Dog Sitting Wilmerding

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: One always wanted to have a dog of my own so taking care of other pets wood help me experience what I’ll need to know annd do when it’s the right time to have my own dog. I work early in the morning, after work I have nothing better to do besides take care of my family and my vehicles. I love to go to the park, travel, and go out to eat. I’m usually in the house in a safe and pleasant neighborhood, if I do go outside I’m either working, walking throughout the trail at our park or grabbing something to eat!. I rest assure everybody in my neighborhood doesn’t see me often only my neighbors. I honestly like it that way, it does protect us from what can possibly happen outside but I’m always protected and protective about everything!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats in my home as a child, I also had a few other kinds of animals (my mother had a dream of having a homestead and fulfilled it! Haha) . Anywho I love all animals but dogs and kitties hold a special place in my heart. I understand schedules can get busy and the guilt of not being able to take our pets on consistent outings is deep, and sometimes a vacation is needed. Don't worry though, because I am here for all of your dog walking and pet sitting needs! :)) I am currently working and taking a gap year to save for college! My schedule is flexible and I more so would like to see what works best for you and see if that works for me, play it by request! I understand dogs need to go out for bathroom breaks consistently . I am a very active person so for dogs that have more pent up energy longer walks or more play time is no problem! My dogs always had dietary restrictions so I am very understanding of dietary problems in our four legged friends. (I will never feed them processed "people" food for the sake of their stomachs and wellbeing and your home and wallets!) I think if cats and dogs could rate my pets I would get 5 stars across the board...just saying 🤷🏿‍♀️

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs & cats since could remember, around 10 years plus. I have pets of my own and they are my world. One dog named Luna and a black cat named bean! I own my own cleaning business and make my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility\! This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your fur babies and work around their routines and needs\. 🐾 I’m happy to accommodate different schedules and locations whenever possible! I live in a safe & quiet neighborhood, in a apartment in Edgewood area. I love all animals and would treat yours like my own.

About: I take pride in making sure animals not only have their basic needs met but also can get the socialization and fun time they need (whether we are actively playing or sitting quietly together). My experience includes: - Dog care (bathroom breaks, feeding, puppy care, playing together, sitting together) - Feline care (refilling wet or dry food, refilling water, brushing coats, playing, sitting and spending time together) - Poultry care (including measuring and distributing feed, refilling water, cleaning coops, giving baths, general checks for infected feet or other ailments) - Equine care (including measuring and distributing feed, refilling water, refilling troughs, bathing, brushing, and hair braiding) - Medication administration (pills and liquid syringe orally) - Taking lots of update pictures of your friend to send to you! I am a contract filmmaker that does gig work, so if my profile is up and active I am available for your pet sitting needs! I am available for hire most days of the week, including weekends, so that you can travel and do what you need knowing your friend is comfortable at home and in good hands. Safety is the number one priority for myself and your friend and will be taken as upmost importance at all times. I understand that each animal has their own unique personality and lifestyle-- I make sure to carefully observe their behaviors and tendencies when providing care you need for them in order to keep them happy and comfortable. Please feel free to ask me questions at any time.

About: I provide a dedicated, high-attention environment where your pet’s comfort and personality are my top priorities. I’ve grown up around dogs since I was young, which has given me a deep, natural understanding of their behavior and how to keep them feeling safe and settled. Because I work from home full-time, your dog will have constant companionship and the flexibility for unlimited potty breaks whenever they need them. Your pet will enjoy a rock-solid routine with three structured walks a day—they are welcome to join my friendly dog for some neighborhood socialization, or I can walk them individually upon request to give them my undivided attention. I am happy to accommodate any specific feeding, medical, or behavioral needs with total care, ensuring your best friend receives the focused, reliable stay they deserve. Since I work from home, my schedule is built around providing active, attentive care. Your dog will enjoy a consistent routine of three daily walks, with the option to join my own dog for socialization or go individually for 1-on-1 time. Because I’m home all day, I have plenty of time for indoor play, "anytime" potty breaks, and can even accommodate trail adventures or dog park trips for pups with extra energy. Having grown up with dogs since I was young, I’m happy to accommodate any specific needs to ensure your pet feels safe and energized while you're away. Whether I am hosting in my home or visiting yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. My house is kept meticulously clean, and I am always vigilant about spotting potential hazards to ensure the environment is fully pet-proofed and secure. If your dog stays with me, they’ll have the company of my very friendly Corgi, Jack. He is incredibly social and has a natural way of helping even the most timid or shy dogs feel comfortable and included. I treat every home with a high level of respect and care, ensuring your pet feels safe and your space stays spotless while you are away.

“Chris did a great job watching Rosy. He came for a revisit to meet her. He was interested as I gave directions- and took the time to get to know her. He made sure he understood her schedule and habits. He did not send a picture at each visit- but we were fine with that- if it’s important to you - you might need to ask for it. He was communicative and always responded to our texts. I would definitely have him back.”

About: I have worked with all animals, from dogs and cats, to rats, turtles, hamsters, rabbits and fish! I have worked at a Humane Society, and love volunteering my time to work with animals. I have experience administering medication, as well as working with animals that have a bit of an attitude. I enjoy training dogs, and sitting on the coach and watching a movie together! I am able to commit most of my time to petsitting! I do not board in my home, but I have a reliable car that allows me to travel and spend the night in your home. That means less stress on your furry companions! While I do not provide care in my home, I prefer to meet families and their animals in advance so that we are able to discuss the little things about your animals. I love getting to know their quirks, and the best way to do that is talking to owners. I enjoy long walks with the dogs, and snuggling with cats and other animals!

“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.”

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 have been around dogs and other animals since I was an infant. My family has consistently taken care of dogs for over 30 years. I especially love training and taking dogs on enrichment activities. Pet care is a daily responsibility that requires singular attention on the animal with no multitasking. Animals need more than just food and water; they require attention and enrichment daily. Animal safety means thinking ahead and preparing. Each animal has specific needs that will allow them to thrive when met. It is important that an animal have its own space such as a crate or perch, and that they are supervised when on walks or in a new environment.

“She did an amazing job and my kitties had a great time with her! She took great photos and communicated well-would highly recommend!”

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.

“Megan came to my rescue and was available over the holiday. She took great care of my dog and kept me informed so I could enjoy time with my family. She is reliable and loved up on my dog. I will be using her in the future!”

“Mariah was amazing and gave us updates and pictures of the dogs while we were away! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who cares deeply about your dogs!”

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life. I am very good with animals! I am happy to feed and play with your pet! I also have experience caring for disabled and aging pets and am able to administer any needed medication! I currently work on the week days only. So my weekends are completely free to play and take care of your pet! I will be sure to give them lots of love and attention! I will treat your pet like my own and ensure their happiness and safety! I also follow any rules, expectations, or instructions you have given me!

About: Almost 2 years of pet food store retail experience with training courses on pet care, basic pet training and deep knowledge of pet nutrition. Taken care of both my dogs since puppies (now 9, and 1 years old). I volunteer with several rescues and have helped set up fundraising/exposure events to help rescue pets find a home! I’m a full time student at Duquesne University pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I’m relatively flexible and just work around my class schedule. I have plenty of experience with my own two dogs, both being rescues, and plenty more experience with customer pets that would come into the store. I also volunteer with rescues shelters walking, bathing, and taking them to the park.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for both cats and dogs—though my own cats would probably like me to emphasize cats first 🐾 I’ve spent time volunteering with the Humane Society of Somerset County, where I walked and cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and with Kitty Queen Cat Rescue here in Pittsburgh. These experiences gave me hands-on confidence with animals who need patience, attentiveness, and a calm presence. At home, I’ve had cats my entire adult life—they truly are my babies—and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work from home, which means more flexibility, more availability, and more attention for your pets—whether that’s a midday walk, a check-in, or just extra time spent keeping them company. I offer: 🐶 Dog walking (reliable, attentive, and tailored to your dog’s pace and personality) 🐾 Drop-in visits for cats and dogs (feeding, litter/yard care, playtime, and meds if needed) 🐱 In-home cat sitting (a calm, cozy environment—perfect for cats who prefer a quieter stay) I’m also comfortable administering oral and topical medications. Availability-wise, I offer flexible evening and weekend scheduling to fit your needs. I’m especially great with: Cats (shy, opinionated, or “only likes their person” types included) Dogs who benefit from a patient, calm walker Pet parents who want thoughtful updates and peace of mind You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication while you’re away—I know how much that matters. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family (and probably talk to them like tiny roommates), I’d love to help 💛 I have a full time, work from home job as a Customer Experience manager M-F, so my availability is evenings and weekends as I'm able. I can also board kitties anytime that can hang out with me while I work! I am a nature lover who loves walks in the park and in the woods. When caring for pets in my home, I have a separate bedroom where I would be able to keep them separate from my two cats, if need be.
