Dog Sitting McMurray

About: I've had a lot of experience with high energy dogs, and I currently have a 4-year old Siberian husky. I am happy to bring her to play if your dog wants an energy release or I can come solo! I also run with my husky in the mornings and would be happy to run with your dog if they are comfortable with other dogs! I work from home full time and have a pretty flexible schedule! Just let me know what time you need me to come and I'll block it in my calendar. I like to walk the dog for at least 1.5-3 miles depending on the energy level, but that's coming from a husky mom. I can adjust the distance as you see fit!

About: I have animal sat many different breeds of dogs to chickens and cats. I have dog sat since I was a teenager on my parents neighborhood. I am loyal, trust worthy, responsible. I am also a photographer so if you ever need updated photos of your pet in action I'm the girl to do it I work 11:00-6:30 during the school year as a kindergarten teacher in Mt. Lebanon and during the summer I'll work 10:00-5:00PM at the Mt. Lebanon High School. I am able to walk dogs, feed them and give them TLC in the morning and then when return home from my job. On the weekends I am able to be available all day. I care for pets in the clients home with the most respect, care, love, and trust. I make sure they are fed, brushed, walked, fed, and any other important parts of their routine. I will exercise them as needed and play with them

About: Animals have been a lifelong passion of mine. I have owned and cared for animals for many years and understand that pets are family members who deserve love, attention, and reliable care. My dedication, patience, and genuine love for animals make me someone pet owners can trust. As a member of our local Humane Society, I have gained valuable insight into animal behavior, safety, and the importance of compassionate care. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, feeding, playtime or a drop in visit, I am committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience. My goal is to give you a peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and capable hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing the loving care they deserve! I'm currently working full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to care for your fur baby. I am extremely responsible, dependable and attentive to your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing dependable care, affection, and attention while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and capable hands.

About: As a caregiver of humans, my number one asset for this job is patience. I am not easily startled or upset, and treat any accidents or change in plans as a reason to simply go with the flow. Having worked with medically complex newborns, colic babies, and overnight nanny shifts, I am well equipped to deal with a pet that might be anxious or jumpy because they miss their parent. I currently work as a nanny and doula, so my schedule fluctuates greatly. At times I may have multiple baby/mother clients, and at times I may only have one, and am seeking flexible caregiving work with animals to brighten my slower weeks. From my experience as a nanny and doula, I always prioritize safety, following caregiving instructions and bringing a calm energy to your home to make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I do not care for animals in my own home as my cat is happier being an only child. I offer drop ins and walks for cats and small/medium dogs. I have over five years experience working in other people’s homes with both animals and children, so I am very thorough and detail oriented, always remembering to shut doors behind me and keep things safely out of the reach of babies and animals. As a doula, I often enter people’s homes at a very vulnerable and chaotic time and so I am used to being a responsible source of stability as a caregiver.

“Kennedy was great! She checked in on our kitty while we were away for a weekend, and provided cute photos. Our cat, Leia, seemed to really like her and she doesn’t always warm up to strangers right away. It gave me peace of mine throughout our trip knowing that Leia was being taken care of well. We will definitely be booking Kennedy again.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life but my first job years ago in high school was at a veterinary hospital/ boarding. Because I was still in high school I was mainly in the kennels taking care of all the wonderful fur babies while their parents were out of town. Also, after informing the doctors that I was aspiring to become a vet, they allowed me to put on some scrubs and help out occasionally. I quickly realized that I was going to find a different way to care for animals 😂 Since then I have raised my own dogs and cared for animals of friends and family and have worked a few jobs at doggie daycares. I am an early riser because of my job so if your fur baby is too, they will fit right in! I work construction so I will be out for a portion of the day, but my wife works from home so her and our two pups will always be there to keep your baby company and make them feel right at home! At my house, no where is off limits for a furry friend. We can do anything to accommodate your fur babies to make sure they’re comfortable with their stay and you can have peace of mind that they will be happy and safe while you are away!

About: My partner Jack and I love caring for pets! Both of us have been caretakers for pets practically our whole lives, including senior pets and pets with special needs, in addition to small animals like rodents and birds. Whoever you need help with, we’re more than capable. We are so excited to get to know your pets. With us, your pets will get all the attention and exercise they need during your busy day. We are both very attentive to your pets needs and do our best to make them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. We know just how important your companion is to you, so safety is taken into consideration at all times. We keep dogs on leashes at all times when letting them go outside. I work as a barista at a coffee shop and Jack is an employee at Pitt. Together our schedules allow us to have at least 1 person home for most of the day. On rare occasions when neither of us are home, at most we are away for 3-4 hours. We have a large yard with a lead and 2 cats. Our house is moderately sized, with room for playing and relaxing. We are attentive to feeding schedules and potty breaks.

“Douglas was very positive and responsive. My cats, fish and my daughter’s hamster were well cared for him. I certainly recommend him and will book again.”

“Meredith is absolutely fantastic! Always got lots of pictures and communication and it was clear that our cat was getting as much attention and love as possible. We would definitely recommend Meredith to be your pet’s friend. ?”

“Cassie did an exceptional job of taking care of our two cats! And she played with the one who would come out (the other one hid, but we think in time he will come out:) Cassie talked to him for us and that was good for him and she filled his treat game:) We really are very happy for Cassie to be with Rover and to be our cat sitter!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom of two, so I truly understand the importance of trusting the person caring for your pup. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and I’m comfortable giving medication when needed. Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, a long hike, or some good old-fashioned cuddle time, I tailor each visit to your dog’s energy level and personality. My goal is always to keep tails wagging and pet parents worry-free. Pet care is naturally built into my daily life—I’m already walking, feeding, and loving on my two dogs every day. Adding extra walks, playtime, and check-ins for your pets fits seamlessly into my routine. I enjoy being active, so heading out for walks or hikes is something I look forward to, not something I “squeeze in.” Whether it’s weekdays or weekends, I make pet care a priority and keep a flexible schedule to meet the needs of both pets and their people. When pets are in my care, I treat them as if they were part of my family. In my own home, that means a safe, cozy environment, plenty of playtime, and regular walks to keep them happy and healthy. I keep routines consistent with what they’re used to—whether that’s mealtime schedules, medication, or favorite bedtime rituals. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet’s space and the family’s. I follow instructions carefully, ensure that food, water, and litter needs are met, and give each pet the level of attention and affection they’re comfortable with. Whether it’s a quick walk, a snuggle session, or a calm presence for a shy animal, I adapt to what each pet needs most.

About: I’ve taken care of my own cats and dogs since I was little. I played with them, walked the dogs when needed, fed them, cleaned out litters boxes or the yard. I’ve played with neighborhood pets too. I work at a hospital, nights. I work three days a week and my typical shift is 7pm to 7am. I get home, sleep for a couple hours, and then I get up. I can do pet care the moment I’m done with work or later in the afternoon. I have two cats personally. They are fed every morning when I wake up, and every evening my boyfriend comes to feed them while I go to work. They have dry food that they can graze on through the day, water bowls out in the kitchen, a clean litter box that is in my own room because that’s where they know. They go yearly to the vet for check ups and shots. And they are always given love.

“Marissa was AMAZING! Our senior dog loved her and she was so attentive and caring during her drop-in visits while we were out of town. Marissa is communicative and offered such a peace-of-mind while we were away. We would love to use Marissa again, and we know our pup will enjoy it too!”

I’ve experienced caring for small and big dogs, as well as caring for dogs of all ages. As a passionate animal lover, your pets will be in good hands with me. I currently work part-time as a server. This gives me plenty of time during the day throughout the week to play with and take care of your fur babies! I’m a big animal lover and looking to fill more of my time by doing something I’ll love. I will take care of your pets with TLC in your home environment and during our walks together. Their safety and care is of utmost importance to me.

About: I love furry friends of all kinds. While I grew up with cats, I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life and love pets of all kinds! I work a schedule different than most.
