“Michelle was a great person for dodger. She took great care of him, he came home happy, and she frequently updated me with photos and texts about him. I will definitely use her again.”



“Jessica was wonderful with our dog, Primrose! Primrose really enjoyed playing with her dog. And she was totally spoiled all weekend. Jessica sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout the weekend, reassuring us that Primrose was happy. We will definitely trust Jessica to care for her in the future!”


“Sharon took the best care of Freddie, and sent pictures and a video so I could see him while I was out of town! I would recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”


“Destiny was super easy to deal with. Great communication. Simple drop off and pick up. Pictures of the dog lounging around living her best life. Will book everytime if she's available!”


“I was so pleased with Carol's care of my Yorkie. She did an excellent job and he was so very well taken care of. I could not be happier. I was also very reassured he was in good hands as she is a regular foster parent for dogs and has lots of experience. Thank you Carol!”


“She was amazing with my babies. Constantly updating me on them, and loving them like her own. She went above and beyond with taking care of them and making sure my girl didn’t loose her lamby even repairing lamby for us.”


“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”


“The best dog sitter in Pittsburgh! Took care of her for over a week while we were away. Sent messages, videos, and pictures everyday. Very social with lots of other dogs to interact with. Definitely booking again!”


“Ashley & Ryan were the best sitters I could’ve asked for. It was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter and I’m a very anxious “dog mom”. Ashley was so kind and kept me updated with photos and videos each day which helped ease my very nervous mind. My dog hardly wanted to come back home! They were also very flexible with timing and responded to any communications instantly. I’ve already booked his next stay. I can’t recommend them enough!”


“Ric is super! Saber had an awesome time there. Ric sent pictures and videos everyday to us to update Saber’s situation. We booked another stay with Ric again! Highly recommend!”


“Kristina and Fletcher were great! Very friendly and accommodating people. Most importantly, doggo was happy and healthy with them! She got lots of walks and attention, and we got plenty of pictures of her loving life while we were away. They were conscientious about her care, and we felt at ease leaving her with them. We will certainly be using them again!”


“Our 2, 15 year old pups (Toby & Summer) spent a week away for the first time time outside of a chain boarding facility. Given their age, we felt best having them get the 1:1 care needed however, this came with anxiety. Our anxieties were immediately put to rest because she offered a meet & greet then during their stay with Beatriz, she sent daily pictures, videos, and texts with updates which were beyond meaningful for us! They were SO loved and fit in with her own senior crew. 10/10 recommend Beatriz and her love that she has to offer for your animals! 🐾❤️ To top things off, our travels were to Puerto Rico and she was kind enough to offer us many recommendations for sites to see and food to eat! Thank you for the exceptional care that you gave to our fur babies, Beatriz! You are the best! 🐾❤️”


“We are so happy with our dog's care by Michael and his wife while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Our dog is a nervous dog so they paid close attention to her and she settled in nicely. They sent us updates every day with a photo. We will definitely use them again!”


“Joe is so good with my dog Henry. He set up a meet& great in advance to make sure Henry would be comfortable and to find out my preferences for his care, his communication is excellent, and he set photos regularly from Henry's visit and walks. Absolutely stellar care! Joe is wonderful!”


“Eric was so accommodating and not to mention quick! I needed some last minute sitting for a trip and Eric was quick to reply. Kept me updated with the perfect amount of updates. My baby Zeek looked like he truly enjoyed himself, and I’m 100% more than pleased with Eric’s service. Would i recommend? NO DOUBT and we’ll be back expeditiously!”


“Sierra was great with Hyde! Hyde is very high energy and can be temperamental with other dogs, which doesn’t always make him and easy dog to sit. However, I was completely comfortable with Sierra watching Hyde, as she was very communicative when needed and sent photos of him during the sitting. I will definitely be booking again when in need.”



“I absolutely love this family watching my dogs. They take fantastic care of my pups. I gets lots of pictures and know how they are doing everyday. Thanks Vivian and family!”


“My dog stayed with Kristi for 4 days & 3 nights and had a really wonderful time. Kristi is so great and easy to communicate with both before and during my dogs stay. She is professional, and truly cared about providing my dog the best possible environment and experience during his stay. She sent lots of photos/videos and updates so I was always at ease while I was away knowing my dog was happy and doing well. Her home and backyard are both great for dogs! She also has her home set up so the cat and dog have their own space and can be separated if needed. However, they did not need to be separated during my dog's stay and they co-existed nicely and her cat, Hashbrown, mainly stayed in his own space by choice. When I picked up my dog, he was happy and healthy. I will definitely be using Kristi again the next time I am away and cannot bring my dog along with me!”
