“Elvira is wonderful - she made time to come meet me and my pup before the visits started so everyone would feel comfortable. She was prompt, locked everything up when she left, sent me lots of pictures and communication, and carries treats in her bag :) 10/10!”


“Sarah has been an amazing cat sitter! She took exceptional care of our cats while we were on vacation, keeping us updated every step of the way. Her kindness and love for our kitties truly shone through. She went above and beyond to ensure they were happy and well cared for. We couldn’t be more pleased and highly recommend her services!”


“AMAZING IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT! Allison was so thorough during our meet and greet to learn my fur child’s preferences, schedules and quirks. My doggie is a rescue who can be very timid with strangers and has never really taken to a care taker, until now. Allison was so patient with her during her check ins and let her warm up at her own speed, and took fantastic care of her. She is very communicative every step of the way, sends lots of pictures, and gave updates on her meals and potty breaks. Within just a couple days my little doglet warmed up and fell in love! I’m so thrilled to have found such an excellent and reliable care taker to look after my child during my work trips! 10000/10 would absolutely recommend 😊”

About: I have grown up with animal my whole life and have 9 years professional experience working at vet clinics and the Phx Zoo. I have a degree in Biology and spend my free time exploring outside and bird watching. I would love to spoil your fur babies as if they were my own. I currently am available most weekdays and very open on weekends. My current work schedule is flexible. Available for drop ins and walks as needed. I currently have 2 friendly dogs and one very loving cat who thinks he is a dog. We also had a bearded dragon so I have some experience in exotic pets if needed.

“Cassady kept me up to date on what was going on. She sent pictures and I know she gave lots of attention to my kitty over the weekend. She is very flexible with her schedule as well!”


“Kylel was the perfect sitter for our cat while we were away. He followed all of our instructions perfectly, was very professional and kind taking care for Fern :). Would definitely recommend!”


About: I’ve loved small dogs since I was a kid. I grew up with a few very sweet ones who taught me how affectionate and fun they can be. I’m most comfortable with small breeds and enjoy spending time playing, cuddling, and taking care of them with lots of love. I live with my husband and my mom, and we all enjoy having dogs around. Your pup will be in a safe, calm, and caring environment where they’ll be treated like family. While I’m not used to handling very large dogs, I’m very responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy taking care of furry little ones. My English is limited, but I speak the universal language of love and care for dogs and that’s all they really need. What pets can expect during their stay: A calm, safe, and affectionate environment. I follow their routines, offer playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention so they feel comfortable and at home. How you’ll make their stay comfortable: I work part-time, which allows me to adjust my schedule during the week and be available at different times. My mom also helps me, so your dog will always have company, fresh water, a clean space, walks, and lots of love. I’ll also send regular updates and photos!
