“Olivia was amazing!!! 10/10 I felt so comfortable knowing my doggies were in good hands. She sent a ton of pictures and updated me throughout her stay with them. I had a rough weekend and knowing I didnt have to worry about my dogs was such a relief.”


“My first time using Ericka to watch my dog Toby and I'm very pleased with the job she did. She sent me pictures of Toby each day which I enjoyed receiving. Toby requires eye drops 5 times per day so it's a bit of work to care for him. Also pleased that the house was in good order when I returned. I hope to use Ericka again in the future.”


“CK was great with my dog and cat, and very communicative! He was even able to come back and check on the animals later than planned when we were delayed coming home. Would definitely book again!”



“We truly hit the jackpot with Natalie! From the moment she met our dog, it was clear she has a natural gift with animals. Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for dogs gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Natalie didn’t just “watch” our dog, she bonded with her, spoiled her with love, and kept her happy, active, and safe. We received regular updates (complete with the cutest photos), and it was obvious our pup was having the time of her life. We recommend Natalie without hesitation. If you’re lucky enough to book her, your dog will be in the very best hands.”


About: With over 17 years of experience caring for my Schnoodle, Heinz, I’ve learned how to provide dogs with the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether your dog is full of energy or enjoys a slower pace, I tailor each walk to their unique personality. I’m experienced in senior dog care, ensuring your dog is comfortable and safe. Your furry friend will be treated like family, with walks full of fun and care! I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate ample time to walking and caring for your dog. Whether it’s daily walks or occasional care, I can adjust my availability to suit your needs. Your pup will get the attention and exercise they deserve! I prioritize your dog’s safety and comfort during walks. I ensure they are always in a safe environment, away from traffic and hazards. With years of experience as a pet owner, I know how to handle dogs of all temperaments. I’ll make sure your dog feels secure, happy, and well-cared for at all times.

“Alyssa did a fantastic job watching our dog Thor when we went out of town for an extra long weekend. She showed up on time, excited and prepared for the visit. Sent pictures and updates a few times everyday, which gave us peace of mind. We will be using her again in the future.”


“Traisaun does a great job with our fur kids. We can always tell how good of a time they had by how excited they are when we get back. Even though we were gone for the weekend, they barely acted like we had gone to the store, which means they barely missed us not being here. Even the rabbit, who doesn’t like everyone, looks around for Traisaun after he leaves. Aside from being great with our fur kids, Traisaun is very reliable and trustworthy. We will continue to hire Traisaun as long as we can!”


“Darra is truly excellent and I highly recommend her! She’s thorough, communicative, and diligent. She took care of our dog and cat and housesat for us for two weeks while we were away on vacation. This is our 2nd time working with Darra and certainly not our last!”


“Tessa was great with our boys while we were away. She communicated everything really well with us and sent us daily update pictures. Will definitely be using her again next time we are going out of town.”


“Lillian was excellent with our two large dogs who have different needs like scared of storms/fireworks and high energy, jumpy. She was great with both of them and made sure they had what they needed all weekend, while sending us pictures and keeping us updated. We will definitely contact Lillian again in the future!”


“D’Aujanae looked after our home and fur babies over a weekend. She was flexible with our pups needs and communicated through the entire stay! We are so appreciative of her and would definitely book again.”


“Alexis did a wonderful job pet sitting our cats. She followed instructions well and sent us lots of photos and videos. Our house was just as we left it when we came back! We will definitely be using her services again!!”


“Cannot say enough good things about our experience with Elise! She has great communication skills and is both very reliable and professional. She even won over our younger pup who tends to be a bit skittish! Loved getting all the updates and photos while we were away. We have been looking for someone trustworthy that could be a long term sitter for our dogs and we are excited to have found that in Elise!”


“Liz is amazing! She is very experienced, thoughtful and communicative. We have a very anxious dog and she was so attuned to his needs and patient with him. We appreciated her updates and photos and had so much peace of mind knowing he was with someone who cared about him as much as we do. We will absolutely be using her again!”


“We are so grateful to have had Allison stay with our Corgi while we were away for a week. Our dog has anxiety and typically becomes very stressed while we are away, but Allison stayed at our home, followed his usual routine as closely as possible, and made sure to give him some extra love. She would check-in with us daily to let us know how things were going and would ask questions if she was unsure of something. She was respectful with our home and belongings and made sure to leave things nice and tidy for our return. As someone who tends to leave a lot of instructions when it comes to staying with our dogs, I can’t recommend Allison enough! She truly made us feel comfortable that she had things under control so that we could enjoy our vacation.”


“Taylor did an amazing job! She was so good with my dog and my elderly mother. I was thankful for her help and felt confident everything was taken care of at home while I was away.”


About: I’ve been dog-sitting on and off for a few years now. This mostly included either visiting a house or having the dogs stay overnight! And now I have my own pet (chocolate lab) so taking care of pets is even more fun I’m currently unemployed so my schedule is very much free and open. Which is also great since I can do long term watches if need be I am constantly involved with the pets always and love to play with them. And always double check on specific feeding schedule or bathroom schedule. I also make sure to keep the clients house clean and tidy incase they are gone for a longer period of time.

About: I've been the go-to sitter for my family for years because they know how much I love to be around animals. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have two cats who are my whole heart, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust to care for you furry family when you are away. I am a freelance artist and am usually doing various creative projects in the Pittsburgh area. Which gives me a very flexible schedule to focus on pet care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or overnight care, I can usually accommodate short notice and regular routines. I'm happy to work with your pets specific schedule to keep things consistent and stress free. I provide most of my care in the client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routine. Whether it’s walking, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my own home, I can only accommodate small dogs who are cat-friendly, since I have two cats of my own. Their well-being and yours are always my top priority.

Matthew L.
“Matthew has provided outstanding care for my three senior dogs—Buddy, Hank, and Carleigh. Each of them had unique needs, and Matthew handled every one of them with incredible attention and compassion. Carleigh needed help navigating stairs, Buddy required medication at specific times, and Hank was very sensitive to changes in routine. Matthew took the time to understand their individual personalities and medical needs, and he always made sure they were safe, comfortable, and loved. He’s thoughtful, reliable, and has a gentle, intuitive way with older dogs that’s hard to find. I never had to worry when Matthew was with them. He doesn’t just care for pets—he advocates for them. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for truly exceptional care, especially for senior dogs.”

Emma F.
“Emma F is my next door neighbor. From the time I had my special needs terrier, Ozzie, when she was just a teen, she would help take him for walks and give exceptional care and love when she and her family would pet sit Ozzie when I traveled. Ozzie was very particular about people and really loved Emma. Now she's an adult and has loveable chocolate lab, Charlie, who she walks and takes great care of. Emma is a very attentive pet sitter for other people's dogs who often stay at her house. She carefully manages interactions between Charlie and some of these 'visiting' dogs that require closer supervision so everyone stays happy and healthy. Emma is a smart, capable, incredibly resourceful human being that any pet owner would absolutely love walking or caring for their furry family member whenever they need her services.”


Sydney D.
“Sydney is a true animal lover! She's cared for our dog and cat many times and they both adore her. Our dog is a very timid rescue, but Sydney knows how to make her feel safe and happy :)”
