Dog Walking North Shore

“Nikki was our best rover booking yet!!! She came over three times this week for lunchtime walks. She was super attentive and even gave us some recommendations on how to keep him entertained. Nikki is very knowledgeable and caring, especially with little puppies. Would highly recommend booking her.”

About: I’ve been a dog person my whole life, from growing up with Winnie and Hairdo to caring for my soul dog Cici (Khaleesi) for nearly 14 years. I lost my sweet girl in July and now I have a whole lot of love to give without anywhere to put it. 🥹 Your pup will be treated like royalty with plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention... just the way Queen Cici demanded. 👑 I work from home, so my schedule is flexible with plenty of time to give your pup attention between meetings and emails. My day job is in social media so you can guarantee to receive Instagram-worthy photo pupdates while your dog is with me. I’m super active and love a long northside sniff walk. I’m often available for early mornings, lunchtime visits, and late evenings. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and needs. My home is set up really well for dogs, with an almost fully fenced-in backyard and a covered deck for relaxing outside. I’m on a quiet street in East Allegheny, with cute spots around for treats like Garden Cafe and ACB. My apartment is on the second floor of a house, so there are stairs to get in and two steps inside the apartment as well.

“Danielle has a great rapport with pets and their humans! I appreciate how responsive she is. The photo updates help with my separation anxiety :)”

“Ashley is awesome! She’s super responsive to texts and flexible. She takes care of Shiloh like her own hound dogs, and he looks forward to her every time. Couldn’t recommend her enough!!”

About: I've had hands-on experience caring for animals at different points throughout my life, primarily helping friends and family with their pets. My experience includes caring for, helping raise, and working on basic training with dogs and cats. I've also rescued and raised a baby mouse, which taught me just how much patience, attentiveness, and compassion even the smallest animals need. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand how important it is to know your companion is safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm comfortable with feeding, fresh water, walks, play and enrichment, litter care, companionship, and following an animal's established routine and care instructions. I respect that every animal has their own personality, boundaries, and way of communicating. Some want lots of interaction and affection, while others feel safest when given space and allowed to approach on their own terms. I pay attention to those cues rather than forcing interaction. I'm dependable, attentive to detail, and respectful of both the animals in my care and the homes I'm trusted to enter. My goal is to give your pet compassionate, individualized care while giving you peace of mind when you can't be there. I work a rotating schedule which gives me multiple weekdays and weekends off throughout the month. On my days off, I can offer more flexible availability for walks, visits, companionship, and house sitting. I keep my Rover availability updated so pet parents can see when I'm available, and I value clear communication when coordinating care. I understand that caring for someone's pet also means being trusted with their home. I take that responsibility seriously and will respect your space, privacy, household rules, and pet-care instructions. I pay attention to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, routines, and anything else needed to keep your pet safe. I also believe trust should be built with the animal. I'll allow your pet to become comfortable with me at their own pace rather than forcing interaction, while staying attentive to changes in their behavior or needs. Clear communication with pet parents is important to me, and I'm happy to provide updates while you're away.

About: I have had dogs all of my life that were all gotten while they were puppies. Have taught so many fun tricks that I can pass to your best friend too. I’m currently available at all hours to take care of your best friend(s). Though I am active my trainings and games usually keep me busy for a maximum of two hours. I have a nice and safe apartment with easy access to outside and a quick walk to Point State Park will give them all the grass they could ever dream of.

“Alexander helped me out when I found myself in a pinch at the last minute. He walked my dog twice a day for multiple days. He was punctual and communicative via the app. I will definitely reach out to him in the future.”

“Emily was our long term walker for around 8 months. She was always on time, formed a bond with our pup, and went above and beyond to take him on long walks! She’s also great on overnight visits, and made sure our pup felt safe in an unfamiliar environment. Her communication is great, and we highly recommend her to care for your pet!”

About: Hello there, I am a certified Veterinary technician, I have been in wildlife and small animal care for the past 14 years while dog sitting on the side. I am new to the Pittsburgh area and looking to find new clients! My previous experience includes zookeeping and wildlife rehabilitation in the Boston area for 7 years and then working for a professional dog sitting/hiking company in Medford MA for another 5 years. I moved to Pittsburgh to get my CVT (Certified Veterinary Technician license) in 2024, and now work at a lovely little small animal clinic. I am well versed in animals with complex medication/therapy needs, such as insulin administration and exacting medication timing requirements. I am also very experienced with exotics, particularly birds. I work full time Monday-Friday so I am primarily seeking weekend and holiday pet-sitting arrangements. I am also happy to work in drop in cat care around this type of schedule as well. I cannot currently offer in my own home pet care due to landlord request, but I have been dog/cat/house sitting in clients homes for 14 years and am experienced with maintaining specific pet routines and training schedules. I have a leave no trace policy when it comes to other peoples homes. I am also very happy to water plants and manage aquarium care as needed. I also do not drink or party, I just need a sofa and a good book.

“Richard walked our two dogs for the first time recently and the experience exceeded my expectations. Both are extra large dogs--80 and 130 pounds. Not easy customers (both react to deer, dogs, etc.), but he managed them very capably. He was very knowledgeable, timely, and attuned to the dogs needs, as well as agreeable to work with. Will definitely book him again.”

Joy J.

“Ben communicates well and does well with CC. He even has taken his dog on walks with her which she loves. I’d recommend his as a dog walker if you are in need.”

David C.

“Lyla was great. Communication was easy from the start, and she was reliable about showing up every day we had scheduled. No chasing her down for updates, no last minute cancellations. If you’re looking for a dog walker you can actually count on, she’s a good pick.”

About: Hi there! I’m Amy. I grew up with two dogs in the family, so understand the responsibility, care, and routine of having a pet. Since moving away from home, I’ve become my friends and roommates go-to pet sitters when they travel, and would be happy to give your animals the love they deserve while you’re away. I work as a barista Wednesday through Sunday, so often have an afternoon or a morning free to pet sit. I’m available to overnight sit I’m not set up to adopt my own animal yet, so I am eager to help care for other’s animals when needed! I approach pet sitting with as much love and patience as possible, sensing what your baby might need while you’re away.

About: I’ve boarded, walked, and slept over with pets of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. It’s a passion for me, and that shows in my care. I work full time for the Pennsylvania Courts! My schedule is very flexible. I provide premium care with a workable schedule to suit your needs. I look at pets’ body language to see if they need space, listen to their “words”… years of experience help to let me know the best way to care for your pet. 😃
