“Regan has been walking my dog for months! I love having her. During that time my puppy was just 12 weeks old when we started and she’s been so flexible along the way as my puppy learned & grew. Thanks Regan!! 10/10 would recommend!”
“Dmitra was wonderful with our cat, Lily! Very easy to communicate with and provided lots of cuddles while we were away. We hope to use her services on future trips.”
“Iana was fantastic! Very communicative and good with our two dogs. She spent time with them and made sure to update us each visit. She was very flexible and accommodating so we will seek her again.”
“Ashley & Nick did just a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat while I was out of town! From the outset, I was impressed by their professional approach and attention to detail. I received regular updates and lots of pics, so I knew the pets were getting plenty of love, outdoor time, and enrichment. I would recommend without hesitation!”
“Carol was absolutely wonderful with our cat while we were out of town! She provided daily updates with pictures, showing that our cat was happy, eating well, and had a clean litter box. It gave us such peace of mind to know our pet was in great hands. We truly appreciated the thoughtful care and communication—thank you, Carol!”
“Im trying to find a sitter for my vacation and have been looking everywhere in west mifflin area, south. I also have been taking my dogs to homes to watch them while away, I am newly divorced and my dogs have always gone everywhere with us, but this year as I have them on my own would be too much for one person. I found Alyssa and had no reviews but was in West Mifflin area and does house sitting. This would be a score, but with no reviews very hesitant. Both my dogs have had TPLO surgery and my oldest has a slight neck issue. Our first encounter was a video call. We talked quite some time and I automatically felt at ease. Alyssa is personable, and seems very genuine. We set up a drop in as I left to meet a friend. When Alyssa came to my home, my dogs loved her. Parker even did his under leg walk on her. I felt at ease with my dogs being watch, but also felt my home was in good hands as well. We are working with Alyssa for more visits in the next month until I leave for vacation to become acclimated. My dogs are my kids and think they are human. They have been thru alot with me and I am very particular of who watches my dogs so this is a huge win for us.”
“Tony did a wonderful job dropping in on my cat. Tony spent a lot of time getting to know her and from his updates I could tell she was very comfortable when he was visiting. Great check-ins, fun pictures, and I felt very assured my cat was being well cared for by Tony.”
About: I've grown up around cats and have sat for multiple families. I love cats of all ages and look forward to getting to know each and every one. I enjoy plants as well and am happy to care for plants while you are away. I currently work full time during weekdays and would unavailable during typical business hours. I would happy to drop by and spend time with your pet first thing after I leave work and on weekends. I always meet you and your pet before committing to sitting for you to ensure we are a good match and your pet feels comfortable with me. I meet the pet where they are in the environment that is most comfortable for them. I ask questions in advance to ensure I am prepared to meet your pets needs while you are away.
