“My dog Shep stayed for the very first time at Margaret's house. He had never been to a dog sitter before and I was a nervous pet owner leaving him. Peg put me at ease and sent photos and video all weekend long! She took good care of my fur baby. I plan to rebook for our family vacation this summer. ”
“Megan was wonderful. She treated Louie like her own family pet. I felt comfortable and confident that he was happy and well care of better than well. She communicated with me and made the idea of leaving my boy for so many days less stressful.”
“Ashley is the absolute best!! She was able to take our very needy Great Pyrenees on fairly short notice and he was treated like a king! She is so knowledgeable about dogs and was able to handle everything perfectly! We will definitely be bringing Mr Ursa back here anytime we are going out of town! ?”
“Bryce was amazing and kept me up to date with how my pup was doing during her visit! She was also super flexible and willing to work with me when I had to change my pick up/drop off times which was super appreciated! I know my pup had an amazing time with her and I will definitely be booking with Bryce again :)”
“Jennifer was great with our dog Molly when we went away over the weekend! She kept us updated with pictures and messages and took her for lots of walks. Thanks for taking such good care of her!”
“My husband and I had to go out of town for his work. Our boy Fenrir needed to be watched seeing we couldn't take him. We are very pleased. After the meet and greet I felt comfortable leaving Fenrir. He had so much fun and was well taken care of. We most definitely were able to have a good time and not have to worry about Fenrir. We most definitely will be booking again. If we could give more than 5 stars we would.”

We thank you so much and we will only have you from now on. We recommend Elaine for your pet needs, price is nice, she is great. See you in November 🥰 Tim, Sarah, Lily and Diesel”
“Maureen was welcoming, friendly, and very accommodating to my little dachsund's idiosyncrasies! She sent me updates to ease my mind and ensure a worry-free vacation. I would not hesitate to have her take care of my girls in the future. I highly recommend Maureen!”
About: I have experience pet sitting dogs for up to a week at a time as well as experience with my own dog Buster who is a golden retriever and cocker spaniel mix. I currently work full-time in the afternoon and evening. I collaborate with my mom who works in the mornings so that your dog would only be alone for up to four hours at a time. I keep the rules that you set for your pet when they stay at my home. When we go outside, I have an electric fence as well as a good size neighborhood to walk with your dog.
“Stephanie took great care of our big guy! She kept us updated with pics and videos and made sure he felt right at home! Definitely will be using her again as well as recommending her to everyone I know!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience. I’ve fostered dogs and cats of all ages through Humane Animal Rescue in Pittsburgh, which taught me how to care for pets with unique needs and personalities. I’ve been pet sitting for many years and have had my own pets throughout my life, so I know how important it is to provide reliable and loving care. I recently graduated from Pitt and have a completely open and flexible schedule right now. I’m focusing on doing something I truly enjoy spending time with animals while I look for my next job. This means I can fully adapt to your pet’s daily routine, whether it’s daycare, walks, or overnight stays. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can play safely, as well as a friendly dog who can keep your pup company if you’d like. I can easily crate your dog if needed and love working on basic commands to keep pets engaged and happy. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat their pets and space with the same respect and care as I would my own.
“Lexus is still sleeping from her fun filled weekend with her new friends. Elicia and her family were great with Lexus, very patient and understanding. Lex has a bit of separation anxiety and took some time to warm up, Elicia saw it through and helped my girl feel right at home. This booking was incredibly short notice like 12 hours notice and they did not hesitate to take my bestie in and watch her for the weekend. This is why I love Rover, great people, great service and most importantly the best fur baby care. 10/10 highly recommend Elicia and fam. I will be setting up playdates so Lexus can work on her socializing and tiny human interactions. Thanks Elicia, you are the best!”

“First time using a pet sitter. Danielle and her family were so kind and attentive to our dog. She was definitely tired when she came home but not as tired as I expected which to me meant she was relaxed and able to rest in their home. Thank you for a great first experience.”
“Mary was the best sitter for my dog. I knew the moment I met her that she was kind & someone who loves animals. Highly recommend her when you want someone you can trust & feel comfortable with caring for your pet child. I was gone for 5 days & everything went great.”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Daisey. She sent pictures, answered my questions, and overall I believe my Daisey felt relaxed and was taken good care of, which is what matters. I have no complaints or issues.”
