“Tom took wonderful care of our Pup KC on his drop in visit. Our pup KC usually doesn't warm up to some one new right away, but when he met Tom he immediately approved with lots of tail wags and a big smile. .We definitely will be used by Tom in the future to care if our boy. 😀”

“Kendall was the best for my kitties! She took such good care of them, and she kept me updated the entire time with plenty of pictures. I felt at peace knowing my cats were in her care.”

“We have had Breanna watch our pups numerous times and she has done a great job! Some of our requests have been rather last minute & she has come through for us & helped us out. We really appreciate her being there for us & will continue to contact her for further services! We highly recommend Breanna!”

“The absolute best caregiver that my cats have ever had. Sibel took care of my 3 cats, Stripey, Buddy and Tiny Peanut. She would come in and greet them all each visit. She would talk to them and play with them each visit. They took to her right away. Even the two that tend to be slow to warm up to people. She is such a warm and loving person. I had complete peace while I was away. She gave my cats treats, petted them, played with them, talked to them and brushed them. This is the best care they have ever received. I plan to use Sibel for all my cat care going forward if she has availability. They absolutely love her. Sibel is completely trustworthy and followed all of my instructions for my cats. I’m grateful for her great care.”

About: I have been an animal lover all my life. My own dogs have all been my absolute greatest joy. They have turned my care and love for them into a passion for wanting to help care for many pets. I have experience caring for animals with the utmost care for over 20 years but have more specifically been doing a lot of pet sitting for about 10 years. I mainly care for dogs and cats but occasionally care for fish, birds, and reptiles. I will provide a level a care for your animals like I provide for my own. I know what it's like to leave things in the hands of a sitter and I can assure you that the comfort, care, and safety of your animals is my highest concern. I am a good communicator and am happy to keep in touch as much as you feel comfortable with. I am currently available mostly full time to help care for your pets. Nothing makes me happier than taking care of pets! I am more than happy to include walks for dogs (time and weather permitting) with your regular visits. I can do other small tasks you might need help with during visits (time permitting) like bring in mail/packages, water plants, etc. The safety and well-being of your animals is of utmost importance to me. I will care for pets in your home based on your animal's needs. We will set up a free meet & greet ahead of time to meet at your home, go over everything that needs to be done for your pet(s), get emergency contact info, veterinary (emergency only) info, etc. I am very dependable, LOVE taking care of pets, and will help put your mind at ease.
“Emma is the best! We had Emma do 3 drop in visits to check on our precious 3 lb Yorkie, Stella while we attended a concert. She was a great communicator and provided updates and pictures of each visit which gave us peace of mind while we enjoyed our evening out. But most importantly, she loved Stella as if she was her own! And Stella loved her and her daughter right back! Thank you so much!”

“Jeff is a very conscientious and caring dog sitter. One of my dogs needs extra special care with diet and medication. he always gave bear his medication on time and his special feedings. Having him take care of my dogs, added a great piece of mind during my vacation. I plan on using Jeff on a regular basis he is great and reliable”

“Alessandro was great. He took great care of my kitties. I added one more day and he was able to accommodate me and be nice about it. I highly recommend!”

About: I know how to take care of animals that are highly reactive due to my sweet rescue. I was raised around lots of different animals since I was a toddler and often watched on them even as a small child. As I got older and my mother started leaving for weeks for work so I’d watch my dog, cat, and two tree frogs on my own for years. I currently have two dogs and cat I care for that are happy and healthy. I’ve also always participated in neighbor dog walking and frequently volunteer at shelters. I am in school Monday through Thursday but am available early morning and late night those days and can be flexible. Weekend are completely open. I always remain courteous and respectful in other peoples private spaces. A persons home is incredibly private and I would make sure that trust is kept. I will follow your instructions exactly and make sure your pet and you are happy!
“This was the first time ever I have used a pet sitting service, or anybody to care for my dog. I am very particular. my dog is special-needs. She requires supplements and special diet etc.. Brandon did an amazing job he came when he said he was going to be there. He sent me Texas after each visit of what was going on and he always sent 3 to 5 pictures every visit, and it just was so comforting to me that I was able to actually enjoy my trip and not worry about my dog being taken care of well .. I will use Brandon always in the future to care for Sushi and any other pets, I may acquire in the future thank you, Brandon you are terrific. You are so detail oriented and committed to what you do. I really appreciate you!”

“Therese is a rockstar. My senior dog immediately took to her and enjoys her company. She makes sure everything as it should be, and asks questions of anything seems out of place.”

“Andrew and Sophia have been fantastic pet sitter for our dog, Pinion. This was his first time being cared for by someone outside the family, and he’s been adjusting well thanks to their kind and patient approach. They are very communicative and provide prompt, thoughtful updates after each visit—including daily photos, which give us peace of mind and a glimpse into how he’s doing. Their observations have even helped us fine-tune Pinion’s routine to stay consistent with his usual schedule. We’re so grateful for the care and attention they’ve shown. Highly recommend!”

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.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Book. Her. Immediately. Brea took exceptional care of our FELV kiddos, Cecil and Carla, and we truly could not have asked for a better sitter. From day one, her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and downright joyful to read — we looked forward to every check-in. She somehow immediately won over our extremely shy Carla (a true miracle), and Cecil — who is known for avoiding dinner — happily ate the food Brea put out for him like an absolute champ. That alone speaks volumes. Brea has such a natural, intuitive way with animals. She built genuine relationships with our cats, gave them so much love, snuggles, playtime, and reassurance, and treated them as if they were her own. Every update left us feeling calm, confident, and so grateful. We came home to happy, settled, well-loved kitties — the ultimate sign of a fantastic sitter. We cannot wait to book Brea again, and we recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone kind, attentive, and truly special. 💛🐾”

“Our family highly recommends Amanda to take care of your fur baby! Amanda was awesome with our 5 month Goldendoodle puppy! Our Goldendoodle didn’t want her to leave! :) That’s how much he loves her! She quickly responded to our pet sit request. She asked great questions about the care of our puppy. We are definitely booking Amanda again!”

Sibel is amazing! She did such a wonderful job taking care of our sweet old cats while we were out of town. She made sure each one had individualized attention and lots of love, deapite them being shy, and shared lots of pictures with us! All of this made us feel so much better being away from our kitties, especially knowing that they were in loving and attentive hands. We would love to have Sibel as our pet sitter any time!
