“Kaley was able to help walk my dog when I was in a bind. She responded quickly, communicated effectively and arrived right on time to assist. My dog loved his walk and I was extremely grateful for the assistance. Thank you Kaley!”
“J.M. was great with my dog Grits. They came on time, gave a thorough report, and sent some cute proof of life pictures that brightened up my day at work. Thank you J.M.!”
About: I had a pup for 12 years before he passed of cancer. I never thought I could love an animal quite as much as this guy. He was my best friend - we did everything together! We went on runs, ate chicken nuggets, strolled the neighborhood and even hiked for hours on end! When he passed, a part of me was torn and I could never bring myself to recommit to another pup full time. I realize how innocent animals are and how much love and dedication they need from us each and every day. I know how to care for pets and understand the importance of feeling safe with a sitter. I am a genuine and honest individual with your pet's best interest at heart!! I work from home most days from 730 - 430 with the exception of Monday mornings. Although I am a fitness instructor with various classes each week, I am typically flexible and can make most times work. Although I only have a small backyard, I have a big house. Also, there is a baseball field just steps from my backdoor. There is plenty of space inside and outside to have fun!
“Kimberly is the sweetest with our little anxious pup! We trust her 100% with our baby and will definitely be return clients. She is amazing and I am so happy to have found her! Thank you Kimberly!”
About: I have a 3 year old Italian greyhound who is active and social. I love having animals and will provide great care to yours too! I work full time from home. I have a dog of my own who I take on daily walks and trips to the dog park weekly. I live in the north side of Pittsburgh. I live walking distance from a fenced in dog park and walking trails. I have a back yard that will be fenced in this spring.
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.
“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!!!”
About: Hello! My name is Allison, and I’ve had a passion for all animals since I was a little girl. I’ve always volunteered at local animal shelters, and I’ve been trusted to take care of countless family/friend’s pets for as long as I can remember, as well as being a caring momma to my own fur babies throughout my life! In the past, I’ve had pets with health issues, so I’m used to giving medicines/shots if needed. I have a unique schedule, I’m a Private Flight Attendant and I only fly an average of 9 days a month, sometimes less! I usually have a pretty good idea of my schedule, and when I’m not flying, I’m home all day every day making sure my pup gets lots of love, attention, cuddles, and exercise! I am home more often than not, if anything I leave for 1-2 hours rarely to run some errands. I currently have one pup I rescued two years ago named Drexler who is my pride and joy. We typically go on multiple walks a day, and have a few dog parks walkable from our house where he has lots of friends. We also have a fenced in turf backyard & upstairs balcony- we love to spend a lot of time outside! My dog Drexler LOVES making friends and being social, he’s extremely friendly and gets along with everyone/everything. I decided to come to Rover and offer my time/services considering I’m in an extremely lucky position with a lot of availability and lots of extra love to share! I can accommodate almost anything, and Drexler and I would love to meet your fur babies!
“I couldn't be happier with the care and attention Chelsea has shown my dogs. She has been on time and great at corresponding about any concerns or questions she may have. Really appreciate all the great pictures. Definitely happy to have Chelsea looking after my dogs while I'm at work.”
“Alayna has been walking my pup for a few weeks now and it’s been going so well! She came by to meet us and see the house before the first walk, and my dog was comfortable and at ease around Alayna right away. I love getting the walk update with a cute pic of my happy pup out in the neighborhood. She’s also been very accommodating and flexible which works so well for my often-changing schedule. Thanks, Alayna!”
“Ann was super responsive and very accommodating. Thank you!”
“Great experience! Very attentive and gentle with my elderly dog. Very responsive and caring. Sent lots of videos and pics. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 9 years old. I had a senior doggy that I recently had to put down and I miss having time with a doggy. I’m able to do drop in visits, walks, feedings, in morning and evening or anytime on weekends. I’m in graduate school, I’m free early morning 7-10 am and anytime after 2 pm and all weekends are open. Flexible to you and your pets needs! I will not be able to to have pets in my apartment due to lease restrictions but I will do whatever is needed to make you and your pet feel comfortable in your home!
About: I've taken care of dogs (either my own or pet-sitting) for the past 15 years. I have had many friends and family members rely on me to keep their pets fed, walked, played with, and loved while they are out! I also have experience with senior dogs, giving medication etc. My work schedule is fairly flexible, so it's super easy for me to fit pet care into my daily/weekly routines! I keep my home clean and safe for pups to venture around. I will send lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and well taken care of. I have a fairly flexible full time job where I am able to work from home as needed. Additionally, when I need to be in person it is usually only for a few hours maximum. So I have plenty of time to be playing with and caring for your pups! I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of great spots for fur babies to use the bathroom and get their exercise in! I spend a lot of time after initial drop off trying to make your pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible! I'll also send you lots of pictures to alleviate some of the stress of leaving your pup with someone else. I spend a lot of time giving the pets I care for the same love and attention they would receive at home.
“Jennifer always comes in clutch to walk my pup. She goes above and beyond to make sure he has a great walk and socialization in the middle of the day. She’s super caring and quick to respond!”
About: Hi! I’m Molly. I’m currently taking a career break and hope to play with your pets while I do so. 💗💗. While Pittsburgh is home, I’m searching for sunny spaces to house (and animal!) sit while I search for my next remote role. I had the most wonderful dog on Earth, Jackson, who passed at 16, so I definitely was doing something right in the realm of dogs. 😊 Responsible, reliable, and hater of ‘rithmetic. Right now, my “job” is looking for my next one. 😉 So, I’ll have plenty of time to provide your pets the round-the-clock care they deserve. I’ll treat your home (and your fur babies) like they’re my own. I like to leave spaces better than how I found them. Thanks for considering me!
“I can’t recommend Brooke enough! She walked my miniature dachshund Frank and was incredibly considerate the whole time. She made sure he was comfortable, took her time with him, and even sent me the sweetest photo updates during their walk, which totally put my mind at ease. Frank came back happy and relaxed—which says a lot because he can be picky about who he vibes with. Brooke clearly has a genuine love for dogs, and it shows. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“So appreciative of her as always! Does a great job with my pup!”
About: Hello! My name is Riley and I, like many others on this platform, am a lover of dogs of all shapes and sizes! I grew up with dogs in my home for my entire life and as an adult have taken care of dogs for my neighbors, family, and friends. I have a dog of my own, Snowy (5 y/o Husky mix) who I love running and playing with every day. I am a long distance runner and can run and play with more active dogs or take nice, leisurely strolls with more relaxed pups. I really love larger breed dogs but feel comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I currently work from home full time, so I can take your pup in for day care or boarding if you’re comfortable with them hanging out with my dog, or can pop by your place for a walk or run during my lunch breaks! I'm also happy to stay at your place if you are comfortable with my pup coming along with me and staying in your home. Let me know what works best for you and your furry friend, and let’s set up a meet and greet! I have one very friendly and active pup, Snowy, who will love to play with your fur baby! If I’m caring for your pet during the day or boarding your pup, I will not being having any other pets aside from my own in the home unless discussed with you beforehand. I do have a small fenced in back yard. I’m also happy to bring your pup to our local dog park if that is something you’re comfortable with!
