“Kind, quality care for my dog, Max. Mike and his partner were extremely friendly and kept in touch with me while Max stayed with them. They sent pictures of him looking happy and healthy during his stay.”
2. Kathleen K.
“Kathleen was SO great! The photos and videos she sent helped us rest assured that our baby boy was being taken care of. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your dog while you’re away, I’d HIGHLY recommend Kathleen! We will absolutely be utilizing her services again!”
3. Richard T.
“Richard is the best dog sitter we have ever used! He sends pictures every single day and he treats our dog Boo like family. Boo gets plenty of exercise and stimulation with the other dogs but also gets plenty of human attention and cuddles. It's so much easier to relax on vacation knowing that our baby is being well cared for. Will definitely continue to book with Richard anytime we leave town!”
4. Christine B.
“Christine was great. Provided constant feedback and pictures on how our pup was doing. Stayed in touch our whole trip to give peace of mind. Would definitely rebook again. Loved our pup like it was one of her own.”
5. Adam C.

10. Tia D.
“Tia was an absolute perfect petsitter for my dog Finley! She was flexible with drop off/pick up, sent updates including photos and videos, and made sure that my boy was getting lots of attention and playtime in the backyard. Tia’s dog Tang was a fantastic companion and playmate so Finley was spoiled having a canine friend around. Couldn’t have asked for more!”
11. Sebastian O.
“Sebastian was absolutely perfect with my dog Chip. Chip is a old (12yo) chihuahua so he needs extra love and care and Sebastian and his wife did just that! He sent pictures every day and made everything easy for me. It was as if my dog was on vacation too! Highly recommend and will use Sebastian again 😊”

13. Armari L.
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.

16. Sara H.
“Sara did an amazing job watching my small dog for 3 days and 3 nights. I was so excited to receive a full Google album of photos! She took him on several walks with her other dog and they spent lots of time lounging. She definitely loves dogs and her personality made my boy comfortable even though he is nervous in new situations.”
17. Brian B.
“I was very satisfied with the care Brian and Erin gave my pup. This was my 5 yr old dogs first time staying away from home overnight She was anxious - pacing & panting for the first few hours but eventually settled in after the attention and patience Brian and Erin showed her. This couple clearly likes dogs and are very warm & welcoming. They have a great deck and fenced in back yard as well as a full view front storm door that my dog loved to look out, just like at home. I appreciated their updates and photos. I will definitely use them again.”
18. Sushma S.
“Sushma, Took in Milo at the very last minute. I was so grateful of this so Milo can be comfortable. If I lived in town I would definitely have her again. Thank you”
19. Hsing-jung w.
“Epsilon very much enjoyed his stay with Hsing-jung. Her apartment has a big balcony door that was perfect for bird watching, and he enjoyed hiding under the bed. She also fed him lots of treats, and she updated us with many Instagram-worthy photos.”
20. Carly S.
“Carly was very nice and Princess liked her. She actually slept in the living room because Princess was afraid of the steps. Those are the things that are genuinely appreciated”

Why book Rover dog boarding in Pittsburgh?
Pittsburgh pet parents want to make sure their dogs are well taken care of when they're away, and that's where Rover comes in. Dog sitters in Pittsburgh will treat your pups like part of their family, and offer them all the comforts of home, unlike a kennel. If you're looking for dog boarding in Pittsburgh, try a Rover sitter who'll care your pup in their own home, offering plenty of one-on-one attention.
Why do dog owners love Pittsburgh?
Residents of The 'Burgh are treated daily to a city full of history, entertaining professional sports leagues, and cultural institutions. Home to educational institutions like Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh - plus cultural attractions including the Andy Warhol Museum - it's often ranked one of the country's most livable cities. So it's easy to see why dog owners love living in Pittsburgh. Plus, there are tons of dog-friendly green spaces and friendly Rover dog sitters and walkers throughout the city.
Which parks in Pittsburgh are good for dog walks?
Referred to as OLEAs, Pittsburgh has many Off-Leash Exercise Areas your dog to enjoy. Take Frick Park dog park on Squirrel Hill - it's a massive 644 acres for you and your dog to explore. There are separate fenced areas for running, lots of trails, and a swimming hole for dogs near Lower Tranquil Trail. Though not quite as large, Riverview Dog Park at Perry North is still a huge park to visit at 259 acres total, with two acres fenced off just for off-leash fun near the Allegheny Observatory. At Bernard Dog Run in Lawrenceville, you'll find a bustling half-acre park under the 40th Street Bridge. There are separate play areas for large and small dogs to keep pups safe and having fun with other dogs their own size. Dogs need to stay on leash at Point State Park, but that shouldn't stop you from spending a day walking its three main hiking trails. It's right downtown in the Golden Triangle, so you can't miss it!
What Pittsburgh neighborhoods are good for dog owners?
Pittsburgh has over 90 vibrant and unique neighborhoods, so deciding where to visit or even settle down can be a tough decision. From S&D Polish Deli to the Pennsylvania Macaroni Co., there are tons of interesting and eclectic shops and grocers in the Strip District, just east of downtown Pittsburgh. If you're looking for something a little more upscale, take your shopping over to the Shadyside area. You can get a dose of culture and intellectual discussion in Oakland, where you'll find the 53-story gothic building that houses the University of Pittsburgh's Cathedral of Learning. If you need a place to stay, check out the edgy, metroplication chic of the Ace Hotel or Indigo Hotel in the East Liberty neighborhood. Looking for a bite to eat? Head over to Pittsburgh's "Little Italy," Bloomfield. Take a bridge from downtown to discover North Shore and North Side, home to Heinz Field and PNC Park, and be sure to get a glimpse of the larger-than-life Mister Rogers' statue nearby. You can also take a nice stroll down the tree-lined streets of the charming Sewickley neighborhood, or catch an amazing view in Mt. Washington.
