“Sibel was absolutely amazing with our shy cat! She sent plenty of pictures and videos showing how loving she was to him. She went over and beyond with her care for him. He is a timid cat, but warmed up so quickly to her. She is truly the sitter EVERY cat deserves. Thank you so much, Sibel!”

“Kendall was a great pet sitter. She was promptly responsive, she was careful and detail oriented in caring for my cats, provided helpful updates about my cats and home, and I would recommend her!”

“Emma did a great job watching our cat, Jinxy, over the Thanksgiving holiday. I enlisted her services for twice a day check in which she even did on Thanksgiving day! Emma was very reliable and provided the services I need needed for our little cat Jinxy.”

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of animals my whole life, in all shapes and sizes! When I moved to the city for school, lots of people asked me to pet sit and I loved it so much I hope to continue! I just moved to the Phoenix area and I can’t wait to meet new customers (and their owners 😉). Currently my schedule is completely flexible and I can accommodate any needs, even very short notice! Feel free to reach out day of and we can make it work! I’m happy to follow any routines you have with your animals! Since my schedule is so flexible, I’m comfortable feeding or walking morning, noon, or night. I’m also comfortable delivering medication.
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was five, and caring for them is second nature to me. What sets me apart is the range of hands-on experience I bring: from energetic young puppies who need consistency and patience, to senior pets who require gentle care and attention. Whether your pet needs playtime, a peaceful walk, or specialized support, I’m here to provide thoughtful, loving care just like they’re my own. Working remotely allows me to be fully present and flexible with pet care throughout the day. Whether it’s stopping by for a midday walk, feeding time, litter box cleanups, or just giving your pet some extra attention and companionship, I’m able to work around their schedule—not the other way around. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet won’t be left waiting long for care or cuddles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I take the time to understand your pet’s schedule, habits, and preferences, whether that means specific feeding times, walk routines, medication, or favorite toys and hiding spots. I treat every home with respect and maintain a clean, calm environment so your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or an extended stay, I’m there to give your pet the love and attention they’re used to, just like you would.
“Rene and I were talking to each other in the car on the way home from Las Vegas this past weekend, "how lucky we were to have you". Totally trust this guy like no one else he's the best! Karrie Frattari”

“I so appreciated Jinifer's drop in visits to look in on and give Kitty Kaley some food and some love. I could not have been more pleased, and very much appreciated the pictures. I recomme d Jinifer highly! work is high quality and reliable!! ++++++++”
“Michelle was great with Peppar, I could tell he was very happy and content with how Michelle provided for him and nurtured him, almost as if Peppar was her own pet. Cannot recommend highly enough!”

“Gwyn did an outstanding job caring for our 2 🐈, 2 🐢 and bearded dragon 🐉 while we are away. Everything went exactly as planned and communication was great while we were away.”
“I can’t recommend Maddie highly enough! She stepped in at the last minute over the Christmas holiday when I had a family emergency, and she was absolutely fantastic. Maddie took amazing care of my two cats, Isabella and Coco. Coco is notoriously shy and has always hidden from previous sitters, but Maddie worked her magic and managed to coax her out—something no one else has been able to do! She made sure both cats ate well, stayed happy, and received plenty of attention. Maddie also kept me updated with daily videos and photos, which gave me such peace of mind during a stressful time. Maddie is a true professional and clearly loves animals. I feel so lucky to have found her and will definitely be booking her again!”

“Andrew and Sophia are wonderful dog sitters! Pinion needed drop-in visits when I returned to work, and they were fantastic with him. They are true dog listeners and took the time to understand his needs. I received daily visit reports with pictures, and they even surprised me with a sweet rhyming poem about Pinion. They truly went above and beyond for my little guy!”

“Carey is amazing. Extremely responsive & responsible. She sent us text updates & photos a couple times a day, helping with the extreme anxiety of leaving our elder Persian baby. Without a doubt, we highly recommend her. Her love of animals & caring for them comes through. We will definitely use her again.”

“Sydney is amazing!!!! She took such great care of our 3 cats and even made an extra trip to check on them when a couple of them did not want to come out of hiding. ? We will definitely continue to hire her!!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life (from puppies to senior dogs) I understand what their needs are in terms of play, affection, medication, specific care required and correction. Always respectful, playful, & understanding these babes are God’s gift to us!🌺 I own a home. I enjoy taking my dog to the dog park. I’m presently not working so I have time specifically on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and most of Sundays. It’s probably best to connect so that we can ensure there is a mutual fit. I can do drop ins for large dogs Housesitting for all dogs and cats. Presently exercise would be taking them to the dog park. I have a fenced yard. I request your dog be presently vaccinated. I do have 1 friendly German Shepherd who loves dog company ( she has been around 20 lb dogs to 75 pound dogs.
About: I have been taking care of pets since before I could remember. I believe that pets are what make the world go round, and always strive to make them as happy as can be! I have a small, calm dog and cat here in Arizona, and two large, crazy dogs back in Maine. I definitely understand how both ends of the spectrum can be! All my pets have made it from early puppy, to late senior so I understand the vital importance and factors of taking care of a youthful/elderly pet. I am only working part-time at the moment so taking care of your pets on the weekend is not a problem for me! I also work early mornings so I am free in the afternoons/evenings during the week for all services except overnight stay! MY HOUSE: I have a small, calm/friendly dog that would love to keep your furry friend company. He can be locked away in a separate area of the house if needed! I also have a small, calm/friendly cat but she will be locked away for all visitations/overnights because she gets scared easily. I have a beautiful fenced in backyard with a pool and fake grass. All pet waste gets cleaned up so it’s always hygienic. I will take your dog for a long walk 2 times per day. I will follow your desired feeding/play schedule and administer any medicine if needed. YOUR HOUSE: I will do all the same as listed above! If you have no fenced backyard, I will take your dog on multiple walks a day to get their energy out. I will also follow any crate training instructions if desired.
