“I brought my two fur babies to Pittsburgh, PA to be with me while I attended my class reunion. I found Ms. Carol on Rover. Immediately when I saw her face I knew she was the one I could trust my babies with. Ms. Carol, I’m so pleased to have met you. My babies were safe, looked after as if they were hers, attended to when needed, but most importantly, welcomed into her home by her fur babies.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for quite some time. Whether it is letting pets out or having them stay with me or staying at the pets home. I have been around dogs my whole life. I am very active, so I can give your pet a lot of exercise on our walks. I have a fenced in yard with dogs behind me who are very friendly. I have an English mastiff weighing 185 lbs, so I feel I can handle just about any dog. I recently separated from my company for which I’ve worked for, for the last 22 yrs instead of finding another office job, I wanted to try to do something that I love to do. I love to exercise and love dogs, so this seems like a perfect match. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile I recently lost my job after being at the company for 22 years. As of now, I don’t have any other commitments that would keep me from performing pet care duties. I am hoping to make this venture a full time gig provided enough people place their trust in me. If you wanted to board your pet with me, I have a split level ranch house with a nice sized yard. There are dogs behind me that love to play with each other and dogs in my yard. There is an old school near me , two large parks and a dog park with hiking trails. Although I would need to drive to those places, but as long is your comfortable with me driving your pet, your pet would have many opportunities to get a lot of exercise. Dogs are permitted, actually encouraged to get on the couches and bed. I have a 17 year old daughter that is with me every other weekend and Wednesdays. However she loves dogs as much as I do, and is great with dogs. In your home, my attitude is im a guest in your home and will treat your home with respect and care. I will walk your dog or play with him/her in your yard if that is preferred. Upon leaving? I will make sure your home will be left as I found it.

“Joe is so wonderful! Our puppy had a GREAT day with him and Zip. Joe was willing and able to take our Rosie for the day with only a few days’ notice, which was a huge help to us (we were in a bind!). He was very communicative, took great care of our dog, and sent us some really cute photos and updates. He made sure Rosie had a wonderful day despite all the gray and rainy weather. I’m so grateful! We’ll definitely be back!”

“Sarah was awesome with our two dogs! She was so easy to talk to, clearly cared about our dogs and was very accommodating. We needed a sitter on short notice and she was great about helping us out. Her dogs are sweet and playful and got along with our dogs so they all had a blast. She has a fenced in backyard that our dogs loved and had plenty of toys for all to play with. I highly recommend Sarah for your sitting needs!”

About: Hi, I’m Valerie — lifelong animal lover, proud pet mom, and your go-to sitter for stress-free, tail-wagging care! I’ve been caring for dogs of every size, breed, and personality since I was 10 years old. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and families have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s a playful puppy, an energetic walker, or a gentle senior needing extra attention, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and right at home. Animals bring me so much joy — and I always go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member receives the same love and attention they get from you. 🐶❤️ I also have extensive experience caring for pets with special needs. I’ve helped dogs recover comfortably post-surgery, maintained routines for a 14-year-old diabetic cat, and provided patient, gentle care for anxious or senior animals. When I worked as a Wag! walker eight years ago, I was quickly requested as a regular walker by repeat clients — a reflection of my dependability, calm energy, and genuine love for animals of all kinds. I currently run my own business, which gives me vast flexibility and availability to devote to your pets’ needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, a last-minute drop-in, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your schedule to ensure your furry friend is comfortable, cared for, and loved. I’m an avid hiker and live right next to Frick Park’s 9-Mile Trail, where I love taking dogs for long walks, fresh air, and a healthy dose of adventure (with your approval, of course!). For pups who prefer a quieter pace, I provide gentle strolls and cozy downtime at home. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly — I can easily crate your pup if needed and always follow care instructions closely. Comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I make sure every pet feels relaxed, happy, and right at home — whether they’re here for a walk, a weekend, or a longer stay. Your pets deserve someone who sees them the way you do — as family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry companion and give them the care, attention, and affection they deserve. Let’s set up a meet and greet — I can’t wait to welcome them into my world of tail wags, fresh air, and happy hearts. 🐾❤️ I run my own business, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding throughout the week — including weekends and most evenings. Whether you need consistent care, last-minute help, or an extended stay, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule to make sure your pet always feels cared for and loved. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment for every pet in my care. My home has plenty of space for your dog to relax or stretch their legs before and after walks. I live right next to Frick Park’s 9-Mile Trail, which is perfect for safe, scenic walks and outdoor adventures (always with your approval and comfort level in mind). I follow every care instruction closely — from feeding and medications to exercise routines — and I’m experienced in caring for pets with special needs, including post-surgery care and senior or diabetic animals. I prioritize safety and comfort above all else, ensuring every pet in my care feels secure, happy, and right at home.

“Savannah was great with our 4 month old puppy. Quick and effective communication and great updates with pics throughout the day. We felt very comfortable with our dog in her care. He had a blast playing with her dog and kid. Will use again!”

About: I have been around dogs most of my life and have been dog sitting for a few years now! I love taking them on walks and caring for their needs!! I work from home and will be them for most of the day! I don't leave for more than 2 hours at a time. They are more than welcome to stay as long as needed and am very flexible with drop off and pick up times! I have a large fenced in backyard yard and toys to play with! I have a senior Chiweenie who gets along with almost every dog she meets!! I work from home M-F 8-4:30 and leave for no more than 3 hours at a time. I have 2 dogs of my own and we will welcome yours with open arms. I have a large fenced in backyard and 2 dogs of my own that will keep your fur baby company. I have an extra crate, toys, and lots of treats to share (only if you allow).

“Thank you for the great care you gave Sydney on his full day of daycare. He was so exhausted 🥱 and fell asleep and slept all night.”

About: Animals have been a passion of mine my entire life! I have owned and loved cats and dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 10. I would love to show that same love to your babies, too! I am available to do in-house stays, walking, play dates, and much more! I work full-time, but do have work from home days that make it easy for me to care for your furry friend. My weekends are usually filled with playing with my pup, but I would love to make time for your pets to join us for walks or play dates! I have a fenced in yard and an open floor plan home that allows for plenty of room to play, rain or shine. I live on a quiet street that makes walking your pet a breeze. All doors remain shut in my home to ensure no nosy pups can get in to things that they should not. I am big on taking pictures and can keep you updated on the status of your pet to ensure you feel comfortable with leaving your pet in my care!

About: I'm from PR, and I've been a dog rescuer since 2011. I have tons of experience caring for animals and giving them the love and treatment that they deserve. I love what I do. I retire and moved to Pittsburgh on February, 2023. It makes me a perfect match for your doggy. I will treat them as if they were mine. NO cages. I have a fenced runner connected to the pets' room that allows them to safely go in and out whenever they want. You can bring their bed or any special toys. I foster rescued dogs from PR that came to Pittsburgh looking for a second chance of life, and the money earn through Rover is used to cover their health and traveling expenses. I work from home, and my office is in the room where they will spend their stay, so they will be with me most of the day, and they will be able to play with my own dogs under supervision. If they are potty trained and well behaved, they will have permission to access all the house. To be able to satisfy you pup's needs, I will ask you to write down your special instructions and promise I will follow them as written. You will receive a lot of daily pictures of your furry friends.

“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”

“Megan was great--very responsive and communicative, she has a nice space for dogs, and took Rex for walks to help keep him happy. Most important, he has had relaxed, happy stays with her.”

About: Although this account is under my name, this is a team effort with my wife. We’re a young, energetic couple who have all the time and patience your pup deserves. A fully fenced yard out back provides a great place for playtime, and there’s always a spot on the couch to hang out with us. We now offer pick-up and drop-off! I work a 9-to-5 schedule from home and I tend to spend a lot of my free time there as well. My wife is also home most of the day, so we have plenty of time throughout the week to give your dog the attention they need! My fully fenced yard, quiet house and neighborhood are perfect for dogs who are looking to relax on their vacation, but I have plenty of energy to walk and play with them too. Your dog will be hosted by our Bernedoodle, Finn, who loves making new friends.

“Regina was amazing. Super conscientious and communicative. I was amazed at how happy he was when I picked him up he seemed sad to go. When I’m in Pittsburgh area she is my go to.”
