Dog Sitting Wilmerding

About: Hi! My name is Yanny and I am a reliable and attentive pet caregiver with strong observation and communication skills (a psychology degree helps with that!). Experienced following detailed instructions, maintaining schedules, and recognizing behavioral cues in our furry friends. I love walking animals and helping them maintain their health when owners are gone. My biggest priority is to make the animals feel safe and loved while owners are away! Im currently working a full time job at a school near the Pittsburgh area, so I afternoons, nights, and weekends to connect with animals and owners. I can easily drive to a clients house, and I’m very reliable and flexible when it comes to scheduling! If needed, I can always drive the pets to parks and open spaces to have a fun time as well. (My work will depend on the wants and needs of the clients!)

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I love spending time with them in my free time! My daughter loves cats and dogs! Currently working 745am-345pm Monday-Friday. Can care for your pet before and after work! I also get a long lunch break would be able to check on them during then too! I have a large unfenced yard but willing to take dog to a fenced yard if needed! My daughter and I love spending time with animals.

About: Hello! My name is Laura and I live in Trafford, PA with my fiancé, Nathan, and our old golden retriever puppy, Meadow :). I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets — not just dogs and cats, but also hamsters, chinchillas, guinea pigs and have even fostered a groundhog. I’ve grown up with pets all my life and couldn’t imagine a life without a furry family member. I’m comfortable with any and all pets including puppies who need structure, potty breaks, and tons of attention, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, extra gentleness, and close attention to their routines. I always keep owners updated so they feel connected and reassured:) I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and calm, even with shy, anxious, or energetic pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels safe and loved! I am a registered dental hygienist and work locally in Monroeville, PA. I work Monday–Thursday from 7am–4pm, but am available for evening walks and drop-ins. I’m fully available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for anything you need, including weekend boarding or day-care! I also have an entire week off around Christmas time, so I’ll be home and fully available for holiday bookings, extended stays, or extra visits during that time :). Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so I build my free time around making sure your pets get the attention, love, and routine they need. We live on a 2 acre wooded lot and I have a fully fenced-in large backyard for secure outdoor time. My two-story home offers lots of space for relaxing, playing, or finding a quiet spot. I’m experienced with crate training and can follow any crate or feeding routines your pet is used to. I have my own 10 month old golden retriever puppy who is well trained, potty trained, and crate trained. She is extremely friendly and will be a great playtime companion!:)

“Natalie took the best care of Daisy. She was easy to communicate with and very reliable. She was able to accommodate a last minute change & sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the week. She also offered and cleaned up all the dog fur so we didn’t have to come home to a mess. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter to care for our pup while we were on vacation.”

“Excellent! My two boys loved her. She was on top of all their needs, she sent us lots of pictures, and updated us on walks and moods. We felt our boys were in very good hands. I would have her Rover for us again hands down!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over 6 years and have cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. From playful puppies to mellow seniors, I adapt to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who loves long walks or a cuddly couch companion, I’m experienced in creating a safe, loving environment that helps them feel right at home. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I work full-time during the week, but I’m completely free on weekends—perfect for giving your pet my full attention! Whether it’s boarding, drop-ins, or long walks, I make pet care my priority on weekends. I also have flexibility in the evenings during the week for check-ins or walks, depending on your needs. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’m always happy to spend my free time with furry friends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority—whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I follow any instructions you leave carefully and stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel secure and relaxed. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and free of anything that could pose a risk (like small objects, harmful foods, or open doors). I always keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime and provide regular updates so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be loved and well cared for, just like one of my own.

“Kendyll worked really hard to win over our skiddish dog. He is very afraid of new people, and she was patient with him and worked with him to get him to trust her. Really appreciated having her with him!”

“Carly has been so wonderful and reliable for our dog, Phoebe! She has provided weekly drop ins for a couple of months and one long overnight stay so far, which she extended a night on short notice for us. She provides us with consistent updates and communication and Phoebe is always a happy girl after each of her visits. We highly recommend Carly, she’s been one of our best Petsitters to date.”

Emily P.

“Brittany did an excellent job checking in on my cat. I got updates from each visit and came home to a happy cat and clean apartment! Would definitely rebook Brittany in the future!”

About: I’ve been a Veterinary Technician for the past 3 years, however I have been taking care of animals all my life. I have years of experience from my own dogs and cats as well as other families’. From puppies/kittens to the senior babies I can help out wherever you need it :) I am canine/feline CPR trained I work full time at a veterinary clinic, so I have time in the afternoons/evenings for walks or drop ins! Boarding availability on weekends :) I have two friendly cats who free roam my house. I feel very strongly that pets are family and should be treated as so. With that being said I take many precautions to keep them safe in your home as well as my home.

About: I have had 3 dogs of my own! An Australian Cattle Dog Mix, a Basenji mix, and a working line large breed German Shepherd, which I helped train in obedience to be an SD. My dogs always had scheduled potty breaks and playtime. My job is to make sure your pet has the best time while keeping boundaries/respecting their space, ensuring their safety, and following your expectations of care. I am comfortable with any amount of shedding and the size of your pet. I can especially ease my interaction with pets that are scared and anxious, as through training my own dog, I am better at picking up the dog’s body language and only engage in physical contact if the pet’s body language consents. If you have an aggressive pet, please notify me beforehand. I do not guarantee I will agree to care for them, but I am interested in scheduling a first meeting if possible. Note: I do not drink/smoke, so your loved one will never be affected by second-hand smoke or inappropriate behavior. I am very available on the weekends and by the afternoon on weekdays. If you need morning care, please reach out and I will see if I can accommodate! My pets are routinely groomed and freshened. Everytime they come inside after heavy play, I clean their body from head to toe with pet friendly wipes. I use a brush that helps with shedding and smoothing out hair. Their teeth gets brushed every 2 weeks. I check their ears for dirt routinely and the inside of their paws for any injuries or cracking from dryness.

About: I have exposer to multiple types of pets. Dogs large and small I have been relied on to take care of family and friends fur babies since I was 13 I currently work a 4x10 shift so I have flexible Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. I also do not start until 9 so I can always do a little before work and after 7 pm I will treat your dog as my own when under my care. Whatever needs you have for your pets as you are away I can take care of!

“We never left our dogs with anyone except family and Emma went above and beyond. She’s very sweet and caring and we will definitely use her services again!”

About: hands on experience working in animal-care facilities and my understanding of the importance of safety, patience, and individualized care. I have experience administering medications, monitoring behavior, supervising group play, handling dogs of different sizes, and maintaining clean environments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I’m committed to following their routines and providing reliable, loving care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their parents peace of mind. I am currently part time and devoting my time to do what I love by proving excellent care and love to those Pet parents in need of a little extra help. I provide attentive, loving care while following each pet’s individual routine and their owner’s instructions. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment by providing fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, medication as directed, and a clean, safe space. I closely monitor their behavior, respect their boundaries, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection. My priority is keeping every pet happy, healthy, and safe while giving their owners peace of mind.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life so I definitely know the ins and outs to pet sitting/walking! I’m currently a fur mom to my own puppy of 8 months. His name is bandit and he’s my absolute world! 🥹 he keeps me company while I work from home and we always go on daily walks. I really enjoy that time we have together. I’d love to bring that energy elsewhere also and be able to walk other puppies who need it! 🥰 I work from home and have a pretty open/available schedule almost everyday after 1. Weekends I’m completely free and should be available if needed! 😊 I have my puppy on a schedule with eating, potty time, active time, and bed time. I know all of his needs and can adapt fast to others needs as well! I have a big yard with a long leash if needed.

“Sydney took great care of our three cats while we were away for two weeks. I was really nervous leaving them behind but they were well taken care of and got comfortable with Sydney pretty quickly. Sydney sent lots of pictures and did a great job keeping us updated. I think the kitty gang would love to have her back anytime!”

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’ve always been a dog lover and both me and brother rescued Labrador early prior to the covid year. We love him so much and since I moved countries he now lives with my parents in India. I wear a paw on my necklace which is a memory that he is not far away and will always take care of my parents behind me. Zorro now sits on the dinner table and enjoys all family meals. As someone with medical training and a responsible active lifestyle, I am calm under pressure, highly dependable and attentive to routines, medications, special care needs and feeding schedule. Whether your pet is playful or prefer quiet companionship I’m happy to adapt to their personality and needs. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family 🐾 I relocated to Pittsburgh from Boston for my medical training this year. I thrive on a schedule and can work if we plan the days well in advance together. I will be open to taking care of your pet as needed and happy to coordinate a schedule for walks/boarding at my house with you. My partner and I are trustworthy, active, and organized, and we genuinely care about making your dog feel safe and loved while you're away from home. 🐾 I live in an apartment with my spouse who has grown up all around dogs as pets since he was a kid so we both love dogs but don’t have one of our own currently. Your pet is allowed on our sofa and enjoy the area of a one bedroom. If I am at your home, I will aim to make your pet feel as comfortable and stress free as possible while the owner is way by keeping a normal routine in their own home environment. I will carefully follow your instructions and communication is very important to me, so I can provide regular updates , photos and check-in to help the owner feel reassured. As someone with a medical background I am very attentive to details and safety.
