“Candace is amazing! She was super flexible to accommodate my last minute request, showed my pet a ton of love, & even sent me pics/videos during her walks. I will definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”

About: As a previous dog owner and sitter of nearly a decade, I have a very strong skill set when it comes to catering to your unique pup's needs! I am keen on carefully following the instructions left by dog owners while also using my own sensible judgement to make the best decisions for each pet. I can't wait to meet both you and your pup! I am a full-time CMU student, so I'm available to care for your pet(s) predominately on the weekends and all semester breaks during the school year, but anytime during the summer! I live in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs unfortunately. However, I do live within 3-5 minutes away from several parks, including Mellon Park, The Walled Garden, and Baum Grove Park.

About: I've had rescue dogs my whole life and understand the patience, love, and consistency they need to thrive. I’m the proud dog parent of a 3-year-old Plott Hound and a 4-year-old Beagle/Pit mix—both super friendly and always up for a game of tug-of-war! Over the years, I’ve successfully potty trained, crate trained, and helped my dogs work through separation anxiety. My hands-on experience gives me a calm, confident approach with all breeds and personalities. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own in a safe, fun, and loving environment. I create my own work schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, flexible time to pet care every day. I structure my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and training with my two dogs. This flexibility makes it easy to welcome another dog into our routine—whether for a walk, drop-in, daycare, or boarding. I’m committed to giving every pet the attention and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play alongside my two friendly, playful dogs. There are plenty of toys to keep everyone entertained! I’m happy to crate your dog if needed and always follow your daily routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I believe in clear communication, so I love sending picture updates to keep you connected and reassured while your pup is in my care.

About: Hi! 🩷 I’m a passionate animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I share my home with two calm dogs and a sweet cat, so I know just how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I’m home full time, which means your pet will get constant supervision, attention, and plenty of love while you’re away. I offer a safe and engaging environment with a spacious, fully fenced-in backyard for playtime and fresh air. I even have a cozy catio for feline guests who enjoy some sunshine and birdwatching! I know every furry friend is unique, so I’d love to schedule a meet-and-greet before booking to learn all about your pet’s personality, diet, potty routine, and any special needs they may have. My goal is to make them feel right at home while giving you peace of mind. Whether your pet needs snuggles, exercise, or just a calm and loving atmosphere, I’m here to provide it. I’d love the chance to care for your pets like they’re my own!🐶🐱💓 I’m a full-time pet parent to two dogs and a cat, so my day naturally revolves around feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, training, and lots of snuggles. From morning walks to evening wind-downs, caring for animals is part of my everyday life. Because I’m home full time, I’m always available to give attention, meet needs as they come up, and provide a consistent, loving environment for both my own pets and any I’m caring for. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or adjusting to a new pet’s preferences, I’m already in the rhythm of giving animals the time, care, and affection they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like they’re part of the family. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment, complete with a large fenced-in backyard for dogs to run and play, and a secure catio for feline guests to enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I keep a calm, structured routine that includes feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and downtime, all tailored to each pet’s needs. If I’m caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their usual routine so they feel as safe and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, litter box cleaning, walks, or playtime—and always check in with updates and photos to keep you in the loop. No matter where the care takes place, I focus on creating a loving, low-stress experience where pets feel secure, seen, and genuinely cared for

About: I adopted my dog, Brandi, when she was 5 months old. She walked and ran with me until she was 18 years old and never got sick. I work as a teacher assistant during the school year, but am available to sit most evenings and weekends as well as during summer break. I make sure my dog has a daily walk or two, is well fed and gets her hair brushed daily, and is able to run and roam freely at the park.

About: I come from a family of animal lovers so I have had and have taken care of many pets. I also am an avid dog walker and love to play with my dog in the backyard. I am currently home now and so going to someone’s home to take care of the family pet is something that can easily fit my schedule. I have my dog on a schedule for her feedings and taking her outside (of course there’s flexibility). And so I will respect the pet owner’s requests for his/her pet.


About: I've been taking care of animals for a long time now, I've taken care of horses, cat, reptiles, and dogs of course. I like to bring a positive energy with me to keep pets of all kinds happy There is always time for me to sit a pet, I can go night sits, and early morning. I dont have a car but I make it around by Lyft, I always show up early to get a better understanding of the animals im watching I make sure they are well fed, consistent potty breaks, and will make sure they are safe at all costs. Animals are my number one priority

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets while they’re away. I am currently working part time. I am available Monday-Friday from 10-5. So I very open and will have time to care for your dog! I do have two friendly dogs of my own to keep your pup company. Your dog will be cared for like I care for my own dogs.

About: Hello fur parents! I have been a fur mama for more than a decade and have watched many dogs and cats since I could remember. I'm a current proud owner of an American Bully, the most sweetest and gentle giant of a dog she is. She loves all dogs and cats and is very good around them. I give constant attention to any dogs or cats under my care. To the point where they will get spoiled with love. When they are in my care I treat them as if they are my own babies. I work overnight shifts during the week, which means my days are free to spend quality time with your fur babies. I’m very hands-on and love staying active with pets. Plus, my significant other works from home, so there’s always someone present to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I have a good size fenced backyard for the dogs to roam around and play. I do have a dog play pen to separate dogs if needed. I'm great with first aid, medication and care for your loved one. My dog is not crated and she likes to roam around and usually just lays in her bed or on the couch. Your fur babies are more than welcome to sleep on the dog beds that we have and on our comfy couch too! I like to wipe my dogs paws after every walk or play outside and I would do the same to your dog. Please let me know if your dog doesn't like their paws to be touched. If I do have to leave the house for like an errand I always have a camera to keep watch on. I love to send pictures and video updates of your fur babies and make sure they are well taken care of.
