Dog Sitting McMurray

About: I have taken care of dogs & cats of all sizes for friends and family for over ten years. My own dog is a 13 year old German Shorthair Pointer I’ve had since she was a puppy, so I know all about the joys and challenges that come with puppy’s & senior dogs alike. I also have extensive experience caring for larger breed dogs such as Irish Wolfhounds & Saint Bernards. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I’m currently working in a flexible schedule, so I have a ton of time to play with and care for your pet(s). I am available all day Monday & Tuesday (6am-10pm). I am also available Wednesday-Sunday anytime from 6am-11am and 3pm-10pm. I have a passion for caring for pets and my number one goal is to make sure your furry friend is happy, healthy, and safe in my care. I am able to provide engaging playtime indoors and outdoors or just companionship to lower energy pets. I am also comfortable administering topical & oral medications when taking care of your furry friends. I have a lot of experience with senior pets as well and am able to care for pets struggling with arthritis and/or incontinence.

About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them is truly something I love. Over the years, I’ve gained a lot of hands-on experience through privately dog sitting for friends, family, and repeat clients. From energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and care, I’m comfortable handling a wide range of personalities and needs. More recently, I’ve started working at a kennel, where I care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments every day. This has given me even more experience with feeding routines, exercise, administering basic care, and making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every dog like they’re my own — with plenty of attention, affection, and reliable care. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some playtime, or a calm and caring sitter, I’m here to help and make sure they’re happy and well taken care of! I currently maintain a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available most days for walks, drop-in visits, and playtime. This flexibility also enables me to accommodate a variety of routines and provide dependable, consistent care based on your dog’s specific needs. I prefer caring for dogs in their own home environment, where they feel most comfortable. I can come to you and maintain your dog’s normal routine, helping reduce stress and keep them happy.

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 been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years for family, friends, and neighbors. I provide dependable care and tailor to each pet’s needs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet like my own and always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands and having fun! I recently just graduated college and am home for the foreseeable future so I’m extremely flexible and can work around your schedule! I’m flexible during daytime hours and overnight shifts. I treat everybody’s home with the same respect I want my home to be treated with, I make sure to be diligent about rules and expectations with the animals, and I will be sure to send messages and pictures to the owner.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since i was little. Not only have i learned responsibilities but my deep love and compassion for animals grows every day! I have a bulldog of my own and i couldn’t imagine a life without him. I’m working almost full time but i can make time most weekdays to stop and take care of your pets needs. Mostly day time availability I cannot use my home because of my fur baby but i would be willing to talk about possibilities of taking care of your pet overnight at your house. Just leave me a list and we can have a meet and greet and talk about all the details.

About: Hi! I’m Sofia, a biology student at the University of Pittsburgh and a nurse aide at Concordia, where being dependable, attentive, and responsible is part of my everyday job. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years. I regularly help family, friends, and neighbors with walking and pet care, and I’ve helped raise and train my grandma’s 60-pound dog since she was a puppy. I also walk my own energetic 70-pound dog every day, so I’m comfortable with large, active breeds. I love staying active and enjoy running, so if your dog enjoys longer walks or jogging, I’d be happy to keep them exercised. I understand that every dog has different needs and will always follow your care instructions to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Because I work as a nurse aide from 3–11 p.m., I’m available for morning and early afternoon walks and drop-in visits. I pride myself on being punctual, reliable, and treating every pet like my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog! I work at Concordia nursing home as a nurse aide 3-11 almost every day. I am completely free early mornings until before my work. I have a fenced in yard at my home and a one year old puppy. She is good with kids and other dogs and never aggressive.

“Lindsey was kind and communicative the whole time I was away, and as an added bonus, my nervous kitty that never comes out for anyone loved her!”

“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’ve loved animals my whole life and have hands-on experience raising and caring for dogs. When I was 13, I helped raise a Havanese–Mini Poodle puppy, which gave me experience with early training, routines, and understanding puppy behavior. I also have an 8-year-old Havanese at home, so I’m very familiar with daily care, exercise needs, and providing lots of love and attention. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive and treat every dog like my own. I’m comfortable with puppy care (including basic training, potty routines, and high-energy play) as well as caring for older dogs who may need a gentler, more patient approach. I’m also reliable, communicative, and will always keep you updated so you feel confident your dog is in good hands. Pet care fits really well into my routine as a college student. I have a flexible schedule and build my days around classes, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout the day. I’m usually available in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I love getting outside and staying active—so dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy fitting into my day. I’m also very reliable and good with time management, so I make sure every pet gets consistent care, attention, and updates. I treat every pet like they’re my own and try to keep their routine as normal as possible. In your home, I’ll follow feeding schedules, walks, and anything specific you want so your pet feels comfortable and safe. I make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and exercise, and I’m good with both energetic puppies and older dogs who need a calmer approach. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures so you know they’re happy and taken care of!

About: I have a 5 year old goodledoodle that I take care of when my parents are away. I also have been watching me neighbors dogs since I was 12. I have had to feed and walk their pets. I also love cats so I would be interested in watching them as well. I also spend a lot of time with my boyfriends dogs. I am currently home from college for the summer so I will be able to stop in and play with and walk your pets whenever you need me to. I can easily crate your dog if you need me too. I can also watch them run around in the backyard if there is a fence. If not I will keep them on a leash at all times.

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.

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.

About: I have had animals all my life. I have also worked with trainers and have hands on experience. I rode horses competitively for many years so am comfortable around any animal. At my childhood home I have a German Shepard and a Shih Tzu, along with two cats. In my own home I have two cats and a dog. Not at my home but I do have a horse! Have cared for multiple horses over the years along with barn work. I am currently a nanny about to start massage school in the summer! I also provide pet care of my employers. I have evening and weekend availability. I’ve worked with small and big dogs. I don’t think I’ve ever met an animal that hasn’t liked me. I’m very patient and trustworthy. I also know how to properly interact with cats.

“Kennedy is very communicative. Indi likes her a lot! Excited for her to keep helping with watching her this summer!”

About: I have hands on experience caring for both puppies and older dogs. I currently help raise and train our own puppies, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines, potty training, crate training, and basic commands. I’ve also pet sat for older dogs and understand the importance of patience, comfort, and keeping their routine consistent so they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I genuinely love being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Making sure they get plenty of attention, care, and a calm, loving environment while you’re gone 🤍🐾 Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a full-time nanny during the weekdays, typically finishing in the mid afternoon, and I’m often already in homes with pets as part of my nanny work. I also have my own puppy, so caring for animals is a daily part of my life. I’m used to managing a busy but flexible routine, so I’m able to fit pet care in consistently and reliably around my nanny schedule and personal responsibilities. In clients’ homes, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their normal environment. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication (if needed), and any specific house rules. I make sure to keep things clean and consistent so pets feel secure while their owners are away. For dogs, I prioritize walks, playtime, and structure so they stay happy and exercised. For cats, I focus on a calm presence, litter box maintenance, feeding, and giving attention based on their personality and comfort level. If a pet were ever in my home, they would be treated like part of the family - with a calm, safe space, lots of attention, and a routine that keeps them comfortable and stress-free 🤍🐾

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. Because I work nights and weekends - I have some extra time during the day for your furry friends. So while you are busy at your 9-5 you can trust that your pets are taken care of and ready for you to be home :) I am detail oriented and will worry about your pet as if they are my own. I follow directions to a T and will be sure to take good care of your fur family!
