“Ashley was a fantastic sitter! Our dogs are 4 y/o and 6 mos. old and she handled them without issue. We feel lucky to have found her and we’re sure Ralphie and Seymour would love to see her again!”
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“Vivian and her family are the best! Above and beyond I could ever expect or hope for. They are excellent with my dogs in every way. I feel content and at ease knowing they are being taken care of by Vivian and her family. I recommend Vivian highly and without hesitation.”
“Maria put our mind at ease by sending pictures of our luna each day and a comforting few sentences on how she was doing. This was our 1st time with Rover and we were very satisfied with Maria.”
“We just picked up Lola yesterday after she spent three days with Jessica. She came home totally exhausted and happy. We received beautiful photos of Lola and even a video of Lola singing with Jessica's son. We feel confident that Lola was happy and safe and loved while we were gone. We definitely plan to use Jessica next time!”
“I can confidently give Coralee my utmost recommendation as an outstanding caretaker. Coralee and her family were absolutely incredible throughout the boarding process. They took our dog, Duke, in over the holidays as another member of their family. Coralee was responsive and sent updates which allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing Duke was happy. We will absolutely be booking with Coralee in the future, and I will be recommending her to our friends and family!”
“Our dog Taylor had another great weekend stay with Andrew and Karen! Andrew sent us lots of updates with photos and videos. Will be using them again soon for our week long vacation.”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Loved that Melissa sent updates and pics everyday. Helped me to feel confident that he was receiving excellent care. He seemed like he enjoyed his "vacation" with his pals. Will definitely use her again.”
“Beatriz always does an amazing job! She is so sweet and caring and my dog is always so happy when I come pick her up. I can tell she takes amazing care of the dogs in her care and my dog has even started getting excited when we pull up to her house. She is so responsive and always sends the cutest pictures and videos of my dog while I’m gone! She’s truly the best and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, she will treat your pet like her own!”
“Becca was a joy to work with, and took excellent care of my sweet boy Gunner. He had an awesome time with her pets and kids. I think he barely realized we were gone for a week! Thanks Becca ?”
“Lindsay and her family were wonderful and accommodating. They were also very flexible with my pickup time. They and their dog Murphy took great care of Sadie. I will certainly use Lindsay again to take care of Sadie next time I’m in the area. I highly recommend.”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Laura and her husband's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. They truly treated my dog as if it was their own. My pup had a minor medical issue (nothing to do with their care) and they made sure he got prompt care and expertly administered his medication. I loved the frequent photo and video updates. They rival some of the professional photos I've had taken! Will use again!”
“Stacey was great. She has a lot of experience with bigger dogs, and I felt immediately comfortable with her watching my dog after meeting her. I hope to book with her again!”
“I would give 10 stars if I could! I had a last minute work trip and Richard was so accommodating. So kind and I am so appreciative. Mosi had a great time and was ready for a nap when he came home!”
“Victoria was amazing! She sent videos twice per day, which made us very happy. The communication with her is really good. Our shy little Koda was clearly comfortable with her and the dogs, and even came to her for pets, which he doesn't do with anyone other than me and my husband. He also came back clean and brushed very well. We are very satisfied, Victoria will definitely be our first choice next time we need to travel! Thank you for everything! :)”
“Augusta was great! My dog is always happy to see her. I even had a flight cancelation and was late picking my dog up and Augusta was completely understanding and flexible.”

“Manda is great! She kept our dog in the past and just finished doing drop-in visits for our cats. She clearly loves animals and treats them as her own! She sent great photos and kept us well-informed. I highly recommend her!”
About: I have always lived with cats in the house. I work with cats at PetSmart cleaning the cages, giving food and water, and socializing the cats. I have a flexible schedule. I am on weekdays and weekends in the morning, afternoon, and night. I am happy to see your pet at anytime. I respect cats if they do not want to interact with me. I will back away from the cats if they seem angry or scared.
About: Hello! My name is Amanda and I am 32 years old. I have always had a strong love and passion for animals of all species starting at a young age. I have worked in several animal shelters and have worked as a veterinary technician, as well as being a certified dog groomer. Animals will always and forever be my passion. In the past I have owned fish, dogs, cats, and a variety of reptiles and pocket pets. As of now I have 2 cats and 1 dog! Your fur babies are my top priority while you are away, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they are spoiled and in the best hands! Please consider me as the pet sitter for you; I promise you will not regret it! My schedule is mostly flexible. Being able to leave for a couple hours a day is a must for me since I have other obligations. I keep my schedule on here up to date as much as I can. I take care of pets in their own homes with the utmost respect. I want them to be comfortable with me so I will try to keep their routines going to help out with making them feel at ease.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and have been caring for them my entire life. I have experience with both large and small dogs as well as cats. I’m currently home from college for the summer and working part time so I have a good amount of time on my hands, especially on Sundays and Mondays. I experience with almost every type of pet care you can think of including things like bathing, crating, playing, walking, feeding, and even giving medication.
About: I been taken care of dogs since I was 13. My friends and neighbors have relied on me I'd say I'm pretty good at taken care of them. I'm currently working. Only 2 days a week sometimes Tuesday and Wednesdays I work. I'm trying to make extra money so I can pay my bills. I have a fenced in yard. my dog is really nice sometimes doesn't like men bc he was abused. My neighbors dogs are mean and aggressive.
“Rebecca did a great job of looking after our three 6 month old kittens and stayed with them overnight for three nights. She kept in touch and sent us plenty of updates and photos. We were very happy with how it went and would highly recommend Rebecca as a dependable and professional cat-sitter!”
About: I have 4 cats and one of which is feral. I have found and re-homes a cat found in my street to get it safe and well taken care of. All care needed and wanted I have been able to support through the years. I have volunteered through a cat shelter for cats with special needs and feral/barn cats. I loved to grow trust and love with these animals. As well as finding furever homes!
“Jessica was very good at communicating and even sent me pictures of my cat while I was away. I was able to enjoy my trip more knowing that Nala was being cared for! I definitely plan to use Jessica again when I am out of town in the future.”
“Crystal went above and beyond to give our 2 boys the best time of their lives while we were away. They have very different personalities and energy levels, but Crystal catered to their every needs and made sure they both were comfortable and stimulated the whole time. I loved reading Crystals updates and seeing pictures of their catnip parties and playtimes. She even vacuumed up the tufts of hair they leave when they tussle around! I'm sure the boys were disappointed to see us instead of her when we arrived home! We will most definitely be contacting Crystal for all our pet sitting needs from now on!”
“We used Melissa for a second time to go away over Labor Day weekend and again she did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. She is so thoughtful towards our animals and makes an extra effort to keep us in communication throughout the experience. We will definitely use her services again in the future when we make more travel plans!”
About: It’s no mystery, I love cats! I was born and raised with cats so I know them like the back of my hand. I take pride in being a perfectionist, empathetic, and patient. From the snuggly cats to the cats who simply want their food bowl and to ignore me, I get it and I will always deliver consistent luxurious service to your feline family members. While you take care of you, let me treat your cat like the king or queen they are!
About: What makes me different is that I truly enjoy being around Cat’s and creating a calm, safe environment for them. My experience caring for family pets has taught me how important consistency, affection, and attentive care are for every type of animal.
About: I currently work a hybrid schedule with Carnegie Mellon and I love having a canine companion to explore the outdoors with! I was raised with a variety of large dog breeds in the home and worked at Beaver County Humane Society throughout college. For drop-in visits in your home, please provide me with specific care instructions and how your animal(s) prefers to be interacted with (lots of love or do they keep to themself, specific feeding requirements, etc.) For stays in my home: I have a large home and yard with plenty of room for play and naps. Smoke-free living space where cuddling on the furniture is encouraged! Potty breaks are usually as often as needed since I'll be home throughout the day on most days (I will provide my schedule during your pet's stay with me). I use a tie in the yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor running since my yard is unfenced, though leashed walked can also be used if your dog prefers that. I have never used a crate for any of my animals, please let me know if your pet is more comfortable with one. I've also owned/cared for horses, birds, snakes, chinchillas, iguanas, goats, pigs, and a variety of other mammals. Frequent updates and pictures will be given to you throughout your companion's stay with me. Currently unable to take any large breed dogs for boarding. My lab/collie mix does well with smaller breeds. My cats interact well with dogs since they have been raised with one. My dog is on Frontline, and I require an active flea and tick prevention method be used for your pet as well. I work a hybrid schedule (remote about 3 days/week), so potty breaks and walks can occur at nearly any time throughout the day, depending on your pet's needs. If your dog needs a crate for comfort and "their space," please bring their own for use. I have an unfenced yard so leashed breaks and outdoor ties will be used.
“April is the BEST and my two boys absolutely love her. She takes time with the animals and gets to know their personalities. I fully trust her with my pets and my home. I have rebooked her several times and will continue to use her going forward.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up with cats and because we were never allowed to have a dog, I would take care of dogs in the neighborhood. I would dog sit, walk them constantly, and would even bathe them. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian. However the thought of having to put an animal to sleep, kept me from fulfilling that lifelong dream. With two Golden Retrievers of my own Duke 7 years old and Enzo 7 months old who I adore more than life itself, and a cat my life is full. Looking forward to adding more fluffy friends to my life, and maybe even adding some excitement to my dogs life by adding new friends. I currently work full-time, but the majority of my days at work are spent working from home, so my schedule is flexible. The more dogs the merrier ! I will do whatever is necessary to provide the best care when someone else’s baby is in my care. I know what I would want for my dog, so I would treat each animal that is in my care the same way I would treat my own dog with lots of love, treats, walks and playtime!
“Lilly was great with my cat Ria. It was the first time Lilly cared for Ria and she did a wonderful job not only with the feeding, litter box detail, playtime, and photos, but her communication with me during her visits was awesome.”
“George did a great job taking care of my elderly cat, including giving daily medication. He kept me updated with regular photos and videos so I knew she was doing fine, and was well looked after.”

Gabi and Pepper love making friends with other dogs! Our Cat Joni enjoys watching the dogs play from other side of the room and keeps to herself. No dog is too big or too high energy.

“Jessica was flexible and easy to communicate with. She has a HUGE yard with a tall fence. I think my pup thought she had her own personal dog park! She came home happy and tired 😊”
About: Growing up family and friends of the family always gave me the responsibility of caring for their pets whenever they may needed. I grew up with having pets of my own as well. I always had a cat and a dog or two. My family had Whippets and a Doberman. Along with dogs and cats I always kept fish, and a reptile of sorts. I enjoy the science behind pet keeping along with the companionship. If trusted with your pet I can promise they will be loved as if they were my own, because that’s what they deserve! I work a block away from my home. I wake up a few hours before I’m due so I can take care of everyone. I’m home every lunch break for walks and pets then back home about 3 hours after that. My cat always has full reign on the house and my dog has a private bedroom with crate for when I leave. A nice sized fenced in private back yard great makes for a good playtime or potty break.
“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'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.
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 have raised rates due to high demand going into the summer. If you’re a returning client, please reach out and if there are any issues with cost, we can work something out. 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.
“My puppy had a great experience at doggy daycare with Maria and Tony. The communication was great throughout the day and I felt confident Samson was well taken care of. Will definitely book again!”
“Laura was wonderful with our puppy! She was super communicative and provided a clean, warm, and safe space for our dog for the day. Our young puppy was well supervised, had plenty of bathroom breaks, opportunities for rest and exercise, and lots of great enrichment thanks to Laura's unique household set-up. I feel very fortunate to have found Laura as a great option to send my dog and have already booked several more dates.”
“I was definitely a nervous new mom dropping Rosie off with someone I just met but Jordan was kind, patient, and thorough. She is also extremely knowledgeable and supportive. Rosie had the best day on her farm!”
About: I've had a strong passion for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family relied on me to care for our dogs, cats, and hamsters. I now live in my own home with 4 cat children. I have dog-sat and cat-sat for several neighbors. I am very experienced at dog and cat walking, bathing, feeding, and medicine-giving. During the week I work as a full time engineer and cat mom. On the weekends, I have plenty of free time to hang out, play in the yard, or go for walks with your pet. In my home, I have 4 cats of varying ages (1 yr, 3 yrs, 4 yrs, 6yrs). They are friendly and well-adapted to other dogs and cats. They often have playdates with my parent's 16 year old cat and 7 month old kitten. Each of my cats are vaccinated, neutered, and love making new friends! In your home, I will accommodate any requests you may have. I will ensure the safety and happiness of your pet above all else.
“Steve was a big help so we could have peace of mind that Maive was being well cared for while we where visiting In the east Pittsburgh area. Big fenced in yard! We had to change the drop off time and Steve always quick to respond, would definitely use his dog sitting services again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I grew up with dogs and over the last 10+ years became a huge cat person as well, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. Since I work from home, pets get plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and walks throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. I currently have two cats, so I understand how important it is to trust someone treating your pets like family. I’m dependable, patient, active, and love spending time outdoors getting exercise with pets while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.
“Adrienne is awesome and straight up THE BEST! She is super dedicated, very professional, and easy/very reliable regarding communication. I can’t recommend her highly enough, and I have zero hesitation leaving my Lily with her.”
About: I'm a newly stay at home mom with plenty of time to care for as many dogs as possible. I have owned dogs my entire life and could say I have upwards of 30+ years of animal care experience. I have even worked with other animals including horses, chickens & ducks, bunnies, goats. I currently own a senior golden retriever mix and a young golden retriever. However, stubborn breeds are not a problem for me as I did own a husky for 11 yrs. I am fully comfortable administrating medication as I spent 3+ years working as a vet tech prior to starting a family. Please feel free to message with any questions, I will be happy to talk to you to ease any concerns. I recently became a stay at home mom with 2 children in elementary school and one toddler at home so I have plenty of time. I'd love to spend my additional time playing with the dogs or going for walks. I have a fully fenced in yard (6ft tall), that was reinforced to contain a husky. The outside gates are padlocked shut at all times so no worries about one being left open. No dog leaves my house unless in the fence or on a leash.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for friends and family since I was a kid. I love all animals, especially dogs and cats. I can’t walk past a dog on the street without asking politely to pet them! Two years ago I rescued my dog, Stanley, who is a 24 lb terrier mix. He was abused and took a very long time to warm up, but after a lot of patience and love he’s now thriving and the best boy. I learned a lot with Stanley and feel equipped to work with shyer dogs. Stanley also likes hanging out with other dogs and would enjoy some company around the house! I currently work from home full time, so my availability is flexible. Stanley and I would be happy to have you hang out with us at my place (I’d recommend a meet and greet first). Or, I could stay at your place with your pet if that’s better for them, as long as I can have access to the WiFi so I can work. I live close to a nature trail that I take Stanley on daily, and we’re very familiar with the neighborhood. I can take frequent walk breaks and crate your pet if needed.
“We are first-time dog-owners, and finding someone to watch our puppy Royce felt overwhelming. But Royce stayed with Tyler for a day as a trial run and came home happy and unstressed - and we felt so thankful to have found someone who was not only comfortable for Royce but who also enjoyed our puppy. The pictures and updates were very fun to receive; Royce clearly had a great time. We have already booked two future boarding dates with Tyler!”

About: I grew up always surrounded by pets. I have consistently had family dogs since I was 6! I have been dog sitting for family and friends since 9-10 yrs old! I am currently a nursing student. Most of my free time is in the evening or on weekends, but I can make overnight dog sitting work! I am comfortable with walking dogs with or with out leashes. I am also an athlete/runner so I can also take dogs on runs if high energy!
About: I have extensive pet experience, having owned both cats and dogs throughout my life. Currently, I'm raising two shepherds and three cats. I've trained my own pets and have also helped family members with training. Additionally, I've provided care for pets while their owners are on vacation, ensuring they receive the love and attention they need. My hands-on experience with various breeds makes me well-equipped to care for your furry friends! I work as a family-based therapist, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to spend more time with animals, whether it’s walking, caring for, playing with, or training them. My job provides me the opportunity to balance my professional responsibilities with my passion for animals, ensuring that I can give your pets the attention and care they deserve. In terms of safety, trust, and environment, I prioritize creating a secure and comfortable space for pets in my home or my clients' homes. For in-home care, I have a fenced yard that provides a safe area for pets to play and explore. I also use room separators to ensure that pets remain in designated areas, and I have kennels available if needed for their comfort and security. I come prepared with my own leashes and have prior experience handling various situations to ensure the pets' safety. This allows me to guide pets effectively and manage any potential challenges that may arise. My focus is always on creating a trustworthy environment where pets feel at ease while receiving the care they need.
“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've had a dog every year of my life until last year. I've raised puppies and then watched them grow old and had to say goodbye. I loved every minute, but cant say goodbye again. I do take care of my kids dogs. We are blessed to have a little Frenchie and a Bernese to care for from time to time.I am retired since September, and cant think of a better way to spend my time than playing with and caring for Pups! I am recently retired and no longer have a dog of my own as she passed last Christmas. Finding myself with alot of extra time, I know that caring for Pups would be a happy solution. As we no longer have a dog of our own, we do keep our kids dogs alot. We have a huge yard and stay with the dogs when they are outside. One is a Frenchie and the other a Bernese.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a youngster. They have always made my heart happy! Family and friends have trusted me to care for their pets whether it was dog sitting, walking, or just dropping by they have always known their fur babies were in good hands with me! I currently work part time as a Medical Assistant which leaves lots of room for me to do what I love- spend time with dogs. If your dog prefers a furry companion- I have a very well socialized pup of my own who loves to play and go for walks. I am a lover of the outdoors myself so long walks are just as much as a bonus for me as they are for your pup. If your dog prefers to lounge around I can handle that as well!
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I’ve grown up around family pets and understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m available 24/7. I have 4 dogs at home and am willing to pet sit at any point of any day! I’m just getting started on rover and would love to get my name out there! I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both personal and professional settings. I previously worked for a local groomer as a dog bather, where I became comfortable handling dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition, I regularly care for my family’s dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, spending time with them, and pet sitting when family members are away. I also help care for pets for extended family members, including my aunts and uncles, who trust me with their dogs while they travel or need extra help. I truly enjoy being around animals and am looking forward to expanding my services to help more pet owners feel confident their dogs are safe, cared for, and treated like family.
About: I believe our pets deserve the best care especially in times where pet moms/dads have to provide and take care of themselves, that’s where I come in to help focus on your pet and give them the same energy you would, so you can think about you! Patience, perfectionism, calmness, consideration, these are all things I take pride in. I am a very loving, gentle care taker (who loves to burn some energy off too through play!) I will focus on making sure your pets every need is met while going above and beyond to ensure they feel emotionally happy, safe, and respected by me. I have a very flexible schedule and am available any day, any time! I have reliable transportation and am available last minute if you need me I always start with a clean & sanitary space by ensuring food bowls, water bowls, beds blankets etc are all sanitary. Enrichment activities, brain stimulation, exercise, massages, cooking homemade dog/cat food, outfits/shoes for heat/cold protection, etc.
About: Hi there! My name is Melissa, and I have never met a fur baby that didn't take to me quickly. Our little family includes quite a few very friendly, well behaved, and super spoiled fur (and a few non fur) kids. Our 'mini zoo' as we call it, is home to our 2 dogs, Benji (Shichon) and Cheza (white German Shepherd); 2 rabbits Khaleesi (lion head), Jack (Russian dwarf); multiple aquariums, 2 whites tree frogs Mel and Gibson; an axolotl named Niko; three cats Kira, Lilly, and our "foster fail" 2 yr old Salem! (Phew, i told you it a zoo! Haha) Any time new dogs are at our home, we keep the cats in a separate closed off part of the house, so don't worry if cats make your fur baby a little excited. Our home is filled with lots of love, treats, and toys (more than likely one or two will make it's way home with you haha) I have had dogs my entire life. I spent 7 years volunteering at our local animal shelter walking and training dogs before they found their forever homes. Working with dogs of every size, from all walks of life, has prepared me for pretty much anything I could encounter. Even though being a full time wife, brand new mom, and mini zookeeper keeps me very busy; I am still left with a lot of love in my heart for all living creatures. So now that my mini hiatus for maternity leave is over, it's time to get back into spending as much time with 'all the dogs (or cats, bunnies, chickens, birds, ect)' as I possibly can. Whether that is done by walking, stopping to visit them while they are home alone, having a fun doggy daytime party in my home, or having them stay for a slumber party, I am totally game. I have been walking on the side though another service for quite some time. I am proud of my 5 star rating, and owner compliments about my extra caring nature, trustworthiness, and reliability. Among my family, friends, and colleges, I am known to be extremely reliable, trustworthy, and happy to do whatever I can to make someone else's life easier. My goal is to continue to do that for you, and give you a piece of mind to know that your pets are in the best of hands. I am, and have always been the go-to person for all of my family & friends when they need someone to take care of their fur family. I am often told that they admire how much I love their pets as my own... which pretty much means I spoil them all with immense amounts of love, but I just can't help it! But I promise that I can guarantee I will do the same for yours. I am currently a full time wife and new mom, so I am home full time! My husband also works from home, and is usually available to give me a hand when he needs a mental health break throughout his work day. And what's a better mental health break than spending time with dogs? In our opinion, nothing! We already are caring for our own, so a couple more are just a bonus. So this means that your pets will have constant love, and plenty of opportunities to exercise. In my home we have 3/4 acre of land. Our yard is partially fenced for the time being (will be fully fenced in this fall). All visitors to our home have access to our enclosed porch for some relaxation and sunning. For potty breaks and outside exercise a high grade durable yard lead is available, but not used with escape artists, or small dog breeds. Dogs are never left unattended outside at any time. Escape artists, extra strong doggos, and small breed dogs will be leashed and additional precautions will be discussed in advance with you.
“You did a great job with Seamus today! I prepared a portable water bag with one Greenie's capsule-size soft peanut butter pill pockets, broken up into small edible bites in a closed container for my Yorkie! (Too much gives him soft stools.). kmc”

About: I have 6 years of experience with dogs. From doggy daycare, Kennels, and veterinary clinics I have all the experience your furry friend would need! I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, medications and so much more! I will care for your dogs like my own. I currently work part time at a kennel I've been at for 3 years now. I can do Monday-Friday evening as of right now. I do Walks mainly but also drop ins and daycares. I do not do overnight stays or in home stays.

About: Animals of all kinds have always been drawn to me. for as long as i can remember, i’ve wanted to take care of animals in some fashion. Rover is the perfect way to do that while i’m still in college! I work part time at Getgo on south pike rd, while also going to school full time for Psychology. I’ll be able to spend time with your fur baby after work, after school, and in my free time thursday - saturday. we have two golden retrievers who are the sweetest boys around. we have a front and back yard, neither are fenced in due to their size.
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life. I currently am a mom to 2 kitties and 1 2 year old dog. I have a lot of experience training puppies and dogs alike and I have no problem caring for unaltered or reactive animals. I am currently working a part time job that allows me to be available during the days until 3 pm and late at night after 10 pm. I can easily help your animals feel relaxed in their own homes. My cats are refreshed daily with new food and water as well as maintaining my dogs current training and schedule.
About: I have had three younger siblings with also having three different sized dogs as I grew up at the same time as I would babysit them, and it was harder to watch my siblings than the dogs lol. I currently have a 6:30-3:30 am job in McKees Rocks and only 25 minutes from home in Oakmont! I love dogs and have had all sizes of dogs throughout my life! I’m looking for the dog companionship and something else to do on my nights and weekend off that are filled with loving pets! I would love to have my own dog but my building is a little strict with sizing on Pets, so this is the best I can do for now! I would care for them by their rules and perhaps a itemized schedule and or list of things they love to do, things to avoid and also make sure to be around the dog constantly and give numerous amounts of attention and care while away from their owners

“Ashley was a fantastic sitter! Our dogs are 4 y/o and 6 mos. old and she handled them without issue. We feel lucky to have found her and we’re sure Ralphie and Seymour would love to see her again!”
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“I can confidently give Coralee my utmost recommendation as an outstanding caretaker. Coralee and her family were absolutely incredible throughout the boarding process. They took our dog, Duke, in over the holidays as another member of their family. Coralee was responsive and sent updates which allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing Duke was happy. We will absolutely be booking with Coralee in the future, and I will be recommending her to our friends and family!”
“Our dog Taylor had another great weekend stay with Andrew and Karen! Andrew sent us lots of updates with photos and videos. Will be using them again soon for our week long vacation.”
“Jordan was exceptional with our pup! She is an expert in the field and provides high quality care. She provided regular updates with pictures during the booking. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Becca was a joy to work with, and took excellent care of my sweet boy Gunner. He had an awesome time with her pets and kids. I think he barely realized we were gone for a week! Thanks Becca ?”
“Lindsay and her family were wonderful and accommodating. They were also very flexible with my pickup time. They and their dog Murphy took great care of Sadie. I will certainly use Lindsay again to take care of Sadie next time I’m in the area. I highly recommend.”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Laura and her husband's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. They truly treated my dog as if it was their own. My pup had a minor medical issue (nothing to do with their care) and they made sure he got prompt care and expertly administered his medication. I loved the frequent photo and video updates. They rival some of the professional photos I've had taken! Will use again!”
“Stacey was great. She has a lot of experience with bigger dogs, and I felt immediately comfortable with her watching my dog after meeting her. I hope to book with her again!”
“I would give 10 stars if I could! I had a last minute work trip and Richard was so accommodating. So kind and I am so appreciative. Mosi had a great time and was ready for a nap when he came home!”
“Victoria was amazing! She sent videos twice per day, which made us very happy. The communication with her is really good. Our shy little Koda was clearly comfortable with her and the dogs, and even came to her for pets, which he doesn't do with anyone other than me and my husband. He also came back clean and brushed very well. We are very satisfied, Victoria will definitely be our first choice next time we need to travel! Thank you for everything! :)”
“Annette was lovely and caring to both Gustavo and me. Delays in flights meant I was 7 hours late in getting to Gus. Annette graciously dealt with this inconvenience. She was always quick to respond to communications. Most importantly, Gus clearly felt at home and welcomed from the minute she greeted him. When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
“Excellent experience! Boarded a 5 year old Siberian Husky for 9 days and the service was flawless. Lindsay has the family atmosphere and accommodations to support any and all breeds! We will definitely use Lindsay in the future. A kennel is a prison(23 to 1 lockdown); give your baby to Lindsay!”
