About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have a sweet three-year-old chihuahua mix, and I truly enjoy meeting and bonding with new dogs. I work from home full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, walks, and play throughout the day. I live on Pittsburgh’s Northside with a small, secure fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor fun. Since I work from home full time, I can give your pet plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a small fenced-in yard in Pittsburgh’s Northside for safe outdoor breaks, plus I love getting out for longer walks with my dog, at least once a day. Pet care is part of my daily routine, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like family. They’re welcome to relax on the furniture, nap on the couch, or sunbathe on the deck. I stick to their regular routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to help them feel comfortable and at home. I also have a baby gate to limit access to stairs for small dogs when needed. Since I work from home, I’m always nearby to give them the attention, care, and love they deserve.

“Michael and Maria were wonderful with taking care of our pug at their place. We were visiting Pittsburgh and needed to find a sitter to take care of our pug while we were out for a bit. Communication was excellent, responsive, and the status updates during our pug’s care was appreciated. Our pug has separation anxiety, but Maria was able to calm her down faster than the other sitters we have used. I could tell by comparing time stamps of the care text updates. We felt comfortable with Michael and Maria, and our pug came back to us very calm. We would book again if back in town. Thank you!”


“These two were great on both occasions with my boy. They were able to meet him where he is at with his special needs (slow to trust) and provide patient introductions. We are booked for another day of daycare and will continue to book with them.”


“Booked last minute with Annie and I’m so thankful for her! We were were able to do all the site seeing knowing our doggo was having fun! Thank you so much!”


“Amy was great with our Lucy! Super attentive to her needs and kept us updated with the cutest pics! Will definitely be booking with her again.”


“Always, Milo had a wonderful time. The care & love given to him when he is with Brett & Nelia & family puts our minds totally at ease when he stays. I highly recommend them. They are tge best!”


About: I am excited to meet your babies! Although I'm new to the Pittsburgh area, I have been taking care of pets my entire life. I'm currently a Stay At Home Mom to 2 kids, 2 pups, and a turtle; formerly a Shift Supervisor at a Doggy Daycare in Erie, CO. Bonus if your pet is okay around kids- I will be far more flexible to work with your schedule, and they will get EXTRA attention at no additional cost 😉 I have a reliable vehicle and I am K-9 CPR certified. I have Vet assistant experience, so I can administer oral medication for both dogs and cats, topical medications, and subcutaneous injections (including insulin). Does your pet love extra attention and play time with gentle children? My weekday late morning and afternoon drop ins would be perfect- my 4 Year old son is a cat whisperer in training, and cares/loves for our dog at home and is so excited to join mommy at work 🥰 My goal is to keep your pet safe, healthy, and happy to the best of my ability with the resources I'm given. I will strive to keep them comfortable with my presence (even if that means giving them space when they need it 😉)

“Vidhi was great with my disabled dog,and was able to accommodate us last minute when I needed unexpected emergency repairs on my apartment. She is very sweet and send many updates a pictures!”


About: I brought our two cats, Chili and Lok-Lok, all the way from China, but I grew up with dogs in my family and love both. I’ve taken care of my family’s and friends’ dogs and I heard about this app so I thought it might be fun to give it a try. Whenever I get called on to dog-sit for my friend here in Pittsburgh I like to go to the dog parks near the South Side river or jog along with them, rain or snow, and socialize with other dogs. Looking forward to meeting yours! I’m a PhD student at the University of Pittsburgh so summer and winter breaks are relatively free, and usually I’m only “working” 2-3 half days per week. I have to do a lot of reading and thinking so getting out of the house is a good way to take a break and process. I have a fenced yard where I do some gardening and let our cats out every day to chase bugs and birds. My friends have stayed over with their dogs and I just move the cats to the second floor and keep them there while the dogs take the first and the yard.

About: When it comes to pet sitting, my extensive experience and deep love for dogs truly set me apart. I've been around dogs since I was a baby and have been taking care of them for over 15 years. This lifelong familiarity with dogs has given me a strong understanding of their needs and behaviors. In addition to my experience, I have special skills in both training puppies and providing care for senior dogs. I am well-versed in the unique requirements of each life stage, ensuring that your pet receives the appropriate attention and care. Currently, I have a 1.5-year-old sweet Bernedoodle who is well-socialized and loves both cats and dogs. This personal experience further enhances my ability to provide a loving and comfortable environment for your pets. Whether it's playtime, training, or senior care, I am dedicated to offering the best possible care for your furry family members. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day starts with dedicated time for feeding, walking, and playing with my dog, ensuring they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need. Throughout the day, I incorporate short training sessions and regular bathroom breaks to maintain a structured schedule. In addition to daily care, my weekly routine includes more extensive activities such as grooming, longer outdoor adventures, and socialization opportunities with other pets. I make sure to set aside time for veterinary visits and any necessary health check-ups. Having a consistent routine not only keeps my own dog happy and healthy but also ensures that I am always prepared to provide top-notch care for other pets as well. My experience with my Bernedoodle has taught me the importance of maintaining a balanced and enriching routine, which I apply to all the pets I care for. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment where they feel comfortable and loved. My home is pet-friendly, with plenty of space for them to play and relax. I ensure that each pet has their own designated area with their bed, toys, and food/water bowls. Regular walks, playtime, and training sessions are part of the daily routine, along with lots of affection and attention. I also keep a close eye on their health and well-being, making sure they are happy and stress-free. When providing care in a client’s home, I strive to maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize any disruption. I follow the feeding schedule, walk times, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I spend quality time with the pets, ensuring they get enough exercise, play, and companionship. I am also attentive to the home's security and cleanliness, treating it with the utmost respect. Whether it's administering medication, handling special dietary needs, or providing extra cuddles, I make sure every pet receives personalized and loving care.

A loving pet parent and excellent educator, no one would ever go wrong in entrusting their furry loved ones to his care.”
