“Daniel is so wonderful! He was so patient with me when I was a dummy and sent him the wrong address to my grandpas house that resulted in him driving around for 30 min. He took great care of our pups while we were out doing a bike race as a family. I can’t recommend Daniel enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple pets at once. Some in my home and some at their home. My friends and family have relied on me to help them with their pet. I’m currently open to any sitting right now since I’m currently not working. I have a lot of time on my hands to help out. I am a stay at home mom. I do not have any pets of my own. I have a fenced back yard. Not too big but big enough for furry friends. Furry friends are welcome in my home as well and on the couch.
“Kathy is the best! She is reliable, knowledgeable, jovial, and truly loves animals. After our return from three weeks abroad, we could tell that Kathy gave our two puppies lots of attention and love. They also became more social and calmer with people and Kathy trained them to listen better. Although the puppies' wellbeing was the most important to use in selecting a friend for them, Kathy was also a great house sitter, instrumental in helping us connect with an A/C repairman across continents and kept everything neat and running. Thank you, Kathy!”


“Robert draws upon his many years of experience to provide unparalleled care. My German Shepherd took an immediate liking to him. Robert took care our dog and home in an extremely professional manner, being prompt, neat and courteous while also providing constant correspondence. I highly recommend Robert for any dog care or house services. I couldn’t have been more impressed.”

About: I previously worked at an animal shelter where I would walk, feed, clean up after and assist in the grooming of both cats and dogs. I am also trained with both younger and older pets and am capable of giving them any medication they make be currently taking. I am currently taking all of my classes online so I do have quite a bit of free time to take care of your pet(s). At the moment I am not taking any dog walking appointments in the afternoon.

About: Hi! Available for (much of) Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, including Ft Huachuca. I grew up on a farm, worked at a vet clinic, and have always had animals and pets when my life permitted. I have a passion for our furry "family members" as well as learning all different types of animal behavior. Dogs, cats, horses, cows, donkeys, fish, and even took care of a camel a time or two. My professional and athletic life has taken me around the world, and frankly, caring for pets of family, friends and neighbors throughout the years has still always been a most gratifying highlight! I have the patience and energy to match dogs of all temperaments, so let me know how I can support you and your family! If my profile is visible, it means I have plenty of time to help out with your furry family members, be it pet-sitting, walking, or just checking in on them. I have a highly-flexible schedule and a vehicle large enough to crate/transport if needed. As far as housesitting, depending on the proximity, would be flexible on either daily check-in and/or possibly overnights. Please reach out in advance to discuss. I live on a large ranch but do prefer to keep them leashed when walking (until I know they heel well AND to keep YOU more confident). I'm flexible on this based on consults with you. They would sleep indoors, and if you prefer, I could easily crate as well. Non-smoking home. You can bet I'll treat them as my own!
About: I attended veterinary school and have a strong passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I’m outgoing, sweet, and very patient, which helps me build trust quickly with pets and their owners. I have experience with feeding routines, administering basic care, and recognizing when something isn’t right. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and animals that may need extra attention or reassurance. I also have two dogs of my own—one I’ve raised since a puppy and another that I adopted—so I understand the responsibility, love, and attention pets need every day. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness while you’re away. Pet care is my primary focus, and my flexible part-time schedule allows me to be available for your pets throughout the entire day. I am fully available for morning check-ins, afternoon walks, and overnight boarding. Whether your dog needs an early walk to start their day or your cat needs breakfast and playtime, I can accommodate those needs every day of the week. My open availability on weekends also makes me a great fit for long-term boarding or house-sitting, ensuring your pets are never alone for long and always have a consistent companion nearby I am committed to providing a secure and loving environment for every pet I host or visit. In my home, I have a large, fenced-in yard where dogs can play safely, and my two friendly resident dogs are great at welcoming new friends. I am also very comfortable using crates if that is part of your pet's routine. When I’m in your home, I stay vigilant about safety—checking that gates are closed and doors are locked. Whether I am visiting in the early morning or staying late into the evening, I provide constant supervision and plenty of updates so you know your pets are in good hands.
“Great experience with Josh— responsive, kind, caring and responsible. We have a full house over here with one particularly complicated big dog and he juggled the crew really well and everyone was happy upon my return. I appreciated him asking questions and keeping me updated throughout the trip! He even offered to stay later to feed them if I got back later than originally anticipated. I look forward to booking again! Thanks Josh!!”
