Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal rescuer turned pet sitter
I'm a Carnegie Mellon alumni and Floridian transplant who decided to stay and settle in the Burgh. I've volunteered with animals since I was 14, and up until a year ago, I was running my own rescue. I began pet sitting to help pay vet bills for the strays I took in. I have specialized largely in neonatal and senior care, including administering medicine, facilitating special diets, and offering personalized enrichment (including socialization for ferals). I also fed, rehabilitated, vaccinated, and spayed street dogs while living in Mexico.

While in a client's home, I'm careful to follow all provided instructions closely and always ask for clarification if I'm unsure. Also, I'm happy to assist with small home tasks like bringing in the mail or watering your plants as needed.
Ratings and reviews
Everything went great! Autumn was caring and attentive to our cats, and was excellent at communicating with us. Would definitely book again!
Autumn is amazing. My partner and I recently relocated to Pittsburgh with a trip previously planned for overseas. I was worried it would be difficult to find someone to watch our two kids (dogs) for two weeks, but Autumn was there for the rescue. She took amazing care of Butters our senior pup with limited mobility, as well as our younger pup Maeve. Autumn provided updates with photos to make sure that we were well informed while away. She also would reach out to clarify the laundry list of things they need, which I find comforting to know that she is going to make sure everything is going perfect. Our place was clean when we returned and everything looked just as we left it. I will be reaching out to Autumn in the future and recommend her to any parent.
Elsa enjoyed her time with Autumn! She sent a tone of updates and photos during her stay. I would recommend Autumn and hope to use her again soon!
Autumn did an awesome job staying at my house watching Mack and Aries while I was out of town. She followed the detailed instructions and I came home to happy pups and the house was in good condition. I def recommend her and would utilize her again for house sitting.
Autumn was amazing! She sat our older dog in our home, and while we have a fenced in yard she took her for daily walks and our dogs level of mobility improved as a result. She went above and beyond the necessary and we will use her again in a heartbeat
Autumn was so responsive and took our request last minute the day of. She watched our puppy Millie while we were away for a wedding. Millie had the best time with her and was cuddled up and right at home. We definitely recommend Autumn

Schedule
I work from home, and I plan my schedule around the animals in my life. I'm usually able to adapt my weekly responsibilities around whatever is needed for each household.
