Dog Sitting Millvale

“Emma truly was incredible. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of our two WILD doggos while we were away. Our big dog is very anxious and she did great dealing with his behaviors. If she can take care of our two crazy rescue dogs, I am sure she will also do great with all dogs! So happy we found Emma. :) Highly recommend!”

About: Hi my name is Julia, I am 25 years old living in Pittsburgh, PA. For all 25 years I have lived, I have been surrounded by animals. I grew up with three dogs, who I care for deeply. We also had a neighborhood cat who I really consider a part of the family! I have spent countless time caring for the pets of family members, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and even my hairdresser! I can confidently say that I have formed great bonds and a sense of trust with all pets I have watched! This care ranges from cats to dogs, senior to puppies (currently). I truly love animals and constantly want to be surrounded by them. Being a 25 year old in a city away from your family and pets can be tough, so I hope that this opportunity can help me while I await having my own cat one day (hopefully soon!) I currently work full-time, but I work primarily from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I typically go into the office just one day per week, and if I need to be there more often, it's usually only for a half day. My schedule can vary depending on work needs, but I have the flexibility to accommodate pet care throughout the day and will always communicate my availability clearly. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely and keep their schedule as consistent as possible. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals, and lots of love. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I always prioritize a safe, stress-free environment. I also believe communication is key. I'll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have been dog and cat sitting for 5 years now. Making sure they are happy and healthy is my number one priority, and getting to play with them is fun for me! I work 9-5 during the week, but would be happy to watch animals during the week as well as the weekends! Whatever works best for the pet! I want to make sure the cats and dogs feel as comfortable as possible. I want to keep with their normal routine and make sure they are happy and healthy.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and truly enjoy spending time with pups of all sizes. Friends and family often rely on me to walk, feed, and care for their dogs, and I always treat them like my own. I am currently a graduate student at Duquesne university. My weekdays are pretty busy between 10-3 but I have plenty of availability in the morning and late afternoons for drop ins and walks. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your instructions closely, provide lots of playtime, and always prioritize their well-being.

About: I've watched several neighbors pets when they left out of town and they've relied on me countless times again. Also, if your animal is stressed I will stay with them as long as you approve. Animals are a way of my life. I've had so many growing up. I am working full time in Moon but I can stop and check or walk animals after 4:30pm and any time on weekends. If you prefere someone to stay we can arrange my schedule to work for that just give me plenty of notice. I live in millvale there are parks all around and I'm close to many other safe parks in shaler. I live with my mom and sister and they're big pet people.

“Emma is great. She even earned the trust of my shy cat. Really felt at ease while we're were away on vacation knowing our babies were in good hands.”

About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

About: I have experience with several animal species, either mines or from family members. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, small animals like hamsters, farm animals, insects, etc. I do have a flexible schedule, so I have flexibility to take care of animals in different places and times as convenient for the schedule I have a fenced yard for the pet's convenience, just for potty time. I can also walk pets around. Just indicate what you want at every place

“My husband and I had just moved and we were very nervous about leaving our cat Rue home for a wedding! We found Abigail and she was AMAZING!! She sends the most detailed updates, and we could tell how much she cared. It made us feel so much better knowing our girl was in the best hands. Would highly recommend Abigail to anyone! 🤍”

“Katelyn helped me tremendously when my initial sitter plans feel through. Despite the short turn around, she took the time for a meet & greet, and my dogs really took a liking to her! She sent updates for each visit, letting me know how they were doing. Would absolutely recommend!”

About: I grew up with cats, dogs and fish. As an adult I’ve personally cared for 1 large dog (Rottweiler/Pitbull/Labrador) and 2 cats. The dog was a troubled rescue that I trained and then found a permanent home. I help with my mother's aging Cocker Spaniel and share in the care of my partner's 3 cats. I run an eBay store, Door Dash on an ADV160, tend to Duolingo’s headquarter’s plants. My schedule is very flexible. When hired for house sitting I turn off my availability for drop-ins and walks. I live with 3 cats at the moment, black, white and grey. It’s like dancing to a meowing grey scale. They are spoiled, but just enough.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have always loved being around animals. I currently have a cat of my own and also volunteered at the Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh for a year, where I gained experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I’m very patient, gentle, and understanding, and I truly enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I work four days a week and typically finish around 5:00 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the evenings during the week. I also have open availability on weekends and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I’m reliable, responsible, and will make sure your pet gets the attention, care, exercise, and companionship they need while your’e away. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient and attentive and take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and treat your home and your pet with the same respect I would want for my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and dependable hands.

“Richard did an incredible job. Showed up for daily visits with our pets and sent photos and report cards on every visit. Would definitely use again and recommend his services.”

“Kaitlyn was a true professional. Not only does she have a way with animals, but she kept my house in tip top condition. Cat poop removed, no litter on the floor. Cat dining area clean, with no stinky cans! She can be trusted to care for your animals and redirect your home. I will definitely use Kaitlyn again! Did I mention I got several pics a day of my fur babies?”

About: I take pride in making sure animals not only have their basic needs met but also can get the socialization and fun time they need (whether we are actively playing or sitting quietly together). My experience includes: - Dog care (bathroom breaks, feeding, puppy care, playing together, sitting together) - Feline care (refilling wet or dry food, refilling water, brushing coats, playing, sitting and spending time together) - Poultry care (including measuring and distributing feed, refilling water, cleaning coops, giving baths, general checks for infected feet or other ailments) - Equine care (including measuring and distributing feed, refilling water, refilling troughs, bathing, brushing, and hair braiding) - Medication administration (pills and liquid syringe orally) - Taking lots of update pictures of your friend to send to you! I am a contract filmmaker that does gig work, so if my profile is up and active I am available for your pet sitting needs! I am available for hire most days of the week, including weekends, so that you can travel and do what you need knowing your friend is comfortable at home and in good hands. Safety is the number one priority for myself and your friend and will be taken as upmost importance at all times. I understand that each animal has their own unique personality and lifestyle-- I make sure to carefully observe their behaviors and tendencies when providing care you need for them in order to keep them happy and comfortable. Please feel free to ask me questions at any time.

“Ericka was amazing - we had a flight delay and no one to help care for Archie. With only 3 hours notice she was able to stop by! Thank you so much Ericka!!”

About: I have been a volunteer foster at Centre County Paws for 8 years. I have fostered 8 week old puppies to 13 year old senior dogs. I have seen it all: separation anxiety, severe malnutrition, high energy, resource guarding, dog aggression, etc. Your dogs are my top priority and I want to keep their routines consistent as possible. I am an on-campus student at University of Pittsburgh with an accessible car. My last class on Fridays ends at 12, so my weekends and Fridays are mostly open for overnight stays. I am flexible for dog walking in mornings, evenings, and some afternoons during the week. I have finicky dogs, so I understand providing for a dog with specific needs. I can jog, play fetch, snuggle, and any type of quality time your dog needs. I will spend lots of time with your cats, cuddling and playing with toys are my favorite activities!

“Kaitlyn was an amazing pet sitter for our 120 pound great pyr/ GSD mix! While our dog can be a bit tough meeting new people, Kaitlyn dove right in and provided regular check ins, potty breaks, and playtime for our boy. Would highly recommend!”
