Sara sent me updates frequently through out the day and made sure my baby girl was happy and loved and got to play all day!!! Would highly recommend!!!”

Melanie R.

“Where do I start! Christy has to be the best rover sitter, border, anything and everything dog in the area. She is so great with dogs and really made us feel better when we were away from our dog. She also understood when we needed her to watch him longer than planned. She is a saint and I am so excited to go to her again. She also sends you photos through out the day of your dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!”

Matt V.

“Abby was great! Goose is a crazy 9 month old puppy and she handled him with no issues. She communicated updates and pictures throughout the day and assured me he was being a good boy which was a big relief. Definitely will be using her again!”

Abigail N.

“Excellent dog sitter. My “puppy” loved his time with Rae. She also sent updates and pics of him from their walk, and time hanging out. I definitely hope to have my dog board or visit for day sitting again.”

“Amy was wonderful to our Charlie, she took great care of him & gave us peace of mind while attending a concert with many updates and pictures. Charlie loved her & we wouldn’t hesitate to book again with Amy while in Pittsburgh. Thanks very much Amy!!”

About: Hi, I’m Valerie — lifelong animal lover, proud pet mom, and your go-to sitter for stress-free, tail-wagging care! I’ve been caring for dogs of every size, breed, and personality since I was 10 years old. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and families have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s a playful puppy, an energetic walker, or a gentle senior needing extra attention, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and right at home. Animals bring me so much joy — and I always go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member receives the same love and attention they get from you. 🐶❤️ I also have extensive experience caring for pets with special needs. I’ve helped dogs recover comfortably post-surgery, maintained routines for a 14-year-old diabetic cat, and provided patient, gentle care for anxious or senior animals. When I worked as a Wag! walker eight years ago, I was quickly requested as a regular walker by repeat clients — a reflection of my dependability, calm energy, and genuine love for animals of all kinds. I currently run my own business, which gives me vast flexibility and availability to devote to your pets’ needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, a last-minute drop-in, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your schedule to ensure your furry friend is comfortable, cared for, and loved. I’m an avid hiker and live right next to Frick Park’s 9-Mile Trail, where I love taking dogs for long walks, fresh air, and a healthy dose of adventure (with your approval, of course!). For pups who prefer a quieter pace, I provide gentle strolls and cozy downtime at home. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly — I can easily crate your pup if needed and always follow care instructions closely. Comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I make sure every pet feels relaxed, happy, and right at home — whether they’re here for a walk, a weekend, or a longer stay. Your pets deserve someone who sees them the way you do — as family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry companion and give them the care, attention, and affection they deserve. Let’s set up a meet and greet — I can’t wait to welcome them into my world of tail wags, fresh air, and happy hearts. 🐾❤️ I run my own business, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding throughout the week — including weekends and most evenings. Whether you need consistent care, last-minute help, or an extended stay, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule to make sure your pet always feels cared for and loved. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment for every pet in my care. My home has plenty of space for your dog to relax or stretch their legs before and after walks. I live right next to Frick Park’s 9-Mile Trail, which is perfect for safe, scenic walks and outdoor adventures (always with your approval and comfort level in mind). I follow every care instruction closely — from feeding and medications to exercise routines — and I’m experienced in caring for pets with special needs, including post-surgery care and senior or diabetic animals. I prioritize safety and comfort above all else, ensuring every pet in my care feels secure, happy, and right at home.

“Theresa helped me out kinda last minute and my dog had a great time! Theresa let Sierra hang out and do what she was comfortable with. If it was local to the area I’d definitely have her watch Sierra again!”

Maggie T.

“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”

Summer H.

“Mandie showed a great dedication on getting Ashes worked up with Izzy! They even did a mile walk and were constantly in her backyard, I would have her watch her again in a second!”

Dezerae G.

“Barrett really was amazing. We booked him last minute (less than 2 hours before we needed him) so we could take in a Pirates game while passing thru Pittsburgh, and he was quite gracious. Our Tucker is nearly 15 and a bit of a nervous Nellie. Barrett took it all in stride. I highly recommend Barrett”

Deborah H.

“Ellie was so great with my dog scout! She was able to accommodate a last minute request and was a very quick communicator. I’d definitely reach out again in the future!”

Katie L.

“Tia was a great puppy sitter for our Monty! She updated us throughout the day with videos. Monty was playful and happy. She took great care of our fur baby! Would definitely recommend her.”

Lea W.

“Mariah was amazing!! So friendly and accommodating for our last minute booking. We will definitely book again, our puppy came back happy and calm.”

Vanessa S.

“Hannah did a fantastic job caring for my dog Boo! Boo usually struggles with new environments, but the care and attention Hannah provided made all the difference. She was patient, understanding, and went above and beyond to ease my dog's anxiety. Highly recommend for anyone with a nervous dog!”

About: Hello I'm Diane:).. I'm interested in being a pet sitter because I love dogs and cats:)..They really bring joy into the home and people's lives. I live in an apartment with my daughter. I've had a cat before his name was timberland. I took very good care of him. But most importantly he made my daughter very happy and kept her company being as though she's an only child. We love dogs as well❤️. We plan to have our own soon one day. We love playful dogs, dogs that are very protective and the ones that just want their belly rubbed all day🤗. Your pet will be taken care of, safe and have a fun time while you’re away .. hope to meet you soon!🙂 I work part time.. I have time to take care of your pet during the week and certain weekend days. Id like to pet sit full time in the near future:) My daughter who is 18 now also helps me out. . I have a small yard. I will follow the owners Instructions. I live in an area with lots of space to walk and pretty big park to play and get some exercise.

“Joe was extremely accommodating for our 2 day visit to Pittsburgh! He took great care of our (2) pups and we will absolutely use him again when we are in the area.”
