“Madyson was excellent with my dog Copper! His stay with her and Sparky involved lots of play time, cuddles, and great communication with us! Madyson is very attentive with any needs Copper has. I would highly recommend her!”
“This was the 2nd time Nicole watched Pepper for me, this time it was for a couple of days. She takes such good care of him, treats him like he’s her own little guy. Nicole is amazing!”
“Brook did a great job with my dogs. We did a meet and greet with her dog a week before their stay. She sent a lot of pictures and updates during their stay. I had to extend my dogs' stay due to a delay in our travel. Brook accommodated the change. My dogs came home happy and healthy.”
“Michelle took amazing care of our dogs while we were out of town! Her house and yard are a dog’s a paradise. She was also super responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend her for boarding!!”
“Christina and Daniel made us feel so comfortable leaving the dogs! They take great care of them and send wonderful pictures throughout. Highly recommend them!”
“Amanda and her children took very good care of our dog. He was very happy there and ate all of his food which he normally doesn't do. Amanda was very accommodating and we would love to use her services again when we are in town. Her fenced backyard was a big plus for our dog who likes to be outside. Also, our dog liked playing with her dog.”
About: I would love to give your pet the best love and Care. I have experience walking, nail trimming, administering medication, and assisting with mobility issues. I love all animals and would happily welcome yours into my home. I am looking to provide dog walking/quick visit services on weekdays after my work, and boarding services on weekends when I’m off. While in my care, your pet will have my diligent attention and care. I have a big yard for running and playing. It is not fenced, but I can utilize tethers to give them room to move around under supervision. I will make it my top priority to love your pet and follow your care instructions.
“Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our one dog right before their stay. Debbie and Adam gave Cooper extra love the whole week since he was feeling sad and a little lonely. He always loves lounging with his friend Sadie too :)”
“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.”
“Brittany was great, she let me bring my dogs over before my scheduled date so the dogs would be a little more comfortable. She was great with the dogs and she responded quickly to any messages. I will be using her again in the future.”
“Tina was great. The nice perk is she has a big yard and a doggie door so my Yorkie could go in and out of her house whenever he wanted to. He is very attached to people and she took very good care of him!”
“Michelle and her family were absolutely wonderful with Quincy! This was our first time leaving him for an extended period, and they made the entire experience so much easier with updates, pictures, and messages throughout the week. It was obvious how much they cared about him and it truly felt like he was part of their family while he was there. Seeing how much attention and love he was getting gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. We are so grateful for the care they gave him and would absolutely trust them with Quincy again in the future. We highly recommend Michelle and her family to anyone looking for a loving home away from home for their dog.”
“The girls LOVED their time at Kacy's. They were passed out for nearly a day after they got home. Kacy has two sweet pups of her own that played my my kids the entire time. Will be calling in Kacy again. Thank you!!!”
“We feel very fortunate to have found Gary and his wife who took care of our dog, Grace, for a month! They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”
“Lisa was amazing! She took such great care of our Newfie while we were away. She kept in touch every day and sent many pictures! She even gave Coco a bath and excellent hair cut! I would trust Lisa to take care of Coco anytime! We will definitely continue to use Lisa in the future for all our dog sitting needs!”
“Kristina was amazing with Lincoln! He was very nervous and shy at first but she did amazing with him. She sent updates and pictures over the weekend so we could stay updated with how he was doing.”
“Deanna was great and able to work with my 60-pound deaf puppy, and Maxwell loved having fellow dog friends to spend time with. Came back absolutely tuckered out.”
“Jessica and Theodore took great care of Norton and he seemed to love all the attention from their four young children. They sent lots of pics and updates and I felt very reassured that he was in good hands.”
“Andrew and his family were wonderful with our dog. We were so comfortable leaving our dog in his care and our dog warmed right up to him. We received texts, with photos, from Andrew every day. He is an awesome dog sitter!!”

“Our experience was great and my two little cats were well taken care with their food, water, and litter each day. She was easy to communicate with and kept track of things for us very well!”
“I was nervous to leave my two cats alone for a long weekend but Molly was great with both of them. Even my shy girl came around to her by the end of the weekend! From the meet and greet through the entire weekend I was away, Molly was great with communication and taking care of both my fur babies. Will definitely rebook with her for future trips!”
“Christine was a real lifesaver. I live near Pittsburgh and I had a medical emergency in New Jersey that required me to be here for the entire month of August. Christine dropped by my house twice a week to feed my cats and play with them a little bit and she was marvelous. She sent me pictures of the cats every visit and was very good with communication. She was extremely dependable and showed up on time every time as agreed. She was great. Very friendly and very dependable. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thanks for everything Christine! Can’t wait to get back to my fur babies lol”

“Kimberly was great with our diabetic cat and giving him his injections while I was out of town. She was also quick with her replies and scheduling. I would reccomend her to any cat parent. Thank you Kimberly!”
About: Both my grandmother and brother have cats, so I’ve grown up understanding and appreciating what it takes to care for them—ensuring their enrichment, exercise, proper nutrition, and happiness. I also had the amazing opportunity to attend zoo camp, where I learned valuable skills in animal care and behavior. This experience deepened my knowledge of how to create engaging environments for pets, tailored to their needs. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and genuinely enjoy going the extra mile for animals, whether that means administering medications with care or making sure the litter box is spotless. I believe every pet deserves a happy and healthy experience, and I’m committed to providing just that!
“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!”

I will treat your furry-friend as if they were my own and continuously spoil them during our time together!
“Kristie provided amazing service while caring for our 17 year-old cat while we were on vacation. She gave him lots of attention and was always on-time with giving him his medication that he needs twice a day. She gave us peace of mind knowing that he was being very well cared for. We will definitely use Kristie for pet sitting again!”

About: While I am currently unemployed and staying at my parents home, our family dog (Havanese) of 17 years recently passed away in February 2026. Now that my mother is retiring this summer, we wish to fill the empty home, and our combined newly gained free time, with some furry friends! For in-home boarding we will be a mother-son team with pretty wide open schedules to care for our furry guests, and will provide a great big house and yard in a great pet-friendly neighborhood for them to enjoy! I can also sit at your home if that is more convenient for you and the pet. My parents dog recently passed away at the age of 17. While I was living with them I helped to raise and care for her throughout the years. I thankfully and gratefully have always had dogs to care for throughout my entire life, from as a young child all the way to just recently with the passing of our most recent dog in February 2026. Your pet will have our full attention and their health and happiness will be the priority. We don't live very busy lives and have lots of extra free time now to care for them.
“We had a wonderful experience with Dasia! I felt completely at ease leaving my puppy in her care. Updating photos and videos daily made me peace of mind. Dasia is a wonderful sitter for my yuno.”
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 2 dogs, a purebred 32lb female Siberian Husky & a Designer Breed 15lb female Pomsky. They are both crate trained & house trained. Both are fully registered ESA (Emotional Support Animals) & I take that very seriously as to their training & how exactly I want them to behave. 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 (about 14) & required a lot of extra love, care & attention also. So I am also compassionate about animals that need some extra loving. *I offer very basic kitty care. I cannot host cats in my home due to the prey drive of my husky, sometimes she’s ok with them, other times not. *I’ll do feedings for lizards as I have had a few bearded dragons myself as well so I’m knowledgeable here also. (But under no circumstances ask me to care for your snake, or your spider!) ***I offer potty breaks, walks, playtime, feed & 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 if you have a male I allow ONLY altered ones at this time.

“Maria was a life saver! I’m a dog mom who works 12 hour shifts and Maria was happy to host my puppy from early morning to late evening, letting her out to potty hourly.

“Was a great experience having Molly watch my fur baby Lexi. She went beyond what I had initially expected and made things easy and non stressful. Prompt messages, many pictures, and the reassurance my Lexi was taken care of put me at ease for my entire trip. I highly recommend Molly and already plan to have her check in on Lexi on my next trip. 5 stars well deserved.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was about 10 years old. They always seem to love me and I love them as well. I also have experience in training as well I’m available all the time as I’m unemployed at the moment. I have plenty of time to spend time and care for pets. I have a dog of my own and he was the sweetest. He gets along with other dogs well I can easily create a dog if needed. But I do have another dog in the home. He is very sweet and gets along with other animals very well.
About: *Hello! My name is Jessica and I cannot wait to pet sit for you! I have roughly 15 years of experience with pet/house sitting. With me, you'll be able to enjoy vacation, spend time with family, or whatever it may be with reassurance and a sigh of relief knowing that your little furry family member is in good hands. *I started off many years ago cat sitting for 2 cats and one of them needed a lot of care including medication twice a day. Over the years, that led to dog sitting 2 dogs. Pretty soon, that family referred me to another family, they did the same, and next thing I know I had about 4 different families that I was sitting for. I recently took some time off, but I am ready to start again! *For my job, I start at midnight until usually 8:30am. At some point during the day, I do online college courses (I'm done with schooling at the end of this year), so that means I will be able to spend basically the entire day with your pet! *Not only will booking with me help you, but it also benefits me because I thoroughly enjoy being around animals. Where I live, I am not allowed pets so anytime I am able to help people and it so happens to involve an animal, I am happy! *For pricing, I'm willing to talk about it. I will work with you especially if you have any additional services that may need done like cleaning up your house, etc. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you consider me when choosing a pet sitter. I work full time but start at midnight until 8:30am. That gives me the ability to be able to be at your house all day with your pet(s)! That means they won't be lonely while you're gone! In your house, I will give your dog all the comfort that it needs because I'm sure not having their owner around will be an adjustment at first. I am able to take your pet on as many walks as needed, follow whatever food schedule that is required, and have as much cuddle time as they let me! I would care for your pet with the mindset that this is a little family member and treat it with the kindness and respect all animals deserve and I never bring anyone else over to the client's house.
About: I have experience in working with animals in boarding and daycare and currently work as a veterinary assistant. I am trained in animal restraint, administering medications, and reading body language. I also have 4 family dogs and one of my own. Taking care of pets is my life. For work, I take care of animals at Cheat Lake Animal Hospital in General Practice as a Veterinary Assistant. I am also studying Veterinary Technology at Pennwest California. Because of my academics, during school, booking may be limited/may need to be changed around. I have a female rescue dog that loves other dogs and cats! If you want your dog to have a friend, I can bring her, or if not, that's okay too!
“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 taken care of both dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old! I have always had a love for being around animals. I am a college student, so currently my summer is mostly free! I have a good amount of availability at any time of the week. I have a fenced in yard so both of my dogs can run free, yet stay safe! Both of my cats spend their time indoors.
About: Hello! I am a pediatric nurse in Pittsburgh. My primary job allows me to be flexible! I can come for walks and visits during the week. I have been helping out with family dogs all my life! I work full time as nurse, however I work three twelve hour shifts a week so I have flexibility! I can be available during the weekdays while you are at work! I would love to drop in for visits/take your dogs for walks! I would happy to sit for a while to keep them company. Whether that’s playing or giving them cuddles.
About: I have been working in a dog kennel atmosphere since I was 17. I love all animals! And know this is my career path! I am also a dog groomer of 2 years! I take care of my own dogs everyday, and I do work in a dog kennel part time and it is part of my life almost everyday I was a dog Walker at my old dog kennel I used to work at I loved being able to take time and get to know every dog!
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all kinds from rescues, seniors, puppies, and everything in between. I also have experience caring for cats and some smaller animals and reptiles. Feel free to ask me about your other pets and I’ll let you know honestly if I am able to provide care. I'd be a great fit if you're a detail-oriented or slightly worried/anxious pet parent who wants their routine followed to the letter, frequent updates, and someone who treats your home and family members with love and respect. Getting a routine right matters a lot to me. I ask lots of questions upfront and pay close attention to the small stuff: think feeding times, meds, favorite routes, comfort items, quirks, fears, or behaviors, because those details are what make a dog feel secure. I'd rather over-communicate than guess. I lived with and cared for a reactive dog for 13 years, so I know firsthand what it takes to help an anxious dog feel safe, and how to prevent conflict in the first place. All my dogs have been rescues, and I have a soft spot for dogs who need extra patience to warm up. I'm not a certified trainer, but I've spent years learning dog training, body language, and enrichment, and every interaction is rooted in positive reinforcement. I will require a meet and greet with your pet in advance of the first booking so they can become familiar with me, and so I can become familiar with their routine and needs. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to be present for your dog, whether that's extra walks, playtime, or just being around for company, and I'm happy to talk through what kind of availability works best for your pet! I work from home which allows me the flexibility to prioritize pet care in a way I wouldn’t be able to with a traditional office. This gives me the ability to keep anxious dogs company, breaks for play time, medication, cuddles or walks when they are needed, not when they can be fit in. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or theirs, I work on building trust by moving at each pet’s pace and honoring their boundaries. Safety is always my top priority, I supervise pets closely, follow all instructions carefully, and adapt to their unique needs. I keep spaces clean, hazard-free, and ensure pets have fresh water, proper food, and quiet resting spots. For reactive or anxious pets, I use gentle, low stress handling & positive reinforcement or redirecting to help them feel calm and supported. Every care plan is tailored specifically to your pet’s needs after we discuss what works best for them.
About: I have taken care of two large breed dogs for over a year. I brought them into my home when they were puppies, and cared for them as they grew into adult dogs. For dog walking, I am able to walk one or two dogs at one time. When walking my own dogs, sometimes I would like to go for a little run just to make sure the pups get the exercise they need. For dog sitting, I like to let the pup(s) out for plenty of bathroom breaks. I will do everything I can to ensure that your pet is well-taken care of. I will be sure to provide a good amount of playtime for your pet to make sure he or she is having a good time! I'm currently working a shift evening schedule on Thursday-Saturday, so I have plenty of time during the traditional work week to look after your pets! I have a fenced yard and would love to spend time with your dog or cat! I would love to play games with your pet, take them on walks, and will be incredibly watchful over them to make sure they don't get into trouble.
About: Although I do not currently have pets of my own, I have always loved animals and have been the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues since moving back to Pittsburgh in 2019. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from quick check-ins to longer stays. Because I work remotely, my schedule is flexible and I can provide consistent care, attention, and updates while you are away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home, so I try to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s routine. Since I do not have pets of my own, I genuinely enjoy getting to care for other people’s pets like they are part of my extended family. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can provide pet care during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends depending on the booking. Because I can work from different locations, I’m able to spend quality time with pets during house sitting stays and provide consistent check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and updates. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable with their usual routine, space, food, toys, and schedule. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and any house rules. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I prioritize communication, safety, and calm, attentive care. I’ll also send updates so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of my friends miniature american bulldog named Yoshi for around a month at a time for the past year whenever she allows me to take him because he is so sweet and I have the time to train and walk him. I also have a bike path right behind my house so Yoshi enjoys his walks and seeing people that can give him scratches and belly rubs. I have 2 Guinea pigs that stay caged and don’t enjoy any fun activities with me so I enjoy the excitement of a dog I work from home, I have a skin care business making natural soaps so I am always home and available to go on routines walks. I’m also a mason and teaching myself carpentry and the goal is to build luxury dog homes so if you’re happy to have your dog be a model for my dog homes then it will be greatly appreciated and I will make a fun activity out of it for us. I also keep a large box of milk bones for good doggies. I prefer to spend as much time possible doing whatever your furry bestie enjoys that makes them temporarily not miss you but I do have a small back yard with an in ground leash and easy access to look out my window and watch if there’s any dogs who enjoy sitting outside for long periods of time, otherwise there’s lots of attention given and plenty of fun walks. Yoshi also loves car rides if that’s something your pet also enjoys and we’re going to start being regulars at the dog park since everyone loves him there and he loves everyone right back. So if your dog has never experienced a dog park yoshi will gladly assist in making him or her comfortable
About: Hi, I'm Sadie! I am a graduate of Pennwest California's Vet Tech Program and have plans to attend graduate school to become a veterinarian. I have worked at several different jobs where I gained pet care experience, such as doggy daycare/boarding facilities and pet stores. I currently work as an emergency vet nurse as Veg ER for Pets. I hold a current veterinary technician license and am RECOVER CPR certified in cats & dogs. I have been petsitting for friends and family for years and have watched large breed dogs, such as Cane Corsos, Akitas, and Great Danes. I own 3 Pitties, 1 Boston Terrier, and 3 cats. I have raised bottle-fed kittens/puppies. I can administer oral, ophthalmic, aural, topical, & injectable medications to a variety of animals. I can care for farm animals as well! Whether your pet is young, old, or has special needs, they will be well cared for while you're away. Rest assured, I will treat your fur babies as if they are my own! P.S. my rates are higher than I normally charge to cover the 20% deduction Rover takes from each booking. Tips are appreciated but not required :) I am currently taking an in-person class 2 days a week on Monday and Wednesday. If care is needed while I attend class, my mom (also a Rover sitter, Danyel Marinski) can provide care for your babies as well! I care for client's pets exactly as their instructions tell me too. My own dogs love to cuddle with me and watch tv in between playing with all of their toys! They're super high energy so they're taken on multiple daily walks.
About: When I was 13 years old I house sat for my first dog ever- Harley. Ever since Harley I have been dog sitting, and walking for over 10 years. When I bought my own home 5 years ago we began boarding dogs because as a pet owner I know how much better I feel when my animals are with someone I can trust. I promise to be that person for you! I am a Registered Nurse by trade, however, I do work from home so those pups of yours will be loved all day long. I am comfortable with puppies, energetic dogs, senior dogs, medication that needs given, dogs who have medical issues and much more. Please feel free to reach out! I would love to give your dog a home away from home ❤️ I work from home so I am home all day with them. If I do go out it is no more than 4 hours at a time and if I am boarding/pet sitting I would not leave for longer than 4 hours a day. I have 3 of my own dogs. 2 are less than 10lbs and the other one absolutely LOVES puppies/new energetic friends. We have a fenced in yard, a nice dog-friendly neighborhood to walk animals in, lots of couch space to snuggle up with every one, and lots and lots of play time!

“Brittany was great, she let me bring my dogs over before my scheduled date so the dogs would be a little more comfortable. She was great with the dogs and she responded quickly to any messages. I will be using her again in the future.”
“Michelle and her family were absolutely wonderful with Quincy! This was our first time leaving him for an extended period, and they made the entire experience so much easier with updates, pictures, and messages throughout the week. It was obvious how much they cared about him and it truly felt like he was part of their family while he was there. Seeing how much attention and love he was getting gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. We are so grateful for the care they gave him and would absolutely trust them with Quincy again in the future. We highly recommend Michelle and her family to anyone looking for a loving home away from home for their dog.”

They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”
