“PJ says he always like staying with Kallie at her 🏡 He loves the backyard with the soft grass, and the creatures abound like lizards 🦎 and Bunny 🐰. Plus the cool indoors where he can just hang loose, chill and snooze 😴 if he wants.”

About: I have had pets all my life. I currently have one dog, but have almost always had cats and I also had bunnies growing up. I trained my own dog when she was a puppy. I work from home so I have a ton of availability and will spend most of your pet’s stay at home with them. I am open to sitting any type of pet and can’t wait for myself and my dog Millie to meet your furbaby! I work from home so I often have an open schedule and love to be home, but also love to be outside with my dog. I take her everywhere I can and would be happy to have your pet join us! I have a backyard and a few grassy/park areas nearby that I take my dog to every day. I take her out multiple times a day for potty and walks.

“Leslie was great with our 7 month old lab. She provided post-surgery care and made sure Sadie didn’t harm her stitches. She took her out for plenty of walks, shared lots of pictures, and was very thorough. Sadie was exhausted every night from playing and walking. I would highly recommend Leslie and will certainly use her services again in the future.”

About: I have cared for all types of dogs. I have had dogs all my life. Neighbors call me when they need their dog cared for. They are all loved like they are our own. My husband and I work from home so your pup will not be alone. They will be able to play and be loved and adored all day long. Although I'm new to Rover I'm not new to caring for dogs. I have a fenced yard and a fenced dog run area. They have activities to keep them happy all day and other dogs to play with. Your furbaby will have a great day while they are with us and you are out doing what you need to do. Pictures or texts will be sent. I have 1 mellow cat that gets along with all dogs, but she can be put away if your loved furbaby prefers. I am home all day with your fur baby. So I am available to care and be with our baby all day. They will get great care! Your baby will get to play all day, have breaks, eat on your schedule. Please provide their food and any snacks you wish them to have.

About: I am Deaf and rely on ASL to communicate. I am an expert at reading body language both in people & animals. I've grown up with many different animals, mostly dogs. I had my own dog starting at age 8. I've taken care of dogs personally and professionally since then. I'd go dogsit neighbors' dogs at their houses and have family/friends' dogs at my house. I walked dogs for two years before COVID happened. I am a work-at-home mom with three kids (9 years old to an infant) and two pups. I am available on weekdays, weekends, days & nights! We are huge pet lovers here. I have three kids to keep your pets stimulated and busy. I also have a fenced yard and a two-story house. We also live close to a dog park if you've taken your dogs to a dog park and are comfortable with me doing so. I have two dogs to play with your dogs. We enjoy going on walks early in the morning and after dinner, so we will bring your dog along! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible. I will adjust my schedule to fit your pup's routine! Either my partner, Alex, and I or both are always home so the dogs are almost never on their own. I can bring my work with me wherever the dogs are, inside & outside. I have a fenced backyard, baby gates throughout the house, a storm door on the front door, several crates (medium & large), and a quiet & safe room upstairs if your pup needs some space. I have a lot of dog toys all around the house, blankets, treats, outdoor activities, etc to help your pup feel safe and comfortable here. I care for many anxious & nervous dogs, so I am well aware of their body language and know exactly what it is they need. If you ask my previous clients, they'd tell you that their anxious dogs warm up to me pretty quickly!

“Courtney was the best. My doggo had a great time playing at her house and being spoiled. We will definitely use her again when the time comes!”

About: We loved our furry friends our entire life. Here on the ranch, we have many animals: mini horse, tortoises, chickens, cats, and dogs. So many sights and sounds...there is always something fun going on! And there is always someone here on the ranch to care for the animals. On the ranch your dog will experience: a fully fenced yard, almost 2 acres to exercise, exposure to various ranch animals to help your dog grow socially and emotionally, and a pool to cool off in.

About: I’ve taken care of pets when needed since I was in high school. I have done dog sitting, walking, and playing! I have two dogs of my own so I know how much love goes into our little ones. I am free weekends and have an open schedule in the evenings. Let me know how often you need care and we can work something out. I like to know your pets routine so we can stick to it and have time to play and get exercise. We can communicate what’s best to make you and your pet most comfortable.

About: I've taken care of many pets for family and my friends over the weekend or week days while away on vacation in my home and their homes. I currently work Monday thru Friday 8:30a -5p. I'm available after 5:30pm. I'm pretty flexible and very reliable. They will love my fur babies just as they will love yours. 🐾💙 I love meeting new dogs. I have 2 older fur babies that are under 20 lbs. I have a fenced in pretty large yard with one tree and it's a lemon tree. Lots of toys and love to share. 🐾💕

“My pups had such a great day with Christine and Daniel’s! They are nice people and communicative. My dogs came home happy, worn out and went to bed early. Happy I found them!”

About: I am an army veteran and a credentialed veterinary technician with more than 15 years in the field. I currently work at an emergency ICU hospital, and actively pursuing my specialization in emergency and critical care. My husband works from home as a software engineer, so someone is always there. My daughter has been around animals her whole life, and is very trained around all personality types. I also am a certified pharmacy technician, and am well versed with medications and administration. I have spent extensive training in behavior and volunteer with rescues. Special needs dogs that have special personalities or needs are no problem. My goal is to make this experience as smooth, as stress-free as possible and most importantly fun! What to expect out of a visit or stay with us: Our fur babies are just as important as our humans in our families. I will be providing daily picture and video updates, Daily monitoring/report cards for each day in our care, incident reports, and a graduate certificate after each stay. I currently work at am Emergency Veterinary hospital as a relief technician. This means I basically can make and adjust my schedule around as I please. My husband works from home, so there is always someone there to entertain our visitors. I have a fenced in backyard and several gates to segregate different pets. I am trained with the "crate and rotate" method. Meaning if there are dogs that are more nervous, I will let them outside on their own or eat by themselves, but they are able to see through the barriers so they can still socialize until they are more comfortable.

“Felt very safe leaving Zarina with her. She was very communicative and patient with me. As an out of towner my guesses of how long everything would take was a bit off. lol traffic! I will use her again!”

“Teddy was well cared for by Jamie! I especially like it that he was the only pet. Her house is spotless and pet safe. I’d definitely use her services again.”

About: I currently work from home and am available for all of your dogs needs from companionship, stimulation and bathroom breaks. I pride myself on being available to the dogs and a present pet parent. I work from home and your pet will be included in my day to day activities as if it were my own. I am very attentive caring and sensitive to the needs of my pets which in turn will make me sensitive to the needs of your pet. The pets in my home are cared for as family, they get free reign of the house, they have full access to my back yard and they are not left alone in the back yard.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 9 years old. My specialty is fragile seniors with special needs, meds, diets and gentle care. My three girls are not dogs but sweet babies who give us unconditional love and are treasured. We will welcome yours the same way and keep them safe <3 I work out of my home office so this gives me the ability to supervise your pet. They can join mine in my office, we have plenty of comfy spots. I give frequent breaks, time for treats, cuddles and can take them on short walks to our little park (if desired) I also have a pet stroller. I have a fenced in yard with critter fencing and a gate guard. A large turf area perfect for zoomies! My two friendly little malti-pos and a Chinese Crested will be their play pals. They are low key and gentle.

About: I have always been a pet owner, volunteered at no-kill shelters for many years, and have worked with many sick AND healthy dogs over my years as a veterinary assistant! I am a hard-worker in and out of school and will ensure that you feel that your pets are in the best hands! I am no stranger to animal care and I will use my three years of experience to ensure that you receive the best care possible! I am currently a Veterinary Science major studying at the U of A! I try to be as up front about my class schedules as I can as being a student is a huge part of who I am! I want to have the most experience possible with a variety of companion animals as I work towards my goal of becoming a veterinarian. Before coming to the UA, I had a full time job at an amazing clinic where I learned so much more in depth animal care! I am all about pet safety and I am a very hypervigilant pet sitter/walker as I only want what is best for my clients! I am able to watch pups outside if predators are a concern or obstacles like a swimming pool. Happy clients and pets are of utmost importance and I provide daily pictures/videos of pets to ensure that owners feel at ease! I also require meet and greets before bookings because I love to get to know you and your pet a little more and ensure that we are a good fit!

“Our fluffy friend has ALWAYS been welcomed at Elizabeth’s. She is very loving and caring and we are happy to bring Sedona to Elizabeth’s weekly for day care. Sedona always comes home tired and satisfied with her day. We’ll continue to go to Elizabeth’s weekly!”

“Our dog loves staying at Lara's. She is great with all the dogs that visit, and the "open house" set-up, with a variety of exercise and play options, and checking out the horses and pony is a bonus! Lara is flexible and communicates well about scheduling. We live the photos and videos she sends to reassure us that our pup who sometimes has separation anxiety is doing well. Highly recommend Lara for doggie daycare or overnight boarding.”

“Brynn is an animal lover. I would definitely trust my pet with her and her husband. She even sent home a bag of doggie treats! Thank you, Brynn”
