Dog Walkers in Dravosburg, PA

About: Hi! We're Nikki and Stefano. We've both had dogs in our homes as long as we can remember and won't ever have it any other way. We've had dogs ranging from toy chihuahuas to heelers to our current pups, a Great Pyreneese/lab and an Australian Shephard/Red Heeler. So any dog size or breed is fine with us. We love spending time with animals and we would love to get a chance to meet new dog friends and give them the same love and attention we give to our own pups while also meeting and learning more about each different breed and their personalities. My wife works from home and i work in the office 3 days out of the week, so we are 100% flexible with our days to watch, walk, or play with your pups. I work in the office Tuesdays through Thursdays. My wife works from home and is available to watch and play with the pups all day. We have a good sized fenced back yard that our two dogs love to run around in so your dogs will have plenty of time to hang out and play outside or relax and take naps inside.

“Olivia is fantastic. She delivers exactly what you ask. Our girls love her. They get so excited when she comes in the door. When it’s raining she finds creative ways to exercise them and burn off the energy. She quickly learned our training keys and works hard to keep them consistent. We love having her take care of our fur babies!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals — starting with playful puppies and large-breed dogs. As a lifelong pet owner myself, I understand the deep bond between pets and their families. I've raised both big and small dogs and supported friends, neighbors, and clients by providing loving, reliable care for their animals when they couldn’t be there. I’m also comfortable and experienced around children and elderly individuals, which allows me to provide a calm, respectful, and compassionate presence in any home. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel at ease, knowing they're in capable and caring hands. I’m available to care for your pets during regular workday hours, with occasional evening and weekend availability as well. Whether you need a midday check-in, a weekday companion, or occasional support outside the 9–5, I’m here to help keep your pets happy and comfortable while you're away. I understand how important your pet’s safety is, especially when someone else is entering your home. That’s why I take extra care during every visit — making sure doors and gates are securely closed, checking surroundings before entering or exiting, and always keeping your pet's safety and comfort as my top priority. I know how stressful it can be to trust someone with your space and your pet, and I treat both with the respect, attention, and care they deserve.

“Tony is so great with our mastiff! I never have to worry about her when I know it’s Tony’s day. She’s definitely a much happier pup after his visits. 10/10”

“Keven made a quick and great connection with our dog. He messaged us promptly after walking our dog and with details that left us confident we made the right choice with booking him. We are highly satisfied with Rover and with Keven!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8. I've had two dogs while growing up along with multiple cats. I also always took care of my aunts two dogs everytime she goes on vacation. I also have experience giving dogs medication in their food due to my aunts dogs and experience giving medication to cats due to a cat I had growing up. I currently have 7 very spoiled cats and one guinea pig! I'm currently pregnant and I'm looking to make taking care of furbabies a full time job! I would have plenty of time to spend with your furbabies. Live in the bottom floor of a duplex so I have complete access to front and back yard. Plenty of litter boxes and food dishes for kitties. Large one floor apartment with huge living room with plenty of room for indoor play. I have 7 energetic but also chill cats that will either play with your furbaby or sleep.

“Sarah did a great job with our big dog. She was consistent and communicative. We felt secure knowing that our loved pet was in great hands.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs cats and rodents since seventh grade. My first period frequent pet sitting job was a pitbull name bonsai for over a year until I had to move. Love all animals all sizes. I can walk big dogs just fine! I also had a pet bunny before so I know how to care for one. I have plenty of time while doing online school. Love to walk/play with cats/dogs/rodents. I can during Wed-Sun every week. This is a good schedule for college. I have a pet cat at my place with me and I feed her twice a day and sometimes give her treats. I play with her every single day and I also give her baths because she enjoys them at least once a week. I am also willing to wash an animal if needed.

About: Hey there! I have many years of experience caring for dogs and am a dog-lover at heart. As a kid, my family owned a German Shorthaired Pointer named Emmitt (My brother was an Emmitt Smith fan. Please don't hold that against me! lol). I was responsible for feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning up after, and most importantly, loving Emmitt ☺️. Over the years, I've dog-sat for many friends, family members, co-workers, etc. and am a very reliable and trustworthy care-taker. As a teacher, I have summers off, so my schedule is very flexible during the summer months. During the school year, I am only available on weekends and potentially during holiday breaks. I am very detail-oriented and will follow whatever instructions are left for me so that your pet is cared for exactly the way you envision. I am happy to send messages, photos, etc. to provide updates about your pet. I look forward to meeting your furry friend!

“Marisa is lovely! She is communicative and kind. She takes such care with my dog. I’m so grateful I found her!”

About: I've been a dog owner most of my life. Friends & family often rely on me to feed, walk & play with their fur babies. I'm retired so I have plenty of time to devote to the wellbeing of your pet. There is always time for belly rubs & ear scratches. I have a dog friendly house - lounging on the couch is okay and sleeping in my bed is encouraged. Snuggle bunnies are welcome here. Your pet will have full run of the house - I don't use crates unless a crate is part of your pets usual routine. I have a large yard that is NOT fenced. All boarders will have to be walked on a leash. It is important that all pets are leash trained.

“Melanie was amazing with our dog Sugar. From her first greeting with Sugar until the last day of her stay, Melanie made Sugar feel like a special dog, playing with her and petting her before and after her walk. She also gave Sugar fresh water after each walk. One of the best things Melanie did was take cute pictures of Sugar during her walk and she uploaded them to the Rover app, so we were able to see Sugar in the wild each day. This was great. I give Melanie the strongest recommendation for anyone looking for incredible care for their dog. She is a star!”

About: I've lived with cats and dogs all my life. Currently working from home. I worked at Petco for five years so I know a lot about pet care. I'd love to take care of your beloved pet while you're away knowing that they're in good hands with a nice family! I will provide updates daily. I currently work from home and I'm here all the time except when I have to go out for groceries so I'm not out for a long time. Your pet will not be left alone for hours. I have two indoor cats who are friendly to other cats and small dogs. I'm willing to do drop in visits too if you feel more comfortable.

“So good with our new puppy! It was his first long day in the crate and Sandra took great care of him! Walk and play time! She even helped us out by cleaning up some puppy puke left behind. We hope to have her help again!”

About: I have grown up in a household with dogs and other animals since the get go. I have a Golden Doodle named Ozzy & I help take care of my parents 6 dogs when I am home! I have a pretty flexible schedule during the summer, as I am a recent college grad hoping to score a job as an English teacher! I am an animal lover. If your pets love to play, I will play. Walks? Easy. Anything they need, I am happily doing for clients :)

About: hello! my name is Jessica. I currently do not work, I am a stay at home mom, so I am always available. I absolutely love animals, I grew up with a golden retriever, then when I moved out of my parents house and got my own house, I started to foster for a local shelter that helped rescue animals from high kill shelters in other states, I fostered many puppies and dogs of all ages, but there was one special one that I fell absolutely in love with because the connection was undeniable, when I took in a 8 week old puppy that was very sick and they weren’t sure he was going to make it, the first few weeks were very hard, but I did everything that I possibly could to help him and he pushed through it and beat the odds, what we had was special and I couldn’t give that up so I ended up adopting him, I named him Hurley. I continued to foster and a year later I took in another dog that was about 2 years old, I ended up having another special connection with that dog, I ended up adopting her, I named her Roxy. I saved her and she saved me from one of the hardest times in my life and we became inseparable. Despite Hurley having a lot of health problems, I gave him the best possible life I could, and even though he wasn’t here for long, I know he lived his best life. Roxy unfortunately passed in January 2021, that destroyed me and left me heartbroken, and that is when I left my job and decided to become a stay at home mom again. I have an 11 year old son, who stays with me part time, as his dad and I have 50/50 custody, he’s very good with puppies and dogs and absolutely adores them, he loves to keep them busy and play with them as much as their heart desires when he is here. In January of this year (2022), my fiancé got me a puppy for Christmas, her name is Aria, she is currently 11 months old, she is a black lab, full bred. Aria is super friendly and playful and loves other dogs and puppies. I’ve got experience with it all, from pet sitting, walks, and boarding with dogs of all ages and sizes, I’m also able to administer medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your pup happy! I am available all the time. I’m usually always home, and when I do run errands, it’s not until my fiancé comes home from work so Aria is never alone. Aria and I start our day at 6:30am, I take her out in our backyard to let her go to the bathroom then we come back in and snuggle up for a little while watching tv, at 7:00am I feed her breakfast. At 8:00am I take her outside in our backyard for some playtime, we usually stay outside for a half hour playing, she comes in and naps for a while and that’s usually when I’ll get stuff done around the house. She usually wakes up from her nap around 10:00/10:30am and that’s when I’ll take her back outside to go to the bathroom and if she’s up for it we’ll play for a little. Aria is well house trained so she’ll always let me know when she needs to go out and I let her out. During the day we get lots of playtime in and just hanging out. Being that she’s still a puppy, she gets fed 3 times a day, so at noon, I’ll feed her lunch. My fiancé gets home from work at 4:00pm. Around 6:00pm my fiancé and I will take Aria on a walk, the time of the walk always varies. I feed Aria dinner around 6:30/7:00pm. Then we just usually hangout for the night and will let her out when needed. We usually go to bed around 10:30/11:00pm. Aria is crate trained, and sometimes she still chooses to sleep in her crate at night which is in our bedroom, and other times she’ll sleep in her bed that is also in our bedroom, or sometimes she just sleeps on the floor or in our bed, I’m able to accommodate any sleeping arrangement that you would like so your pup is able to sleep happily and comfortably. I will always follow your instructions and I’m always able to adjust accordingly to fit those instructions into our daily routine. We have a fenced in backyard with lots of room to play. We live on a dead end street and we’re the second to the last home on the end of the street so it’s pretty quiet. Our home is still mainly puppy proofed, with no cords that are accessible and we have baby/puppy gates in a few places to ensure safety, being that we live in a two story house, stairs and dogs scare me unless i’m there to watch, so i always keep the gates at any of those points to keep Aria off the stairs so she doesn’t end up playing on them and getting hurt or anything. I try to keep our home as clean as possible but it’s a bit hard during shedding season, and with a puppy that loves to play in dirt/mud, that tends to get tracked into the house sometimes as well.

About: I started my career working with dogs at 18 doing dog walking and pet sitting. I did this for a number of years before I directed my attention to working in daycare and boarding facilities. About 9 years ago I moved to Pittsburgh. I began getting myself out there and working in a few local facilities before finding the one I felt fit me best. Here I worked my self into a general manager role. I have over 5 years experience managing dog care facilities, and have extensive experience in animal husbandry, the “Fear Free” approach, as well as general grooming, medicinal, and other needs. After years working in facility and having kids, I have directed my attention to working from home to spend more time with my kids and own dogs. I have four beagles who are very friendly and love to play, and I also have a dog park very close to my home! I am a foster for Nittany Beagle Rescue and have foster three dogs so far! I am currently not working and have a fairly open schedule. I own 4 beagles of my own, who are extremely friendly and love to play with others.. Although I do not have a fenced yard, I walk all my dogs on leashes. I also have a dog park located right down the street and a car suitable for pets complete with a seatbelt if needed!
