We were very nervous about using Rover for the first time and leaving Frank, our Frenchie, with a sitter for the weekend. Our experience couldn't have been better as Josh was incredibly communicative and kind throughout the entire process. He was flexible with the drop-off/pick-up times and the fact that he works from home was great as Frank is used to being with me as I also work from home. We will definitely be reaching out to Josh again for any of our future pet sitting needs!

I was slightly leery about leaving my dogs with just anyone on Rover. Matthew eased my fears from the beginning. His flexibility and accommodations to our schedule and catering to our dachshunds and their needs was above and beyond. The photo updates with smiling happy pups always came at perfect times when feeling any worry. I will definitely will use Matt again if he will have us! Lol

Erin did a great job caring for my cat Juniper. Juniper is very shy but it was clear that Erin made her quickly feel at home. She will be my first contact next time I am planning a trip out of town.

Jason never hesitates to say yes to pet sitting any of the family pets, from the inlaws' border collie to the sister-in-law's chihuahua and husky. Jason has been a dog owner his entire life and therefore has a natural and relaxed way of being around animals. He works from home many days, so his in-home pet sitting services mean that your pet will get lots of attention.

I cannot say enough great things about our experience of boarding our six year old maltese Griswold with Kathleen!!! I was seriously apprehensive about boarding our dog for five days since he has never been away from me for more than one night. While he is quite loveable, he is also extremely high strung as are most maltese dogs. Well what a waste of time for me to be worried... my fear quickly melted with the pictures that Kathleen sent me throughout our trip. My dog looked like HE was having his own vacation!!! lol He looked more relaxed and happy than we did. All the nice long walks and special treatment spoiled him to no end. The only thing I needed to worry about was whether or not he would want to come home with me when I came to retrieve him!! :) He did come home with me, but I have to say.. he seems truly relaxed... I would have never believed it ... I now have to up my dog-mom game and walk him and spoil him more. If you are hesitating to book with Kathleen... don't! You and your dog will be so happy you did. Thanks so much Kathleen!!!! PS: Im sure Griswold cant wait for our (his) next vacation.

Jess and Anthony took very good care of Lily. They took special time to make sure she ate and got her medicine. They gave her lots of attention and pets which she loves! They have a very nice fenced in yard to keep the dogs safe. We would have them keep Lily again anytime.

Sabrina was able to accommodate my cat on extremely short notice. She is kind and a great communicator. I received lots of pictures and videos from her, and my very shy cat warmed up to her right away! She has two awesome little cats, Marty and Salem, who were great with their strange house guest. I will absolutely book with Sabrina again and would recommend her to anyone

My dog Teddy had a great time staying with Ellyn and her family while I was in another city for a few days. Their home has the ideal setup for hosting, right in a convenient city neighborhood with a fenced yard and dog door as well as direct adjacency to a major park with trails for longer walks and an older dog of the same breed as Teddy for canine companionship and toy sharing. Ellyn was super attentive to my dog and frequently sent cute photos to set my mind at ease that he was happy and being well taken care of. The main thing that appeals to me with this caregiver is that my dog was living with a family who were happy and excited to have him staying there. Ellyn’s husband and children were so delighted to meet Teddy when we arrived I knew he was in a great place. This was my first time using Rover and Teddy’s first time boarding since I adopted him last year. I really didn’t want to use a kennel while I was away but my friend who had cared for my previous dog has moved out of the area and I was having trouble finding other options. This worked out great because it was a family atmosphere with caring people. I would definitely seek Ellyn’s services again if I have future need of them. A million stars! ♾️⭐️???⭐️♾️

Sadie really enjoyed her stay with Piper! Piper was very responsive and incredibly flexible with pick up and drop off (which was great because our flight was delayed coming home). Piper sent regular updates and lots of photos of our sweet girl! I definitely recommend Piper and would love for Sadie to stay with her again next time we travel :)

Why book Rover dog boarding in Pittsburgh?

Pittsburgh pet parents want to make sure their dogs are well taken care of when they're away, and that's where Rover comes in. Dog sitters in Pittsburgh will treat your pups like part of their family, and offer them all the comforts of home, unlike a kennel. If you're looking for dog boarding in Pittsburgh, try a Rover sitter who'll care your pup in their own home, offering plenty of one-on-one attention.

Why do dog owners love Pittsburgh?

Residents of The 'Burgh are treated daily to a city full of history, entertaining professional sports leagues, and cultural institutions. Home to educational institutions like Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh - plus cultural attractions including the Andy Warhol Museum - it's often ranked one of the country's most livable cities. So it's easy to see why dog owners love living in Pittsburgh. Plus, there are tons of dog-friendly green spaces and friendly Rover dog sitters and walkers throughout the city.

Which parks in Pittsburgh are good for dog walks?

Referred to as OLEAs, Pittsburgh has many Off-Leash Exercise Areas your dog to enjoy. Take Frick Park dog park on Squirrel Hill - it's a massive 644 acres for you and your dog to explore. There are separate fenced areas for running, lots of trails, and a swimming hole for dogs near Lower Tranquil Trail. Though not quite as large, Riverview Dog Park at Perry North is still a huge park to visit at 259 acres total, with two acres fenced off just for off-leash fun near the Allegheny Observatory. At Bernard Dog Run in Lawrenceville, you'll find a bustling half-acre park under the 40th Street Bridge. There are separate play areas for large and small dogs to keep pups safe and having fun with other dogs their own size. Dogs need to stay on leash at Point State Park, but that shouldn't stop you from spending a day walking its three main hiking trails. It's right downtown in the Golden Triangle, so you can't miss it!

What Pittsburgh neighborhoods are good for dog owners?

Pittsburgh has over 90 vibrant and unique neighborhoods, so deciding where to visit or even settle down can be a tough decision. From S&D Polish Deli to the Pennsylvania Macaroni Co., there are tons of interesting and eclectic shops and grocers in the Strip District, just east of downtown Pittsburgh. If you're looking for something a little more upscale, take your shopping over to the Shadyside area. You can get a dose of culture and intellectual discussion in Oakland, where you'll find the 53-story gothic building that houses the University of Pittsburgh's Cathedral of Learning. If you need a place to stay, check out the edgy, metroplication chic of the Ace Hotel or Indigo Hotel in the East Liberty neighborhood. Looking for a bite to eat? Head over to Pittsburgh's "Little Italy," Bloomfield. Take a bridge from downtown to discover North Shore and North Side, home to Heinz Field and PNC Park, and be sure to get a glimpse of the larger-than-life Mister Rogers' statue nearby. You can also take a nice stroll down the tree-lined streets of the charming Sewickley neighborhood, or catch an amazing view in Mt. Washington.
