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!

Victoria was wonderful! She responded quickly to my booking request. She was flexible about the dates I needed, and accommodating when my plans changed. Her own dogs are well behaved and friendly. She has a wonderful dog park close to her house. She took great care of my pup and sent me photo and video updates each day. Highly recommended!

Duke has been to “Ms. Kathy’s” (as we call her) a half a dozen or so times. When we ask if he wants to go, he tilts his head and gets so excited! We always get a bunch of pictures that my kids enjoy seeing. I like that there is often a playmate or 2 for our pup. As always, Duke will be returning soon! ⭐️

Richard was great. Very communicative and sent pictures every day. My dog was very happy - albeit exhausted from all the playing :) - when Richard dropped him off to us. Will definitely ask him to sit again in the future.

Adam gave us updates and sent great photos of our dog. It sounded like she also got to have a fun vacation, cruising around Adam's neighborhood and checking out the cool spots, while we were out of town! It certainly gave us peace of mind that our dog was enjoying herself and being well taken care of. Thanks, Adam!

Karen was AMAZING! This was my first time using this app or leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know and she made me feel sooo comfortable! She was soo understanding she even agreed to meet my dog before I decided to go through with leaving Sadie with her. She sent me daily pics of her walks and them just hanging out which really made me feel at ease leaving Sadie with her! Overall I would HIGHLY recommend Karen to my friends family or anyone else!

Shannon has fostered and loves dogs, which gives me great confidence when she walks our dog. She is punctual and attentive to every dog she is responsible for. She has collected toys and blankets for dogs in pounds. I feel completely confident with our dog in Shannon's care.

Sara did an incredible job with Albert! She shared with me many photos (an entire Google album) during his stay. From the pictures, I could easily tell Albert was having the time of his life (e.g., running around, going on walks, playing with other dogs). And when I picked him up, his gleefulness was still shining through. She was also very communicative with me, proactively asking about his needs before the study and sharing text-based updates during the stay. I would definitely book with Sara again, and would also recommend her to anyone. Thanks Sara, for going above and beyond!

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.
