Dog Sitting Scottdale

“Mirabella did a wonderful job checking in on our cats on short notice. She kept the dishes full, cleaned the boxes, and provided photos of the ones she managed to spot. Will book again!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, including German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, and Shih Tzus. I currently have a Chihuahua of my own, so I understand how much our pets mean to us. I’m comfortable with both large and small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and will treat your dog like family while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m happy to communicate about your pet’s specific routine and needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets safe and supervised, and make sure they have everything they need. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine.

About: I was originally pre-vet and also worked kennel technician jobs, so I have years of experience with dog/cat pet care and medicine administration. I am comfortable caring for any age of pets. I am currently working full time Monday-Friday from 7:30-4. I work from home Monday and Friday, so I have more flexibility those days. I am free every Saturday and Sunday. I also get all holidays off, and am usually available those days/holiday weekends. My apartment complex has a dog park area and I have a personal fenced back area. It is mostly concrete but has some flower beds. I have a cat in my home, and he has been tested with other dogs/cats and keeps to himself. He can be closed off in my room if needed. There is also a guest bedroom that has nothing of importance in there, so if there’s a situation where you’d prefer a safe quiet space for a potentially anxious pet, that should be perfect. I can cater my space to your pet and will give them all the love they want.

“Caitlin was extremely kind, prompt and helpful throughout the entire experience! I would highly recommend her to anyone and look forward to hopefully working with her again in the future.”

About: I may be new to Rover, but I’ve been a lifelong dog lover! My boyfriend, Shaun, is also my business partner. We live together, and he is just as great with dogs. Having both of us means your pup gets extra attention, care, and love. I grew up with our family dog, Ruby, a sweet 25 lb terrier who lived to be 16 years old. She truly had the best life, and I was so lucky to have her by my side growing up. In college, my roommates and I adopted a 7 year old, 55 lb Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix named Peaches. She quickly became our best friend, especially during COVID. After graduation, I took full custody of her. While it was a difficult decision, I eventually had to rehome her when I accepted my dream job, which required frequent travel. The good news is that she’s now living her best life on a flower farm in Alabama with a family friend, spending her days running through fields and playing with her 26 farm cat siblings. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to travel the world and pursue graduate school. I just graduated with a MPH and am excited to open up my availability for bookings as I save for a celebration trip next year! In addition to Rover, I’ve also been active on Wag with 100+ walks, drop ins, and boardings over the past four years. I truly love dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Let’s connect soon :) I currently work as a part time nanny from 2-6pm Mon-Fri and I’m free most weekends when I’m home. I understand that your pups are in a new place so being with them when they’re in my care is my top priority. Shaun works from home so your pup will always have a companion when staying at our home! My neighborhood has an awesome fenced dog park that is maintained daily. The dog community here is also very friendly and understanding if dogs need their personal time in the park. There is also a nature preserve right across the street from me that is super safe and monitored so your pups will be getting their maximum required exercise when they stay with me!

About: I love dogs and pets in general. I am more than happy to take care of your pets. Thank you for this opportunity. Thanks everyone! Pet care fits into my routine once I am able to wake up in the morning. Make sure why dog goes outside to go potty. I have a nice porch that the dogs could relax on if need to. I am willing to care emotionally for them as well. Awrf!

“Tayla was amazing. Very kind and went above and beyond for the care of my cats. She sent back a ton of pictures and videos with some notes after each check-in. She was super easy to communicate with as well! I felt like I could fully enjoy my trip knowing my girls were being checked on by someone who cares. Will definitely book again!!!”

“Lyric is 10/10 recommend for sitting your puppies. They fell in love with her in a day and I was sad to see the visits in because they will be looking for her. I will book her in the future 10000000%. Thank you Lyric for taking care of my precious pups.”

About: I have experience caring for my own dog as well as pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding routines, crate training, and providing a calm, structured environment for dogs of all sizes. I am a teacher so I am currently on summer break. This means I have a very open schedule to provide pet services. Inbox me to learn more! I have both a front and back yard, but they are not fenced, so all dogs are always safely supervised and kept on a leash while outside. Inside, I provide a clean, calm, and comfortable environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at home. Max is my friendly, well-socialized rescue dog who loves meeting and playing with other dogs. He’s gentle, adaptable, and does well with different personalities and energy levels.

“Another fun visit with Maria! Bentley and Maria have clearly bonded. He was happy to see her and enjoyed cuddles and belly rubs. Maria even thought to put dog shows on the tv to keep him company until I got home. Thank you Maria - we will see you again soon!”

“Emily did a great job. We have one cat the does not like most people and will hide when someone new comes over. Emily said she came out during one of her visits. I was amazed and surprised to hear that. That tells me a lot about Emily, if Una will come out of hiding while she was there. I will definitely use Emily's again. Thank-you Emily!!”

About: I was born to my family who already owned 2 dogs and then I have always had a dog ever since until I went to university. Since I don’t currently have my own, I love to spend time caring for dogs whenever I can! I am very experienced with giving medicine of all types (topical, oral, in food), adhering to specific schedules and food preparations, as well as basic hygiene like bathing or brushing. I grew up around bigger dogs and smaller dogs and as a sitter have had the most experience with medium to small dogs. I am currently working two part-time jobs in the mornings typically. Generally, my evenings after 6 pm I keep free for pet-sitting and I generally try to keep my Sundays and Mondays free aside from an appointment or two virtually. My experience with pet-sitting in NYC has been through house-sitting or by checking in on the pets at least twice a day (morning and night). The majority of my care happens at the client’s residence and I like to gather all the information for the pet’s schedule and routine from the family before I care for them. I believe in clear communication and giving regular updates to the family to ensure that the care their pet is receiving is the very best it can be and in-line with what they are used to in their daily lives.

“Jeremiah was fantastic! He took great care of our crazy lab and two cats lol! He was very communicative and made sure to reach out promptly if any questions came up. He also was flexible, which was great for us. I know our pets were well taken care of. I 100% recommend!”

“Jaquana took wonderful care of our two pups! She was timely and communicative and clearly loves our pups. Will definitely book again!”
