3. Alexis K.
“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”
4. Christy M.
“Christy, Louie, and Bandit we’re wonderful hosts. I needed to go out of town for the day and this was my first time using Rover. Traditional dog daycares seem to make Mungo nervous and this was a much better arrangement. Christy was so kind and we were able to do a quick meet and greet in advance. I knew immediately that Mungo would be comfortable with her. It was a huge relief knowing that the dog was happy and well cared for while I was gone. Many thanks!”
5. Brian B.
“These two were great on both occasions with my boy. They were able to meet him where he is at with his special needs (slow to trust) and provide patient introductions. We are booked for another day of daycare and will continue to book with them.”
6. Annie B.
“Booked last minute with Annie and I’m so thankful for her! We were were able to do all the site seeing knowing our doggo was having fun! Thank you so much!”
7. Tia D.
“Tia was great! She accepted my request on short notice and made me feel at ease about leaving my boy Pete with her. We drove into town and needed a sitter for a few hours. She was the perfect choice for Pete the Pug. He was safe and secure in her fenced in yard. She also made him feel right at home letting him on her couch as part of the family. He made a new friend, Tang her adorable dog. She sent pictures and even a video to help ease my mind about dropping him off with a stranger away from home. I highly recommend her. And if we go back to Pittsburgh I will definitely book with her again.”
8. Heather & David A.
“Heather and David were great! My pup had a blast at their house with their dogs. My pup played so much she fell asleep as soon as she got in the vehicle. Would and will use them again!”
9. Michael H.
“Michael and Maria were wonderful with taking care of our pug at their place. We were visiting Pittsburgh and needed to find a sitter to take care of our pug while we were out for a bit. Communication was excellent, responsive, and the status updates during our pug’s care was appreciated. Our pug has separation anxiety, but Maria was able to calm her down faster than the other sitters we have used. I could tell by comparing time stamps of the care text updates. We felt comfortable with Michael and Maria, and our pug came back to us very calm. We would book again if back in town. Thank you!”
10. Mandie L.
“Mandie, Jeff and pup Izzy were great with Soy on his 2nd visit to their home. Our dogs seem to have fun together! Mandie also is very reliable and quick with communication which was very helpful tonight when my plans shifted and I needed to pick Soy up early. I highly recommend this sitter.”
11. Kirsten S.
“Kirsten was really great with our beagle Pepper. She was also very flexible with pickup and drop off times. Highly recommend her for your dog boarding needs”
12. Denise P.
About: As a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for both dogs and cats, I currently have a two-year-old chihuahua mix. I love meeting new dogs and can’t wait to spend time with your pets! I own a home with a small fenced-in yard on Pittsburgh's Northside, perfect for safe outdoor play. Since I work from home full time, I can ensure plenty of attention, walks, and playtime for your furry friend. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Since I work from home full time, I have the flexibility to ensure regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I make sure to incorporate short breaks for outdoor play in my small fenced yard, and longer walks to explore the neighborhood. I make pet care a priority and adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the pets I’m caring for. When caring for pets in my home, they are treated like family. Pets are welcome throughout the house and are free to relax on furniture, nap on the couch, or sunbathe on the deck. I ensure they follow their regular schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable and happy. Since I work from home, I’m always around to give them the attention they deserve, making sure they feel loved and at ease.
13. Abena A.
“Abena has been watching my 4 month old dachshund puppy at her house during the weekdays the last month. She has been amazing with my dog. She’s very responsible, reliable, and has a true passion for dogs. Her dog Fig has been great with my puppy. My dog absolutely loves both Abena and Fig . I would 10/10 recommend her for any dog service!”
14. Sara H.
“My dog, Franklin, had such a wonderful time staying with Sara! She took great care of him and sent us so many great photos of him playing. I know he had fun because he was exhausted when he got home. I would definitely look to book with Sara again in the future!”
15. Riley & Bailey L.
“I was anxious as this was the first time using a service like this for dog sitting, but Bailey put my mind at ease. She sent pictures of my dog throughout the sitting, of them playing and going on a walk. I feel relieved knowing my dog was able to have a good time while we were away. I feel cofinent in saying that Bailey will take good care of your pet.”
16. Adventures with C.
“C took the best care of my fog Shadow! She took her to the dog park, on daily walks, and sent me pictures everyday. She was very communicative and quick to answer any time I texted her. I will be using her again!”
17. Barrett L.
“Barrett was fantastic. I was passing through Pittsburgh on a holiday weekend and needed someone to watch my two 1 1/2-year-old beagles while I attended a Pirates games with friends. Barrett welcomed Harper & Quincy to his home, provided regular updates, and took great of them (including giving meds). Would absolutely use again.”
18. Jacqueline O.
“Jacqueline was great and very responsive. She took great care of my dog, Nino. Her attentiveness definitely allowed us to enjoy ourselves exploring Pittsburgh knowing Nino is in good hand.”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my personalized approach, adaptability, and specialized skills. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from training puppies with patience and consistency to providing gentle care for senior pets with unique health needs. My focus on building trust with both pets and owners ensures peace of mind. Additionally, I prioritize clear communication and tailor routines to meet each pet’s emotional and physical needs, creating a safe, loving environment. My dedication to treating every pet like family truly sets me apart. Pet care fits into my routine through dedicated time blocks for feeding, walks, play, and grooming. Mornings often begin with feeding and walks, ensuring pets start their day energized. Midday or evening, I schedule additional walks and interactive play sessions to keep them active and mentally stimulated. Weekly tasks include grooming, restocking supplies, and maintaining their living spaces. I integrate these responsibilities seamlessly into my schedule to provide consistent and attentive care, ensuring their needs are always prioritized. Caring for pets involves tailored routines based on the pet’s needs and owner preferences. This includes providing regular walks for exercise and fresh air, ensuring proper feeding schedules, maintaining clean living spaces, and offering companionship to keep pets emotionally healthy. Whether at home or in a client’s residence, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency, treating each pet with love and respect as if they were my own.
