Jessica did a fantastic job taking care of our girls Sami and Summer (our cats). She sent me pictures of them each time she checked in on them. This helped releave my anxiety of traveling so far from them. We will be using her again when we go on another big trip.

Krista was AMAZING!! She came over for a meet-and-greet first and our kitties loved her... she was on time, sent great photos and videos of our silly kitties, and gave thorough updates. She even helped us with our pool, as the storms had been crazy and the basket was continuously filling with leaves. Will hire her again, 100%!!

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: 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: Not treating every dog the same. Like people they all have different personalities. So my job is to adapt to them. Also communication with owners before starting is very important. I’m retired however I do have other passions I’m pursuing. I’m flexible I’m open from early morning till 2pm. I like in Cave Creek however I’m open for other areas. My Girl friend calls me the safety monitor. Always thinking ahead and always alert.And also aware every dog has its own personality and you need to be able to adapt.

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: Hi! I’m Joe — a lifelong dog owner and pet-care professional with over four years of hands-on experience at Partners Dog Training, where I assisted with everything from puppy fundamentals to regression cases. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, and I love helping pups feel confident, safe, and understood. Whether your dog needs daily walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or training support, I bring patience, structure, and a whole lot of love. My goal is to build long-term relationships with families who want a dependable, friendly caregiver they can trust year-round. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day — it truly shapes my day. I like to start my mornings with my first walks, giving each dog a calm, positive start. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a structured walk, or checking in on a pup who needs a little extra reassurance, beginning my day with dogs sets the tone for everything else. Throughout the day, I rotate between walks, drop-ins, and daycare clients. I make sure every dog gets individual attention, because I want them to feel seen, safe, and cared for. My training background helps me keep the day steady and organized, and I use small moments — like waiting at crosswalks or giving water breaks — to reinforce good habits and build trust. Afternoons are usually when I see my long-term or repeat clients, which is one of my favorite parts of this work. It gives me time to build real relationships with the dogs and their families, and to understand each dog’s personality on a deeper level. That consistency is important to me, and I know it matters to the families I help. By the end of the day, I wrap up with any last walks or training touch-ups, making sure every pup I spent time with feels comfortable and settled before I head home. Caring for dogs isn’t just part of my routine — it’s what I’m passionate about, and I truly love ending each day knowing I made their day better. Safety is always my top priority. With four years of hands-on experience assisting at Partners Dog Training, I’ve learned how to read body language, manage different temperaments, and create a structured environment where dogs feel secure. Whether I’m on a walk, doing a drop-in, or caring for a pup in daycare, I take the time to make sure every dog is comfortable and set up for success. I’m also big on building trust — not just with the dog, but with the family behind them. I communicate clearly, follow routines closely, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I understand that letting someone care for your pet is a big decision, and I want you to feel confident knowing your pup is with someone who genuinely cares about their well-being. Creating a calm, positive environment is part of every interaction I have. I use patience, gentle structure, and plenty of encouragement to help dogs feel relaxed and happy. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I take the time to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe every step of the way.

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.

Lyla is the best pet sitter I have ever had. She went above and beyond to take very good care of my cat Alexia for 30 days. My cat is 18 years old, she previously had two seizures about seven months ago, and she had another episode while we were out of town. Lyla, acted very professional and cared really for Alexia. She called me to inform me, she called the Vet clinic, and the emergency pet hospital. She stayed longer with Alexia to make sure she was feeling better after the episode, and she helped her recover and calm down. Lyla, treated my cat and my house with a great respect, Alexia looked cleaned and happy and the house was tidy and clean. I will hire Lyla again and again, she is very nice, professional and reliable. She could literally handle any issues and she is willing to do anything to make your babies happy. Thank you very much Lyla for being such a great person.

Krista was a dream to work with. She made sure my cats were socialized for the full allotted time and went above and beyond to take care of my babies. I am so thankful Rover led me to find her because I had zero worries while I was gone to Mexico. I will definitely use her services in the future and would recommend her to care for anyone's pets.
