“I'm so thankful to have discovered Alexis as a caregiver for my pup! The location is perfect for my work commute. Our dogs get along great and my little puppy Kash gets stimulation and socialization with other dogs and humans. Alexis is obviously a "dog person" and shows love towards the animals. Alexis showed me the living area in the home on the first visit in order to make me feel comfortable. There are dog toys on-hand in the home plus a small grassy area outside where the dogs can go to the bathroom (with supervision). At this point, I have no hesitation recommending Alexis.”

“Buster had a blast with the dogs in the yard. He was all doggie smiles when we picked him up! On top of that, I booked for the wrong day and Richard was nothing but nice about it, and completely accommodating. We’ll be back when we come through Pittsburgh again.”

About: I love dogs and cats, well, animals in general. I have had cats since I was 5 years old and transitioned to dog owner 20 years ago. I had to unexpectedly put my dog Gracie down and it was devastating. I'm not ready to have a dog if my own again.I do miss having a dog in the house and dog sitting allows me to care for dogs without the emotional attachment. I would like to help you out with your pet care needs while you are on vacation or just at work and don't have time. I am able to pet sit your dog in my home, and I am also available for overnight boarding. I am available at all hours for sitting/boarding. When your dog is in my care, he or she will be treated like they are my own dog. Plenty of belly rubs, butt scratches, and most importantly, love. I do have a large fenced yard for your furry friend to enjoy fresh air, and sunshine (well, sometime there is sun. It is Pittsburgh after all). My house is a small ranch so no steps to climb but plenty of room to roam around or nap. When outside in the yard, they will be supervised at all times. I never leave dogs unattended in my yard. Plus, I do love to watch them play. Dog sitting is my only income and your dog will never be without attention. They will be treated like the king or queen that they are. There will never be more than 2 dogs in my care at any time. I have a small house and I simply do not have the room. I do have a large, fenced, backyard. They will never be left alone outside. Also, I do not leave the house when dogs are here. I will only leave for emergencies.

“My dog loves these two!”
5. Gabriel S.
“Gabriel was a great pet sitter! He watched Meeko two days in the same week, and on the second day Meeko literally ran into the house and didn't even look back! Gabriel was fast to respond any time I sent a message asking for an update. Meeko was ready for a nap when he got home both days so I know Gabriel spent time walking and playing with him. It's always hard to leave your pup with someone you don't know personally, but Gabriel was the ideal sitter and we will book him anytime we need care!”
6. Lydia R.
“Lydia took such great care of my Tillie while I had a long day at work. I was at ease knowing she was in such greats hands all day. I loved the updates throughout the day. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
7. Christy M.
“Christy is extremely nice and easy to work with. Very flexible with our schedule and had kept us updated with pictures throughout the entire time. We are comfortable leaving our fur babies under her care. Will definitely use her service again.”

10. Abby & Jason P.
“Abby loves dogs as much as anyone I know and is a very experienced handler. I would trust her to keep my dog safe and I know she would do anything to make him happy and comfortable. I am confident that Abby would love any pet like her own”
11. Marina P.
“Mon petit chien Junior a été très heureux de passer 10 jours avec elles . Nous l’avons retrouvé très heureux , nous avons reçu beaucoup de photo de promenade et de sieste . Je recommande vivement .”
12. Brian B.
“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.”

About: Hi! Come hangout with Finn and I! Although Finn is my only current pet, I have owned two other dogs, who have sadly crossed the rainbow bridge. Loki was my pitbull who passed in her senior years. I had her since she was 2, and have experience with senior dogs, medication, etc. Maui was my special needs bully mix who had spina bifida. With that came special diets, diapers, and a whole lot of personality! I'm a working professional who works from home! If I'm going to have my pup Finn, why not welcome yours as well into my home. I've seen the chaos at doggy daycares, and my home can be their place of more peace. Although my yard is not fenced in, I do have a dog run. I live on a quiet, virtually dead end street in Mt Washington. My house is a small 1 bedroom, and the dogs have free reign. I have lots of dog beds, blankets, and toys. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, and can watch endless Hallmark movies if they so choose! 🙂Because Finn is 2 and only 13 lbs, my ONLY REQUIREMENT is that your dog must be dog friendly, no small prey drive, etc. Thank you!
14. Tia D.
“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.”
15. Abena A.
“Abena has been watching my 4 month old dachshund puppy at her house during the weekdays the last month. She has been amazing with my dog. She’s very responsible, reliable, and has a true passion for dogs. Her dog Fig has been great with my puppy. My dog absolutely loves both Abena and Fig . I would 10/10 recommend her for any dog service!”
16. Sam C.
“We can always count on Sam to take great of our dog, Reese. Always takes her for walks, to the park, and Reese rants and raves about their play dates. Would absolutely recommend Sam to anyone looking for dog-care.”
17. Dennis L.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and I love to walk and exercise them. I love to see their excitement and happiness when it’s time to walk and play. I am retired so I can pretty much meet any schedule that is needed. Morning, days and evenings are no problem for me to take care of your baby. I would always care for your pets in your home where your baby is most familiar and comfortable. I only walk dogs on a leash for their own safety.
18. Barrett L.
“Barrett is a great guy and a compassionate pet owner. I've watched him interact with his two dogs for years now, and as a pet owner, he is playful, fun, and responsible. Without a doubt, I would let Barrett dog sit for me anytime. I can't say enough positives things about him; such a good dude.”
19. Sara H.
“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!”
20. Mick S.
“We were nervous with the transition from boarding to having a pet sitter, but Mick really helped put us at ease. We did a test run before our trip and we could tell that Willow really liked her. While on our trip, Mick sent us updates that included pictures and videos. She was also very quick to respond when I sent her a message to check in. If you are looking for a reliable pet sitter that will treat your dog like their own, I highly recommend Mick!”
