Dog Walking Clark Park

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I am extremely flexible since I am in a hybrid program for classes, so all of my didactic/classroom work is fully online and accessible from anywhere and anytime! I do work Friday mornings from 8am-12pm and may not be available some weekends since I work every third weekend minimum. Otherwise, I’m completely flexible and will always try to work with you! I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.

About: I’ve been around/taken care of dogs and other animals since I was about 10 years old. I’ve owned cats, dogs, and other animals ever since. I have also taken care of neighbors, siblings, and friends pets over the years! I am currently a student at ASU so I am providing pet sitting services on here since that works best with my class schedule! I currently only have one in-person class so I have a very flexible schedule to make visits with your fur babies! Whenever I care for someone fur baby, I always follow the owner’s instructions to a T! Routine is definitely important for animals just as much as humans.

About: Hi there, I’m Gloria, and I truly treat every pet like family! 🐾 I spent a year as an Animal Care & Experience Specialist at an animal shelter, so I’m happy to help with everything from feeding and cleaning to socialization and enrichment. I’ve cared for playful puppies, tiny kittens, and sweet seniors, and I’m comfortable giving medication when needed. With my master’s in Applied Psychology, I’m great at reading body language and helping shy or anxious pets feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a cuddly cat or a big, energetic Doberman-sized buddy, I’d love to give your pet lots of attention, patience, and fun. Your furry family member will be in great hands! I work two part-time jobs, so my schedule is very flexible, and I can easily make time for morning walks, midday visits, evening feeding, or last-minute requests. I’m happy to keep a consistent routine for your pet, whether that’s a daily walk, regular check-ins, or a few days of sitting while you’re away. Just let me know what works for you, and I’ll make it happen! I will give each pet plenty of attention, whether that means playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, while also respecting their boundaries and personality. I will keep food and water fresh, make sure all the windows and doors are secure. I will also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages.

About: I'm gonna be honest and say that I don't have any "professional experience," BUT I have pet sat and house sat for my family members multiple times when they've gone out of town, so I do have something under my belt. I have also been surrounded by a number of both cats and dogs since I was a baby, which I have had the pleasure of taking care of and growing up with. I love animals of every kind, even the mean ones, and I would love to love yours too. I'm currently a full-time student, but half of my schedule is online, which frees up a lot of my time to take care of sweet fluffy babies! (Which is what I'd rather be doing anyway, so...) Whatever is most comfortable for you and your pets is what I will roll with. I am not in the business of messing up any routines, so you just let me know exactly what you want done for your pet and it'll happen. Boom.

“Susi continues to provide thorough and loving care to Chancellor. She bought him a ball, trains him with various walking techniques and works on difficult behaviors he has during play. I could not be more grateful for Susi coming into our lives! It feels good to have your animal in the care of someone you trust.”

About: I have owned pets my whole life and have a passion for taking care of furry friends! I began sitting for friends and neighbors when I was really young and grew up helping my grandmother and aunt who both ran their own doggy daycare and sitting businesses. I am well versed in dog walking, stopping in to check on pups, and overnight stays. While I am most experienced in smaller to medium sized dogs I have watched over all types of breeds and I am confident in taking care of any dog! I currently have a part time job that only takes up about 6-7 hours a week. I am extremely flexible and available early mornings and late nights. Pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I make sure to create a clean, safe, and comfortable environment to make sure your dog feels at home. I am extremely attentive and take care instructions very seriously. I will always ensure that your dog receives the right amount of supervision, exercise, and affection!

“She has a great positive attitude and handled Hank with minimal instruction. I plan to use Kiara regularly.”

About: I’ve had all types of pet dogs (small, medium, large) that I’ve learned how to take care of. I have been paid to watch and clean family members dogs in the past. I am young so I am able to do more labor. I am able to give dogs oral medication, and have experience using medicinal creams on dogs. I am able to (and love to!) play with dogs to make sure they have fun. I am no squeamish with cleaning up after animal mistakes, and I can care for multiple dogs as once including puppies and seniors! I’m soon to be enrolled in college full time. I can care for pets over weekends for the full day, and Friday’s after 10 am!! Until school starts though, (August 9th) I am free every day at every time!! If needed, I can watch animals at my mom’s house which has a nice, fenced backyard to play in along with 3 others dogs and 2 cats. (Will mention, one cat is more fiesty with other animals, but i will be putting her in a separate space, and the most she could do is claw) I don’t think I would recommend my mom’s home for seniors or puppies due to an overstimulating environment and a 5 year old.

About: I’ve had my Maltipoo since I was 12 and he’s been with me through every thing even college so I understand the difficulty of finding someone you trust to watch your fur babies. He doesn’t have any eyes and hasn’t for the last 4 years so that’s an added challenge and I want to be able to provide others with quality dog watching they can trust just like I look for when hiring someone for my dog. I’ve been dog sitting for about 10 years and can provide references. I’ve been flown to different states to house and dog sit for families because they knew they could trust me. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule so it makes it easy to provide care for different schedules and needs! I have a fenced yard with a pool and considering my dog can’t see I’m typically supervising outside time and my other dog is very anxious to be alone so I am used to being there when pets are outside. My home is dog friendly considering I have 2 dogs myself, one small dog and one medium dog. Both dogs get along well with people and other dogs and have had dogs stay with us and we haven’t had issues yet!

About: I have taken care and loved animals for my entire life. I had an 18 year old pomeranian yorkie that i took care of until he passed, so I have experience with senior dogs. I also frequently take care of my friends and families puppies so I am used to handling training puppies. I work a traditional 9-5 job, but I am able to do drop in visits or board over the weekend. I do not currently have a dog, so it gives me freedom to bring dogs in to my household. I am a very passionate and attentive caretaker. I make sure I am well equipped so that the animals have a great experience staying in my home.

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life and have been dog sitting for family and friends since my junior year of high school. I have experience with both large breeds, like German Shepherds, and small dogs. I’ve done everything from short check-ins while owners are at work to week-long stays. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who truly cares, and I treat every dog I watch with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m currently a student at Arizona State University with classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Outside of that, I have a flexible schedule and can adjust my routine to accommodate pet care. On weekends, I usually work on school assignments, which I’m able to do from anywhere, allowing me to provide attentive and consistent care. I currently provide pet care in my client’s home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any household routines. I prioritize safety by keeping doors secured, monitoring pets closely during walks, and maintaining a clean, calm space. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

“Ariel is great and I feel good about leaving my dog in her hands. She responds to all requests and is flexible to any changes. Definitely would recommend.”

About: I have been caring for dogs since my sophomore year of high school, gaining experience with everything from training energetic puppies to supporting the unique needs of senior dogs. I am Pet CPR certified, comfortable administering medications, and skilled at providing safe, attentive, and loving care tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I am currently in school and only have in-person classes Monday through Wednesday. This gives me plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the rest of the week, including weekends, to dedicate time to caring for pets and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need. I live in a dog-friendly apartment where pets are welcome and safe, and I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in my home. When visiting clients’ homes, I am always respectful of their space and follow their routines closely. I’m also happy to accommodate extra requests, like watering plants or bringing in mail, to help give peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I have had a dog since I was a child and have cared for all types of dogs, from a mini dachshund to a great dane mix. I have experience with shelters dogs, dogs with anxiety, and service dogs. I currently work from home and do not have a set schedule. I do have family dinners sunday nights and am typically gone around 4 hours but otherwise, I am typically only gone an hour or so every few days. I live in an apartment but love taking the dogs out on long walks every few hours. I have a retired service dog who will keep your dog company.

“Nancy does a wonderful job walking my Lily! She’s 100% on time and is skilled at handling unexpected situations like meeting other dogs along the way. Lily can’t wait to see her again!”

About: I can not think of a single moment in my life where an animal was not present. I have been caring for pets my whole life and that love brought me to my career as a vet tech. I am not only comfortable checking in on pets & walking them but I am extremely proficient in all things animal care when it comes to medical care. I have worked at multiple practices, ranging from Emergency & Critical Care to General Practices to Specialty (Neurology). I am Basic & Advanced Life Support certified. I can safely and efficiently administer medications for all pet needs. I am fluent in Spanish as well. I am free to care for our furry friends 24/7. I care for my own two furbabies but aspire to be a bridge between pet owners and pet care. I treat and care for animals as my own, because how you do something and how well you do it matters. I make sure I follow instructions very carefully to ensure a safe and happy reunification of pets and their owners.

About: I’ve been rescuing animals all of my life and I love doing so . There’s nothing better than being able to nurture such beautiful creatures . I don’t work so I have nothing but time and an open schedule for any one that needs it . Your word will actually be catered too I treat them just like they are my own pets with nothing but love cuddles and play time I am a true fur mom and take pride in so !

About: I have had three dogs in my life, two of which I have trained since they were 8 weeks old, and they are truly the best mannered dogs. I have also been pet sitting and dog since I was 13, and have done countless overnight stays, with puppies all the way to senior dogs, and handling and loving the learning and challenges that come with each pup! I am currently a college student who has 3 hours of in person class Tuesday and Thursday but other than that I am pretty widely available for whatever needed and would always make sure a dog I am responsible for is a number one priority! I would definitely honor the requests made by the owner because as a dog owner, I understand how crucial their routine is! I have lengthy experience with crate training, high energy dogs, and the dogs who just want to be loved and sat down with.

“Dani is a truly FANTASTIC dog walker. My little homie liked her right away when they first met. I have found Dani to be very professional and completely reliable. I highly recommend her for care of your pup!”

About: For that “Your experience” section, I’d make it more focused on why someone should trust you as a sitter: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from my dog Spencer, who I had for 11 years, to my one-year-old cat Summit, who I adopted from the Arizona Humane Society. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I could only care for cats because my roommates are comfortable with that.They do take care of themself in a way but I do have school online so it would be easy to watch your cute little fur ball critter! I treat pets with love and understanding. I understand when pets needs to eat and they need to play with their toys. And I enjoy giving them that!
