Dog Walking in Oakland, Pittsburgh, PA

“Thank you so much, Alex, for ALWAYS going above and beyond with Ernie!!! He is always so happy to have you walk him.”

About: Both of us have had family pets throughout our lives and participated in training and caring for them from a young age. We are comfortable caring for animals of all types. We have always lived in a multi-pet household, and have housesat for people with up to 10 animals and cared for pets of all ages and needs. We are available to spend lots of time with your pets. One of us can sleep at your home to keep them company and will ensure to never leave them alone for too long. Between the two of us, we will have more flexibility and availability to stop in more frequently and stay longer. We are happy to take dogs on walks and also put them in our car for fun outings. We are only able to care for pets in the client's home due to the fact that we are living in an apartment with two of our own young dogs. We both work part-time and have flexible schedules. Between the 2 of us, we can stop in multiple times a day and spend evenings and nights with your pets. We like to spend as much time as possible with the pets we care for. We understand that they can get anxious while their owners are away. We are very flexible and happy to follow whatever regimen we are given, and respect owner’s rules and expectations.

“We just finished our first week of having Linnea walk our dogs every afternoon. Linnea has been wonderful! She has been very quick with communications, asking and answering questions, sending photos, problem solving etc! I feel very at peace knowing my pups are getting some love and attention everyday.”

“Alex was great! Easy to communicate with and a good walk for the pup.”

“Caitlyn is great! Nina took to her right away. After just one walk she knew the sound of her car and ran to the window with yelps of joy every time she heard her pull up.”

“Drew is hands down the best house and pet sitter. She takes excellent care of my 5 animals (2 cats, 2 dogs and 1 turtle) and they all love her. One of my dogs is an extremely skittish, traumatized rescue and Drew has gone above and beyond to befriend her. Now I get photos of them snuggling on the couch together, which speaks volumes about Drew's gentle nature and patience. I always feel so comfortable leaving everyone in Drew's care. She follows directions, administers medication, and she leaves my house super clean and tidy too, which is always nice to come home to.”

“David was great with my shepherd, Ziva. She can be skittish and he let her dictate their first walk so she felt more comfortable. By the second day, she was no longer skittish. He sent helpful notes about how she was doing as well as pictures and video. I would recommend David!”

“Always on time and the dogs love walking with Diana! She is very good at providing information on Rover cards and we are so very happy to have our dogs walked with her.”

“Known Dakota for a very long time. She's extremely passionate about animals very patient and trustworthy! Would trust and recommend to watch my animals again!”

“Rylee has watched all of my pets (dogs, cats, & rabbits) multiple times while I have been on vacations and has always done exemplary work. We have multiple dogs and cats at home, and she was able to efficiently and effectively make sure they were provided and cared for while away. Very responsible and disciplined.”

“Bear is so amazing with our dogs Leia and Brooklyn :) Leia can be a handful and they are able to get Leia calm with so much care and love. We have been very happy with having them assist in caring for our dogs and recommend them to all of our friends :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cats since I was young! I lived on a farm in WV until moving to Pittsburgh in September of 2023. I’ve personally had small dogs, big dogs, HUGE dogs, young dogs, older dogs, cats, etc! I would love to own a pet, however, I’m not sure it’s a smart option at the moment. So boarding and walking with Rover makes all of that possible! I also work part time, usually 4-10PM Tuesday through Friday. I have a partially fenced yard! (driveway doesn’t have a gate.) I also live within a 5 minute walk from the humane society and several parks. During the day, I’ll be sure to keep you updated with pictures and videos (even facetime!) if necessary for your comfort :) I have hard wood floors and tile, so accidents are a problem!

“Jenny has been a godsend this summer. I had knee replacement surgery in June and she walked my dog Benny every day for 3 months. Over the summer we became very good friends and she did much more for me than walk Benny. Today is our last day and we are sad to see her go but I know we will keep in touch. I HIGHLY recommend Jenny to be your dog walker or sitter.”

“Brynn has dog and house sat for me and my French Bulldog, Ace, twice now. She’s awesome with my dog and keeps the house exactly how you left it! She’s also a great communicator and will even send you pictures of your pet if you’d like.”

“Helen has watched Luna several times and has been a wonderful caretaker. She is responsible, timely, and Luna loves her - she runs upto Helen and lays on her lap immediately when she comes over! Helen is a pediatrician and a very reliable person. I trust her with all of my pets!”

About: |||Only boarding CATS||| I've grown up with pets all my life and currently have a cat. I've volunteered at animal shelters doing basic tasks such as walking dogs, feeding , cleaning, and playing with animals. Fur Pals has been in business for over a year and we’ve had nothing but wonderful experiences! We love each and everyone of our clients. When I look at a pet, I don't see a pet but a child that needs nurturing and that's exactly how I will treat yours! I'll run with your fur baby, cuddle, roll around, play games, etc etc. Your baby's happiness is my #1 priority. I’m an artist & entrepreneur so my schedule is very flexible & fluid. I always make sure to set aside time to care for any animal in my home. My apartment is very spacious I make sure the air is well ventilated There's no possibility for escape Pet material always clean and replenished Keeping our spaces tidy is also very important for pet care My schedule is very flexible. I do most work from home making me very available to tend to your pet’s needs. Sometimes I may be away for the majority of the day. I have a spacious apartment on the 4th floor. There is no exit for your cat to escape my home. In your home I'll be sure to keep your pet away from any known exits.

“Natalie made me feel like I could easily leave town & enjoy myself knowing Ozzy was being well cared for! Not only does she have a great vibe that I picked up on, but Ozzy did as well. She walked him, played with him, & fed him while I was away. I would 100% recommend her services!”

“Katarina is a reliable and passionate pet caretaker. Over the years she has fostered 4 puppies/dogs training to be service animals, which is something that requires a lot of dedication. She’s extremely patient and calm under pressure when it comes to dog behavior. Katarina would make an excellent pet caregiver for Rover.”

“Oh megan, she’s such a sweetheart. She watches my dogs all the time, I trust her completely with all my animals. She always early and gives them all the extra love when I am not there. definitely the best!!”

“Kasie is very caring, responsible & always punctual. I would recommend her to anyone that needs a loving person to be with their pets when they can't. She has a heart of gold for the animal community probably why she has made it her passion & chosen career. Sherri S.”
