“I’m visiting Pittsburgh and needed a sitter for my dog so I could get errands done. I was so lucky to find Ella! She was so close we walked to her house.

It put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely use her again when I’m back in town.”


About: Overnight / day care: - 2 to 3 walks a day, around 30 minutes - at home care for 8 hours during the work week - spacious house with fenced in yard I grew up with three dogs, caring for them wrapped into my day to day routine growing up. Friends, family, and even coworkers have asked me to pet sit, allowing me to enjoy the perks of pet ownership whilst taking a hiatus on personal ownership currently. I also currently volunteer at the local shelter, which has provided me ample experience on how to manage different types of dogs with varying temperaments. I have a flexible work schedule, being able to pick and choose days/hours I work. My husband and I live quite an active lifestyle, going for daily runs/walks, and can incorporate your pet exercising needs however required. I love love love playing with dogs so rest assured your pet will be mentally and physically stimulated ! I live in a three story home with a fenced in yard with my husband. Your pet will have free rein in our entire home and have ample of outdoor space as well! If staying at a clients home I will be very respectful of your personal space and house rules !

“Abby and Jason are wonderful and took time to meet and greet the day prior since my pup can be shy. I wanted to find a place our puppy would be socializing and active while we had family (dog free) plans all day. They walked her, did a puzzle and the pups played great! Wall-E their pup is adorable and was so good with our dog. We definitely recommend them for doggy daycare! Especially for a shy puppy and nervous dog parent.”


“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of my Winston for the day. Great communication and gave him his medicine when needed. She took him on multiple walks and he came back a happy boy. Thanks Sarah!”


“Matt and Emma are amazing! My two dogs stayed with them for day care and absolutely loved it. They got along great with their dogs and came home happy and exhausted. Matt was great about working around my work schedule, communication, and frequent updates. So glad we found them and we can’t wait to book our next day care session with them!”


“Hannah took good care of my puppy. We were sightseeing in the area and she took care of Charly for two days. She sent updates and pics throughout the day of outside activities and his daily water/food intake. Will definitely use her again if we are visiting the area!”

“Krista was amazing. She came out to meet Jake and me, got to know him and helped him adjust. Jake suffers some separation anxiety and Krista and her dog made him feel so comfortable and Jake had an amazing experience. Thank you Krista!!!”


“Kerstin was super sweet and kind! Joey fell in love with her the moment he saw her. She was super attentive and affectionate towards our baby. Will 100000% ask her to watch our fur baby. Thanks again!!”

Garfield dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was Sophie’s first time staying with Lauren. Sophie seemed comfortable with her right away. Lauren communicated with us during her stay, so we knew all was well. They went on walks, and she even took Sophie to a coffee shop to chill. We would use Lauren again!

Shannon and Stephen were wonderful with Finn! They were very flexible with our drop-off times, and Finn obviously had a great time playing with their puppies. They made sure to send lots of adorable photo and video updates of Finn having a blast. Highly recommend!
