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.

“I’m visiting Pittsburgh and needed a sitter for my dog so I could get errands done. I was so lucky to find Ella! She was so close we walked to her house. She greeted Teddy with a treat and although he was hesitant he went easily with her. I got my running around done and Ella even sent me a picture of Teddy relaxing with her on the couch. It put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely use her again when I’m back in town.”



“Carly is amazing!! She took impeccable care of my puppy all day. It gave me total peace of mind while I had to be at work. Carly sent me several updates and many GORGEOUS photos of Rosie’s adventures. It was clear my little girl was having the best time! I can’t thank Carly enough!”


About: Overnight / day care: - 2 to 3 walks a day, around 30 minutes - at home care for 8 hours during the work week - spacious house with fenced in yard I grew up with three dogs, caring for them wrapped into my day to day routine growing up. Friends, family, and even coworkers have asked me to pet sit, allowing me to enjoy the perks of pet ownership whilst taking a hiatus on personal ownership currently. I also currently volunteer at the local shelter, which has provided me ample experience on how to manage different types of dogs with varying temperaments. I have a flexible work schedule, being able to pick and choose days/hours I work. My husband and I live quite an active lifestyle, going for daily runs/walks, and can incorporate your pet exercising needs however required. I love love love playing with dogs so rest assured your pet will be mentally and physically stimulated ! I live in a three story home with a fenced in yard with my husband. Your pet will have free rein in our entire home and have ample of outdoor space as well! If staying at a clients home I will be very respectful of your personal space and house rules !


“Nikki and Stefano were amazing!!! Sue was always so excited when we got to their home and when i would pick him up he wouldn’t want to leave! thank you for taking such good care of him!”


“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of my Winston for the day. Great communication and gave him his medicine when needed. She took him on multiple walks and he came back a happy boy. Thanks Sarah!”
