Pet Sitting Shadyside

About: Since I was in elementary school, neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to look in on their animals while they worked long hours or went out of town. I am a nurse working in the Pittsburgh area and have a flexible schedule that I would love to fill up with more furry friends. I have experience caring for birds and rodents as well! I am a nurse working with a flexible schedule and have a lot of room to fit in a walk with your dog or some play time with your cat! I have been watching friends and family's pets for years, I am very comfortable following their routine and will be detail oriented to your instructions. Your home and pet will be safe with me!

“Anne was terrific with Biscuit! She is also terrific with communication. Thanks Anne!”

“Abigail was wonderful! She was attentive, caring, and incredibly flexible with timing, and it was clear that she was genuinely dedicated to my cat’s well-being. She sent me photos of my boy while I was away, which gave me such peace of mind and made it much easier to relax and enjoy my trip. She was helpful, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care—and I’ve already booked her again for my next trip. Highly recommend!”

“Tiffany was amazing! I was going away on an international trip, and had plans change where I was going longer than originally expected. I needed to find someone to drop in on Rocco on short notice, and Tiffany was able to set up a meet & greet very quickly! She was also very sweet & kind, and took great photos of Rocco while I was away :) I would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.

“Krista is a wonderful pet sitter! She went over & above in her care and attention to my kitty, and gave me regular updates for which I was very grateful. I highly recommend Krista;your pet will in good hands!”

She was a happy lady evident in the photos shared :) We have already requested he take care of Bella again, thanks again Alex!”

“Tiffany was great and took good care of our boys. She was easy to communicate with and responsive. Sent pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend!”

Jessica R.

“Jessica is truly amazing. Our plans fell through with someone else helping watch our cat and she was available within a two-days notice. She immediately bonded with our cat during the meet-and-greet. Shes reliable, communicates very well, and is a pleasure to work with. We are very much looking forward to being repeat customers of hers!”

“Clytie was super great with looking after our cat and gave very detailed notes on the visit which made me feel really good about how everything was going. Our cat warmed up to her super quickly so I think that’s a green flag.”

About: Although I’ve cared for only a few pets for about 5 months, the owners have consistently called me back, which I believe speaks to the trust and care I provide. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and love the joy they bring. I am highly organized, detail-oriented, and committed to following regulations. If needed, I’m not afraid to ask for help to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. My goal is always to provide the highest level of care and attention to every pet I look after. As a graduate student, my schedule may be demanding, but I am still able to accommodate pet care around my studies. I am available to check in on your pet in the late afternoons or evenings during the weekdays, anytime on Saturdays, and early morning, afternoon, or evening on Sundays. I will do my best to keep my schedule flexible to meet your pet’s needs and ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. While I may not have extensive experience caring for pets, I am genuinely a pet lover, and pets tend to respond well to me. I am highly reliable and dedicated to following your instructions to ensure the best care for your furry friend. You can trust me to keep your pet happy, safe, and well-cared for. I’ll do everything I can to provide a loving and secure environment for your pet.

“Morgan is very kind and responsive. After each visit she takes time to leave very detailed messages of her visit. She quickly has gotten to know my dog and knows how to understand her body language. I feel very comfortable with her taking care of my dog.”

Mikayla P.

“Akira is a great cat sitter, went the extra mile for Frank and was so communicative and pleasant. Highly recommend!”

Alexander H.

“Abigayle was great doing drop in visits with our dog. He is normally anxious and takes a while to warm up to new people but it didn’t take long at all with Abigayle. She is very punctual and great with communication. Your pet will be well cared for.”

Tim R.

“Libby has been so great to my dog Fox! She always communicates if there’s any change to the schedule and I know Fox is super grateful to have her drop in and keep him company!”

Morgan Z.

“Lindsay did a wonderful job, I can tell that my cat was well cared for while I was away. She was very communicative and I really appreciated the detailed notes and variety of photos! I would not hesitate to book with her the next time I am away, thanks again for taking such great care of Peanut!”

Olivia K.

“Skylar is an absolute gem! From the moment we met him, it was clear he genuinely loves animals and truly cares. Rookie took to him instantly, which says a lot since he can be particular about people. Skylar is reliable, communicative, and quick to respond with questions or concerns. He treats him like his own dog. I never worry when Rookie is in Skylar's care. I can't recommend Skylar highly enough. If you want someone trustworthy, warm, and truly dedicated, he's your guy!”

About: I've had more than half a dozen cats and dogs each throughout my life. I've helped feed them, give them water, walk them, and try to give them the happiest lives possible. These pets have been my best friends, even more so than most people that I've met. I absolutely love animals and always make them my priority! I'm a student at the University of Pittsburgh looking for a part time job when I am home on break, and weekend and afternoon work when I am at school. I love pets and tend to have a lot of free time at home and on weekends! My pets are technically my parents', but I often walk them because I want to get them outside and it's fun for me. I also feed them and make sure they have water in their dishes. I usually take my dogs as far as they want to go, whether it's for just a block, or for a few miles. I love to snuggle up with my dogs more than anything!

“Ashley is so great with my high energy dog who loves to play. She is always game to tire her out and I appreciate that she can be available on shorter notice.”
