Uptown’s Reliable Unc

Hi, I’m Scott. Phoenix’s reliable pup-uncle. I was raised in Michigan and I’m now based in Phoenix with my 10lb pomsky, Koda. I work from home, so your pet always has a human present, attentive, and genuinely happy to be there. WALKS | 0.5-1 mile, 20 minutes of outside time Adjusted for your dog’s size, sniffing preferences and the temperature outside. I aim for a balance of exercising and sniffing. We wind down with treats, a water check, and a paw wipe before heading back inside. DROP-IN VISITS | about 30 minutes Feeding, walking, playtime, and treats. All the good stuff, on your pet’s schedule. Let me know how you want me to allocate the time with your pet, else I default to walks taking a bulk of the time. HOUSE SITTING | overnight and extended stays I treat your home as my own, keeping up with routines and leaving things cleaner than I found them. You’ll get daily updates and walk distance tracking so you’re never out of the loop.

Safety, trust & environment

My dog Koda is friendly and well-socialized, making him a great companion for all pups. He’s played comfortably with dogs ranging from 6 to 60 lbs. Please note that if your dog is not conditioned around smaller dogs, I’ll need to make separate accommodations. My preference is to have Koda join for daycare and house sitting stays since he’s trained on everything I work on with the pups. He’s also great for energy balance and keeping the fun going! I work from home full time so your dog is rarely left alone. For daycare, our gated community adds an extra layer of security for outdoor time. I always recommend a meet and greet before booking so your pup can get comfortable with the space and with me. In the rare event of an emergency I will contact you immediately and seek veterinary care without hesitation. References available upon request.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

So grateful for Scott! He was able to accommodate my super last minute request and was so kind. He sent pictures and updates and made sure Rue had the best time. She came home tuckered out, calm and happy. Definitely will book with Scott again in the future!

Scott was wonderful and a great find!! He sent ongoing pics, videos, and messages on all the fun my pup Glitter was having while I was away. Scott is a 5+ star sitter and is definitely our #1🐾

Scott is an animal lover to his core. It doesn't matter where he comes across an animal, he always leads with an empathetic and loving personality. He has an effortless air of trust for both people and dogs that helps take settle even the most anxious dogs and their owners. I can not stress enough the level of trust I have for Scott with my pets. I know they will be cared for above and beyond when I am away.

I have known Scott since we were in high school, and I can honestly say I do not know a more caring or attentive pet owner. Scott and I were roommates for 7 years, in which time I saw just how often he went above and beyond for his dog, Lucy, who he’s had since she was a puppy. Scott has watched my own dog now in numerous occasions, and often stops by my house when I’ve gotten caught up at work so he can let him out, feed him if need be, and visit with him. Scott is absolutely someone you can trust with your animal, who if you’re like me, is more like family than a pet.
