I will treat your home with the utmost respect to you and your pets environment as though it were my own.

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!

Amazing service and (p)updates from Ashley. She handled my two husky-mixes like a pro and made sure to make me feel comfortable about her own safety protocols and expectations if anything had gone wrong (which luckily it didn't!). She even cleaned up the one accident that occurred and let me know about it. All around 10/10 will trust my pups to her again!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Wilmerding

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 2,563 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wilmerding. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Wilmerding stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Wilmerding choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Wilmerding with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wilmerding. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
