“I don't even know where to begin... Having just moved back to the Pgh area, I wasn't sure who to trust in taking care of my pup. Dmitra has provided me with the reassurance that she will take great care of Luna and give her lots of love when I am not around. Not only was she highly recommended but we are so happy to call her our friend!!!”
“Brittani walked my pup for the first time tonight. I needed someone to walk him last minute and Brittani was available very quickly. She fed and walked Harry and also posted little updates to her Instagram page from her walk with Harry. Would definitely recommend her and will use her again!!”
About: I have 5 pets that I have taken care of my whole life, and I have taken care of a variety of cats and dogs for neighbors, friends, and family. Feeding, walking, playing, medicine, and bathing, I have done it all, and I love to do it! I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to help out whenever needed! I love to be active, so walking and playing with your pet is a perfect fit! I have plenty of parks and green space around my area with places for dogs to run around safely with fountains for them to get water during hot days.
About: I have had both dogs and cats my entire life and even had a ferret at one point. I am a dog walker and cat and dog sitter (or cat walker if you would like!). Some of my current clients have been with me for 5 years. I also volunteer at a local shelter. I can drop in after 3 on most days since I am a student and weekends I am more flexible so I can work around your needs. I have a closed yard for my German Shepard and my cat is strictly an indoor cat. We use a mixture of dry and wet food for both animals and have frequent potty breaks for the dog.
“Therese was prompt and took some really cute pictures. She was not fazed by our slightly reactive German Shepherd. Will definitely be scheduling with her again.”
“Alex was great! I introduced him to both of my dogs, and I think they senses his calm, chill vibe and were into it. I am planning to reach back out to him in the coming weeks for walking and house sitting.”
About: Hi! We're Nikki and Stefano. We've both had dogs in our homes as long as we can remember and won't ever have it any other way. We've had dogs ranging from toy chihuahuas to heelers to our current pups, a Great Pyreneese/lab and an Australian Shephard/Red Heeler. So any dog size or breed is fine with us. We love spending time with animals and we would love to get a chance to meet new dog friends and give them the same love and attention we give to our own pups while also meeting and learning more about each different breed and their personalities. My wife works from home and i work in the office 3 days out of the week, so we are 100% flexible with our days to watch, walk, or play with your pups. I work in the office Tuesdays through Thursdays. My wife works from home and is available to watch and play with the pups all day. We have a good sized fenced back yard that our two dogs love to run around in so your dogs will have plenty of time to hang out and play outside or relax and take naps inside.

“Ashley is absolutely incredible! She brings her own poop bags and treats and is very attentive to Finn’s needs. She sends me picture and video updates which soothes my separation anxiety! I am going to continue to use her services, as Finn already is attached to her.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for dogs comes naturally to me. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a routine, or just keeping your dog company while you're away, I offer dependable, attentive care with plenty of affection. I treat every dog like my own and aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're gone. I just graduated from Auburn University, and have just moved to Pittsburgh from Memphis! My availability is extremely open and I am willing to work days, nights, weekends, or whatever is needed. At the moment, the fence in my backyard is undergoing repairs, so I’m not offering pet care in my home right now. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in their own environment, where they feel most at ease. Working in your home allows me to stick closely to your pet’s routine and provide one-on-one attention in a space that’s familiar and comfortable for them. I’m reliable, respectful of your space, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.
About: I have always had dogs growing up, and I have been watching other dogs for many years. I work with both big and small dogs. I work Monday through Friday 9-5 but i am available before and after work as well as weekends. I am also available Wednesdays all day I believe in taking things slow and earning trust. Animals deserve to be respected in their homes, and I think this is key to good vibes

About: Growing up, my father had 7 dogs at any given time. Big dogs too. I can handle whatever your dog throws at me, because I'm basically a dog care veteran. I'm going to be working a part time unpaid internship soon, but a girl has gotta earn money to live in the city and go to college. I have the utmost respect for anyone who might invite me to care for their animal. I will repay that trust tenfold by making sure your dog is safe and healthy. I'll follow whatever specifics you have regarding your pet to the letter. Also, plenty of pets and love for your dog no matter what.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was young. My entire family in total has a seven dogs in which I have watched and taken care of these dogs on several occasions. My sisters have had me watch and take care of their dogs during their busier days. When I return home my neighbors have asked me to watch their dogs when they are on vacation. I am off work from Tuesday through Thursday. I am free all day long and will be able to provide all my attention and unconditional care for your dogs. Since my apartment building is dog friendly there is gated area where they can run and be free and there is plenty of space to walk them within the courtyard of the building. Also if I am in your home I can crate them if you desire.

Every animal in her care becomes part of her heart, and it shows in everything she does. Whether it's cuddling on the couch, taking long, thoughtful walks, or simply being present and attentive to a pet's needs, Pawarisa offers a level of warmth and emotional care that goes beyond basic responsibility. Her calm and gentle presence has a way of soothing even the most anxious or shy pets. What stands out most is how much joy Pawarisa brings to the lives of the animals they care for. It's not just about feeding, walking, or playing—it's about creating a sense of trust, comfort, and unconditional love. Any pet lucky enough to be in Pawarisa’s care is truly in the best hands. I can’t recommend Pawarisa highly enough for anyone looking for a caretaker who will love their pet like family.”

“Divya took care of my 2 dogs while we are on vacation. We couldn’t be happier.”
Emily M.
“For as long as I've known Emily, she's been amazing with animals. It's easy to see with every interaction with them how much she cares about their happiness and well-being. My dog, Pippin, always loves seeing her and getting to play with her!”
Josh K.
“Josh was great and always on time. He walked and fed my blind and deaf dog for 4 days. Highly recommended”
Eva H.
“Eva is phenomenal with pets. She is often my chosen pet sitter for my dog Winnie (who is a little bit of a temperamental doodle) and Winnie loves Eva more than me. She's always so excited when Eva arrives, and worn out by the time I'm home because Eva makes sure that she takes the time to play with her, walk her, and love on her. She gives her undivided attention to your pet, and in turn is rewarded with love, affection, and loyalty. Eva has even worked difficult knots and matting out of my dog's hair on occasion with patience and love. She is very responsible and has always followed my walking and feeding instructions closely. I've also had the pleasure of seeing Eva interact with and watch other dogs, and can confidently say that her patience, love, and affection is not reserved for just Winnie. She loves all dogs and pays close attention to them, noticing their quirks, habits, and preferences. She really is amazing and I would highly recommend.”
