“Dodger came back happy! Michelle sent photos and updates everyday and was very mindful of our requests. I'm insuring his behavior. We recommend Michelle and will be using her again in a few weeks!”


“Tia and her family were great! Jax had a great time. She is great with communicating and sent lots of pics/videos! Definitely recommend her to anyone in the Pittsburgh area.”


“Pam was a great sitter. She sent pics and updated me during her stay. My baby Kali absolutely loved her and it was nice she had another dog to plan with as well. Would definitely book with her again!”



“We would like to give Ali 10 stars! She was the best possible caregiver for our nervous goofy dog. She sent dear photos and videos during our trip, and it was so sweet to hear how she spoke to Lucky. On top of all of the expert care, she was extremely gracious and flexible when I made a mistake with the booking dates. We feel so fortunate to have found Ali.”


“Christine takes very good care of my Winnie. She's reliable and communicates all the things you want to know along w pictures. I've had Winnie stay with her multiple times and will rebook in the future.”


“Very grateful to Brittany and Pippin for caring for Lilah while we were away. Brittany sent photos daily, which I always appreciate, and Pippin kept her well occupied with lots of playtime!”



“Stefano and Nikki were great to work with. They took great care of Odie and even sent us pictures to keep us updated. Would certainly use them again if in the area.”


“Sebastian was great! My dog had a great time and was taken care of very well. I was particularly nervous as I’d never used Rover before but Sebastian made the process much easier. Would definitely have my dog stay with him again!”


“We are so grateful for Erin!!! Our pup wound up with pneumonia after a kennel boarding and we had a very expensive trip planned for a couple days later. We couldn’t take her back to a multi-dog boarding situation in case she was contagious and she needed space to rest and recover. Erin was so fast with her response and very accommodating for her needs! We got pictures/updates daily and could tell she loved the park by her house. THANK YOU AGAIN!!”


“we're so lucky to have found Mary for our pup. She has a great set up for dog sitting and very friendly dogs of her own. Will be using her any time we need dog day care or boarding!”


About: I've volunteered with animals since I was 14, and up until a year ago, I was running my own rescue. I began pet sitting to help pay vet bills for the strays I took in. I have specialized largely in neonatal and senior care, including administering medicine, facilitating special diets, and offering personalized enrichment (including socialization for ferals). I also fed, rehabilitated, vaccinated, and spayed street dogs while living in Mexico. I plan my schedule around the animals in my life and I wouldn't have it any other way. They are my family. Handcrafting my pets' meals are the first and last task I do everyday, whilst providing a whole lot of love in the hours in-between. When I have a foster dog, the highlight of my day is the hour long walk when I get home from work. Ultimately, I'm extremely flexible and patient because I've come to learn that pets & strays don't operate on our human schedules, and each day I can dedicate to helping them thrive is a blessing. Currently, I live with my roommate in a sizable 2 bedroom apartment that has direct access to our large, fully fenced-in yard. I have two cats - both are chubby, spoiled to the max, and free roam the house. Pets can be kept separate easily if needed.

“Denise and her husband did such a wonderful job with my dog, Parker. It was my first time using their services and they made me feel comfortable and worry free while I was away with frequent updates and photos. Highly recommend! Hope to be able to book with them again soon. Thank you :)”


“Tessa took amazing care of my senior dog. She followed all instructions (my guy has a few medications to take every day) and provided daily updates and pictures. Would highly recommend!”


“Diana was a wonderful sitter for my Henry! She sent me photos and kept me up to date on any concerns I had regarding Henry’s health and new surroundings. She was also flexible with keeping Henry a few extra hours when my flight was delayed.”

Autumn A.
“Autumn has taken care of my 2 cats (and sometimes additional fosters) for the last several years when I do trips back home. She does a wonderful job. It’s always nerve wracking to be away from my children and the only thing that puts my mind at ease is that they’re in the hands I trust most, other than my own. She always goes above and beyond when it comes to cleanliness, playtime, and mealtimes. My favorite thing about Autumn is her rescue work. I love that provides that same level of dedication and love for every animal she possibly can, not just her own pets and not just paying clients. It feels good to know supporting her simultaneously gives back to my community. Make sure you ask if you need any product recommendations for your cat, LOL. Before I met her, I’d never seen a house so full of pet toys and furniture. She really takes the idea of enrichment to another level. I’ve taken her up on several recommendations, all of which my cats have loved. If cared for by Autumn, I guarantee you would be treating your fur babies to a lovely time.”
