Dog Sitting in Gold Canyon

About: Please note: there is a glitch in the Rover platform in terms of star ratings. Support is working on it. I have an excellent history and will take great care of your pet. Please contact Rover support for clarification as they work on resolving that issue. I've always been a huge dog lover! In addition to helping pet sit for friends and family, I’ve been lucky enough to take in four foster pups of my own. Unfortunately, I lost three of them in the past few years, which has only made me want to spend even more time with dogs. In lieu of getting more of my own, I decided that I want to be of service to the animals and their owners. I’ve always enjoyed the experience and I’m happy to help out other owners and pooches in need. Over the years, I've cared for dozens of dogs and have rescued four. My last of the four is Gizzy, a little Shitzu. I take him with me to work and out and about. He's my little buddy! I love having a connection with dogs, and Gizzy and I have definitely fused a very strong bond between us. He is very friendly and loves other pups, so your pooch will always have a friend around. Making sure that both you and your pup feel completely comfortable and well taken care of us my number one goal. I always make sure to treat you and your pup with the utmost respect. During a stay, I’ll make sure to keep in daily contact by way of text and picture messages so you can know exactly how your pup is getting along and what we’ve done that day. I’ll treat them as if they were my own! I’ll keep your dog on a schedule as close to what they’re used to as possible. We’ll play with their favorite toys. They can sleep with me and will get a lot of snuggles and pets from me. I don’t have any breed restrictions, but I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet for new clients. I always try to get to a dog’s level and make them feel as comfortable as possible with me by letting them smell my hand, finding their favorite scratch spot, using a soft, fun voice to talk to them, and letting them take their time to get used to me.

“Camdyn is the sitter we always use for our kitty and she always does a great job! She is super reliable and I never worry about him when she’s stopping by. Our cat loves her and she shows him lots of love!”

About: I am a Veterinary Technician student at MCC. They cover hospital care as well as care at home. I also grew up around cats and dogs. I go to school full-time and work as a courtesy clerk at Safeway part-time. I can discuss with you around my schedule to ensure your furbaby's happiness. I can make your furbaby feel safe in their home with snuggles and play with their toys. I am also willing to walk pets too.

About: We’ve been around dogs for many years and currently have two dogs of our own, so I understand how important it is to keep their routine consistent and help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Since I’m home and have a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, supervision, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I know how much peace of mind matters when leaving your pet with someone else, so I also make sure to keep pet parents updated with photos and communication during their stay. I’m a stay-at-home mom, and my husband also works from home, so there’s almost always someone here with the dogs. We take them on walks in the morning and again later in the afternoon or evening, and I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks in our side yard as needed. Dogs staying with us will get supervision, playtime, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. Your dog’s comfort and safety are really important to us. Our home is, pet-friendly, and fully supervised since I’m home most of the day and my husband also works from home. We have a fenced side yard for potty breaks and outdoor time, plus a nearby enclosed dog park for walks and play. If we're not able to supervise them and if needed, we can keep them safe and separated in a crate or dog gates. We try to follow each dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, crate time, medications, or just giving them space to relax. We also send photo updates throughout their stay so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have extensive experience caring for animals of all kinds, grooming professionally for several years, training working dogs and caring for my own companions. I am able to attend to needs ranging from puppies to seniors and everything in between! I am able to accommodate most dog schedules! They are out and playing during the day and can be fed on whatever schedule fits their lifestyle! I have a fenced in yard, dog door, and plenty of dogs in every shape and size for your pup to play with! I can crate as needed, potty as needed, and treats are always on deck.

“Michelle is awesome! Responsive and caring.”

About: In simple words… I love animals! I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life, I spent a significant amount of time on my grandparents farm, and my grandfather bred Clydesdale horses. Needless to say I’ve been around animals for many years. I have owned and successfully trained my dogs (I have owned small/medium/large breeds) so if training is something you are interested in looking into please feel free to discuss with me. This being said I am not a “professional” trainer so I would lean towards this type of service with puppy/younger dogs. My last dog Blue, a 98lb. Catahoula/Pit Mix had medical issues his whole life, needed to be on medication four times a day so I am very comfortable with administering medication, and quite empathetic to any/all needs. Blue passed a year ago so I welcome the temporary void with your sweet baby! I work from home so my schedule is very open to caring for your pet, and they will receive quiet a lot of attention/love/affection! Weekends are typically open as well, this is all dependent upon my schedule. I have a fenced in backyard, do not own any animals at the moment, and no kids. I am open to staying in your home depending upon a short meet and greet, and flexibility of my schedule. I have one stipulation about dogs staying in my home: With all due respect, if your animal has a strong oder or sheds a lot I do not wish to have them stay in my house. Also, I do not have a crate/kennel so you will need to provide if this is needed for your animal.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for basically my entire life. I am a certified vet tech and have been dog grooming for 5+ years. I only work a couple hours a day from home typically so someone is always home with your babies for whatever they may want or need. I take care of your pets as if they were my own. Loving on them and making them feel safe in my home while they’re here.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with a deep appreciation for the joy and companionship pets bring. Although I don’t currently have any pets of my own due to rental restrictions, my heart is full of love for dogs. I previously cared for two wonderful cocker spaniels who lived long, happy lives and are now over the rainbow bridge. During their golden years, they developed special needs, including blindness and deafness. This experience gave me valuable skills in caring for senior dogs and administering medications, including eye drops. I’m comfortable and confident providing compassionate care to dogs with unique requirements. Offering my services on Rover allows me to share my love for animals and connect with your beloved pets. I look forward to giving them the same love and attention I gave my own furbabies. Caring for dogs truly fills my heart. 💛 I work full-time with a hybrid schedule, spending two days at home and three days in the office, which is just 15 minutes away. This allows me to provide support during the day, like letting your furry family member out or checking in as needed. My weekends vary, but I’m happy to coordinate with you to accommodate your needs—whether it’s daytime visits, evening care, overnight stays, or anything in between. Just reach out, and we can find a schedule that works for both of us! Offering loving and reliable in-home care for your pets to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll provide the same care and attention as if they were my own.

“Being new to AZ I had no idea about this type of animal service. We have requested Zoe since day one when we needed someone in November 2024 and she has been amazing every time. Great communication! Zoe takes great care of Zeus and he loves her care and company. Absolutely worth it!!”

About: Hi! My name is Ryley, and I recently completed my bachelor’s degree and am currently in a radiologic technology program in Phoenix. I’m looking to do pet care on the side because I genuinely love animals and understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I’ve volunteered at multiple shelters, including the Humane Society, and have taken animal caretaking courses in the past. I have three dogs of my own, so daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of love are already part of my routine. I’m reliable, organized, very clean, and always on time. I currently have availability Wednesday through Sunday and offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and pet sitting. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member, so I always prioritize safety, communication, and making your pet feel comfortable and cared for. I would love to answer any questions and meet you and your furry friends soon!

“Dj and his wife Lori were an absolute godsend dropping in and walking Princess. She is new to our home and learning to be more secure while we are at work. They are both extremely professional, caring, and provided us with reassurance and pictures. They even dealt with Princess breaking down her kennel door and rigged it so she couldn’t escape again. Thanks for helping out two nervous pet parents!”

As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I am a bartender 3 nights a week so I have plenty of extra time during the day for walks, play time & potty breaks.

About: I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin. We had dogs, cats, and all sorts of animals. I love my pup and will take great care of yours. I am available on weekends and late afternoons / evenings. I have a full time job, 7 to 4, so would have to work around that for home sitting.

About: I grew up with dogs and by 10 was their primary care giver. I later lived with 3 cats and was the primary care giver as well. I've had all sorts of pets ranging from hermit crabs, to hamsters, rabbits, birds, lizards, and fish. But I can't imagine my life without a dog. Please let me help you with your pet care needs.

When visiting your pets, I will respect your home and wishes. I have no objections to security cameras. I am prepared to play, feed, and clean up after your pets as they need.

About: I thought that joining Rover.com would be a good idea now that it is summer and I have plenty of time. I have been dog and house sitting for some friends a few times throughout the past year and it went well. My friends had labradoodles, a golden retriever, mixed dogs, puppies, and a bird. I would be available most of the day to keep your pets company for doggy day-time. Dog-boarding I have done before for my friends dogs so I think I would be alright at it. Most of the time dogs would sleep in the bedrooms with me but whatever is preferred will be fine. Thank you for taking the time to read my little "About Me" section! Please feel free to message me or see my reviews on TrustedHouseSitters. I am looking for more flexible work and Rover.com is perfect for that. I love fur babies so it makes working easier too! I have time most days to fill up with taking care of pets! I provide a safe and loving environment. Ensuring pets feel safe and happy!! Taking on walks, playing, and pets! Please message for more questions! Thanks:)

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was four years old, starting with my first family pet, a lovable Yorkie, followed by a playful Poodle.
