Dog Walking Marilyn Ann

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I am extremely flexible since I am in a hybrid program for classes, so all of my didactic/classroom work is fully online and accessible from anywhere and anytime! I do work Friday mornings from 8am-12pm and may not be available some weekends since I work every third weekend minimum. Otherwise, I’m completely flexible and will always try to work with you! I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.

“Kaitlyn has been so wonderful! She gives so much attention and belly rubs to my fur ball and I always know she's well taken care of on her walks. I will definitely book again!”

About: I am a volunteer at a local animal shelter and am trained to handle the dogs in our care and give them all the loving I can! I would love to spend some more time with your furry friends and give them all the love when they are in my hands. I am available all weekdays to provide the care you need for your four legged friends. I would love for your pups to join me on some long walks or hikes here in The Valley during the week and get those little legs some extra exercise. If you have any questions don't hesitate to shoot me a message. I look forward to meeting your four legged friends. I can't promise I won't fall in love with them!

“Susi continues to provide thorough and loving care to Chancellor. She bought him a ball, trains him with various walking techniques and works on difficult behaviors he has during play. I could not be more grateful for Susi coming into our lives! It feels good to have your animal in the care of someone you trust.”

“Ashley arrived promptly and followed all instructions getting into the apartment for my 14 year old madam Biba … Biba would take Ashley for her walk and Ashley was lovely to be patient, Ashley also sent photos everyday of Biba loving her early morning walks. I highly recommend her and will be using her when we get back after the summer break.”

“Bella was simply wonderful. From booking through her walk and hang with Rex, she was very communicative. Her summary notes were very thorough and she provided great insight into my little guy. I would 100% book again.”

About: I have had numerous dogs since I was little ranging in all different sizes and breeds! I have experience with puppies to senior dogs and want to make you feel the most comfortable while you are out and about! I go to college out at ASU and work but I am flexible and can work around to make sure I am there for you and your pet! I will take very good care of your animals and make sure to give them cuddles and love. I will make sure that the house will be kept clean and tidy up while I am there so if you leave in a hurry you can come back to a spotless house and a happy pet.

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life and have been dog sitting for family and friends since my junior year of high school. I have experience with both large breeds, like German Shepherds, and small dogs. I’ve done everything from short check-ins while owners are at work to week-long stays. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who truly cares, and I treat every dog I watch with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m currently a student at Arizona State University with classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Outside of that, I have a flexible schedule and can adjust my routine to accommodate pet care. On weekends, I usually work on school assignments, which I’m able to do from anywhere, allowing me to provide attentive and consistent care. I currently provide pet care in my client’s home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any household routines. I prioritize safety by keeping doors secured, monitoring pets closely during walks, and maintaining a clean, calm space. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

“Elizabeth was a huge help and Calvin really appreciated the time spent with her. Thanks!”

About: Have a bumper sticker that says "I'd rather be at the dog park" I enjoy the company of dogs and cats simply because they appreciate anything you do for them. Hard to say no to a wagging tail. At 14 years old I applied and was hired over college applicants to work part time at a vet clinic in Chandler. It was basically maintaining cleanliness of the clinic. Exam rooms, kennels and as a bonus I also got to participate in puppy School. After my task were finished id spend an hour or so comforting the animals that weren't going to make it. Most of them would effortlessly wag their tail while I was petting them until the found the light. I believe I truly became dogs best friends during this time I my life. Walking dogs gives me that same feeling of caring for my furry buddies and buddests in this ever so uncompassionate world we live in. Im able to relate to pets by a simple golden rule that I was taught by mom growing up on treating people. Treat someone how you want to be treated.

“Extremely friendly, caring, thorough walkers. Will absolutely be using them for recurrent services and would highly recommend them to anyone else.”

“Ariel did a great job walking my pup when I had to be gone for most of the day! She was punctual, and very sweet with him. I would use her again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs since my sophomore year of high school, gaining experience with everything from training energetic puppies to supporting the unique needs of senior dogs. I am Pet CPR certified, comfortable administering medications, and skilled at providing safe, attentive, and loving care tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I am currently in school and only have in-person classes Monday through Wednesday. This gives me plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the rest of the week, including weekends, to dedicate time to caring for pets and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need. I live in a dog-friendly apartment where pets are welcome and safe, and I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in my home. When visiting clients’ homes, I am always respectful of their space and follow their routines closely. I’m also happy to accommodate extra requests, like watering plants or bringing in mail, to help give peace of mind while they’re away.

About: Hi! I'm Mckenna, a junior at Arizona State University studying Sports Business. When I'm not in class, playing on ASU's club soccer team, or working at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, I love spending time outside—and I think every walk is better with a dog by your side! I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I taught my childhood dog several tricks and would take him on daily walks whenever I was home. Over the years, I've also cared for many friends' and family's dogs and cats, giving me experience with pets of different personalities and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, quick potty breaks, a leisurely stroll, or an outdoor adventure, I'm happy to match their pace and routine. I know every pet is different, so I'll always follow your instructions carefully to make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. I'm also comfortable administering medication if needed. I currently offer dog walking and occasional pet sitting. While I don't have much experience with senior dogs yet, I'm more than happy to care for them and will carefully follow any instructions to make sure they get the attention and support they need. As a busy college student, I enjoy having something active and rewarding to break up my routine, and spending time with animals is the perfect way to do that. I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention during our time together, and you can always expect photo updates so you know they're having a great time! I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! As a junior at Arizona State University, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for pets. I only have classes Monday through Wednesday, work two to three evening a week at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, and practice with ASU's club soccer team a few times a week. This leaves me with lots of availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and occasional pet sitting. I enjoy getting outside and staying active, so spending time with pets fits perfectly into my weekly routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. When caring for pets in your home, I'll treat both your pet and your home with respect, making sure everything is secure before I leave. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the attention and care they deserve.

About: I can not think of a single moment in my life where an animal was not present. I have been caring for pets my whole life and that love brought me to my career as a vet tech. I am not only comfortable checking in on pets & walking them but I am extremely proficient in all things animal care when it comes to medical care. I have worked at multiple practices, ranging from Emergency & Critical Care to General Practices to Specialty (Neurology). I am Basic & Advanced Life Support certified. I can safely and efficiently administer medications for all pet needs. I am fluent in Spanish as well. I am free to care for our furry friends 24/7. I care for my own two furbabies but aspire to be a bridge between pet owners and pet care. I treat and care for animals as my own, because how you do something and how well you do it matters. I make sure I follow instructions very carefully to ensure a safe and happy reunification of pets and their owners.

About: I've been hosting dogs & cats through Rover.com for several years now, and it's been a tremendously rewarding experience. While I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, I have only 2 cats right now. They both like dogs, especially my leash-trained therapy cat who likes everybody. The cats are never aggressive, but a very high-energy impolite dog could get a left-hook if they're not careful. Calmer dogs used to cats are a great fit. Take your next vacation with peace of mind; knowing your pooch is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention and playtime! I have yet to have a guest that didn’t bond to me almost immediately…it’s like they can sense that I am an easy source of belly rubs and treats! While I have plenty of amateur training experience with dogs and cats, I am in the process of earning a "Good Pup" training certification through Rover, so for a limited time am offering some basic obedience training with boarding or daycare. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions you might have about my home, experience, or schedule. I work from my home office during the week, and extra canine/feline company is always welcomed. I have a small fenced-in yard for potty breaks whenever the need arises. There's usually no problem accommodating specific daily feeding/walk schedules with some advance notice. Your furry children will be very comfortable in my North Tempe town-home, where I live alone in a conveniently located 'dog-friendly' neighborhood near Papago Park. Many of my guests drop off and pick up on the way to/from Sky Harbor Airport, which is about 15 minutes away (about 5.5 miles). I'm within walking distance of the local dog park, if that's something you & your dog are comfortable with.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. My grandmother has trained golden retrievers year after year in things like search and rescue, and agility ever since I can remember. I've participated in the trainings as a kid, and that's when I first fell in love with animals. I can check in with your pet while you are away, and spend time with them in your absence. I can feed, exercise, and do whatever it takes to keep your pet happy while you are away. I've been using Rover for a decade now, and I love it. I'm an easy-going person who loves hiking and a good Netflix show when I'm not at work or working with Rover. I've lived in Arizona for over seven years, and I love exploring and making new animal friends. I love spending time with animals, so caring for other’s’ fits into my routine perfectly! I currently work 7-4pm in Scottsdale, so I am able to pet/house sit around those hours. I am an early morning person and I have no problem getting up early to play with you pet(s) prior to going in to work! I provide a loving an nuturing environment for your pet while you are away. When your pet is in my care, they will feel comfortable, safe, and happy.

About: I have had three dogs in my life, two of which I have trained since they were 8 weeks old, and they are truly the best mannered dogs. I have also been pet sitting and dog since I was 13, and have done countless overnight stays, with puppies all the way to senior dogs, and handling and loving the learning and challenges that come with each pup! I am currently a college student who has 3 hours of in person class Tuesday and Thursday but other than that I am pretty widely available for whatever needed and would always make sure a dog I am responsible for is a number one priority! I would definitely honor the requests made by the owner because as a dog owner, I understand how crucial their routine is! I have lengthy experience with crate training, high energy dogs, and the dogs who just want to be loved and sat down with.
