“This was the first time I took Josie to stay with Lisa. She had so much fun and loved staying with Lisa. I knew Josie was comfortable when Lisa said she followed her everywhere.”
“Christina and Daniel were amazing! My pup loves being at their farm and being able to to just be a dog! They sent me photos the whole time and let me know how he was doing! They are truly the best board we’ve experienced!”
“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!”
“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”
“I’m so grateful to have found Kelly! She took such great care of my dogs while I was away. They came home happy, relaxed, and even wearing the cutest bandannas! She’s incredibly friendly and thoughtful—what really stood out was how she kept me updated with lots of pictures and messages without me even having to ask. That kind of communication gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Great peace of mind leaving my two dogs with Samantha when a family emergency mandated I leave town suddenly. She was quick to respond and and very flexible with pick-up days/times, which I really appreciated. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and calm from all the playtime they got in Samantha's large, shady backyard. Will definitely book again with Samantha in the future!”

“Maria takes great care of our golden Bella! The updates and photos are always appreciated and give us peace of mind that Bella is also having fun while we are away! The treat bag she sent home with Bella was such a cute personal touch and an example of going above and beyond what is expected!”
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and leaving our dogs for the weekend so we weren’t sure what to expect. She made everything so easy - sending pictures and videos throughout the day and keeping us updated on how the dogs were doing. Our pups especially loved the fenced-in backyard! We highly recommend her and will definitely book again.”
“Skyler is an extremely professional dog watcher. I was extremely nervous about leaving my young Australian Shepherd with anyone as he is very attached to me. My dog was very content when Ingot him back and healthy. Skyler provided constant updates and photos of my dog while I was out of town. She greatly exceeded my expectations and is a trustworthy pro.”
“My girl came home happy and worn out. She must have played non-stop with Raleigh's dog Gargamel, as the pictures and videos sent to me all showed. My feeling is so much better with her coming back from Raleigh's place than I have felt recently when I left her at a kennel. I'll soon be a repeat customer.”
About: Hello! My name is Skylar and I am a recent college grad who has been in Pittsburgh about 2 years. I have over 70 5-star ratings on Wag, which is a similar app to Rover. Back home in Ohio I have a sweet Mini Schnauzer who is 11 years old. He is blind and diabetic, so I have lots of experience taking care of older pups with medical needs. I also have a 7 year old Australian Shepard who has LOTS of energy and is always bouncing off the walls. She loves to play and herd her brother. Two new additions to the fam are 2 year old bernadoodles-lots of dog in the house! I miss my sweet pups, which is why I love to use Wag and Rover :) I absolutely adore any dog I come across and would love to get to know you and your doggo! I have a bit of an odd schedule where over the winter I work M-F completely remote and in the spring-fall I work Th-M half remote and half in person at North Park with Tuesday and Wednesday as my “weekends.” There is some variability to this schedule, but for the most part it is as described. I live with my boyfriend in a three level townhouse that has a large yard and is on a safe, quiet street. When fury friends visit us they are allowed on the furniture and we make sure to take them out on walks at least 4 times a day. Typically this looks like right when we wake up, during lunch, after dinner, and right before bed. When I stay at a pup’s house, I make sure to leave it cleaner than I found it!
“Nelia and Brett were wonderful. They cared for Bronson as if he were a part of their household and were very communicative and accommodating. I highly recommend their service.”
“Tia and her family were great! Jax had a great time. She is great with communicating and sent lots of pics/videos! Definitely recommend her to anyone in the Pittsburgh area.”
“Monica provided excellent hospitality to our pup and made him feel safe and loved. She was excellent with communication and daily pictures of our pup looking happy, calm, and relaxed during his stay. I highly recommend Monica.”
“Raeann is a compassionate and caring person who showed great affection towards our 12 y/o girl. Would recommend her services and would like to use her services in the future.”
“Joni is awesome! She was available on short notice and was so great with Cooper, who can be a bit of a challenge sometimes. He can't wait to go back for another visit!”

“Mia did an excellent job checking in and taking care of our two bunnies. You can tell that she is an animal lover, and we felt very comfortable with her taking care of our babies!”
“Lori is the absolute best Rover you could ever ask for! The peace of mind that she gives us when she watches our cats is absolutely worth every penny and more. She sends you a small message every day detailing the status of your pets with multiple pictures included. Lori’s not messing around with the pictures either; they’re Instagram ready! I can’t recommend her highly enough, she’s wonderful!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Lindsay! She was fantastic from start to finish. She took the time to visit a few days before her check-ins for an in-person meet and greet with our kitties, which we really appreciated and found very reassuring. While we were out of town, she arrived exactly when she said she would and carried out everything as promised. She was kind, sweet, very responsive, and clearly cared about our kittens. They recently got spayed and neutered and had e-collars, and she was comfortable with the extra TLC they would need. Her pricing was also very reasonable for the level of care and professionalism she provided. We felt completely at ease knowing our kittens were in such good hands. I would absolutely book Lindsay again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sydnie was absolutely wonderful with my cats, Fiona and Bella! She checked on them twice a day, was always on time, kept everything clean, and made sure they were well fed and happy. She sent me photos and updates every day which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She even brought in my packages! I came home to two very well-cared-for cats. I highly recommend Sidney and will definitely book her again!”
“Abbigail did an awesome job taking care of my cat Toby! She was responsible and reliable and our cat warmed up to her quickly. My cat also requires injected medication 2x/day and abbi was gentle with him and was able to get his medication in. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Mikaela is my go to. She is super professional and very communicative. We absolutely love having Mikaela drop on on our cats and I always get a bunch of photos of them afterwards.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life, and have experience with both small and large dog care. Experience giving medication to dogs. I also enjoy taking dogs for walks.. I currently work part-time, but can arrange pet care around my work schedule. I am a recent high school graduate and will be going to college in the fall, but can be available from time to time to sit. I’m a lifelong dog lover, I’ve never known a time in my life where I haven’t had a dog as a pet. I treat my dogs like my siblings and would do the same for any dog I’m caring for.
About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart—I’ve had three of my own and think every single one is a cutie (even the sassy ones!). I’m experienced with all the essentials: administering medication, keeping litter boxes fresh and clean, and making sure your cat gets the right mix of playtime, snuggles, or space—depending on their personality. Whether your kitty is a lap cat or an independent adventurer, I’ll treat them like family.
“Jenn took the best care of our two cats while we were gone, was super responsive and sent lots of pics! Thank you for taking such great care of them, we will definitely book with her again!”
“I enjoyed having Cassandra take care of my cats this past weekend! She was consistent in getting in touch with me about visits and also gave them great care! They were very happy when I got home and were in the mood to play with their cat toys! I have great confidence in pet sitter Cassandra!”
“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: I’m an animal lover! I not only grew up with several pets including cats, dogs, fish, parakeets, & hermit crabs - but I now have two cats and two dogs of my own. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to check on your pets when you’re in a bind. That’s why I decided to reactivate this account, to help others out! Pet services give me the pleasure of working with animals while helping out the owner. I enjoy running, walking, hiking, and play time, as well as just relaxing with animals. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with love and care. Availability : Mondays = After 5pm Tuesdays / Wednesdays / Thursdays = 12-1pm & After 4:30pm Fridays = After 3:30pm Saturdays & Sunday’s = Open I treat all animals as if they were my own which includes patience, love, affection, and gentleness. I’m also accommodating to their specific mannerisms such as high energy, size, disability, etc.
About: I have had cats my whole life until the sweet girl I got in 3rd grade passed away (she hung on until I made it all the way through college! <3 ) Other members of my household are allergic so I can't get another one right now so please let me come hang out with yours!

About: I have had all kinds of pets from a young age, have a degree in veterinary technology, and have had several animal care jobs. Safety and communication are always my priorities! I am available full time for pet boarding! I take an occasional dog walking appointment but otherwise I am home 24/7. I have 3 years now of full time pet boarding experience! I have a half acre of fenced in area, and can separate my top and bottom floor of my home if your pet needs their own space! Outside play time is always supervised to ensure safety.
“Maria and her entire are fabulous! It is Ellie’s second home. Thank you for your generosity and extraordinary hospitality. We feel so fortunate to have met you this year. Happy holidays!!!”
“Juniper had the best day with Adrienne and her pupper. I felt very secure leaving my furchild with her and appreciated all the photos and videos.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have loved animals my entire life. I have been a pet sitter for many friends and neighbors over the years and had my own canine companion for 10 years. She passed away in November of 2023. Animals deserve to be loved and treated like family. I promise that your dogs will be treated very well and that they will truly enjoy their “vacation” at my home. It’s difficult to leave your “loved ones” in the care of others and I know that feeling. Rest assured that they will be cared for and spoiled to the best of my ability! I am a behavioral therapist who works with children and families. I have a hybrid job which means that I work from home doing Telehealth services and I also see clients in person at times. I am home for most of the day and this worked perfectly when I cared for my late dog, Arwen. I do not have any pets currently. I have an elevated deck that is only accessible from the house. It is surrounded and my dog loved to spend time out there basking in the sun. I have a yard but it is not fenced in. My neighborhood is quiet and very dog friendly.
About: A couple of months after we married my husband adopted our first dog, Sandy, and I’ve been hooked ever since. That was 26 years ago. Both of my sons are adults now so I have free time to focus my attention on your baby. Your baby will have my undivided attention. My property is fenced and I will accompany your baby outdoors. We can play fetch or simply keep each other company. I will do what it takes to make your baby comfortable and happy.
“My puppy Breya seemed to be having fun by the pictures that were sent to me. When I picked her up she was tired and didn't even want to stick her head out the car window on the drive home. To me that means she had a good time and was occupied while there and not just laying around being ignored. She is an active puppy. Definitely will schedule with Amy again.”
About: I’ve always had a love of animals and owned animals from as small as a fish and as large as a horse. I know leaving your bestfriend with someone can be nerve wracking but I make sure to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I also specialize in dog with special needs or previous injuries I work from home a couple times a week and the other days I usually stop home for lunch. I am also home in the evenings. I have a large yard that is well maintained and I take walks daily. I also have a camera to watch your dog or cat while I am at work.
“Melissa and her family were so amazing with my dog, Cooper. They graciously took him last minute for 2 daycare visits and treated him just like one of their own. He got tons of outside time and snuggles and was tired out when I picked him up each time. We gradually introduced the dogs and they got along well. You can tell their house is full of love– I felt very comfortable leaving my pup there to enjoy his time.”
“Christy watched my dog for daycare for a week and was great! My dog is deaf and blind so it’s difficult finding someone I trust with her, but Christy was wonderful and sent lots of photos each day.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have a sweet three-year-old chihuahua mix, and I truly enjoy meeting and bonding with new dogs. I work from home full-time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, walks, and play throughout the day. I live on Pittsburgh’s Northside with a small, secure fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor fun. Since I work from home full time, I can give your pet plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a small fenced-in yard in Pittsburgh’s Northside for safe outdoor breaks, plus I love getting out for longer walks with my dog, at least once a day. Pet care is part of my daily routine, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like family. They’re welcome to relax on the furniture, nap on the couch, or sunbathe on the deck. I stick to their regular routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to help them feel comfortable and at home. I also have a baby gate to limit access to stairs for small dogs when needed. Since I work from home, I’m always nearby to give them the attention, care, and love they deserve.

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.
“This is the first time I used Rover for dog sitting, and I absolutely hit the jackpot with Greg!!! I highly recommend him to anyone in the North Hills area of Pittsburgh for dog-related services. He is very friendly, caring, highly flexible, and trustworthy, and he maintained excellent communication/was highly responsive during the week that he watched my lab, Lily. Not a single concern crossed my radar leaving Lily with Greg for doggy day care. I knew she was in good hands and would be looked after well.”
“Maria and her husband were awesome! Very nice, very easy to work with, and extremely respectful. Got some great photos. There yard was nice and clean and it was clear my pup had some fun!!”
“Geoffrey was wonderful with Titan! He took him on plenty of walks, sent me lots of updates, and even dealt with Titan being on restricted play time with his partial ACL tear. I picked up an exhausted, happy pup!”

“Mia is an absolute joy! You can tell she is a dog person and I felt comfortable immediately allowing her to care for my fur baby. She’s very responsive, sends great updates, and I could tell my pet was genuinely enjoying her company! Would use her again and again. The best!!!”
“I am very grateful to have found Robin. I have a senior, female pit bull, who was abused before I adopted her. Lily senses Robin's kind nature. She has taken to Robin as a new "best buddy". She's happy to go on walks with Robin and looks forward to her visits. Robin is attentive and a great listener. She is also very punctual, which I appreciate greatly. She has followed all of my instructions perfectly (a rare attribute these days). I have found Robin to be very trustworthy. I give her 5 stars and would give her a 10, if possible. If you want a trustworthy, affectionate and kind hearted sitter, hire Robin.”
“Lindsey was wonderful! I appreciate her taking the time to walk with Ella. Ella was comfortable and happy. This is great practice for her to learn to walk with other people.”
“Kade was very nice and understanding when I needed to move our walk back 30 min, which I really appreciated! He went above and beyond in offering to arrive early to meet our dogs, and was more than capable in walking both of them even though one can be very reactive. Our dogs seemed to really like him and enjoy their walk with him too!”

“Joni is awesome! She was available on short notice and was so great with Cooper, who can be a bit of a challenge sometimes. He can't wait to go back for another visit!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. This was their first time staying with someone other than a family member and they did so well with her. We received pictures of them while we were away and they got along well with her dog Sammy. We will definitely be asking Emily to watch our dogs again next time we go away!”
“Mikaela was great with Cashew and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of during our four-day trip. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding when we had some unexpected travel delays, which was so nice of her! Will absolutely book again. <3”
“Damara was wonderful! She was very caring and thoughtful with Theo. From the pictures and communication I could tell that Theo enjoyed his time with Demara and her daughter. Would definitely rebook in the future!”
“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.”
