“We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter! She watched our puppy multiple times in one week (even on short notice) and was always timely, responsive, and incredibly patient. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pup was in such good hands. We can’t wait to continue working with her!”
“Meghan has been seeing my puppy, Indie for a few weeks now, and she is really great with her!! She plays with her the whole time and the Rover report cards are always super thorough! It is great to have someone so thoughtful looking after your pup!”
“Kathleen did a fantastic job taking care of my three cats. She left photos and detailed reports, which I really appreciated. It was nice to know my kitties were safe and sound while I was away. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Sadie is a wonderful pup sitter! She's been checking in on my 2 pupps for dinner and potty time every weekend for a few months. The dogs are happy, and excited when I say her name before I leave for work. Directions are always carried out thoroughly, and communication about health concerns and pet behavior are always top notch. Sadie always does the best anyone could with Pittsburgh weather and thunder/rain averse dogs and gives great updates about her time in my home. The dogs are happy, im happy. I highly recommend her services 😊”

About: I have taken care of dogs for a majority of my life. Many people have put their trust in me to take care of their family best friends. I am calm and patient and bring that energy into caring for animals. I know how important pets are to their owners and so I take pride in making them feel safe and well loved. I am currently a building based substitute at Bellevue Elementary so I have nights and weekends open. Once the school year is over, my schedule will open up significantly. No matter the location I will ensure a safe, caring and loving environment. I will respect you and your pet's regular schedule as far as eating, walking, playtime and bedtime. I will respect your space and ensure that your pet feels just as loved in your absence as they do in your presence.
“Chelsea does a great job with Champies. She takes great care of her and Champies is really starting to come around which takes time with her!”
About: The moment I became eligible, I applied to volunteer as a dog walker at a local rescue shelter in Syracuse, New York. This experience allowed me to care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, deepening my understanding of animal behavior and needs. Growing up with a paralyzed French Bulldog also gave me firsthand experience in providing compassionate, specialized care for animals with disabilities. I begin my full-time job in mid-August, so I’m currently not working and have wide open availability. I'm flexible and happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve! I provide attentive, well-rounded care tailored to each animal’s needs and comfort level. I prioritize reading a dog’s body language to ensure they feel safe. Whether it takes 15 minutes for a shy pup to warm up to me or I’m immediately on the floor playing with an energetic dog, I adapt my approach based on their temperament, size, and energy level. I aim to create a calm, positive environment so every pet feels secure.
About: I love taking care of pets especially taking dogs for walks and play with toys with cats. I recently started volunteering at a nearby shelter to love on more animals:) I am available to visit before 7am and after 5pm Monday through Friday. Weekends I am available anytime to take care of your furry family member. I love taking dogs for walks or runs. I also love when dogs or cats have a favorite toy to play with. I also like taking pictures of the animals to send to the pets family so they know they are in good hands!
About: I've taken care of many pets in my life. Cats, dogs, and even ferrets. I love all animals no matter the size. I have always wanted to care for animals all my life. I also love to take pet Portraits and keep my clients updated whenever needed! I currently work Monday to Friday 8 am to 4 pm. I'm available after 4pm every Monday to Friday. Most Weekends I'm available all day I clean my fur babies litter box every day to keep a healthy environment. I tend to brush their fur twice a week and always give them lots of love every day!
“Richard did an incredible job. Showed up for daily visits with our pets and sent photos and report cards on every visit. Would definitely use again and recommend his services.”
“Emma was great!! She kept me updated every check in; sending me pictures and notifying me every step of her check in with my fur baby. She made sure I felt confident leaving my pup in her care! Definitely going to be booking with her if I am out of town again. 10/10 recommend”

“Beyond being one of the friendliest people I know, Chris is reliable, consistent, and so eager to care for my dog Buffy. I used to feel awful leaving her for long trips, but now that he watches my pets, I feel so much better. It's clear that he not only loves animals, but understands their needs. Sometimes I think she wants to stay when I come to pick her up after a trip lol. I couldn't recommend Chris enough.🤠”
