“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.”
“Ali was sweet and sent us pictures of our pup while she dogs at over a weekend. She was friendly with us and our pup in our introduction a few days before our weekend away and provided great care while we were gone.”
“My dog Reggie had a wonderful time with Sharon and her dogs! Sharon sent photos and videos throughout the day, and Reggie didn't want to leave! He came home happy and tired. Thank you Sharon!”
“Lucas did a great job watching our two dogs while we were away. Communication was easy and everything went smoothly. We’d definitely trust him to watch them again and would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter”
“Couldn’t recommend Breanna enough! She took such great care of my dog Rocky for a weekend! She sent the best update pictures, treated Rocky to pup cups, and made us feel so confident that he was being taken great care of! I didn’t know if Rocky would ever want to leave! Will definitely be using Breanna as a sitter again in the future!”
“She is amazing with dogs. She even goes the extra mile to ensure my pup is safe with a gps collar when they go to the dog park. She is responsible and responsive and will share pics and check in at whatever frequency you are comfortable with. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for boarding for their pup.”
“Victoria took very good care of my two pups! She was extremely communicative and sent me updates and pictures several times a day. I felt very comfortable going on vacation and leaving my dogs in her caring hands. She is very sweet and you can tell she loves all animals. My smaller dog who is shy even came out of his shell during his stay at Victoria's. Very happy!”
“Coralee is a perfect sitter. She and her family are kind, gentle and tremendous animal lovers. She is intuitive, asks all the right questions, and not only cares about your pet but also you as an owner. She is communicative with her updates and was ready to send a pic of Margot being adorable whenever the moment struck. I cannot wait for Margot's next stay at the Casa de Coralee! ♥️”
“Augusta is so kind and I appreciate her taking great care of my baby boy. She communicates well and sends picture updates which are much appreciated. My Russy feels comfortable at her home and I’m grateful for Augusta’s hospitality. 😊”
“Our experience with Adrienne was excellent! She was incredibly kind, professional, and clearly cared so much about our dog. Throughout the stay, she sent lots of updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us feel connected the whole time. It was clear from every message and photo that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Her communication was outstanding, and she went above and beyond to make sure both we and our pup had a great experience. We truly appreciated her warmth, attentiveness, and reliability. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Lucia was able to accommodate my last minute boarding request for my puppy. She's communicative, flexible, and provided a very welcoming home. I received multiple photos a day and even came back to a groomed dog. I would recommend Lucia!”
“Elizabeth was a great choice to care for my dog Dunkin! She let him make himself right at home in her space and sent consistent pictures and updates allowing me to have great peace of mind while away. Would recommend!”
“Teddy got along with Jessica very well and she sent updates frequently (txt and video) during Teddy's stay with her. Since it was Teddy's first boarding, we were bit nervous about him but Jessica took good care of him for the stay. Jessica was very flexible with drop off and pick up time. We'll use her service again and highly recommend her.”
“Justin was just fabulous with my corgi terrier mix Monty! He is communicative and conscientious and just a super nice person. He sent wonderful pics and informative and helpful updates. I felt completely comfortable leaving Monty with Justin and cannot recommend him highly enough. Five stars!”
“Krista and her dog, Griffin, were the perfect hosts for my two Malt-Shih 2 y.o. pups. As with any siblings they have very different personalities, one outgoing but the other, very anxious. Krista, with her calm demeanor, won him over in no time, assisted by Griffin (a large dog whose size would normally trigger fear) mirrored his owner's gentle personality. I will definitely request Krista and Griffin in the future.”
“Ellyn took the best care of our girl, Lili! She was super tired once home because of all the fun and adventures she had while we were away. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I’ve had a dog for 15 years of my life and miss having a dog around to take care of! I’ve dogsat for several friends and family members and always treat them like my own. I have also helped take care of puppies- so I am familiar with the crate training process. As a registered nurse, my schedule varies with the weekdays and weekends I am free. There are often a handful of days I am fully free to dedicate time for your pet! Whether your pet needs an energetic or quiet environment, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: If your cat is the ruler of the household, they’ve met their match! I specialize in providing top-tier care tailored specifically to felines. I’m fluent in cat body language, an expert string-toy wrangler, and a certified chin-scratch connoisseur. I understand that cats thrive on routine, so I make it my mission to keep their environment stable, clean, and fun while you’re away. You’ll get regular updates and plenty of photos of your kitty living their best life. I promise to give them all the attention, love, and space they need to feel safe, happy, and thoroughly spoiled.
“Heather was absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond while cat sitting on short notice. Great communication. Will definitely try to book her again for future visits. Highly recommended.”
“Rose did an incredible job taking care of Pen and Pepper while they were still getting acquainted with one another. She closely monitored both cat's needs and communicated promptly and clearly when any situation arose to make sure that she was taking the right steps. I'll definitely be requesting her services again!”
“I was so apprehensive about leaving my cat with a sitter for the first time. He's very shy, and up until this point, has only been left in the care of family or friends. I am so glad that I did bite the bullet, search through Rover, and ultimately find Sari. She has been such a kind presence for both him and me, from the moment she came for the meet and greet armed with a smile and her notebook to take copious notes on what his routine was and what my house rules were. From quickly responding to a text I sent her when his smart litter box inexplicably went offline, to consistent pictures and videos and remarks on how he was doing (very well, with such a kind sitter!), I went from checking my phone constantly while I was away to realizing the time, going, "Oh, Sari is about to be there for her check-in" and instantly feeling reassured and confident he was in good hands. I highly recommend Sari, and will definitely be reaching back out to her in the future as his sitter moving forward.”
“Tiffany did a FANTASTIC job with our kitties. One of my kitties has FLUTD, and she was knowledgeable of the disease and made sure they had fresh water daily and added water to their food. I loved getting all her photos, and I felt confident that my kitties were receiving the very best care. She's very trustworthy, and I will definitely use Tiffany again!!”
“Lucas was a great help last minute and made sure to find Smokey, who was hiding under a bed. Lucas did not include any written description of the visit but was forthcoming when I requested some additional details.”
“Paulette was wonderful! I’m a little overboard with my kitty care. Paulette took the detailed instruction sheet and follow up check in texts in stride. I also have an overboard cat, who has been known to climb up a human body in an attempt to hasten dinner, and Paulette showed care and love to the little panther. I will rebook with Paulette.”
“Regan is very professional, detailed and friendly. My cat really likes her. It really took some stress off my trip knowing I had someone so responsible stopping by.”
About: I've stopped in and taken care of several cats over the years - refilled food and water, emptied their litter box, played with their toys, supplied ample scritches. I love cats and their silly personalities, and though I don't personally have a feline friend, many of my friends and family members do, so I'm very comfortable with their mannerisms and needs for care.
“Yasmeen is an absolutely fantastic sitter! From her detailed updates, it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending quality time with him. She was completely on top of his food, water, and litter box routine, and even went the extra mile to be mindful of the house, like adjusting the windows when the weather got cold. I loved reading her notes about their visits. Knowing Benji was comfortable enough to greet her at the stairs, purr the whole time, and flop around for attention gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Yasmeen is observant, incredibly caring, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her to any pet parent and will definitely be booking her again!”
“David was great - so communicative and flexible! We added on an extra day at the last minute to beat the snowstorm, and he replied instantly about our request. He also sent photos and videos every single day! Highly recommend.”
“Ann was wonderful. She came every day and took care of the essentials. More than that she made friends with a very shy cat who finally ventured out to meet her. She is my top choice for the next trip.”
“Amy is great!! This is the second time Amy has watched our cats and they are always so well taken care of! We love all the updates and ease of communication. Highly recommend!”
“I definitely recommend Morgan to any pet parent in need of reliable care with great communication. Morgan was more than happy to stop back in to double check something with our kitties, and we couldn’t be more thankful!”
“Clareese did an amazing job and both my kitties loved her which is not an easy task! She was super communicative and check ins were exactly when I had them scheduled. Will definitely use her services again in future!”
“Haley took great care of our cats. She administered medication and earned the trust of our shy cat. She gave consistently updates with pictures, which we appreciated. We've already rebooked her for more check-ins. Thanks Haley!”
“Megan stayed overnight at my apartment while caring for my 2 cats, one of which requires daily medicine. Megan sent daily pictures and let the cats lay all over her. She was responsive and asked good questions during the meet and greet.”
About: I’ve had pets all my life and don’t want to imagine a day without a fuzzy creature around! I am responsible, loving, and nurturing to animals I stay mostly around the area I live, so am available to be around when your pet needs it. I will make sure they have adequate attention and care! I have a yard (not fenced) and live in a very nice walking neighborhood close to plenty of parks and beautiful sights that animals can enjoy

“Adrienne took wonderful care of Finn! She sent plenty of photo updates, and he clearly had a great time with her pups. Would be happy to have her watch Finn again, and I know Finn would love that, too!”
“Valerie was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable leaving Dusty in her care. She was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly genuinely loves animals. She sent thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our girl came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for…❤️ Valerie went above and beyond in every way, and it’s obvious she treats the pets she watches like family. We would not hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and dependable. Thank you, Valerie, for taking such amazing care of our furry family member!”
“Lucas, his dog Luna, and their whole family are wonderful! This was Walter’s first Rover experience and he had an amazing time! His seven month old self has never been so tired!!”
“Justin takes amazing care of Finn, and Finn gets along so well with Justin's corgi, Watson. We also get tons of great updates about how Finn's day is going, and it's clear he always has a great time. Thanks again!”
“Alexis was very responsive during our "interview" stage and very pleasant upon arrival. Although prince was anxious to leave he seemed to be comfortable and safe and that's all that mattered. Thank you for being available.”
About: Animals have been part of my life since day one. I grew up with dogs and cats of all personalities! I currently share my home with Kisses, my calico, and Teddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer — one of the highest-energy breeds out there — so if your dog goes a mile a minute, I'm more than ready for it!! Over the years I've dog sat for all sizes and breeds — from tiny lap dogs to large, boisterous pups — and I treat every single one like they're my own. Your pet will be loved, played with, and completely spoiled. My home has a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, zoom, and explore that's perfect for dogs who need to burn off some energy. I'm also comfortable administering medication, so pets with special health needs are absolutely welcome. Your baby will get the same attentive care at my place that they get at home. Whether your pet needs a calm, cozy stay or a high-energy playmate, I've got them covered. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work remotely with a very flexible schedule, which means pet care is never an afterthought. It's woven into my whole day. I'm home the majority of the week, and on the rare occasion I do step out, I'm never gone for more than 3 hours. Your pet will always have someone present, attentive, and ready to play, cuddle, or just keep them company. No long stretches alone, ever. My home is set up thoughtfully for both dogs and cats. The layout is split-level, with cats having full run of the upstairs and dogs enjoying the main floor plus access to the fully fenced backyard — plenty of space to play, explore, and burn energy safely. The two never have to share space unless everyone is comfortable. I do have a resident calico and a German Shorthaired Pointer, both of whom are friendly and social, so I do ask that visiting pets are comfortable around other animals of their kind. I always offer a free meet-and-greet before booking so we can make sure everyone — pets and people — feels good about the stay before any commitment is made. My home is puppy-proofed and high-energy-dog-ready, and I have 24/7 SimpliSafe security monitoring for added peace of mind. You can expect regular photos and updates throughout every stay because you shouldn't have to wonder how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions exactly. Your routines, your rules — meal times, crate preferences, favorite toys, walking routes — I stick to all of it. I respect your home as if it were my own, always clean up after your dog outside, and scoop litter boxes daily. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are the whole point.
“We had a great experience leaving our 7 month pup, Willie Nelson, with Christy! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone for the day and Christy made it very easy. She provided many photos/updates throughout the day. Thank you Christy”

“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.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they have always been cherished and treated as members of my family. Also have experience looking after my neighbors’ pets while they have been away. I just love dogs so much so it’s not even a chore for me! I work from home 5 days a week, so my schedule is very flexible for afternoon walks or drop ins! Weekend afternoons are also usually good. At my parents home we would always have a fenced in yard and usually keep the dogs on a leash of some sort outside (we have a long one for the yard so they can still run around) For younger dogs we always crate when we’re not around until they are trained!
“Beau had a great time with Joe. He is a 2 yo 100 lb mastiff-Dane puppy who likes to romp around. Joe was happy to accommodate him and provide him with activities and supervised play with the other pups he had visiting. Joe is not intimidated by big puppies in the least. Beau returned home happy and tired! I feel comfortable having Beau stay for an extended stay with Joe and his family.”
“It was Riley's first road trip to Philly (from GA). While his humans cheered on the Temple football team, Brittani provided excellent care and showed Riley around! She even took professional-grade photos of his walks! And, Riley enjoyed playing with her fur baby. If Riley's in town for any other home Temple football game, he'll be asking to go to Brittani's!!”
About: I've lived with cats and dogs all my life. Currently working from home. I worked at Petco for five years so I know a lot about pet care.

About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a lifelong animal lover based in the Pittsburgh area. I understand that pets are family, and when you leave them with someone else you want the same care, attention, and safety you’d give them yourself. I spent 13 years with my sweet mini poodle mix Theo, who taught me how much love and personality can live in one small dog. Because of him, I’m especially attentive to each pet’s unique quirks, routines, and comfort needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, couch snuggles, or a consistent routine, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most at home. I’m dependable, communicative, and I’ll send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet will be treated with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own. I currently work from home and have complete flexibility with my job to ensure your pet gets as much attention, walks, and love throughout the day as they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely, provide a calm environment, and ensure they are always supervised, secure, and well cared for. I will always send you updates and let you know what we are up to on our days together.
About: I have had the pleasure of working as a pet care attendant for two separate boarding facilities over the course of 6 years!

I currently am working short part time shifts only a few times a week. Other than that I am available to walk, feed, and play with any pets that need it! I have no other animals in my home, and live near plenty of green space as well as some dog parks for walks and play time!

About: Hi! I’m currently focusing on dog walking and drop-in visits, and I’m not offering boarding at the moment. I’m a caring and responsible dog lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs. I started taking care of pets for family friends about five years ago when I was living in Boston, and since then I’ve gained experience with dogs at different stages of their lives. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, safe, and loved while staying with me. I understand how important it is for pet parents to know their dog is in good hands, so I always do my best to provide attentive and thoughtful care. I usually work best with calm dogs who are comfortable relaxing on their own. For boarding, dogs should be able to stay home alone for a few hours and should not have severe separation anxiety. I’m more experienced with smaller dogs (under 25 lbs) and enjoy spending time walking, playing, and making sure they feel at home. I’m always happy to schedule a meet & greet so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. Please feel free to reach out and tell me more about your pup — I’d love to meet them! I currently work 30 hours per week. I’m an early person so I’m happy to take pets to early walks! I am happy to walk your dog 3 times a day. Please chat with me! To ensure I can continue providing the highest standard of care to my clients, I have made the decision to limit my service to take care of one dog at a time I make sure I understand the needs from pet parents. Initially, I would ask pet parent to answer a list of questions I found helpful to know. For example, what’s the daily walking/sleeping/exercise/wasting routine. I will also take pictures/videos through out the day, and send them daily to keep parents updated through the boarding period.
“Great communication, punctual, sweet with my dog, productive walks (poop & pee everytime!) and provides good updates ! And helps with last minute bookings when she can. Big fan of Abigayle!”
“Yasmeen is just the sweetest and truly cares about animals. She was so patient with my skiddish pup and did her best to make sure my dog felt safe and comfortable with her. I'd highly recommend!”
About: Responsible, caring, and outdoorsy: I am eager to get to know you and your dog! I got my graduate degree from Pitt this spring, and would love to make sure your furry friend can enjoy their summer break too! I have been dog-sitting and caring for my friend's pets for many years, and understand the level of trust required for the job. I'd love to take your dogs for walks/runs, but am equally as comfortable playing fetch or just feeding them and cuddling. Very flexible schedule wise, and happy with early mornings, late nights, and extended stays. I am eager to get to know you and your pup(s), I'd love to chat more about the job and my experience / qualifications! I work from home with very flexible hours, and am happy to care for your dog via drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care in your home! I am not currently providing pet-care in my home. I am more than happy to come to you and offer animal care in your home/area!
“Ann has been walking Hank for the past month. She has been so dependable and conscientious. Hank is sweet but he can be obstinate about walking. Ann has gone above and beyond to work with him and help him trust her. Hank loves her!”

Will definitely be using Breanna as a sitter again in the future!”
“She is amazing with dogs. She even goes the extra mile to ensure my pup is safe with a gps collar when they go to the dog park. She is responsible and responsive and will share pics and check in at whatever frequency you are comfortable with. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for boarding for their pup.”
“Victoria took very good care of my two pups! She was extremely communicative and sent me updates and pictures several times a day. I felt very comfortable going on vacation and leaving my dogs in her caring hands. She is very sweet and you can tell she loves all animals. My smaller dog who is shy even came out of his shell during his stay at Victoria's. Very happy!”
“Coralee is a perfect sitter. She and her family are kind, gentle and tremendous animal lovers. She is intuitive, asks all the right questions, and not only cares about your pet but also you as an owner. She is communicative with her updates and was ready to send a pic of Margot being adorable whenever the moment struck. I cannot wait for Margot's next stay at the Casa de Coralee! ♥️”
“Justin was just fabulous with my corgi terrier mix Monty! He is communicative and conscientious and just a super nice person. He sent wonderful pics and informative and helpful updates. I felt completely comfortable leaving Monty with Justin and cannot recommend him highly enough. Five stars!”
“Krista and her dog, Griffin, were the perfect hosts for my two Malt-Shih 2 y.o. pups. As with any siblings they have very different personalities, one outgoing but the other, very anxious. Krista, with her calm demeanor, won him over in no time, assisted by Griffin (a large dog whose size would normally trigger fear) mirrored his owner's gentle personality. I will definitely request Krista and Griffin in the future.”
“Ellyn took the best care of our girl, Lili! She was super tired once home because of all the fun and adventures she had while we were away. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I’ve had a dog for 15 years of my life and miss having a dog around to take care of! I’ve dogsat for several friends and family members and always treat them like my own. I have also helped take care of puppies- so I am familiar with the crate training process. As a registered nurse, my schedule varies with the weekdays and weekends I am free. There are often a handful of days I am fully free to dedicate time for your pet! Whether your pet needs an energetic or quiet environment, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Pico had such a great time with Natasha and Pluto! She was attentive and checked in with us frequently, letting us know our pup was having a great time. She’s absolutely a dog lover and will treat yours with great care. I highly recommend her!”
“Lindsay and her family were so sweet and accommodating. They went out of their way to learn about my puppy and sent updates. They were there when I needed them. Thank you!”
“Valerie is absolutely fantastic! Our dogs had such a fun time with her — she took them on hikes, to the park, and made sure they got plenty of treats, playtime, and attention. We could tell they were happy and well cared for the entire time. Valerie also sent us tons of photos and videos, which we really appreciated — it was great to see all their adventures while we were away. One of the best sitters we’ve ever had!”
“Tyler was great with my dog Riley! She immediately took to his house and yard, as well as Tyler himself. He was flexible in terms of scheduling a meet-and-greet that was kinda last minute and was professional. He also provided plenty of photo updates of Riley throughout the stay. Overall, I would definitely use Tyler again for dog sitting.”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“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!”
“Nelia and her family embraced Calvin like he was their own:) All his needs were met and he was loved. I could not have asked for a better first experience for my Calvin! Thank you for your amazing care!”
About: I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and have been caring for cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Growing up with pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding that every animal has their own unique personality and needs. Over the years, I've cared for and babysat pets for friends, family, and neighbors, earning their trust through dependable, compassionate care. My experience includes caring for cats and dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, energy levels, and temperaments—from playful puppies and energetic dogs to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, as well as independent cats and affectionate lap cats alike. I understand that some pets warm up quickly while others need time to build trust, and I always let them set the pace. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, cleaning litter boxes, or simply providing companionship and comfort while you're away, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well cared for, while giving you peace of mind knowing they're in reliable hands. I work full time out of the home, but can be available to board animals overnight on weekdays for (1) night with a pick up by 7:30 AM the following day and can board or house-visit over the weekend (Drop off Friday after 4PM thru Sundays-pick up by 5 pm Sunday). I can do house visits any week day after 4 PM. I have a fenced in backyard and a very walkable, safe neighborhood. My home is a pet's paradise with lots of comfy couches and plenty of space to run and play, and windows for clocking in for Neighborhood Watch :) I don't mind animals sleeping with me, if they want to! Otherwise, plenty of places for furry ones to nap and snooze whenever they choose.
