Pet care experience

My dog and cat both died of old age a few years ago and my boys are now grown and living out of state. I miss giving love, care and attention and can be there for your dog or cat when you can’t. I’m reliable, have plenty of energy and live in a beautiful, big gated community. I love long walks and also have a pet stroller for the dogs that can’t walk far. My house has several yards that are all walled in and there is covered space for shade as well. I can be available anytime since I do elder care on and off and can opt for dog care instead anytime. Feel free to call or interview in person here if prefer. I live in The Boulders, Scottsdale/Carefree.

Wonderful! A great place for our nervous dog to stay while we’re away.

Being new to the area and being gone for almost a week had me a little nervous but Barbara was absolutely the best sitter for my two pups. From the photos she sent daily, I’m sure they weren’t missing us at all as Barbara snuggled and love them as we would. I’m so grateful we had the chance to relax on our vacation knowing they were in such loving care. Thank you, Barbara!

This was our first time using Rover and Barbara put our mind at ease! She was amazing with our dog and helping him feel comfortable in her home. She sent many pictures and videos which were so fun to see while away. It was clear our pup was taken care of. We cannot say enough positive things about Barbara and can’t wait to book again!

Barbara was amazing. I had to work a night shift and my husband was away. My little guy has terrible storm anxiety and of course there was a thunderstorm coming. She was so understanding and willing to do whatever it took to try and keep him calm. She sent tons of pictures and updates. She took him for walks and played with him. I’m not sure he wanted to come home! Thanks so much for being so loving to my little love. It means the world to me.

Information Barbara M. would like to know about your pet

I’ve had mutts and pure breeds and love them all. I don’t have experience with aggressive dogs and would like to know in advance what your dogs personality is like.

A typical day

Long walks in quiet, large, dog friendly community or stroller walks for those dogs that can’t or don’t like long walks. Can play fetch or snuggle on couch, dogs choice.
