Shanae came and met our dog before she came to do a few drop in visits. She interacted well with him, and he can be hyper. We had no issues with her drop ins and we will use her again! Thanks.

Diana is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had! She is so thoughtful with the pups and goes above and beyond with her care for them. We won’t use anyone else to take care of our pups.

We greatly appreciated Teresa’s flexibility and communication! Georgie tripped off a curb and looked like she may have hurt her paw, Teresa spent the extra time needed to make sure she was ok; we are grateful for that.

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day. My apartment is dog-friendly with a fenced dog park just steps from my door, perfect for playtime and potty breaks. I also have no pets or children, so your dog will have a calm, cozy space all to themselves. My partner, Austin, also works from home and helps me care for the dogs. We’re a team, and your pup will get double the love! Dogs have always been family to me. I’ve grown up with them and have cared for all kinds from playful pups to senior dogs needing daily medication. Whether it’s long walks, fun playtime, or cuddles after a busy day, we treat every dog like our own and do everything we can to make them feel happy, safe, and right at home. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, your pup will get plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular potty breaks, playtime, meals, and walks whenever your dog needs them. I’m here to make sure they feel cared for, comfortable, and companionship. However, because I work from home, I cannot accept dogs that bark or howl indoors for long periods of time. I treat every dog like family, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. My partner and I live in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment with plenty of room to play, plus a fenced dog park just steps away for potty breaks and outdoor fun. We also love taking dogs on walks at Papago Park. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I’m always respectful of your space and will follow your instructions. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, keeping off certain furniture, or special care needs, I’m here to make sure your pup feel safe, comfortable, and well taken care of.

About: I LOVE animals, I have a dog and birds who I have been taking care of since I was a kid. I have experience pet sitting for family and friends, so I am very comfortable taking care of animals. I have always been the type of person who hangs out with the dog instead of people at parties, so spending time with animals makes me genuinely happy! I am looking for a way to make some extra money during the summer while I’m in nursing school, so I am available pretty much every day/ all day the next couple months :) When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I like to make sure they are comfortable, and that they are kept on a similar routine as they normally are. I’ll give them fresh food and water, let them outside, give them attention, and clean up as needed. I also pay attention to any extra instructions given by the owner.

10/10 Experience !! Sophia did such a phenomenal job for the week she watched my kitties- the daily updates was really nice, and the many photos also proved to be such a comfort! My girl cat Ambrosia can be pretty skittish with visitors, and it was such a relief to hear that around day 3, she was warming up quite nicely to Sophia (aka, not running to another room like a rocket lol). I've got some summer trips planned and will definitely be booking again!

Kristi was great! We met her right after we moved to the area and trusted her to take care of our cats while we were gone for ~10 days for our wedding. The cats weren’t as needy or upset when we got home so we know she spent quality time with them which is highly appreciated! She also went at the same time every day which is a bonus ?

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since birth! I love to give attention and love to fur babies, they deserve it all. Spending time with pets is like spending time with family! Getting in some good walks and spending time with animals is beneficial for me too, keeping me in shape both physically and mentally while also helping to take care of some good boys and girls. I always make sure that pets feel safe and cared for by ensuring they have food, water, and the ability to play. I am very diligent in keeping spaces clean and secure as well, and would ensure that doors are locked and nothing dangerous is left out. Since I plan to walk some animals, I think it’s important to note I obey all traffic laws and would ensure the safety of your pet.

Cody did an amazing job taking care of Dakota and made sure she got all of the medication she needed. She seemed happy, healthy, and very well cared for when I got back. He was also great at helping her feel more comfortable and confident around the apartment complex, which I really appreciated. Cody was reliable, attentive, and clearly cares about the pets he works with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

Adrienne was absolutely incredible! Her report cards were so detailed and she sent so many photos of my baby. She was excited to care for my rabbit which is not something everyone would feel comfortable doing. From the photos I could tell Fiona May loved her. She came right up to her and even sat near her. I felt extremely at ease on my trip knowing she was being cared for by Adrienne and already booked with her again! She’s amazing!

We had a great experience with John and would absolutely book with him again. He was incredibly attentive with our cats and clearly took the time to make sure they were comfortable and well cared for while we were away. We really appreciated the thorough daily updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how they were doing throughout our trip. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about our pets and paid close attention to their needs. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring pet sitter.

⭐️⭐️ROYAL ROVER STATUS⭐️⭐️ The Princesses Penny and Poppy would like it formally entered into the royal record that Anthony was an absolute treasure. When I had to leave on a last-minute work trip, Anthony came to attend to them whisker and paw **three whole times in less than 24 hours! As my little sister said **. He was reliable, kind, communicative, and incredibly attentive to their needs. Most impressively, Anthony accomplished what is not easily achieved with my rescue kittens: he got the girls to willingly come to him and even received physical affection. Photographic proof exists, so this was not a rumor, bribery, or wishful thinking. That level of trust says everything. He respected their personalities, made sure they were safe and cared for, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing they were in such good hands made a stressful last-minute trip feel so much easier. Princess’s Poppy and Penny would like it known that Sir Anthony has officially earned the Princesses’ approval and has been promoted to trusted royal caretaker. We will absolutely book him again.

I highly recommend booking with Grace! She was very kind, quick to respond to any messages, and most importantly took great care of our dogs. It’s very evident that Grace loves animals and has a passion for being around them. The biggest ringing endorsement I can give is that one of our dogs does not like most people, but she immediately LOVED and trusted Grace.

Jadon did an amazing job caring for my two cats while I was away. He consistently sent photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel like I could truly trust him with my pets and my home. What stood out the most was seeing how comfortable my cats were with him in the pictures. They're usually selective about people, and it was obvious that they trusted him and felt safe in his care. I would absolutely recommend Jadon to anyone. He’s truly reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy.
