“Jeremy was excellent with taking time to meet Dina before her stay. He sent a lot of nice pictures and Dina was very happy when we picked her up. We will be using Jeremy again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child, have over 20 years experience working with dogs. I’ve worked with puppies to senior dogs including ones with disabilities. I personally had a dog that lost her mobility due to a spinal cord injury but with hard work and consistency I was able to teach her to walk again. I work for myself from my house so I have plenty of time to help with your fur baby. I currently have one dog after our second one recently passed. Her and I go on two or three walks daily each over 2 miles. She would love to have a friend to play with again. I have a large back yard and a super pet friendly two year old puppy to keep your dog company. If need be I can crate your dog but highly unlikely it’ll ever be needed.
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and leaving our dogs for the weekend so we weren’t sure what to expect. She made everything so easy - sending pictures and videos throughout the day and keeping us updated on how the dogs were doing. Our pups especially loved the fenced-in backyard! We highly recommend her and will definitely book again.”

“Raeann was by far the best Rover we ever had. She took the time to meet our dog beforehand and was wonderful. She gave us updates with pictures very often and made us feel like we left our dog with an old friend. I'd recommend Raeann to any pet owner who wants a worry-free experience! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Lindsey and her family took excellent care of our dog, Willow for a 1 week stay. We received daily photos and comments of how her trip was going, which made us feel in the loop while we missed our girl. Would recommend to others who need a safe, loving home for their dog.”


“Samantha was FABULOUS! My dogs seemed so relaxed and at home with her and her family! I will 100% send my dogs in their own vacation with Samantha the next time my family and I go out of town! 🐶🥰”

“I absolutely love Debbie and Adam. They took such great care of my chihuahua, Ozzie. I got lots of pictures sent to me and I could see both of them involved with loving care for him. They have two small dogs of their own and one of them shared her bed with Ozzie so he’d be happy! I highly recommend them and will definitely use them from now on.”


About: Experienced dog walker and pet care taker. I want to take care of pets during the week so my dog Mabel has friends to interact with. I work full time remote as an engineer, so I am at home most of the time. I let Mabel out at least 4 times day and we go for a nice walk after work. I have a big unfenced yard with a 30 ft radius dog leash. Very nice neighborhood to walk in. Lots of space in the apartment and can be separated comfortably if needed.
About: As a dog mom to two German Shepherds, I have hands-on experience caring for large breeds and understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and lots of love. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I strive to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm attentive to details, dependable, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you're away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace with extra cuddles, I'll treat them like part of my own family! I work full-time but have a hybrid schedule, working remotely three days a week and in the office only two days. This allows me to spend most of my week at home and provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care for your pets. I'm happy to work with your pet's routine, including walks, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away! My home has a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, fresh air, and play. I have two friendly German Shepherds who love having furry friends around, but I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety. If you prefer, I can keep my dogs completely separate from yours and provide a quiet, comfortable space just for your pup. I’m also happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their normal routine or helps them feel secure. I follow your instructions closely, respect your pet’s boundaries, and make sure they receive plenty of love, supervision, and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and at home while giving you peace of mind!
“Brittany was very accommodating and thoughtful. I appreciated her willingness to ask questions to get to know all of Bailey's needs, and ensure a happy comfortable stay. I will definitely look to Brittany the next time I need to board Bailey.”

“Alexis and Kevin took great care of our dog, Aira. They were flexible, communicative and sent us regular pics of Aira who felt at home there with lot of dog friends to play with. We will reach out again in future when we need help.”

“Bruce had a great time with Gemma and Gizmo! We received regular updates and adorable photos. He loved playing with all the toys and of course snuggling! We will definitely be back - thanks Gemma!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, both breeder and rescue! I understand the patience, love, and discipline all dogs need, and am ready to give them my all when in my care! My schedule is flexible if there’s two weeks notice. I work on a daily/weekly schedule in the restaurant and film industry, so if I have aforementioned advanced notice I can plan to be home for as long as needed for a pup! While I have no yard of my own, I am near Mellon Park and a couple blocks away from family that will allow me to use their fenced-in backyard as needed! All of my friends and family are dog lovers, so if anyone visits my apartment, your dog will be double cuddled and spoiled and loved (Note: I will be the primary caregiver, I will not cede care of your pet to anyone else while working. I will always be present)! I have plenty of healthy treats as well, and if no specific bed is provided for a lodging stay, I’m willing to buy one myself. Dogs are allowed on couches/chairs with some blankets I already have, and I will put their bed next to me in my room during the night. I love taking walks around the neighborhood and enjoying food, and obviously would have some eager canine company to join me!
“Rae was amazing with my two pups! She took such great care of them and sent photos and videos and updates during their stay. Thank you for catering to each other their individual needs and for taking Ralphie with you hiking! I would 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for top tier care for your dogs.”

“Adam was a great sitter for Remi. He was very communicative and flexible with our revised pick up time. Proof of life photos were provided every day with a small summary of the day. Would highly recommend!”

“Maria was so great! She and her family made my pup feel right at home and provided me with daily updates while I was traveling. My pup had a great time! I would definitely book with her again!”


About: Hi there! I’m an experienced pet sitter and outdoor enthusiast with a degree in wildlife biology. I’d love to meet your pet or pets and provide a caring, loving home while you’re away. Whether this means walking the dogs, grooming, playing or sitting with the cats, administering medicine, feeding the fish, or watering your beloved plants, I can do it. While you are away, I will treat your pets as my own. Rest assured, they will be lavished with the love and attention that they need! I have over 14 years of professional animal handling experience, though I've taken care of animals since I was a kid - primarily cats and our family dog, but also more exotic critters like birds, raccoons, and squirrels! My professional experience includes wildlife rehabilitation, vet assistance, and kennel work. I worked at the Pittsburgh Zoo for 10 years, providing animal care to a large range of species from reptiles to birds to bugs. I love all animals and can't wait to meet yours and let them feel cared for in any special way they need while you are away. Thank you for considering me! I currently have a wide-open schedule, allowing lots of time for play and special attention to any specific care requirements. I am available for overnight care, walks during the week, but sorry no boarding at this time. I am extremely responsible and attentive to detail - I understand that each individual animal requires different care and attention, and I am prepared to provide whatever they need. Whether they need medication, a long run, some peace and quiet, I will treat them with the love and respect they so rightly deserve!
“I feel like my dog was safe and well taken care of while boarding here, things seem to be run very efficiently and our dog came back happy and healthy I would highly recommend boarding with them the next time I need a dog sitter I'll be using that”

Crystal is an absolute joy to work with! She has such a warm, positive energy, and her communication throughout the entire stay was fantastic. Most importantly, our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’re so glad we found Crystal and will absolutely be boarding with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone!

Jennifer is absolutely incredible!! She is so kind, responsive and flexible. Hank was so happy during his stay and treated like a king! Jennifer helped tremendously to put our minds at ease that Hank was taken very good care of during an extremely difficult time in our family. We cannot recommend her enough!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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.
