1. Richard T.


“Buster had a blast with the dogs in the yard. He was all doggie smiles when we picked him up! On top of that, I booked for the wrong day and Richard was nothing but nice about it, and completely accommodating. We’ll be back when we come through Pittsburgh again.”




2. Amy N.


“Amy helped me out in a bind. I needed her last minute and she was there to watch my pooch. She hadn't seen him in over 5 years and remembered him and his sweet characteristics. She was quick to respond and gave me updates as needed.”


3. Alexis K.

“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”


4. Christy M.


“Christy is great! She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and double checked instructions on care for my dog. My dog came back so happy and tired after her day with Christy. Would definitely recommend!”




5. Adrienne M.


“We have used Adrienne a couple times now and each time has been great. Bosa doesn't put up a fight when we leave him behind and is in wonderful spirits when we pick him up. They're good about ensuring he gets his herding-breed-exercise during his afternoon there. Recommended!”


6. Tia D.

“Tia was great! She accepted my request on short notice and made me feel at ease about leaving my boy Pete with her. We drove into town and needed a sitter for a few hours. She was the perfect choice for Pete the Pug. He was safe and secure in her fenced in yard. She also made him feel right at home letting him on her couch as part of the family. He made a new friend, Tang her adorable dog. She sent pictures and even a video to help ease my mind about dropping him off with a stranger away from home. I highly recommend her. And if we go back to Pittsburgh I will definitely book with her again.”


7. Brian B.

“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.”


8. Ella T.

“Dax had so much fun with Ella!! She came in clutch last minute!!”


9. Michael H.

“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!”


10. Sara H.

“My dog, Franklin, had such a wonderful time staying with Sara! She took great care of him and sent us so many great photos of him playing. I know he had fun because he was exhausted when he got home. I would definitely look to book with Sara again in the future!”


11. Claire S.

“Claire was great! Will surely be rebooking with her in the future!”


12. Annie B.

“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!”


13. Jack C.

“Jack took great care of Max on short notice when i visited Pitt to attend the football game. Will definitely use him again on future visits.”


14. Adventures with C.


“Ciera is professional, responsive, very efficient and took great care of Abaco (only 2mos. old). I wasn’t at all concern as she updated me with photos through out the day. She’s local in the area and just a text away!”


15. Amy C.

“Amy is outstanding! Fantastic communication and our dog seemed to have a very good time with her. We’ll definitely reach out to Amy in the future anytime we visit Pittsburgh. We couldn’t be happier.”


16. Denise P.
About: As a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for both dogs and cats, I currently have a two-year-old chihuahua mix. I love meeting new dogs and can’t wait to spend time with your pets! I own a home with a small fenced-in yard on Pittsburgh's Northside, perfect for safe outdoor play. Since I work from home full time, I can ensure plenty of attention, walks, and playtime for your furry friend. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Since I work from home full time, I have the flexibility to ensure regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I make sure to incorporate short breaks for outdoor play in my small fenced yard, and longer walks to explore the neighborhood. I make pet care a priority and adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the pets I’m caring for. When caring for pets in my home, they are treated like family. Pets are welcome throughout the house and are free to relax on furniture, nap on the couch, or sunbathe on the deck. I ensure they follow their regular schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable and happy. Since I work from home, I’m always around to give them the attention they deserve, making sure they feel loved and at ease.


17. Mandie L.

“Mandie, Jeff and pup Izzy were great with Soy on his 2nd visit to their home. Our dogs seem to have fun together! Mandie also is very reliable and quick with communication which was very helpful tonight when my plans shifted and I needed to pick Soy up early. I highly recommend this sitter.”


18. Kirsten S.


“Kirsten was really great with our beagle Pepper. She was also very flexible with pickup and drop off times. Highly recommend her for your dog boarding needs”


19. Jacqueline O.

“Jacqueline was great and very responsive. She took great care of my dog, Nino. Her attentiveness definitely allowed us to enjoy ourselves exploring Pittsburgh knowing Nino is in good hand.”


20. Riley & Bailey L.

“I was anxious as this was the first time using a service like this for dog sitting, but Bailey put my mind at ease. She sent pictures of my dog throughout the sitting, of them playing and going on a walk. I feel relieved knowing my dog was able to have a good time while we were away. I feel cofinent in saying that Bailey will take good care of your pet.”
