“Buster had a blast with the dogs in the yard. He was all doggie smiles when we picked him up! On top of that, I booked for the wrong day and Richard was nothing but nice about it, and completely accommodating. We’ll be back when we come through Pittsburgh again.”
2. Christy M.
“Christy was great! She was able to look after our lab mix Darcy while we went to the Mattress Factory. She was easy to coordinate with and did a great job of managing the dogs she was watching along with Darcy. Christy relieved all the stress of leaving our dog in a strange place in a new city. Highly recommend!”

About: I love dogs and cats, well, animals in general. I have had cats since I was 5 years old and transitioned to dog owner 20 years ago. I had to unexpectedly put my dog Gracie down and it was devastating. I'm not ready to have a dog if my own again.I do miss having a dog in the house and dog sitting allows me to care for dogs without the emotional attachment. I would like to help you out with your pet care needs while you are on vacation or just at work and don't have time. I am able to pet sit your dog in my home, and I am also available for overnight boarding. I am available at all hours for sitting/boarding. When your dog is in my care, he or she will be treated like they are my own dog. Plenty of belly rubs, butt scratches, and most importantly, love. I do have a large fenced yard for your furry friend to enjoy fresh air, and sunshine (well, sometime there is sun. It is Pittsburgh after all). My house is a small ranch so no steps to climb but plenty of room to roam around or nap. When outside in the yard, they will be supervised at all times. I never leave dogs unattended in my yard. Plus, I do love to watch them play. Dog sitting is my only income and your dog will never be without attention. They will be treated like the king or queen that they are. There will never be more than 2 dogs in my care at any time. I have a small house and I simply do not have the room. I do have a large, fenced, backyard. They will never be left alone outside. Also, I do not leave the house when dogs are here. I will only leave for emergencies.

“Luna had a fun day again with Kathleen. So nice to be able to trust someone to take care of my dog. Luna looks forward to going to Kathleen's place. I get lots of pics and even video updates. She comes home tired from playing in the yard.”
5. Michael H.
“My dog loves these two!”
6. Sushma S.
“Amazing! My dog loves sushmsa and her husband! Whenever I drop him off for daycare he gets so excited”
7. Annie B.
“Annie has been watching Lulu as daycare 2 days each week for the last several weeks. I can tell that Annie is doing an amazing job because Lulu is excited when she sees that she is going to Annie's, runs right in and makes herself at home. It is great knowing that Lulu is well cared for during those days.”
8. Brian B.
“These two were great on both occasions with my boy. They were able to meet him where he is at with his special needs (slow to trust) and provide patient introductions. We are booked for another day of daycare and will continue to book with them.”
9. Tia D.
“Our chihuahua had a great time at Tia’s! Tia sent us lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated and was super communicative. We felt at ease knowing our dog was with Tia. Highly recommend!!”
10. Jessica H.
“Jessica watched our golden Dolly and we couldn’t have been happier! Dolly wasn’t the same after she left. She was punctual and was able to be flexible around our schedule which was a massive help! Thank you for taking care of Dolly so well!”
11. Carly S.
“Carly was lovely and took very good care of our nervous Boston Terrier! She has a house with a backyard, which makes it easy for your dog to get exercised and toilet breaks and she was very easy to communicate with. She sent us photos throughout the day and she was patient and loving with our dog. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area!”
12. Marina P.
“Mon petit chien Junior a été très heureux de passer 10 jours avec elles . Nous l’avons retrouvé très heureux , nous avons reçu beaucoup de photo de promenade et de sieste . Je recommande vivement .”

About: I have owned 2 puppies, and both are currently with other family while I go forward with my education. However, I miss having puppies around to play with and cant wait to meet your fur baby! I work from home- so your pup will get a lot of love and attention all day! We will take walks, play, and meet other puppies around the neighborhood I live in an apartment complex with beautiful greenery so that your pup can have plenty of walking space. They will be walked a minimum of 3 times daily.
14. Cori F.
“Hello- I have been best friends with Cori since 2006. The one thing right away that you realize when you meet her is that she is such an animal lover. Especially dogs. She loves dogs so much! She has one of her own and She takes immaculate care of her furry friend. She really thinks of animals as extended family and not just a pet. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their furry friend in any capacity!”
15. Sara H.
“My dog, Franklin, had such a wonderful time staying with Sara! She took great care of him and sent us so many great photos of him playing. I know he had fun because he was exhausted when he got home. I would definitely look to book with Sara again in the future!”

About: Hi! Come hangout with Finn and I! Although Finn is my only current pet, I have owned two other dogs, who have sadly crossed the rainbow bridge. Loki was my pitbull who passed in her senior years. I had her since she was 2, and have experience with senior dogs, medication, etc. Maui was my special needs bully mix who had spina bifida. With that came special diets, diapers, and a whole lot of personality! I'm a working professional who works from home! If I'm going to have my pup Finn, why not welcome yours as well into my home. I've seen the chaos at doggy daycares, and my home can be their place of more peace. Although my yard is not fenced in, I do have a dog run. I live on a quiet, virtually dead end street in Mt Washington. My house is a small 1 bedroom, and the dogs have free reign. I have lots of dog beds, blankets, and toys. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, and can watch endless Hallmark movies if they so choose! 🙂Because Finn is 2 and only 13 lbs, my ONLY REQUIREMENT is that your dog must be dog friendly, no small prey drive, etc. Thank you!
17. Abena A.
“Abena has been watching my 4 month old dachshund puppy at her house during the weekdays the last month. She has been amazing with my dog. She’s very responsible, reliable, and has a true passion for dogs. Her dog Fig has been great with my puppy. My dog absolutely loves both Abena and Fig . I would 10/10 recommend her for any dog service!”
18. Dennis L.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and I love to walk and exercise them. I love to see their excitement and happiness when it’s time to walk and play. I am retired so I can pretty much meet any schedule that is needed. Morning, days and evenings are no problem for me to take care of your baby. I would always care for your pets in your home where your baby is most familiar and comfortable. I only walk dogs on a leash for their own safety.
19. Keegan C.
“Keegan was awesome! She was very communicative before we dropped our dog off, had a super easy hand off, and our dog came home happy and tired!”
20. Mick S.
“Mick watched my young puppy overnight, which was the first time I had been away from her. They sent plenty of pictures and were responsive and reassuring. They even brought their dog over who helped to socialize her. I would recommend this pet sitter to anyone in the area!”
