“Jazmyne was wonderful! We booked very last minute after realizing we needed help for our long vacation and she was very accommodating and helpful with that. Her check ins with pictures were reassuring while we were away and she did such a great job taking care of our cats. It was also our first time using Rover and she helped with the app and made the experience great. We highly recommend and intend to rebook for our next trip!”
“Our dogs were super happy being tended to by Brianna. She’s very reliable and communicated with us on every visit which we appreciate so much. We loved getting pictures and updates. We would highly recommend her to care for your fur baby.”


About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, and am familiar with many other kinds of animals. I have sat for non-family/friends and well as them included many times before! I have managed taking care of 5+ pets at once, given proper meds, care, playtime, etc. This experience ranges from kittens/puppies just a few days old, to older aged animals. I work “full time” but I work around 30 hours and I have a lot of split shifts so time before or after to check-in with the pets. This looks like morning feed, going outside, if any meds or vitamins need to be taken or same with after depending on the time of day needed. Depending on circumstances of boundaries and rules of each pet, I easily find a solution and adapt if needed. I will watch your dog/cat outside or on a leash front or back of yard. If there are off-limit areas inside our outside those will be closed doors or if there’s a gate it will be put up per clients request. If there needs to be check-ins with owner that be applicable, I am attentive to my phone, when and if necessary.
About: I've taken care of many of my friends pets, dogs and cats when they are away. I absolutely love doing it! Pets are part of the family! I am currently working part time doing instacart so I am on the road and can stop whenever I need to let them out or take them on a walk. I am also starting school this summer so I will be available after classes as well. I usually stay over at my friend's house whenever they are gone to watch their fur babies. So they feel comfortable and safe in there own space.
“Samantha was great! On the last day of our trip our rascal pups got all muddy in the yard and she helped clean them up and make sure our home wasnt too dirty when we got back. We didnt ask, she was just helpful and thoughtful without a word or hesitation. Awesome!”

“Taylor is a wonderful and dedicated sitter. She kept us informed each day on how our two kitties, Bella and Rudy, we doing. Sent us photos and videos which we truly appreciated. We highly recommend Taylor.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up with two family dogs for 18 years, and caring for pets has just always come naturally to me. I also foster dogs, cats, and small critters, so I have experience with pets of all personalities, ages, and needs Pet care fits so naturally into my day because I genuinely love having animals around me. My schedule is super flexible. I’m in part-time school and work part-time so I have plenty of time. When pets are in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I keep a close eye on them at all times making sure they’re safely leashed outside, supervised during playtime, and always comfortable. I follow whatever routines they’re used to, like feeding schedules, crate time, or potty breaks, so they feel calm and at home. There’s always lots of love, attention, and gentle structure to keep them happy and safe. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, respect is everything to me. I treat your space the same way I’d want mine treated clean, careful, and mindful of your rules. Whether I’m staying overnight or just stopping by for a walk, I make sure your pet gets all the care they need while also keeping your home tidy, secure, and exactly how you left it. I’m very routine friendly, so I happily follow your pet’s normal schedule, house rules, and comfort needs.
About: I've been taking care of pets since age 8. I've walked both big dogs and small dogs. I also am very good with cats. I volunteered at The Southern Arizona Humane Society. This os my first time doing this for pay. I have a lot to learn but I'm a fast learner. I also helped my girlfriend take care of her grandma and have experience transporting pets to the vet. I was recently let go from my job at Carmax so I have open availability. I can do pretty much devote all of my time to any care you need. I unfortunately am unable to bring animals I care for home because I have 4 cats who are wary of other animals. However, I am able to travel long distances to care for them in your home. I also am willing to take your pets to the vet.

“Beth has taken great care of our bulldogs - both while house sitting and stopping in for walks/feeding time. She’s reliable and communicates with us, sending frequent photos and updates. Will continue to rely on Beth when we need help with the pups!”
“Rachel is amazing. Great communication and flexibility when doing drop-ins with my Dog. She took good care of him and went well beyond what I expected. Definitely going to be requesting her again.”

I am thrilled for the opportunity to take care of your baby- I am a fast learner and detail oriented! I am currently home for the summer, and a huge animal person! I have a lot of free time and I could not think of a better way to spend my summer then taking care of your baby/babies!

“Gianna was awesome taking care of our two dogs while we were away. She is reliable, caring and thorough. I left specific care instructions and she followed them perfectly. I will definately be booking with her in the future. Thanks!”

About: I have had pets my entire life. Growing up we had 5 dogs and 4 cats. I had 2 dogs through college on my own. My late dog had severe medical conditions, I am well versed in giving medications and trained in administrating saline fluids for dogs. Our animals are our family. I will provide the best care and love to your fur baby while watching them. I currently work full time Monday through Friday 6 am to 2:30 pm. I am available anytime after 2:30 pm and fully available on weekends. I would care for your pet in your home. I believe keeping pets in their own homes keeps them the most comfortable while you are away.
