About: My kiddo and I will happily provide lots of playtime, including walks and socializing, for your loved one. We both have experience with multiple breeds and are always looking to learn about the preferences and habits of those that are new to us. My kid loves to jog, dance, and tumble with the pups, while I'm more of the snuggling type. We both love long walks and visiting with friends at the dog park. If your sweetie prefers to play without children, I am available solo as well. Whatever your needs, my little family and I are happy to tailor our care to you and yours. You can rest easy knowing we will share our love and tons of fun with your family's best friend!

“Olivia was great! Took super good care of my goofball dog and was very reliable. I’ll be reaching out to her for all my future doggy needs :)”

“Our girls love their walk with Aracely. She is our go to dog walker!”

About: I've grown up with dogs and have always treated any cat or dog as my own. I am used to bathing, walking, running, hanging out with the dog. Playing catch after a long day always is my favorite. I have taken care of dogs with specific food needs easily and understand the importance. Taken care of neighbors, my boss, and family members dogs since I was 15. About two years ago I was introduced and started to house sit and care for cats. It’s been educating and brought happiness/love into my life learning how to care for cats. It would be great to have a routine added in my daily lifestyle involving dog&cat sitting/walking. I have a very quiet lifestyle and apartment. I volunteer for SavingOneLife with cats. I love to play, snuggle, give scratches or even give space if that’s all they need for your dog or cat. I have a flexible work schedule now where I am available 7 days a week and will be working from home. Live right by a grassy patch. Lovely neighborhood to walk in. I can easily crate dog/cat if needed. Plenty of space in my apartment. Live on the second floor. Can carry dog/cat if needed. I have 8+ years experienced crate trained and free-range trained. If not crate trained, very alert to keep eye out especially taking dog out immediately when needed. Puppies I understand once out of sight something is going on. I’m energetic and aware to keep a consistent watch on puppies. I understand/first hand experience with puppies bladder, the size of a pea, and waking up during the night for the bathroom breaks to maintain outdoor bathroom training. I always will make sure the dog/cat is comfortable before leaving or in any time of day. Understanding the behaviors of the dog and cat I have cared for is very important to me, and my own behavior(excitement,slow approach,patience) when around them to make sure they feel at ease. This is my immediate goal when first introduced.

“Aidaly has been my lifesaver! My nephew moved back to Texas with very short notice and thankfully she was available starting the Sunday before Memorial Day. It took Ziggy 1 day to warm up to her and now he greets her at the door. I appreciate the care and attention she gives my little guy.”

“Janet was great with our pups and they loved their walks with her. She also kept us posted on how they were doing. We will definitely be repeat customers!”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was born! We have never had less than 5 pets in the house. I grew up dog and cat sitting and am comfortable dealing with challenging pets. I have been a walker on here for over a year now and love meeting your sweet pets. I am currently attending naturopathic medical school in Tempe. I have early morning availability as well as sporadically through the afternoons and evenings. I should be able to work around just about any schedule. I am also a slow but passionate runner and am happy to include runs as well :) I have a lot of experience dealing with difficult pets. I can handle big and loud dogs, crazy chihuahuas, temperamental cats, and more. I grew up pet sitting and dog walking and am able to appreciate each and every pet for who they are.

About: I am an Printmaking student at ASU, and I have loved animals since I was a kid. I was formerly a Girl Scout and have volunteered at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, and Arizona Humane Society, I've cared for animals since I was eight, even with my girl scout troop. I help take care of my dog and cat. I am currently a full-time student and pet sit part-time. I go to class Mon, and Wed. However, I have Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons open and am willing to work weekends and holidays. I have a cat. My cat is amiable. My cat is unsure of other animals at my house so I will offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking.

“Always a pleasure with Jesus, he takes great pictures and is always very detailed about how my pup's walk went. And he responds quickly when I reach out.😁”

“Daniel was prompt and our dog took to him right away. He understood our dogs needs and was confident he could manage without hesitation. You can see he genuinely cares for animals and we look forward to working with him again!”

Teresa H.

“Kayla is great! Conscientious about the dogs, reliable and a caring person overall. Trusted her with our dogs without hesitation. Unfortunately she moved out of our area but if she didn't we would be regular clients.”

About: I would love to be that pal for your pooch! =) My husband and I live in Ahwatukee with our two biological kids and our adopted kid (a cockapoo), Finley. We like to go for walks around the neighborhood and play fetch in the yard. Your doggie would be a welcome addition to our routine. I also work from home so I am able to love on your little companion without them having to spend too much time alone. As long as your dog likes other dogs we will get along great! Also, since I am home all day I am happy to help with house training your dog. About this sitter: I also enjoy running, reading,baking desserts and going on adventures with my other critter (husband), although not necessarily in that order. Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs all my life. When I was 9 we adopted a poodle named Damie from an elderly lady who lived near my grandma. Damie was with me from 4th grade all the way through college and was a great dog. Meet my pets Our dog Finley is our pride and joy. He loves to learn new tricks and snuggle. I have sneaking suspicion that he is running for most popular dog in the neighborhood. He loves meeting new dogs and playing chase. On a number of occasions we have had people tell us that their dog who doesn't generally like other dogs seems to like Finley. About my yard I have a big, fenced yard with real grass! I work from home and am around pretty much always. If I do run errands it’s for an hour and the. I’m back to snuggles I have a fenced yard and two friendly boys who love to play fetch, tug or just generally run around the yard. I am happy to crate or give meds as needed

“Kelly was fantastic! We booked her for two dog walks this week and she went above and beyond in terms of walking, communication, and love given to our dog! We highly recommend Kelly and look forward to having her walk our dog again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a lifelong love for dogs and hands-on experience from a very young age. Growing up, my family always had three dogs at a time, and we considered them true members of the family. I was actively involved in training, feeding, and caring for them throughout my childhood and teenage years. While I don’t currently have dogs of my own due to my roommate’s allergies, I still jump at every chance to care for friends' and relatives’ dogs, especially when they’re away for weekends or on vacation. I understand the deep bond people have with their pets, and I treat every dog I care for with the same love, attention, and respect I’d give my own. I am a full-time online student, so my flexible schedule allows me to easily provide reliable, attentive care for pets throughout the week and weekend. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow any instructions or routines provided. I treat both the home and pet with care, ensuring a calm, comfortable, and safe environment. I make sure to keep things tidy and adhere closely to feeding, walking, and playtime schedules as outlined by the owner.

About: I’ve had the pleasure of living with, and caring for, my own doggos and others, throughout my entire life. The greatest wisdom I’ve learned from them is that they are here to teach us unconditional love, laughter, and loyalty during their short lives. I have also dog-sat for friends and family, in addition to taking care of their property and homes for many years. I’ve owned three homes in my life, on acreages, so I’m completely aware of the responsibilities involved. My other pet care experience extends to cats, birds, and tropical fish. However, my greatest expertise is with dogs. My knowledge of dog behavior and training has been through Caesar Milan (“Caesar’s Way” that includes rules, boundaries and limitations) plus the Leerburg methods. I’ve successfully used these techniques on my own dogs and other dogs (depending on the circumstances) as needed. Our pets are chosen family members and best friends. I believe we have a human responsibility to properly protect and care for them on every level. In general, they not only give us insight, but also regular opportunities to express care, compassion and self-awareness through our love. Generally, the dogs (or pets) would follow my schedule. Daily, I walk 2-3 miles, so the dogs would go with me—if that’s part of their routine. Unless otherwise instructed, I would feed them on my schedule, as I eat meals twice a day. I’d check their water at those times too. Everything else, like playtime, grooming, or training happens when I take breaks from my work or during relaxation time. Then, (like me!) regular potty breaks first thing in the morning, throughout the day, and before bedtime. As for other pets, I’d follow instructions from the owner. In my home (when I’ve had my own dogs), they have their own beds or designated areas, such as blankets and crates, to lay on/in. They also have play toys I bring out when it’s time to play. My dogs always know basic commands like come (and do so when their name is called), yes, no, sit, down, lay down, heel, and stay. They are potty trained and know “pee pee”, “potty” and “poop” on command, as needed. My dogs are leash trained and know how to heel and walk beside me without pulling. I use boundaries with rules inside and outside the house. There is never ever hitting or harming a dog, or any pet. I never feed dogs human food unless it’s prescribed by a vet or a special dietary requirement or recipe by the owner. They do not get fed anything from the table and have their own eating area to consume their own food at designated times. Basic commands, using their names, plus being rewarded for positive behavior with lots of affection, praise, and even a doggy treat, is a common practice for me.

About: While growing up in my childhood home for 18 years, I had and cared for a variety of pets such as cats, dogs, fish, and hamsters! Currently, I am a proud dog mom to my beautiful husky for the past 6 years. She is a very high maintenance dog so I have become proficient at all things dog care! I have come exceptional at feeding, grooming, and playing. As the weather permits, she gets an abundance of outdoor activity such as walking around our favorite parks, joining me on my morning run, hiking South Mountain and all around AZ, and socializing all the nearby dog parks! Concurrently, by trade, I am a pediatric speech language pathologist. I worked in a public elementary school and have since transitioned to home based services. As a speech therapist working with young children (especially in the schools), I possess highly transferrable skills to pet care such as patience, clear communication, love, responsibility, and playfulness! Being an SLP dog mom, I enjoyed supporting my dog’s communication skills by teaching her to communicate using a single hit speech generating button. My job consists of working with families in their homes therefore I have a very flexible schedule. I am working on building up my home health clientele therefore I have plenty of time to love on your pup! I made the switch to home health for this exact reason- to have more flexibility between work and home so I can do more of the things I love doing…taking care of furry friends! I have a walled back yard with the perfect ratio of grass to shaded patio with a doggy door. There are multiple ring cameras in the front and back yard to monitor all outdoor activity to ensure no funny business! We have a large crate (if needed) and more dog beds than human. My husband and I love to travel therefore we understand the importance of feeling your dog is safe, loved, and well taken care of. I recognize the importance of consistent communication and picture updates!

About: I never got to have my own pets as a child but I grew up caring for all kinds of animals ,sick and healthy, with my grandmother. I am currently unemployed/ looking for new work so I have plenty of days to fill with some fun with new furry friends. I have regular errands to run as well as caring for my 2 dogs I do have but I have lots of time available still so why not fill it with some face to face time with some fur babies !!! I have 3 pups of my own so if company is what your fur baby needs that is completely doable. I can crate your baby if needed and preferred when alone or free roam the whole time. Lots of toys and comfy places to nap in here ! Just ask my babies :)

About: Dog mom and kitty auntie that loves to help! Will treat your pet like family and provide the care that I would want for my pet. For boarding and day care: I have extra crates (if needed), toys, food & treats, pet friendly furniture for cuddles, a large balcony for a play area and a dog park within walking distance! I will be home 90% of that time, 2hours away max through out the day, so your pet will be comfy and most importantly, safe! Vaccinated is preferred for stays. I work remotely so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, day care and boarding. can follow any and all special instructions needed to provide the best care for your pet. I like to over communicate so you will receive plenty updates and pictures! I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, attention, and any special care instructions needed. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.
