Pet care experience

Desert Paws AZ Drop-Ins & Dog Walks

I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments for many years, including pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and anxious dogs, and I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable and stick to their normal routines. As the owner of Desert Paws AZ, I provide calm, reliable in-home care so pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m fully insured and background checked, and I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and maintaining their normal routines. I also treat every home and animal with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I provide photo updates after every visit so you always know how your pets are doing.

Safety, trust & environment

Creating a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment is very important to me when caring for pets in their own home. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine and personality so visits feel familiar, comfortable, and low-stress while you’re away. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and home routines. I also provide photo updates after every visit so you can feel confident your pets are safe and well cared for.

Jen has a natural way with animals and makes them feel at ease right away. She’s patient, attentive, and takes the time to ensure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. It’s reassuring to know she’s reliable, follows instructions closely, and keeps everything running smoothly while you’re away. Highly recommend and would use again.

We cannot recommend Jen enough she took such wonderful care of our dog Cos while we were on a week long family trip. She cared for our dog as if it was her own with feeding, walks, playtime, belly rubs sent updates & photos which gave us complete peace of mind. Cos requires medication and has routine needs which was followed & handled with care. He was so happy when we returned home it was clear he was well -loved. We will definitely be booking her again.

I have personally known Jen for over 10 years. She has always been a hard-working individual. However, when she watched our dog Jax for the 1st time I saw another side of her....she was passionate, loving, energetic and truly joyful to watch our four legged child. I was at ease knowing that our dog was in good hands while we were out of town. Thank you for all you do Jen! I am grateful.

Jen is dependable, responsible, and very easy to work with. She pays attention to details, follows through on everything she says, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. It’s clear she puts a lot of care into what she does and makes sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. She’s someone you can trust to show up, do a great job, and treat your home with respect. I would confidently recommend her to anyone in need of pet care.

Jen is incredibly reliable and caring. She has helped care for our dog, Lily, and always makes sure she feels comfortable and well taken care of. Lily absolutely loves her and gets excited every time she sees her. Jen is very attentive, follows instructions closely, and treats our home with respect. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing Lily is in such good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

I always appreciate learning about each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences before visits begin. Knowing what helps your pet feel comfortable — whether that’s favorite activities, feeding routines, medications if needed, or things that may cause stress or anxiety — helps me provide the best care possible. My goal is to make every visit feel safe, familiar, and low-stress while keeping your pet as comfortable and happy as possible.
