About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a lifelong animal lover based in the Pittsburgh area. I understand that pets are family, and when you leave them with someone else you want the same care, attention, and safety you’d give them yourself. I spent 13 years with my sweet mini poodle mix Theo, who taught me how much love and personality can live in one small dog. Because of him, I’m especially attentive to each pet’s unique quirks, routines, and comfort needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, couch snuggles, or a consistent routine, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most at home. I’m dependable, communicative, and I’ll send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet will be treated with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own. I currently work from home and have complete flexibility with my job to ensure your pet gets as much attention, walks, and love throughout the day as they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely, provide a calm environment, and ensure they are always supervised, secure, and well cared for. I will always send you updates and let you know what we are up to on our days together.

“Great peace of mind leaving my two dogs with Samantha when a family emergency mandated I leave town suddenly. She was quick to respond and and very flexible with pick-up days/times, which I really appreciated. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and calm from all the playtime they got in Samantha's large, shady backyard. Will definitely book again with Samantha in the future!”

“I can't say enough amazing things about Maryann! We didn't know if we could go on a family vacation this year because our dog Oscar is 17 and needs extra care. She was amazing with him! Taking care of his medical needs and giving him so much love and extra attention. We are so grateful to have found Maryann and highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Adrienne took great care of Roxanne. Phoebe (Adrienne's pup) was a great friend to Roxanne. Adrienne was attentive and responsive and sent us lots of photo updates!”

“Raeann was the best, although his stay was only for a day, our pup loves Raeann! She is so full of love and joy and our pup sensed that from our meet & greet and during his stay! Raeann is so very welcoming and warm-hearted, a perfect fit for our sweet cuddler pup!! Thanks Raeann!! ❤️”

“Super communicative and sent lots of photos and videos! Our dog had such a good time at Tia’s place playing in her backyard and getting lots of snuggles. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Breanna went above and beyond when watching our pup! She easily made him feel at home and provided us with many updates throughout his stay. So grateful for her dog whispering!”

“I recently had the pleasure of having Sabrina board my dog, Masala, for a four day trip. From start to finish, she was exceptionally attentive and caring. Sabrina went above and beyond to ensure Masala was comfortable and happy, sending us multiple updates each day with photos and videos. Her communication and genuine love for animals gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Sabrina to anyone in the Pittsburgh area looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional dog sitter!”


“Victoria was great with my little Yorkie! She sent pics and videos twice a day and administered her meds perfectly. My dog was super comfortable with her!”

“Amy was amazing!! She sent pictures of my dog frequently and provided a lot of updates. She took such great care of my dog. She is reliable, prompt, and attentive! She made sure my dog got lots of walks and did fun activities. I will be using her again in the future!!”

“AJ was fantastic! Incredibly responsive both when inquiring about the booking as well as when Mr. Puggles was in his care. He did great with the special attention my older dog needs and was a pleasure to have watch him. I would highly recommend AJ and I will absolutely rebook him when the time comes next.”

“Nelia and Brett took great care of my dog Abbey Raye while I was out of town. They provided me with daily pictures and she looked so happy! This is my second time leaving her with them and I highly recommend!”

“Very pleased with our experience with Mike and his daughter. They loved our dog like their own. Kept him active and well cared for. Mike was very accommodating and easy to work with as well. 100% reccomend and will be rebooking.”

“Richard was amazing with our dog! He kept us updated with pictures. We had a great peace of mind knowing Winnie was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Richard!”

“Valerie is awesome with our little pup Whiskey. Val is always sharing photos and videos of our lil guys day. We feel so trusted in leaving our pup in the hands of Val as we know he’s in great hands and will get the attention he gets when he’s with us. Love having Whiskey taken care of by Val when mom and dad have to be away.”

“Alexis and Kevin are wonderful!! They are so kind, flexible, and understanding. Olly absolutely loves spending time with Icy, Boi, and Bean! Alexis sends lots of pictures when we are away on vacation. Olly is looking forward to the next time he gets to stay with them! Thanks Alexis& Kevin :-)”
“My cat is anxious and shy and Audrey did a great job keeping her comfortable. She was very responsive and I received regular updates. My cat didn’t want to leave her at the end haha. Would recommend her to anyone. Thanks for everything! 🩷”

“Denise was a great sitter for our pup! She was very flexible with scheduling and provided regular updates throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!”

Arlington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kept us incredibly updated, looked like the dogs were taken care of and had a grate stay with her and her dogs. Lots of place for them to play. Took care of our puppy incredibly well and even sent him home with some teething rings for him to chew. Would highly recommend to anyone I knew with dogs. Thank you Denyal!

Remington and I LOVE Ashley. She was extremely kind, loving and went above and beyond for my sweet gentle giant. She sent lots of updates with pictures and made me feel so comfortable with leaving Remington with her. Grateful to have found you we can’t wait to book with you again! 😊

Raeann's care for our pup was wonderful! He found a home-away-from-home in her space, and enjoyed his typical schedule and routine with bonus trips and outings with Raeann. He received SO much love from her and her family, and she provided our family with daily updates and photos so we could see our sweet boy while we were away. We will definitely be using Raeann again!

Tia and her daughter Lea’s dog sitting service for our toy poodle during a last minute vacation was truly amazing! We immediately felt like our dog would be cared for. We are grateful that our dog could enjoy her time at this Rover with a fenced in yard and a clean home by sitters who clearly care for their pups. . The multiple daily updates that were sent eased our separation anxiety and I highly recommend Tia! We will definitely be using her as a Dogsitter again in the future.

Mikaela was great! She took in our pup at the last minute due to a family emergency and was so flexible, kind and communicative. She took the time to look over my dog’s profile and had follow up questions for me at drop off. I really appreciated that attention to detail and I can tell my dog was very well cared for!

Denise is amazing! My pup was so happy and loved. Her and her husband took great care of my dog and kept me up to date on him throughout everyday with plenty of videos and pictures. Best part is he came home exhausted which is always a great sign that he had so much fun. We will be booking again!
