“I brought my two fur babies to Pittsburgh, PA to be with me while I attended my class reunion. I found Ms. Carol on Rover. Immediately when I saw her face I knew she was the one I could trust my babies with. Ms. Carol, I’m so pleased to have met you. My babies were safe, looked after as if they were hers, attended to when needed, but most importantly, welcomed into her home by her fur babies.”

About: Hey there! I’m Destiny, your dog’s new best friend and go-to human for walks, belly rubs, and tail-wagging adventures. Whether your pup needs a midday stroll, a weekend getaway, or just someone to throw the ball 100 times (and then 100 more), I’ve got you covered. With plenty of experience and a heart full of love for dogs, I treat every furry guest like family. Safe, fun, and full of cuddles—because your dog deserves the best while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I love being around animals and make time for them every day! I have a flexible schedule and I’m always available, so your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and consistency whenever they need it. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I treat them like family. I follow their routine closely—meals, walks, playtime, and snuggles—so they feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I provide a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with lots of love and supervision. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and keep things just the way you like them while making sure your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Thank you Lindsay for taking good care of Kiki. It’s nice to know that there’s a safe place when visiting from out of town.”

About: I'm from PR, and I've been a dog rescuer since 2011. I have tons of experience caring for animals and giving them the love and treatment that they deserve. I love what I do. I retire and moved to Pittsburgh on February, 2023. It makes me a perfect match for your doggy. I will treat them as if they were mine. NO cages. I have a fenced runner connected to the pets' room that allows them to safely go in and out whenever they want. You can bring their bed or any special toys. I foster rescued dogs from PR that came to Pittsburgh looking for a second chance of life, and the money earn through Rover is used to cover their health and traveling expenses. I work from home, and my office is in the room where they will spend their stay, so they will be with me most of the day, and they will be able to play with my own dogs under supervision. If they are potty trained and well behaved, they will have permission to access all the house. To be able to satisfy you pup's needs, I will ask you to write down your special instructions and promise I will follow them as written. You will receive a lot of daily pictures of your furry friends.

“Kathleen was great with our dog Benny!”

I have a senior Chiweenie who gets along with almost every dog she meets!!

“Kelly was a great caring for our reactive puppy for a drop-in boarding. Our dog can get upset with changes, but Kelly managed her and kept her comfortable and active while we were away. Would highly recommend Kelly for your pup's needs.”

About: My name is Britney and I'm 35 yrs old. I was a traveling sitter for over two years and loved every moment of it. I also used to work at a doggie daycare and boarding facility for 5 years. I'm currently the proud human of 5 shih tzu's, 2 corgis, and my "old man" terrier mix. All are dog and human friendly amd love to play (except the old man). Throughout my life I've owned a variety of different pets including dogs, birds, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, tortoises, and a variety of farm animals including goats, pigs, chickens, and ducks. I love working with all animals and am very excited to meet new pets. I have quite a bit of experience working with animals and am comfortable giving medications if needed. There will be plenty of play time and leashed potty breaks for your pup. I look forward to meeting your fur babies! Thank you! I have a full time job now, I work overnights so I'm only away at night during the weekdays and my partner works from home so someone is home all day. The dogs we take care of have their own area to sleep in at night and have free access to the living spaces in our 3 story home, it's vary spacious and perfect for doggie stays.

About: I have had animals all my life. I enjoy cuddling and playing with them. When I was you younger I use to play with my neighbors dog all the time and often take it out for walks Pet sitting fits into my schedule since I am home all the time. I have the time and energy for any fur baby. I would love to watch your pet I have a pet loving family that would enjoy any dogs company. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them. There is also a dog park nearby. Your dog will be treated like a part of my family.

“Amy and her daughter were so great with my puppy! She opened up her home and accepted us as if we were family. My dog was so well taken care of and had so much fun he didn't want to leave. Her dog was so enjoyable and played with my dog as if they'd been long time friends. Amy loves dogs and she is someone you can count on. We will definitely be booking with her in the future!”

Chelsea B.

About: Growing up, I had all large dogs including a Rottweiler, Shepard mix, and an American Bulldog. But for the first time, I have a medium-sized dog at almost 50 lbs, my hound mix named Nola! I rescued her at 11 weeks old on June 16th, 2022. She’s my bestie girl! ~ and because she can be rambunctious sometimes I prefer to only dog sit female doggies that are around Nola’s same size. She tends to not care for male dogs so much. I have a large, fenced in yard and I work for myself which allows me the time to care for both mine and your pup. I also take my dog and any dog I watch to nearby parks frequently, too! A Meet & Greet is required with every dog prior to booking no matter the size or temperament. I am thankful to have flexible work hours and the space that allow me the appropriate time to care for both mine and your pup! I have a fenced in yard and the ability to separate dogs inside if needed. And I work from home, so your dog will get the attention it deserves :)

“Memo had a fun afternoon with Christa and her kids while we toured Fallingwater. Great communication and a sweet person. Plus she told us about great swimming spots along the river. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for someone to watch your pets while sightseeing!”

Beth E.

“Our dog took to Kim and Dave instantly ( which never happens). They took excellent care of her, and sent several photos. And you could tell that she was very relaxed and comfortable in their company. I highly recommend Kim. Thanks again.”
