“Lauren is the best! She took great care of our kitties, checked in with lots of cute pictures every day, and made us feel that our babies were in really great hands. We can only recommend her!”
“Elizabeth is amazing and have so much patience. Thank you for providing us with her recommendation. We are very fortunate. Shedid everything in her power to accommodate and make the separation easier. She so full of understanding and was very concern about Maximus’ welfare If you need a sitter she is you person!”
“I loved the several pictures and the last minute availability. Benji is my child in dog form and it felt safe and comfortable. She did not feel like a stranger and I’m very happy with the drop in service I got. Will 100% have her over again!”
“We were gone for nine day, had Annaliese visiting regularly. She was fantastic with our two cats, very easy to communicate with, and we loved the pictures we got. We would absolutely trust her to watch them again.”
“Megan was so sweet, kind and thoughtful with our dog! I don’t think we could have found anyone better! She went above and beyond, kept us informed,and calmed my fears about leaving our dog!”
“Kate was great! This was a short notice booking and she answered the call with flying colors. The dogs liked her very much and were very relaxed around her. Will not hesitate to book with her again.”
“We feel so lucky to have found Stephanie! She's been watching our pup for about 9 months now and it's such a comforting feeling knowing that while you're out that someone so sweet and reliable is hanging out with your best bud. I would 100% recommend her. She is a gem! And... she takes some pretty awesome photos of your baby too ?”
“Saige did a wonderful job watching my babies! She brought my packages inside that were delivered while I was away, took my garbage out, and generally just went above and beyond. I will definitely book with her again and am so grateful to have had such a sweet trustworthy sitter. I recommend her highly.”
“The cats seemed happier and less stressed this trip. Appreciated extra help with bringing in a package and garbage can without being asked. She sent pictures of all 3 kittys in some of their favorite but hard to find hiding places, even under our bed. Instead of leaving the keys under the front door mat where someone might find them before we got home, she messaged me she'll drop them off when we're home. I would highly recommend Kylee if you're looking for someone who gives the best pet care but who also cares about things not necessarily expected of her.”
“Bryan and Ginger were an absolute blessing. They took such amazing care of our baby, Nancy. I was told everyday how she was doing and what they did and got multiple photos of my girl. Nancy was always happy in all the photos and in perfect heath upon my return. We will without a doubt be booking with them again and highly recommend them to those with animal care needs. Thank you both so very much.”
“Kristina is first rate! She listened to our pups needs and went over and beyond to show them love. She played with them, shared a photo, and gave them extra care during her visit. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I started taking care of livestock at age 9. I have been a volunteer with the Arizona Border Collie Rescue since 2022 ,I foster and transport. I have 3 Border Collies , 2 of them are rescues. One of my BC has epilepsy so I have 7 years experience with this disease. Senior dogs are my favorite but I love them all. My dogs are my world their needs always come first . I would love to meet you and your pet(s) , I can come play , take them for a walk, just drop in to give meds or meet any of their other needs. I also have a lifetime of livestock experience. I work part time and have reliable transportation , so I have plenty of flexibility. My epileptic dog gets her pills at 6am and 6 pm , all other times I’m available. First I would like to meet you and your pet(s) so we can get to know each other. I treat all animals just like my own. I can provide references from the rescue and neighbors if requested.
About: I’ve been dog sitting and house sitting for about 4 years now, caring for all kinds of pets from chill, low maintenance dogs to super high-energy ones that need a lot of attention and exercise. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and even giving medications if needed. I’ve also cared for multiple pets at once, so I know how to manage different personalities and keep everything running smoothly. Since I’m active, I make sure dogs actually get real exercise and attention not just the bare minimum. Whether that’s longer walks, play sessions, or just keeping them company, I adjust based on what your pet needs. I also have a lot of experience staying in clients’ homes, so I understand the importance of keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. I treat both your pets and your home with respect. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to give pets a lot of attention throughout the day. I’m active and like being out, so walks, playtime, and check-ins fit naturally into my routine. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I do my best to work around your pet’s normal schedule so everything feels consistent for them. I always treat every home and pet with respect, like it’s my own. I make sure doors are secure, routines are followed, and your pet is always safe and comfortable. I pay attention to details like feeding, behavior, and surroundings so nothing gets overlooked. Whether I’m in your home or stopping by, my goal is to keep things clean, calm, and stress-free for your pet.
