Victoria took very good care of my two pups! She was extremely communicative and sent me updates and pictures several times a day. I felt very comfortable going on vacation and leaving my dogs in her caring hands. She is very sweet and you can tell she loves all animals. My smaller dog who is shy even came out of his shell during his stay at Victoria's. Very happy!

We are so happy with our dog's care by Michael and his wife while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Our dog is a nervous dog so they paid close attention to her and she settled in nicely. They sent us updates every day with a photo. We will definitely use them again!

Adam gave us updates and sent great photos of our dog. It sounded like she also got to have a fun vacation, cruising around Adam's neighborhood and checking out the cool spots, while we were out of town! It certainly gave us peace of mind that our dog was enjoying herself and being well taken care of. Thanks, Adam!

Duke has been to “Ms. Kathy’s” (as we call her) a half a dozen or so times. When we ask if he wants to go, he tilts his head and gets so excited! We always get a bunch of pictures that my kids enjoy seeing. I like that there is often a playmate or 2 for our pup. As always, Duke will be returning soon! ⭐️

Richard is the best! We no longer feel guilty taking trips without our dog Boo knowing that he has the best time at Richard’s. Richard always sends daily pictures and is very communicative, so we never have to worry about our baby.

Matt did a wonderful job with my pup. Hercules has anxiety issues, and unfortunately had some tummy troubles, but Matt took care of everything with love and compassion. I will definately book Matt in the future, he was wonderful!

Sebastian was absolutely perfect with my dog Chip. Chip is a old (12yo) chihuahua so he needs extra love and care and Sebastian and his wife did just that! He sent pictures every day and made everything easy for me. It was as if my dog was on vacation too! Highly recommend and will use Sebastian again 😊

Karen was AMAZING! This was my first time using this app or leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know and she made me feel sooo comfortable! She was soo understanding she even agreed to meet my dog before I decided to go through with leaving Sadie with her. She sent me daily pics of her walks and them just hanging out which really made me feel at ease leaving Sadie with her! Overall I would HIGHLY recommend Karen to my friends family or anyone else!

Matt is the best! Our dog absolutely loves Matt and his family. They have a beautiful home with a fenced in yard and it is such a wonderful feeling knowing that we can go out of town and our dog is in great hands. After our last dog sitter closed her business we were afraid we would never find a replacement, but Matt is truly excellent and we can not recommend him enough!

Sierra was most accommodating to my dog's anxiety levels and care needed. She was kind, patient and communicated well. She gave him some extra love by taking him to the dog park. We would hire her in the future.

Why book Rover dog boarding in Pittsburgh?

Pittsburgh pet parents want to make sure their dogs are well taken care of when they're away, and that's where Rover comes in. Dog sitters in Pittsburgh will treat your pups like part of their family, and offer them all the comforts of home, unlike a kennel. If you're looking for dog boarding in Pittsburgh, try a Rover sitter who'll care your pup in their own home, offering plenty of one-on-one attention.

Why do dog owners love Pittsburgh?

Residents of The 'Burgh are treated daily to a city full of history, entertaining professional sports leagues, and cultural institutions. Home to educational institutions like Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh - plus cultural attractions including the Andy Warhol Museum - it's often ranked one of the country's most livable cities. So it's easy to see why dog owners love living in Pittsburgh. Plus, there are tons of dog-friendly green spaces and friendly Rover dog sitters and walkers throughout the city.

Which parks in Pittsburgh are good for dog walks?

Referred to as OLEAs, Pittsburgh has many Off-Leash Exercise Areas your dog to enjoy. Take Frick Park dog park on Squirrel Hill - it's a massive 644 acres for you and your dog to explore. There are separate fenced areas for running, lots of trails, and a swimming hole for dogs near Lower Tranquil Trail. Though not quite as large, Riverview Dog Park at Perry North is still a huge park to visit at 259 acres total, with two acres fenced off just for off-leash fun near the Allegheny Observatory. At Bernard Dog Run in Lawrenceville, you'll find a bustling half-acre park under the 40th Street Bridge. There are separate play areas for large and small dogs to keep pups safe and having fun with other dogs their own size. Dogs need to stay on leash at Point State Park, but that shouldn't stop you from spending a day walking its three main hiking trails. It's right downtown in the Golden Triangle, so you can't miss it!

What Pittsburgh neighborhoods are good for dog owners?

Pittsburgh has over 90 vibrant and unique neighborhoods, so deciding where to visit or even settle down can be a tough decision. From S&D Polish Deli to the Pennsylvania Macaroni Co., there are tons of interesting and eclectic shops and grocers in the Strip District, just east of downtown Pittsburgh. If you're looking for something a little more upscale, take your shopping over to the Shadyside area. You can get a dose of culture and intellectual discussion in Oakland, where you'll find the 53-story gothic building that houses the University of Pittsburgh's Cathedral of Learning. If you need a place to stay, check out the edgy, metroplication chic of the Ace Hotel or Indigo Hotel in the East Liberty neighborhood. Looking for a bite to eat? Head over to Pittsburgh's "Little Italy," Bloomfield. Take a bridge from downtown to discover North Shore and North Side, home to Heinz Field and PNC Park, and be sure to get a glimpse of the larger-than-life Mister Rogers' statue nearby. You can also take a nice stroll down the tree-lined streets of the charming Sewickley neighborhood, or catch an amazing view in Mt. Washington.
