“Richard was a wonderful host, he gave me plenty of updates as well as sending me pics through out my pups stay. He had a big fenced in yard with plenty of space for my dog to run around and play 10/10 definitely recommend.”
“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.”
“Christy, Louie, and Bandit we’re wonderful hosts. I needed to go out of town for the day and this was my first time using Rover. Traditional dog daycares seem to make Mungo nervous and this was a much better arrangement. Christy was so kind and we were able to do a quick meet and greet in advance. I knew immediately that Mungo would be comfortable with her. It was a huge relief knowing that the dog was happy and well cared for while I was gone. Many thanks!”
“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!”
“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.”
“SSAVANNA WAS GREAT! WATSON RETURNED VERT HAPPT. HE MUST HAVE ENJOYED THE DOG PARK SAVANNAH TREATED HIM TO! Will be happy to have Savannah care for Watson again! Laura”
“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!”
“Sara was amazing !! She was very flexible with booking even when it was very last minute. She was very kind and sweet and sent us photos of our puppy. I would 100% reccomend booking with her! I look forward to book with her in the future!”
About: When it comes to pet sitting, my extensive experience and deep love for dogs truly set me apart. I've been around dogs since I was a baby and have been taking care of them for over 15 years. This lifelong familiarity with dogs has given me a strong understanding of their needs and behaviors. In addition to my experience, I have special skills in both training puppies and providing care for senior dogs. I am well-versed in the unique requirements of each life stage, ensuring that your pet receives the appropriate attention and care. Currently, I have a 1.5-year-old sweet Bernedoodle who is well-socialized and loves both cats and dogs. This personal experience further enhances my ability to provide a loving and comfortable environment for your pets. Whether it's playtime, training, or senior care, I am dedicated to offering the best possible care for your furry family members. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day starts with dedicated time for feeding, walking, and playing with my dog, ensuring they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need. Throughout the day, I incorporate short training sessions and regular bathroom breaks to maintain a structured schedule. In addition to daily care, my weekly routine includes more extensive activities such as grooming, longer outdoor adventures, and socialization opportunities with other pets. I make sure to set aside time for veterinary visits and any necessary health check-ups. Having a consistent routine not only keeps my own dog happy and healthy but also ensures that I am always prepared to provide top-notch care for other pets as well. My experience with my Bernedoodle has taught me the importance of maintaining a balanced and enriching routine, which I apply to all the pets I care for. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment where they feel comfortable and loved. My home is pet-friendly, with plenty of space for them to play and relax. I ensure that each pet has their own designated area with their bed, toys, and food/water bowls. Regular walks, playtime, and training sessions are part of the daily routine, along with lots of affection and attention. I also keep a close eye on their health and well-being, making sure they are happy and stress-free. When providing care in a client’s home, I strive to maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize any disruption. I follow the feeding schedule, walk times, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I spend quality time with the pets, ensuring they get enough exercise, play, and companionship. I am also attentive to the home's security and cleanliness, treating it with the utmost respect. Whether it's administering medication, handling special dietary needs, or providing extra cuddles, I make sure every pet receives personalized and loving care.
“Amy was great with our Lucy! Super attentive to her needs and kept us updated with the cutest pics! Will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have a sweet three-year-old chihuahua mix, and I truly enjoy meeting and bonding with new dogs. I work from home full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, walks, and play throughout the day. I live on Pittsburgh’s Northside with a small, secure fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor fun. Since I work from home full time, I can give your pet plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a small fenced-in yard in Pittsburgh’s Northside for safe outdoor breaks, plus I love getting out for longer walks with my dog, at least once a day. Pet care is part of my daily routine, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like family. They’re welcome to relax on the furniture, nap on the couch, or sunbathe on the deck. I stick to their regular routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to help them feel comfortable and at home. I also have a baby gate to limit access to stairs for small dogs when needed. Since I work from home, I’m always nearby to give them the attention, care, and love they deserve.
“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.”
“Barrett was fantastic. I was passing through Pittsburgh on a holiday weekend and needed someone to watch my two 1 1/2-year-old beagles while I attended a Pirates games with friends. Barrett welcomed Harper & Quincy to his home, provided regular updates, and took great of them (including giving meds). Would absolutely use again.”
“We had a great experience with Gretchen! We were in town for a wedding and looking for someone to come to our rental house and sit with our dog there. Even though this is not a standard dog-sitting situation, she was willing to accommodate us. Our pup was calm and content when we returned and everything worked out great.”
“Amazing! She is so kind and my sweet Winnie enjoyed playing with little Remy! Leah was great at giving me updates and cute videos which really eased my mind throughout the day. Thanks so much! Hope to see you again soon 😊”
