About: I have had cats & medium-to-large breed dogs my entire life. I have experience with senior dogs, especially grumpy cats, and giving oral medications. I am currently a stay-at-home dog mom to my spoiled rottweiler, Remington; so I have time during the day for walks or check-ins. I am a stay-at-home dog mom, so I have my days & evenings free to do check-ins or walks. I do NOT currently offer housesitting or boarding because of my spoiled rottweiler. 🐶💓 I ensure leashes are well fitting and follow all instructions provided. I secure any escape routes, and double check doors are locked or secure. I also make sure any choking hazards are put up or disposed of. Ensuring the safety of your pet is my number 1 priority.
About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. Hi! I currently work for Amazon and have a schedule of four 10-hour shifts each week. Outside of work, I have plenty of time to care for and spend with your pets. I have been dog sitting since I was a kid and have always had a love for animals. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members, and I would treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own! I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!
About: To connect with your pet(s) on a super fun level and to really show them just how much we really do love and appreciate them! During the day 11 am to 2 pm At night 6 pm to 10 pm I would walk your pet around if needed but if the weather is appropriate. Being able to follow detailed instructions. I am consistent with the time I suppose to allow them to run and playing with them outside. I enjoy discovering new traits about pets.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have plenty of hands-on pet sitting experience. I’ve cared for my brother’s two medium-sized dogs as well as my aunt’s and uncle’s dogs, including overnight stays. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also very active and go on daily walks—even in the Arizona summer—so your dog will get lots of exercise, fresh air, and love while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I work remotely Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, making it easy to accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and lots of companionship. I finish work in the early afternoon, so my evenings are open for additional walks, exercise, and quality time with your pet. I do attend a fitness class for about an hour most days, but otherwise I’m home and love spending time outdoors, making it easy to keep active dogs happy and engaged. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a remote project manager, organization, communication, and reliability are part of my everyday job, and I bring those same qualities to pet care. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m stopping by for a walk or staying overnight, I’ll provide plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and affection. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Wai did an amazing job with our dog! She communicated very well everyday and kept us updated with how he was doing and even sent pictures. She was very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover with 5 years of experience caring for pets, including pet sitting for family, friends, and people in my community. I’ve always been someone others can trust with their pets, and I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality, quirks, and routines. 💗 I have pets of my own, so I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else. When they’re in my care, I treat them like my own with plenty of love, attention, playtime, cuddles, and the (not so) occasional treat! 💗 I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including pets with special needs. I have experience administering oral and injectable medications to both dogs and cats and am comfortable following detailed instructions and maintaining their normal routines. 💗 I also always like to do a meet & greet before accepting a booking. It gives me a chance to meet you and your pet, learn their routine, go over any special instructions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. 💗 I’m also naturally a clean and tidy person and am great about cleaning up after myself. I’ll take care of your home just as thoughtfully as I take care of your pets and will always do my best to leave things as clean, or even cleaner, than I found them. 💗 I do unfortunately work full time, but my schedule varies throughout the week and I only work 3/7 days a week. Other than that, I’m a free woman willing to watch your fur babies for you. I am great with communication so we can always discuss availability! On the days I do work I get off at 6:30 PM and I’m free for the rest of the night for drop-in’s, walks, or an overnight stay! I will always respect your wishes in your home. I’ve always been a respectful and trustworthy person, I clean up after myself (and any fur babies), I’ll even leave the place better than I found it. When I’m caring for your pet, all my focus is on them and their needs, I keep a tight ship around here! I love the idea of pet sitting in your pets home because it keeps them comfortable in their own safe environment and stick to the routines that they are used to.
About: I have owned and taken care of a lot of dogs in the past 10 years. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted that I take great care of their fur babies! I offer overnight care in your home as well as walking and drop-ins! I am a self employed hair stylist so I can pretty easily modify my schedule to accommodate you and your dogs personal needs! I work 4-5 days a week so I am looking for something to do in my free time. I always prefer to have a run-down on how you take care of your dog and understand your personal routine with the dog so that I can mimic that to the best of my ability.
About: I'm extremely patient with any dog. I always make sure they fell comfortable around me before I do anything! I am a strong walker! I also know how to make the most out of any time spent with a dog! Pet care is my number one priority for an animal I take care of! I will always make sure that the animal is the top priority when we go anywhere. I always put the dogs safety before my own. I will watch for other dogs and loose animals when we go on walks. When sitting in the past I let the parent know of the times I let the dog out or do anything with the animal. I will send many cute pictures for updates of what is going on!

About: I've had a dog since I was roughly 9 and she passed away recently so I'd like to spend some of my love of dogs with your dogs! I currently have 2 cats, Ekko and Demeter. I work a swing shift with a set schedule so I can usually schedule walks in pretty easily! Generally I'm more busy on 1 week at work than the next week so most of my availability is on the short week. I treat your pets with love and care as I treat my own, if this is their time during the day you're at work that they are allowed to go outside then I'll make sure to let them sniff and walk a little extra.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 8. I love all animals but especially dogs. I’m an RN but in my free time I love being outdoors and going for walks. I work part time. So I have plenty of free time to spend with your beloved pets. I love going for walks and being active outdoor I have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks.

Safety and trust are at the heart of how I care for every pet. Whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I make sure they feel secure, comfortable, and cared for at all times.

“Makayla is awesome! My dog can be hesitant around new people but immediately warmed up to her which I immediately recognized as a win. She went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and I were comfortable, with her excellent communication, flexibility, and easy-going disposition. I would 100% recommend Makayla to anyone looking for exceptional care for their four-legged loved one.”

Edmy did great with my boy Benson on a last minute walk! This was the first time we have had someone come into the house for a walk, so he was very nervous but Edmy was very patient with him until he warmed up to her!! She did a great job wearing him out so that he could sleep until I got home. Would book again👍🏼
