“Kelly took care of Aiko for the second time and she was great! Aiko really seemed to enjoy her stay. I'm so glad we found her, she's super reliable. Aiko can be a little shy, but she warmed right up to Kelly. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Aiko is in good hands. I would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a pet sitter. We'll definitely be booking her again. Thanks again Kelly!”
“A huge thank you to Celeste for accepting our booking at such short notice! Really great communication with pictures of our dog throughout the stay. If we are in the area again, we would definitely rebook!”
“Coco had another wonderful vacation at Adriana and Kayla’s. When we pulled up to her house, he was very excited. He pulled me on the leash all the way up to her front door. That is not what he normally does and it made me laugh. It is such a blessing to know, that when we drop him off with Adriana that he is well taken care of his needs are met and exceeded. She sends great pictures and I get to see that he is having a great time and he’s also getting his rest and at his age he needs his rest. I highly recommend Adriana her home is beautiful, warm and caring.”
“Veronica and family were amazing with our Deja! Multiple updates and pictures everyday. It was very apparent right from the start that they would take extra care of Deja. They worked with Deja on using the doggy door for the first time and loved her little quirks. I would 100% bring Deja back for sitting.”
“Brandon & his family did a great job with our dog Buck. It was a last minute situation and he graciously took him in. Brandon has a great way with dogs. He had a big yard that is fenced in and a doggie door which let Buck go in and out, smell things and run. He was also taken on walks and given lots of attention. I highly recommend Brandon as a dog sitter. We also received pictures twice a day.”
“Christina was absolutely amazing! She watched my dogs for 3 days and truly went above and beyond anything I could have asked for. She eased all of my anxiety and kept me updated, which meant so much. Most importantly, my dogs had an absolute blast with her! I will definitely be using her for any future boarding needs—I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Steven responded quickly to my last minute request. Excellent communications, constantly updated us with pictures of our pup. Definitely will take my dog to him. Thank you Steven!”
“She is amazing with our dog Axel! Sends lots of updates while we are away. We always know our dog is in good hands while we are gone! Thank you again for taking such good care of our boy!”
“Rebecca and her lovely family took such wonderful care of Jasper and Winnie! My pups enjoyed all the extra play time and attention the children showered on them. They loved running and playing in their huge backyard too. I do believe Winnie and Jasper were actually smiling when I picked them up :) We would love to come back for another stay, thank you!!”
“I was really in a bind, I was in Michigan, and my sister is in Mesa. She needed an overnight dog sitter and couldn't use Rover. I signed up , found James and Erin. I made the arrangements for my sister. Duffy got dropped off. My sister ended up needing surgery so the arrangements had to be extended and they accommodate us in a heartbeat! They both couldn't have been better! Can't wait to use them again! Debbie”
“Where do I start? I'll just start like this, Mrs Laree was the greatest. She helped with my concerns fir My Daisy as this was the longest we had been away from her. Her daily updates, and photos were very nice as well.”
“Stacy was so amazing with our old boy Tuxx! So attentive and kept us informed of his happy vacation. We are so grateful to her for taking such great care of Tuxx. We loved all the pictures she sent. It was such peace of mind knowing he was well taken care of and loved while we were gone.”
“Sharon did an outstanding job making my lab feel right at home. She sent videos and pictures to let me know he was happy and having an enjoyable time on his vacation. She played with him, took him for walks and treated him like a member of her family. She has a nicely fenced in back yard and dog friendly pool. I would highly recommend Sharon if you need a dog sitter.”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Eric! The communication was incredible—updates everyday, along with adorable photos and videos. Oliver even had his very first modeling photoshoot with Eric. It just showed how much care and attention he was giving to Oliver! He truly went avice and beyond. Eric gave so much attention and patience to Oliver as a puppy. I am truly grateful! This was an incredible pet-sitting experience! Oliver was in the absolute best hands. I highly recommend Eric!!! THANK YOU for taking such great care of my boy!!!”
“Krysten is phenomenal! Excellent communication, knowledgeable of best practices for overall well being of dogs in her care, walked/biked the pups each day, plenty of cuddles, so many pictures and videos. 12/10 experience overall.”
“Coco is very shy. Lynn worked with her and she felt more secure as time passed. She was very attentive to Coco and her medication needs. We felt comfortable leaving her with Lynn and her family. Lynn allowed us to do a meet and greet, and Coco was able to meet her. It was very stressful for us to leave her with someone, we are so glad that Lynn was the one that helped us. we have never used anyone like Rover until now.”
“This is the second time we have used Steven and his family to care for our dog while we were on vacation and not able to bring her! Everything was easy and Edna was well cared for! She even remembered were we were going at drop off and got excited💙 Thank you Steve and family for making it a little easier to leave our pup and not worry!!!”
“Louise was seriously awesome! She took care of my cat so well, feeding her and playing with her like I do. She even sent me cute pics. I'm really grateful for her help and I'll definitely ask her again next time I'm out of town. If you need someone to watch your furball, Louise is the way to go! Thankyou soo much :)”

“Shea is absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my Thena while I was away. Athena took such a liking to her, she was cuddling and showing all her tricks to her. She made Athena comfortable, she made me feel assured. She completes all the check lists, communicates well, clean, super sweet and loving! The perfect cat sitter! Will definitely reach out in the future!”

“Fiona is absolutely amazing! She took fantastic care of both of my cats while I was away for a month. She is extremely responsible and sweet, and my cats immediately loved her. I could not recommend her more to pet sit!”
“Adam is very responsive, he is dependable and on time, he took great care of my cats and gave good updates. It was very reassuring. My cat hisses at everyone, but did not hiss at Adam once! He has a way with cats. 10/10 would book again and I recommend him highly!”
“Aleana was nothing short of amazing with taking care of Bruce and I am so grateful!!! She followed all instructions that I had and was calm and caring with my wonderful Bruce :) I am so happy , thank you!!”
“Lance was great with checking in on my cat. My cat has experienced a new move and is still nervous and uneasy as he settles in. He can use extra attention at this moment when I’m not around. I appreciate the patience Lance gave him when checking in and even ensured the liter box, food and water was in good standing. I would book Lance again and would recommend him for anyone’s pet needs!”

“Courtney has provided excellent care for Sonic over the past few months. She is attentive, caring, punctual, friendly, and reliable. The first time she ever cared for Sonic, she had to do wound care for his leg injury. She followed all the directions to a "T" and provided detailed updates. This was just one example of Courtney's excellent and professional care. Sonic is an anxious dog but he seems to adore her every time she's here! We enjoy working with Courtney and can't recommend her enough!”

“Amazing care! They’re such kind individuals and really enjoy taking care of you’re furry friends and family. They made sure she played lots and she was feed as well. I also enjoy knowing that she is playing and enjoying time with other dogs and with Lauree & Keith! Thank you so much and I will definitely be coming back!!”
About: I've had many dogs in my life. Almost my entire life. I've taken care of all kinds since I was a kid. My own, my family's & friend's pets as well. Your pets will be a good hands, treated like royalty, but not too spoiled... I'm recently retired. Any errands I need to run, I take care of before, or after, a sitting job. So when I'm sitting your furry family member, my time is their time. At my home, I have a decent sized, enclosed, backyard. And an extra large dog door, so they can come in & out as they wish. In your home, I would adhere to your wishes and routines for your loved one. Walks, treats, cuddling... Whatever your pup is used to, I can provide. And I am pet CPR certified
“Katie was very easy to work with and Sally & Millie seemed to enjoy their day with Katie and her husband! We’re in AZ for 3 weeks and we’ll definately use her again should we need a sitter for our girls!! Thanks again Katie for the short notice and for the pictures throughout the day!!”
“I read about Sarah and the reviews were all very positive and she completely met all expectations. This visit was a shorty visit warming uo for a longer stay. My JRT is 12 years old and very anxious and clingy to me but he did so well with Sarah and her beagle Taylor. Yea highly recommend Sarah. Milo will be returning for sure.”
“Perfect dog sitter! Very patient and caring with my questions and with my pup. She even had a questionnaire that made her feel more professional and more safe as a dog sitter. I liked that she let me into her home and walked me through what my puppy's day would start like . She sent me videos and photos. She was careful with my pup and mindful. Would recommend to anyone who is a helicopter mom and or has a high energy dog that you'd like to know she is free to roam about on her day care days!”
“I'm new to the area and was looking for someone to watch Koda. Gina is awesome! The pictures are adorable and Koda passed out hard on the way home. She can't wait for her next visit. 🐶”
About: I always loved dogs since childhood and spend the last few years taking care of dogs of friends and rescued and trained up my own dog. I volunteer at a rescue as occasional foster. I became a certified Dog Trainer beginning of 2023 and believe that every interaction with a dog needs to be intentional. If you are also interested in getting your dog trained, feel free to contact me. I am working most days from home and have a flexible schedule. I have my own car and secure doggy seat belts for needed transportation. I love hiking, walking and running and will give your pup plenty of exercise. As a dog trainer I have plenty of tools: slip leads, easy walk harness, gentle leader, long leash for recall training, variety of different toys and a portable water bowl.
About: I’m dependable, easygoing, and always make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I take time to learn their routine and personality so they feel at ease while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just hanging out, I’m happy to give them the attention they need. Between me and my wife, there's always someone around to give pets attention and care. We work as a team to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and part of the family while they’re with us. Our 3 year old shitzu is very relaxed and has stayed with many different animals in the past, she loves to have playmates. And our kids (8-16) love to help give some quality attention as well. At our place, pets get lots of room to run and play in the fenced yard, plus a comfy spot inside to chill. When I’m at your home, I follow your usual routine to keep things easy and familiar for your pet. Either way, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.
About: Love all breeds of dogs. They are loyal and are your family. Walking them is the best. I take my dog Walter on a minimum of 2-4 walks a day. In the summer if too hot I walk early in the morning and later in the evening. I will also go to the dog park for the grass and to meet other dogs only if the owner has taken them to the park before and they give their permission, I am a huge dog lover and I promise to make your pet happy and joyful so you can enjoy your day with no worries! Plan to Walk or board dogs full time in my home. This is a passion of mine since I became a dog mom to Walter my Beagle. We go on several walks a day and also visit the dog park. He loves to meet other dogs and is very calm and friendly. I have a fenced in back yard with real grass for the dogs to play and do their business. I can crate your dog if needed. Love to go on walks during the day and evening hours.
About: Hello! My name is Jess. I have an empty nest now and a pet-shaped hole in my heart. Looking to care for your furry loved one part-time to get my cuddles. I’ve raised two puppies and cared for dogs ranging from a large mountain cur to a rambunctious maltipoo. I’ve also cared for many cats over the years, especially senior cats with medication and special care needs. Friends regularly rely on me to care for their dogs, cats, and even turtles ha, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and administering medications when needed. I’m a caring, responsible, and easygoing person who will make sure your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I work from home, have no other pets at the moment, and a lovely yard, so your pet will get lots of attention, care, and cuddles throughout the day! You'll receive as many pet photos and updates as you'd like. I’d love the opportunity to meet your fur baby and hope to hear from you soon! I work remote and can be up early at 5 am for early walks. My job has few meetings, so there will be plenty of play time throughout the day. My yard is fully fenced, and I live alone, so your pet will get plenty of attention and care. Whether they’re here for a fun day visit or overnight boarding, they’ll be spoiled with TLC.

About: Over the past decade, I’ve spent much of my time caring for both dogs and cats for friends and family, and now for pets of my own. This care includes feeding, walking, play-time, and general quality time, all of which I love providing daily for my 2 year old golden retriever George 🦮. I’m a teacher looking for a fun and productive way to spend my summer break. I’d love to spend some of that time hanging out with your lovely pets! I’m currently a teacher with completely open availability for the upcoming summer break. Besides daily chores, I will not have much to do and so have completely open availability to care for your pets day and night. I have a large fenced yard with dog door access and a friendly 2-year old golden retriever to keep your dogs company. Crate access is also available if needed, I currently use a massive crate graded for dogs up to 140 lbs. I have one cat as well who prefers to hang out in my bedroom, so he can be easily separated to give your dog space if necessary. Cat litter and food are kept seperate and out of reach from any dogs should they be interested.
“We were so fortunate to have Courtney watch our Maggie this past Thursday and Friday. She was so good with our little girl since this was the first time she stayed with anyone other than my daughter. She was scared at first and Courtney sent the cutest picture of her in her lap as her co-worker. We are very pleased in how well she loved our little girl as much as we do. I would highly recommend her to everyone. Thanks again Courtney. Five plus stars for sure. 😊😋”
“Fantastic! That’s what Shelly is, fantastic. You can tell she knows exactly what she is doing, and that only comes with experience. I’m so appreciative of her willingness to communicate and I know she is being honest. Her set up and process is perfect. She’s accommodating and a wonderful caretaker. As her profile says, your pup really is apart of the family. I’m just so thankful I found her here. Truly thankful!”
“Michelle was fantastic with Max, my 17-year-old dog. Max has separation anxiety, but he seemed calm when I left him and he was taking a nap when I picked him up. He even came back clean and brushed! I will definitely be leaving Max with Michelle any time I am in the area and need a dog-sitter.”

“I’m extremely selective about who I trust with my senior dog, Lila, and Allie and Joey have been amazing. They’re helpful, punctual, and incredibly trustworthy. Lila is on multiple medications for a collapsed trachea and seizures, and they’re always reliable with her meds, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work or out. They’re great about sending photos and videos, and I can always tell how happy and comfortable Lila is. She actually gets so excited when she realizes she’s going to see Allie and Joey, which says everything about how well she’s treated. They were also willing to help with a last-minute booking and truly go the extra mile, even during emergency situations. I couldn’t recommend them more....Lila is always cared for like she’s their own.”

About: My dedication to understanding and meeting each dog’s unique needs. I take the time to learn about your pup’s personality, preferences, and routines, ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you're away. With a perfect balance of exercise and safety, I make sure your dog enjoys their time with me. Growing up surrounded by animals, caring for pets has always been a passion of mine. Rest assured, your furry family members will be treated with the same love and care as if they were my own. 🐾 I’m currently in school and working part-time. My work schedule is flexible, and since most of my classes are online, I’m home for most of the day. The care I provide for pets in my home or my client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Boarding 🏠: I like to ensure that pets receive care, attention, and exercise according to their routines. This includes feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs or behavioral requirements. I also prioritize creating a safe and comfortable space. During Drop-In Visits 🎾 : I provide care based on your pet's needs. This typically includes feeding, fresh water, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I also check for any signs of illness or discomfort, and follow any specific instructions you've provided, such as administering medications or taking pets for short walks. I always ensure that your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away.
About: I graduated with honors from Carrington College in 2014 for Veterinary Assistant program. Since then I have worked with a Non-profit spay/nueter clinic, a company owned world wide Veterinary practice and an NVA hospital. I have had, loved and treated animals for about 16 years. My specialty is not limited to cats and dogs. I also have experience with reptiles and rodents. I am currently employed at Arizona Exotic Animal Hospital, I have been gaining knowledge in exotics care for almost 2 years and do miss the world of cat and dog. I hope to make it my full time gig taking care of pets! I would not recommend bring animals to my home as it is currently full with 3 pets of my own. None are aggressive and all are vaccinated but proper space for more than is important. As for the clients home, I care for the animals as their owners would. Treat their home and space with respect and keep everyone safe and happy.
About: Hello everyone! My name is Bobbie however I go by one of my middle names Kay! I got my first dog when I was 10, he was an 180 lb English Mastiff. I trained him when we got him and we played daily. I loved that dog with all my heart and by the time he was an adult he was the easiest dog to care for. He and I protected eachother and he even saved my and my families life multiple times. I have a soft spot for dogs and though I dont have one at this time I want to be able to care and spend time with them again. I somewhat frequently care for my father's dogs, both on the larger side but I absolutely love them! I currently am fairly free to care for the fur babies! I lost my job due to a medical condition and though I'm alot better now I still have fairly frequent Dr visits I need to work around. I may eventually open myself up to all day care for some pets if I have established a connection with you and your babies! If this is needed, let me know and we can try to work something out. May need to do some visits first to ensure both me and the babies are comfortable before you leave. I can crate your dog if you feel its needed but I would like to ensure we are able to get enough excercise for them while you're gone. My goal is to help de-stress any babies while you are gone. If I need to stay later on visits to help your pooch calm down I am happy to help!
About: With nearly 9 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide loving, attentive, and routine-based care for both dogs and cats! I have cared for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs-including administering medications, post-surgery support, and special diets. I take time to build trust with each pet at their pace, especially those who are shy, anxious, or new to a caregiver/walker. I am calm in emergencies and proactive with communication-whether that meant safely rushing a dog to the vet in an emergency or nursing my rescue cat back to health after temporary blindness. Pet parents trust me for my reliability, detailed updates, and genuine love for animals. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always comes first! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently taking a break from teaching elementary school this year to focus on other passions, which allows me to be fully present and flexible for the pets I care for. I have the time and availability to maintain consistent routines, accommodate midday, walks, extended visits, and last-minute needs, and give each pet the attention they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and this season allows me to prioritize it fully. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any household preferences. I take time to build trust with each pet, move at their comfort level and provide calm, loving attention – especially for pets that may feel anxious when their owners are away. I keep homes clean and secure, provide regular updates with photos and notes, and always prioritize safety. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed in their own environment, and for owners to feel complete peace of mind while they’re away.
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated dog sitter and a proud dog owner myself. I have a 1-year-old corgi, so I truly understand how energetic, playful, and sometimes challenging dogs can be. Caring for her has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving dogs the attention and love they deserve. I treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and affection while you’re away. What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and the patience I bring to every interaction. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for at all times. Right now I’m working full time but I want to make dog sitting and cat sitting my full time job. I have weds Thursday and fridays available through the whole day and if I can fit in time durning my workdays I can absolutely find a time that we can fit in. I have a fenced home and a big backyard your dogs can play in. I can also take care of your dogs if it feels safer in your own home. I also do crate training if you’d like that instead. Just let me know what you prefer.
About: Grew up with chickens, a horse, cats, and dogs so I have quite the pallet of experience. Started pet sitting last summer with putting signs in neighborhoods to take care of all kinds of pets. Took care of senior dogs to guinea pigs and cared for my own chihuahua who was on medication. Im extremely adaptable to any pet and instructions, and would love for your pet to be my next client! Currently working part-time at Raising Canes and taking online college courses so my schedule is pretty open! I love having variety in my day to day so my schedule is pretty inconsistent in the best way possible so I can work with pretty much whatever you throw at me! Unfortunately I’ve experienced dogs with aggressive behaviors, so I have very good sense of body language and keeping dogs comfortable and feelings safe. I love to get to know each pets liked and dislikes to give both of us the best experience possible!
About: I have taken care and spoiled of my two dogs the past 10 years. As well as taken care of my cat nieces and nephew. I am currently a full time OT student in clinicals. I will have afternoon, evenings, weekends to dog walk, house sit and cuddle with fur babies. My dogs are inside outside dogs. I will treat your dog like my fur babies. Love up on them and play with them. Do my best to keep them loved and comfortable while you're away.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I love helping out my neighbors love on their babies while they are out of town by walking them, feeding them, bathing them, cuddling them! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to love on, feed, walk your fur babies in whatever capacity you might need! You can trust me to take care of your fur babies with whatever they may need! I love all animals and love taking care of them.

“A huge thank you to Celeste for accepting our booking at such short notice! Really great communication with pictures of our dog throughout the stay. If we are in the area again, we would definitely rebook!”
“Veronica and family were amazing with our Deja! Multiple updates and pictures everyday. It was very apparent right from the start that they would take extra care of Deja. They worked with Deja on using the doggy door for the first time and loved her little quirks. I would 100% bring Deja back for sitting.”
“Christina was absolutely amazing! She watched my dogs for 3 days and truly went above and beyond anything I could have asked for. She eased all of my anxiety and kept me updated, which meant so much. Most importantly, my dogs had an absolute blast with her! I will definitely be using her for any future boarding needs—I couldn’t recommend her more!”

“I was really in a bind, I was in Michigan, and my sister is in Mesa. She needed an overnight dog sitter and couldn't use Rover. I signed up , found James and Erin. I made the arrangements for my sister. Duffy got dropped off. My sister ended up needing surgery so the arrangements had to be extended and they accommodate us in a heartbeat! They both couldn't have been better! Can't wait to use them again! Debbie”

I would highly recommend Sharon if you need a dog sitter.”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Eric! The communication was incredible—updates everyday, along with adorable photos and videos. Oliver even had his very first modeling photoshoot with Eric. It just showed how much care and attention he was giving to Oliver! He truly went avice and beyond. Eric gave so much attention and patience to Oliver as a puppy. I am truly grateful! This was an incredible pet-sitting experience! Oliver was in the absolute best hands. I highly recommend Eric!!! THANK YOU for taking such great care of my boy!!!”
“Krysten is phenomenal! Excellent communication, knowledgeable of best practices for overall well being of dogs in her care, walked/biked the pups each day, plenty of cuddles, so many pictures and videos. 12/10 experience overall.”
“This is the second time we have used Steven and his family to care for our dog while we were on vacation and not able to bring her! Everything was easy and Edna was well cared for! She even remembered were we were going at drop off and got excited💙 Thank you Steve and family for making it a little easier to leave our pup and not worry!!!”

“Giovanna and Michael were amazing with my dog Ali while I was on vacation. They treated her like family and gave her so much love and attention.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving sitters.”
“This was our first time using River and Jessica helped make us feel very comfortable. We were able to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. We got daily updates and knew Freddie was well taken care of. He came home exhausted which is a good sign of a good weekend! We would definitely use Jessica again.”
“Daisy had the BEST time with Jennifer, and I’m pretty sure Daisy was sad to leave! We were provided daily updates and pictures/videos, and I knew from first meeting Jennifer that Daisy would be in great hands. I think Daisy loved every day but if I had to guess, water day was her favorite day =) I would absolutely use Jennifer again!”
“Shelly is amazing! We've used her twice now for our rambunctious 1 year old Wolfhound mix. She sends frequent updates and has the perfect yard for the dogs to play all day! I was worried our dog wouldn't want to come home because she was having so much fun. Shelly is our new go-to sitter for sure!!”
