About: Hello! My name is Rachael, and I'm a graduate student who loves animals. My black cat, Zelda, has lived and traveled with me through six different countries and now lives with me here in Pittsburgh. I was raised in a household full of dog people and always lived with at least two dogs at any given time, so I have a lot of experience caring for and playing with dogs of various sizes and personalities. I also am experienced with caring for various other kinds of pets, from hedgehogs to lizards to fish to frogs. I'm a PhD student with a lot of flexibility in my schedule, so I typically schedule walks and drop-ins for the morning or evening. I also have no classes on Fridays and a lot of flexibility on weekends! I like to fit walks and visits into my daily routine in a way that helps me to get some extra steps in. When petsitting in a client's home, I always review all the instructions carefully. It's helpful for me to know as much as possible about the pet, such as any health or behavioral concerns I should be aware of, likes and dislikes, etc. I always respect a pet's boundaries and prioritize their safety and wellbeing. I also make sure to check in with the client regularly and alert them immediately of any concerns that need to be brought to their attention.

“Amy is an EXCELLENT sitter. I’ve booked her multiple times now, she is communicative and I have no worries about my pup when she’s sitting for me. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve looked after multiple dogs of different breeds and sizes so I have experience looking after nearly all kinds of dogs. I am capable of also looking after multiples dogs at once, truly caring for them, and playing with them. My wife and I will spend our time and efforts to make your dog feel at home. As I have dogs of my own, it will fit like a glove as I will be caring for your dog alongside my own. I will treat your dog like my own. Dogs are very important to me regardless whether it’s my own dog or someone else’s. I will make sure that dog is safe and feels cared for in any environment.

About: I love dogs and grew up with them! Though I don't have the space for them now, I've been missing some puppy playtime! Both of my parents are vets as well, so I'm also pretty well versed in all things pet care! I do work full-time, but a lot of my job can be done from home depending on the amount of notice I have before discussing that with my boss. That being said my weekends are pretty open as well as the occasional monday. I typically work from home every other monday! I love all animals! Growing up I had 2 dogs and then foster failed 2 cats! Those 2 cats currently live with my parents, but I'm bringing them up here when I move into my own place. Both of my roommates also have cats!

“Divya was amazing! She sent us incredibly detailed daily updates while checking in on our three cats and you could tell how much she loved hanging out with them. She also went above and beyond to help us out when a smoke detector ran out of batteries and started beeping while we were gone. We would absolutely love to have her back!”

“Thank you for visiting with our kitties they were well cared for and so cool Nina popped out to visit. They hide . They are so happy when we came home. We will let you know when we are going to travel again.”

“Breanna was fantastic! So communicative and my dog Emma loved her. She spent quality time with Emma and made sure she had everything she needed, Emma misses her and we will definitely request her again!”

About: I'm a dog mom myself & I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care requires total peace of mind, which is why I prioritize strict attention to routine, safety, and proactive communication. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.

“Ann was great! She left my home very clean and was an excellent communicator. I was very nervous to leave my elderly cat alone for the first time in years, especially since he developed health issues, and Ann did a great job taking care of him. I would definitely recommend.”

“Ryan was an excellent find! Pleasant, dependable, and responsive, he did a fantastic job of taking care of my three cats while we were away for almost two weeks. Not only did he take care of my boys, he also brought in all the packages that we received while we were gone. He will be my first call when I need a pet care from here on out. Thanks Ryan!!”

“Adisyn was amazing! My cat Panang really loved her. She was super attentive and gave updates regularly that included photos. We can’t wait to have her visit him again.”

“Clareese did an awesome job with our Anni. She let me know when she was there and took lots of pictures and even a video while taking care of Anni. We would definitely use her again in the future.”

“Becca was always communicative and kind as she helped with me, just moving to town knowing no one, and leaving my one year old bengal. They played and had lots of fun and already plan on booking her again (and sent her to some friends). On time, lots of pictures and very well loved report from the cat!”

“Alex is a pro. We have one dog that can be aggressive towards new people and strangers. But he took it all in stride. Alex handled our dogs with ease and care on Christmas day. Highly recommend him as a dog wallker and sitter.”

Kevin E.

“Disha was absolutely incredible! My wife and I were away for 10 days, and she took amazing care of our cat, Little John, who is truly our pride and joy. She stopped by every day, provided great updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Disha is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
