Dog Walking in Regent Square, Pittsburgh, PA

“Dmitra is the best!!! She walks our goldendoodle Griffin twice a week and is really amazing with him! Because of our schedules I usually have to tell her only a day or two in advance which days we need her help each week and she’s always really flexible and great about it! We also have cats that like to try to sneak out of the house, and she’s great about keeping an eye on them to make sure they stay in while she takes Griffin out for his walks. So glad we found her!!!”

About: Family, neighbors, and friends have trusted me to watch their dogs while on various vacations. Whether it be stopping in to feed them and take them on a quick walk, or staying the night and cuddling with the pet, I do it all! I’m in school and working, but love dogs and cats and would adore doing this in the free time I have. Cannot wait to meet you all! I will make sure your pets are safe and sound in their environment that they love. Whatever they need I will make come true, as I believe your best friends deserve the world!

“Brittani was great to work with, super quick to respond and was able to help with such short notice. Mosa seemed to love her, so we’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Connor was so patient with us today! Minnie is still getting used to new things so she didn’t go for a walk. But Connor was super professional and helpful!!!”

“Alex was great! I introduced him to both of my dogs, and I think they senses his calm, chill vibe and were into it. I am planning to reach back out to him in the coming weeks for walking and house sitting.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. My first dog on my own as an adult is currently a senior. He is a very sweet and gentle dog who loves to play with new friends. I have about 10 years of experience, dog sitting friends and family members' dogs. I am comfortable working with food aggressive dogs, highly anxious dogs, and everyone in between. I am experience with administering medications, working with puppies and supporting senior dogs. I have a great track record with leash training, potty training and winning over anxious dogs. I use positive reinforcement (single ingredient dried pumpkin treats) to keep your pups attention and gain their trust. I am happy to do a meet and greet beforehand in order to gain your trust too :) I look forward to working with you! I currently work part-time, Monday, Wednesday, Friday 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. I am available for walks after 2:00 p.m. on those days and all day Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available Monday through Friday for pet sitting, but will be out of the house for the hours of 8-1 MWF. My partner works from home, so if your dog need 24/7 care we can arrange that. As I mentioned in my bio, my main training mechanism is positive reinforcement. I do not believe in punishing dogs. In my experience it does not work and does not feel good! That being said, I am happy to work with you and come up with a plan together.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals — starting with playful puppies and large-breed dogs. As a lifelong pet owner myself, I understand the deep bond between pets and their families. I've raised both big and small dogs and supported friends, neighbors, and clients by providing loving, reliable care for their animals when they couldn’t be there. I’m also comfortable and experienced around children and elderly individuals, which allows me to provide a calm, respectful, and compassionate presence in any home. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel at ease, knowing they're in capable and caring hands. I’m available to care for your pets during regular workday hours, with occasional evening and weekend availability as well. Whether you need a midday check-in, a weekday companion, or occasional support outside the 9–5, I’m here to help keep your pets happy and comfortable while you're away. I understand how important your pet’s safety is, especially when someone else is entering your home. That’s why I take extra care during every visit — making sure doors and gates are securely closed, checking surroundings before entering or exiting, and always keeping your pet's safety and comfort as my top priority. I know how stressful it can be to trust someone with your space and your pet, and I treat both with the respect, attention, and care they deserve.

About: I have had both dogs and cats my entire life and even had a ferret at one point. I am a dog walker and cat and dog sitter (or cat walker if you would like!). Some of my current clients have been with me for 5 years. I also volunteer at a local shelter. I can drop in after 3 on most days since I am a student and weekends I am more flexible so I can work around your needs. I have a closed yard for my German Shepard and my cat is strictly an indoor cat. We use a mixture of dry and wet food for both animals and have frequent potty breaks for the dog.

About: I am an experienced petsitter who has worked in a professional, insured capacity (for Heavy Petting Petsitting) for over a decade. I also have experience working as an Adoptions Counselor at the Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh, where I was trained in the “Fear Free”, positive reinforcement-focused method of animal training and handling. I have an extensive understanding of both canine and feline body language and behavior, and have worked with dogs and cats of all breeds and personality types! I am currently in a remote Master’s program which allows me to arrange my schedule as is convenient to my clients. I do all of my course work from home! I have a household of a dog (cattle dog mix) and two kitties who are all very animal friendly! However, if your fur baby is not a fan of other animals, I am happy to stay at your home and follow your preferences as far as house conduct goes.

About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home dog lover with experience caring for senior pups and rescues. I lovingly cared for my senior dog through his golden years and recently adopted a sweet 1.5-year-old rescue from Kentucky. I understand the patience and attention dogs need to feel safe and loved—whether it is slow, sniffer walks or long jaunts to get out some energy! I currently work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for drop-ins or walks at almost any time, and am available before or after work on all days, including weekends. During drop-in visits, I treat your home with the same respect and care that I ask of our pet sitters. I’ll make sure your pup is happy, fed, and has fresh water, and I’ll clean up any messes or accidents. Whether it’s bringing in the mail, watering the plants, or giving your pet some extra playtime, I’m happy to help with the little things that give you peace of mind while you're away.

About: Hello! My name is Mariah Faith and I currently reside in Regent square The roads are long and flat which makes it great area and scenery for your puppy and I to walk. I have had two dogs and a bunny rabbit that I’ve loved and cared for over the years. Also, fun fact my grandfather was an officer for the humane society for over 40 years and they gave him his own day in the city of Pittsburgh. :) As of now I’m currently taking a break from school. Spring and summer is approaching us yay! So I can work around some quality time with your pups! I have a one bedroom in Regent Square. It is pretty spacious and there is no smoking or chemicals around my apartment that the doggy would get into. I always do a consultation with you to learn more about your puppy’s needs and if I am caring for your home as well <3 I am currently a Director at a Salon in shadyside. I have a pretty open schedule and can accommodate house sitting, pet boarding and walking in a lot of different ways :) I would treat your house like I would treat mine. With kindness and respect :) During our consultation we will talk about what that means to you.
