About: In my view, pets are like people in that they have thier own individual needs, especially when thier people are away or when someone strange to them is caring for them, even if it's only on a walk. I pride myself on building a relationship with a dog (or other animals) from the moment I meet them with a respectful approach that allows them to get to know me and me to know them. I genuinely want to make that dog feel comfortable and secure with me. I am open to whatever needs you feel your pet has, a fitness walk for wellness, or cuddling when you are away and they miss you. I would love to meet you both, or all, and talk about your needs. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to meet your scheduling needs. Early morning and late evening visits are not an issue for me. The greatest rewards of what I provide is safe, reliable care that gives you peace of mind that your loved family members are taken care of.

About: Lifelong Pet Lover with 20+ Years of Experience You Can Count On Hi! I’m Allison—an experienced and compassionate pet and house sitter with over two decades of trusted care. Whether it’s cuddling with a senior cat, administering insulin to a diabetic dog, or keeping your home safe and tidy while you're away, I’m here to make your pets feel comfortable and loved in your absence. With 10+ years of veterinary technician care experience, I’m confident giving medications (oral and injectable, including fluids and insulin) and caring for pets with special medical needs. I’ve worked with animals of all shapes and sizes—from playful puppies and curious kittens to large birds, farm animals, and everything in between. I’ve even helped raise over 20 puppies with basic obedience and kennel training. I’m happy to assist with light home care as well—like bringing in the mail, watering plants, or checking your pool. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, and I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Let’s connect and see how I can help your pets stay safe, happy, and relaxed while you’re gone! Currently, I work for the University of Arizona's College of Veterinary Medicine. I do travel some for work, but will routinely check to make sure both schedules work with each other. I make time to let dogs out for potty breaks or to give medication or feed. I do my best to follow the directions left by the client. Every pet/home does have its own routine and how pets "vibe" with me compared to their owners or people they are used to. I also will let clients know ASAP if something has happened or if there is an issue that perhaps can't wait until they return home.

About: I have been lucky enough to have been surrounded by a variety of pets (dogs, cats, horses, pigs, chickens, fish, goats, reptiles, and small mammals) my entire life and have always taken a prominent role in caring for them. My husband and I share a deep love for animals and treat them as a part of the family and would treat yours with the same level of care. We have our own flock of chickens as well as experience with goats (including milking) so can help out with the homestead if needed! We love spoiling our pack just enough and can promise to do the same with yours. I have open availability to walk or watch your pets any day of the week. I have a part time job but it's very flexible so I can take care of the pack anytime! Safety and security first. I will always prioritize the safety of your pet above all and will make sure that when they're with me that they are monitored and supported in any way necessary.

About: I’ve been dedicated to animal care for as long as I can remember — from volunteering at shelters as a kid to professionally walking dogs and advocating for animal welfare throughout my life. I bring more than just experience; I bring heart. I’m especially skilled with both puppy care and senior pets, understanding their unique needs, whether it’s gentle guidance for the young ones or extra patience and support for older companions. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and enriching environment tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. Every animal in my care is treated like family — with compassion, consistency, and a whole lot of love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a student with classes only on Saturdays, I have a flexible schedule during the week and weekends, making me readily available for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so whether it's part of my morning routine or winding down in the evening, I’m always happy to make time for quality care, play, and companionship. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to help them feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I take the time to understand each pet’s specific needs — from feeding schedules and exercise routines to any medications or special instructions. I keep things clean, calm, and comfortable, and I always respect your space as if it were my own. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they’re used to — and lots of love, too. Regular updates and photos are always part of the package, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away.

About: With 30+ years of life with cats & dogs, I bring calm, loving, experienced care tailored to each dog or cat’s unique needs. I pay close attention to routines, energy levels, and personalities, whether that means long walks, slow strolls, playtime, or quiet companionship. My goal is for your cat or dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for, not just watched, while you’re away. I own my own business and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because I’m in control of my day, dogs/cats get consistent attention, timely walks, meals on schedule, and plenty of companionship, never long stretches alone. This allows me to truly adapt to each dog’s/cat’s routine, energy level, and individual needs. I’m happy to care for your dog/cat in the comfort of your own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow your routines closely, i.e. walks, meals, medications, and playtime, so your dog’s/cats’s day stays familiar while you’re away. Being in their own space helps reduce stress and keeps things calm and comfortable.

About: Lifelong owner of Aussies and Goldens with experience sitting Labs, Collies, and Shih Tzus. Currently dog-free and eager for a "dog fix" through reliable care! Working from home, I offer flexible morning, midday, or evening visits. Because I have a remote schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. Since I don't currently have a dog of my own, these visits provide my much-needed 'dog fix' and serve as the perfect reason to step away from my desk and get active. Whether it's a brisk morning walk to start the day, a midday potty break, or evening companionship, I have the time and dedication to prioritize your pet's routine. My schedule allows me to be consistent and reliable, ensuring your pup gets the attention they deserve exactly when they need it.

About: My experience with dogs and cats has always been rewarding! Even the so-called “mean” animals seem to show me warmth, which is why my family calls me the dog whisperer! I volunteer at Pima Animal Care Center (PACC), where I’ve completed rigorous training to ensure I can keep animals of all breeds and sizes safe while walking them. In addition, I work for a dog grooming company, which has given me experience helping pets stay calm in stressful environments. These wonderful opportunities have made me excellent at reading body language and understanding each animal’s needs. Above all, I simply love animals and would be delighted to help care for yours! I just graduated Mountain View Highschool this May! I graduated with a 3.3 while playing Varsity Softball and Varsity Flag Football. I will be attending Pima in the fall but my schedule is very flexible. I don’t have any animals of my own so I love the time I get to spend with the dogs I wish I could have at home. I love walking the dogs at the shelter and I often run them for a portion of it too!

I have experience with rescue dogs and dogs requiring special medication/needs. I am taking care of my dog with Addison's disease, requiring daily medicine and special food diet. I can take dogs on long walks, to the dog park, stay over at your place to comfort them and get plenty of play/ love time. I am a grad student with a flexible schedule and can cater to you and your dogs needs to ensure they have a great time away. My whole life I have had small/ medium dogs as family pets and can manage to take care of them. I also have a small kitten that I recently adopted to house train. I have a love for animals. Looking forward to meeting the dogs/ cats and owners! Looking forward to being flexible with your schedule and pets needs. I am a morning person and would love to start my day and end my day with your pet. I have a fenced yard that is safe for the animals. I am able to crate animals safely if need be and let them out often to roam the house. Also, feel confident in halter/leash set-up to ensure great walks!
