“Jordan did an excellent job caring for Blu at her home while I was away on an extended weekend. Her qualifications speaks for itself making her more than qualified for the job. She did an awesome job me providing me regular updates on how Blu was doing to include photos making me feel at ease for it being his first time away from me and his normal environment. Definitely recommend and would trust Jordan again for future needs.”
“Super cool guy, our pets absolutely loved him and he took very good care of them for us. Kept us updated with lots of photos, will definitely be booking again in the future 😊”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Heather was amazing with Mika over the long weekend! She was super accommodating, very responsive, and kept us updated with daily pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mika was in such great hands. We really appreciated how caring and attentive she was. We would absolutely book with Heather again and highly recommend her!”
“Brittany was kind and calm with our Huckleberry. She worked with him on house training even and he had an accident free weekend. That alone is amazing! It was clear he enjoyed his stay and was happy as a clam when we picked him up. We will be using her again when I'm the area.”
“This family is amazing with my 2 dogs! Absolutely above and beyond excellent care for 8 years. I never worry when I travel because I know my dogs are safe and well taken care of the entire time I am gone. I cannot recommend them more. If you want the most excellent care possible; this family is it!”
“Frodo spend Christmas time with Amanda and he came back so happy, he met new friends. Amanda took care of him like Frodo was his own dog. We could spend our time with or families because we knew that Frodo was more than fine...he was doing great!! Thanks, Amanda!”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
“Carol is amazing. She was loving and kind with our pup and we were extremely comfortable with her when we left our pup at her home. We received regular photos and updates on sleeping, eating and playing. I highly recommend Carol!!!!”
“Renae was wonderful with Jack! Reluctantly, my partner and I had to have him boarded for Thanksgiving and he was given such good care. He's pretty new for us and was eased into some social time with kids and other dogs, giving us more confidence for him to be around our families and in large group settings. She updated me periodically which put me at ease. I can vouch for her kindness and quality of care. Book Renae!”
“Kimberly was just great with our boxer mix Rocky. She gave us daily updates along with pictures and we felt confident and at ease that Rocky was being properly cared for. We will definitely schedule Rocky with Kimberly again.”
“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”
“Mar is great to Molly. Even when a family emergency came up and I had to extend the visit unexpectedly, Mar was super helpful and accommodating. Molly gets excited when we pull up to the house, so I know she is in good hands and has a great time when she's there.”
“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
“Beatriz by far has been the best sister for my pup! I trust her completely and is the only person I feel comfortable leaving her with. She sends tons of pictures and videos and my dog always comes back as happy as ever.”
“Jennifer was great with Bobo my 8 year old Australian Shepherd. Her huge backyard was completely fenced so I had the great sense of safety that Bobo would not escape & get hit by a car. Jennifer sent me pictures & updates every day & I could tell he was comfortable & happy. I will certainly use Jennifer any time I need to leave town. I highly recommend her…”
“Ashlyn was great! She made the the dropoff so easy, and we had no issues. She was great with sending pictures, and eased my worries big time. This was the first time we've left our little guy in someone else's care, and I was very nervous, but she did a fantastic job walking lots and taking care of him. We would definitely have her watch him again 😁✋”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Alexandria to take care of our cat, Midnight, for a week while we were out of town. Alexandria stayed at our house to keep Midnight company and to take care of feeding, litter box cleaning and quality play time. She kept me updated with frequent photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Midnight seemed comfortable and happy around Alexandria from day one. She also took care of various household chores such as garbage collection and bringing in mail and packages. After getting home, not only was Midnight in top shape, but also the house! I highly recommend Alexandria to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy petsitter, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future.”

I promise to offer your pets a safe, trustworthy environment. No matter if I come to your home or they come to mine. They will be taken care of as my own and that is a promise on my part.

About: I live in Scottdale but I’m very familiar with ALL surrounding areas. I’m a homemaker, so I’m available practically any time to come offer care to your furry (or not so furry!) loved ones! Currently we have a very hyper 32lb female Siberian Husky & a spunky 15lb female Pomsky. They are both crate trained & house trained. I recently lost my female German Shepherd; & a year prior my male Siberian Husky. My male Siberian was epileptic so I’m experienced in offering meds and know that having them on hand & on time IS A MUST for things of this nature! My shepherd was very elderly & required extra love & care also. *I offer basic kitty care. (Also if you don’t mind if I bring my sister along she is EXCEPTIONAL with cats more so than I am. I cannot host cats in my home due to the prey drive of my husky, sometimes she’s ok with them, other times not. But I or my sister & I both will come to you! (I pay my sister personally out of my own pocket, no extra fee for you!). *I’ll do feedings for lizards as I have had a few bearded dragon myself as well so I’m knowledgeable here also. (But under no circumstances ask me to care for your snake!) *I offer walks, playtime, feeding & water breaks, treat time, medication administration all in my standard fee. Anything else, just ask! I’m very flexible & willing to work out most things if we can come to an agreement suitable for both sides. Can’t wait to meet the furry parts of your family.🐾 Pretty much available whenever. I can usually work out something that’s suitable if I am not. Reach out with any questions! We can almost always work out an agreement. No fence but my yard is safe, multiple leashes, 2 porches, in a friendly community for walks. Small home but very lovable and friendly and cozy. My dogs are crate trained but good with other dogs, socialized, UTD on shots, but my girls are not spayed so I prefer altered males only at this time.
About: I have taken care of animals on my own for over 4 years. I love all animals. I currently have 2 cats and one dog who I love very much. All my pets are really spoiled, in my home they come first they are my children. I would love to watch dogs and act as if they are my own. My dog is currently a puppy and he hyper and loves to play. He is extremely friendly. I can help with basic training like sit, paw, down, up. All my experience with animals has come from having many on my own. So I self taught myself. Animals deserve all the love possible. I currently do not work so I have all the time to give any dog attention and love. I can help with potty training and other simple things. And will keep your dog company and make sure they are not alone I have a yard it’s not fenced but I do have a puppy who would keep your dogs company and they will have a playmate because he’s super friendly and playful.
About: Animals have been a passion of mine my entire life! I have owned and loved cats and dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 10. I would love to show that same love to your babies, too! I am available to do in-house stays, walking, play dates, and much more! I work full-time, but work from home so that makes it easy for me to care for your furry friend. My weekends are usually filled with playing with my puppies, but I would love to make time for your pets to join us for walks or play dates! I have a fenced in yard and an open floor plan home that allows for plenty of room to play, rain or shine. I live on a quiet street that makes walking your pet a breeze. All doors remain shut in my home to ensure no nosy pups can get in to things that they should not. I am big on taking pictures and can keep you updated on the status of your pet to ensure you feel comfortable with leaving your pet in my care!
About: I've been a pet sitter for about 15 years. My german shepherd came into my life 7 years ago which gave me another view of pet care experience. I have worked with and cared for dogs with anxiety, fear, aggression, and in need of extra cognitive stimulation. Okay with giving meds and teaching tricks. Currently, I'm working nursing shifts as needed, with running errands on my days off. I'm more often available than not and have flexibility to work around others schedule. I have a back door doggy door that leads into a fenced in back yard (approx half an acre). I also live in a small neighborhood (very little traffic) with about a mile loop for walks. My military and nursing experience makes me very type A. Everything is always clean, tidy, and on time.
“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little hesitant dropping off my baby boy…however Caitlin made me feel right at ease! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and I could tell Biscuit was having a great day! If I am ever needing a sitter in the Johnstown area again, I would definitely contact Caitlin again!!!”
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.

My cousin trains dogs and has been for 3 years, she gets them as little puppies and I am always around them. I walk dogs frequently and am around them frequently! I help a lot of people dog sit! I would like to get some extra cash and exercise while I am at school! I have an easy schedule this semester and would love to walk a dog or care for a pet. I’ve dog sitted many times before. Everytime I make sure I take them on walks, make sure they pee/poop, and feed them properly, but you can’t forget to love on them!! At home I love on my pets a lot, feed them, and change their litter box.

About: Hello! I’m Anjel. I have had dogs my entire life of all sizes and breeds and most definitely a dog person (Don’t worry cats, I love you too). I understand the hardships of raising a well-rounded pup and I’m here to help! Patience is always key with any pet. Besides having dogs my entire life, I also previously worked at a Doggie Daycare & boarding facility and have house sitting/pet sitting clients that have been with me from the start of my pet sitting career starting 18 years ago. I enjoy all puppies whether they are large or small, young or old. I have experience with a variety of dog breeds and do not turn away any breed. I have experience administering oral medications, eye drops, insulin (as well as testing before meals), and preparing meals for EPI dogs. I look forward to connecting with you! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns! I do prefer to stay within a 7 mile radius of my location, an additional fee $5 per visit/day will be added for those bookings greater than a 7 mile radius. I have open availability on the weekends and flexibility during the week. I currently work in Allegheny county right off of Rt. 51 so I am able to travel to all areas with ease. I am typically scheduled 8am to 4pm Monday through Friday but experience cancellations throughout the week where I’m typically home before 4pm. Leaving my morning availability open, possibility for mid day potty breaks when I experience cancellations, and my afternoon/evening open for walks, drop-in visits, and house/pet sitting duties. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I like to stick to the pet’s routine to avoid any changes in their typical schedule. I take extra precautions when it comes to open doors, ensuring they are correctly and safely in their crate when applicable, and accompanying them when outside for potty breaks. Safety is my number one priority as I know it would be devastating if any accidents were to happen and I am proactive in covering all the bases to ensure that they do not.

About: Hi there! I’m Jae☺️, a passionate dog lover and experienced dog walker. With a deep appreciation for all breeds, I’m dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and engaging experience for your furry friends. I prioritize their well-being and happiness during our walks, ensuring they get the exercise and socialization they need. Having worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll in the park or an energetic romp, I tailor each walk to suit your dog’s preferences. I’m also committed to maintaining open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos during our adventures together. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members and give them the care and attention they deserve! Let’s make every walk a tail-wagging good time! I’m currently in college so this schedule goes great with my classes. Sometimes my classes get canceled and I can dog sit early or take walks early. I have a dog playground in my neighborhood. I also have plenty of space inside to play and run around. I promise to make this a great experience.
About: As long as I can remember growing up we always had animals mostly dogs. As I got older I have always been the one my friends and family come to when they need someone to care for their pets. I would pet sit, take them on walks , stay with them and play with them. I am a true dog lover through and through. I have had dogs my whole life . My son has 5 dogs and pretty much everyone I know is a pet lover so no matter where I go I’m around animals. I watch dogs for friends and my son often. I can take them to the dog park to run and play with other dogs. We can go on walks and play in the yard.
“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: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments for over 12 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, young, or older, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need. My schedule is busiest Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, but I’m available the rest of the afternoon and evening for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. On Saturdays and Sundays, I have open availability and can provide flexible scheduling throughout the day. I do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s needs and keep communication clear and reliable. I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide fresh water, feeding, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention based on each pet’s personality and needs. I keep a clean, calm, and secure environment, closely supervise pets, and make safety my top priority at all times. I also provide updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Jordan did an excellent job caring for Blu at her home while I was away on an extended weekend. Her qualifications speaks for itself making her more than qualified for the job. She did an awesome job me providing me regular updates on how Blu was doing to include photos making me feel at ease for it being his first time away from me and his normal environment. Definitely recommend and would trust Jordan again for future needs.”

“Brittany was kind and calm with our Huckleberry. She worked with him on house training even and he had an accident free weekend. That alone is amazing! It was clear he enjoyed his stay and was happy as a clam when we picked him up. We will be using her again when I'm the area.”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
“Renae was wonderful with Jack! Reluctantly, my partner and I had to have him boarded for Thanksgiving and he was given such good care. He's pretty new for us and was eased into some social time with kids and other dogs, giving us more confidence for him to be around our families and in large group settings. She updated me periodically which put me at ease. I can vouch for her kindness and quality of care. Book Renae!”
“Kimberly was just great with our boxer mix Rocky. She gave us daily updates along with pictures and we felt confident and at ease that Rocky was being properly cared for. We will definitely schedule Rocky with Kimberly again.”
“Jennifer was great with Bobo my 8 year old Australian Shepherd. Her huge backyard was completely fenced so I had the great sense of safety that Bobo would not escape & get hit by a car. Jennifer sent me pictures & updates every day & I could tell he was comfortable & happy. I will certainly use Jennifer any time I need to leave town. I highly recommend her…”
“Ashlyn was great! She made the the dropoff so easy, and we had no issues. She was great with sending pictures, and eased my worries big time. This was the first time we've left our little guy in someone else's care, and I was very nervous, but she did a fantastic job walking lots and taking care of him. We would definitely have her watch him again 😁✋”
