Dog Walking in Lower Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh, PA

“I don't even know where to begin... Having just moved back to the Pgh area, I wasn't sure who to trust in taking care of my pup. Dmitra has provided me with the reassurance that she will take great care of Luna and give her lots of love when I am not around. Not only was she highly recommended but we are so happy to call her our friend!!!”

About: TLDR: I am animal-obsessed and will take good care of your babies! I am located in Central Lawrenceville and work from home. I am a cat-mom to Galax (9) and Zuzu (5) and have cared for many cats and dogs through Rover over the past two years. I also have experience watching friends dogs and cats over the past 9 years, and worked at a doggy day care for a short time where I helped care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and abilities. Now, I work from home which gives my cats and I time to bond and play. I am also able to notice any slight change in behavior, which is crucial to being a cat owner as most cats hide sickness very well. I look forward to giving your babies attention and caring for them while you're away and fully understand that it can be nerve-wracking to leave them. Ultimately, it's my goal to understand your pets boundaries and provide the best care possible given their needs. As long as I have enough prep time and clear instructions, I can commit to visiting your animal up to two times a day or as needed. I am particular with who cares for my cats when I am out of town, and expect the people who I will Rover for to be the same way. I always walk the caretakers through detailed instructions of how the cats should be cared for and emphasize that they need much more than just someone to feed them. I also understand that every animal is different and it’s important to respect their boundaries.

“J.M. was great with my dog Grits. They came on time, gave a thorough report, and sent some cute proof of life pictures that brightened up my day at work. Thank you J.M.!”

“Connor has been an amazing walker for us! He always sends the cutest pictures, and he shows up on time to walk our dog. We really appreciate his kindness and patience.”

About: I have always had dogs growing up, and I have been watching other dogs for many years. I work with both big and small dogs. I work Monday through Friday 9-5 but i am available before and after work as well as weekends. I am also available Wednesdays all day I believe in taking things slow and earning trust. Animals deserve to be respected in their homes, and I think this is key to good vibes

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for dogs comes naturally to me. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a routine, or just keeping your dog company while you're away, I offer dependable, attentive care with plenty of affection. I treat every dog like my own and aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're gone. I just graduated from Auburn University, and have just moved to Pittsburgh from Memphis! My availability is extremely open and I am willing to work days, nights, weekends, or whatever is needed. At the moment, the fence in my backyard is undergoing repairs, so I’m not offering pet care in my home right now. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in their own environment, where they feel most at ease. Working in your home allows me to stick closely to your pet’s routine and provide one-on-one attention in a space that’s familiar and comfortable for them. I’m reliable, respectful of your space, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.

About: I've cared for various kinds of pets over my whole life and at one point was able to become an AKC trained dog trainer! I've since changed jobs to a patient sitter at a nearby hospital and miss the new animals being in my life. I'd love to get a chance to meet your pets and help care for them! I work 3 inconsistent days from either 630am-pm or 630pm-am throughout the week but can make changes as needed to work up to 3 days a week for a client outside of that! I feel that all pets have a wide range of personalities and needs but the important thing is to work with them to achieve their physical and emotional needs! I have 2 cats with vastly different attitudes and I make sure to tailor my care for them in specific ways like being a safety person for my cat while she's eating or training my partners cat to ask for attention and treats more politely. When it comes to dogs I have a training in positive reinforcement and dog behaviors and will try to engage with breed specific enrichment on top of whatever schedule the pet parents have for their dog.

About: I LOVE playing and running around with dogs and am happy to take your dog on long walks or on a romp in the dog park. I'm currently on sabbatical, so I have lots of free time to spend with your pets... and I will because I miss my pet time! My husband is allergic, so Rover is how I get to spend time with furry friends. For dogs, I keep an eye out for dangerous situations when on walks with dogs and ensure that we give a wide berth to any possible threats. For cats, I make sure that I respect their boundaries and don't stress them out as we're getting to know each other. I am also very careful when entering and leaving to ensure they don't escape.

About: I've taken care of dogs (either my own or pet-sitting) for the past 15 years. I have had many friends and family members rely on me to keep their pets fed, walked, played with, and loved while they are out! I also have experience with senior dogs, giving medication etc. My work schedule is fairly flexible, so it's super easy for me to fit pet care into my daily/weekly routines! I keep my home clean and safe for pups to venture around. I will send lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and well taken care of. I have a fairly flexible full time job where I am able to work from home as needed. Additionally, when I need to be in person it is usually only for a few hours maximum. So I have plenty of time to be playing with and caring for your pups! I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of great spots for fur babies to use the bathroom and get their exercise in! I spend a lot of time after initial drop off trying to make your pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible! I'll also send you lots of pictures to alleviate some of the stress of leaving your pup with someone else. I spend a lot of time giving the pets I care for the same love and attention they would receive at home.

“Chloe has been incredibly reliable, helpful, and excellent at communicating! I'm so grateful that she's been available to walk our dog Ace while my partner and I are away at work. Ace absolutely loves Chloe, and we love that he gets great walks and attention when we're away!”

“Shannon has walked bear 2 times now! Despite the snowy cold weather for the first walk, Shannon was still willing to walk bear, which I really appreciate! Took photos and followed all the instructions I gave about giving treats! Thank you!!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, growing up with pups of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From playful puppies to senior dogs, I’ve learned how to provide the care, patience, and love each dog deserves. I’m now a proud dog mom myself, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll, some playtime, or extra snuggles, I’ll treat your dog like my own. I have a flexible schedule, am extremely detail oriented, and am excited to help you with your pet care needs! I currently work completely remote with a flexible schedule and am happy to do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I am an early bird and can also come to check on your pup later at night if needed. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m always attentive on walks, keeping a close eye on surroundings and using secure leashes and harnesses to ensure your pup stays safe. I also always make sure to take the time to ensure your dog is comfortable with me before taking them out.
