Dog Walking Phoenix

“Renato is polite, considerate, and my dog loved him instantly. Very communicative before during and after the walk. Will definitely request him again!”

Shannon W.

“This was my first time using Rover and I am so glad that I found Megan! She was able to do a meet and greet before the actual walk took place and was very patient with Haiku (we don’t get a lot of visitors to the house, she she was jumping with excitement). Megan provided real time updates and lots of photos. So grateful to find someone who took such good care of Haiku girl!”

About: I love animals and helping them have the best time they can possibly have without their person at home. I know it can be nerve wracking to be away from your animals so I vow to make their time as enjoyable as it can be. I’ll make sure they feel just as loved and cared for as you would make them feel. I want to bring a fun and safe energy to them so you don’t have to worry. I’m open most of the time. I usually bartend but since it’s the slow season I haven’t had much work. I can fully immerse myself into caring for any animal! I can come over at any time to watch your animals. If they are feeling extra nervous I’d even be okay with staying a bit longer than agreed upon just to make them feel more comfortable. I’ll do whatever I need so they feel safe in my care.

“Tara did an amazing job looking after my corgi. She sent me updates and photos of their walks and playtime and was easy to communicate with. My pup had so much fun - I’ll definitely be rebooking with her. Thanks again ! ☺️”

“Jordan was responsive, responsible, and friendly. Went above and beyond on a short notice to take care of our dog and we’ll definitely be calling him up again!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet. I understand that each animal has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m very reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I know how important trust is when someone is caring for a beloved pet. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and needs, including shy animals, high-energy dogs, and senior pets who may need a gentler approach, extra patience, or medication reminders. I focus on creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and owners by providing consistent care, updates, and lots of affection and attention. Pet care fits very well into my routine because I have a flexible part-time schedule that gives me plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m available after 5pm Monday through Thursday, available all day on Fridays, and completely open on weekends for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household rules or routines the pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise while also keeping the home clean, secure, and respected. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means active play, reinforcing basic routines for younger pets, or providing a calm and comforting environment for more anxious pets.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I had a 106 lb German Shepherd for 8 years, and during that time I received professional training so I could properly train and care for her, giving me a strong foundation in structure, behavior, and handling larger breeds. Most recently, I lived in a home with four pets (both cats and dogs), where I helped manage daily care, routines, and lots of love and attention. I’ve also fostered animals, which has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to help pets feel safe and comfortable in new environments. What sets me apart is my ability to balance structure with affection—I’m attentive, intuitive to each pet’s needs, and experienced with different personalities, from playful and energetic to calm or senior pets who need a gentler approach. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply providing a calm, loving presence, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I work from home part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine—whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or cuddle sessions. I bring a calm, “pet concierge” approach to every visit, keeping routines smooth, spaces clean, and pets happy. From energetic dogs who love activity to cats who prefer a more relaxed, on-their-terms vibe, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality—making sure they feel safe, loved, and just a little bit spoiled. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel comfortable and at ease. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and your pet’s routine—keeping feeding schedules, walks, litter care, and any specific instructions consistent. I pay close attention to details, from securely locking doors to ensuring pets are always supervised and safe. In my home, pets are welcomed into a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and cozy spots to relax. I’m mindful of introductions, boundaries, and maintaining a stress-free atmosphere for every pet. I take a thoughtful, attentive approach—reading each pet’s behavior, keeping a watchful eye, and providing updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in very good hands.

About: I have years of experience dogsitting and housesitting for families with multiple dogs. From energetic Boxers to senior dogs to anxious dogs, I have the experience. I am new to Rover and typically have dogsat through family friends/word of mouth. Looking for some company during my WFH job during the week! I have a work from home job with limited meetings. I am available to hang out for longer periods than just a quick potty break or walk. Available during the day after 8 am CST and evenings. Weekends not available. Your dog will be treated with as much care and love as I treat my dog with. I am attentive and diligent with whatever your dog needs. Whether that be extra long pets or patience when your dog is sniffing on a walk, you can count on me. Experienced with older senior dogs and younger dogs that require extra watchful eyes for mischief. I always will leave your house in the same condition as it was when I arrived.

“Gabby is great! She is always on time and Luke absolutely loves her. So far this has been super helpful for us and I’m really grateful.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and can’t imagine a home without pets. I grew up with four dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised kittens from birth, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet snuggles, I’ll provide your pets with the love and attention they deserve. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to keep your furry family members happy and cared for! I work from home, so my schedule is extremely flexible! I’m available for early mornings, midday check-ins, evening care, and even last-minute requests. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, extra playtime, or extended care, I’ll work around your schedule to ensure they get the attention they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and explore. I live in a large apartment, offering room for them to roam and relax. We’re located right across the street from a beautiful park and just a walk away from Margaret T Hance dog park. When caring for pets, I tailor my approach to their unique needs and preferences, whether that’s quiet relaxation, playtime, or lots of walks and trips to the park. I prioritize their comfort and safety, ensuring they feel happy and at home, whether we’re indoors or enjoying the outdoors together.

About: Life long pet haver and animal lover! I have dogs and cats of my own and have been helping take care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years. I have experience with both cats and dogs from healthy to handi-capable, and from young to old! I have a veterinarian in the family so another expert opinion just a call away if ever needed. Currently I am available all week. I work from home but I am able to be fully flexible with it! I am up early in the mornings for walks before the heat or I can stay over with your critters to keep them company! I take pet care very seriously. My experience with animals over the years has helped me get comfortable with all different temperaments. I am able to adapt to energy levels to make sure every pet and pet owner gets a personalized experience. If your pet needs 24/7 attention (like my yorkipoo) then I will pet them 24/7. If your pet likes their independence or is timid then I will give them the space they need while making sure they still feel safe and comfortable. All pets are unique and it is important to treat them as such.

“We are so lucky we found Alma. She has been our dog walker consistently for the three months we needed help. She makes sure our pup is taken care of and always updates us on how he is doing. I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

Elise G.

“Cristina did such a great job with Bea! She was very communicative and did an amazing job troubleshooting when Bea was being stubborn about going on a walk. Will definitely contact again and highly recommend!”

“Sherry has been great with my pitbull. Pepper can be reactive & has alot of energy for a 10 yo dog & Sherry handles her great (even runs some of her energy out when needed) Sherry is also quick to respond, which is helpful because I tend to book last minute. Thank You Sherry!”

“Emma is an amazing and caring dog walker!! I feel so comfortable with her watching my girl!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I could remember. I simply love animals, especially dogs! I have owned and watch big dogs, small dogs, puppies, etc. I am a great communicator and flexible! I currently work fully remote in ridgewood and am very flexible in my schedule. My home is very friendly for both large and small dogs. We are in a safe neighborhood with lots of other dog walkers. Our home has plenty of open space for dogs to roam around inside.

About: When you're away, you want to know your dog is happy, healthy, and cared for like family. As a Rover client myself, I know how much thought goes into finding a sitter who will truly care for your beloved pet. More than anything, I want your dog to feel genuinely loved, not just looked after. . I understand that each dog is unique, so I'll partner w/ you and build a routine around what your pup actually needs, provide individualized attention, enrichment, and a calm, structured environment. Updates and photos will be provided as often as you want, and communication will be professional and prompt. . Centrally located in downtown Phoenix, under 15 minutes from PHX airport, in a secure building complex. My home is calm, clean, and puppy-proofed, with all dog supplies, toys, grooming products, bedding, and furnishings chosen specifically for safety and hygiene. You and your dog can expect a well-maintained, hypoallergenic-conscious environment, alongside Tater Tot (my 3.5 year old, professionally trained, spunky silky terrier) and my pup adoring partner, Justin. . Meet n' Greets are encouraged, in-person or virtual (video) to make sure it's a good fit for everyone. If your pup does better one-on-one, with gentle structure, individualized attention, and endless pampering, I'd love to meet them! . Background: . Dogs, cats, horses, aquatic pets, animals big and small - if it had fur, fins, scales, or feathers, I’ve cared for them all! I have over 40 years nurturing and loving animals: training award-winning service dogs for people who have physical disabilities, raising Clydesdale draft horses in a rural Midwestern farming community, and volunteering at PAWS, Chicago's largest no-kill shelter. A close family friend's parents worked in veterinary medicine, and I spent years shadowing their practice in the office and in the countryside. Also, I frequently travel to pet sit for friends locally and cross-country, and I'll bring that same level of trust and attentiveness to your pup. . Between my own pets and the animals I grew up around, I have real, hands-on experience with puppies, seniors, rescues, special needs, terminal illness, intestinal ailments, medications, subcutaneous fluid administration, food allergies and specialized diets, training reinforcement/techniques, behavioral issues, and grooming and hygiene best practices. . I do best with puppies (AVSAB guidelines for safety and socialization), senior dogs, pups with special diets or allergies, and dogs needing extra patience or a quieter setup. Puppies get structured routines and positive reinforcement. Seniors get a slower pace and attention to mobility and medication timing. Allergies and special diets are followed exactly. For dogs with behavioral sensitivities, whether that's noise, other animals, or new environments, I adjust the pace and space to keep them comfortable rather than forcing interaction. . My pets: . My silky terriers have always been by my side, first Addi, and now Tater Tot. Addi made the journey with me from Chicago to coastal Southern California to Phoenix, and we spent those years road tripping, hiking, camping, kayaking, and exploring together. She lived a full life to 16, including managing Cushing's syndrome and eventually renal failure with consistent, attentive medical care in her final years. That experience taught me patient, individualized care, something I bring into every dog I look after. Tater Tot, now 3.5 years old, joined our family here in Arizona after Addi crossed the 🌈 bridge. I am 100% available for your pup all day long, so pet care fits naturally into my normal routine rather than being squeezed around it. Feeding, medication, and walks happen on your dog's exact schedule, not mine. Walks are timed around Phoenix heat, always in shaded areas and during the cooler parts of the day; your dog will always be walked or get outside for a potty break regardless of temperature. Between scheduled care, I'm present in the home for calm companionship, not leaving your dog alone for long stretches. For short-term stays and overnight boarding at my residence, here's what to expect. . Household members: . - My partner works remotely. Kind-natured, with years of experience caring for friends' and family's pets. He grew up with golden retrievers, goldendoodles, and other pets. - Tater Tot, our 3.5 year old silky terrier, completed private 1:1 obedience training with a professional, certified trainer. He is fully vaccinated, on tick/flea guard and preventative heartworm medication. Responds to basic commands, plays well with other dogs, and is polite around people and animals. Adaptable in new environments, walks well on a leash, comfortable in the car, and potty-pad/crate-trained. - We don't feed our pets people food due to health/diet restrictions, but let us know if yours enjoys sharing. - Vaccination and preventative med records available if you'd like to see them. . Living conditions: . -Secure 2,000 sq. ft. residence in a gated multi-unit community, single floor, clean and puppy-proofed. Bedrooms can be gated off, and there's room to setup a pen or crate in the living area. - Your dog will always be walked or go outside for potty breaks. Timing is adjusted around Phoenix heat conditions and matched to your dog's leash comfort and energy level. Getting outside requires an elevator or four flights of stairs, which I factor into scheduling. - If your pup is potty pad trained and does not wish to be walked in the extreme heat, we've created a dedicated, secure, and hygienic potty area on our balcony (3 ft railings), since we don't have an adjoining yard. - The neighborhood is dog-friendly and walkable, a mix of homes, apartments, shops, and restaurants. Hance Park is about a mile away, and if your pup is athletic, we can drive to any local Mountain Preserve for some on-leash hiking, weather permitting.

About: Hi, I’m Hilary! I am a healthcare worker and animal lover who will make sure your pet isn’t missing out on any fun or cuddles while you’re away. My goal is to put your mind at ease with a dependable, consistent schedule and frequent updates. A little about me - I’ve lived with pets my whole life and I’m currently a proud mom to two rescue kittens. I feel comfortable working with cats and small to medium/large dogs of all ages, with a variety of medical conditions. My experience ranges from caring for kittens and puppies to senior cats and dogs, including pets with special diets and disabilities. I am open to any breed of dog and have especially extensive experience with chihuahuas and golden retrievers. I am available for walks, hikes, play time, overnight stays at your house, or quick check-ins. I’d love to get to know you and your pet, so feel free to message me with any questions! Because I work full time, my availability for walks and drop-ins is limited to evenings and weekends. I also accept house sitting requests for the weekends or for pets who are accustomed to being home alone during the day on weekdays. My house sitting rates include walks and cover up to 16 hours of care. Constant care of up to 24 hours is charged at an additional 50% of the nightly rate. I will review your safety concerns and protocols prior to any assignment, including any doors, stairs, and gates in your house, any use of crate, and any harness or leash used for outdoor activities.

“Wonderful as always, thank you!”

“Anna was such an incredible dog caretaker! It was my first time leaving my dog alone for a long time and it truly felt she loved and took care of my girl!!”
