Dog Sitter

Saoirse McSharry

This is the best doggy daycare out there!! We started taking our Sheltie puppy Griffin here when he was about 8 months old and at the time he wasn’t always confident around other dogs, even occasionally hiding behind our legs at the dog park. So we weren’t sure how he would do, but Stacy made everything work smoothly! She has a process for all her new dogs, including always keeping a very close eye on the situation to make sure that everyone was safe. Because Griff’s adjustments to the new dogs and new surroundings were made slowly and carefully, he did great. Ever since he started going to Stacy’s (almost 2 years ago), Griffin has come so far out of his shell and has become WAY more confident around other dogs! Griffin always comes home SO happy (and tired!) from all the playtime both inside and outdoors (weather permitting of course). Stacy always sends GREAT photos, too (see attached), which never fail to make our day!

We couldn’t be more grateful that Griffin has a home away from home where he can have fun and we can be 100% confident that he is safe!

Stacy’s house is our Kelpie Josie’s second home, and she is always excited to meet her pack of friends there. The downstairs is perfect for dogs: little furniture, just a big leather sofa where they can lounge together. They also spend a lot of time romping in the yard. They are never caged. Sometimes I get a photo with my rather aloof pup nestling behind Stacy’s back! It’s the best place for dogs in the city.

Bow Wow Stay Now pet sitter is the best I have had in Pittsburgh. I travel frequently and have great peace of mind with my 2yr old golden retriever! My golden practically runs me over when she sees them and knows she’s going to camp or for an overnight. The owners are very attentive to my dogs needs and constantly are sending me updates and pictures. They work around my schedule with pick up and drop of and make sure my dog feels comfortable and at home on their home! Highly recommend.

We’ve been boarding our dog here for almost two years, mostly on extended overnight periods, and he LOVES it and loves Stacy! She was recommended by a friend who boards there as well. I can’t say enough good things about how excited my baby dog gets when we are approaching, so much so he might likely just choose to live there if he could. Stacey is great to communicate with, always sends photos and videos and updates, the price is great for having free roam and a lovely environment instead of an anxious kennel dog area. Best kept secret that I hope stays a secret! 

Angela Case

Great place, our dog is very excited to go, and comes home tired and happy.

My 1 year old chocolate lab, Henry, boards with BowWowStayNow when I travel. Stacey has always been extremely professional and is wonderful with Henry. She always sends pictures and updates on how he’s doing. It is so nice to not have to worry about him while I’m away. I highly recommend her services.

We have been taking our dog to Stacey for a couple of years now and our dog absolutely loves going for a stay there! We have done both long stays and day visits and have always been happy and satisfied with the care she receives. Our dog is very anxious and it is hard to leave her alone, but Stacey makes her feel like one of the family. We constantly receive pictures and videos of her playing and having a great time when she’s there! Stacey has always been accommodating with our schedule in regards to pick up and drop offs. I cannot say enough nice things about this business. We interviewed multiple people when we were looking for someone to care for our dog and are so happy we decided to go with Stacey!

We love Bow Wow Stay Now! Stacy sends daily pics when my dog Lulu is there and she is great with communication. Lulu has been shy with other dogs and taking her here has made her more confident to play with other dogs!

Jill Contraguerro

I highly recommend BowWowStayNow. Stacy is very accommodating regarding pick up and drop off times. Her place is clean and there is a nice/secure fenced in back yard. She is thorough in screening the dogs so all are current with shots. She is a very nice person and calm with the dogs. She treats my dog as if he is her own... one of the family!!!

Michelle Pencosky

For around 8 years we have been taking our dog Harley to Stacy for day care and also overnight boarding when we take trips. She and also my husband and I love it! My dog gets so excited when we tell her that she is going that she doesn't calm down! We are so fortunate to have found this place of business, that treats and cares for our dog like one of their own! Harley comes home a happy and THOROUGHLY exhausted pup! I can always count on Stacy for taking great care of Harley! Highly recommend!

Christie Diaz

Stacy is amazing. The dogs love her and are always so excited to go. A life saver on our last trip!

Sarah Zalin

We have been taking our dog Olive here for 4-5 years now! She absolutely loves going to visit Stacey and her doggy friends!!! They always have openings and are able to watch Olive any time we need it. Olive has medical issues and Stacey has always been great about giving Olive’s medicines when she is there! We love getting pictures of the fun she is having while we are away!

Amy Veltri

Stacey has been so important to us since we like to travel but hate leaving our dog behind. Bow Wow Stay Now is like a second home to our dog. She’s always excited to get there and I have peace of mind while we are away knowing she’s in a loving home.

Kelly Holt

I can’t say enough great things about Bow Wow Stay Now!! My dog Basil is more of a shy girl and she is so comfortable going for her day and overnight stays!! It’s also comforting knowing she is in great hands when she is there and we don’t have to worry!! I love getting the picture updates as well!! Every time we pull up to the house she is trying to jump out out of the car!!! Thanks again Bow Wow Stay Now!!

Lauren & Clayton Black

We have been using Bow Wow Stay Now for years. Stacy is very easy to work with and takes such great care of our dog. He is a German Shepherd and has bad anxiety but is always relaxed in the photos she sends! We would recommend to anyone!

Kaitlyn Cicacci

I’ve been taking my dog Augie here for multiple months now! We love Stacy! She is so accommodating and really tries to work with my schedule! Augie loves it and is so excited when he arrives and always comes home tired!! The best daycare around!

Jacques Troussard

Truly a home away from home. Clio is absolutely in love with Stacy and all her other guests. Clio lights up like fireworks when she realizes where I am taking her (she recognizes the street and house) Stacy is very communicative and flexible. I was a little reluctant at first not to be taking Clio to a national chain but now I don't think I'll ever consider anywhere else. I mean look at that smile!

Justine Szurley

We love taking our dog here. She always comes home tired and happy. Stacy is amazing, so flexible and incredibly caring with our puppy. We couldn’t ask for a better daycare service!!

Amy Hanford

Rebel loves BowWowStayNow. He loves playing with his friends and that he is never caged! Rebels humans love the daily videos and texts too!

Erica Garbarino

I can't say enough good things or how thankful I am for them! I started taking my dog here about two years ago and he absolutely loves it. He's 90lbs and full of energy and comes home tired. Stacy has always been so flexible and I'm a last minute person. She's so accommodating I can't thank her enough. Unfortunately I don't live in Pittsburgh anymore, but I still use her when we make trips! I never worry about a thing when he's there! I just hope I can find someone else like her until I move back to Pittsburgh some day :) thank you thank you!

Kerri Caldwell

My pup loves Stacy and going to day care at her house! She always keeps you updated with photos or videos during the day to see how much fun they are having. She has a great fenced in back yard for them to play in all day. She is super flexible with pick up/drop off times which is great with my work hours. I definitely would recommend her to anyone!

Cara Vogler

Soo happy we brought our 2 year old GSP to spend the day! She's well socialized, but is indifferent to other dogs most of the time. Whenever we take her to a daycare facility we have to drag her in, bc she really doesn't care to be in the mix of so many dogs. I noticed when I dropped her off, she was thrilled to leave me and go explore with Stacy 👍 By the afternoon she was up and running with the other pups, so it must have been the perfect introduction for her! They're really great about flexibility with timing, which was a HUGE plus compared to other strict doggie day camp pickup times, and when we ran into everyone at the regatta on Saturday, by chance, Greta was soo excited to see her new best friends again! Can't thank them enough, and Greta will probably be spending more time here again soon!

We have had our little one stay here many times over the last year. This service is perfect for us as we sometime only need her to be watch for an evening or for multiple days. Our dog is always well cared for including any special feeding requirements, which is not something we have found before. We often receive pictures of our pup as she is out enjoying the fenced in yard or hanging out on the couch We would recommend this service to anyone who needs dog sitting in the area.
