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.

Karli went above and beyond to care for our two Great Danes. We’ve always been hesitant to hire someone outside of our family to care for our dogs but Karli was personable and immediately took to our dogs. There was a miscommunication and she ended up having to crawl through our dog door a couple of times but the fact that she was even willing to do so was impressive. She also cleaned up the mess when our pup shredded her dog bed. We would not hesitate to hire Karli again.

About: I have been dogsitting for my friends and family consistently for about 5 years. I have cared for corgis all the way up to great danes and have no problem spending all day with them. I can walk, feed, and bathe your pets as much as you need. I am home from college for the rest of the semester and have a lot of free time on my hands. I can care for your pet whenever you need. I will make sure your pet is happy and trusts me fully before trying to do anything with it. Your pets comfort is my number one priority.

About: I have been pet sitting for years and have worked with a variety of different volunteer organizations caring for dogs. I also have my own little dog, Roxy, who is 13 (and a certified diva). Roxy has heart failure, anxiety, and a bad hip, so I’ve become an expert at spotting when pets need a little extra care. Whether your dog is high-energy or super shy, I am patient, attentive, and want nothing more than to make them feel comfortable and safe while you’re away from home! I am currently a college student home for the summer, and am hoping to pet sit full time. Therefore, my availability is pretty much wide open. It’s very important to me that your pets have 100% of my attention, so I will never take two jobs at once. I understand that each pet has different wants, needs, and boundaries, so I do my best to make sure that I am able to make each pet as comfortable as possible. Whether it’s sticking to a daily routine or giving them some extra attention, I promise to treat your pet(s) like my own.

I searched for the right dog sitter for my English Bulldog Gigi and my little rescue mix Petey. I found Nicholas and was not disappointed! He has a calm, confident demeanor that works well with being a caretaker of dogs. In my instance it helped that he has English Bulldogs himself so he knows that they can be nippy, protective and scrappy. He demonstrated a keen sense of how to interact with Gigi and each visit he made progress with her. His detailed recaps of his visits gave me a great peace of mind while I was away. He is thorough, caring, responsive and trustworthy. He takes care of my dogs as if they were his own. I truly appreciate his ability to take care of my two and am looking forward to continued use of his services. I highly recommend Nicholas to take of your pets!

Ashley & Benjamin were incredible care takers while I was on vacation!! I’m new to Rover and it was very reassuring to know that Kota was being cared for. Ashley was super easy to communicate with and she consistently provided updates, with photos and videos which was great to see! We couldn’t more thankful for the care provided. Thank you!!

Destiny did an amazing job taking care of our pets while we were away on vacation! She was dependable, communicative, and cared for our animals like they were her own. We came home to happy boys and a clean space. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend her!

About: I was a vet technician for almost 3 years up until recently! I now work as a Business Development Manager for a start up company! I am available every day of the work week except, Saturdays and Sundays. I love both cats/dogs and have worked with all breeds and sizes. I have prior knowledge of medication and knowledge of post surgical care. I am quick on my feet and very loving! I have knowledge on how to handle skittish cats or dogs and I am very patient. I will take my time to earn your pets’ trust to make sure that they are comfortable with me. I have been raised around cats and dogs ever since I was a child and I am very fond of animals! I am not nervous around breeds like Rottweilers or pitbulls, because I have been around both. I will NOT work with dogs that have shown aggression or have previously bitten people. I am happy to answer any other questions you may have! I’m a Business Development Manager and I work daily, so I’m unavailable in the early mornings to late afternoons around 5. But I am always happy to try and figure out a schedule with you to make sure your pups/kitties are taken care of/watched/walked. Any rules you have set for me to ensure that I take the best care of your animals! I will follow guidelines and walk details!

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since my teenage years. Friends, neighbors, family, and clients have relied on me to feed, walk, bathe, and nurture their dogs. I am currently teaching group fitness classes at EOS fitness gyms a few times per week. I am also enrolled in online Yoga certification program, so I am home most of the time and available most days of the week. I have a fenced yard and currently do not have any pets in my home. We are exploring dog fostering options. If you prefer, I can crate your dog if needed.

About: We live in a clean home, in a safe community. We have (1) yellow lab that would like a friend to play with during the day. Doggy door available, feed, clean, and walk the dogs, we do it all. We have a pool at another location that we would be happy to take a dog or two, if they like to swim. I currently work from home and have an endless amount of time to feed and throw toys. We have cameras around the home for added security. I have a fenced yard. Dogs are contained within the property, unless on a leash on a walk or on a car ride. Safety is our biggest concern. I work from home and have plenty of time to throw toys and play with the dogs. There is a doggie door and fenced yard to play in. I have a fenced/walled yard with a doggie door. We do not have a pool or anything dangerous in the yard. Dogs are allowed to come and go as they like, unless we are told different by you. We allow dogs on the furniture and in the beds if they like.

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, a Scottsdale-based pet sitter who believes dogs deserve a loving home environment while you’re away and not a stressful kennel. I grew up on a farm with many house pets. I have 35 years of animal care experience and a special place in my heart for dogs! Your pup will get personalized care, lots of attention, playtime in a fenced yard, swimming in a pool, daily walks to my neighborhood walking trails, cuddles, and a cozy place to relax. I treat every pet like family and love sending photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your dog loves adventure or just wants a comfy couch and belly rubs, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I am currently a stay at home mom with kids in school. Our biggest strength is round the clock animal care. We treat animals as if they’re our own and with all the attention and care they deserve. I live in a gated community, with a fenced in yard. We begin our days with food and then a walk on our walking trail in my community. Afterwards, we like to swim in my fenced in pool in my backyard. The entire day consists of belly rubs, pets, snuggles, and as much playtime as your pup needs! I also help with crate training, and making sure we instill your house rules for animals here as well! As an animal parent myself, I understand that all animals require different things!

About: I’ve had a dog since before I was 10. With the recent passing of our oldest dog, I currently have two dogs - one quiet & small (Gryffin), and one big & rambunctious (Charlie). I love them both dearly! My fiancée also has two dogs that I like to claim as my adopted pets (Presley & Rudy). I’m currently studying for the bar exam (certifying exam for lawyers) and am looking for some cash while I spend 40 hours a week studying as my full time job. This much studying is a lot of work and I’d love to have study companions get me through it! I have had dogs of all different dispositions (e.g., the reserved, the crazy, the explorer, etc.) and have the patience and compassion to love them all and ensure they all get the attention they deserve and need.

Danny is a loving caretaker for my young puppy. Danny met me ahead of our first appointment to get a clear understanding of the structure I’m training the puppy to follow and he does a great job of maintaining the structure, exercising the puppy to help release the midday energy. Danny is a great communicator and it’s clear he loves this work! I’m looking forward to Danny’s ongoing assistance as I need help maintaining healthy growing puppy routines while I’m at work during the day!
