“Madyson was excellent with my dog Copper! His stay with her and Sparky involved lots of play time, cuddles, and great communication with us! Madyson is very attentive with any needs Copper has. I would highly recommend her!”
“I think Lucy enjoyed her stay much more than others in the past. She got to sleep in a real bed w stuffed animals, just like she does at home. Thank you Sarah for the pics ( just got another today as Canada delayed some of my texts). I would recommend Sarah to anyone!”
“Henry had the best time with Michelle and her family! From start to finish, communication was excellent, and the daily photos gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We can’t recommend Michelle and her wonderful family enough!”
“Incredible sitters, had tons of room to let my 6 month old puppy run around and get all the exercise she needed. She was in such a good mood when I came by to pick her up and she looked so happy in all of the pictures they sent! I would highly recommend this location to everyone, was such an amazing experience for first time boarding!”
“Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our one dog right before their stay. Debbie and Adam gave Cooper extra love the whole week since he was feeling sad and a little lonely. He always loves lounging with his friend Sadie too :)”
“Pablo had a great time with Jessica, Theo and the kids! They kept me up to date on how he was doing and he came back tired, so I know he had a good vacation! :) Pablo is looking forward to seeing them again!”
“Joni was great with our dog. She gave us updates and sent us a picture while we were gone. She is very responsive if you have any questions and pick and drop off was a breeze. I highly recommend and will be bringing my dog back to Joni for our next trip.”
“Michelle was a great person for dodger. She took great care of him, he came home happy, and she frequently updated me with photos and texts about him. I will definitely use her again.”
“Nelia took excellent care of Daffy while our family was away! She sent us 2 to 3 updates each day, along with pictures of our dog, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. The photos showed that Daffy wasn't simply being boarded, but was truly being included in the family's daily activities. We could not be happier with the care and service Nelia provided. If you're in the Pittsburgh area and need a reliable, caring dog sitter, we highly recommend her. We will absolutely use her services again in the future. Thank you, Nelia, for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby!”
“Melanie and Eric were so loving and caring with our anxious and reactive boy Walter! It was Walter’s first time away and I knew he was in good hands. They sent updates and were very responsive to messages. Couldn’t be happier!”
“Raeann is truly the best. She cares for Bronn as if he were her own. She always sends lots of updates and pictures (which as anxious dog mom I appreciate immensely). I could not recommend her enough and Bronn is looking forward his next visit!”
“Melissa did a wonderful job caring for our dog Sadie! She made us feel very comfortable that she was in good hands! Every day she sent us multiple updates & pictures of her. She treated her like one of her own! Highly recommend Melissa!”
“Our dog Woody had a great stay with Victoria. It was our first time leaving him and we loved seeing the videos of him that she sent twice a day. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive to any questions. He came home happy and tired from playing with all of his friends.”
“Wonderful experience with Jeremy and his wife! We were so grateful to find them on short notice, and they took wonderful care of our pup. I think she was almost sad to leave she had so much fun! We will be calling them again 💗”
“We feel very fortunate to have found Gary and his wife who took care of our dog, Grace, for a month! They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”

“Chloe was great! Our girls were well taken care of while we were on vacation. She dealt with our cat’s anxiety and was able to feed them their medications, which was our main concern. We would definitely recommend and rebook!”
About: *Hello! My name is Jessica and I cannot wait to pet sit for you! I have roughly 15 years of experience with pet/house sitting. With me, you'll be able to enjoy vacation, spend time with family, or whatever it may be with reassurance and a sigh of relief knowing that your little furry family member is in good hands. *I started off many years ago cat sitting for 2 cats and one of them needed a lot of care including medication twice a day. Over the years, that led to dog sitting 2 dogs. Pretty soon, that family referred me to another family, they did the same, and next thing I know I had about 4 different families that I was sitting for. I recently took some time off, but I am ready to start again! *For my job, I start at midnight until usually 8:30am. At some point during the day, I do online college courses (I'm done with schooling at the end of this year), so that means I will be able to spend basically the entire day with your pet! *Not only will booking with me help you, but it also benefits me because I thoroughly enjoy being around animals. Where I live, I am not allowed pets so anytime I am able to help people and it so happens to involve an animal, I am happy! *For pricing, I'm willing to talk about it. I will work with you especially if you have any additional services that may need done like cleaning up your house, etc. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you consider me when choosing a pet sitter. I work full time but start at midnight until 8:30am. That gives me the ability to be able to be at your house all day with your pet(s)! That means they won't be lonely while you're gone! In your house, I will give your dog all the comfort that it needs because I'm sure not having their owner around will be an adjustment at first. I am able to take your pet on as many walks as needed, follow whatever food schedule that is required, and have as much cuddle time as they let me! I would care for your pet with the mindset that this is a little family member and treat it with the kindness and respect all animals deserve and I never bring anyone else over to the client's house.
About: I live on a farm and have had animals my whole life. I currently have two young dogs. I care for pets of other family members while they are away. I have been caring for animals for over 30 years. I am currently retired from my job in healthcare. I love going to my grandchildren’s sports events but have plenty of available time to provide lots of love and care your fur baby. Safety for your pet is my priority, I also want your pet to be happy and feel loved while you are away. I will provide play and exercise for your pet, just let me know what type of games they enjoy!
About: I’m currently a stay at home mom with open availability 7 days a week for drop ins and walks! All of my employees at my former full time job took advantage of the opportunity to bring their dog to work with them. I spent most days at work caring for my employees' fur babies in the office while they repair vehicles. It gives them the chance to spend time with their pups even when they're away from home 8+ hours per day. I have experience with breeds of all sizes, including massive breeds such as great danes. I often tell people "My life revolves around cars, trucks, & dogs." I’m currently a stay at home mom with open availability! I have plenty of free time to spend with your fur babies and give them the love & exercise that they deserve! I currently don’t offer any services in my own home due to my own dogs’ territorial personalities, but I look forward to being welcomed into my clients homes!
“Kimberly was great with our diabetic cat and giving him his injections while I was out of town. She was also quick with her replies and scheduling. I would reccomend her to any cat parent. Thank you Kimberly!”
About: While most of my experience is with dogs, I bring the same patience, gentleness, and respect to caring for cats, especially those who are shy, senior, or need time to build trust. I’m calm, observant, and always move at the pet’s pace to ensure they feel safe and seen.
About: I've own cats since I was 4 years old. I love every single cat I see and stop to pet them all (so long as they allow it). My own cats are both treated like kings. My older ginger boy also has asthma so he gets an inhaler twice a day.
“First time working with Jarett, he spent a lot more time than we expected him to just building trust and relationship with our dogs. He’s very prompt at communication and sending photos. Everything happened exactly how we asked him to.”
“Kathryn was great with our cats (who warmed up to her faster than their usual), communicated super well, and was fastidious about care and cleaning. Would love to work with her again!”
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life. While I’m currently in college, I’ve grown up caring for multiple cats at home in West Virginia, including my own fur baby, Emma Dot, and another cat named Jasmine in Bethel. I’m experienced in providing attentive, loving care and understand what it takes to keep your cat happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals, and pet sitting has given me the chance to spend time with so many wonderful pets. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other unique animals, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I enjoy going on walks, playing, giving plenty of attention, and sticking to each pet’s routine so they stay happy and relaxed. I will also keep you updated with messages and pictures, so you’ll always know how your companion is doing. I work a part time job. This means I’m available the majority of the time! I am available 7 days a week for at home pet sitting, walking, boarding, and drop ins. How convenient for us both! When it comes to walking our furry friends, I’m always extra cautious of keeping leashes on them. Of course i make sure they always have water and food available as it is important for their well being. I also make sure to keep anything chewable (that isn’t a doggie toy) away from them. For those who choose boarding I have a separate floor in my house all to myself, which is where your pets will also stay. I have a large yard and a fenced in yard as well. And we live in a more rural setting so we can take them for walks frequently!
“Our 13 and 14 y/o high-maintenance kitties were so delighted with Kristie's care. They took to her right away which is definitely not common. She communicated with us well and understood our action-packed kitty schedule. We felt at ease while we were away for a weekend trip with Kristie at the helm!”
About: Hello! I have worked at a boarding kennel for 5 years and have volunteered at the Humane society for 2 years as well. I am comfortable with everything your pet brings to the table! I am proficient in understanding a dogs behavior, your dog will be in trusted hands. I am currently working remote on Wednesdays and Fridays and would love some more dog time! I am available throughout the days on these days. I am also available on weekends! I will be sure your dog has the most fun on our walks! I know my way around many types of harnesses/leashes/muzzles. I can’t wait to get my steps in with your dog!
About: I have been a dog owner for 15years. Sadly she passed this year. I have been on Rover several years ago and I'm back in full force! I attend school to be a Licensed Massage Therapist and I'm looking for a job that is flexible and one where I can take care of dogs again. I miss my babygirl and I would love to extend my love for your baby! Hello! My current schedule is open for Wednesday thru Sunday each week. Please send me a message to see if I'm available! I look forward to extending my love and care to your babies! I can take care of your fur baby any way needed. I love to let them get ample amount of exercise if they are able or we can just snuggle up to a good movie.

About: I’ve always had a dog in my family, sometimes multiple. I’m okay with muddy paws and slobbery kisses. I love animals and will care for your fur babies like they’re my own. I’m home most of the time and can give your pet a lot of attention and care. My yard is fenced and am willing to throw a ball or play for good exercise. My yard is fenced and I have a friendly dog that will love to play with yours. If your pet is shy I am able to keep them separate as well. Able to crate if needed.
“Joni was amazing ❤️ My request for doggy daycare was last minute and she still took Bella in and treated her as her own. I will 100% use her again and refer her to all of my friends and family. Thank you Joni ?”
About: Hi! I’m Brittni! I’m fortunate to have the ability to work from home often, which means your pets get lots of company and attention throughout the day! I’m also a proud fur-mom with years of experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. Whether your crew includes a tiny Frenchie, a giant Great Dane, a cuddly cat, a curious ferret, or a feathered chatterbox, I’ve probably loved on one before! Size, breed, or the number of pets in your family doesn’t scare me—I believe the more paws, the merrier! Need someone who can give medications, keep up with special care routines, or convince your stubborn pup that going outside is actually a great idea? I’ve got you covered. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs and always take the time to learn exactly what makes each pet happy, healthy, and comfortable. I know leaving your pets behind can be stressful. After all, they’re family—not “just pets.” That’s why I care for every furry, feathered, or scaly friend as if they were my own. Whether they love long walks, endless games of fetch, snuggling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby while they nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and spoiled while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing crew. Let’s make your next trip worry-free—and maybe earn a few tail wags, happy purrs, and the occasional zoomies along the way! I have the ability to work from home during the week, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, care and companionship throughout the day. After work, and during weekends are usually very flexible for me. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I do have a long leash so your pet can enjoy safe outdoor time, in addition to regular walks if you’d like. In my home, in addition to my husband, I have two Frenchies, one chocolate lab, and a cat (who mainly keeps to himself), as well as children who love animals and help provide plenty of companionship for your fur-baby.

About: Hi, I’m Brianna! I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and have always had a passion for animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, so I understand that every pup has unique needs and routines. Whether your dog loves to play, go on walks, or simply relax and cuddle, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m currently taking online college classes, which allows me to be home most of the day and give pets plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, potty breaks, and love. I also have three friendly dogs of my own—Duke, Ramsey, and Cheddar—who have taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and caring for pets like family. My home has a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, and I always strive to create a calm, comfortable, and loving environment. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. My goal is to make every stay fun, safe, and stress-free for both you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently taking online college classes, which allows me to be home throughout the day. I plan my coursework around caring for the dogs, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I make time for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, walks if requested, and plenty of attention and cuddles. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love being able to spend my free time making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My home is a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated with kindness, patience, and love. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore while always being supervised. Inside, pets are welcome to relax and make themselves at home, whether that means lounging on the couch, playing with toys, or finding a cozy spot to nap. Because I’m currently taking online college classes, I’m home most of the day, so your dog will receive constant attention and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’ll follow your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications if needed, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to understand their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and secure throughout their stay. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll gladly send updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in trustworthy hands. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own three dogs every single day.

We will definitely reach out again when we are visiting the area and highly recommend her!”

“Was a great experience having Molly watch my fur baby Lexi. She went beyond what I had initially expected and made things easy and non stressful. Prompt messages, many pictures, and the reassurance my Lexi was taken care of put me at ease for my entire trip. I highly recommend Molly and already plan to have her check in on Lexi on my next trip. 5 stars well deserved.”

He is very sweet and gets along with other animals very well.

About: I have experience in working with animals in boarding and daycare and currently work as a veterinary assistant. I am trained in animal restraint, administering medications, and reading body language. I also have 4 family dogs and one of my own. Taking care of pets is my life. For work, I take care of animals at Cheat Lake Animal Hospital in General Practice as a Veterinary Assistant. I am also studying Veterinary Technology at Pennwest California. Because of my academics, during school, booking may be limited/may need to be changed around. I have a female rescue dog that loves other dogs and cats! If you want your dog to have a friend, I can bring her, or if not, that's okay too!
About: I’m currently a stay at home mom with open availability 7 days a week for drop ins and walks! All of my employees at my former full time job took advantage of the opportunity to bring their dog to work with them. I spent most days at work caring for my employees' fur babies in the office while they repair vehicles.

“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”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all kinds from rescues, seniors, puppies, and everything in between. I also have experience caring for cats and some smaller animals and reptiles. Feel free to ask me about your other pets and I’ll let you know honestly if I am able to provide care. I'd be a great fit if you're a detail-oriented or slightly worried/anxious pet parent who wants their routine followed to the letter, frequent updates, and someone who treats your home and family members with love and respect. Getting a routine right matters a lot to me. I ask lots of questions upfront and pay close attention to the small stuff: think feeding times, meds, favorite routes, comfort items, quirks, fears, or behaviors, because those details are what make a dog feel secure. I'd rather over-communicate than guess. I lived with and cared for a reactive dog for 13 years, so I know firsthand what it takes to help an anxious dog feel safe, and how to prevent conflict in the first place. All my dogs have been rescues, and I have a soft spot for dogs who need extra patience to warm up. I'm not a certified trainer, but I've spent years learning dog training, body language, and enrichment, and every interaction is rooted in positive reinforcement. I will require a meet and greet with your pet in advance of the first booking so they can become familiar with me, and so I can become familiar with their routine and needs. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to be present for your dog, whether that's extra walks, playtime, or just being around for company, and I'm happy to talk through what kind of availability works best for your pet! I work from home which allows me the flexibility to prioritize pet care in a way I wouldn’t be able to with a traditional office. This gives me the ability to keep anxious dogs company, breaks for play time, medication, cuddles or walks when they are needed, not when they can be fit in. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or theirs, I work on building trust by moving at each pet’s pace and honoring their boundaries. Safety is always my top priority, I supervise pets closely, follow all instructions carefully, and adapt to their unique needs. I keep spaces clean, hazard-free, and ensure pets have fresh water, proper food, and quiet resting spots. For reactive or anxious pets, I use gentle, low stress handling & positive reinforcement or redirecting to help them feel calm and supported. Every care plan is tailored specifically to your pet’s needs after we discuss what works best for them.
About: As someone who is always trying to live vicariously through dog owners, I have been a reliable and eager puppy and cat sitter since I was young - for friends, coworkers, neighbors, and extended family. I have experience and am comfortable feeding and exercising large and small dogs, puppies and seniors. I have always had cats, and have plenty of experience with administering oral medicines and asthma treatment. I am comfortable with cleaning messes, longterm stays, overnights, and honestly whatever else is needed during your time away. I would love to send pictures and updates of your pets as much as you would like them - your pets become main characters in my life within minutes of meeting them! I am your introverted, nurturing childless millennial that treats every animal with endless attention and love. As a speech-language pathologist, I also think that understanding animal communication and respecting boundaries are key. If your pet is showing me they need space, I will listen to them and make sure they are well fed, their needs are met and a soft presence is near. If they are showing me that they need more love and attention, I will stay and give them more love and attention! I can’t wait to meet your furry family. Right now, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I’m a teacher on summer break and transitioning into a teletherapy position, so I have plenty of availability to care for your pets throughout the day. I believe pets are happiest when their routines stay as consistent as possible, so I make it a priority to learn each pet’s normal schedule, preferences, personality, and needs before their owner leaves. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes and outdoor areas as needed, administer medications when required, and make sure pets receive the exercise, enrichment, affection, and companionship they have when you’re home. I pay close attention to body language, behavior changes, appetite, energy levels, and overall well-being. As a speech-language pathologist, communication is a big part of my professional life, and I bring that same attentiveness to the animals in my care. I believe good pet care means respecting boundaries, recognizing needs, and responding appropriately to what an animal is communicating. I also love sending photos and updates, because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, loving environment and to care for your pets the same way I would hope someone would care for my own.
About: *Hello! My name is Jessica and I cannot wait to pet sit for you! I have roughly 15 years of experience with pet/house sitting. With me, you'll be able to enjoy vacation, spend time with family, or whatever it may be with reassurance and a sigh of relief knowing that your little furry family member is in good hands. *I started off many years ago cat sitting for 2 cats and one of them needed a lot of care including medication twice a day. Over the years, that led to dog sitting 2 dogs. Pretty soon, that family referred me to another family, they did the same, and next thing I know I had about 4 different families that I was sitting for. I recently took some time off, but I am ready to start again! *For my job, I start at midnight until usually 8:30am. At some point during the day, I do online college courses (I'm done with schooling at the end of this year), so that means I will be able to spend basically the entire day with your pet! *Not only will booking with me help you, but it also benefits me because I thoroughly enjoy being around animals. Where I live, I am not allowed pets so anytime I am able to help people and it so happens to involve an animal, I am happy! *For pricing, I'm willing to talk about it. I will work with you especially if you have any additional services that may need done like cleaning up your house, etc. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you consider me when choosing a pet sitter. I work full time but start at midnight until 8:30am. That gives me the ability to be able to be at your house all day with your pet(s)! That means they won't be lonely while you're gone! In your house, I will give your dog all the comfort that it needs because I'm sure not having their owner around will be an adjustment at first. I am able to take your pet on as many walks as needed, follow whatever food schedule that is required, and have as much cuddle time as they let me! I would care for your pet with the mindset that this is a little family member and treat it with the kindness and respect all animals deserve and I never bring anyone else over to the client's house.

About: Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, offering comfort through tough times. I genuinely love being around animals and caring for them.

I’m home every evening to care for them, except Fridays when I’m working on the ambulance. Walking, feeding, watering, bathing and getting all their zoomies out. I enjoy walking and physical activity meaning they will be tired out by the end of the night.

About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I'm a passionate dog lover who believes every pup deserves the best care and a whole lot of love. Growing up with dogs, I've developed a knack for understanding their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's going for long walks, playing fetch, or just lounging on the couch, I love spending quality time with furry friends. I'm all about positive vibes and creating a fun, safe environment for dogs to thrive. Iv recently move to Pittsburgh from Erie Pa, so I don’t have many friends nor plans. This give me plenty of free time to take care of your fur babies In my home, if I offer boarding or daycare services, I ensure that the environment is safe, clean, and comfortable for the pets. I provide them with a designated space where they can relax and have their own belongings. Regular exercise and playtime are essential, so I make sure to engage them in activities that suit their energy levels and preferences. Feeding schedules are followed according to the owner's instructions, and fresh water is always available. I also maintain open communication with the pet owners, providing regular updates on their well-being. When caring for pets in the client's home, I prioritize maintaining a routine that is familiar and consistent for the pets. I follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and any specific care needs. I spend quality time with the pets, providing companionship, playtime, and exercise. I also take care of any necessary grooming, such as brushing or bathing, if requested. Additionally, I make sure to keep the home environment clean and tidy, respecting the owner's space and belongings. In both cases, I ensure that the pets receive plenty of love, attention, and affection. I am committed to their safety, happiness, and well-being, and I strive to create a positive and nurturing environment for them to thrive in.

About: Hi, I'm Sadie! I am a graduate of Pennwest California's Vet Tech Program and have plans to attend graduate school to become a veterinarian. I have worked at several different jobs where I gained pet care experience, such as doggy daycare/boarding facilities and pet stores. I currently work as an emergency vet nurse as Veg ER for Pets. I hold a current veterinary technician license and am RECOVER CPR certified in cats & dogs. I have been petsitting for friends and family for years and have watched large breed dogs, such as Cane Corsos, Akitas, and Great Danes. I own 3 Pitties, 1 Boston Terrier, and 3 cats. I have raised bottle-fed kittens/puppies. I can administer oral, ophthalmic, aural, topical, & injectable medications to a variety of animals. I can care for farm animals as well! Whether your pet is young, old, or has special needs, they will be well cared for while you're away. Rest assured, I will treat your fur babies as if they are my own! P.S. my rates are higher than I normally charge to cover the 20% deduction Rover takes from each booking. Tips are appreciated but not required :) I am currently taking an in-person class 2 days a week on Monday and Wednesday. If care is needed while I attend class, my mom (also a Rover sitter, Danyel Marinski) can provide care for your babies as well! I care for client's pets exactly as their instructions tell me too. My own dogs love to cuddle with me and watch tv in between playing with all of their toys! They're super high energy so they're taken on multiple daily walks.

“Henry had the best time with Michelle and her family! From start to finish, communication was excellent, and the daily photos gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We can’t recommend Michelle and her wonderful family enough!”
“Incredible sitters, had tons of room to let my 6 month old puppy run around and get all the exercise she needed. She was in such a good mood when I came by to pick her up and she looked so happy in all of the pictures they sent! I would highly recommend this location to everyone, was such an amazing experience for first time boarding!”

“Michelle was a great person for dodger. She took great care of him, he came home happy, and she frequently updated me with photos and texts about him. I will definitely use her again.”
“Nelia took excellent care of Daffy while our family was away! She sent us 2 to 3 updates each day, along with pictures of our dog, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. The photos showed that Daffy wasn't simply being boarded, but was truly being included in the family's daily activities. We could not be happier with the care and service Nelia provided. If you're in the Pittsburgh area and need a reliable, caring dog sitter, we highly recommend her. We will absolutely use her services again in the future. Thank you, Nelia, for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby!”

“We feel very fortunate to have found Gary and his wife who took care of our dog, Grace, for a month! They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”
