Doggy Day Care In Ironwood Ridge

About: I've loved dogs my whole life! When I was born my mom had a chocolate lab and a doberman. Then my dad got a rescue pitbull and a husky mix. Right now my family has a mini golden doodle who's been with us for 14 years and a mini Aussie doodle. I also have a pitbull mix named nova! She's two years old. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me! I just graduated esthetician school and I’m currently starting my business. Everything I make on rover goes towards my career! Im currently starting my entrepreneurial journey. Right now I’m a full time pet care giver. I also work a weekend night job. I do not have a set schedule so I have open availability. I prefer to care for pets in my home but I’m always happy to accommodate whatever the client needs. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play and accessible paths for walks. During sittings I make sure to not only take great care of the pet but the clients home as well.

“Fantastic Sitter! Safe quiet neighborhood to walk dogs around. Annie was very kind and attentive to my dogs special requests. They had a great time playing ball together!”

About: I've had dogs most of my life. First was Lance, a Springer Spaniel, when i was 4-yrs old. Add German Shorthair Pointers, Weimeraners, Labs, both English and Anerican Cocker Spaniels, terrier mix breeds and my current pup is a Long Hair Chihuahua. Most of my dogs have been shelter rescues. Also, I foster dogs for local shelters. I am retired and spend most of my time at home working in my new garden reading, or crafting. When we have dog guests, our time is devoted primarily to our visitors. Human away time rarely exceeds 4-hrs per day. I have a large fenced yard to run and play in whenever they want Chewy, the Chihuahua, is a friendly companion. Indoors is a dog-friendly/dog priority 3-bdrm home. Plenty of space if a visitor needs some quiet privacy or a mim with pups wants separation. Daily walks add to our exercise regime. Balls, frisbees and dogs are shared. Treats abound!

About: I currently work from home and am available for all of your dogs needs from companionship, stimulation and bathroom breaks. I pride myself on being available to the dogs and a present pet parent. I work from home and your pet will be included in my day to day activities as if it were my own. I am very attentive caring and sensitive to the needs of my pets which in turn will make me sensitive to the needs of your pet. The pets in my home are cared for as family, they get free reign of the house, they have full access to my back yard and they are not left alone in the back yard.

“Barbara was so kind and easy to work with. She sent pictures and updates of our pup throughout his stay which made me feel relaxed knowing he was safe and having a good time. He got play time and walks and was tuckered out when he got home. It was clear Barbara enjoys what she is doing, which really makes a difference. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Thank you Beth for watching Nellie for the day! She loved meeting all the dogs, chickens, and goats. When we picked her up she was asleep in the car within 2 minutes. Highly recommend Beth and we will definitely reach out next time we’re in Tucson!”

About: I have lots of experience with dogs and cats. Throughout my childhood animals were my escape from reality. My dad bred dogs and I always loved them so much it was hard to say goodbye. In high school I took in a stray cat and it kept getting pregnant so I raised like 5 litters of kittens as well. To be honest I like animals more than people your babies are in good hands. I like to walk and get my steps in everyday so it won’t be much different walking with the doggos. I have dog and catsit for close friends and family but never strangers. Excited to do it! I work from home and my job is very flexible. I am my own boss so I can pretty much take breaks whenever I need to take your fur baby on walks or feed them as well as give them lots of attention when needed. My availability is very open and I love all animals. Since I work from home I’ll always be here to make sure your animal is well cared for and happy. I also go on multiple walks daily anyways to try and stay active so its perfect!!

“So incredibly grateful for finding you, Christie! (And Daniel too!🙂). Christie, your skills with dogs who are not accustomed to being around other dogs is truly remarkable! I told my husband you are a dog whisperer. Thank you for giving us a home we feel comfortable leaving Lucy & Lily when we go on vacations. With gratitude, Trish & Mic ❤️”

About: Growing up on a farm taught me how to truly understand animals. I learned to read their body language, notice subtle changes in their health, and provide deeply patient care. This background sets me apart from other sitters. I have firsthand experience caring for animals of all life stages, from training high-energy puppies to managing the delicate needs of senior pets. My farm upbringing instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility and a genuine, natural bond with animals. Your pets will receive dedicated, intuitive care that treats them like family I'm currently working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for sitting in your home on weekends, and weekdays I provide pet care exclusively inside your home. Because I live in a shared community household with a roommate, I do not host pets in my own space. This ensures your pets stay in their familiar environment where they feel safest. follow your exact feeding, medication, and bathroom schedules to keep your pet's day predictable. I keep your home clean, secure, and exactly how you left it.Your pets get undivided attention, plenty of playtime, and cozy companionship without the stress of a busy environment.

About: My professional RN background will allow me to take good care of your pup. I’m active and love a dog at my side. Call me. I’m retired and lost my sweet girl in Feb. I have so much love and attention to share with your dog when you can’t be there with him/her. Small, fenced yard and lots of desert “green space”all around my neighborhood. I walk daily and prefer outdoors to indoors. I appreciate good behavior. 💕

“We think that Willow enjoyed her time with Sylvie and the other pups! She was calm and happy on the way home, not whiny and upset like when we picked her up from her other daycare facility.”

“Brittani met Rose with enthusiasm and joy! By the end of the day, Rose was pleasantly exhausted! She had a great day with the other pups! Brittani is highly recommended!!”

About: When I moved into my house in 2018, one of my first priorities was to get a dog. Recently, Addie, who spent the past 7 years with me, had to be put down unexpectedly. I miss her a ton, and I would love to open my home to another dog (the yard just calls out for it), but I am unable to adopt at the moment for logistical/financial reasons. I would love for your pets and I to keep each other company while I work from home during the day! I am a diligent and reliable person who works remotely as a paralegal, so I always need excuses (whether walks, play, food, snuggles, or just potty breaks) to get up from my desk and move at intervals throughout the work day. I love animals of all kinds - in addition to my own dog, I can submit my friends' pets as references (Mildred the cat likes me better than her owner's wife, and Maggie the dog is obsessed with me while spurning every other friend her owners have). I'm also a birdwatcher and a huge fan of all the wildlife in my yard, from bunnies to lizards. My dog training and medical/senior pet care skills are limited, but I am open to learning and strongly attentive to detail - I will be sure to give your pet what they need. I work from home during the week, with approximate hours of 7 am - 4 pm M-F. On Tuesdays I have appointments in the afternoons, so I will not be available for day care that day. Weekend availability will depend on my plans. I don't have any pets at home currently. I have a screened-in patio with a dog door leading to the fenced-in backyard. When the weather is nice (not too hot), I like to work in the patio. The yard backs onto a wash, so there is a lot of wildlife in the area. Javelinas and coyotes frequent the area but cannot get into the yard. I have seen two rattlesnakes in the yard in 7 years of living here. I would not leave small/medium dogs or cats outside unsupervised. If you give permission, I would feel comfortable leaving large dogs who are snake trained outside while I'm in the house (as I often did with my 80 lb golden doodle).
