Dog sitter & groomin that's a deal!

Hello, I have worked with dogs for 20 yrs ( 8 as a professional groomer) and would love to watch your dog in my home or visit them while you are a way so they can stretch their legs. I currently have 6 dogs ( 4 Littles & 2 medium) and a ferret of my own. I will groom/bath your dog for an additional fee at request. I am a stay at home mom so I will be home with your "fur-kid" 24/7 and treat them as one of my own. I have a fenced in yard and live in Bethel Park, Pa. I require all dogs to be on flea treatment and utd on shots. If flees are found you dog will be flea bathed at an extra charge of a minimum of $35 based on size and hair.

House Sitting • Jul 06, 2026

Elaine was fantastic. She not only managed to watch our house and pup, Mina, on short notice, but it was also during a holiday weekend. She was a fantastic communicator from the jump, asking a bunch of questions about Mina's habits, likes/dislikes, etc. I especially appreciated her open-communication when she had to manage a family emergency. She assured me that Mina was going to be taken care of and kept me updated along the way. I would highly recommend Elaine, and I (and Mina) are looking forward to booking her again.

House Sitting • Jul 04, 2025

It seemed like the dogs were good and she did an overall good job except, we paid the extra cost for her because she had the highest rating. I paid for House Sitting. On Saturday, her first day, She left the house at 8:45 and did not return until 4:45. That is 8 hours the dogs were left alone. I understand that the pet sitters can come and go, but we paid for House sitting and the dogs were left for 8 hours. I will never again book with Rover at this cost to leave my dogs 8 hours. Unacceptable.
