Pittsburgh FAQ

Can a vet clinic open in a rowhouse block?

Only if the parcel is in a commercial overlay or mixed-use district that lists veterinary services; otherwise a use variance from the Zoning Board is required.

Are overnight pet boarding kennels different?

Yes. Standalone boarding kennels face stricter setback and noise standards than veterinary hospitals and are typically limited to specific commercial districts.
