House Sitting Saint Clair

“This was our first time entrusting Patrick with our house and pups. We were quite confident in our decision when, during the meet and greet, Patrick inquired about our care routines in detail, which we hadn’t been asked before. Throughout our trip, Patrick kept us informed about our pups’ well-being by sending us pictures of their adventures. We appreciated receiving these updates as they allowed us to stay connected while we were away. We highly recommend Patrick for future dog-sitting needs and believe he would be a great fit for your requirements as well.”

“David was a fantastic sitter for my dog and cat. He asked questions to make sure he would maintain their normal routines when needed and sent regular updates/photos. They were both very well taken care of and very comfortable with David, which I can say confidently as my cat didn’t even give me the cold shoulder when I came home (as he’s been known to do). Thanks so much David, hopefully you’ll be available the next time I need a sitter!”

“Emily was excellent, efficient, and punctual! She did a great job taking care of our 3 fur babies and promptly communicated with us the entire time. She made us feel safe that our 3 little kids were going to be well taken care of. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future!”

Gurbet K.

“Lyla did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy. My dog is itty and needed lots of out door breaks and play. Lyla was able to accommodate to my puppy’s many puppy needs. I would absolutely use Lyla’s services again and would recommend her to anyone who needs support caring for their pet.”

“She was amazing! Kept in contact and sent several pictures of both kitties every day. She was very accommodating of every request for our special-needish kitties and kept up with the demanding medication schedule. Definitely someone we will trust again!”

Nathan F.

“Kennedy was awesome. She was there for us when we had to book last minute because the person who was supposed to watch our dog bailed unexpectedly. She was receptive, considerate, kind, and communicative. I should mention that our baby is an English Bulldog. Kennedy understands the different needs of brachiocephalic breeds. And she was able to go that extra mile for us to properly care for our fur baby!”

Robin T.

“Gretchen helped us with an emergency need for house sitting. She took good care of all our animals, especially our rambunctious young dogs, and kept in touch with us all weekend. We would recommend her.”

About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of big dogs, especially older dogs, for a long time. I also have some experience with cats, birds, fish, etc. My availability is a little weird so DM me with the time you need! I'm currently a doctoral student so I have a couple of hard limits on my availability outside of which I am super flexible. Always good to DM me well in advance, I reply quickly! I think that pets will tell you what they want/need if you are patient enough to understand them. I try to figure out what they need and let them lead.

About: I've been around animals my entire life: cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, and small animals like ferrets, chinchillas, mice, etc. I love all animals but especially cats. I have experience fitting in care around my working schedule and would love to meet your pets! I currently work full time but I am available for overnight pet and house sitting - if you would like more care during the day, my fiancee is available for dog walking and drop-ins during the weekday. I am happy to care for your pets in your home, whether through dropping in and making sure they're fed, watered, and happy, or through overnight house sitting. I expect to follow any feeding instructions, medication schedules, regular playtime, or light household duties like collecting mail or taking out trash.

About: I’ve had five dogs of my own and have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs, including my beloved dachshund who was paralyzed and used a wheelchair. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and throughout my life, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, medicate, and love their pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I believe they deserve patience, affection, and individualized attention. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish, so whether your pup prefers “sit” or “siéntate,” they’re in good hands! Paws, kisses, and bilingual wishes! I work full-time, but part of my work is remote, which gives me flexibility and availability to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I understand how important consistency and companionship are for animals, and I do my best to arrange my schedule around their individual needs. I am willing to house sit and stay overnight. When caring for your pets, I follow your instructions closely, maintain their familiar routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I pay attention to their individual personalities, preferences, and needs, especially when caring for senior pets or those requiring extra assistance. Although I am happy to crate or confine your pet if that is what you feel they need, I will cuddle and spend time with your pet just as if you were home and in town. As a former real estate agent and the owner of my own home construction and remodeling company, I understand just how important it is to respect someone’s home. I’m extremely particular about cleanliness, security, and treating every property with the same care and attention I would give my own. You can trust that both your beloved pets and your home will be treated with the utmost respect, responsibility, and care. I’m also a gardener and am happy to care for your houseplants and greenery while you’re away. I understand that plants need individualized attention, too, and I’ll make sure they receive the proper watering and care. And don’t forget, plants are living beings and our leafy little pets too. Rest assured, they’ll receive the same love and attention and I won’t neglect them.

“Bryce followed all care instructions for Max. It was great to receive daily pictures of Max during walks or breaks. He did a great job caring for our family pet while being away overseas. I highly recommend him and look forward to needing him again in the future. Thanks for caring for Max!”
