Dog Sitting in Vandergrift

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have taken great care to ensure they are as happy as can be! I also occasionally dog sit for some senior dogs in my area! I am currently available every day of the week! I am more than happy to take your babies on walks, drop in, or dog sit any day including weekends! At this time I do not have any other pets in my home, I have a huge yard in a quiet neighborhood, if your fur baby needs extra care or attention I am more than happy to provide it!

About: 🐶 Having been surrounded by dogs my entire life, I’ve developed a deep understanding and appreciation for their care. Growing up with dogs and raising my own, Harlow 🐾, from a puppy, has given me firsthand experience in fostering their well-being. My passion for animals extends beyond personal experience—participation in clubs at the Pittsburgh Zoo 🦁 provided me with valuable insights into animal behavior and care, further enhancing my knowledge. Being from Pittsburgh, I am fluent with many resources for me to enjoy with pets. 🐕‍🦺 My pet care journey started in 2014 with my first job at a dog care store on Butler Street, where I honed my skills in providing attentive and compassionate care. During my internship with the Water Authority in Bradford, PA, I dedicated my lunch breaks to volunteering at the local SPCA 🏠, offering love and attention to animals in need. These experiences have shaped me into a dedicated, knowledgeable, and empathetic sitter. 💛 As an alumni M.S. engineering student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for my pets. I can easily fit dog walks, feeding, and playtime into my routine, ensuring each pet gets the attention it deserves. My love for animals and adaptable schedule make it easy to prioritize their well-being. I currently care for two dogs, my mother's and her boyfriend's, and have hands-on experience managing their daily needs. At home, I ensure a safe environment with our fenced-in yard and always prioritize the pets' well-being. For my clients' pets, I’m adaptable to their specific routines, whether that involves feeding, walks, playtime, or creating a comfortable space. Every pet in my care receives love and attention tailored to their unique needs.

“The absolute best! The definition of a dog lover. You don’t have to worry for a second about choosing Patrick. Super grateful I found him.”

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.

“We are so grateful we found Isabelle! She is reliable, responsible and most importantly takes really good care of my girls🐾🐾”

All dogs must be vaccinated and up to date on shots as we have 2 dogs. All dogs must be good with small children. Home sitting /walking in mostly available afternoon night time. Dogs during these 2 services do not need to be good with small children as my child will not be with me.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up with cats and because we were never allowed to have a dog, I would take care of dogs in the neighborhood. I would dog sit, walk them constantly, and would even bathe them. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian. However the thought of having to put an animal to sleep, kept me from fulfilling that lifelong dream. With two Golden Retrievers of my own Duke 7 years old and Enzo 7 months old who I adore more than life itself, and a cat my life is full. Looking forward to adding more fluffy friends to my life, and maybe even adding some excitement to my dogs life by adding new friends. I currently work full-time, but the majority of my days at work are spent working from home, so my schedule is flexible. The more dogs the merrier ! I will do whatever is necessary to provide the best care when someone else’s baby is in my care. I know what I would want for my dog, so I would treat each animal that is in my care the same way I would treat my own dog with lots of love, treats, walks and playtime!

“Rachel took great care of my cat while I was away.”

About: I was blessed as a child to have a life long pup. She was 15 years old so she grew up with me. Now I have 3 pups of my own that my children get the opportunity to grow up with! I have 2 doodles (one aussiedoodle, and the other is a Bernedoodle) the 3 red is a little Yorkie who I say is the “old grandpa” of the group! 🤣 I love every dog just as it would be my own. I have pup sat for several people but now thought I’d offer my services to others now as well. I look forward to meeting all of you as your pups or kitties! I work full time, but I can do weekends for drop ins, as well as evenings and early mornings. I’m am very open to talking about what your needs are as well. I like to see what you do with your pets daily, so that I can follow what you typically do during the day. I know animals do best when you can adhere to a schedule. 😊

About: What sets me apart is my personalized approach—treating every pet like my own, with dedicated attention, consistent communication, and a deep understanding of each animal’s unique needs and personality. I work from home all week and have a pretty short working schedule. I have lots of time at home to make sure each pet has the best care they need while the owner is out. Been doing it for so long and it's the best job ever! I have a fenced yard with lots of space, i live in a home in a mixed suburban neighborhood and there's lots of walking space around the block, dog park 5 min away and great space at home (no kids, just my wife)

About: Animals of all kinds have always been drawn to me. for as long as i can remember, i’ve wanted to take care of animals in some fashion. Rover is the perfect way to do that while i’m still in college! I work part time at Getgo on south pike rd, while also going to school full time for Psychology. I’ll be able to spend time with your fur baby after work, after school, and in my free time thursday - saturday. we have two golden retrievers who are the sweetest boys around. we have a front and back yard, neither are fenced in due to their size.

About: I'm a newly stay at home mom with plenty of time to care for as many dogs as possible. I have owned dogs my entire life and could say I have upwards of 30+ years of animal care experience. I have even worked with other animals including horses, chickens & ducks, bunnies, goats. I currently own a senior golden retriever mix and a young golden retriever. However, stubborn breeds are not a problem for me as I did own a husky for 11 yrs. I am fully comfortable administrating medication as I spent 3+ years working as a vet tech prior to starting a family. Please feel free to message with any questions, I will be happy to talk to you to ease any concerns. I recently became a stay at home mom with 2 children in elementary school and one toddler at home so I have plenty of time. I'd love to spend my additional time playing with the dogs or going for walks. I have a fully fenced in yard (6ft tall), that was reinforced to contain a husky. The outside gates are padlocked shut at all times so no worries about one being left open. No dog leaves my house unless in the fence or on a leash.

“I had a sitter cancel, and then couldn’t reach the her replacement, and George agreed to check in on my kitty cat on short notice. George proved to be very reliable in spite of coming from further away. I intend to hire him again if he’s still available to cat-sit.”

About: When I was a little girl my neighbor used to have me come to his house just to give his dogs a bath & play with them outside, they were outside dogs so I became a muddy mess every Wednesday ! I love all animals. I have 4 myself & my boyfriend has 4 as well so I’m always around animals! I currently own my own business but it’s by appointment only so I always have random availability. I do not work Mondays or Sundays at my business so I can always help I will come & love on the animals; make sure they have everything they need. Have a clean place to relax or play around. I want to be your dogs bestie?

About: I have had three younger siblings with also having three different sized dogs as I grew up at the same time as I would babysit them, and it was harder to watch my siblings than the dogs lol. I currently have a 6:30-3:30 am job in McKees Rocks and only 25 minutes from home in Oakmont! I love dogs and have had all sizes of dogs throughout my life! I’m looking for the dog companionship and something else to do on my nights and weekend off that are filled with loving pets! I would love to have my own dog but my building is a little strict with sizing on Pets, so this is the best I can do for now! I would care for them by their rules and perhaps a itemized schedule and or list of things they love to do, things to avoid and also make sure to be around the dog constantly and give numerous amounts of attention and care while away from their owners

“Lilly was great with my cat Ria. It was the first time Lilly cared for Ria and she did a wonderful job not only with the feeding, litter box detail, playtime, and photos, but her communication with me during her visits was awesome.”

“Beatriz was attentive and caring when she did drop-in visits for my cat. She want at or beyond expectations, and was extremely responsive in communication, looking out for everything. She did a great job and I am happy to rebook her in the future.”
