About: I have been working in animal care for the last 10 years between animal shelters and boarding facilities. I can provide references. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, I have experience working with dogs and cats of all temperaments and also have knowledge in administering medications and insulin if needed. I am currently open. I can provide walks, drop ins, baths, nails, transport to and from daycare, whatever is needed! My routine is pretty set once I have a good schedule going! I can follow any instructions left by the client. I am very committed to making sure your pet stays happy and healthy in the time they spend with me.

About: Hi! My name is Yanny and I am a reliable and attentive pet caregiver with strong observation and communication skills (a psychology degree helps with that!). Experienced following detailed instructions, maintaining schedules, and recognizing behavioral cues in our furry friends. I love walking animals and helping them maintain their health when owners are gone. My biggest priority is to make the animals feel safe and loved while owners are away! Im currently working a full time job at a school near the Pittsburgh area, so I afternoons, nights, and weekends to connect with animals and owners. I can easily drive to a clients house, and I’m very reliable and flexible when it comes to scheduling! If needed, I can always drive the pets to parks and open spaces to have a fun time as well. (My work will depend on the wants and needs of the clients!)

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I love spending time with them in my free time! My daughter loves cats and dogs! Currently working 745am-345pm Monday-Friday. Can care for your pet before and after work! I also get a long lunch break would be able to check on them during then too! I have a large unfenced yard but willing to take dog to a fenced yard if needed! My daughter and I love spending time with animals.

About: I have had 3 dogs of my own! An Australian Cattle Dog Mix, a Basenji mix, and a working line large breed German Shepherd, which I helped train in obedience to be an SD. My dogs always had scheduled potty breaks and playtime. My job is to make sure your pet has the best time while keeping boundaries/respecting their space, ensuring their safety, and following your expectations of care. I am comfortable with any amount of shedding and the size of your pet. I can especially ease my interaction with pets that are scared and anxious, as through training my own dog, I am better at picking up the dog’s body language and only engage in physical contact if the pet’s body language consents. If you have an aggressive pet, please notify me beforehand. I do not guarantee I will agree to care for them, but I am interested in scheduling a first meeting if possible. Note: I do not drink/smoke, so your loved one will never be affected by second-hand smoke or inappropriate behavior. I am very available on the weekends and by the afternoon on weekdays. If you need morning care, please reach out and I will see if I can accommodate! My pets are routinely groomed and freshened. Everytime they come inside after heavy play, I clean their body from head to toe with pet friendly wipes. I use a brush that helps with shedding and smoothing out hair. Their teeth gets brushed every 2 weeks. I check their ears for dirt routinely and the inside of their paws for any injuries or cracking from dryness.

About: I have pet sat many times for many different animals. I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have taken care of puppies, older dogs, Guinea pigs, rats, cats kittens you name it! I love any and all types. I also have volunteer at the Human Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh. Since I work from home most days, pet sitting fits easily into my routine. I have the flexibility to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day while balancing my work schedule. I can offer pets consistent attention and a loving, comfortable environment. I am comfortable with all types and sizes. I will carefully watch over your pet as if it were my own. Anything you need me to do I am up for!

About: I have always loved animals of all kinds, and caring for them is truly my passion. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, nurturing, and dependable. I grew up with dogs, so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I treat every pet with love, attention, and care. I began watching dogs for family and friends in high school. Recently, I have been watching animals more frequently over the weekends which inspired me to create a Rover account! I am the happiest when I am around furry animals so I am very much looking forward to this journey! As a teacher, my weekdays are typically busy until 4:00 PM, but I’m available afterward for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My weekends are wide open, giving me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide fresh food and water, lots of playtime, endless attention, and plenty of affection. For walks, I focus on safety and keeping dogs active, happy, and comfortable while following their pace and needs.

I have also helped family, friends, and neighbors with their fur babies while they go away. I currently have no animals at my place. I have a yard and have plenty of room in my home to care for your pet/pets. I also live by the river front trail and love to take walks on the trail with the current pups I walk. I’m also willing to do drop ins to feed, water and take your pets out to potty as well!! I am currently a stay-at-home mom to my 4-year-old son and 4-month-old daughter, which allows me to be home throughout the day and provide consistent care, supervision, and attention to the pets in my care. I have a true passion for animals and would love to grow a business of my own centered around providing reliable, loving, and trustworthy pet care services.

My goal is to create a safe, calm, and nurturing environment where pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for.

About: I provide a dedicated, high-attention environment where your pet’s comfort and personality are my top priorities. I’ve grown up around dogs since I was young, which has given me a deep, natural understanding of their behavior and how to keep them feeling safe and settled. Because I work from home full-time, your dog will have constant companionship and the flexibility for unlimited potty breaks whenever they need them. Your pet will enjoy a rock-solid routine with three structured walks a day—they are welcome to join my friendly dog for some neighborhood socialization, or I can walk them individually upon request to give them my undivided attention. I am happy to accommodate any specific feeding, medical, or behavioral needs with total care, ensuring your best friend receives the focused, reliable stay they deserve. Since I work from home, my schedule is built around providing active, attentive care. Your dog will enjoy a consistent routine of three daily walks, with the option to join my own dog for socialization or go individually for 1-on-1 time. Because I’m home all day, I have plenty of time for indoor play, "anytime" potty breaks, and can even accommodate trail adventures or dog park trips for pups with extra energy. Having grown up with dogs since I was young, I’m happy to accommodate any specific needs to ensure your pet feels safe and energized while you're away. Whether I am hosting in my home or visiting yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. My house is kept meticulously clean, and I am always vigilant about spotting potential hazards to ensure the environment is fully pet-proofed and secure. If your dog stays with me, they’ll have the company of my very friendly Corgi, Jack. He is incredibly social and has a natural way of helping even the most timid or shy dogs feel comfortable and included. I treat every home with a high level of respect and care, ensuring your pet feels safe and your space stays spotless while you are away.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for both cats and dogs—though my own cats would probably like me to emphasize cats first 🐾 I’ve spent time volunteering with the Humane Society of Somerset County, where I walked and cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and with Kitty Queen Cat Rescue here in Pittsburgh. These experiences gave me hands-on confidence with animals who need patience, attentiveness, and a calm presence. At home, I’ve had cats my entire adult life—they truly are my babies—and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work from home, which means more flexibility, more availability, and more attention for your pets—whether that’s a midday walk, a check-in, or just extra time spent keeping them company. I offer: 🐶 Dog walking (reliable, attentive, and tailored to your dog’s pace and personality) 🐾 Drop-in visits for cats and dogs (feeding, litter/yard care, playtime, and meds if needed) 🐱 In-home cat sitting (a calm, cozy environment—perfect for cats who prefer a quieter stay) I’m also comfortable administering oral and topical medications. Availability-wise, I offer flexible evening and weekend scheduling to fit your needs. I’m especially great with: Cats (shy, opinionated, or “only likes their person” types included) Dogs who benefit from a patient, calm walker Pet parents who want thoughtful updates and peace of mind You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication while you’re away—I know how much that matters. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family (and probably talk to them like tiny roommates), I’d love to help 💛 I have a full time, work from home job as a Customer Experience manager M-F, so my availability is evenings and weekends as I'm able. I can also board kitties anytime that can hang out with me while I work! I am a nature lover who loves walks in the park and in the woods. When caring for pets in my home, I have a separate bedroom where I would be able to keep them separate from my two cats, if need be.

“Crystal cared for our cat and our two fish tanks while we were away for ten days. Our cat cannot eat dry food and is on medication. This extremely shy kitty required two visits per day. Crystal's kindly patience earned our cat's trust so that she ate, took her meds, and was in fine form when we returned. The fish tanks are large, and one is salt water. The fish were well cared for, too. Our porch flowers were blooming and our house was in perfect order when we got home. Crystal sent photos and updates after every visit. I never had to worry. Crystal is an excellent, trustworthy caregiver!”

About: I haven't pet sat many peoples animals before, but I can promise I will treat your pets how I would want someone to treat mine! I’ve had dogs & cats my whole life. I also used to work for a vets office 4 years ago before I had my son. I’m free any week day anytime! If my son has school there is just a time frame I have to take & pick him up. I haven’t cared for any animals in my home, but I’m willing to depending the size of the dog and how they do with children/if they are house trained. I do have a fenced in yard they would be able to run around in & I live in the nice neighborhood I’d take them for walks in.

About: One always wanted to have a dog of my own so taking care of other pets wood help me experience what I’ll need to know annd do when it’s the right time to have my own dog. I work early in the morning, after work I have nothing better to do besides take care of my family and my vehicles. I love to go to the park, travel, and go out to eat. I’m usually in the house in a safe and pleasant neighborhood, if I do go outside I’m either working, walking throughout the trail at our park or grabbing something to eat!. I rest assure everybody in my neighborhood doesn’t see me often only my neighbors. I honestly like it that way, it does protect us from what can possibly happen outside but I’m always protected and protective about everything!
