Dog Walking NTNA-Cavalier Hills

“Nancy has been walking my chihuahua Lily for over a year now and has been outstanding in every way! She is punctual, friendly, energetic, and a pleasure to work with. Lily loves their walks and does zoomies when she sees Nancy has come to get her!”

About: I've been hosting dogs & cats through Rover.com for several years now, and it's been a tremendously rewarding experience. While I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, I have only 2 cats right now. They both like dogs, especially my leash-trained therapy cat who likes everybody. The cats are never aggressive, but a very high-energy impolite dog could get a left-hook if they're not careful. Calmer dogs used to cats are a great fit. Take your next vacation with peace of mind; knowing your pooch is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention and playtime! I have yet to have a guest that didn’t bond to me almost immediately…it’s like they can sense that I am an easy source of belly rubs and treats! While I have plenty of amateur training experience with dogs and cats, I am in the process of earning a "Good Pup" training certification through Rover, so for a limited time am offering some basic obedience training with boarding or daycare. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions you might have about my home, experience, or schedule. I work from my home office during the week, and extra canine/feline company is always welcomed. I have a small fenced-in yard for potty breaks whenever the need arises. There's usually no problem accommodating specific daily feeding/walk schedules with some advance notice. Your furry children will be very comfortable in my North Tempe town-home, where I live alone in a conveniently located 'dog-friendly' neighborhood near Papago Park. Many of my guests drop off and pick up on the way to/from Sky Harbor Airport, which is about 15 minutes away (about 5.5 miles). I'm within walking distance of the local dog park, if that's something you & your dog are comfortable with.

“What a treat to have her give my fur baby attention! She was LOVELY! Sent pics and updates. Thank you!!!”

About: Hi! My name is Bridget, and I've owned and cared for cats for 25 years. I grew up with Devon Rexes, so I know all about energetic, play-centric breeds, but I also have loads of experience caring for shy kitties who need their space. No matter what your cat's personality is like, I'll make sure he or she knows they are king of the castle. I'm available to care for your pets at your home, and can do daily feedings. I work 9-5, but am also available for 2x/daily visits depending on location. The majority of my experience is with short-term care (<two weeks) but I am also able to provide long-term care. Please let me know of any questions or concerns - I would love to help pamper your pet while you're gone! I work 6-3, and can spend some of my work day at your home so your pet doesn’t get lonely. I’m also available for 2x/daily visits depending on location. The majority of my experience is with short-term care (<two weeks) but I am also able to provide long-term care. I always let pets come to me on their own time, and will never force cuddles or photos on an animal who isn’t enthusiastic. Your pet’s comfort is of the utmost importance for me - so if that means sitting in silence in the same room together, perfect - and if they prefer to go crazy chasing a toy, I’m ready to play!

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life and have been dog sitting for family and friends since my junior year of high school. I have experience with both large breeds, like German Shepherds, and small dogs. I’ve done everything from short check-ins while owners are at work to week-long stays. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who truly cares, and I treat every dog I watch with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m currently a student at Arizona State University with classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Outside of that, I have a flexible schedule and can adjust my routine to accommodate pet care. On weekends, I usually work on school assignments, which I’m able to do from anywhere, allowing me to provide attentive and consistent care. I currently provide pet care in my client’s home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any household routines. I prioritize safety by keeping doors secured, monitoring pets closely during walks, and maintaining a clean, calm space. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: New to Rover, but pet sitting since college. I grew up with an animal rescue in my back yard and have a lot of experience around furry friends. Trustworthy, friendly, responsible and flexible animal lover :) I work from home full time. I have two cats and two kids. I would love to take care of your furry family member and treat them as if they were my own :) My home is clean, organized and welcoming for dogs and cats. Happy to accommodate any special requests so that you and your pet are very happy and comfortable with my care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was a young boy. No matter their needs, I will care for your furry friends as if they were my own🐶❤️ I have a full time job but would be more than willing to care for your dogs on my days off. My schedule changes from week-to-week but I work more consistently during the weekend. I live in an apartment that has many fenced in areas for dogs and has access to a convenient path for walking. In your home I would adapt to the environment and give your dog the best care. I will make sure to keep them hydrated and fed if need be.

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day. My apartment is dog-friendly with a fenced dog park just steps from my door, perfect for playtime and potty breaks. I also have no pets or children, so your dog will have a calm, cozy space all to themselves. My partner, Austin, also works from home and helps me care for the dogs. We’re a team, and your pup will get double the love! Dogs have always been family to me. I’ve grown up with them and have cared for all kinds from playful pups to senior dogs needing daily medication. Whether it’s long walks, fun playtime, or cuddles after a busy day, we treat every dog like our own and do everything we can to make them feel happy, safe, and right at home. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, your pup will get plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular potty breaks, playtime, meals, and walks whenever your dog needs them. I’m here to make sure they feel cared for, comfortable, and companionship. However, because I work from home, I cannot accept dogs that bark or howl indoors for long periods of time. I treat every dog like family, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. My partner and I live in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment with plenty of room to play, plus a fenced dog park just steps away for potty breaks and outdoor fun. We also love taking dogs on walks at Papago Park. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I’m always respectful of your space and will follow your instructions. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, keeping off certain furniture, or special care needs, I’m here to make sure your pup feel safe, comfortable, and well taken care of.

“2nd time booking with Bella but this time I booked very last minute. Thank goodness she was pretty flexible! My pup has a high energy levels so these walks help a whole lot to tire him out. Bella is very sweet and nice—10/10 recommend.”

About: I grew up with a brindle boxer who was truly part of my family, and losing her a couple years ago was one of the hardest things I’ve gone through. Since then, I’ve been fostering dogs through the Humane Society, everything from shy rescues to energetic puppies. Ive fostered dogs that had kennel cough to dogs that needed to gain weight after being rescued from horrible conditions. Fostering taught me how to handle different personalities, build trust with nervous dogs, and give each pet the patience and love they need. Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I bring that same level of attention and compassion to every pet I watch. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I’m available most days and fully flexible, I'm pursuing a degree and have class Tuesday and Thursday from 9am–12pm, but I’m available the rest of the day and all other days of the week. This gives me a very flexible schedule for walks, drop‑ins, and house sitting. I plan my day around pet care, so your dog always gets consistent attention, timely visits, and plenty of love. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I follow all instructions exactly, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your dog is never put in an unsafe situation. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with foster dogs, so I know how to handle different personalities and energy levels. I always double‑check leashes, harnesses, and feeding routines, and I keep a close eye on your pet during every visit. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.

“I booked Christa last minute while I was traveling, and she was absolutely amazing. She came by twice in one day, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with my dog. I could tell my dog felt comfortable and well cared for. I’m so grateful she was available on short notice and would definitely book her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had a Yorkie named Cooper since I was young and he currently lives with my parents back in Cleveland. I love dogs so much and I believe you should take care of dogs like you do your kids! I work fully remote, so I will be at home and play with the dogs all day! I will show them love and be able to feed them and take them to the bathroom whenever they need it! I also have a dog park at my apartment and a park in walking distance! I will play or walk the dogs whenever they need it, I love to exercise and move around! They will never not be shown love!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I have a PRN position at a children’s hospital, so I have plenty of time to check in on your baby/babies. I work a short Monday shift from 12-4PM. I have a hybrid pharmacy schedule, so I am able to attend classes from wherever I am. I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 3, and caring for them has always come naturally to me! I’ve grown up with two Labs, a Lhasa Apso, and a Maltipoo, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve taken my own dogs on hour-long walks and runs, so I’m more than happy to keep up with high-energy pups who need to burn off some energy. I’ve also been trusted to care for dogs on my own for entire weekends while their owners were out of town, including keeping up with their routines, exercise, feeding, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m extremely active, responsible, and comfortable handling dogs independently. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own and want every walk to be something they genuinely look forward to! Since I work fully remotely, I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. Monday through Thursday, I’m available during my lunch break as well as anytime after 4:30 PM. On Fridays, I’m available between 1:00–4:00 PM, and I’m also available Saturday and Sunday mornings from 8:00–11:00 AM. I love having the flexibility to get outside during the day, so dog walking is a perfect fit for my routine! Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority! I’m a very caring, attentive, and responsible person, and I’ll treat every pup like they’re my own. During walks, I’ll make sure your dog is secure, comfortable, and getting plenty of positive attention while we’re out. I’m mindful of traffic, other dogs, hot weather, and anything else that could affect their safety. I’ll also follow your instructions closely and make sure I understand your dog’s routine, personality, and any specific needs before heading out. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pup is in good hands and getting some fun, loving attention while you’re away!

About: I have grown up with dogs for my whole life. We have had three dogs over the years and they have all had different personalities. It has been fun to adapt based on the dogs personalities and provide them with the care they need. When I was 11 I started a pet sitting business in my town. I would care for and walk a variety of dogs in my town and really enjoyed it. I am a big walker/ runner myself so I love being able to take dogs out on my walks and play with them in whatever way they need. I am currently an occupational therapist working in a preschool. I typically work from 7-3. I would be available for evening walks and open to over night stays on the weekends or during the week if your animals are able to be left alone during the work day. I have many days off working in a school so will have more availability during those times as well. I am very respectable to other peoples homes. I will follow all directions given to me and ensure to provide quality care for your animal!

“Kristi is very kind and I highly recommend her for your fur baby too! I felt extremely comfortable having Kristi with my big 80 pound boy - Hunter plus I trusted her with access to my home so she could walk Hunter.”
