“Our dog Auggie loves his visits with Olivia! She is so sweet and attentive with him, and she puts our minds at ease that knowing he is getting some TLC while we are busy. Definitely recommend booking with her!”

About: Hi! I would love any experience and I love all animals. I also have a very flexible schedule! I would love to help anyone I can! I can help out most days of the week. Mostly mornings or afternoons, but working during the day on the weekends works perfectly for me! I love all animals and treat any I meet like my own! I would not mind having to respectfully visit client’s homes if that is needed!
“Gary has been friendly and easy-going. Will definitely book again. I appreciate the attention to detail he gives each of the dogs and their walking/feeding habits. Thanks very much!”

“Chelsea has been a wonderful and reliable walker for my dog, Hoagie, for several months. She does a great job of keeping me informed on how things are going on the walks and always take some nice pictures. She even brought a toy or two as a Christmas gift. I highly recommend Chelsea and so does Hoagie.”

About: I have four years of hands on experience as a kennel technician, caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I specialize in maintaining clean, safe environments, providing enrichment, and offering plenty of love and attention. I’m confident handling puppies, senior pets, and administering basic medications, ensuring every pet feels comfortable and cared for while their family is away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine as I currently work as a Lead Kennel Technician. I dedicate mornings and evenings to feeding, walking, and engaging with pets, and I am available for pet sitting and drop-in visits during my off days /hours. I enjoy spending quality time with animals every day. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, welcoming environment and follow any specific instructions provided by pet parents. In a client’s home, I ensure pets remain in familiar surroundings and maintain their routines. If pets are in my care, I provide secure spaces, enrichment activities, and close supervision to make sure they are happy and safe.
“Dear Erin, Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of Knox!!! We really appreciated your careful attention to Knox’s needs as well as all of your updates/pics, including if you were in traffic/running late. We look forward to using you in the future!!! Thanks, Erica & David”

“We hired Justin to walk our dog Cooper for a few consecutive days while we were away. He was great throughout, coming to meet Cooper before their first walk and providing great feedback and details for each walk. I would definitely suggest him!”


“Had a last minute same day request for our 6 month old puppy Zari! Rebecca responded immediately and was able to accommodate the drop in/walk visit! Communication was excellent. We will be utilizing her again in the future.”

About: I recently relocated from Johnstown to McKeesport and am looking forward to meeting all the new pups in the area! I have been dog sitting for the past few years now and absolutely love it! My family has always had dogs since I can remember. I got my first dog, Ruby, named after the children’s show Max and Ruby, when I was 4 years old. I have loved caring for dogs ever since. Ruby is even still kicking at 18 years old! I now have a second dog, a 2 year old Husky who loves to play. I’ve trained many dogs, older and puppies since I can remember. I also have a lot of experience with elderly dogs, Ruby being a prime example. We go on walks often and I have basic dog training experience. I work part-time fully from home. I make my own schedule for work so I am completely flexible. The only time I ever leave the house is to take my dogs somewhere, dog park, hiking trail, etc. I am available every day and do same day bookings so feel free to reach out whenever you need! My dogs are very friendly and love other dogs. We also have 2 cats that play with our dogs as well. I have a fully fenced in yard to give your fur baby plenty of room to run around freely and play.
“I highly recommend Kelly for dog walking. She is incredibly reliable, always arriving right on time. I really appreciated her consistent communication, which kept me at ease while I was away.”

About: I absolutely love spending time with furry friends! I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and even some shy rescues. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, playing fetch at the park, and giving all the belly rubs they deserve. I’m responsible, punctual, and make sure each pet gets personalized attention and affection while you’re away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible class schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets throughout the week. I usually have mornings and evenings free, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Taking care of animals is a great way for me to relax and recharge between classes—it honestly makes my day better! I make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live just a short walk away from a beautiful dog park where pets can get plenty of safe, supervised outdoor time. I always keep dogs on a leash during walks and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. At home, I have two super friendly resident pets who love meeting new friends and are great at helping other pets feel relaxed and welcome. I keep my space clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with lots of cozy spots for rest and play. Your furry friend will be treated just like family here! 🐶💛
About: I have been a dog owner for over 11 years. Before that I helped take care of my families dog when I was younger as well with feeding and grooming. Currently I have helped watch dogs at my home for up to a month at a time or going to a dog owners home to walk their dog, take potty breaks and feed/give water to the dogs. I love all dogs no matter the breed or age. I have puppy and elderly dog experience. I specialize in care for elderly dogs as well. I work from home and have a very flexible job so having an extra doggie at home or going to someone’s house is not a big issue for me. I have a gated back yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pup company if you would like them to be watched at my home. I have crate trained three dogs and have no problem crating your dog as needed at my home or at your home over night or in between home visits.

About: Hi! I’m Dani — I have several years of experience caring for pets and love working with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’ve helped with dog walking, pet sitting, feeding routines, and giving lots of attention and playtime. I’m especially reliable, communicative, and patient, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I’m available for drop-ins and walks and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your pet comfortable and safe. I also have a flexible summer schedule, so I can accommodate last-minute needs and consistent routines. I’d love to meet your pet! I have three dogs of my own, including one with special needs, so I’m confident working with puppies to senior dogs. I have experience giving medication. I’m presently in school and only taking one class over the summer. I ensure that I keep my availability updated for potential clients. In the summer of 2026, I have no availability on Thursdays. I’m happy to do a meet and greet prior to developing our walking relationship. I’m comfortable providing medication and happy to follow any directions for pet care that are necessary.
About: I just like being around puppies. Especially the smaller ones. I don't have any special skills and definitely not a professional. But I'm a responsible person and so you can trust me with your puppy. No cats though. I work one one week and one week off. On my off weeks I don't really do anything (yet). Filling the void. Free throughout the day during off weeks and not a single second during work week. I can walk your puppy, feed your puppy, ensure that it has company, play around with it, watch for signs of the puppy needing additional care.

About: Hello! My name is Laura and I live in Trafford, PA with my fiancé, Nathan, and our 10 month old golden retriever puppy, Meadow :). I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets — not just dogs and cats, but also hamsters, chinchillas, guinea pigs and have even fostered a groundhog. I’ve grown up with pets all my life and couldn’t imagine a life without a furry family member. I’m comfortable with any and all pets including puppies who need structure, potty breaks, and tons of attention, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, extra gentleness, and close attention to their routines. I always keep owners updated so they feel connected and reassured:) I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and calm, even with shy, anxious, or energetic pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels safe and loved! I am a registered dental hygienist and work locally in Monroeville, PA. I work Monday–Thursday from 7am–4pm, but am available for evening walks and drop-ins. I’m fully available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for anything you need, including weekend boarding or day-care! I also have an entire week off around Christmas time, so I’ll be home and fully available for holiday bookings, extended stays, or extra visits during that time :). Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so I build my free time around making sure your pets get the attention, love, and routine they need. We live on a 2 acre wooded lot and I have a fully fenced-in large backyard for secure outdoor time. My two-story home offers lots of space for relaxing, playing, or finding a quiet spot. I’m experienced with crate training and can follow any crate or feeding routines your pet is used to. I have my own 10 month old golden retriever puppy who is well trained, potty trained, and crate trained. She is extremely friendly and will be a great playtime companion!:)
About: Hi! Some things you might like to know about me: I’m a wife, I love animals (obviously) the outdoors, gardening, reading, history and I’m a nurse who graduated from Saint Vincent college - I could be a great fit for you and your pet! I’ve had many growing up: dogs, cats, goats, chickens and bunnies. I’m very comfortable with caring for animals and have experience with all different kinds from my own pets, friends, and animal shelter volunteering. I’m also open to watch and care for any other types of pets that might not fit the category of cat or dog! Message me so we can discuss! As a nurse, I only work 3 days per week! Typically one time or “on occasion” jobs work best, and attending 2x daily might not be possible if it’s on a day that i work and my 3 days that I work vary from week to week. However, please reach out anyways to see if this could be a perfect fit! I’d love to see what i could do. I’m a very responsible and organized person, so I could safely play with your dog(s) or cat(s) in your home or around the neighborhood. Being a nurse has made me much more aware and attentive of needs such as fresh water availability, food, safety and happiness for both people and animals!
“Olivia R. Is wonderful. You can tell she loves dogs. Olivia is very good with Crosby. If something comes up and you need to make a change to the scheduled walk she will accommodate you if possible. I highly recommend Olivia R.”

About: I have experience in puppy obedience training and leash training, oral medication administration, experience handling dogs of all ages and sizes, especially with caring for stubborn dogs. Also I am very familiar with taking care of pups with anxiety or different fears. I am a full time student at Boston University, but have long breaks throughout my day where I could care for nearby pets in need of attention or walks, meaning lunchtime check ins or walks work particularly well with my schedule. I am happy to follow any preferences you have for pet care, including crating your dog (I have extensive experience crate training an unruly giant schnauzer puppy), leash preferences, and feeding schedules. I typically bring water bowls and extra water for my dogs on walks to keep them feeling their best and treats to keep them engaged (treat type depending on what your dog typically eats).

About: I have worked in homes with dogs all throughout my life. I spent a year as a caregiver with a family that were actively training dogs from sizes 3 pounds to 125 pounds. I rescued my German Shepherd when he was 6 months old and dedicated the time to train him. He is amazing with other dogs and was a big help in training a previous roommate's dog. Your pet will be well taken care of, entertained and exercised in the house and fenced in yard. I will follow any training regimes you have set for your pet. I have 2 roommates that also adore pets, so there will always be someone around to love up on them! I work part time away from the house and my roommates work different schedules, so there is always someone home to feed, water, exercise and give potty breaks. I can crate if needed. Or separate if that is ever a problem. The fenced in back yard gives peace of mind for security and exercise.
