About: I am reliable, I don't mind cleaning up messes, and I just love dogs. They are a big part of what makes me happy in life. I always said if you don't like pets your just a miserable human being and I mean that whole heartedly.If you give me the opportunity to take care of you pet you won't regret it.

“Annette is very warm and kind. My older dog is usually a little slow to warm up these days but he took to her right away during our meet and greet. She dropped in as discussed, shared photos and even brought a package in the house for me! Thank you Annette! Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I’ve grown up around family pets and understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m available 24/7. I have 4 dogs at home and am willing to pet sit at any point of any day! I’m just getting started on rover and would love to get my name out there! I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both personal and professional settings. I previously worked for a local groomer as a dog bather, where I became comfortable handling dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition, I regularly care for my family’s dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, spending time with them, and pet sitting when family members are away. I also help care for pets for extended family members, including my aunts and uncles, who trust me with their dogs while they travel or need extra help. I truly enjoy being around animals and am looking forward to expanding my services to help more pet owners feel confident their dogs are safe, cared for, and treated like family.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up with cats and because we were never allowed to have a dog, I would take care of dogs in the neighborhood. I would dog sit, walk them constantly, and would even bathe them. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian. However the thought of having to put an animal to sleep, kept me from fulfilling that lifelong dream. With two Golden Retrievers of my own Duke 7 years old and Enzo 7 months old who I adore more than life itself, and a cat my life is full. Looking forward to adding more fluffy friends to my life, and maybe even adding some excitement to my dogs life by adding new friends. I currently work full-time, but the majority of my days at work are spent working from home, so my schedule is flexible. The more dogs the merrier ! I will do whatever is necessary to provide the best care when someone else’s baby is in my care. I know what I would want for my dog, so I would treat each animal that is in my care the same way I would treat my own dog with lots of love, treats, walks and playtime!

“We hired Kelsey to care for our elderly cat who requires medicine 2x a day while going out of town. Our cat is very shy but took to Kelsey very quickly. She was punctual, meticulous, and went above and beyond to provide outstanding care for our sweet guy. She played with him, took outstanding notes, followed up with updates and pics, and ensured he got everything he needed. We would hire her again with no question. Highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.

“Kaitlyn was an amazing pet sitter for our 120 pound great pyr/ GSD mix! While our dog can be a bit tough meeting new people, Kaitlyn dove right in and provided regular check ins, potty breaks, and playtime for our boy. Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been a Veterinary Technician for the past 3 years, however I have been taking care of animals all my life. I have years of experience from my own dogs and cats as well as other families’. From puppies/kittens to the senior babies I can help out wherever you need it :) I am canine/feline CPR trained I work full time at a veterinary clinic, so I have time in the afternoons/evenings for walks or drop ins! Boarding availability on weekends :) I have two friendly cats who free roam my house. I feel very strongly that pets are family and should be treated as so. With that being said I take many precautions to keep them safe in your home as well as my home.

About: I've had multiple dogs and cats my whole life and they have all been my best friends! We like to cuddle, go on walks and learn new skills. I'm no stranger to pets of all different personalities and know how to meet them where they are. I'm experienced in providing insulin to dogs and topical treatment to cats. I don't currently have pets of my own but have spent weeks looking after the cats and dogs of friends and family. I love those times that I'm able to bond with their fur babies and would love to get to know yours as well! I currently work remotely and can be available for boarding throughout the week and weekend. I'm available to hangout with your pets, take them on walks or bathroom breaks, feed times or personal enrichment, whatever they may need. I have a backyard that pets can run around in, it is fenced on one side only so they would need to have a long leash for safety. I don't have other pets so they wouldn't have any problems there! If coming to your home I'm happy to go by the rules that you set and the comfort levels that you have. I always find pets do best in their comfort zones anyway and I'm excited to meet them where they are!

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over 6 years and have cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. From playful puppies to mellow seniors, I adapt to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who loves long walks or a cuddly couch companion, I’m experienced in creating a safe, loving environment that helps them feel right at home. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I work full-time during the week, but I’m completely free on weekends—perfect for giving your pet my full attention! Whether it’s boarding, drop-ins, or long walks, I make pet care my priority on weekends. I also have flexibility in the evenings during the week for check-ins or walks, depending on your needs. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’m always happy to spend my free time with furry friends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority—whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I follow any instructions you leave carefully and stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel secure and relaxed. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and free of anything that could pose a risk (like small objects, harmful foods, or open doors). I always keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime and provide regular updates so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be loved and well cared for, just like one of my own.

About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 5. I have 2 dogs of my own and have prior experience in dog sitting and walking. I also had a cat that sadly passed this year, so I have experience in taking proper care of them too. I love making new furry friends! As I head back to college in the fall, I will be best available Fridays-Sundays to take care of your pups if you're away for the weekend!! I provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. I follow all owner instructions for feeding, fresh water, medications (if applicable), potty breaks, and playtime. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and safe!

“Excellent! My two boys loved her. She was on top of all their needs, she sent us lots of pictures, and updated us on walks and moods. We felt our boys were in very good hands. I would have her Rover for us again hands down!”

About: Hi there! I’m Jae☺️, a passionate dog lover and experienced dog walker. With a deep appreciation for all breeds, I’m dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and engaging experience for your furry friends. I prioritize their well-being and happiness during our walks, ensuring they get the exercise and socialization they need. Having worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll in the park or an energetic romp, I tailor each walk to suit your dog’s preferences. I’m also committed to maintaining open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos during our adventures together. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members and give them the care and attention they deserve! Let’s make every walk a tail-wagging good time! I’m currently in college so this schedule goes great with my classes. Sometimes my classes get canceled and I can dog sit early or take walks early. I have a dog playground in my neighborhood. I also have plenty of space inside to play and run around. I promise to make this a great experience.

About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about making pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I grew up with dogs and have two Labradoodles back home with my mom, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m very attentive to each pet’s personality and routine—whether they’re super playful, a little shy, or a total Velcro pet who wants to be by my side 24/7. I’m also big on communication, so you can expect plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is getting lots of attention, affection, and care! I work full-time in downtown Pittsburgh during the weekdays, with the flexibility to work remotely at least one day per week and occasionally additional days as needed. I have plenty of availability throughout the week for pet sitting, including early mornings, evenings, and overnight stays, with generally full availability on weekends! I’m always happy to coordinate around your pet’s normal routine to make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship! I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away, so I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as I can! I’m happy to stick to specific feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, or any other instructions you leave for me. I’ll give them plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their personality and space. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and will always leave things just as I found them. And of course, you can expect lots of pictures and updates so you know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for!

“Melissa took wonderful care of my two cats during my recent vacation. She is a very upbeat, positive person and has an obvious love of animals. After meeting her, I was completely confident in my decision to book her, and I was not disappointed. She provided pictures after each drop-in visit and was extremely quick to reply to emails. I will definitely be booking her again and I highly recommend Melissa as a pet sitter.”

“Megan came to my rescue and was available over the holiday. She took great care of my dog and kept me informed so I could enjoy time with my family. She is reliable and loved up on my dog. I will be using her in the future!”
