Cat Sitting in Avra Valley

About: I started taking care of livestock at age 9. I have been a volunteer with the Arizona Border Collie Rescue since 2022 ,I foster and transport. I have 3 Border Collies , 2 of them are rescues. One of my BC has epilepsy so I have 7 years experience with this disease. Senior dogs are my favorite but I love them all. My dogs are my world their needs always come first . I would love to meet you and your pet(s) , I can come play , take them for a walk, just drop in to give meds or meet any of their other needs. I also have a lifetime of livestock experience. I work part time and have reliable transportation , so I have plenty of flexibility. My epileptic dog gets her pills at 6am and 6 pm , all other times I’m available. First I would like to meet you and your pet(s) so we can get to know each other. I treat all animals just like my own. I can provide references from the rescue and neighbors if requested.

“Elizabeth is amazing and have so much patience. Thank you for providing us with her recommendation. We are very fortunate. Shedid everything in her power to accommodate and make the separation easier. She so full of understanding and was very concern about Maximus’ welfare If you need a sitter she is you person!”

“My girls were well taken care of. Kenma communicated with me the whole trip. Pictures and updates were provided each visit. I definitely recommend her .”

Carla N.

“3rd time booking with them, hopefully will work with them in the future. They have wonderful communication and taken great care of my cat during every visit.”

Erica S.

“The cats seemed happier and less stressed this trip. Appreciated extra help with bringing in a package and garbage can without being asked. She sent pictures of all 3 kittys in some of their favorite but hard to find hiding places, even under our bed. Instead of leaving the keys under the front door mat where someone might find them before we got home, she messaged me she'll drop them off when we're home. I would highly recommend Kylee if you're looking for someone who gives the best pet care but who also cares about things not necessarily expected of her.”

Susan F.

“I loved the several pictures and the last minute availability. Benji is my child in dog form and it felt safe and comfortable. She did not feel like a stranger and I’m very happy with the drop in service I got. Will 100% have her over again!”

Francisca H.

“Kate & Tim were wonderful with our 17 year old cat while we were away. They were able to work with his special meals and medications. They were very prompt with their twice daily visits and soon became friends with our timid cat. I would highly recommend them!”

Mary B.

“Kristina is first rate! She listened to our pups needs and went over and beyond to show them love. She played with them, shared a photo, and gave them extra care during her visit. I will definitely use her again.”

About: I've taken care of rabbits, dogs, cats, fishes, and even hermit crabs! I used to live on a farm so I'm used to taking care of the smallest pets to the biggest. My own pets are elderly and so I can admitted proper care to them. I also have experience with cats that are diagnosed with kidney disease. I prefer weekends for house sitting or overnight! I can do very early dogs walks especially during the summer to keep pets safe and out of the heat. The same can be said about evenings, whenever is safest for the animals. I am a very good multitasking, so I'm confident in my ability to keep pets safe when pet sitting. I prefer details on clients homes, like if the backyard is fenced, etc. So that I can make a through plan to keep your pets safe.

“Everything went as planned”

Dwayne L.

“Dwayne was awesome. Dependable. Loved our kitties. Sent pictures and daily reports. Even noticed deliveries and brought them in the house. I had to add an additionalday, the day we left, and he went right over to our house. I hope he's available next time we need drop in visits.”

Susan F.

“Lauren-you are amazing!! My pups a so reserved and you were able to bring them out of their shell. I truly appreciate all of you efforts to bond with them and spend time with them. This was the first trip I was at peace leaving them under someone’s care. Thank you for all that you did!”

“Super friendly, kind, competent. A great communicator .”

Fern Q.

“Saige did a wonderful job watching my babies! She brought my packages inside that were delivered while I was away, took my garbage out, and generally just went above and beyond. I will definitely book with her again and am so grateful to have had such a sweet trustworthy sitter. I recommend her highly.”

About: I grew up on a farm with over five dogs, and animals have been a core part of my life ever since. Throughout my adult life, I’ve had many dogs of my own, and I also own a dog training company. I’ve trained and boarded dogs professionally for over 10 years. Pets are my whole world. Every dog in my care is treated like a member of the family, with constant love, attention, enrichment, and comfort. Their safety, emotional wellbeing, and happiness are always my top priorities. I have a large home and a fully fenced yard, giving dogs plenty of space to roam, play, and relax. I currently have three dogs of my own, all friendly and well-socialized. If your dog is uncomfortable with one of mine, I will always separate as needed so every dog can feel secure, calm, and stress-free during their stay. Please note: This is a smoking household (legal medical cannabis). I maintain strong scent control with ventilation, Air Wick plug-ins, and incense, and no smoking is ever done in enclosed pet areas. All cannabis products are securely stored and kept far out of reach of pets. If your dog has sensitivities to scents, feel free to ask any questions — I’m happy to accommodate when possible. My goal is simple: For your pet to feel safe, loved, and completely at home. Pets are my whole world. Every dog in my care is treated like a member of the family, with constant love, attention, enrichment, and comfort. Their safety, emotional wellbeing, and happiness are always my top priorities. Your dog’s safety is always my priority. I have a large home and fully fenced yard with secure boundaries. My own dogs are friendly and experienced with guest dogs, and I always do slow introductions while ensuring each dog has their own space. If a dog is not compatible with one of mine, I simply rotate or separate areas of the house. Every dog gets individualized attention, structure, and a calm, loving environment. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for during their entire stay.

About: I have had pets since I was five - birds, dogs, and hamsters, oh my! I was 14 when I started pet sitting and got my first cat (on my own) at 19. I now have four cats and two dogs that I love dearly 💖 I also have experience working at a doggy day care where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. Playful or snuggly, wigglebutt or leaner, chaos incarnate or zen - I loved every dog that came into that daycare! I have cared for senior cats and dogs as well as puppies and kittens. I'm the one at parties sitting on the floor snuggling the dog; the one who spends new year's and 4th of July singing to her anxious fur babies to drown out the fireworks; and the one who will have full conversations with any dog or cat that will listen! TLDR I LOVE all animals and would love to take care of your fur baby as if they were my own 💖 I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule, and can work around your/your pet's schedule! I can be available for quick drop ins or longer hang outs if your pets are very needy (like mine) 😊 I also can have doggos hang out at my house in the afternoon/evening Tuesday-Saturday if that is preferred! Since I WFH they will have constant supervision. I have a fenced in yard with lots of space for zoomies, and two high enery dogs to keep your pup company! I have cats, but they are in a separate area of the house that the dogs don't have access to. When at your home, I make sure to adapt to your pet's environment and make them as comfortable with me as possible. I let them come to me and watch/listen for signals that they need something different from me.

“Thank you!!”

About: I am an army veteran and a credentialed veterinary technician with more than 15 years in the field. I currently work at an emergency ICU hospital, and actively pursuing my specialization in emergency and critical care. My husband works from home as a software engineer, so someone is always there. My daughter has been around animals her whole life, and is very trained around all personality types. I also am a certified pharmacy technician, and am well versed with medications and administration. I have spent extensive training in behavior and volunteer with rescues. Special needs dogs that have special personalities or needs are no problem. My goal is to make this experience as smooth, as stress-free as possible and most importantly fun! What to expect out of a visit or stay with us: Our fur babies are just as important as our humans in our families. I will be providing daily picture and video updates, Daily monitoring/report cards for each day in our care, incident reports, and a graduate certificate after each stay. I currently work at am Emergency Veterinary hospital as a relief technician. This means I basically can make and adjust my schedule around as I please. My husband works from home, so there is always someone there to entertain our visitors. I have a fenced in backyard and several gates to segregate different pets. I am trained with the "crate and rotate" method. Meaning if there are dogs that are more nervous, I will let them outside on their own or eat by themselves, but they are able to see through the barriers so they can still socialize until they are more comfortable.

About: My name is Katie and I am a doctoral student studying Industrial and Organizational Psychology. I am hoping to start up a non-profit senior dog rescue sanctuary in the near future. I have loved dogs since I was a baby. I grew up with all kind of dogs from Irish Setter to Gordon Settler to Lab to Cocker Spaniels. Now I’m raising 5 years old border collie and 3 years old black lab. I am usually free in late afternoons, evenings and on the weekends. I do also work from home and can adjust my schedule a little bit if you need me during the day. When I’m not in school or working, I enjoys reading, walking and geeking out at the museums. Please feel free to reach out anytime if you have questions. I look forward to hear from you! During the weekdays, I usually take dogs out for potty every two to three hours and I would take them out for a walk in morning, during lunch break, and in evening. I usually give two meals a day (morning and evening) and set a time aside to play with them. I live in a house and have two friendly dogs that can play with your puppy. I also have a crate in case your dog needs to be crated. My home also has a huge backyard for the dogs to play in. For safety reasons, I prefer to supervise the dogs while they are in the backyard.

About: I’ve been dog sitting and house sitting for about 4 years now, caring for all kinds of pets from chill, low maintenance dogs to super high-energy ones that need a lot of attention and exercise. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and even giving medications if needed. I’ve also cared for multiple pets at once, so I know how to manage different personalities and keep everything running smoothly. Since I’m active, I make sure dogs actually get real exercise and attention not just the bare minimum. Whether that’s longer walks, play sessions, or just keeping them company, I adjust based on what your pet needs. I also have a lot of experience staying in clients’ homes, so I understand the importance of keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. I treat both your pets and your home with respect. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to give pets a lot of attention throughout the day. I’m active and like being out, so walks, playtime, and check-ins fit naturally into my routine. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I do my best to work around your pet’s normal schedule so everything feels consistent for them. I always treat every home and pet with respect, like it’s my own. I make sure doors are secure, routines are followed, and your pet is always safe and comfortable. I pay attention to details like feeding, behavior, and surroundings so nothing gets overlooked. Whether I’m in your home or stopping by, my goal is to keep things clean, calm, and stress-free for your pet.
