Dog Boarding in West End, Pittsburgh, PA

“Jimmy was at Richard's during the week of Christmas and seemed like he had a great time with him and his pack of dogs. Richard was kind, accommodating and sent pictures and videos regularly. His house has a huge yard for the pups to run around in. When I got back Jimmy was a happy, healthy and tired pup. Will surely recommend Richard and his pack to others looking for a safe and fun place to board their dogs.”

“Kathleen was great! She accommodated me at the last minute when I really needed her and put my mind at ease! She was very thorough and caring while getting to know Munchkin’s habits and interests. She has a very nice house with a fenced in yard where she could run around and play. She updated me regularly with photos and videos of her and took her on a long walk. Kathleen was a fantastic find.”

“Christine is the best! She was in constant communication with us in the lead up to and throughout Leo’s stay. She was flexible in working around our often changing pickup schedule and easily accommodated all of our pups needs. Will definitely book with Christine next time we need a dog sitter. Thanks again!”

“We are so happy with our dog's care by Michael and his wife while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Our dog is a nervous dog so they paid close attention to her and she settled in nicely. They sent us updates every day with a photo. We will definitely use them again!”

“Nelia and her precious family take dog sitting to a very high level! Always will be my first choice for future bookings! Hershey was treated like part of her family with lots of love, attention and exercise. Nelia sent frequent updates with great photos of him with her children, outside in the backyard, and on neighborhood walks. It was my longest time away from him. It was hard for me, but Nelia made it so much easier knowing how well he was being cared for. Nelia followed my instructions exactly and was very flexible with last minute changes with my work schedule and needing to drop him off a day earlier. Flexible with drop off time also. She invited me to stop over for a meet and greet before the first drop off after our first phone call. You learn a lot from meet and greets and I highly recommend them for everyone! Meet Nelia and her family and you will agree that she is a great choice!”

“Kevin was great with our dog King. He kept us updated on how he was doing and sent us pictures while we were away. He took King on many long walks. King had so much fun he didn't want to leave when I came to pick him up lol. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”

“This was my first time using Rover for an extended stay (2 weeks) and Amy was great! She sent pictures everyday and updates of mango playing with the other dogs. I appreciate that Amy does a meet and greet and requires vaccinations ahead of time. She was also quite responsive to my texts!”

“Our experience and care with Vidhi was wonderful from start to finish. We were leaving for vacation and our original sitter plans fell through less than a week before leaving. Thankfully, Vidhi was available and promptly responded to the request. She was so accommodating to our schedule and a few changes that popped up. Furthermore, she made sure to make Mira feel comfortable and at ease in her home. Frequent walks, play time, and lots of pictures made us feel comfortable while we were away! Will definitely keep Vidhi in mind for future sitter needs.”

Erika S.

“Our dog loves going to Emily & Patrick's! He started wagging his tail the moment we got there this last time. It makes vacation so relaxing to know he is so happy and well cared for at their place.”

Julia L.

“Denise and her husband did such a wonderful job with my dog, Parker. It was my first time using their services and they made me feel comfortable and worry free while I was away with frequent updates and photos. Highly recommend! Hope to be able to book with them again soon. Thank you :)”

“I was a scared puppy mom to leave my dog for the first time with someone I didn’t know. Christy was great, and Terrance had so much fun! She sent daily pictures and always responded to me very quickly. I’ll definitely be using her again for future trips!”

Mia L.

“I am always a little nervous when I leave my pup with someone new but AJ was great with Tater. He put me at ease knowing that my pup was being taken care of so well. He gave my puppy full range of his home and gave him the necessary play/exercise. I would recommend AJ.”

“Good experience for Bruno! Annie and Kashi hosted Bruno this past weekend. It was Bruno’s 1st boarding experience. Annie provided frequent updates, pictures and video’s of Bruno’s stay. Bruno and Kashi got along great and enjoyed playing and going on walks. I would recommend Annie to friends or family. Annie’s home is a good safe environment. The neighborhood is a great area for dog walks with lots of sidewalks and a nearby park. I vetted other dog sitters and Annie is great. She is good at responding and communicates clearly. I will be rebooking Annie for an upcoming trip. I am hoping this is the beginning of a great friendship for Bruno.”

About: I've been caring for dogs since childhood and have always had a dog as an adult. I currently have 2 dogs and the help of the whole family, especially our animal loving and training daughter (I lead all care and activity). Whether it be puppyhood, senior care, or medical issues including special diets and medication, I'm comfortable with a wide range of individualized instructions. I am centrally located in Mt. Washington with the benefits of a fenced-in back yard, a dog park and hiking trails within blocks. Additionally, I take walks every day and our guests are promised to have plenty of opportunities to play and receive attention. I love dogs! Pet care is a part of life each and every day. Times of day are insignificant as pet care happens very early, late at night, and all the time in between as needed. haIve a fenced in yard, comfy cushions (and couches although less preferred), and a crate available if that's requested. Dogs are walked daily with one walk somewhere from 1-5 miles and given endless opportunities to play (and learn). I can bathe dogs as well but shy away from grooming. My dogs are fed 2-3 times daily with treats when appropriate; no people food. I personalize all care based on needs and requests.

“Theresa saved the day for us! Our sitter had to cancel the week before our trip and Theresa was a perfect fit for our 13 year old senior girls. She was so incredibly patient with them and all of their quirks. She took care of eye drops, eye ointment, special diets, poor vision and hearing, cleaning eyes and faces, making pony tails and letting someone hide under the covers when it stormed. Theresa just went above and beyond as far as we are concerned and will be delighted to have the girls stay with her anytime!”
