Pet care experience

I can’t wait to meet your pup!

Hi! I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. When I was younger I used to have my own dog sitting business, and loved nothing more than spending time with dogs. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for dog care for many years. I also have had a dog in my family for the past 20 years. From puppies, to older senior dogs, I have had experience with them all. And I love all kinds of dogs. I am so excited to hopefully work with you and meet your pup!

Sam was the best with Kobe. We are from NC and we were in town for a family event and graduation. We couldn’t find anyone in NC to care for Kobe so we decided to look in Pittsburgh and came across and Sam and we are so glad we did. She cared for Kobe and sent us pictures. He even made a new friend, we would definitely book with Sam again.

Sam and Jake were amazing! They took excellent care of our dog, sent photo updates, and let us know how he was doing! Will definitely board with Sam in the future!

Sam was very good to my dog! She sent pictures and responded quickly. She was willing and able to keep my dog last minute and it was very appreciated! Thanks!

Schedule

I do work a full time job, but I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, right now and I am focusing on boarding dogs for weekends or long weekends, depending on your schedule. I would love to use my free time to spend time with your pups!
