About: I’ve cared for animals for years, including my own pets and those of friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I understand how important routine and consistency are, and I always aim to provide dependable, attentive care. I’m available for the weekends and some week nights! I’m available for boarding and walks to make sure your dog is very comfortable! I live in a clean, spacious apartment with easy access to outdoor areas for walks and bathroom breaks. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I prioritize regular walks and supervised outdoor time to keep pets active and comfortable. I maintain a calm, safe environment and always follow each pet’s routine and any specific instructions closely!
“Valerie has been wonderful to work with! I feel so comfortable leaving Finn with her, and he seems to welcome her company. She’s also very responsive and gives detailed summaries. I definitely recommend her!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 16 and have years of hands-on experience with pets of all ages and personalities. I have a 1-year-old cat of my own, help care for my boyfriend’s two pitbulls, and my family has two shih tzus, so I’m very comfortable with both small and large breeds. I also regularly pet sit for neighborhood furry friends, and even while attending boarding school in Boston, I cared for local pets there as well. I am committed to your furry family members’ happiness, comfort, and well-being. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs, whether they’re an energetic puppy or a senior pet who needs extra patience and attention. My genuine love for animals and strong attention to detail show in everything I do—from keeping routines consistent to sending regular updates and photos—so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a recent graduate currently working part-time (4-6 hour shifts) while studying for my personal training certification, so I have a flexible schedule with lots of free time. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I can consistently handle feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning tasks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I take care of feeding, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, and playtime based on the owner’s instructions. I also keep the home clean and provide updates so clients know their pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I bring a calm, attentive approach to every pet and tailor my care to their individual needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work 3 12 hour shifts a week so I’m very flexible schedule wise especially during the week. My schedule is all over the place but I’m willing to work with anyone’s schedule to make it work I prioritize safety, routine, and a calm environment wherever I’m caring for pets. I respect all routines and instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I’m attentive to behavior, secure doors/leashes carefully, and provide regular updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy.
“Jordan has been wonderful to work with! I feel so comfortable leaving Finn with her, and he seems to welcome her company. She’s also very responsive and gives detailed summaries. I definitely recommend her!!”


About: Hi, I'm Angela! I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by dogs, and I truly believe a home isn’t complete without the sound of four paws on the floor. I recently said goodbye to my beloved Pit Bull, Bia. She was my world, and I want to treat your pup with the same devotion, patience, and affection that I gave to her. My fiancée, Lauren, and I have her two dogs 2 weeks out of the month and they are great with other dogs and love to make friends! I work from home during the day and am a dance teacher in the evening. Between the two of us we have flexibility most of the day for house visits, walks, boarding, and daycare! I work from home during the day and my fiancée is home in the evening so we have a flexible schedule to give your furkid lots of love and attention! I have a large backyard on a quiet residential street and 2 sweet dogs part time who love to make friends! I have the ability to crate dogs of all size in my home and will not accept dogs from multiple families at one time so your baby will be spoiled!
“Ashley was so thoughtful in making sure we all--Clark included!--felt comfortable with her from the get-go, which I hugely appreciated. She was professional and kind, and when they went on a walk together, Clark came home happy and tired. I couldn't be more thrilled to have found Ashley!”

“Wallis was very considerate to come and meet Murphy before our scheduled walk and visit. She was very dependable and came right on time to take Murphy out. I would definitely have her again”

“Denyal sent me updates and was very patient with my dogs. This was our first time using a dog-walking service and one of my dogs was a bit nervous to meet someone new, but Denyal got him to warm up to her and have fun on his walk! Highly recommend!”

About: I provide personalized care for every pet experienced with puppy training routines and gentle senior care, including medications and extra attention. As well as my overall love for animals. Between my two dogs, part-time gym work, and online training clients, I live an active, structured lifestyle that fits perfectly with flexible and reliable pet care. I’m based in Pittsburgh with access to great dog parks and walking trails, so your dog will get plenty of fresh air, playtime, and attention while they’re with me
“Just had our first walk with Connor last night and it went great! My dog came back happy and relaxed. You can tell Connor is a natural with dogs-kind, attentive, and reliable. Looking forward to more walks!”

About: I brought our two cats, Chili and Lok-Lok, all the way from China, but I grew up with dogs in my family and love both. I’ve taken care of my family’s and friends’ dogs and I heard about this app so I thought it might be fun to give it a try. Whenever I get called on to dog-sit for my friend here in Pittsburgh I like to go to the dog parks near the South Side river or jog along with them, rain or snow, and socialize with other dogs. Looking forward to meeting yours! I’m a PhD student at the University of Pittsburgh so summer and winter breaks are relatively free, and usually I’m only “working” 2-3 half days per week. I have to do a lot of reading and thinking so getting out of the house is a good way to take a break and process. I have a fenced yard where I do some gardening and let our cats out every day to chase bugs and birds. My friends have stayed over with their dogs and I just move the cats to the second floor and keep them there while the dogs take the first and the yard.
About: My love for dogs is unmatched! I have not done any professional dog sitting before, but I have grown up with two dogs, both of whom I’ve trained. I’m a junior in college who absolutely adores dogs and also happens to want to make money for tuition😂 For the summer : Mon-Thurs: any time up until 3:30pm or after 7pm Fri, Sat, Sun : free all day I am super flexible! During the summer I have a very open schedule - so we can work around it more. Once I start school again I’ll update my availability! I will treat your animals with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Everything I do, I put 110% into, and I’ll make sure your pups feel loved! I always make sure to check if there’s ever notes from the client, get the important things done (like meds, food, necessary walks/bathroom) and then be able to focus on playtime or whatever your pup wants!

About: I have years of experience with pet care, including senior dog care. I’ve cared for puppies, small dogs, large dogs, blind dogs, and incontinent dogs. I have only cared for two cats so far, but I adore them and the different challenges they present from dogs. I also have experience doing drop in visits and feedings for guinea pigs. I currently work part time in the evenings, so my day is wide open to take care of your pets. Weekdays and weekends I am available between 7am and 4pm, and occasionally I will have evenings available. I provide drop-in visits at your home, and follow every rule and guideline set for the pet according to each families needs. I am also an experienced babysitter with cooking and cleaning skills, and have no trouble maintaining a pristine home environment for you and your animals.

Michaela is very professional and great at communicating. She was in touch promptly and very accommodating. She took such good care of Crispy. She’s willing to do extra long walks which my puppy needs. She’s a natural with dogs as well and very gentle and affectionate. Crispy and I can’t wait to book her again!

Jordan has been FABULOUS!! She walks our amazing goldendoodle 3 times a week, and our pup couldn’t love it more if she tried. Jordan is incredibly kind and loving to our doodle, and we are so thankful to have found her. We love her kind and detailed updates after each visit, and love when she shares cute pictures taken throughout their walks! She is incredibly dedicated too - even walking our pup in this crazy winter weather we’re having! Highly recommend Jordan to anyone and everyone - she’s the best of the best!

Anna is wonderful! She’s easy to communicate with and my elderly dog pepper feels at ease with her. It was easy to talk with her about peppers various needs and she did not hesitate to ask clarifying questions and make sure she was prepared. Would highly recommend! Thank you!
