“Sydney was great with our husky and pug! Our pug is diabetic, blind and elderly and Sydney was fine with giving her insulin. They were both well cared for. We will definitely seek out her services when we need a sitter in the future!”


“Sent pictures, followed instructions, my animals and my house have little particulars that she listened to well, too! My house was clean, animals were well taken care of and happy when I got back ❤️ Would recommend Cayla and will use again! Thanks again.”


About: Hello! I have worked at a boarding kennel for 5 years and have volunteered at the Humane society for 2 years as well. I am comfortable with everything your pet brings to the table! I am proficient in understanding a dogs behavior, your dog will be in trusted hands. I am currently working remote on Wednesdays and Fridays and would love some more dog time! I am available throughout the days on these days. I am also available on weekends! I will be sure your dog has the most fun on our walks! I know my way around many types of harnesses/leashes/muzzles. I can’t wait to get my steps in with your dog!

“We hired Megan for a nine night in-home dogsitting job. She truly went above and beyond and we came home to find our pups safe and well cared for. She took it upon herself to create handmade gifts for both dogs and my two children just because that’s the kind of person she is. Would highly recommend and we would be thrilled to re-book in the future!”


About: I have owned a variety of dogs throughout my life, some bought and some rescued. I know what it is like to go through the ups and downs of raising a dog and I would love to play a role in helping you in that journey! I am an involved and hard worker with a passion for pets. I love going for walks and staying active and am always outside doing something. I can handle energetic dogs and puppies and I don’t mind getting pushed around a little and I am great at giving baths after long nature outing. I do have another job but it is only open on the weekend so I have plenty of free time during the week. I am also pretty flexible when comes to hours as well. I love to have a set idea of do’s and do not’s from a pet owner before I house sit just to make sure I am not overstepping or over correcting and to make sure everyone is safe at all times. I currently do not petsit in my home because of my living situation.

“Kaleigh was a perfect sitter! She loves Doughboy as much as I do and gave him a great week with her. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the week. We will definitely use her again!”


“Melissa watched my pup for a few days while we were away! He did well and was happy and healthy when we returned. She kept us informed and sent us pictures. I will definitely use her again!”



“Markie was easy to communicate with, flexible, responsible and took wonderful care of Marco and Mia in my home. Couldn't have asked for a more positive experience.”


About: I've been the go-to sitter for my family for years because they know how much I love to be around animals. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have two cats who are my whole heart, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust to care for you furry family when you are away. I am a freelance artist and am usually doing various creative projects in the Pittsburgh area. Which gives me a very flexible schedule to focus on pet care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or overnight care, I can usually accommodate short notice and regular routines. I'm happy to work with your pets specific schedule to keep things consistent and stress free. I provide most of my care in the client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routine. Whether it’s walking, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my own home, I can only accommodate small dogs who are cat-friendly, since I have two cats of my own. Their well-being and yours are always my top priority.

“Erica was wonderful with my 8 month old mini golden doodle who has really bad separation anxiety. She helped keep her distracted and redirected her when she was barking for me. Look forward to booking another session. :)”


“Tricia house and pet sat for my two dogs and two cats for 6 nights while we were on our honeymoon. She was great!! The pets loved her and she sent lots of pictures which we loved. She went above and we would definitely book her again in the future!!”


“We are so grateful to have had Allison stay with our Corgi while we were away for a week. Our dog has anxiety and typically becomes very stressed while we are away, but Allison stayed at our home, followed his usual routine as closely as possible, and made sure to give him some extra love. She would check-in with us daily to let us know how things were going and would ask questions if she was unsure of something. She was respectful with our home and belongings and made sure to leave things nice and tidy for our return. As someone who tends to leave a lot of instructions when it comes to staying with our dogs, I can’t recommend Allison enough! She truly made us feel comfortable that she had things under control so that we could enjoy our vacation.”


“Kristie was so wonderful. She was extremely attentive to my dog's needs, gave him a lot of attention, and he very clearly loved her from the pictures she sent. She consistently sent photos of the routes they walked on Google maps to show that she'd made sure Franklin was given enough exercise and stimulation, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely book her again!”


“We were absolutely thrilled with Kayla's exceptional house and pet-sitting services! From the moment we met her, her warm and friendly demeanor put us and Cooper at ease. It was evident that she had a genuine love for animals as she bonded with our energetic Labradoodle, Cooper, in no time. Throughout her time watching over our home and furry friend, Kayla consistently went above and beyond, maintaining excellent communication and sending us regular updates, which reassured us that everything was in capable hands. We returned to a happy and well-cared-for Cooper, and our house was just as we had left it. Kayla's responsible and caring approach truly made our time away stress-free, and we wouldn't hesitate to entrust her with our dog and home in the future.”


About: I have always had animals and pets around me and never hesitated to take care of others pets when needed. Grew up with three labradors, a cat, and a bird. I currently have my own cat with my partner! I am currently working full-time remote. I can be flexible on the location I work from depending on my meeting load on any given day. I can be more flexible after 5pm for other activities. Usually, my Sundays are busy with church and meal-prepping/running errands. I do not offer service in my home. However, I will treat your home with the most safety and respect to you and your pets environment as though it were my own.

About: Not only can I watch your pets, but I can provide grooming, adventures and senior care if needed. I also love to send pictures and videos along with any updates to let the owner to ensure their pet is having a great time. I work part time normally 3-4 days a week with limited hours in a day, so I can provide lots of fun and attention for your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard, but do have an electric fence as that could be an option for a dog who understands invisible fences. I also utilize a runner and can always take them out on leash. I have a large yard with a big neighborhood that’s not on a main highway. I have a dog basket in my car in case we needed to take any car rides. I also have camera set up in the house so I can always check on the fur babies for the few hours. I do work in the day.
