About: We’ve had dogs all our lives and have not been without a dog for the past 15 years. We love spending time with our furry friends and friend's and family's furbabies. We have experience with dogs of all sizes, from teacup chihuahuas to large great danes. Stephanie even worked at a doggy daycare in her teens/early 20s. While we mostly take care of dogs, we would love to have the privilege to spend time with your cat(s), too. We currently have 1 dog and 1 cat of our own and are ready to spend time with your special animal baby of any (except snakes for Stephanie- so sorry!) species. (If you have a cow that you'd like to be checked on, Stephanie is your girl!) We both work from home. When you aren't available or are just too darn tired to take Winnie the Poodle for a walk or they just need someone to spend some time with, hit us up and we’ll do it for you! Our schedule is pretty flexible. If our calendar here isn't showing that we’re available, send us a message anyway and we can probably work something out. In our world, furry companions aren't just pets—they're cherished family members, each with their own quirks and unconditional love to share. We’ve spent a lifetime embracing the joy of treating them not just as animals, but as beloved children with wagging tails and boundless affection. In our care, your pets are not just under a watchful eye; they're enveloped in a warm embrace, showered with the same love and attention we give to our own family. Because to us, love knows no bounds, whether it's wrapped in fur or flesh.
“Megan has been our go-to for over a year now and we couldn't be happier with her. Our dogs are always comfortable, happy, and safe with her and her family. She is so kind, reliable, and a great communicator. Cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Regina did an amazing job with our dog Barley! Anytime we have gone away Barley was left with family and was very anxious to be with someone she wasn’t familiar with. She was also recently diagnosed with Diabetes is now on a very strict diet and insulin schedule. Regina was able to take great care of barley. She sent us pictures every day, and made barely a member of her family while we were gone! We will certainly use Regina’s services again in the future.”
“We recently needed to find a new sitter for our dogs for the first time in a couple of years so we were a little anxious about how they would handle a new place. They had a great first stay with Ellyn! She sent pictures/updates every day and we could tell that they were comfortable and well cared for. They were happy and tired from their adventures when we picked them up. We will definitely use Ellyn again and would highly recommend her!”
“My dog Thusnelda had a great stay with Lucas and his family. Their lovely home has plenty of space for running around and play. And their dog is also very sweet. Thanks, Lucas!”
“Amy did a great job! She sent daily updates and pics of Jeter. I won’t hesitate to board Jeter with Amy again. Overall, I am very happy and will continue to use Amy in the future.”
“Carol took great care of our puppy, Max, for about a week while we were on vacation. She was wonderful! Max seemed so happy in all the videos and pictures Carol shared. I think Max actually misses being there and having more friends to play with! Carol is easy to communicate with and was very flexible and accommodating.”
“Bryn and boots were great hosts! Bryn took great care of our dog Julie. She seemed to really care about and follow Julie’s schedule. She was extremely communicative and we really appreciated all the updates even during a holiday week. Julie seemed to love spending time and playing with Boots. We will definitely be requesting to book again!”
About: I’m from LA, where I worked for a dog hiking service where we started each morning with a group hike, came back home for daycare, and boarded dogs overnight. I love all dogs, big + small, and know how important it is for them not just to be well taken care of, but happy! Now it’s just me and my dog (Micho) in Pittsburgh exploring the trails around the city, and we would love to bring your pup along! As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule + take multiple walks a day, short hikes a couple times a week, and longer day trips on the weekends. Because I only take one dog at a time, my time will be completely devoted to your dog for one-on-one play, walks, snuggling, and everything in between.
“Adam was awesome. Not only was he great with my girl but he was very kind in dealing with me, this being the first time I’ve left my girl anywhere before. He reassured me she was good and responded patiently when I asked for constant updates. I actually think she misses him upon returning home with me!!”
“Bo seemed very at ease at Audrey's house. I appreciated the daily updates on him too! Thank you so much - will rebook if you're available the next time”
“Sharon is amazing. My husband and I went on vacation for 13 days, so we did a meet and greet at her house to ensure our two dogs would be comfortable during their stay. Her house is cute and dog-friendly, and I appreciated the time that she spent with us to go over any questions that we had prior to our trip. Sharon sent frequent updates to let us know that the dogs were doing great, which gave us peace of mind. In short, I will definitely book with Sharon again and highly recommend her for dog boarding.”
“Laura provided the perfect vacation for our Molly, who is older and just needs love and companionship. She was very accommodating to our schedule and easy to work with. We would highly recommend Laura and I am sure we will be using here in the future. Dave P.”
“Steve was awesome with our pitbull mix, Ruby. She’s a big sweet girl but we’ve had a hard time finding people who are comfortable with large breeds. She also is very afraid of thunder/storms and he was really great with her during some serious weather. Sent lots of awesome photos and kept us updated which we really appreciated! Would definitely recommend him to anyone!”
“Kita was extremely amazing! She handled our busy hyperactive puppy with love and care. I really appreciated her keeping me updated with pictures and messages! She even took my puppy to the dog park which was an awesome unexpected bonus! I would definitely recommend her services!! 🐶💜”
“Our dog genuinely enjoyed herself for the week she spent with the family. She immediately wanted to play with their dog Pepper at the first meeting, so the initial reaction was great at easing any possible concerns. Colette was great with the pictures and feedback, and everything seemed to go well - actually began to be worried that our dog wouldn't want to come home with us since she was having such a great time and getting loads of attention. Would definitely recommend this family and choose them again.”
“I had a truly wonderful experience with her taking care of Loki. She followed all of his feeding instructions carefully and maintained his routine very well. His meal timings were consistent, and I could tell he was eating comfortably and being looked after with attention. She also managed his walk times and daily activity in a very structured way. From the updates I received, it was clear that Loki was getting enough playtime, exercise, and rest throughout the day, which really helped him stay balanced and happy. What stood out most was the level of warmth and care she showed. The photos and videos she shared regularly showed Loki playing, interacting, and even making new friends. He looked very comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely happy in her home. In fact, the happiness and peace he was feeling were so clearly reflected in his face that it brought tears to my eyes. It truly felt like she made her home feel like a safe, peaceful space for him. Overall, I felt a strong sense of trust and comfort knowing Loki was with her. She didn’t just follow instructions—she genuinely cared for him, and it reflected in his behavior, his happiness, and his overall well-being. She is extremely reliable, caring, and truly excellent at what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Fox Chapel is $47
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fox Chapel
Omg! Natasha saved us when our sitter canceled with 2 days notice on a week long booking for a dog, puppy, and cat. She responded immediately after I reached out, came over the same day to meet us and even helped me find a number to contact Rover for a full refund of the other sitter. Natasha and her family took such good care of our fur babies. She sent pics every day and gave updates constantly.we even got a puppy photo shoot from her!!! Not only that, but I feel like I met a kindred spirit meeting her. She is such a sweet loving person & I’m so glad things didn’t work out with the first booking! We will absolutely be using her for future trips and plan on telling everyone about her! I could never thank her enough for helping us out on such short notice and being such an amazing sitter. 💗
Truly our dogs are our fur children and leaving them with anyone causes hesitation and Rafael understood that concern. Rafael and his family were absolutely amazing with Giotto. Photographs and updates were sent. The response time for any questions I had was immediate. The transition home was almost painless - it was almost like Giotto had found a second home. I will be using him again for both short- and long-term visits.
I feel so fortunate to have found Tyler to care for my very active and rambunctious 9- month old golden retriever. Tyler is very dog savvy and understood the challenges he had. He walked my dog several times a day meeting new people and dogs. Just the kind of socialization a young dog needs. I loved the daily updates and pictures Tyler sent. My dog seemed to be having such a good time, I doubt he missed me at all.
Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.
Kiah is fantastic! She sent frequent updates and pictures and I felt such peace of mind knowing that my dog was loved and having the best time with Kiah and her pets. She did a great job handling my dog’s allergies and reactivity and I would absolutely book with her again.
Shannon and Steven took WONDERFUL care of our little guy, Finn! The pictures they sent of him all cuddled up on their couch and playing with their own super cute puppies were delightful. Seeing how much fun he was having and how well he was taken care of made our days while we were gone. We hope to set up some playdates with their dogs again soon!

There are 912 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Fox Chapel. About 89% of Fox Chapel sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
