Fenced yard! Next to a big park!

Pet care experience

I love dogs! I was a pet sitter in my 20s in San Francisco, taking care of parrots and a wide variety of dogs. We had a border collie mix for 13 years and a Shih tzu for 16 years so we are experienced with caring for senior dogs.

We lucked out finding Ellyn on short notice while in town. When she said welcome to “puppy paradise,” it was absolutely accurate with the fenced in yard and location right across the street to Frick Park. Our dog had an amazing day while we explored Pittsburgh’s museums. We can’t thank her enough for her careful and loving care!

Ellyn is wonderful! She's kind, caring, and a great communicator. She watched our two dogs for a week and sent lovely photos & updates every day. Our senior pup is often hesitant with meeting new people, but she went and lay beside Ellyn during our meet & greet. And Ellyn was so patient & loving with our younger pup, who had never been "away from home" before. I highly recommend Ellyn and look forward to her caring for our pups again :)

I have a fenced in yard with a dog door, so your dog can enjoy the outdoors. In addition theres a big and beautiful park across the street full of trails and a large off-leash area that your fur baby will love. Indoors, there are several dog beds and couches so your fur baby can make themselves comfortable after a fun day of play.
