“Dmitra is the best!!! She walks our goldendoodle Griffin twice a week and is really amazing with him! Because of our schedules I usually have to tell her only a day or two in advance which days we need her help each week and she’s always really flexible and great about it! We also have cats that like to try to sneak out of the house, and she’s great about keeping an eye on them to make sure they stay in while she takes Griffin out for his walks. So glad we found her!!!”
“Zeus just loves his walks with Chelsea. He is soo excited when she comes to take him for his walk. When I need a dog walker I will contact Chelsea. Many thanks”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who has a family dog on the other side of the state! I have over 7 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, ranging from 3-month-old puppies to sweet senior dogs who want more love than play time. For the past 4 years, I’ve been trusted to walk, drop in, and house-sit for multiple families/friends, providing attentive, loving care while keeping their homes safe and clean. Whether it’s a nice day/evening walk, an overnight stay, or a drop-in visit for a couple of hours during the day, I make sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, safe, and entertained. I love going for walks, playing fetch, playing with toys, and giving them all the attention they deserve and need! If your dog loves to lounge and cuddle while watching TV, they'll become a fan of reality TV pretty quickly. In addition to pet care while house-sitting, I will gladly water your plants, bring in and sort mail, and ensure your home stays clean and cared for while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like my own as I watch them, and your home will be cared for like it is my own. I currently work FT in health care, which only requires 3 days of work a week! While my work days vary week to week, I am a home body the other 4 days of the week so your pets will feel loved and cared for while your gone! Since I just bought my house, I am currently not offering boarding in my own home; however, I would be glad to stay over at your place (when available) and care for your pets! If you don’t have a yard, no problem! I will gladly take them for walks around the neighborhood and make sure their needs are met. If your pet needs a drop-in visit for love during the day, we can spend time playing, cuddling, eating some treats (if applicable), and take a bathroom break or two!
About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.

About: I have been involved in dog rescue for 10 years. I have dog walked and dog sat neighbors, family, and friends pets. I have Foster dogs for rescues in the Pittsburgh surrounding area. I also do in home dog grooming. ❗🐾 I am currently doing in home grooming so that leaves me available at home throughout the day Monday through Sunday which leaves me available to be Hands-On with the dog(s) I am caring for. I do have a fenced in yard but I also do like taking dogs for walks while I'm dog sitting. I do own a few dogs and a few cats. My dogs and cats are very well mannered and are dog friendly.
“Shannon has been walking my pup for two weeks now and has been wonderful! The weather has been freezing and snowy and yet she has always showed up on time and has established a great relationship with my dog. She does a super job knowing when it’s too cold (or my dog just isn’t in the mood) to go for an extended walk and will just play with him inside a bit longer instead. Highly recommended!”
“Hannah was amazing with Harper. Harper has extreme anxiety, and Hannah calmed her fears as well as mine. We were extremely satisfied with her dog walking services, and would use her again. We would also recommend her to any one that needs dog walking services. -Kim, Barb, & Harper”
About: I've been taking care of my grandmothers pets since I was 9. I've learned to take care of tiny dogs all the way to very large dogs. Also learned how to take care of cats! I've learned how to know what care is best for each pet and knowing their limits and boundaries is key. I've also taken care of many senior dogs in my life. I love all dogs, cats and each one of their different personalities! I'm working part time on weekends only, and trying to save up for school. So I am very flexible when needed and I can do overnights as well! I am very dedicated to each animal and their environment! I can do anything needed for your pet, even if it seems a bit silly! I understand each pet has specific needs and wants and I am able to do it all to make your pet feel comfortable in your home while you're away! I can do overnight if needed! I'd keep in contact with you and update about anything you would like to know!
About: I have four toy poodle mixes--three seniors and one high-energy who loves to play. I currently work full time from home and would love to spend part of my mornings and days helping a new dog-friend have a good day. I am physically fit, athletic and able-bodied and can play hard and run with your dog if that is their interests, or I have no problem doing around the house basic-skills training or just relaxing and spending time with your dog. I am very flexible and look forward to working with your dog and meeting his or her needs and helping them have some fun and feel great! Thank you for your time. I currently work full time from home and my day is already oriented towards dogs’ needs. I love dogs and look forward to them each day.

Northview Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Mandie did very well with our really shy COVID-19 rescue pup! We hired her to walk him and take him around the neighborhood, so he can get experience with other people. She did very well with him. She also did a great job with Tasha, our Siberian Husky, who just loves a good walk around the park!
Carlie from the get-go has been communicative, caring, attentive, and professional. I have a nervous dog who can be high maintenance and she took careful note of all his neurotic tendencies (: They hit it off and it’s a relief to have peace of mind about who’s care he is in. Highly recommend!
