About: I have grown up with many dogs and I volunteer at my local shelter walking dogs now so I really love being with all dogs! I work full time but I have some flexibility during the days here and there and I am free all evenings throughout the week and all weekends I provide individualized care and attention for each pet. If I can tell a pet wants to be alone, I will let them do their thing. If they want to play, I will play with them. I will read the dog and cater to what they want to do!
About: I have been involved in dog rescue for 10 years. I have dog walked and dog sat neighbors, family, and friends pets. I have Foster dogs for rescues in the Pittsburgh surrounding area. I also do in home dog grooming. ❗🐾 I am currently doing in home grooming so that leaves me available at home throughout the day Monday through Sunday which leaves me available to be Hands-On with the dog(s) I am caring for. I do have a fenced in yard but I also do like taking dogs for walks while I'm dog sitting. I do own a few dogs and a few cats. My dogs and cats are very well mannered and are dog friendly.
About: I've been taking care of my grandmothers pets since I was 9. I've learned to take care of tiny dogs all the way to very large dogs. Also learned how to take care of cats! I've learned how to know what care is best for each pet and knowing their limits and boundaries is key. I've also taken care of many senior dogs in my life. I love all dogs, cats and each one of their different personalities! I'm working part time on weekends only, and trying to save up for school. So I am very flexible when needed and I can do overnights as well! I am very dedicated to each animal and their environment! I can do anything needed for your pet, even if it seems a bit silly! I understand each pet has specific needs and wants and I am able to do it all to make your pet feel comfortable in your home while you're away! I can do overnight if needed! I'd keep in contact with you and update about anything you would like to know!
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.
About: I've cared for various kinds of pets over my whole life and at one point was able to become an AKC trained dog trainer! I've since changed jobs to a patient sitter at a nearby hospital and miss the new animals being in my life. I'd love to get a chance to meet your pets and help care for them! I work 3 inconsistent days from either 630am-pm or 630pm-am throughout the week but can make changes as needed to work up to 3 days a week for a client outside of that! I feel that all pets have a wide range of personalities and needs but the important thing is to work with them to achieve their physical and emotional needs! I have 2 cats with vastly different attitudes and I make sure to tailor my care for them in specific ways like being a safety person for my cat while she's eating or training my partners cat to ask for attention and treats more politely. When it comes to dogs I have a training in positive reinforcement and dog behaviors and will try to engage with breed specific enrichment on top of whatever schedule the pet parents have for their dog.

If I am providing services in your home, my goal is to make your fur babies as comfortable as possible and give them as much love and attention as they deserve while their parent is away. I will happily follow your typical routine you have set for them while you are away!

“Rick is phenomenal with my fur babies. His warmth and genuine love for dogs will put any pet (and pet parent) at ease. I highly recommend him if you want to come home to a happy and spoiled doggo.”
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.”

Summer Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Hannah was Very thorough and helpful and asked a lot of questions to make sure Ellie was well taken care of.
Ben’s years of experience and knowledge are immediately clear to anyone who meets him & his dog, Geordi. Ben was extremely gentle with our 80 lb Newfoundland puppy, Mambo. Mambo can be hard to handle, but Ben expertly guided him and didn’t let him run amok. Mambo came home happy & tired from their walk - a busy pet parent’s dream!
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!
Brandy was very communicative and easy to collaborate with! Really appreciated her great photos and updates when I was out of town. Would definitely reach out to her again!
Nicholas saved the day! He was able to cover last minute when a friend was hurt and couldn’t walk her dog. Pup got a great workout. Would recommend!
Alexis did a great job walking Vino! She got him to go to the bathroom (which is very hard to do on a walk) so I really appreciate that! Thank you Alexis!
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!
Madie was amazing to work with! She was very prompt with arriving on time and a great communicator. She handled my dog’s quirks with ease and I’m so appreciative to her for being so reliable!
