Linnea was very responsive and helpful when things did not go exactly to plan. One of my dogs is prone to accidents and she did a good job cleaning those up as they occurred. She also helped when one of my dogs was digging a hole under the fence. She was kind, responsive, and clearly enjoyed spending time with our dogs. She followed instructions well for their care and I can wholeheartedly recommend her for drop in appointments!

Julia did such an excellent job taking care of my kitties while I was away. She took the time to come meet them before starting the job and was always very thorough with sending me pictures and updates. I know that my cats were very well cared with her!

About: I grew up around dogs and cats from a young age, I had a golden retriever and terrier, as well as a tabby cat. While I don’t have any pets currently, I would love to help take care of others pets in my free time now. I am dependable and trustworthy, and will keep in constant communication with you. I speak Mandarin, Chinese, so we can communicate with Chinese if you’d like (我说普通话,可以用中文和你来往). I am currently flexible with my schedule and am open to taking on new pets. Please let me know at least one day in advance! I usually plan a quick short meet and greet (sometimes can be morning of) for you to show me where everything is. ***Please note for house sitting, I will not stay overnight at your house. I am happy to stay during the day. I will always keep you updated and in the loop about your pets! Patience and love will be shown to each pet, and they will be well taken care of.

Katie was amazing when she dog sits my border collie. He isn’t very social but he absolutely loved her from the minute they met. She’s dog sat for me for the entire weekend multiple times now, and every time I come home to a happy pup! She’s my go-to dog sitter now!

About: With over 9 years of dedicated pet care experience, I pride myself on going above and beyond for every furry friend entrusted to my care.

I currently have four dogs that range from two senior dogs (one with special care needs) to a lovely 3 year old pup to a 7 month old puppy that is fully trained by me and has been through training courses. I have a proven track record of handling various breeds and temperaments with patience, compassion, and expertise. Your pet's well-being and happiness are always my top priorities, and I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for them while you're away. As a part-time remote worker, I offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your pet's needs. My availability includes morning and midday walks as well as extended playtime and companionship during the day. With my at-home work setup, I can ensure frequent potty breaks and attention throughout the day. I prioritize open communication to coordinate the best schedule for both you and your pet, ensuring they receive the care and attention they deserve while you're away! Safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are at the forefront of my pet care philosophy, whether I'm caring for pets in my home or my client's home. In my own home, I maintain a secure and pet-friendly environment, free of hazards, and equipped with comfortable bedding, many, many toys, and enrichment activities. I adhere to strict cleanliness standards to ensure a healthy and hygienic space for all pets!

About: I became a full-time professional pet- and house-sitter in July 2021. I moved to Pittsburgh in 2001 and it remains my homebase where I spend about 50% of my time, but I also get many referrals to work in Ohio, Philadelphia, Maryland, and North Carolina. Since the majority of my time is spent sitting in the homes of others, I gave up my own residence a couple of years ago and became a nomad of sorts. The great thing about this for pet parents is that I'm never worried about stopping back to my home to check on anything, collect mail, deal with maintenance of any kind, etc - your home will actually 100% be my home for the duration of my stay! Prior to beginning pet care professionally, I had both cats and dogs growing up. I also pet-sit for friends regularly. I quickly make friends with most animals and I am especially known for winning over choosy pets who don't like many people or strangers. Many of my clients actually schedule their time away from home around my availability because of how bonded their pets become to me! I will do everything I can to make sure your furry friend is happy and comfortable on a little staycation of its own while you're away, so you can travel worry-free. A few notes about my rates: -The prices quoted here reflect standard care, e.g., staying overnight, offering 2-3 feedings, doing a morning/midday/night walk or potty break, scooping litter once per day, regular snuggles and some playtime. Before I confirm these rates for bookings, though, I will need to learn more about the needs of your pet(s). E.g., Are they on medications; if so, how are they administered and how often? How many potty breaks or walks will they need per day? How long can they be left alone? Do they sleep through the night? Is it common for them to have accidents in the home that need cleaned up? Is any grooming care needed? -In addition to the above, I will also aim to have a clear sense of what level of home care is desired. E.g., Collecting mail and keeping an eye for packages? Washing used linens? Sanitizing kitchen and bathroom before departure? Vacuuming, sweeping, or mopping? Trash or recycling days? Plant care? Any outdoor tasks (e.g., water plants or grass, snow removal)? -I welcome sitting opportunities of any length. If you're scheduling a trip of 10+ days, we can discuss a discounted daily rate. Pet care is my primary work, so it's the crux of my routine! I also do some freelance work remotely so pet care always fits well into my schedule any day of the week. It's easy and enjoyable for me to take breaks to ensure that furry friends receive regular walks and/or snuggles, plus they can hang with me if I'm working. For dogs who like going on adventures, I am always happy to take them on longer walk/hikes, as I'm an active and outdoorsy person. But I'm also quite a homebody in general, so I will definitely be a couch potato with pets that don't go out exploring too. I will do my best to keep their eating and bathroom break schedule on their normal routine while you are away. I will gladly snuggle them at night in bed if your pets are permitted on the furniture and can ensure observing any rules of the house in relation to where the pet can/can't access. I'm a tidy person who is known by my clients for high-quality care of both the pets and the home. In my college days, I worked as a hotel housekeeper and it taught me to be a neat freak. In general you can expect to find your place the way you left it if I sit for you! I send at least one check-in per day that includes photos to make sure you get a daily dose of cuteness and know that all is well! I can arrange for this check-in to occur at whatever time works best for you. I'm typically a speedy responder to other messages, too, though I do silence my phone while I sleep and occasionally during brief parts of the day, e.g., for meditation, yoga, or virtual meetings. Some clients are comfortable with their sitters having visitors, but I never expect nor assume that's the case and would certainly not bring anyone into your home without discussing the possibility in advance. It's completely fine if clients have a no-guest policy. Even when permitted, guests are uncommon for me, but may include my teen mentee of 5 years from Big Brothers Big Sisters or an occasional gal pal for a movie night. Some clients welcome sitters to eat perishables that will spoil while they're away, others encourage sitters to help themselves to any food in the house. I will never assume either, however, and there's no pressure. Unless I'm explicitly told otherwise, rest assured that the only consumable goods I may use are essentials like cooking oils, spices, and occasionally milk/creamer for my tea.

Samantha is the absolute best with my kitties - she’s the first person I message any time I’m going out of town. She always spends lots of quality time with the kitties & I appreciate how she cares for my house when I’m gone too (especially when the kitties make a mess). I can’t recommend her enough :)
