********* ANNOUNCEMENTS (updated 1/11/24) ********* • I'm back! Prices reduced! Hosting DOGS & CATS • Leash training w/boarding or not; dogs AND some cats - contact for details • Housebroken pets only please ------> Inquire about additional leash training services ********* HISTORY & EXPERIENCE ********* I've been hosting dogs 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 do not have any pets of my own right now. I have experience caring for pets with all kinds of medical conditions, disabilities, and behavioral problems, and am comfortable/experienced administering oral and/or injectable medications. I've always had an ability to earn the trust of even the most "difficult" cats and dogs. I've spent time volunteering with rescue organizations around the valley, working with a variety of breeds and personalities. I know your fur babies will be comfortable and happy regardless of their circumstances or background. ********* MY HOME & LOCATION ********* I work from my North Tempe townhouse near Papago Park, a quiet, safe, and 'dog-friendly' neighborhood not far from the airport. I don't have children or roommates, just an extremely friendly black cat named Fang, who is leash trained and absolutely loves canine & feline playmates. It is an ideal environment for seniors, special needs dogs, or those with anxiety or socialization issues. Take your next vacation with peace of mind; knowing your pooch is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention and playtime! Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions you might have about my home, experience, or schedule.
Reviews
Mink was in wonderful hands with Adam and Fang! They were very patient, welcoming hosts and it looked like all 3 of them had a wonderful time together. Adam sent us multiple videos every day which we really appreciated. Leaving Mink during trips is never easy, but we felt confident he was well cared for at Adam's house. Thank you Adam and Fang!
Adam did an amazing job with our boy Chance, very attentive, constant updates, and came back looking like he had lots of fun. Chance will be back to stay with him again!!
Adam is great - genuine animal lover who takes the time to know your pet and make sure you’re comfortable.
Adam is very attentive and caring. I could tell my lil guy was well cared for and comfortable by the videos Adam sent daily. Adam helped me feel confident about leaving Shifu by having a meet and greet and asking all lot of detailed questions. I will def use again.

I work from home out of my North Tempe townhouse near Papago Park, a quiet, safe, and 'dog-friendly' neighborhood close to the airport & several dog parks. I have a fenced-in backyard with a doggy-door for on-demand potty breaks, but walking schedule is dictated by the owner, otherwise will usually be early morning, lunchtime, early evening, and sometimes one more short one before bedtime.
