She takes such good care of them and keeps me posted with pictures and information on what they are up to. I’m very happy and know they are in good hands with Courtney. I can go away and not worry cause I know she is there with them. Thank you Courtney!”

She was quick to respond and and very flexible with pick-up days/times, which I really appreciated. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and calm from all the playtime they got in Samantha's large, shady backyard. Will definitely book again with Samantha in the future!”

“I am writing this review with immense pleasure and satisfaction to express my deepest appreciation for the exceptional dog boarding services provided by the incredibly professional couple. From the moment I first reached out to them about boarding my two dogs, their approach was nothing short of exemplary. They displayed not only a profound understanding of dogs and their needs but also a deep-rooted love for all animals. Their reassuring demeanor immediately put me at ease, and I was confident that my pets were in capable and caring hands. The couple's home was a perfect blend of comfort, safety, and stimulation for my dogs. They had ample space for play and rest, and their cleanliness standards were top-notch. The environment was not only pet-friendly but also infused with a warmth that only a true animal-loving home can emanate. Debbie and Adam went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. They meticulously followed the dietary and exercise routine I provided, ensuring that my pets' health and well-being were never compromised. They also kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which was an added comfort.”

She kept me updated constantly and sent pics during the course of my trip to keep me updated. She took him for walks, played with him and made a comfortable environment for him. I will definitely use raeann again.”

“This was our first time leaving our 9 month old Golden Retriever, and we were all anxious. Sklyer was very kind and understanding about our nervousness, and she was a great communicator. We received pictures and updates daily, and Copper was well taken care of and seemed to have a great time. We were able to enjoy our Christmas trip to see family knowing he was in good hands. I would recommend Sklyer, and certainly have Copper stay with her again.”

“We felt so good with Caroline checking in on our cat during an extended trip away. She made sure to locate her every time (even if she was hiding under the bed!) and send us a photo. Our shy kitty even felt comfortable coming out and engaging with her after a few visits. Thank you Caroline for providing excellent care- we’ll be sure to book again!”

“Jacqueline was amazing! She was very responsive from the first moment we reached out to her about booking, and we even had a meet and greet so our pup could get familiar with her in advance. Our pup has a lot of energy, and she always got creative with ways to give him mental stimulation and exercise — even if it was storming and he couldn’t go outside. She even offered to stay a little longer during visits to keep him company and make sure he was okay when he started having some tummy issues. I appreciate all the updates and photos she sent after each visit, and he always looked happy in every photo. I would highly recommend Jacqueline and would definitely book her again!”

“We were so happy with Rachel’s service. I liked that I was notified every day when she arrived and left. We also got daily pictures and I was even surprised to see pictures of some of our more shy cats. We would definitely book with Rachel again.”

The updates and pictures gave me peace of mind that he was comfortable and taken care of. I will definitely be asking Cailynn to help me again!”

“Elizabeth watched my cat, Estelle for me and I knew she was in great hands. She updated me on her which I really appreciated, Estelle told me how great Elizabeth was to her. she made sure to not only feed her and give her water but love on her. Estelle threw up (she does that) and Elizabeth did not hesitate to take care of the mess she made. My sweet girl was a happy girl!! Thank you, Elizabeth!!! We appreciate you so so much.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Maria! She was as calm and reassuring with us as she was with Beau. We received photos through the day, and a special package of treats was tucked into his bag when we unpacked at home. So happy to know we have a safe and serene place for Beau when we need to travel.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have loved animals my entire life. I have been a pet sitter for many friends and neighbors over the years and had my own canine companion for 10 years. She passed away in November of 2023. Animals deserve to be loved and treated like family. I promise that your dogs will be treated very well and that they will truly enjoy their “vacation” at my home. It’s difficult to leave your “loved ones” in the care of others and I know that feeling. Rest assured that they will be cared for and spoiled to the best of my ability! I am a behavioral therapist who works with children and families. I have a hybrid job which means that I work from home doing Telehealth services and I also see clients in person at times. I am home for most of the day and this worked perfectly when I cared for my late dog, Arwen. I do not have any pets currently. I have an elevated deck that is only accessible from the house. It is surrounded and my dog loved to spend time out there basking in the sun. I have a yard but it is not fenced in. My neighborhood is quiet and very dog friendly.
“Tia was a great puppy sitter for our Monty! She updated us throughout the day with videos. Monty was playful and happy. She took great care of our fur baby! Would definitely recommend her.”

“Sara is a great sitter. My dog was excited to see her and had a great day playing at her house. Her backyard is fenced in which gave me a sense of security leaving my baby. Will definitely use her services again.”

I'll make sure they are settled in when we return home and have fresh water. Your instructions will be followed and I'll always leave you a note and keep in touch as directed.
“Laura and her son Jesse were the best with my puppy. She sent me pictures throughout the day to keep me updated and I could tell that they both gave him lots of love and attention. I felt very much at ease leaving my puppy with them while I worked. 1000 percent recommend!”

“We had a great experience with Gretchen! We were in town for a wedding and looking for someone to come to our rental house and sit with our dog there. Even though this is not a standard dog-sitting situation, she was willing to accommodate us. Our pup was calm and content when we returned and everything worked out great.”

About: I’ve taken care of small animals since I was a kid. I was always the student who volunteered to take the class pet home for extended breaks from school. Some of the animals I cared for included leopard geckos, hamsters, and Guinea pigs! I have loved animals ever since 😊 Besides class pets, I grew up babysitting my Aunt’s dog, Oscar, whenever she went on vacation or needed some extra help. I got my first dog when I was 12 and he’s still living with us today. I am offering all services for small to medium sized dogs. I am relatively free for dog care through Rover as I work a part time job in my spare time. I also used to have a job at a doggy daycare so I have plenty of experience with dog behavior :) I can assure you that daily walks and cuddles with your pup fit into my schedule <3 We have one small dog named Gizmo who is a 9 year old Shih-tzu mix. He is super friendly as he loves both people and dogs! We do not have a fenced yard but we regularly take trips to the local dog park. Additionally, we have a fenced deck where the dogs can get some fresh air. I know it can be intimidating to leave your pet with a stranger. As such, I try to make everyone feel welcome. I assure you that I am dedicated to your pet’s safety and well-being and promise to care for your pet as if they were my own. They will become a part of the furry family for the duration of their stay ♥️
“Christy was great! She was able to look after our lab mix Darcy while we went to the Mattress Factory. She was easy to coordinate with and did a great job of managing the dogs she was watching along with Darcy. Christy relieved all the stress of leaving our dog in a strange place in a new city. Highly recommend!”

“Joshua was fantastic. While I wasn't able to take advantage of it (since I was running off to work), he offered me a chance to tour his house to see where the pups would be staying. Either way, my dogs obviously had a great time and I have already booked two more days for my pups to stay with him.”

About: For 10+ years, I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and neighbors. Growing up with rescue pets, I have experience caring for anxious and distracted dogs. I also have experience caring for puppies and senior dogs with disabilities. I have a love for all animals, and can ensure great care, attention, and love will be given to your pet!! I’m currently working remote 4 days a week, with Monday as my typical day in office, although the day is subject to change per week. When working from home or on the weekends, I can let the dog out frequently, walk the dog everyday, play multiple times outside, pet and brush when inside, and give lots of attention to. I’m available to pet sit on my day in office as well, but the dog would not be let out between the hours of 7am-4:30 pm. When I pet sit, the dog is typically within my sight at all times. When at the house, the dog will be taken out hourly and played with frequently throughout the day. The water bowl will be refilled at least twice a day when food is given, or more if needed. Little objects or any choking hazards will be out reach for the dog, as well as food and other dangers. Walks will be given daily if the weather permits, as well as constant pets. Your dog will receive a lot of love with me!!
About: I got my first dog at 10 years old and have loved them ever since. I love to help get them outside and keep them company. I work remotely and have flexibility to pop in for visits and walks during the days and evening. We also recently lost 1 of our 2 dogs and would love to find more dog friends in the area. We have one senior mutt who spends the day with me and my toddler at home. He is a rescue who can be timid and appreciates his space at times. We love to take him for long walks and make sure he is comfortable with his people and surroundings.
“So far I’ve been pleased with Kristie. My pup took a liking to her immediately. Kristie is tough. Even if it’s cold or nasty weather, she will push through and make sure the dog gets his exercise. I hope she can become my regular dog walker for many more years”

“Dan was extremely prompt and reliable and our pup Bailey was also so excited to see him in the mornings! I appreciated the Dan worked on some simple commands with Bailey. Would definitely recommend Dan for dog walking!”

About: Hi! I’m Karsyn, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been a dedicated dog mom to my Mini Australian Shepherd for the past 5 years, and before him I grew up with dogs my entire childhood. I truly treat my pets like my children, and I’ll care for yours with that same level of love, patience, and attention! When my dog was a puppy, I enrolled him in training classes, which taught me so much about dog behavior, body language, and positive interactions. That experience gave me a better understanding of how dogs communicate and how to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. One of my absolute favorite parts of pet sitting is sending photos of your pets to you! I basically turn into the pet paparazzi and love snapping pictures throughout our time together. If you want one update, I can do that. If you want one million pictures, I can absolutely do that too;) I know how hard it is to be away from your furry family member, so I love sending lots of updates to give you peace of mind, and hopefully a few photos worthy for your camera roll! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and have no breed restrictions. If your pup is a strong puller, that’s no problem-I’m confident handling energetic dogs on walks as well! I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is always to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and excited to book again! I work full-time Monday-Thursday and have full availability for pet care Friday-Sunday. Occasionally I can come evening during the week after work when need be I don’t offer boarding in my home, but I’d love to care for your pet in the comfort of theirs! My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Expect lots of love, playtime, and PLENTY of photo updates. I have a slight obsession with taking pictures of animals so If you want one picture, I can do that. If you want one million… I can definitely do that too! 📸🐾
“Lindsey was wonderful! I appreciate her taking the time to walk with Ella. Ella was comfortable and happy. This is great practice for her to learn to walk with other people.”

“Jill is very reliable, caring, and attentive. My dog was happy, well cared for, and I appreciated the updates while I was away. We would definitely use her services again!!”

About: I went to a vet tech program in high school which made me familiar with disabilities and health issues in pets. I have trained both my medium/large dogs and even one of my cats. I am comfortable with animals of any size or shape. I have also raised three happy independent kittens from when they were only just about a month old. I am currently working on getting a job as an EMT and applying to colleges, Currently I am available weekdays after 3 pm and weekends after 12:00 pm(this is flexible and I would be willing to stretch earlier in the day if needed but it is a general guideline). My availability once I get a job at an ambulance company may change but it should not be anything too significant. I can come over for up to a few hours a day to spend time with/ feed any animals in the household, I unfortunately can not stay overnight due to my own cat at home but would be willing to come over earlier in the morning and stay all day if necessary. If walking a dog we will discuss and plan a route, or discuss how long the walks should be for me to walk beforehand.
About: I have been taking care of and training my own dogs for the last 20 years. With my love of dogs and desire to be active I am excited to get to know some new furry friends and give them some extra love & attention and get outside! I like to stay active and have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available at different times throughout the week and possibly weekends. My goal is to safely greet and get to know your pet and get them outside for a nice long walk or short leisurely stroll depending on their needs.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds, including cats, dogs, turtles, goats, chickens, and ducks. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. I’m definitely a cat person at heart, but I absolutely love dogs too! My boyfriend is allergic, so having a dog of our own isn’t really an option. Pet sitting gives me the perfect excuse to get my dog fix and give them all the attention, walks, playtime, and love I’d give one of my own. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker at the Humane Society, where I gained experience walking and handling dogs with a variety of sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Recently, I rescued two separate litters of kittens and helped care for them, including bottle-feeding and providing the extra attention young kittens need. I also have more than 10 years of experience house-sitting and caring for pets for numerous families. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, and I’d love the opportunity to give your pets that same care and affection! I work from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays. Depending on the distance from my work, I may be able to stop in during my lunch break, and I’m available after work and throughout the evening. My weekends are completely open, giving me plenty of flexibility to spend time with your pets and work around their normal routine. My goal is to make your absence feel like as little has changed as possible for your pet. I’ll follow their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and care routines while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show my own.
“I highly recommend Candace she was a lifesaver during a very busy time for me. She went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was taken care of he even told me that Candace rocks.. meaning he was a very happy puppy!!”

“Carly was absolutely fantastic caring for our dog, Kongo, while we were away on vacation. She was consistently timely, punctual, responsible, and extremely responsive throughout the entire process. Most importantly, Kongo absolutely loved her, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while traveling. What truly stood out was Carly’s professionalism and calm demeanor when she unexpectedly had to deal with a malfunctioning smoke alarm at our home during our trip. She handled the situation confidently and without hesitation, acting as though it was no inconvenience at all — despite it being something far beyond what should normally be expected of a dog walker. Knowing Carly was caring for Kongo made our vacation far more relaxing and enjoyable. We are incredibly grateful for her reliability, kindness, and dedication. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and exceptional pet care. Five stars all the way!”

“Maryann has been an absolute blessing! To find someone that appreciates all the sweet things about our Pup and treats him with such kindness and care means we have someone to help provide our doggo with dog walking when we really need it.

“Top tier sitter. Exceeds expectations! Very watchful and kept me updated when my dog was having a potential colitis flare up. Willing to go pick up medication if needed. I always love the attention he gets from their children.”

“I’m so glad to have found Courtney. She has been absolutely wonderful with my 2 dogs and they are always happy to see her. She takes such good care of them and keeps me posted with pictures and information on what they are up to. I’m very happy and know they are in good hands with Courtney. I can go away and not worry cause I know she is there with them. Thank you Courtney!”


“Victoria was amazing with our two dogs. She was extremely accommodating, kept us very informed, and treated our dogs as her own. Would definitely recommend her to others, and I hope Piper and Chester can sleep over again in the future! Thank you!”

“Raeann was great with my dog! My dog is very anxious so I was hesitant about leaving him. We set up a meet and great prior to my trip and all my hesitations were gone. She kept me updated constantly and sent pics during the course of my trip to keep me updated. She took him for walks, played with him and made a comfortable environment for him. I will definitely use raeann again.”

“This was our first time leaving our 9 month old Golden Retriever, and we were all anxious. Sklyer was very kind and understanding about our nervousness, and she was a great communicator. We received pictures and updates daily, and Copper was well taken care of and seemed to have a great time. We were able to enjoy our Christmas trip to see family knowing he was in good hands. I would recommend Sklyer, and certainly have Copper stay with her again.”

“This was the first time Lyla stayed with Beth and her family. I'm very pleased with the level of care and communication. Beth took great care of Lyla and Lyla really seemed to enjoy herself. Great sitter, highly recommend!”

“Maggie had a delightful time with Emily and Chase! They treated her like one of the family! She loved the shaded fenced-in yard and having two new dog friends to play with! Maggie received her medication that was needed while she was there, and Emily/Chase made sure that she got her calming chews when there were thunderstorms. We will definitely book with them again!”

“Sara was perfect. I booked her last minute for the first time and she did an amazing job caring for my dogs, one of which is a senior dog that needs special care. I was very anxious to leave her but Sara was very reassuring and communicated very well. She didn’t miss a beat giving my dog her medications and sent plenty of updates. When I picked my dogs up, I could just tell they were comfortable and had a great stay. Absolutely plan to use Sara again.”

“I have tried another local, highly recommended boarding place. My dogs would come home traumatized. I went on a search for a new place that would show patience and love towards my dogs, as my dogs do not trust people quickly. Christina and Daniel meet that requirement. From the get-go, they showed the extra patience and love towards my dogs. Christina & Daniel were very good at sending updates and pictures of the dogs. I could see from the photos that my dogs were happy. They were very good at responding to my questions, which gave me peace of mind to enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Christina & Daniel. This is my new favorite boarding place for my dogs.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Kyle was amazing. Having had our rescue dog for just 3 months, I wasn’t sure how the overnight boarding would go. He gave our Bugsy all the attention he needed to feel secure. He even sent pictures capturing Bugsy’s sleepover fun! I would definitely recommend him.”

“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful, caring and friendly sitters. I could not have asked for a better situation for my dog. Max. It was a wonderful experience for Max and I will definitely schedule with her again.”

“Droopy was well-loved and well taken care of by Sebastian. I felt confident leaving him in Sebastian's care, and I will definitely rebook next time I return to Pittsburgh with my dog!”


About: I’ve owned dogs for 30 years, including an English Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I have firsthand experience caring for medically complex, high-maintenance dogs and understand the patience, attention, and consistency they need. After recently losing my Frenchie, I miss being around dogs, but I am not ready to own another one yet. I’d give your dog dependable, attentive care while enjoying their company. I’m retired, so my schedule is flexible. I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, companionship, and care they need. Pet care will easily fit into my daily and weekly routine. I’m also available during weekdays, when many pet owners are at work. In my home, dogs are family and welcome throughout the house. We have a securely fenced yard and a gated porch for safe outdoor time. I can crate your dog if that is part of their normal routine, or they are welcome to sleep in a bed if preferred.
