About: Hi! I am Katelyn- a wife, a mom of four kids, and a life long animal lover. I truly believe pets are part of the family. I currently have two dogs and a cat of my own, and over the years I’ve fostered countless animals and spent time working in animal rescue. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life! I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets when you can’t be there. Whether your dog needs a walk, some playtime, a potty break, or just a little extra love and attention, I’ll care for them like I would my own. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from energetic pups to shy or nervous pets, and I’m always happy to follow your pet’s normal routine. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you! 🐾❤️ As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets! Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine, and I love being able to spend time with animals throughout the day. I can easily accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and pet care around my family’s schedule. I always prioritize making sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away! We are not able to watch pets in our home at this time. We have four little ones, two dogs, and a cat- it’s a full house!

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s individual personality and routine.

I’m attentive, dependable, and will always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am available all day Friday-Sunday. If necessary I can open my availability up from 10am-2pm Monday-Thursday. Open to discuss whatever works best for you!

About: *Hello! My name is Jessica and I cannot wait to pet sit for you! I have roughly 15 years of experience with pet/house sitting. With me, you'll be able to enjoy vacation, spend time with family, or whatever it may be with reassurance and a sigh of relief knowing that your little furry family member is in good hands. *I started off many years ago cat sitting for 2 cats and one of them needed a lot of care including medication twice a day. Over the years, that led to dog sitting 2 dogs. Pretty soon, that family referred me to another family, they did the same, and next thing I know I had about 4 different families that I was sitting for. I recently took some time off, but I am ready to start again! *For my job, I start at midnight until usually 8:30am. At some point during the day, I do online college courses (I'm done with schooling at the end of this year), so that means I will be able to spend basically the entire day with your pet! *Not only will booking with me help you, but it also benefits me because I thoroughly enjoy being around animals. Where I live, I am not allowed pets so anytime I am able to help people and it so happens to involve an animal, I am happy! *For pricing, I'm willing to talk about it. I will work with you especially if you have any additional services that may need done like cleaning up your house, etc. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you consider me when choosing a pet sitter. I work full time but start at midnight until 8:30am. That gives me the ability to be able to be at your house all day with your pet(s)! That means they won't be lonely while you're gone! In your house, I will give your dog all the comfort that it needs because I'm sure not having their owner around will be an adjustment at first. I am able to take your pet on as many walks as needed, follow whatever food schedule that is required, and have as much cuddle time as they let me! I would care for your pet with the mindset that this is a little family member and treat it with the kindness and respect all animals deserve and I never bring anyone else over to the client's house.

About: I am available any day of the week at any time, I love animals, I have 6 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I will bring your dog for walks, make sure they're fed on time, go potty a couple times a day, and anything else you need I can do for you! I have my own transportation and am able to stay at your house or your pet can stay at mine while you're gone! I live in an apartment and am located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and am willing to travel up to an hour from me if needed. I am looking to make extra money for school and to help you out! I currently don’t have any pets of my own.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs & cats since could remember, around 10 years plus. I have pets of my own and they are my world. One dog named Luna and a black cat named bean! I own my own cleaning business and make my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility\! This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your fur babies and work around their routines and needs\. 🐾 I’m happy to accommodate different schedules and locations whenever possible! I live in a safe & quiet neighborhood, in a apartment in Edgewood area. I love all animals and would treat yours like my own.

About: Experience & Background: ​Hands-On Fostering & Rescue Experience. My understanding of canine behavior comes from my experience as a dog foster. Fostering taught me how to support dogs of all personalities—from rescue pups adjusting to new environments, to high-energy dogs needing structured outlets, to timid pets requiring extra patience and gentle encouragement. Fostering trained me to read subtle dog body language, manage different temperaments safely, and strictly follow customized care plans, feeding schedules, and medication routines. Yes, I can give insulin if needed. ​Safety-First Approach & Dog Handling: Your dog’s safety and well-being are my highest priorities. In addition to my rescue experience, I practice strict safety protocols during every visit and walk: ​Leash & Gear Awareness: Double-checking harnesses, collars, and leashes before every walk to prevent escapes or gear failures. My well maintained fenced yard has ample amount of room to catch some sunlight and run and play. ​Proactive Walking Habits: Maintaining full environmental awareness on walks—avoiding unwanted off-leash dog encounters, staying clear of busy street hazards, and pacing walks to match your dog's fitness level and the weather. ​Routine & Structure: Following your home rules and training cues consistently so your dog maintains their normal routine without unnecessary stress. ​Tailored Care for Every Stage of Life Whether your dog needs a fast-paced exercise walk, structured mental enrichment and playtime, or gentle companionship for a senior pet, I adapt my care to their exact physical and emotional needs. You can expect detailed updates and photos after every visit, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for. I currently work from home during the week and have open availability during the weekends. I'm open to extended stays and to all your pets needs. Hi, I’m Ryan! Whether you need active daily walks, structured drop-in visits, or attentiveness while you’re away, my goal is to give your dog a safe, fun, and fulfilling experience—and give you complete peace of mind. ### Why Choose Me? - High-Attention & Structured Care: I understand that every dog has different needs—from high-energy breeds that need solid physical exercise to timid pups that require patience and gentle encouragement. - Safety & Reliability First: I practice proper leash etiquette, maintain total awareness on walks, and follow your home and feeding routines to the letter. - Clear & Consistent Updates: You will receive daily updates with HD photos and details on feeding, bathroom breaks, and activities after every visit or walk. ### What Care Looks Like: - Dog Walking: Tailored to your pup's energy level, whether that means a fast-paced fitness walk or a leisurely "sniffari." I handle leash manners with care and always double-check secure gear before heading out. - Drop-In Visits & Sitting: Includes fresh water, scheduled meals, playtime/enrichment, mental stimulation, and any medication administration your pet requires. - Daily Routine: I stick strictly to the house rules you’ve established so your dog stays on their normal, comfortable schedule. ### Safety & House Rules: - I always conduct a Meet & Greet prior to booking to ensure we’re a great fit. - I do not take unvetted dogs off-leash in un-fenced areas. - I am comfortable managing specific feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and special care instructions. Have questions or want to see if we’re a good match? Send me a message to schedule a free Meet & Greet! Online available.

About: I have always had a love for dogs and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I have two rescue dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of making your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have previously worked as a dog sitter for family, friends, and people in my neighborhood. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy spending time playing with dogs, taking them on walks, and making sure they get the care and attention they need. I will treat your dog like they are my own!! I’m a college student and currently don’t have a job so I have a flexible schedule. I’m generally available Monday Wednesday and Fridays before 11AM and after 130PM. Tuesday Thursdays I am available before 930AM and after 1PM. I am apart of a sorority, so I occasionally have events at different times throughout the week, but I’m very flexible and happy to communicate ahead of time to work around my schedule and your pets needs! I currently live in an apartment, so unfortunately I’m unable to bring dogs into my home. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs in their own home and am used to working with dogs both on lease and in a fenced in yard. I will always prioritize your pets safety and follow your instructions for walks, outdoor time, feeding, and routines. I’m happy to maintain your dogs normal routine and provide plenty of attention and care!
