Dog Walking Southside Slopes

About: Almost 2 years of pet food store retail experience with training courses on pet care, basic pet training and deep knowledge of pet nutrition. Taken care of both my dogs since puppies (now 9, and 1 years old). I volunteer with several rescues and have helped set up fundraising/exposure events to help rescue pets find a home! I’m a full time student at Duquesne University pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I’m relatively flexible and just work around my class schedule. I have plenty of experience with my own two dogs, both being rescues, and plenty more experience with customer pets that would come into the store. I also volunteer with rescues shelters walking, bathing, and taking them to the park.

“Thanks so much for walking Turtle! Even in cold weather, Tiffany made sure Turtle got his exercise and bathroom break! Very grateful and will reach out again!”

“Sid has been walking our 100 lbs. Doberman for a couple of months, and we couldn’t be happier. We were hesitant at first for someone to access our home while we were at work, but Sid very quickly made us feel comfortable. Sid has always been punctual, professional, great with our dobie and overall exceeded our expectations; highly recommend booking.”

About: My love for dogs is unmatched! I’m a junior in college who absolutely adores dogs and also happens to want to make money for tuition😂 For the summer : *for house sitting, Im available every day but on weekdays I would need to leave from 4:30-7 to go to work. Mon-Thurs: any time up until 3:30pm or after 7pm Fri, Sat, Sun : free all day I am super flexible! During the summer I have a very open schedule - so we can work around it more. Once I start school again I’ll update my availability! I will treat your animals with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Everything I do, I put 110% into, and I’ll make sure your pups feel loved! I always make sure to check if there’s ever notes from the client, get the important things done (like meds, food, necessary walks/bathroom) and then be able to focus on playtime or whatever your pup wants!

“Ava was great with my pup! She responded quickly, was reliable, and took her on a nice walk. I really appreciated the prompt photo updates and communication throughout the visit. I would definitely book with Ava again and would recommend her to others looking for a dependable dog walker.”

About: I have grown up caring big and small dogs of neighbors, friends, and family and will always let your dog take the lead when getting to know me. I am a very active person and love being able to give your furry friends their exercise with long walks, playing outside, or even runs! I will diligently follow any instructions/guidelines you set for me and will be sure to send thorough feedback and pictures for each visit. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule varies a bit throughout the week. I will always be communicative about times I’m available to ensure your pets receive the best care. I consider myself an extremely thorough and reliable person and will follow all guidelines and instructions concerning your pets diligently. Important aspects of care, like diet, medication, and more will be followed accurately to ensure the health and safety of your pet.

“I needed someone consistent for when I’m at work and Jacqueline has been coming to walk my girl for the past few weeks. She has great communication, is wonderful with my dog, and is a caring dog walker. I would hire her anytime and will continue to do so.”

About: With 10+ years of pet-sitting experience, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets belonging to family, friends, coworkers, and Rover clients. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, meals, or cuddles, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. My flexible schedule as a caregiver allows me to be available throughout the day, making it easy to accommodate regular visits, last-minute bookings, and emergency pet care. Whether your plans change unexpectedly or you simply need someone dependable, I’m happy to help and can often be there on short notice. I understand that inviting someone into your home is an act of trust, and I never take that responsibility lightly. I treat every home with the same respect, care, and professionalism I would expect for my own—keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it while giving your pet the loving attention they deserve.

“Thanks so much to Lara for filling in when my dog walker was out of town. It was so appreciated and I will certainly be contacting her again in the future for fill ins!”

About: I am a current kennel attendant at Camp Bow Wow and a volunteer at Kitty Queen Cat Rescue for many years! I have plenty of experience with all ages and breeds of animals! I am completely available outside of my doggie daycare schedule! It does change weekly, but I don’t mind squeezing your pets into my schedule! I am very well educated on the love and care that our furbabies need to thrive! I pride myself in my commitment to building a trust filled relationship with every animal I come across!

“Ella is AMAZING. my dog is extremely anxious and skittish around new people and Ella made a HUGE effort to come over and spend time with Mellie to get her comfortable. She made an extra effort and it meant so much to me. If you have an anxious pet you know how important it is for people to be patient with them and Ella definitely was. 10/10 would recommend 🩷”

About: I brought our two cats, Chili and Lok-Lok, all the way from China, but I grew up with dogs in my family and love both. I’ve taken care of my family’s and friends’ dogs and I heard about this app so I thought it might be fun to give it a try. Whenever I get called on to dog-sit for my friend here in Pittsburgh I like to go to the dog parks near the South Side river or jog along with them, rain or snow, and socialize with other dogs. Looking forward to meeting yours! I’m a PhD student at the University of Pittsburgh so summer and winter breaks are relatively free, and usually I’m only “working” 2-3 half days per week. I have to do a lot of reading and thinking so getting out of the house is a good way to take a break and process. I have a fenced yard where I do some gardening and let our cats out every day to chase bugs and birds. My friends have stayed over with their dogs and I just move the cats to the second floor and keep them there while the dogs take the first and the yard.

About: I've taken care of pets for over 10 years. I love both dogs and cats, and use my experience as a studio photographer to take portraits of people's pets. I'm experienced with training new dogs and caring for older pets. I work as a studio photographer- most of my workday is spent at home editing photos on my computer. I'm typically available during the week and the weekend throughout the day. I don't currently have any pets in my home, so no need to worry about other dogs or cats. I also live 5 minutes from a dog park if your dog enjoys socializing with other dogs!

“Great communication, punctual, sweet with my dog, productive walks (poop & pee everytime!) and provides good updates ! And helps with last minute bookings when she can. Big fan of Abigayle!”

Maureen H.

“Denyal sent me updates and was very patient with my dogs. This was our first time using a dog-walking service and one of my dogs was a bit nervous to meet someone new, but Denyal got him to warm up to her and have fun on his walk! Highly recommend!”
