Pet Sitting Oracle

“Joe was great! I think the dogs like him more than us now. He kept to the schedule and provided constant updates and photos. Would definitely recommend him to anyone and will use him again going forward when the doggos need watching.”

“Wonderful and always communicated and sent pictures. Have already rebooked with her. Cant say thanks enough for her willingness to drive to a decent remote area of Arizona to help with my dog and cat. It takes a lot of stress off regarding my busy schedule.”

About: I have been lucky enough to have been surrounded by a variety of pets (dogs, cats, horses, pigs, chickens, fish, goats, reptiles, and small mammals) my entire life and have always taken a prominent role in caring for them. My husband and I share a deep love for animals and treat them as a part of the family and would treat yours with the same level of care. We have our own flock of chickens as well as experience with goats (including milking) so can help out with the homestead if needed! We love spoiling our pack just enough and can promise to do the same with yours. I have open availability to walk or watch your pets any day of the week. I have a part time job but it's very flexible so I can take care of the pack anytime! Safety and security first. I will always prioritize the safety of your pet above all and will make sure that when they're with me that they are monitored and supported in any way necessary.

“Thank you so much for taking care of our precious kitties!”

About: With a lifetime of animal care experience—from owning dogs, cats, and livestock to working as a kennel associate at a veterinary clinic—I provide compassionate, knowledgeable care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m familiar with first aid, reactive dogs, and rescue animals, and currently share my home with three rescue dogs and a rescue cat. I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. Your pets are in safe, caring hands. I’m currently working Monday through Friday full-time from home, and can fit my pet sitting schedule around what works best for you and your furry family members I have a fully fenced yard with access to fresh water and shade all day. I work from home and available to spend time with animals throughout the day. Currently my dogs spend most of the day in the house with me with lots of opportunities to go outside at their leisure.

About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals, as well as had plenty of my own— I work remotely and have pretty much infinite time to spend with your furry (scaly, feathery) friends! I’ve lived in friends’ houses for over two weeks to look after their animals; I’m generally pretty quiet and allow the pets come to me, but I’m happy to do tricks with them or take them out for runs and adventures when requested! I love taking lots of pictures of your pets to send you, and keeping you up to date on their health and adventures! Have also provided care for senior animals multiple times, and dealt with health crises while the owner was absent. Happy to do dogs or cats, but can also handle rodents, reptiles, etc. Have previously had: rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles/tortoises, dogs, cats, and fish. As long as you are willing to demonstrate the care of the animal, I am willing to take on pretty much anything, though! I love hanging out with animals while I’m working— they’re such good office-mates! Of course I have to leave occasionally during overnight stays, but your pets are my priority, always! Whatever attention they need, I will give them, and I will always keep my eyes and ears open for any mischief happening! I like to go through your routine with you and then try to keep everything as close to normal for your pets as possible! They’ll already be missing you— they don’t need any more stress! Food and water bowls refilled on time, walks given regularly, and as many pets, kisses, and photoshoots as required!

About: With 30+ years of life with cats & dogs, I bring calm, loving, experienced care tailored to each dog or cat’s unique needs. I pay close attention to routines, energy levels, and personalities, whether that means long walks, slow strolls, playtime, or quiet companionship. My goal is for your cat or dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for, not just watched, while you’re away. I own my own business and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because I’m in control of my day, dogs/cats get consistent attention, timely walks, meals on schedule, and plenty of companionship, never long stretches alone. This allows me to truly adapt to each dog’s/cat’s routine, energy level, and individual needs. I’m happy to care for your dog/cat in the comfort of your own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow your routines closely, i.e. walks, meals, medications, and playtime, so your dog’s/cats’s day stays familiar while you’re away. Being in their own space helps reduce stress and keeps things calm and comfortable.

“I'm so glad to have Kaitlynn as our pet sitter, she is so great with our dog! Our dog is a bit anxious and can be standoffish, and Kaitlynn is always really sensitive and knowledgeable. It means a lot to have Kaitlynn caring for my pet and home when I have a long day at work out of the house, Kaitlynn is so comprehensive and professional in her care and work. It's wonderful to be able to trust Kaitlynn's expertise and experience!”

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and understood, and I take the time to learn their individual preferences, sensitivities, and quirks. Whether your pet needs structured play, slow-paced walks, medication given on schedule, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to fit visits, drop-ins, and walks around my classes, and I always make sure I have dedicated time to give each pet the attention they need. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep feeding areas clean, tidy up any messes, and make sure the space is safe before I leave. I’m detail-oriented and safety-focused, and I never rush through visits—I want every pet to feel cared for, not just “checked on.”

“She was amazing! Pictures and notes every visit! She let me know everything going on, sent me pictures of not only my pup but of how the house looked, picked up after my clumsy dog and was on top of communication! I absolutely recommend Carmen and will use her again if I’m out of town!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for them through every stage, from playful puppies to senior dogs and those needing compassionate end-of-life care. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to each one. Whether it's playtime, walks, medication, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I'll treat your pet like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently have a very open schedule for the summer, with availability through July 27. After that, I'll be working just three days a week, leaving four full days to dedicate to caring for your furry friends. When caring for pets in my client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I also respect your home, keep you updated with photos and messages, and treat your pets like they're my own while you're away.

About: Hi there!! Besides getting to know your honorary favorite child I strive to create strong relationships with the whole family especially because I think it’s creates just a bit more serenity for the parents. I’ve house/pet sat for about the last 4 years but more consistently(monthly basis) for the last two years. The families I have stepped in for, have time and time again asked for me to come back and take care of their fur babies, there’s nothing better than coming home to a very excited pup especially when they know they’re going to get all their loving in:) ! I have grown up with all kinds of dogs, including a small 20lb chaweenie and exceeding quite large pups with the 3 English mastiffs I have had. No matter the size or age I have a well rounded experience with all of them and am very confident in my ability to bond as well as make your fur baby feel safe and happy even when they’re missing mom or dad! Currently I work in the restaurant industry and that allows for me to have most of my day open and not having to be gone an entire day (usually no more than 6 hours). Ideally them being house trained and possibly having a doggy door allows for a bit more flexibility, however if not, that is not a problem as long as I am given enough time in advance or a heads up on what your pet specifically needs so that I can effectively plan and make sure your pet is happy and healthy. My intention is to be flexible and ensure your pet stays uninterrupted in their day to day schedule and habits. Depending on family to family as each dog has their own set of specific needs and preferences, I usually go based on what they’re used to, such as a feeding schedule, exercise schedule or even a nap schedule, having that information easily accessible is something I do request especially to ensure a smooth transition away from your fur baby. I find it to be helpful especially if they have any “out of the ordinary” habits or just need extra special attention such as medication or enrichment activities. I feel that having the information especially for medications easily accessible creates just a bit more confidence and less room for error. As well as, you know them best! Anything that they might not like or things they might love help to make the time away from you just that much better for them,, I look for open communication as well as airing out any possible concerns for that time being. I understand leaving your fur baby can be hard but I know I am able to give them the love and attention they want and need.

About: I grew up surrounded by pets, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I started dog sitting for friends while in college and have loved it ever since. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work during the week, but I’m generally available in the evenings and have a flexible schedule on weekends. I’m happy to accommodate different needs whenever possible… it’s usually just a matter of coordinating schedules in advance 😊 I live in an apartment with access to a dog park right in the complex, so there is plenty of space for walks, playtime, and fresh air. I also love spending time outdoors and often visit parks, lakes, and hiking trails whenever I can. If a dog enjoys adventures, I would be happy to bring them along with me :)

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and began caring for others pets to supplement my education and journalism career. Caring for dogs helps me feel grounded! I’m currently working remote and freelance writing from Tucson so I can be flexible with your pet care needs. I can travel throughout Pima County. I make sure to ask a lot of questions, know your dogs needs and routine before any commitment. I want to ensure it’s a good fit for everyone.

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs for many years and loved taking care of my friends’ dogs. I make sure they feel safe around me and are getting the attention they need. I am at work from 8 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday but I am available after 5 on week days and any time on weekends. I will be available throughout the day on weekends. My apartment has a closed in courtyard and a gated dog park which are wonderful places to walk your dog. There is also a dog washing station.

About: I’m the girl who can walk into a home for the first time and have your pets cuddled up next to me within minutes - and I absolutely love it! With over a decade of professional experience caring for dogs and cats, I’ve been trusted by families, neighbors, and friends to walk, feed, bathe, snuggle, and play with their furry loved ones. I bring lots of energy and affection to every visit, always making sure pets feel safe, loved, and happy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I naturally keep doors closed and locked, double-check collars and leashes before walks, and stay alert to my surroundings at all times. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, and if anything ever seems off, I’ll reach out right away, prioritizing open communication. Click the link below to schedule within my availability - I’d love to meet your fur family! I work a varied schedule throughout the week anywhere from 4 hours to 8 hours (on the rare occasion). I provide extensive walk time / play time to pets I look after, and even more exercise time on the longer-shift days that I have to work. If there are requests for me to speak with my employer about leaving early for your pet, I am happy to discuss this! I always prioritize the safety of your animals by instinctually keeping the necessary doors closed/locked, checking colar/leash security before beginning walks, keeping your pet within my sight at all times, staying aware of surroundings and in control of your pet responsibly. You can count on regular photos and videos of your fur-child, and if anything seems even slightly off, I’m committed to open communication and proactively seeking solutions with your consent.

About: As a graduate of the University of Arizona with a BS in wildlife conservation I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I've been brought up most of my life with animals, mostly dogs and cats. Their company, presence is special and something I have and will enjoy for the rest of my life. I have a Staffordshire bull terrier and my dad has two cats of his own I adore. Looking to work in my future as a game warden and have experience completing a veterinary assistant certification at pima community college and a certification from durrel on completing a endangered species recovery course in the United kingdom (jersey channel islands). This is something I've been looking forward doing for a while; having a wonderful time looking after such wonderful pets. Simply when an animal is happy I'm happy. I will always take time for your pet as they deserve as much time and attention as possible which I can definitely give to them. Make sure they are always safe and having a great time with lots of play and love, they are family and will treat them as such.
