“Mariah accepted my request last minute and was a huge help. She went above and beyond when walking my pup on an abnormally hot day to make sure he didn't overheat. Great communication. Will request her help again.”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’m genuine, patient, and pay close attention to every pet’s individual needs. Whether that’s a playful pup full of energy or a senior dog who just wants a calm, comfy space. I treat every animal like they’re mine and part of the family. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and truly present with your pet! I’m available Monday through Friday during reasonable daytime and early evening hours. I try to keep a consistent routine so your pet gets reliable care. I’m flexible with advance notice and happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule as much as possible. I offer care in clients’ homes only, since I believe most pets do best in their own space and routine. I’m available for drop-ins, dog walks, and in-home sitting. I’ll follow whatever your pet is used to whether that’s a specific feeding time, meds, or just getting out for a walk and some fresh air. I’m always respectful of your home and try to keep things as low-stress as possible for both you and your pet!


“Where do I start. Kiana did an amazing job. Was right on time for every walk, great with communication and all together just a good person to make you feel safe. My dogs are my babies, and she took care of them as if they were her own. Will be rebooking with her.”


“Ashley is so great with Melo. We appreciate you being flexible and accepting this booking just two days ago! Thank you for being so patient, kind, and gentle to Melo. See you again, soon.”


About: As a previous dog owner and sitter of nearly a decade, I have a very strong skill set when it comes to catering to your unique pup's needs! I am keen on carefully following the instructions left by dog owners while also using my own sensible judgement to make the best decisions for each pet. I can't wait to meet both you and your pup! I am a full-time CMU student, so I'm available to care for your pet(s) predominately on the weekends and all semester breaks during the school year, but anytime during the summer! I live in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs unfortunately. However, I do live within 3-5 minutes away from several parks, including Mellon Park, The Walled Garden, and Baum Grove Park.

About: I love fur babies, they are the best company anyone can ask for, I’ve had my fur babies since I was 9 years old and my little fur family just keeps growing! I am currently working full time. But I can still keep your fur baby company!! I am im available for walks or drop-in visits on the weekends all day, and on weekdays I am available in the evenings! I now have one babies, so I am available for at home care. I have reliable transportation to get to and from your fur babies home.

About: I've had rescue dogs my whole life and understand the patience, love, and consistency they need to thrive. I’m the proud dog parent of a 3-year-old Plott Hound and a 4-year-old Beagle/Pit mix—both super friendly and always up for a game of tug-of-war! Over the years, I’ve successfully potty trained, crate trained, and helped my dogs work through separation anxiety. My hands-on experience gives me a calm, confident approach with all breeds and personalities. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own in a safe, fun, and loving environment. I create my own work schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, flexible time to pet care every day. I structure my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and training with my two dogs. This flexibility makes it easy to welcome another dog into our routine—whether for a walk, drop-in, daycare, or boarding. I’m committed to giving every pet the attention and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play alongside my two friendly, playful dogs. There are plenty of toys to keep everyone entertained! I’m happy to crate your dog if needed and always follow your daily routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I believe in clear communication, so I love sending picture updates to keep you connected and reassured while your pup is in my care.

About: I have extensive experience in pet care, having spent several years looking after a variety of animals including dogs, cats, and small pets. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, administering medication, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and cages, and providing companionship to ensure each pet feels safe and loved. I understand the importance of routine, patience, and attention to detail when it comes to animal care. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior pets with special needs, I always prioritize their well-being, comfort, and happiness. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. Since I’m available every day, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, grooming, or simply spending quality time with them, I make sure every task is done with care and patience. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust easily to last-minute needs or extended care, which helps build trust with both pets and their owners. Being fully available means I can maintain a reliable and steady routine that keeps pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. I care for pets in their own home to ensure they stay comfortable in a familiar environment. When I visit a client’s home, I follow their specific care instructions closely. I make sure to keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress while their owner is away. I’m respectful of the home, always keeping things clean and organized, and I stay in touch with owners through updates and photos so they know their pets are safe, happy, and well-cared for.

About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind.
