8. Tia D.
“Tia was great! She accepted my request on short notice and made me feel at ease about leaving my boy Pete with her. We drove into town and needed a sitter for a few hours. She was the perfect choice for Pete the Pug. He was safe and secure in her fenced in yard. She also made him feel right at home letting him on her couch as part of the family. He made a new friend, Tang her adorable dog. She sent pictures and even a video to help ease my mind about dropping him off with a stranger away from home. I highly recommend her. And if we go back to Pittsburgh I will definitely book with her again.”

12. Denise P.
About: As a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for both dogs and cats, I currently have a two-year-old chihuahua mix. I love meeting new dogs and can’t wait to spend time with your pets! I own a home with a small fenced-in yard on Pittsburgh's Northside, perfect for safe outdoor play. Since I work from home full time, I can ensure plenty of attention, walks, and playtime for your furry friend. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Since I work from home full time, I have the flexibility to ensure regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I make sure to incorporate short breaks for outdoor play in my small fenced yard, and longer walks to explore the neighborhood. I make pet care a priority and adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the pets I’m caring for. When caring for pets in my home, they are treated like family. Pets are welcome throughout the house and are free to relax on furniture, nap on the couch, or sunbathe on the deck. I ensure they follow their regular schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable and happy. Since I work from home, I’m always around to give them the attention they deserve, making sure they feel loved and at ease.
13. Michael H.
“Michael and Maria were wonderful with taking care of our pug at their place. We were visiting Pittsburgh and needed to find a sitter to take care of our pug while we were out for a bit. Communication was excellent, responsive, and the status updates during our pug’s care was appreciated. Our pug has separation anxiety, but Maria was able to calm her down faster than the other sitters we have used. I could tell by comparing time stamps of the care text updates. We felt comfortable with Michael and Maria, and our pug came back to us very calm. We would book again if back in town. Thank you!”
14. Sebastian O.
“Sebastian was very patient with our dog Lucy! She can be very territorial and doesn’t always take to people. We greatly appreciate your help with her!”
15. Claire S.
“Claire was great! Will surely be rebooking with her in the future!”
16. Christopher H.
“Chris has dog (and cat-sat) for our very skittish beagle and 2 cats. They are all very precious and frighten easy, but Chris took the time to gain each of their trust. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Chris, particularly if you have a sensitive baby or two.”
17. Olivia A.
“Olivia is one of the most caring people I've met. She not only loves animals as if they were your own child but she has perviously work at several doggy day cares, has worked as a vet assistant and is certified in K9 CPR. She has pet sit for me in the past. I always know my pups are in good hands.”
18. Amy C.
“Amy is outstanding! Fantastic communication and our dog seemed to have a very good time with her. We’ll definitely reach out to Amy in the future anytime we visit Pittsburgh. We couldn’t be happier.”
19. Jack C.
“Jack took great care of Max on short notice when i visited Pitt to attend the football game. Will definitely use him again on future visits.”
