“Margaret was wonderful with Ginger! She was very responsive and sent daily updates and pictures. I was very relaxed on my trip seeing that Ginger was so comfortable and enjoying her stay!?”
“We boarded Griffin again with Meagan, overnight. We had planned to pick him up at 4 PM the next day. something came up at the last minute and I requested doggy daycare with her, to keep him until 9:30 PM. She was very accommodating, even though it was last minute. I appreciate that she was flexible, so much!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone and she was well taken care of and seemed very happy. Bryce provided daily updates that helped us to not worry. We will definitely be using Bryce in the future!”
“Ashley took superb care of my dog while I was out of town, and due to scheduling conflicts I had to extend his stay another day, which was super easy. I received several texts each day of his stay, with updates of how he was doing and Ashley even sent some pictures. My dog enjoyed playing with her dogs and interacting with her little daughter as well. My dog is my baby, so I did a lot of research trying to find someone who would take good care of him while I was out of town, and Ashley is definitely the best option in the area. This is the first time I have left my dog for a couple days and not been worried about him. My dog enjoyed his time at Ashleys house, so much, that I will be taking him back every now and then just for some day play. I will definitely be using her service again and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a good dog sitter.”
“Jennifer was great with our dog Molly when we went away over the weekend! She kept us updated with pictures and messages and took her for lots of walks. Thanks for taking such good care of her!”

“My husband and I had to go out of town for his work. Our boy Fenrir needed to be watched seeing we couldn't take him. We are very pleased. After the meet and greet I felt comfortable leaving Fenrir. He had so much fun and was well taken care of. We most definitely were able to have a good time and not have to worry about Fenrir. We most definitely will be booking again. If we could give more than 5 stars we would.”

About: I have experience pet sitting dogs for up to a week at a time as well as experience with my own dog Buster who is a golden retriever and cocker spaniel mix. I currently work full-time in the afternoon and evening. I collaborate with my mom who works in the mornings so that your dog would only be alone for up to four hours at a time. I keep the rules that you set for your pet when they stay at my home. When we go outside, I have an electric fence as well as a good size neighborhood to walk with your dog.
“Very sweet family!!! Monte had a wonderful stay at Pamela’s house. We got updated with pictures very often which made us feel happy and relax that our dog was in good hands. We will definitely ask Pamela again for our next trip!”
“Left a review before and nothing has changed, Stephanie is great and took amazing care of my ball of energy, Titan. Sent me pictures of him to make me feel comfortable and updated very often. Will continue to return to Stephanie for any sitting needs in the future.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience. I’ve fostered dogs and cats of all ages through Humane Animal Rescue in Pittsburgh, which taught me how to care for pets with unique needs and personalities. I’ve been pet sitting for many years and have had my own pets throughout my life, so I know how important it is to provide reliable and loving care. I recently graduated from Pitt and have a completely open and flexible schedule right now. I’m focusing on doing something I truly enjoy spending time with animals while I look for my next job. This means I can fully adapt to your pet’s daily routine, whether it’s daycare, walks, or overnight stays. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can play safely, as well as a friendly dog who can keep your pup company if you’d like. I can easily crate your dog if needed and love working on basic commands to keep pets engaged and happy. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat their pets and space with the same respect and care as I would my own.
“Lexus is still sleeping from her fun filled weekend with her new friends. Elicia and her family were great with Lexus, very patient and understanding. Lex has a bit of separation anxiety and took some time to warm up, Elicia saw it through and helped my girl feel right at home. This booking was incredibly short notice like 12 hours notice and they did not hesitate to take my bestie in and watch her for the weekend. This is why I love Rover, great people, great service and most importantly the best fur baby care. 10/10 highly recommend Elicia and fam. I will be setting up playdates so Lexus can work on her socializing and tiny human interactions. Thanks Elicia, you are the best!”
“Genna certainly loves dogs and it shows. My dog happily went with her when I dropped her off and Genna kindly sent me pictures of her stay which was greatly appreciated. Great job Genna”
“First time using a pet sitter. Danielle and her family were so kind and attentive to our dog. She was definitely tired when she came home but not as tired as I expected which to me meant she was relaxed and able to rest in their home. Thank you for a great first experience.”
“Jodie was awesome in taking care of our two labs. We moved to Colorado last year and was looking for someone to care for our labs. One of our pups is older, nervous, and has never been watched by someone other than family. Both of our pups did great! I highly recommend Jodie.”
“This was Wynnie’s second stay with Mary and we are just so grateful for her. It is so comforting know we are leaving our pup in great hands and she gets first class treatment while we are away. We really appreciate that Mary sends us pictures and updates each day. We really can’t say enough great things about Mary! Wynnie can’t wait for her next stay! Thank again Mary!”
