“Daisy had another great vacation with Kathleen! Daisy made a few doggy friends and went on many long walks with them. I received cute photos throughout the day.”

“My husband and I needed a sitter short notice and Rich came to the rescue. We needed someone to board our 1 year old crazy Samoyed pup and Rich welcomed him into his home with open arms. He sent us photos and videos while we were away and you could tell our pup just had the best time playing. Thank you for being so accommodating and caring. We are excited to have found a sitter close to home we can trust while we are away and look forward to taking him back next time!”

“Amy was accommodating of changes in our schedule, very communicative, and gave Tai back cleaner than we left him! We were grateful for her regular photo updates as well!”

“Finn loved his first visit with Nelia and Brett! Nelia provided daily feedback and photos, which we very much appreciated. We would definitely be pleased to have Finn stay with them again.”

“Bryn and boots were great hosts! Bryn took great care of our dog Julie. She seemed to really care about and follow Julie’s schedule. She was extremely communicative and we really appreciated all the updates even during a holiday week. Julie seemed to love spending time and playing with Boots. We will definitely be requesting to book again!”


“Victoria is incredible! Our little dude gets so excited when we say her name and sees his overnight bag ready by the door. She truly loves all of her visitors with her whole heart, communicates every day (often twice or more), and has become our go-to for long and short trips! Thank you, Victoria!”

“This was our puppy's first night away from home and I can't say enough about how reassuring it was to have him at Emily and Patrick's. He loved having another dog to play with. They had mountains of toys to entertain him as well. We got pictures and videos. And, more importantly, they kept him content despite his separation distress. We'll definitely come back to them when we need a dogsitter!”


“Great peace of mind leaving my two dogs with Samantha when a family emergency mandated I leave town suddenly. She was quick to respond and and very flexible with pick-up days/times, which I really appreciated. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and calm from all the playtime they got in Samantha's large, shady backyard. Will definitely book again with Samantha in the future!”

“He was excellent, kept us updated on our dog. He was patient and very good at what he does. 👏🏾👏🏾I felt good leaving our dog Ace with him. He send puppy mail daily. 😊”

“We left our puppy Bailey with Christy and Bandit for a wedding weekend and we couldn't of been more pleased with her stay. Bandit was very welcoming of Bailey and Christy was very accomidating to our crazy schedule coming in from out of town. We would definitely have Bailey back there again. Thanks”
“Valerie is an amazing pet sitter!!! She took great care of my sweet senior dog with medical issues. She followed my instructions exactly. She took him on several walks a day, trail hiking, and even took him to the pet store to buy him a bone marrow bone ❤️. She exceeded my expectations and I rebooked with her for this coming week. A++++++”
“Mike is one of the most genuine dog sitters I’ve ever trusted my dog with. My dog enjoys the outdoors so I’m glad he took her to the park, on walks, and on an adventure hike. I would absolutely recommend him!”


“Our pup, Fred, clearly loved his stay with Amy. He came home from his long weekend tired and happy. For a moment, I think he didn’t even want to come home with us, he was having so much fun! Thank you, Amy, and we hope to have Freddy hang out with you again soon!”

“Rae did a great job with our dog Rosie. She was very conscientious - took extra care to text me with any concerns, took Rosie for walks, and sent nice pictures. The large, fenced-in yard was great for our 90 lb. English lab - lots of room to enjoy. Thanks Rae - we will definitely use your dog-sitting services again!”

Pet boarding requires a lot of trust, and there’s no one else in Pittsburgh that I’d trust more to care for dog than Mike. He takes great care, ensures plenty of active time outdoors, and always keeps me updated on how my pet is doing during stays. When I return, my dog looks like she is right at home, so I know she always enjoys the company of Mike, Roxy, Norm, and the family. Absolutely recommend booking with Mike

Luna had a great stay with Denise! We loved the photo updates and could tell she was happy, safe, and well cared for. Communication was excellent! We brought Luna with us on a trip to Pittsburgh, and we were so happy Denise’s flexibility allowed us to pick Luna up and see her for a few hours. We’d happily book again — highly recommended!
Our dog's stay with Anahita was smooth and trouble-free. Anahita was clearly a responsible and caring person, plus she had great backup from her roommate who apparently fell in love with our little dog! No wonder, she is cute. This was a first time stay and everything went great, our dog settled in and seemed very happy from the reports...and tired now that she's home, a sign of a good visit with lots of activity. No problem at all recommending Anahita (and her room mate), and would definitely book a repeat stay in the future.
Rae was absolutely wonderful to work with! She responded quickly, provided great updates, was super flexible with both pickup and drop-off, and truly went above and beyond to help us out. I had originally reached out to Rae but ended up booking another sitter who lived a bit closer. When that sitter canceled just two days before our trip, I immediately contacted Rae again. Within minutes she responded, happy to take care of Poe. She even rearranged her plans with friends to make our pickup time easier. Rae was truly our saving grace, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much, Rae!
