Dog Walking In Ntna-West Rio

“Teresa is a wonderful walker. My two always are happy when they return from their walk. I really appreciate her working with an early walk time.”

About: I LOVE animals, I have a dog and birds who I have been taking care of since I was a kid. I have experience pet sitting for family and friends, so I am very comfortable taking care of animals. I have always been the type of person who hangs out with the dog instead of people at parties, so spending time with animals makes me genuinely happy! I am looking for a way to make some extra money during the summer while I’m in nursing school, so I am available pretty much every day/ all day the next couple months :) When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I like to make sure they are comfortable, and that they are kept on a similar routine as they normally are. I’ll provide fresh food and water, let them outside, give them attention, and clean up as needed. I also pay attention to any extra instructions given by the owner.

“Ariel is great and I feel good about leaving my dog in her hands. She responds to all requests and is flexible to any changes. Definitely would recommend.”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats of every kind. I’ve raised puppies and kittens and older animals. I’ve potty trained and I love teaching new tricks! I am a full time student in college at ASU but my schedule is very open. I only have two classes at most on select days which give me a lot of free time to take care of your fur baby. I will mainly be providing service outside of my home but I like to be active and fun so I will be able to provide my full attention.

About: Hello! So nice to meet you. I'm looking forward to getting to know you and your pet(s)! My first name is Taylor, but please call me Marie (my middle and preferred name). A bit about my background: I am Fear Free Level 3 Certified (........), RECOVER Initiative CPR-Certified (........ -- I just renewed for 2026), and I am insured as a Pet Sitter / Dog Walker through Pet Care Insurance. I'm currently enrolled (2026) in Penn Foster's Vet Tech Associate's Degree Program. I graduated with a 4.0 from Pima Medical Institute, Phoenix, in December 2020 from the Veterinary Assistant Program. I graduated magna cum laude ("with great praise") from ASU in 2015 with a BA in Creative Writing and a second BA in French linguistics/translation/literature. I also completed one semester of the Pre-Veterinary Medicine program at ASU. I've worked for various Small Animal vet clinics on and off since 2018. I have been working with animals in some capacity since 2010 (technically years earlier, since I used to volunteer at our local humane society in elementary and middle school as a kid), and I’ve had my own pets since I was ~5 years old. I worked previously for Rover from July 2017 to May 2021, and took a hiatus because I moved, but unfortunately I no longer have my original Rover profile (Was listed as "Taylor E.", first name and maiden name initial). I had a 5-star rating from 35 people who were pleased with my pet care and communication and left positive reviews (thank you so much!!!) and had several repeat clients -- Please see screenshots of my previous Rover account reviews in my photo gallery. I love working for Rover, so I’m glad to be back! I am competent, thorough, communicative, responsible, punctual, respectful, honest, and have integrity. You can be assured that your pet(s) will be safe with me. I give periodic written updates with photos, I follow instructions carefully, I take attentive notes about your pet from your description and my own observations, I am focused and attentive when caring for your pet(s), and I respond promptly to messages. For pet sitting in your home, I am very tidy/respectful and will leave your home as clean as when I arrived, and I stay in only the designated area(s) and only touch what I need to (please show me where you keep cleaning supplies and your pets’ food or medications, etc.). I pick up after your pet and bring my own dog waste bags, leads, collapsible water bowl, and first aid kit, just in case. I pay attention to details, like the temperature (air/ground) being safe for walks. My preference is to suggest a “Meet-and-Greet” (whenever possible. I do typically accept short-notice requests where this may not be logistically possible) because it’s important to me that you AND your pet are comfortable with me (and I you). I am loyal and love to have repeat clients, but I also enjoy taking on one-time requests, I’m happy to help. I try to keep a pet’s routine as familiar as possible for their comfort and your peace of mind. I have the experience to be able to care for certain special needs, and I will communicate with you honestly (at all times) if I feel a request/booking is beyond my scope of experience because my priority is your pet's safety and wellbeing and I feel they should be matched with the best possible carer. I have worked with a variety of cats/dogs of different ages, abilities/needs/conditions, sizes, and breeds, as both a veterinary assistant and pet sitter. As an important DISCLAIMER: While I do have years of vet assistant experience and formal vet assistant education, I am not a Veterinarian and not a CVT (i.e., I am not licensed to practice veterinary medicine); I can only care for your pet in the capacity as a pet sitter / dog walker and cannot provide medical care or diagnose or prognose, etc. I will always refer you to your local Vet for that type of care and will not do anything outside of my scope of expertise for the safety of your pet (and to abide by the law). In the event of an emergency I can provide first aid/CPR and transport your pet to the vet. About our pets at home: My husband and I have two wonderful cats (1 adopted, 1 we rescued) and two wonderful dogs (adopted by us from the humane society after they were rescued from dire situations, respectively; one of which is a tripod and one is a disabled senior that wears diapers) -- I gravitate especially towards rescues and seniors that need a little extra care, and I especially love cats. Every pet is so special and deserves a safe and happy home! Thank you so much for your consideration. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! -- Marie When receiving a booking request, I will communicate in detail about my availability to ensure it meets your expectations and your pet's needs. I’m a transparent and thorough communicator, and I’ll let you know of any prior commitments that I may have during a house stay request. I also do real-time check-ins/updates, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing, what we’re up to, and when I am present and when I leave your home. My day-to-day work/school is remote and flexible, so I can choose my own hours and follow your pet’s daily routine (waking/sleeping/feeding, etc.), and give them lots of both active, attentive quality time (undivided attention playing with them, walking them, petting them, brushing them, caring for them, etc.) and hangout time (for example, sitting on the couch together). Whenever possible, I can take short-notice and same-day requests. I have evening classes most weekdays for ~2-4 hours, depending on the day, and occasional performances on weekends, but typically no other scheduling commitments from May to September annually. From September through May (9 months, Fall to Summer), I am unavailable Saturdays and some Fridays (mostly First Fridays) due to our performance schedule. For a healthy pet that can be safely left alone, I still always spend as much time with them as possible and only leave the house for meals (and/or can bring food) and/or class, an occasional errand, depending on how long the stay is. I arrive well-prepared to minimize the need to exit the home. I will discuss my availability and your pet's needs in detail before accepting a booking to be sure it is mutually a good fit. For any booking, your pet’s care and safety is my primary responsibility and I take my duty of supervision and care with the utmost seriousness (don’t worry, I’m also fun!). I also care deeply for their emotional well being, so while I have to be realistic about my own schedule and needs (my classes, the need to eat, etc.), I don’t leave them unattended or lonely for any longer than I have to. In your home or on a dog-walk, I will give your pet(s) my full attention to their safety, well-being, and happiness. I am consistent and committed to staying up to date on the latest behavioral and scientific/medical knowledge. I am thorough and I carefully follow directions and will ask for clarification if needed to ensure I am prepared for your pet's specific care. I am experienced and knowledgeable, and you can trust me in your home and with your precious pets. If they have a special need that I am not qualified for handling or have experience with, I will be honest and not overstate my skills (I want your pet to be in great hands with the best fit possible as much as you do). I am gentle, calm, and kind, and can also be silly/fun/playful/energetic, or very quiet; I try to adapt to your pet’s personality, comfort, and needs. I've worked with a range of pets, from quiet seniors and calm cats to rambunctious puppies, giant-breeds, and anxious pets. And while I love them all, I most especially gravitate towards cats, seniors, and differently-abled pets. I unfortunately cannot care for your pets in my own home (such as daycare or pet sitting in my home) because I have four of my own at home with special needs and routines. (Note that when I’m away on a house stay, they are in great hands with my husband, so while I miss them dearly when gone, my own pets are very loved and looked after.) ***I’m not accepting puppies at this time due to my varied availability/classes, or most Large/Giant breeds only because I’m healing a neck/shoulder injury; I'm not assuming about your pet that they pull on a lead, but I want to ensure I could safely carry/transport them in the event of an emergency.***

About: Your dog will be treated like family while staying in our home. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. One thing that sets my care apart is that I only accept one family's booking at a time. While I may care for multiple dogs from the same household, I do not mix dogs from different families. This allows me to provide more individualized attention, maintain a calm environment, and ensure your dog feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, including senior dogs and dogs requiring oral or injectable medications. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm place to relax, I tailor their stay to what makes them most comfortable. While we live in an apartment, your dog will receive multiple daily walks, exercise, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and make sure dogs in my care get the physical activity and enrichment they need. My son and I love spending time with dogs, and Rover has become a wonderful way for us to share that love while helping pet parents feel confident their pets are being cared for. Since we do not currently have pets of our own, visiting dogs receive lots of individualized attention during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be stressful, so I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout their visit. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. Before booking, I always encourage a meet-and-greet so we can make sure we're a great fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and are not left alone for extended periods. Dogs receive multiple daily walks and exercise tailored to their age, energy level, and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pet while you're away. Because I only accept one family's pets at a time, I am able to focus on providing individualized care and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment for each guest. I only accept one family’s pets at a time, creating a calm, safe environment where each pet receives personalized attention, comfort, and loving care.

About: I’ve had many pets growing up my entire life, however, I began being an animal caretaker since 2019. Originally I was a flying nanny so I was never home, but I was transporting dogs and cats all over the United States from state to state. I fell in love with my job until I could no longer travel anymore. Now that I work from home, I still want to be able to continue my journey with caring for animals. Many people do jobs because their parents did it or they do it for the money; but I genuinely do it because I love animals… you might be able to say more than humans. I currently work from home and work when I want in my daily life would really affect my availability to pet sit. I’m basically available every single day of the week unless I make plans. I live in an apartment that has a grass area for animals to handle their business and it is fenced all the way around the apartment. And I have a very sweet cat who was about three years old and she does very well with other animals if your baby needs company.

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

About: I have taken care of various animals throughout my life! I am a volunteer at the humane society, so I’m around dogs a lot! I love animals so much and enjoy taking care of them a lot! I am very good with dogs in particular! I was able to train my puppy to listen to many commands! I am a student at Coconino Community College, but I only have 2 classes a day Mon-Thurs and none of them are late classes! I also have time in between my classes on Mondays and Wednesdays(: I live in an apartment so I do not have a yard, but my apartment backs up to a forest area so it would be easy to take the dogs to play! There are also grassy areas around my apartment complex and parks nearby(: I’m a college student at Coconino Community College so I have classes Monday-Thursday but, my classes are only about an hour each and I only have 2 each day so I have lots of time to take care of any doggies! I live at an apartment so I do not have a yard but there is a foresty area all around the complex and I have a little patio area! There are also parks nearby, so I would be able to give the dogs plenty of time and areas to play!

About: I grew up on a ranch caring for many animals, especially dogs and cats. I’ve owned and cared for breeds like German Shepherds, Chows, Yorkshire Terriers, and rescued strays. I’ve worked at a local animal shelter and veterinary center. I love staying active and going on walks with dogs. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and consistency throughout the day. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment with plenty of supervision and attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while in my home.

About: Retired teacher and lifelong dog lover. I regularly care for dogs of all sizes including an 80lb Golden! Experience with a range of breeds and temperaments. Comfortable and experienced with medication and senior dog care. I am retired so I am available all the time to give some love to your beautiful babies! I am an early rise and very prompt, so comfortable with morning walks. I am very detail oriented and will ensure your loved animals will feel like they are being taken care of by their own parent. If your dog stays with me they will get miles of beautiful walks along the lake and lots of dog park time!

“Ashley arrived promptly and followed all instructions getting into the apartment for my 14 year old madam Biba … Biba would take Ashley for her walk and Ashley was lovely to be patient, Ashley also sent photos everyday of Biba loving her early morning walks. I highly recommend her and will be using her when we get back after the summer break.”

About: I have grown up in an environment full of animals. I feel a connect with them that makes me happy! Pets are like therapy to me and I love being around them. I am currently a student at ASU, but my work load is less this semester. I’m free over most weekends and some weekdays. I have looked after my friends’ pets and then realised how much I loved it! I live by myself and have a spacious, safe and clean space for the pet. I will ensure I supervise the pet at all times at my house

“Rohit has dog sat/boarded and day cared our dog Daisy for a year now. There's absolutely no one else I would trust to take care of her more than him. Daisy absolutely loves Dodger and she has a boatload of fun at his house. She always comes home and falls asleep shortly after. Rohit has always been awesome, extremely communicative and super trustworthy. Your dog is in excellent hands!”
