“Kathie did an awesome job taking care of my cat while my husband and I were on vacation! My cat has had health issues in the past so I’m always anxious to have him looked after while I’m gone and Kathie was great about writing updates and keeping me informed. It was a weight off to know someone who cares about people’s pets was watching after him”

About: We started hosting dogs as a family when we ourselves needed to board our pets but we’re uncomfortable with the idea of leaving them in a kennel. We found Rover and decided to open our home as well so others could enjoy the same quality of care, love and companionship we did. Since then, we all relocated to different areas so I took a break. Now that I am settled in Pittsburg full time, I figured there may be a need here as well. The separation alone can be hard on our babies so having a reliable and trustworthy person to look after your pet is of utmost importance. I have a small rescue dog named Roxy who is very social and has lots of "friends". She was found eating from a dumpster and is now a lil fatty with a wonderful spirit and the cutest personality. I have kept many dogs over the years (large and small breeds) and feel it’s more like a slumber party than a job. If this is your first time, don't worry, we can always do a meet and greet before the stay. I find it becomes more like a play date than a scary situation to both the owner and the pet. Even for the more timid dogs, I make the situation comfortable. With constant love and attention, I think this is a great safe place to leave your babies. If you have any questions, please let us know. Why I love dog sitting I actually didn't start enjoying dogs until I got one of my own. It was by default. My friend is a rescuer so I volunteered to help while she was working for a few days. The pup attached itself to me. Since then I have become so attached to animals that we ended up having two dogs and work at the shelter on the weekends. My oldest son has always had a passion for dogs and plans to be a vet so this experience is so beneficial to him and his future. We just love having them and giving them a safe, loving place to visit and play. Meet my pets We have two spayed/neutered rescue dogs, both very social and love to have friends visit. One is a medium breed, the other is a smaller dog. About my yard It does not have a fence all the way around but I have never had an issue with this. My schedule is very flexible as I own a small business and work remotely. I am also semi-retired so my company is less demanding of my time than typical scenario. I find crates work great for those who have not become extremely social yet. The safety of their “room” seems to relax them as they warm up to new surroundings.
9. Jada C.
“Jada was wonderful with my pets, who can be a little challenging. Her attention to detail and communication made my animals fall in love with her and gave me to peace of mind to be present for an out of town memorial. Thank you, Jada!!”
10. Heather D.
“For the many years I’ve known her, Heather has shown an astounding resolve for taking care of Pets. For a while, she was in a household with 2 dogs as well as 2 cats, in which she took care of them with due diligence. She is mainly experienced with cats, as those are her pets, and has taken care of them for many years. She is good with pets, and is someone I would definitely trust with my own pets.”

12. Jennie M.
“Jennie pet sat for my two 50 pound dogs while I was out of town for the weekend.

15. Dolmance G.
“Dolmance and her son were absolutely tremendous! They took great care of my girl, Cricket. She’s a fussy girl and they showed her so much love and I can tell by the pictures she’s enjoyed playing with them. I will 100% use them next time I’m out of town. 10/10 would recommend!”
16. Shelly S.
“Due to our usual Rover sitter not able to book weekend drop ins, we met with Shelly prior to our first stay to ensure it would be a good match for drop in visits with our two dogs. She was quick to communicate and accommodating to our schedule. We just returned from a much needed long weekend "vacation" with our two dogs under the care of Shelly. She sent us pictures and updates each day. We returned to two VERY happy and well-cared for dogs. We will certainly be booking Shelly in the future!”
