13. Hanna M.
About: I have had dogs since I was 10 years old. I also dog sat for my neighbors, family, and friends. Anything your pet needs, I’ll try my best to provide! I currently am an athlete at Arizona State University. I am away from home around 6 hours of the day for practice and class besides weekends and game days during the basketball season. Early morning and late afternoon/early evening are the most convenient times for me. I do not have a yard but I fenced in grass areas near my apartment to take your dog out to play and go potty. If you’re more comfortable with your pet staying home and me coming to check on them there I am more than willing to do that!
14. Sommer L.
“Sommer was great! She provided lots of love and attention to my cats while I was gone and she made sure to keep me updated!”
15. Alexis Z.

16. Jordan A.

18. Zack & Mariah P.
“Zack and Mariah were wonderful! I had them come over for a handful of drop ins and I received pictures and they made sure my pup was well taken care of. So awesome! Thank you!”
19. SAMAYA M.
About: I have had dogs since I was two and have been responsible for them since I left for college. I have worked with disabled animals, puppies, dogs, and cats of all ages. I have dog sat for up to 6 animals in the same household and have experience giving medications. During summer my schedule is very open, I am looking to help out with as many pups as possible. I am currently about to start school again and D1 athletics so pet care like walks and sitting at night after practice and class is what will work best. While I am out of season the weekends are also pretty available! If I am with your pets they will be getting all the attention! I love playing and snuggling with all animals depending on their personality. I pay attention to details required by there owners and am used to handling multiple animals at once. Making sure they have plenty of outside time and continue you their regular food schedule is super important to me so they feel as if nothing changes between their owners and I!
