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.

“We absolutely love Thomas!! Jingle learned so much when he is with her. Thomas is very patient and explains everything he is doing while he is working with jingle. I would highly recommend him if you have any concerns over training your new puppy or even a dog that's a little bit older”

About: I want to open our home for dogs that need to feel loved and comforted while their family is away. I have had a pet most of my life. Different breeds from a small terrier to large dogs. Currently we have an older lab that loves everyone. We choose a Labrador after training puppies with Guide Dogs for the Blind for 5years. I like fun energetic pets as well as slow moving or special needs. I will take pictures and videos so you can see how your family pet is doing. We retired to Green Valley 13 years ago. One of us is always home, but I will be the primary care given for your pet. I greatly appreciate the opportunity to care for your precious family member. My husband and I are retired and home full time.With a fenced back yard for your pet. And many areas to walk . If you have an early riser, I'm up at 5:30 daily. Our home has an enclosed front court yard. And a 3ft6inch brick wall in back. I keep only plants I can see under for the safety of my animals.

“Michelle is the best! The dogs and me love her.”

About: Hi! I am Susan. I live in Goodyear, AZ with my two dogs Jimmy and Bambi. I am home most of the day except when I work which is only a few hours three days per week. I am also one of the Rover Premier Sitters who has undergone advanced screening that culminated in a face-to-face in-home interview with a home inspection. I believe there is really something special about every dog. I appreciate having the chance to care for your best friends and welcome them into my family. With my experience as a veterinary technician for over thirty years, I can promise you won’t be worried leaving your dog with the Rover Premier Sitter. Your dogs will be happy and really on their own vacation while you are gone. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you and your dog(s)! Why I love dog sitting I have always been a dog lover ever since I was a child. I became a veterinary technician when I was 18 years old, and I am currently still active in the field 30 years later. I also have a friend who is a veterinarian who lives nearby. Meet my pets I have two very friendly small dogs: Jimmy and Bambi who are Chihuahua mixes. All my dogs love other dogs and are up to date on their vaccines. About my yard My yard is completely enclosed by an 8 foot fence with an overhang as well as a snake mesh. I am a certified veterinary technician. I am semi-retired so my work hours are minimal and flexible. My life revolves around my pets so they are always a priority as your pet would be also. My fence was designed for maximum safety. There is an overhang present to prevent predators from climbing over. There is also a snake mesh present to keep out snakes and other dangerous pests.

“Alexia took great care of my elderly dog who has a complex food and medication routine. Alexia was very responsive as well. I would highly recommend Alexia and hope to be a repeat customer!”

About: Ive been around dogs my entire life and have had three yellow labs. I have always loved to walk dogs and it’s always been my responsibility to exercise my family’s dog. I’d bring them on multiple walks a day and sometimes even bring them hiking through the woods which is always their favorite. I’ve taken care of my friends and other family members dogs when they are gone. I’m taking online classes so my schedule is pretty flexible so I would be able to take care of your pet and walk them for however long you want me too.

If I’m taking care of your dog at home I will follow any directions you give me to take care of your dog and go above and beyond.

About: I have always loved animals, and grew up with cats, dogs, and chickens. I'm a strength & conditioning specialist who loves nature and being outdoors with pets! My experience includes dogs of all breeds, pigs, birds, and cats. I enjoy helping dogs feel more confident in their surroundings and I really like Ian Dunbar's positive reinforcement philosophy in dog training. I have volunteered with diverse dog clubs in San Francisco from day cares to fitness runs in the park. My goal is to help your dog be happier through consistent exercise. Enjoying the great outdoors with a furry friend is something I looked forward to every day when I had a dog! I hope to meet you and your fur baby who I will love as my own :) Pet care is apart of my daily routine; keeping my chickens and cats fed, clean, and comfortable in their living and play areas with treats and toys available for entertainment. I have a 12' fully fenced back yard and smaller mobile gates to add boundaries as necessary. Indoor space available on hot days and as needed.

About: Animals deserve the best of care at all times, even when their families can't provide it at all times. From dogs who love to cuddle and hate the outside heat to dogs whose energy never reaches its end, there is one way or another to break our 'species' barrier and connect~ Walks can take any length of time multiple times a day, usually I always have treats with me on walks and work on the dog not pulling on it's leash and doing occasional sits and 'look at me's. House sitting is usually better for me on weekends if required overnight, but my schedule as a remote worker and student is very flexible <3 I’m currently working as a dog trainer, it is my main source of income. I also have a service dog in training which I constantly work with and have cared for multiple pets through out the days fitted into my schedule. I am always doing my best to keep a watchful eye on the dogs while allowing them room to adjust to me and their environment . I encourage freedom and play in dogs with safety in mind.

About: I’ve had the privilege of raising my Doberman since she was a puppy, which has given me extensive experience in training, socializing, and caring for her as she grows. I’m well-versed in managing her high energy levels through regular exercise, play, and training sessions. I’ve developed a strong bond with her, understanding her needs for mental stimulation, positive reinforcement, and structure. From her puppyhood to adulthood, I’ve cared for her every step of the way, learning how to meet her individual needs—whether it’s adjusting exercise routines, maintaining a healthy diet, or addressing behavior issues. I’m committed to providing consistent care, love, and attention to ensure she remains happy, healthy, and well-adjusted. Pet care is an essential part of my daily life. Each morning starts with a walk to help my Doberman burn off energy and set the tone for the day. After feeding her, we spend time training, playing, or engaging in mentally stimulating activities. Throughout the day, I make sure she has opportunities for exercise, whether it's a backyard session or a game of fetch. On a weekly basis, I adjust her routine to ensure a mix of physical activity, mental stimulation, and relaxation. I set aside time for grooming, health checks, and reinforcing positive behaviors. I also stay on top of her diet and adjust exercise based on her energy levels, always making sure she’s balanced and happy. Whether it’s early mornings, mid-day breaks, or evening wind-downs, my dog’s needs are woven into every part of my routine, creating a structured yet flexible schedule for both of us. Whether in my own home or a client's, I provide consistent, loving care. I follow familiar routines—feeding, walks, playtime, and training—ensuring pets feel secure and happy. In a client's home, I make sure their pets are comfortable, safe, and well-cared for, with regular updates to keep owners informed. My goal is to offer peace of mind while treating every pet like my own.
