About: Hi! We're Nikki and Stefano. We've both had dogs in our homes as long as we can remember and won't ever have it any other way. We've had dogs ranging from toy chihuahuas to heelers to our current pups, a Great Pyreneese/lab and an Australian Shephard/Red Heeler. So any dog size or breed is fine with us. We love spending time with animals and we would love to get a chance to meet new dog friends and give them the same love and attention we give to our own pups while also meeting and learning more about each different breed and their personalities. My wife works from home and i work in the office 3 days out of the week, so we are 100% flexible with our days to watch, walk, or play with your pups. I work in the office Tuesdays through Thursdays. My wife works from home and is available to watch and play with the pups all day. We have a good sized fenced back yard that our two dogs love to run around in so your dogs will have plenty of time to hang out and play outside or relax and take naps inside.

About: I have lived with dogs since I was born, and have experience walking and taking care of mutts, pit mixes, German Shepard, and labs. I live a short walk from schenley park, and can go on runs with your dog if they want some extra exercise. I work from home Monday and Friday, and have the flexibility to go out for multiple potty breaks and walk during that time. I am generally very free on the weekends as well. I have a large front yard, and have no other pets in my house. I have room for a crate if you have one (do not own one), and a decent sized living space.
“Natalie made me feel like I could easily leave town & enjoy myself knowing Ozzy was being well cared for! Not only does she have a great vibe that I picked up on, but Ozzy did as well. She walked him, played with him, & fed him while I was away. I would 100% recommend her services!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 9 years old and can’t imagine life without them. From volunteering at shelters to pet sitting, walking, and fostering, animals have always been a huge part of my world. Now at 28, I bring over 19 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments including seniors and pets who need special care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and house sitting. I’m comfortable administering medications including injections, and I’ve supported pets recovering from illness or surgery. I’ve also helped with basic training and behavior support. As a licensed social worker, I bring an extra level of responsibility, trustworthiness, and calm presence to the pets and families I work with. My schedule is flexible thanks to my part-time work and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s unique needs and routine. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I’d love to be your go-to pet care person. I treat every animal like family because they are. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I take time to get to know each animal’s personality and needs so I can provide personalized care that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I make sure your pet stays on their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I keep their environment clean, cozy, and calm, and I always respect your space and preferences. I provide lots of love, attention, and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Ashley was a dog whisperer! She walked my recently adopted adult dog with a traumatic past. Ashley never imposed on my dog’s space and spent time each day making my dog feel safe. By day 3, my dog was greeting her at door and happily walking with confidence. I am so grateful for Ashley and her kind and patient energy. I highly recommend you book her services if you want peace of mind that your dog is being treated with respect by a mindful person.”

“Diana is one of my sweetest friends. She is responsible, hardworking and loves pets! She has foster failed her own dog, Neko, a beautiful husky and I have no doubt she will do well in taking care of other dogs as well. Frequently, when my family and I go on a trip and we are unable to bring our dog, she takes care of our dog, Ellie. She gives me updates and I think that Ellie goes on more walks with Diana than with us. She is so happy and healthy when she returns to us. I highly recommend Diana!”
