Pet care experience

I'll love your dogs like my own!

I've had pets all my life. I love adopting rescues. I currently have two pups - a Maltese named Sofie and a Maltipoo named Figaro. I had a cat named Mooshie but she unfortunately passed away after 15 years and I miss her. I have experience fostering up to 6 dogs at a time. I'm currently semi retired, so I'll be able to take good care of your pet! I spoil mine rotten and know I would do the same for yours :) I have a large fenced yard in a very quiet part of Scottsdale. My fur babies are friendly, so you needn't have any worries on that score.

Alison was fantastic with our two dogs! She was flexible when meeting up, responsive to messages and provided updates.

Alison was an amazing pet sitter! She took wonderful care of my dog and made the whole experience completely stress-free. She communicated regularly, kept me updated on how everything was going, and sent lots of pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter!

Alison was excellent. We received daily updates and pictures of our pups! Pics and videos showed Phoebee and Scooter having a great time! Would highly recommend Alison. She is very patient, loving and caring.

Alison is simply the best. She was in constant contact with updates and Henry, my pup, loved her. Henry needs a little more special attention (unable to get off and on furniture), and she took great care of him with no complaints. She is also very respectful of any requirements or special instructions. She’ll truly treat your pet as her own!

Alison was an awesome sitter while I was gone for 12 days. Never used anyone before but discovered Max was in very good hands. I got regular pics and updates daily. Thank you Alison!
