Dog Walking Black Canyon City

About: Experience caring for anxious and/or special needs animals (diapers, mobility issues, medication, senior dogs, puppies) both professionally and personally. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting on and off for family friends and neighbors since I was a teenager, but started doing so more professionally in the past 5 years. Most of my experience is with overnight care for dogs (ranging from a single night to a full month at a time) but I’m an animal lover with personal experience caring for every kind of pet imaginable (horses, ferrets, fish, cats, bunnies, reptiles/tortoises). I work very flexible hours part-time which mostly consists of work from home, this leaves my schedule wide open for overnight care and long stays. Very good at keeping consistency with feeding and medication schedules, as well as making sure potty breaks taken as frequently as needed (experience with special needs dogs who require being let outside/cleaned up after much more than other dogs).

About: I have 14 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, grooming, administering oral medications, and providing companionship. I'm comfortable with energetic dogs that require regular exercise as well as older pets with special needs. I understand feline behavior and ensure cats have a clean litter area, proper nutrition, and a stress-free environment. I'm attentive to pet health and safety and know how to spot early signs of illness or distress. Whether it's a quick check-in or overnight care, I prioritize their comfort and well-being. I have a flexible schedule when it comes to pet sitting, allowing me to accommodate various time frames to suit both your needs and your pet's routine. Whether you require short-term care, extended stays, or occasional drop-ins, I can adjust my availability to fit your schedule. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet, ensuring they receive the attention, love, and care they deserve. Let me know your preferred times, and I'll work to make it happen! Whether at your home or mine, I foster a safe, calm, loving environment where pets feel at ease and at home, reducing stress and ensuring they receive the same affection and attention they would from their own families. Your pet's happiness and safety is my top priority every step of the way.

About: In addition to house/pet sitting, I have owned numerous dogs and cats plus hamsters, fish, chickens, and horses. I enjoy working with animals and am open to caring for most types of pets. I have previous experience with Housecarers and Trusted Housesitters and can provide copies of reviews by pet owners. I am retired so my schedule is flexible. I am physically very active and able to handle extensive walking as needed. I do occasionally travel but plan my travel months in advance so it would not interfere with any scheduled sits or pet care. I am not available to care for pets in my home. I would be available both day or night to care for or sit for pets in your home. I am a walker, so dog walking is one of my favorite activities with pets.

About: I'm was professional pet trainer at a major retail chain. I've lived with a dog, cat, chinchilla, hamster, bird, or fish most of my life. I love fur babies and want help people when they need to be away from their beloved pets. Most recently, I helped sit a household with four elderly dogs with various medical needs. I have experience giving medications to dogs, as well as dogs with disabilities like blindness and deafness. Ideally with pet sitting, my wife and I would meet the dogs and/or cats before we pet sit to learn their specific needs, and learn where the food and treats hide. Depending on the pets and the weather, we like long hikes/walks and short trips around the neighborhood. You actually receive two pet sitters with me. My spouse will be home most of the time while I'm at work. I'm also a certified pet sitter with Pet Sitters International. I'm a Vocational Specialist, and my wife and I work together when petsitting, so she's there when I'm not. We work together and it's a team business. I like to learn the current routine of your beloved pet(s) and try to keep their routine for their comfort. I make sure I learn your house rules and will not let those puppy dog eyes persuade me to let them on the couch unless you say it is ok. I have my Pet First Aid Course and am taking other courses to increase my Pet Safety knowledge.

About: I've cared for animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, tortoises, and fish, and have experience pet sitting overnight for many families. I'm especially passionate about caring for senior pets and those with physical disabilities. I've cared for two elderly dogs with mobility challenges, including one who lost the use of their back legs and needed assistance getting around and going outside. I understand that these pets require extra patience, gentleness, and individualized care, and I'm committed to making them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also volunteered for two years at a cat shelter, where I fed cats, deep-cleaned kennels and litter boxes, monitored their health, and administered medications according to their care plans. I also have experience giving medications to dogs. While I'm not a certified trainer, I've trained my own dogs and know how important consistency is. I'm happy to follow your pet's established commands, routines, and house rules to help them feel secure and maintain good habits. Living in Arizona has made me very flexible with schedules, including early morning or late evening walks during the summer heat. Above all, I know pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, compassion, and attention I'd want for my own. During the summer, I have open availability and can provide overnight care any day of the week. During the academic year, I'm also available for overnight house sitting. As a graduate student, I attend classes Tuesday through Thursday, but I stay overnight in your home and return as soon as my classes are finished. My class schedule is consistent each week, so you'll always know when I'll be away and when I'll be back. I'm fully available Friday through Monday. I'm happy to discuss your pet's needs to make sure my schedule is a good fit. I believe the best pet care starts with keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll follow your feeding schedule, walking routine, medication instructions, and any household rules or commands your pet is already familiar with so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat, or a senior pet who needs extra assistance, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I'm attentive to changes in behavior, make sure fresh water is always available, and provide plenty of affection while respecting each pet's individual personality and boundaries. I also know how important communication is when someone else is caring for your pet. I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: We are a family of 5 - mom, dad, as of 2024, a 7 year old boy, Anquan the old alphadog and Chase the young pup. (We just put our old pup down and can’t bring myself to fully change the profile yet but FYI, we just have Chase now 😥) We have grown up around dogs and had dogs of our own our whole lives. My mother-in -law bred dogs and walked in and judged dog shows, so our household has picked up a few tips and tricks for training and care. We love our pups and we will love yours too! We live in a house with a fenced yard and have a large trampoline my dogs like to sun bath on for some reason. We have grass and rocks in our backyard for your picky poopers, and when we take walks, they are down the canal and over to Papago since our street ends at the canal. We both work from home so we will be with the dogs all day, and my pups will be so happy to have new playmates. We have a young pup who will be happy to share toys and treats and tire your dogs out and we have an old man who is happy to share his couch space with your old guys. My husband started freelancing so he is happy to earn a little extra and come walk your dogs, or watch your dogs at your place as well. Up to you! We give our old man medicine so we are comfortable giving any meds that are needed, or administering special diets. Just let us know 😉🙃 FYI’s…. - We do not have any cats and will not watch cats in our home but are happy to do so in your home. - I feel for dog owners in apartments/condos, especially during the summer months, but if your dog does not know how to or won’t use the restroom on any surface but the patio, this does not work for us. Not only do we not want that on our patio but our patio is brick and the bricks are porous and stain easily. If this ends up being the case, it is our discretion to add a cleaning fee. - You are welcome to bring toys/bones as long as your pup doesn’t mind sharing and doesn’t have aggression attached to the item - You are welcome to bring toys, bed, whatever BUT you don’t have to as we have plenty to share and we are not responsible if the items gets damaged. We have two dogs and sometimes watch more than 1 dog at a time and you never know how animals will react to being in a new place with new dogs. So we can’t be responsible if a bed gets gnawed on or a toy get chewed. - All we really need is your dog food and treats. We also have treats but if your pup can have a sensitive stomach, we would rather have their treats. FYI - booking house sitting means you want us to Be at your home as much as possible with your pets and possibly sleeping over. If you just need someone to pop in to feed/walk/play - that’s is booking a “drop-in” We both work remotely and my husband only works part-time so we are always available but for exceptional situations which we will mark as unavailable. We already take care of our own 2 so we do walks first thing in the morning and after dinner. We also have a doggie door to our backyard. If we have your pups on the weekend, it’s not summer and your pup is capable, it is likely we will take a walk to the Hole In The Rock since it’s right down the canal from our house and a good distance for my kiddo and pups. But we will make sure to ask you what your pups can and can not do before doing so. Usually, the dogs are so exhausted from just playing in the yard all day that walks and hikes are last thing on their minds! I have a fenced in grass yard with a doggie door and two friendly pups to keep your pup company. I also have a little boy who loves dogs and the first thing he does when he gets home from school is play with the dogs. If we are coming to your home, your rules are your rules. We will just try to keep their schedule and structure as close to the one they are used to and it would just be one of us as someone will stay home with our pups. Happy to bring our pups over if you want a playdate while gone as well.

About: Hi there! I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have always had dogs as part of my family. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love. I’m very patient, compassionate, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. While I’m not a certified trainer, I have personally trained my own dogs in basic commands, fun tricks, and positive behaviors using consistency and encouragement. I understand how important routine, structure, and affection are for happy, well balanced pets. I currently have two friendly, playful dogs of my own who love making new friends. Your pet will be treated like family in my home with plenty of love, supervision, and playtime. For boarding, I prefer to schedule a meet and greet beforehand to ensure we’re a great fit and that everyone feels comfortable. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your “fur baby”. I would want the same peace of mind! If you have any questions or would like to get to know me better, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Currently I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which allows me to accommodate drop-ins throughout the week at times that work best for you and your pet. Being home based also means I can give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and consistency rather than rushing in and out. Your pet’s care will always be a priority in my day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. We have a spacious backyard with plenty of room to run, play, and burn off energy in a safe environment. My two friendly Golden Retrievers are well socialized and get along great with other dogs, making it a fun and welcoming atmosphere for visiting pups. In both my home and my clients’ homes, I prioritize safety, routine, and individualized care. I follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible whether that means structured playtime, relaxing cuddle time, feeding routines, walks, or special instructions. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I’m here to provide the best experience possible for your dog or cat and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands.

He even got our pooch a water when it seemed he was thirsty because I forgot to pack one. Thank you Daniel! Will be using you again, I’m sure.”

About: I have taken care of small and big dogs since I was little. Our family has had a pug, as well as 3 labs throughout my lifetime. I love taking care of pets as well as exercising them! I work full-time, so evenings or weekends work best for me! If needed, I could let dog out during day during the week. I am flexible! I can take care of your part either at my place or yours. I am very active and love to take a pet along for my adventures. My labs have always appreciated this aspect!

About: Hello & welcome to your search for a loving caregiver for you fur babes! I am happy you are here! I am excited to meet your kiddos and have the opportunity to give them love and attention while you are away. My family has 6 dogs and has always had pets growing up! I love to take my dog everywhere I go and he is basically my son. I have previously watched pets in my home and now am looking forward to watching your pets, doing day visits, and walks to help ease your schedule and their needs. I am currently my own boss and work throught the day at my own pace and schedule. I have a flexible schedule and wide availability to be there for you and your sweet babies. I am happy to care for you pet in whatever way best suites them & you. That being said prompt feedings, walks, play time, and potty breaks are priority for me. I want your pet to be as relaxed as you are when you are away.

About: Hello! I have been taking care of animals since I was very little and have over 10 years of experience. I currently have 2 large dogs of my own and have owned other dogs and small animals in the past. And while I haven’t owned them, I have taken care of cats and reptiles in the past as well. I previously worked at a dog daycare for 3 years, and I’m currently working at a veterinary hospital. In working at the daycare I have experience working with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from Great Danes and Pitbulls to Chihuahuas and Dachshunds, and working at the vet has given me much more insight into animal care as well. I have experience with the following: senior pets, handicapped dogs, anxious pets, epileptic dogs, medications, and training puppies. I know how stressful it is to leave your pets so I pride myself in giving the same kind of care I would want my own fur babies to have. I currently work part time during the summer, so I will have plenty of time to help out with your pets! During the fall and winter I attend college and work. I will still be available during those times, my availability just may be slim. Note: I work 6-8 hour shifts on my work days so potty breaks on days I work would be would be at least that far apart plus travel time I pride myself in giving the same kind of care I would want my dogs to receive. At this time I am not offering boarding in my home, but I am more than willing to stay at your home (with potential overnight stays if needed). I find that dogs are less stressed when they stay at home rather than at a strangers house. That being said, I always make time for cuddles and other activities to try to keep your pets at ease so that going on a trip is just as relaxing for your pets as it is for you.
