Michael & Maria were great hosts! Charlie stayed with them for 4 nights and this was his first time away from us. They made the transition very seamless for us! Days before dropping him off, they reached out prior to make sure we accommodated Charlie in any way we can. After dropping Charlie off, they gave us frequent pics multiple times during the day without even asking for them! They played with Charlie, took him for walks, and were extremely nice and communicative! I will definitely be booking again :)

Obe always has fun on his stays with Richard. A very big plus that obe doesn’t come back muddy and smelly! Very professional and quick responses.

Victoria was excellent!!! This was my first time using rover and leaving my dog with someone other than family and I was so nervous. Victoria was extremely kind and let me and my dog come over a couple days before so we could meet and see her house. She sent pictures and videos 2-3 times every day, gave my dog her medication, and made her feel really welcome. I already booked my next stay with Victoria! I feel so much better being able to leave my dog with someone she loved and who loved her! :)

Kathleen was amazing! I left my puppy with her for five days. During that time, Kathleen kept me up to date with him by sending photos and videos. My puppy cannot get on and off the couch yet because he is still small, so Kathleen bought him stairs to use! She totally went far beyond my expectations of taking care of my puppy. I will definitely use Kathleen again. She is fantastic, and I am grateful!

Sebastian was great! My dog had a great time and was taken care of very well. I was particularly nervous as I’d never used Rover before but Sebastian made the process much easier. Would definitely have my dog stay with him again!

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!

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!

Marina was an absolute delight! She took the challenges of sitting our 10 week old lab pup in stride, showing Dr. Fuzz the utmost love, care, and grace. She provided regular updates and was extremely responsive (which absolutely eased our concerns with boarding a pup so new and so young). I would absolutely recommend Marina if you are looking for the perfect home-away-from-home for your four-legged friend 😊

Sushma took good care of Nacho and sent me sporadic updates - too many updates are not necessary; she sent me just enough. Also, Sushma was really flexible when my return travel dates when I was uncertain if I could pick up Nacho at the prearranged time or not! I would 100% trust Nacho in Sushma's care again.

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

Geoff was an amazing sitter for Hank. Received daily updates with photos! Hank was so tired from all the walks and play time with Geoff he slept just about all day when I brought him home. Would definitely recommend Geoff and rebook in the future.

Emily was fantastic! I was able to have a carefree trip because she kept me up to date about Lily. So good to have someone you can trust with your pup.

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.
