“Jailon was super sweet. Did a meet and greet beforehand to be sure they got along. Made sure she had food and water and communicated a lot. I’m very happy and will use him when he’s available.”
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.
“Lauren has been a blessing! My dog is older and she takes her time with him out on his walks (he sometimes doesn't walk so well). She is considerate, professional, and I just love her!!”
About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.
“I’ve never had someone check on my dog in my home before. I am so glad I found Ashley and that she agreed to check in and walk my dog Kenya. I needed help last minute, and she agreed to walk my dog so quickly. She sent pictures and great updates about their walk and how Kenya did. I had peace of mind at work knowing that Kenya was getting her exercise and some affection. I will definitely continue to book with Ashley!!”
“Jennifer has been walking our boxer puppy on multiple last-minute occasions, and she has been great! Our boxer LOVES walks with her and is happily tired afterwards! Communication and availability has been great! Thanks for all of our last minute bookings! :) We will definitely continue to book walks!”
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.
“Alan and Ursula walked Bacchus weekly and were excellent with him. It took Bacchus a bit to warm up and Alan was very patient with him. Due to my job I often had to change my pup’s walk days and Alan was always flexible and worked with my schedule.”
“Shannon has been walking my pup for two weeks now and has been wonderful! The weather has been freezing and snowy and yet she has always showed up on time and has established a great relationship with my dog. She does a super job knowing when it’s too cold (or my dog just isn’t in the mood) to go for an extended walk and will just play with him inside a bit longer instead. Highly recommended!”
“Marissa is great! She was quick to respond to messages and did a fantastic job looking after Riley while I was at my wedding! It was so comforting to know that Riley was in good hands. I will definitely be asking Marissa to take Riley on future walks!”

Ekaterina R.
“Ekaterina loves animals of all kinds and would be a great choice to trust with your pet. She will always go the extra mile to make sure your animal is given the best care possible.”
Nikki Y.
“Nikki has been loving and taking care of my kitties for probably close to 15+ years and I think I'd probably trust her more than I even trust myself with them! I don't think I've ever met someone that loves and adores and respects animals as much as she does. She goes above and beyond, and often shows up with some kind of special treat or toy she found that the boys would like! Not only do I know she loves my cats and her cats, she volunteers her time at shelters and rescues and I've seen her volunteering and donating for countless animal fundraisers and charities and doing anything she can to help out our furry friends. She's truly the biggest animal lover I know! There's not a whole lot she wouldn't do or give to make sure an animal is safe and protected and loved...probably more than she would for most of us humans... (I'm kidding, but not really!). 😉”

Heather & David A.
“Dave and Heather are very responsible, loving dog owners and have 2 dogs of their own. When my husband and I go out of town Dave and Heather take care of our dogs , whether it be day trips or vacations . They take them for walks, weather permitting, and have regular play times with them . Our dogs feel right at home when they are with them. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for responsible trustworthy caregivers for your dogs. You can rest assured that they will be well taken care of and treat them as if they are their own.”

Mandie did very well with our really shy COVID-19 rescue pup! We hired her to walk him and take him around the neighborhood, so he can get experience with other people. She did very well with him. She also did a great job with Tasha, our Siberian Husky, who just loves a good walk around the park!
Carlie from the get-go has been communicative, caring, attentive, and professional. I have a nervous dog who can be high maintenance and she took careful note of all his neurotic tendencies (: They hit it off and it’s a relief to have peace of mind about who’s care he is in. Highly recommend!
