About: I am a young professional violinist based in Pittsburgh, and I have spent many breaks home from school dog-sitting around my neighborhood. Whether it‘s walks or giving pets, being around animals brings me so much joy and I would love to keep dog-sitting while I build my career as a musician. As a gigging musician I have a flexible schedule based around performances, lessons, and auditions. My schedule can vary week to week but I am almost always squeeze in walks and drop-ins according to my daily availability. My experience with sitting has included home-stays, dropping in multiple times a day, and just going for walks; I am comfortable with all of these options and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with dogs!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and truly understand how much they’re part of the family. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, my girlfriend has three that I help care for regularly. Including daily walks, feeding, and plenty of playtime. I’m patient, calm, and great at reading dog body language, whether it’s with energetic puppies or older dogs who need a gentler pace. With years of experience caring for all kinds of animals, from reptiles and amphibians to rodents, I’m confident handling unique personalities and routines. Your dog will be treated with kindness, structure, and genuine affection. I currently have a very flexible schedule and can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available most days and times, with the exception of Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons (2–4 PM). This flexibility allows me to give pets consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care whenever needed. In my home, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I live in an apartment with two roommates and two friendly cats; My cat, Ollie, and my roommate’s cat, Emil. Because of that, I mainly focus on caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re most comfortable and have their familiar surroundings. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely; Feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I always keep things clean and calm. I treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Richard was great! He was very accommodating and I felt very safe and comfortable leaving my Enzo in his care. He was thoughtful and even brought in my packages for me. Will definitely use him again!”

“Caitlin has been so great with Isla! She is noticeably happier and calmer when I get home since Caitlin started walking her”

Alicia D.

“It was our first time using Rover and Lindsey was an excellent companion and dog walker for our pit bull mix! Her report after each visit was thorough and usually included an extra anecdote about their time together and great pictures! Lindsey very concerned and asked for our advice when our dog wasn't eating much food when we initially left. We appreciated her initiative. When there was a big rain storm and they couldn't walk outside, Lindsey spent the time playing with our dog inside and gave him the attention and exercise that he needed. Overall a great experience and highly recommend Lindsey!”

Janet K.

“Maddi is absolutely wonderful! She brings such a positive energy and we so appreciate the care attention she gives to Mom’s dog Brady. So grateful for her help!”

Shari S.

“I’ve never had someone check on my dog in my home before. I am so glad I found Ashley and that she agreed to check in and walk my dog Kenya. I needed help last minute, and she agreed to walk my dog so quickly. She sent pictures and great updates about their walk and how Kenya did. I had peace of mind at work knowing that Kenya was getting her exercise and some affection. I will definitely continue to book with Ashley!!”

Victoria M.

“Ashley was a dog whisperer! She walked my recently adopted adult dog with a traumatic past. Ashley never imposed on my dog’s space and spent time each day making my dog feel safe. By day 3, my dog was greeting her at door and happily walking with confidence. I am so grateful for Ashley and her kind and patient energy. I highly recommend you book her services if you want peace of mind that your dog is being treated with respect by a mindful person.”

“Ericka was such a huge help and was so responsive. We look forward to working with her again when we are in Pittsburgh. Thank you so much for your help!”

About: I limit the number of pets so they get personalized love and attention. From shy senior cats to high-energy puppies, I have had and worked with all ages and needs. I provide frequent updates catered to the owner’s request. I like to build trust through consistence and long-term relationships so your pet sees a familiar face and is happy. I am retiring from teaching and will have a part time work-from-home job and will have plenty of time for love and cuddles with your pets. I walk several times a day so your dog (or walking cat), gets plenty of exercise. I have a fenced in covered patio so they get plenty of fresh air! Again, I walk several times a day, have a park at the end of my road, I have a fenced in patio and there is a dog park within walking distance of my home. If they ride well in a car, I will take them to a big park for walks and dog park socialization. I have had dogs since I was born and cats all of my adult life. I have watched many animals for friends, families, neighbors, etc. I have had rabbits, turtles, fish, iguanas as well. I have a special place in my heart for animals.

About: I love dogs and have experience with many dogs of varying ages and breeds. I grew up with golden retrievers, a dachshund, and a variety of rescue dogs and cats. For the past 12 years I had a Great Dane, Harry, who sadly passed away recently. I raised Harry from the time he was 8 weeks old so we went through the puppy stages, the teenage years, and the golden senior years. So, I’ve seen it all as a dog mom chewing, behavior issues, allergic reactions, accidents, illnesses, etc. I’m well equipped to take care of your pet and handle any challenge that may come up. I’ll care for your pet like he/she is a member of my own family- just like I did with Harry for 12 years. We will go for walks, have playtime, snuggle on the couch- whatever they’re into! I’m very organized, timely, and resourceful. I will work with your schedule and follow any instructions you have for your pet, no matter how specific. I do not have any pets of my own right now and only take 1 client at a time so your pet(s) will be the only pets at our house during their stay. I work full-time from home so have flexibility with pet care needs throughout the day. I can provide bathroom breaks and feedings as needed throughout the day as well as check-ins. I have a fenced in yard (front and back) for the dog to use, but also have plenty of walkable areas around my house. I have no pets of my own right now. At a client’s home I will follow their instructions for yard usage, walks, etc.

About: Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m a lifelong animal lover. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior cats who need a little extra love & attention. I’m comfortable with administering oral medication, keeping up with feeding schedules, and making sure your pet gets plenty of exercise and affection. My goal is to make sure your pets are happy, safe, and stress-free while you’re away — and to give you peace of mind, too! I currently work full time but I work from home! I work Monday - Friday 8:00am -5:00pm. I have two small breaks during my shifts & one hour lunch break. My job allows me to be flexible with my time during my shift so I do not always have to be in my office! I can work anywhere that offers WiFi! I live in a townhouse community so there is plenty of space for exercise & hanging out. My own home has a nice front patio & a large grass area. I love taking my dog for walks & being outdoors!

About: I've always taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors! I work with various dogs of all sizes and am comfortable with all types of breeds. Im a college student working part time on the weekends so i'm available M-F for your pet sitting needs! I am also available sometimes on Saturdays depending on the week so feel free to ask away. I live in a quiet adult family home with a nice fenced backyard. The only other pet I have is my precious 3 year old Shihtzu!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and owned dogs all my life. My own dog, Billy, is a rescue from a korean meat farm. I’ve had him for 6 years and it required lots of training and working with to bring him into his full personality. I have also volunteered at pet shelters over the years and work closely with shy and scared rescues that need help. I currently bartend full time so my mornings and afternoons are free majority of time as long as I am given a few days notice! I will give your pup a walk to stretch their legs and get their daily exercise. I will also stay at your house for visits to play with them and get all their energy out while you’re gone for the day.

About: I’ve worked at a dog and cat boarding and daycare center for over three years, and have years of experience cat sitting for my neighbor. I’ve worked both in the kennel and daycare and have experience in different areas of animal care. As a recent graduate, I have more free time! I am a recent college graduate who works part time at a kennel. I am always able to make time to care for pets and adapt my schedule! I cater to the needs of the animal and owner. With having experience with different needs of an animal at my boarding and daycare job, I have an understanding of how to reach those needs.

About: I adore all types of dogs, big or small. Years of experience have taught me that the most important thing is respecting their space and boundaries while making sure they have everything they need. I also believe that it is incredibly important they have an outlet for their energy, so I am willing to play with them for as long as it takes - sometimes fetch has gone on for over an hour. Again, safety is of the utmost importance and I have experience taking care of all sorts of dogs with different temperaments, including some escape artists, who were all safe and sound when their families returned. I'm currently working part-time so I have some incredible flexibility when it comes to taking care of your pups! I'm willing and able to wake up early or stay up late as needed and I can spend plenty of time making sure your pets get all the love and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety is my top priority and while I have experience caring for a variety of animals, including some with serious medical conditions, I believe that their families have the best understanding of what they need. As such, I am happy to work with you to determine the best means of caring for your pet, whether that includes particular leash attachments, the use of indoor gates, external gates. I also have a fenced in backyard for any pets that might end up staying the night.
