“Nikki was our best rover booking yet!!! She came over three times this week for lunchtime walks. She was super attentive and even gave us some recommendations on how to keep him entertained. Nikki is very knowledgeable and caring, especially with little puppies. Would highly recommend booking her.”

About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my entire life, along with horses, reptiles, and birds. I spent several years working for a pet care business, worked in customer care for a holistic pet store, have house-sat through Rover, and have boarded animals for friends. I recently lived with 3 German Shepherds, a Husky, and a two cats. I can handle animals of all energy levels. I am always taking care of animals! I have a dog of my own and often look after my friends’ and family’s pets. I have a flexible schedule so I always try to be there when people need me. Always cautious, ready to respect what an animal expects and needs, and more than happy to give them all the love and play, play, play

“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!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover! I have had dogs my whole life, and currently have 2 senior dogs that I am trusted to take care of. In addition, I pet sit for neighbors when they are away, and have done so throughout high school and college. I also adopted a cat in 2021, doing the necessary research for cat ownership! And have had a gecko, so I am no stranger to reptiles. I am currently a student at Pitt, majoring in education. I am available Mondays (evenings), Tuesdays (morning/evening), Wednesday (evening), Thursdays (morning/evening), Fridays (evenings), Saturdays, and Sundays!! The longest I am away when petsitting is no more than 6 hours (Mondays and Wednesdays). I try to be as available as possible when taking care of pets. This means staying with them as much as possible, spending the night, etc. At the owners request! I also don’t mind doing work such as bathroom cleanup, brushing, certain foods, administering pills, etc. Whenever I take care of someone’s animals, I like to treat them as my own and prioritize their wellbeing!

“Shannon has walked bear 2 times now! Despite the snowy cold weather for the first walk, Shannon was still willing to walk bear, which I really appreciate! Took photos and followed all the instructions I gave about giving treats! Thank you!!!”

“I cannot say enough about Gabriella. She is incredibly professional and has such amazing, positive energy. We have two beagles, and from the very first meet and great, they felt completely comfortable and excited around her. Which says a lot! It is truly clear that she knows how to connect with dogs. Every walk last week seems to have gone smooth, reliable, and based by the pictures I received, full of happy tail wags. I feel totally at ease knowing my pups are in such great hands. Highly recommended.”

“We were in Pittsburgh for our wedding and were lucky enough to book with a few days notice. She was responsive and communicative. Very easy to book with and seemed capable of handling our awkward and anxious catahoula tripod.”

Keara E.

“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 owned my rescue dog Rita for five years, and grew up caring for cat and in dogs in my household. Rita is a high-energy dog who requires lots of exercise and has developed some special needs as she has gotten older. I will give any pet the care and attention that I give to Rita! I am generally available for walks and drop-in visits in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I have some flexibility to meet additional needs, as well. I keep my dog leashed and at my side whenever we are on a walk and closely monitor her when she is interacting with other dogs or people. I am happy to treat your pets with the same attentive care that I give to Rita!
