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!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and genuinely love being around animals. I’ve raised my own dogs since they were puppies for the past 5 years, and for the last 2 years I’ve also house sat and walked dogs for other families. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, overnight care, and keeping pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I love getting to know every dog’s personality and treating them like family 🐾 I have open availability throughout the summer since school is out, which makes me very flexible and reliable for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and pet care. I’m able to give pets lots of attention, consistency, and care, and I’m committed to being dependable for both pets and their owners. If I’m house sitting, I’m very responsible and respectful of your home. I make sure to leave everything exactly how I found it while keeping your pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for both your pets and your home, and I always work to create a safe and reliable experience for owners and their animals.

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.
“Emily was able to help us very last minute and was very patient with our dog Rio, he was a bit shy at first but she was able to bring him around with kindness. Thank you again Emily!”

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: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and understood, and I take the time to learn their individual preferences, sensitivities, and quirks. Whether your pet needs structured play, slow-paced walks, medication given on schedule, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to fit visits, drop-ins, and walks around my classes, and I always make sure I have dedicated time to give each pet the attention they need. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep feeding areas clean, tidy up any messes, and make sure the space is safe before I leave. I’m detail-oriented and safety-focused, and I never rush through visits—I want every pet to feel cared for, not just “checked on.”
About: I'm a current dog dad and lifelong animal lover with 16 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Luna, my boxer, is my travel companion and my world, so your dog is in the hands that understand what they mean to you. You can rest easy knowing your loved one will get the attention of a family member with plenty of photos and updates along the way! I'm self-employed, with a fully flexible schedule that accommodates mornings, evenings, weekends, and even last-minute scheduling. Pet care fits naturally into my day, and I'm always happy to accommodate what works best for you. I take time to actually get to know each dog before diving in. I take time to understand their energy, their quirks, their needs, and their cues. I'm attentive, calm, and make sure every special requirement is understood and honored. Your dog won't just be cared for, they'll be comfortable and loved.
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.

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.
