Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Oakwood, Pittsburgh, PA

“Savannah was truly outstanding. I had just started fostering a dog a week prior to her coming in, and she stepped in flawlessly. Had no issue washing the bedding when an accident happened, exhausted both dogs and made them happy and safe through out the whole week. She’s competent, figured out where everything was, and professional to a T. Would rebook her for a longer vacation anytime.”

“Sadie was so helpful when I wasn’t back from my trip on time. She came and did a last minute drop in to make sure the pups were fed and had some time outside. Much appreciated!”

“It was our first time using Rover and Kara was so considerate and helping us through the whole process! We couldn't have hoped for anything better. We know our cats were cared for while we were gone and that was so amazing! Kara was responsible, accommodating and just lovely with our kitties. We also got lots of pictures while we were away and we loved it. Thank you so much Kara!”

About: Hi, I am Mamie (I have gone by Mamie since birth but am technically named Mary) and I have had dogs, cats, and many smaller critters throughout my life, and my own pets for over 25 years. My mother was a vet tech and I grew up rescuing many animals, and continued that tradition into adulthood, so I have ample experience in a multitude of pet types and situations I work as a housekeeper around the Pittsburgh area from about 7am-3pm mon-thursday, so will not be available in the home or for potty breaks during those hours. The absolute longest I would leave a pet during a house-sitting is 8 hours on those days. All other outings/errands would be less than four hours, tops, but usually only about an hour. I am comfortable with more or less any pet, from rodents to lizards and I am not squirmish about even the creepy crawlies and slithery noodles. I can and have given almost every kind of medication there is, including subcutaneous injections, and am comfortable doing so with care and compassion and confidence. I am just starting out with professional pet sitting on Rover, I did it years ago in Seattle as a side gig on my own with Craigslist posts, and have had a couple gigs on here so far. I am clean, responsible, and trustworthy. I will only take jobs with a meet and greet beforehand, and you can get a feel for my vibe and professionalism at that time, but I am sure you will like me and feel comfortable having me in your home. As a housekeeper I am used to going into strangers homes and having a high level of integrity and care for their space and belongings. I also am very clean and fastidious. I keep things looking like I wasn't there as much as possible, and will clean litter boxes daily and change water bowls daily and do deep cleans of water fountains 1x a week. I work as a housekeeper from 7am-3pm mon-thursday around the greater Pittsburgh area. If you have multiple dogs who need round the clock supervision and you book me at least three weeks before the sitting start date, than we could work that out and I could block out my housekeeping schedule for that time and just be available for the sitting job (my rates will be increased in this situation as I am priced for my current availability, not constant care and being unable to make my normal wages during the sit). I don't do sitting in my own home since I have two cats and a husband and no fenced in yard. In clients homes I am respectful, clean, tidy, responsible and trustworthy. I mind my business and am not judgemental. I will spend lots of time loving and socializing your pets, and I set alarms and try to keep potty breaks frequent to avoid accidents and less stress.

“Very accommodating especially for being on short notice”

About: I have had a lot of experience, taking care of cats and dogs over the years. They were all taken care of with love. I can administer meds if they can be given orally. I take care of my two cats daily. I always make sure they have toys, time outside, weather permitting, with an electric fence to keep them safe. Fresh water from a water fountain, clean litter boxes, Royal Canin dry cat food, play time and lots of love. They are also members of Bansfield Hospital to make sure they are keep healthy. Whenever I would watch a cat in somebody’s home or have a drop in at someone’s home, I would make sure that all of their needs were met by following the Cat owners requests. I would also take my time in introducing myself to the cats that that are shy. I will give them a lot of love and attention and make sure that they were totally taken care of the way I take care of my own cats. I will also take pictures of the cats, give updates and send them to the client

About: I've taken care of many pets in my life. Cats, dogs, and even ferrets. I love all animals no matter the size. I have always wanted to care for animals all my life. I also love to take pet Portraits and keep my clients updated whenever needed! I am currently available everyday to care for your fur babies! I enjoy spending my downtime with animals big and small. Do not be afraid to reach out about schedualing! I clean my fur babies litter box every day to keep a healthy environment. I tend to brush their fur twice a week and always give them lots of love every day!
