About: I’ve head pets for as long as i can remember and I've Dogs specifically since 2012. Im a super huge dog person and have dog/house sit for my own pets and for others. Im currently a full-time student at ASU and will be available at random but likely will be available on weekends and Wednesday and Friday. But for the most part i will make myself available at random. I am currently living in a small apartment near campus and don’t pet supplies at my own home. But i can get some if necessary. And if they were to stay at my place i have two roommates who don’t mind dogs in the slightest and no pets.
“Claudia was amazing! She came by beforehand to do a meet and greet. During her booking she included lots of pics and was sure to include a detailed update on how my kitty was doing. I would most certainly recommend Claudia to watch your fur baby!”
“Kylee was amazing! She stopped by on such short notice and was very kind! My puppies even loved her! Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you so much!”
About: I grew up with a dog my whole life and have cared for friends pets many times. I’ve watched big and small, as well as a variety of breeds. I work a hybrid schedule so I would have many opportunities to care for your furry friends. On weekdays and I am available after 5:00PM and weekends are fully open! While I am unable to board your pet in my apartment, my top priority would be to make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy in their own home. If needed, I will be sure to follow any rules or restrictions set forth by you as the owner.
“Taylor was great! Our dogs can be a little tricky, but she did great with them! She was very punctual, provided lots of information after each visit, and made sure to keep us updated!”
“Jovita was so awesome! So so good w/ both my dogs, one with past trauma leading to aggression at times. She gave him the space he needed all while filling his needs (potty breaks and food). She kept me updated, sent pics, and was great communicating. I will request her again any day to take care of my pups. Highly recommend!”
“Lorissa is absolutely the best! Leo loves her just as much as me now it seems. She sent so many photos while I was on vacation to make sure I knew he was ok. I highly recommend her to check on your sweet pets! :)”
“Abigail is amazing! We needed someone to watch our two dogs and she took such great care of them. One of our dogs is a bit stubborn and Abigail managed to make her comfortable. We will be reaching out again in the future. Thank you!”
“Very sweet person! I can see the love for animals she has, I knew my cat was in amazing hands. Highly recommend Avery for watching your pets and I’ll come back to her for future drop-in visits!”
About: I've loved animals and had a childhood dog, Chubby (a suspected spitz mix). But as a grad student who can't stay in the same place forever, I don't have the stability to have my own dog these days. I would love to help others take care of their babies! I am very patient and love taking walks. During the summer, I'll be working part time teaching Korean in the middle of the day. I am available in the early morning, late afternoon, and evenings Mondays through Thursday, and all day most Fridays and weekends. I am very mindful of pet safety--my cat is indoors only and he's never escaped or gotten lost (except for a 30-second adventure when he was a kitten), and I'm very patient with dogs on leashes and won't let them pull or run off.
About: Hello, I’m an ASU nursing student and manager of a coffee stand. I grew up with dogs, cats, and bunnies. I don’t have my own dog currently as I have a cat and a bunny in my apartment, but I miss spending time and playing with them so I love taking on dog sitting gigs from friends and families! I would love to watch your dog, take them on walks, play with them, and feed them. I will be free over summer aside from my coffee job. I work mostly in the early mornings, but am free after 12pm when I work! I am available on the weekends and weekdays. I value spending time with your fur baby. I will safely follow any rules and expectations you have in your home and make sure your pet is receiving the same love and care as you would give them!
About: I have had my dog Teddy since I was 13. I’ve seen him in many different stages and how his care and needs have changed now that he is a senior. I am very attentive and detail oriented and can walk your dog as needed. I am an online grad student so my schedule is very flexible! I also currently have a fully remote internship that I can do anywhere. When in a client’s home I follow any and all instructions that are given as well as sticking to the pet’s routine if they have one

“Lexi is a sweet, caring, honest and fun loving young woman. She can be relied on to do a great job and would be an excellent choice as the person to take care of your pet. She loves our dog, Bella so much and is so good with her. Bella loves her too and gets so excited when she comes to visit because Bella knows Lexi will spoil her with love and attention. Her work ethic is top notch and she has excelled at every job she has had. Her employers learn quickly what a great asset she is to their company. She is a quick learn and exceeds the expectations of the position she holds. Her employers speak highly of her and enjoy having her as a part of their team.

Claudia was great! My elderly cat needed the extra visits for feedings but all the cats needed to be fed while I was gone. My elderly gent and his younger brother immediately took to Claudia and she gave them all the loves. The photos at each visit let me know my fluffs were doing well.
Amazing service!! I had a last-minute longer term booking and I was worried I wouldn't find a sitter in time, much less one that would care for my cat as I would. Kimberly was a perfect match and shows up always attentive, always compassionate for my Lily girl. She really pays attention to all of her needs and caters to her uniqur personality. Lily seems to love her company and I'm so so grateful💓 Kimberly also regularly checks in to ask questions and send pics, the communication is spectacular! 12/10 recommend
Alyssa is fabulous! She went above and beyond to ensure that our kitties were well looked after while my husband and I were on vacation. She sent thorough text updates and lots of pictures after each visit, and our kitties were calm and happy when we returned home. Which is a great sign that they felt safe and comfortable while we were away! Alyssa was great with our shy kitties, and they loved her. We will definitely (hopefully) be booking with Alyssa again in the future!
Jordan was fantastic! I was apprehensive because I have never used a sitter outside of friends and family before. She was phenomenal! I was completely at ease with her taking care of our cat. She sent updates throughout the day. Even more phenomenal, there was an issue with a key to our home where the key broke inside the lock. Jordan went to the hardware store and got the key replaced without our asking her to. She was fantastic and we will definitely utilize her services in the future! I can’t speak highly enough of her.
Mel was great, she did a fantastic job taking care of our Nessie, you could see Nessie really liked Mel and we loved getting all the pictures and report cards for each and every visit. Would highly recommend Mel and will be happy to reach out to her next time we need a sitter or walker.
