About: I've been been a kennel attendant for 6 months where I took care of dogs of all breeds. I've also learned how to administer medication to pets for different diseases I am currently unemployed so I will have plenty of time to make sure your pets are loved and cared for! I have 3 pets myself so I have plenty of experience! I've been working in the animal field for a little over a year, but have had my own pets since I was little. You can trust me with your animals because I love them as much as you do and don't want to see anything bad happen to them.
“Kayla was wonderful with my pup Arlo! I had to leave town for a week and he needed someone to walk him in the middle of the day, and she was great about communicating with me regarding how he was doing during the week. She also was prompt to initiate a meet and greet before I hired her, and she was calm and patient as Arlo became comfortable with her. I will definitely be asking for her help again in the future!”


About: Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, offering comfort through tough times. I genuinely love being around animals and caring for them. (I allow animals on my bed I’m not sure how to change that ) I have classes, but your fur baby will always be my top priority. I’m home every evening to care for them, except Fridays when I’m working on the ambulance. Walking, feeding, watering, bathing and getting all their zoomies out. I enjoy walking and physical activity meaning they will be tired out by the end of the night.
About: I have a lot of patience when it comes to taking care of animals. I will spend extra time making sure your pet has everything they need and that they feel safe with me even while you are away! I have had many dogs and have been around a lot of cats growing up, and I feel super comfortable around all kinds of animals and cannot wait to meet your pets!! I have no problem with last minute requests or questions that you might have! I attend college and work part time, but my availability is flexible on week days so please reach out with any requests! I can usually accept any evening or weekend bookings and would love to help with any extra care you need for your animals! I am very passionate about animals and am super excited to meet and play with your fur babies!! The care I will provide is feeding, walking, letting outside for potty breaks, playing with them, and extra time just to have someone there with them! I feel comfortable around little dogs and big dogs like pitbulls and golden retrievers! With my pets I, pay attention to them, let them outside when needed, go on walks with them, make sure they have enough water everyday, and check for any unusual signs they may be showing. I plan on caring for your pets like they are my own and making sure you are up to date on anything and everything!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs/ cats my whole life. You’re animals would be in good hands and loved so much. They would never not be attended to I just love animals and giving them affection because they deserve that too. I can work any time you need me, they are more than welcome to stay at my place or I can travel to you I do drive and have my license! I do not have a yard because of the school apartment, but I will always walk your dog and go to a park near by and just have lots of fun with your fur babies.
About: Hello! I’ve taken care of different types of animals. animals (Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Hamsters, Birds, Fish). I am an animal lover and do all I can to make them comfortable and happy. I work night shifts and I’m a college student. If it works with my schedule I can take last minute requests. I can’t do Sunday mornings though as I have church. When caring for pets in your home, I always aim to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to your instructions, and get plenty of love, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I respect your home by keeping it clean and tidy, and I’m careful to follow any special instructions you leave
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life. All of my family owns a pup (or a few), and not to toot my own horn, but I’m always the go-to pooch auntie when visiting. Give me all the slobbers and toys, I’ll play just as much as them!!! My first job was as a dog groomer, soothing anxious or wild pups to cranky old woofers. 😆 I’ve dog sat for chihuahuas, pit bull mixes and Dalmatians. There is no dog too small, too large or too air headed (I’ve had my fair share of disoriented huskies running about the shop, only love to you)!!! I’m my schedule is currently quite flexible as I’m predominantly working online. I love going for walks and am available to do so at any point between 8am-8pm! I offer all other services, all you need to do is ask and share the times, and I’ll work with you to see if it would be a good fit for you and your pooch! I currently live in a two story apartment with two kitties. I am more than willing to stay with your pooch in their preferred and comfortable space, but am open to offering space if need-be and there are no discrepancies with my fur babies! (They are a bit skittish around bigger dogs, but have been around large dogs without issues before during past sitting experiences and when I travel with them to visit family)!
About: I have had dogs and cats ever since I was 4. However, at age 12 I got my first dog just for me. I took it very serious and have loved taking care of dogs and cats ever since. I have raised a few dogs and cats of my own since they were young, some since actual birth. I have also taken care of a family dog whom was blind and deaf due to being very old. I currently can’t welcome pets into my own home, but I love caring for dogs so I wanted to still find a way to care for them! On days like now when it’s cold and everyone is busy, I have no issue walking your dog and ensuring they still get the outside experience without you worrying about their safety. I am big on giving regular updates and treating every pet as if they are my own. I’m a part time college student! Pretty much free with all online classes. I occasionally go to the gym but besides that, I’m always home. Think of it like if I’m babysitting someone’s child. It pretty much is for many dog owners, I would know as my dog Nya was very much my daughter lol. But it’s very important that I ask all the necessary questions so I can care for your pet the same way you would. If you give them treated only during certain behavior than I will too. If you only walk them in certain areas then I will too. It’s important to not only make every pet feel safe and comfortable, but to create an experience that doesn’t feel to far from home. That way not only does the pet feel happy, but once they are back to their owner it feels like they never left.
About: I've had a dog every year of my life until last year. I've raised puppies and then watched them grow old and had to say goodbye. I loved every minute, but cant say goodbye again. I do take care of my kids dogs. We are blessed to have a little Frenchie and a Bernese to care for from time to time.I am retired since September, and cant think of a better way to spend my time than playing with and caring for Pups! I am recently retired and no longer have a dog of my own as she passed last Christmas. Finding myself with alot of extra time, I know that caring for Pups would be a happy solution. As we no longer have a dog of our own, we do keep our kids dogs alot. We have a huge yard and stay with the dogs when they are outside. One is a Frenchie and the other a Bernese.
About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 12 and have house sit/walked/let out my friends and families dogs for years. I love taking care of them like they are my own as I don’t have any pets living with me now. I don’t work all summer long. I travel most weekends but am available during the week all day. I am off of work until August 1 and then my schedule doesn’t allow for much flexibility. I live in an apartment complex that is very dog friendly. There is plenty of room for dogs to use the bathroom and go for walks on the leash. I allow pets on my furniture but if that’s not what you do in your household I will implement the same rules you use. No matter how friendly your dog is, I won’t allow other dogs to approach since I don’t know many of the dogs in my complex. I do not hit dogs as a reprimand at any time so please tell me what methods you’re comfortable with me using instead if needed. Honestly, if there’s anything specific you can feel free to ask for it or question me if you need!
About: I used to work at an animal rescue so I’ve dealt with all kinds of dogs! What I learned from working there is that every animal is special and deserves all the love in the world. I work part-time at an elementary school. I typically work Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so my schedule any other day is wide open. I just need the client to put in the request a couple days in advance! I am a college student so I live in an apartment with three other girls. The apartment is pet friendly and we have dogs over all the time! There is no fenced in yard, but there is a beautiful, spacious yard behind the complex. As for a client’s home, I will care for the pet per the clients request!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life so I know what all needs to be done and parents have relied on me to take care of our animals. I have also dog/cat sat for my neighbors multiple times every year. I’m reliable to take them on walks, feed them, and all of that. I am a current student at IUP but only have one class a day with multiple online on top of two part time jobs but my schedule is very flexible so I’d be able to spend more time with your animals if you’d prefer! If your dogs need to be crated I can easily do that, if they need to be walked can do that. Whatever you’d need done for them Id be able to do since I’ve grown up with two german shepherds my whole life.
About: I have 6 years of experience with dogs. From doggy daycare, Kennels, and veterinary clinics I have all the experience your furry friend would need! I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, medications and so much more! I will care for your dogs like my own. I currently work part time at a kennel I've been at for 3 years now. I can do Monday-Friday evening as of right now. I do Walks mainly but also drop ins and daycares. I do not do overnight stays or in home stays. I do not care for pets in my home but I would be happy to do whatever needs done with your furry friend. A walk? Ball time? You name it and I'll be happy to do it!
About: My mom owns her own grooming shop. I’ve grown up with animals all my life. I have my own pets as well. My border collie is 12 years old now. I’ve also cared for other animals as well such as cats, hamsters, bunnies, and other small pets. I’m home from college for the summer and looking for an active, outside job. I’m decently flexible with my schedule from weekdays to weekends. I care for my own pets whenever I’m home from school. My border collie is always by my side whenever I am home whether that is outside on a walk or inside playing with toys. I love all animals. I will treat your pets just like my own and give them all the love and attention they need!
“Sarah is wonderful to work with. Great communication, accommodating, experienced and knowledgeable with animals, punctual, very friendly and definitely a dog lover! We have a 10 month old female German Shepherd who is sweet but very high energy and still learning discipline and manners. Sarah's interactions with her went very smoothly and Leia(our dog) adores her. 10 stars! :)”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and rats. I started pet sitting for family and friends at 15. Since 2024, I’ve been employed by a dog daycare and boarding business in Robinson Township. I work there on my between semester breaks from school. I am a full time student at Seton Hill University so my weekdays can be fairly busy. My classes typically end by 4pm Mon-Thurs, but I’m very involved on campus so my schedule tends to change week to week. I’m most available on Fri, Sat, Sun. I keep my availability fairly up to date, however I’m normally pretty flexible even if I mark myself as “unavailable” so always feel free to reach out and we can try to work something out! I am from Pittsburgh and staying in a dorm on campus so I am unable to provide services at my residence. All services would have to be provided in your home. I’m happy to ensure confidentiality/safety however you would like if your home has a key, code, etc!
About: I'm a huge animal lover with a love of love to give. I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs for about 10 years now whether it was through family or other. Your dog will be in the most incredible care when they are with me! I work part time and have a decent amount of time before and after work or on my days off to walk and check in on pets! I live in the country and there is a lot of land to take walks on. I also provide exercise and stimulation via outdoor toys.
