“We are so grateful to Mahle for checking in on our puppy in our home. He became unexpectedly ill prior to the scheduled drop in visits. Mahle kept us updated and took such good care of our Sherman! Thank you Mahle!”
“Christof was great! Showed up exactly on time, and Winnie just adores him! Was sure to give her fresh water and belly rubs after her walk.”

“Tessa is absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of our cat and treated him like her own pet. Our cat is skittish around new people and she was very patient with him. She is an excellent communicator, letting us know when she would check on our cat and updating us on how he was doing. Tessa is reliable, capable, and it is very clear she has a heart for animals, which we greatly appreciated. This was our first time using Rover, and we are pleased with the service she provided. You will be so lucky to have her watching your animal family members! Thank you again, Tessa!”

About: I have been involved in dog rescue for 10 years. I have dog walked and dog sat neighbors, family, and friends pets. I have Foster dogs for rescues in the Pittsburgh surrounding area. I also do in home dog grooming. ❗🐾 I am currently doing in home grooming so that leaves me available at home throughout the day Monday through Sunday which leaves me available to be Hands-On with the dog(s) I am caring for. I do have a fenced in yard but I also do like taking dogs for walks while I'm dog sitting. I do own a few dogs and a few cats. My dogs and cats are very well mannered and are dog friendly.
“Theresa was wonderful and attentive and communicative. It made me feel at ease to know that my cats were in good hands. She clearly loves animals and is knowledgeable about pet care. Highly recommend!”
About: Growing up with two dogs I have learned how to sufficiently care and love dogs, whether it is walking, feeding or even grooming I can do it all ! Im currently working part time, my schedule alternates which makes most available to provide pet care on my off-weeks.I work 3-11pm so morning walks work best for me. I have a quiet small home which is perfect for smaller dogs to stay out of trouble. There is a huge park at the end of my block which is perfect to meet and play with other dogs or just enjoy a nice walk.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little including my family dog as well as friends and neighbors dogs. I also take care of individuals with severe disabilities for a living and have helped care for therapy animals. I have a full time job but it is an extremely flexible schedule. I typically make my schedule the week before but things are able to change day by day if needed. I currently live in an apartment with my boyfriend but the apartment has a dog park that I am more than willing to take the dog to. I am also willing to take the dog to any of their favorite places or a nearby park.
“Judith was great! She was prompt, adaptable, and had the initiative to suggest changes when needed. She did a great job looking after our pets, we look forward to using her again in the future!”
“I'm very grateful to Dana for her kindness and patience with my two cats. She goes above and beyond to make sure that my home is in good condition, as well as taking great care of Fabio and Windi. My finicky cats highly recommend Dana!”
“Kelly did great!! We were regularly updated with pictures and messages about our dog. She stayed for a while for each visit so we didn’t have to worry about our dog missing us. We would definitely use her again!”
“Dez was amazing, responsible, clean and took care of my cats as if they were her own. She thoroughly scoop the litter boxes, cleaned up after them, and took some time to love on them. I highly recommend her for your pets!”
“Sarah took very good care of our cat Sammy. She came by beforehand to meet Sammy, and to be sure she understood his snack and meal routine. She sent me cute pictures and I could tell that he was in good spirits. Everything was clean when I got home and, while my cat certainly missed me, he was not at all stressed out like I was worried.”
About: I am a huge lover of dogs and always have been. I grew up with pets all my life and believe they make a difference in the home. Their presence alone adds so much joy and the companionship they provide is unmeasurable. I have a beautiful littler girl and we have time on the weekends to dog sit and give them a whole lot of love hugs and kisses. We have a handsome lab/boxer who loves other dogs and people. He plays well with everyone and anything! Especially kids!!! I work full time during the week - days Monday through Friday. Free on weekends as I don't work on weekends! If I do have to work on weekends, I will know in advance. I have crates if needed to separate my dog and your dog if need be for time out. I have closed in front porch and a dog runner in back yard!

Avalon dog parents share their Rover experiences
Faux B. Always does a Great Job taking care of Yinzer when I head out of town. Yinzer totally enjoys spending time with Faux B.
We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter! She watched our puppy multiple times in one week (even on short notice) and was always timely, responsive, and incredibly patient. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pup was in such good hands. We can’t wait to continue working with her!
Hannah is super helpful and communicative, very responsive when I have asked for help even if she is not available, she’s very sweet to my puppy as well.
Dezerae is amazing!!! Last minute situation she comes through Frank loves her. Excellent communication I would not hesitate to have her care for Frank and Kirby anytime we need help.
Nicole was awesome helping me with a new rescue dog very last minute! I look forward to using her again.
Ashley is amazing! She treated our 3 pets with such kindness and care, we felt so comfortable having her over to spend time with our dogs/cats! We will absolutely ask her to come back in the future. Thank you, Ashley!!!
Brenda has always been great with my dog. She was on time, followed the directions I outlined, and cute updates during her visit. Would recommend again!
Savannah was amazing. She was able to help me out super last minute on New Years Eve and again on New Year’s Day! She was very responsive, pleasant and I’m positive I’ve found a new dog sitter for my pup.
