“Jane was amazing. Always letting us know how the babies were doing. Took such good care of them. Great photos. She is a blessing from God. Came in at the last minute and we knew she was the one. I give the highest recommendation possible.”
“Sarah was amazing! Very trustworthy and she even left us a cute little thank you note even though she was a helping us while we were away. Will definitely be trusting her with my fur babies again”
“Alyssa took such good care of our older cat while we were away! He can be a little particular about how he likes things and also quite shy, but Alyssa won him over very quickly. Her communication and punctuality were also excellent and I would definitely work with her again and recommend her to other pet parents.”
“If I could leave more than 5 stars I would!! Thank you Daizy for taking care of our Kona everything was perfect and we appreciated the updates!”
“Came home to my house in order and kitties happy. Can't ask for anything better! I will always appreciate how Destiny always does what we ask of her and makes us feel good about our cats being in her care. She is the best and we appreciate her so much!”
“I was a bit hesitant as this was my first time using Rover, but Jessica made the experience great. She was punctual, very friendly, and sent me a detailed report with pictures of how Rodolfo did. Even though he was a bit distrusting, she noted he was well-behaved. I’d definitely consider booking Jessica again.”
“Aubree was professional and so sweet. I felt very comfortable leaving her to check in on my cats, and she left detailed cards after each visit”
“I'm having problems trying to do a review and leave a tip. So, let me try again. I'm very happy with Hunter and enjoyed the pictures I received. He was healthy and happy when I got home. I'm going to use her again in August for a shorter trip. I'm hoping I can find the place to leave her a tip because I was so pleased.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life in the household. When I was a young teen my first job was dog walking the neighborhood dogs as well as dog sitting for vacationing families. As an adult my love for dog sitting continued to watching all my friends pets while they traveled or led busy lifestyles. I currently have a flexible schedule daily. I am available mornings, mid days and evenings I have a few children that I take to school in the morning. I live in an apartment and make sure my dog is walked on long walks 3-4 times a day to receive the fresh air and exercise needed.
“Very on top of things and updated frequently”
“Shanelle has been such a great help us while we were on vacatione for two weeks for 4 of our cats (two are my sister’s cats). Always communicative, came at a timely manner, quick to respond, and making sure our pets were safe, fed, and home secured! Also to mention, being proactive in adjusting our visits as needed when we ended the visits with two cats. We appreciate every visit and would highly recommend Shanelle!!! Thank you so much!”
“Great service! Dogs really got along with him and followed our directions with no problems. We will definitely be requesting his services again.”
“Teagan took such good care our little girl Neighla. She was absolutely wonderful and I am sorry she is relocating out of state as I would not hesitate to reach out to her again.”
About: Plenty of experience raising, training, and caring for puppies. Some experience caring for senior/physically disabled dogs. I mainly have experience with large dog breeds up to 140 lbs and some small dog breeds as little as 10 lbs. I have plenty of time as I am currently at home during the week and most week ends, I work at Estrella Mountain Community College's Animal Ambassador Lab, I am a tutor, and a volleyball coach, which all takes place in the evening which gives me plenty of time during the day! I have a fenced backyard with a large pool for dogs to play in, as well as 3 other dogs. If need be, there is a room for dogs to take a break in away from the others, supplied with toys beds and water, in case they get overwhelmed or need to calm down :)
About: I’m a nose-kisser, a dog whisperer, and a believer in speaking to animals like they understand (because honestly, I think they do). I have experience with senior dogs, special needs pups, and cats too — and I know each pet comes with their own personality, preferences, and quirks. I’m here to honor all of that. I grew up on horseback in Montana, where animals were not only part of daily life, but central to it. That upbringing gave me a deep-rooted respect and connection with animals of all kinds — the kind that sticks with you forever. Dogs have always been at the center of my life — not just as pets, but as family. Since I was a small child, there’s never been a time I didn’t have a dog by my side. In our home, they’ve always been more like additional kids than animals, and I know that’s how it is for many of you, too. That’s why I’ll treat your furry family members with the same love, respect, and gentle care I give my own. Whether your pet needs a slow stroll, a quiet visit, or just someone kind and calm to keep them company, I’ve got the time, energy, and heart to be that person. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I’ve intentionally made space for it! I recently moved to Estrella Mountain Ranch in Goodyear, AZ, and decided it was time to step away from the corporate grind in favor of something that brings me more joy — spending time with animals and helping out my neighbors. I have a flexible, open schedule and I’m happy to be at the beck and call of your fur bosses, whether they need some exercise, an afternoon cuddle break, or overnight companionship. Supporting your busy life by making sure your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you're away feels like time well spent — and exactly where I want to be. When I care for pets in your home, I’ll bring love, reliability, and the ability to follow very specific instructions — especially if your cat is in charge (as they usually are). Your pets will have 100% of my attention when I'm in your home, and when they're in my home, they'll have two gentle playmates. I’ve got experience with senior dogs, special needs pets, rowdy puppies, and emotionally complex cats. Whatever your furry family member needs — I’m here for it. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, mealtime routine, a quiet chat, or overnight snuggles while you’re away, I’ll keep things calm, clean, and just how your pet likes it. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved animals — and I promise to treat them with the same heart and reverence I give my own. I’m based in Estrella Mountain Ranch, but happy to travel to Goodyear, Litchfield, Avondale, and nearby areas. My schedule is flexible, my standards are high, and my pet voice impressions are excellent.
About: I have cared for my dogs for 22 years and grew up in a family that had dogs. I have experience with walking dogs that have not been leash trained and also dogs that are reactive to other dogs. I prefer to use a harness for my larger dogs to make sure they are safe. I can walk and play with dogs for as long as needed if they are high energy. I love dogs and hope to spend the rest of my life with them! I am available to walk dogs most evenings during the summer and can also be available at other times. This is the same for home visits. For pet sitting my schedule availability will be in my calendar. I want our dogs to be happy, safe and comfortable and I always keep my attention on them when I walk. For home visits and pet sitting I’m going to follow your direction and be a kind and careful visitor.
About: I've taken care of small dogs since I was 13 years old. My Grandparents and other family members have trusted me to house sit, walk and take care of there pets for years. I'm currently working part time and in college remotely so I'll have plenty of spare time to house sit and play with your furry friends. I'm available on the weekends and after 2pm on weekdays I am a calming and friendly person when it comes to caring for animals. I will often check up on there food dishes, play with them or snuggle depending on the dogs energy that day.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid. Including dogs, cats, iguanas, turtles, and aquarium fish. I’ve had many different pets along the way, but currently only have one cat Penny. My kids are grown and out of the house so I have lots of flexibility. I work as a teacher but available most weekends, and maybe even during the week depending on the circumstances. You are opening your home to me and that is something that I do not take lightly. I am neat and clean and will leave your house that way too. I will love on your fur baby whatever way they need. Snuggles, treats, a passing glance at the grouchy kitty, I’m there for ya!
“Lacey did an amazing job with my cats over the last eight days. My cats aren’t angels by any means but Lacey had great composure and patience in helping calm my Siamese with me being out of the house, she wrote great detailed notes daily, went above in beyond in many ways, she communicates well and is very professional. I’ve used the service for years and she by far did the best job, I highly recommend her and will continue to book her as long as I’m here.”
“She did a wonderful job looking after our two cats for a week. She took photos each day which was a big relief to us, as we could see them warming up and playing with her. We’ll be asking her to watch our cats again.”

Laura O.
“Laura has watched my dogs for past 2 years when I would travel. She treats my 2 pups as her own! She is a very out going, sweet person, and her love for animals is amazing! I have used other dog walkers who wouldn’t show up and when they would I would get complaints about my dogs whining, being wild, barking at people , and non pick up of poop which is unacceptable ! Two years of Laura being my walker never a no show, always prompt, and not not a single complaint. I would highly recommend using Laura!”

Callie J.
“I am wholehearted and enthusiastic happy to share my reference for Callie, who has cared for my dog on numerous occasions over the past 13 years. I can say with complete confidence that she is one of the most reliable, compassionate, and responsible pet sitters I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Callie has a natural way with animals and they instinctively connect with her, almost instantly. Callie treats every dog in her care as if it were her own. My pup literally gets so excited to see Callie that she runs and grabs a toy and does circles around the house, while stopping to get snuggles from Callie at every pass. Callie follows feeding schedule perfectly, ensured regular walks and playtime tailored to your pets energy level, and will keep you updated with daily photos and updates on your pet that will give me peace of mind while you're was away. Beyond being an attentive and loving caregiver, Callie is very trustworthy, and highly communicative (get ready for lots of great pet pics). If your pet needs medication administration, no problem, Callie know how! Professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set Callie apart for other pet sitters/walkers. I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Callie to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. If you have the opportunity to work with her, you and your pet will be in the best possible hands and a forever bond will be created between Callie and your pet.”
Willow L.
“Beyond being one of the friendliest people I know, Willow is incredibly reliable, consistent, and deeply committed to caring for my pets. My dog Nolajean is very large and can be slow to trust new people, but Willow was wonderfully patient—always moving slowly and spending the time needed to build that bond. Her gentle approach and clear intuition show how much she not only loves animals but truly understands their needs. Willow is large-dog friendly small-dog approved, and officially cat-certified! I can’t recommend Willow highly enough.”
Madison H.
“I am thrilled to offer my wholehearted recommendation for Madison as a candidate for a position with your dog company, Rover. I have known them for their entire life, and in that time, they have consistently shown a remarkable level of kindness, patience, and dedication, qualities that make them perfect for working with animals. Madison is a genuinely compassionate and trustworthy individual who approaches every task with care and integrity. What stands out most is their natural connection with dogs. Whether it's taking time to calmly earn the trust of a nervous pup or staying attentive to the needs of an energetic one, they intuitively understand how to make dogs feel safe, loved, and happy. Their passion for animals is matched by their sense of responsibility. You can always count on Madison to be reliable, professional, and committed to doing what's best for the dogs in their care. They treat every dog as if it were her own, and any pet parent would be lucky to have them looking after their furry family member. I have no doubt that Madison will be an outstanding addition to your team, and I enthusiastically recommend them for any role involving the care and well-being of dogs. Sincerely, Gregg Hill greggshill@hotmail.com 360 510-0361”
Kathleen M.
“Kathleen is super professional, laid-back, and dependable. I’ve had her look after my dog, Mbaku, a few times when I couldn’t be home, and she always came through. She really does her due diligence—definitely the definition of integrity. Plus, she loves animals, so if your companion is friendly, she’s not just gonna make sure they’re good—she’s gonna genuinely enjoy it. It’ll probably make her whole day.”
