Best to do pull ups on your regular workout days. That rest day recovery time is when your muscles repair and actually grow.

I do them on my workout days too, but I want to do them more often in order to reach my goal of 20 pull ups in one set (I only intend to do 2-3 sets on my rest days.). It seems like I'm getting nowhere right now with my pull ups, which feels pretty frustrating. :/

No, it's not good to do pull ups on rest days. Because you need daily cardiovascular, it's good to take a walk or maybe ride a bike on rest days, but that's about the limit.

I tried to do a pull up once.

It didn't work out.

Same. I have a lot of trouble with the up part. Down is never an issue.
