“Absolutely love that my pups could have a special Thanksgiving surrounded by love from Ash and her family. Ash gave them each their special pup cups which is so sweet. All my pups are foodies and it was wonderful that this was included without any upcharge that would be typical at a boarding facility. As usual I was sent such cute pictures and videos. The newest picture is now my phone screen saver. Don't hesitate to use Ash! She's truly the best.”
“Willow had a great stay at Zinnia's! He made a lot of friends and the videos of him playing with them every morning gave me the peace of mine to focus on my work trip. He's been resting from all the play time but im sure he can't wait to go back!”
“This was the 2nd time Brooklyn stayed with you & I knew she was happy when she didn’t even looked back when i dropped her off! Thank you for taking such good care of her. It is so nice to know I have a trusted, reliable & convenient place to bring my dog to now! You guys are the best!!”
“Marina was wonderful. I have a slight anxious Annie of a dog and she knew exactly how to treat her and introduce her to the other dogs without feeling overwhelmed. Marina was very communicative which I love and i wasnt worried at all that my dog wasn't having the best time. Thank you, we'll see you next time!”
“Christian and Hanna watched our dog for four days. We were very pleased with their care of our dog Princess. They have a beautiful home with plenty of room for her to run around. Princess received daily walks and plenty of attention. We were also pleased with the daily photos and updates we received. I do not hesitate to recommend Christian and Hanna to take care of your dog.”
“Brandy took such great care of our puppy, Sammy, while we were away. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was obvious Sammy was happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Brandy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Reunited + iT Feels So Good! When I turned the corner onto Susan's street for our 2nd visit, my BLESSing, Mr. B., was EXCITED beyond words + couldn't wait to exit our SUV to run to Susan's building + her. Five months later + he recalled the exact door to enter her building. The purest FEELINGS ever for a parent when dropping off their furbaby! Susan + Justin are the kindest + sweetest JOYFUL caregivers who've fruitfully opened their lives + home to care for others' babies. They've thought of every LOVING detail + LOVE on my furbaby as if he's their very own Tater-Tot. To express I'm GRATEFUL for their passion, as illustrated in every shared conversation, detail, + photo, is an understatement. Whatever questions you may have about caring for your furbaby, don't hesitate to ask Susan; she's happy to share her in-depth knowledge. Another Perk: Chatting iT up about Southern CaLi + The Chi! ;) 1st Visit: Susan trimmed my baby's nails 2nd Visit: Shared Tater-Tot's shoes + lead Every Visit: My baby experiences LOVE as if he's with his favorite Auntie + Uncle. We LOVE U 3, Gifts from Heaven! Turner + Mr. B ;)”
“Jamie was wonderful with Ollie! She listened to all of my requests and instructions, was very attentive to his needs, and kept me updated throughout my time away. I especially appreciated all of the pictures she sent, which gave me peace of mind and made being away a little easier. Ollie seemed very happy and comfortable with her, and I would definitely trust Jamie to watch him again!”
“Our dogs had a great staycation with Cindy. She kept us updated with cute pictures of our happy dogs throughout the trip- I wasn't sure they wanted us to return! We highly recommend her to watch your furbabies.”
“Fanny is a lifesaver! I was in a pinch when my original sitter canceled last minute, but Fanny stepped in and saved the day. She took incredible care of Benji, making sure he felt comfortable and loved. Communication was top-notch - she sent adorable photos and videos, putting my mind at ease while I was away for my best friend's wedding. Benji had an amazing time with her, and I'm so grateful for her flexibility and compassion. She went above and beyond to ensure his stay was stress-free. Highly recommend Fanny! Reliable, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animal care. We'll definitely be booking her again!”
“Haniyeh was wonderful! Excellent communication and very kind. She sent me so many pictures and kept me updated for the day and a half stay that Arya had. She was very patient with her initial timidity and gave her the time she needed to warm up and get comfy. Arya especially bonded with Haniyeh’s dog Chaos and seeing the picture of them snuggled up together made me so happy. Arya kept trying to pull back to Haniyeh when we were leaving - that’s how I knew she enjoyed herself so much! Will absolutely book her again.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Crystal and her family! They were incredibly sweet to my dog, Charlie, and took great care of him during his stay. Not only did they make sure he was comfortable and well-loved, but they also took him on a walk, which he absolutely loved! I could tell from the moment I picked him up that he had a fantastic time. I’m so grateful for their kindness and attention to detail. Charlie was in great hands, and I’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
“Tricia kept our sweet August while having to go out of town for a funeral. It was great to know in the midst of a loss in our family that we had the comfort of knowing our dog was in good hands. Tricia provided multiple pictures daily and kept us up to date with August’s care. He had a great time exploring a new neighborhood and many cuddles. We will certainly reach back out to Tricia in the future. Her attention to his diet and needs are exceptional. Thank you again for treating our furbaby like your own.”
“Brooke was amazing and my dog is very shy at first and she made her feel so comfortable and just at home. The updates are amazing Brooke sends and makes you feel at ease leaving your fur baby ?”
“I absolutely love Julia and her family for taking care of my Chubz .. she was so sweet when my flt was delayed to keep him past the pickup time with no problem 😊 I really appreciate her”
“This was Jelly’s 2nd time staying with Lauren and she got excited as soon as I pulled the car up to Lauren’s house (always a good sign). Lauren is accommodating, friendly, caring, and makes the thought of leaving your furry loved one behind so reassuring.”
“Dina was the right choice to care for my beloved Violet (cat). From the start of our interaction, she was very communicative and enthusiastic about boarding Violet in her home while I was out of town for 5 days. I had never boarded Violet in the past and it's safe to say that Dina made me feel comfortable right away. I received frequent updates and she made time to do live video calls at my request as well which gave me peace of mind in my absence. Most importantly, when I returned from my trip and retrieved Violet, she was safe and healthy. If you are considering boarding your cat with Dina, you have my highest recommendation based on my recent experience.”
“Natalie is my go-to pet sitter for Miso The Adventure Cat every time I travel abroad. Natalie is attentive and adaptable to the needs of different pets, and can even take care of my reptiles. I hope she'll be available every time need her, because no other pet sitter compares!”

“You can see it the moment Renato enters a room – animals adore him. My normally-shy cat bolted out of the bedroom to greet him with a loud meow, which immediately told me everything I needed to know. But what really impressed me was Renato's professionalism: he asked thorough questions ahead of his visit, texted when he arrived, sent a photo of my dog (who looked delighted to be with Renato), and confirmed when he left. It's wonderful to find someone who combines genuine care for animals with such reliable communication! If you're looking for a sitter who your pets will be overjoyed to see, Renato's the guy.”
“Top notch service! I was nervous about hiring a pet sitter for the first time but Syndey was so kind, polite and responsible. Answered all of my questions and was willing to accommodate all of my cat's little quirks. My cat seemed to love her too, they hit it off right away. Very pleased with my choice of hiring her.”
“We really appreciated having someone reliable and kind to watch after our kitty for an extended period of time while we were out of the country. Another great experience with Kaleigh!”
“Alma was amazing with my cats one being super social the other extremely shy. Was great with the check ins and spending time with them when I was out of town. Highly recommend for the downtown residents ☺️”
About: I have been taking care of my own cats as well as family and friends cats for years. From kittens to seniors, and healthy to sick I can tailor my visits around whatever your little kitty needs. I have had one eyed cats as well as tripods and know what it takes to keep everybody happy, healthy, and safe!
“Gigi is simply amazing. She watched over my two cats and my house for several weeks and took really good care of everything. She medicated one of my cats, communicated daily with updates, and I came home to a clean house. I’d give her 10 stars if I could. Thank you for everything Gigi!”
“Madison took care of my cat for a very long time and when I came back, she was much happier than she should have been! My space was kept very clean and orderly, and my cat seems very content. Great sitter!!”
“We are so grateful to have found Aayla! She stayed in our home and cared for our senior cat for an extended length of time, we felt so at ease and relaxed knowing she was there. She was incredibly thorough as our cat needs daily medication and other necessary special attention due to her age that Ayla handled with extremely compassionate care. Beyond her expert pet care she is incredibly courteous and left our home sparkly clean, and even brought in packages and took a delivery for us while we were gone. She does a wonderful job communicating with photos and videos daily and is just an all around delight to work with. We couldn’t recommend Aayla more strongly and will book her for all our future needs!”
“Megan is AMAZING! She was able to come do a meet and greet the day before I needed help, and then she took amazing care of Sylvester! Can’t recommend her enough, she rocks!!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and can’t imagine a home without pets. I grew up with four dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised kittens from birth, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet snuggles, I’ll provide your pets with the love and attention they deserve. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to keep your furry family members happy and cared for! I work from home, so my schedule is extremely flexible!

Whether your pet needs a quick walk, extra playtime, or extended care, I’ll work around your schedule to ensure they get the attention they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and explore. I live in a large apartment, offering room for them to roam and relax. We’re located right across the street from a beautiful park and just a walk away from Margaret T Hance dog park. When caring for pets, I tailor my approach to their unique needs and preferences, whether that’s quiet relaxation, playtime, or lots of walks and trips to the park. I prioritize their comfort and safety, ensuring they feel happy and at home, whether we’re indoors or enjoying the outdoors together.
“Lorin and her family kept my pup safe during the day! She was able to help us out on short notice. My pup came back happy and worn out from all the activity he had. He will be back in the future for more doggie daycare! Thanks Lorin and family!”
“Great experience! Used for doggy day care once. Great communication, felt at ease sending my pup to Monica and he came back super happy! Would highly recommend.”
About: When you're away, you want to know your dog is happy, healthy, and cared for like family. As a Rover client myself, I know how much thought goes into finding a sitter who will truly care for your beloved pet. More than anything, I want your dog to feel genuinely loved, not just looked after. . I understand that each dog is unique, so I'll partner w/ you and build a routine around what your pup actually needs, provide individualized attention, enrichment, and a calm, structured environment. Updates and photos will be provided as often as you want, and communication will be professional and prompt. . Centrally located in downtown Phoenix, under 15 minutes from PHX airport, in a secure building complex. My home is calm, clean, and puppy-proofed, with all dog supplies, toys, grooming products, bedding, and furnishings chosen specifically for safety and hygiene. You and your dog can expect a well-maintained, hypoallergenic-conscious environment, alongside Tater Tot (my 3.5 year old, professionally trained, spunky silky terrier) and my pup adoring partner, Justin. . Meet n' Greets are encouraged, in-person or virtual (video) to make sure it's a good fit for everyone. If your pup does better one-on-one, with gentle structure, individualized attention, and endless pampering, I'd love to meet them! . Background: . Dogs, cats, horses, aquatic pets, animals big and small - if it had fur, fins, scales, or feathers, I’ve cared for them all! I have over 40 years nurturing and loving animals: training award-winning service dogs for people who have physical disabilities, raising Clydesdale draft horses in a rural Midwestern farming community, and volunteering at PAWS, Chicago's largest no-kill shelter. A close family friend's parents worked in veterinary medicine, and I spent years shadowing their practice in the office and in the countryside. Also, I frequently travel to pet sit for friends locally and cross-country, and I'll bring that same level of trust and attentiveness to your pup. . Between my own pets and the animals I grew up around, I have real, hands-on experience with puppies, seniors, rescues, special needs, terminal illness, intestinal ailments, medications, subcutaneous fluid administration, food allergies and specialized diets, training reinforcement/techniques, behavioral issues, and grooming and hygiene best practices. . I do best with puppies (AVSAB guidelines for safety and socialization), senior dogs, pups with special diets or allergies, and dogs needing extra patience or a quieter setup. Puppies get structured routines and positive reinforcement. Seniors get a slower pace and attention to mobility and medication timing. Allergies and special diets are followed exactly. For dogs with behavioral sensitivities, whether that's noise, other animals, or new environments, I adjust the pace and space to keep them comfortable rather than forcing interaction. . My pets: . My silky terriers have always been by my side, first Addi, and now Tater Tot. Addi made the journey with me from Chicago to coastal Southern California to Phoenix, and we spent those years road tripping, hiking, camping, kayaking, and exploring together. She lived a full life to 16, including managing Cushing's syndrome and eventually renal failure with consistent, attentive medical care in her final years. That experience taught me patient, individualized care, something I bring into every dog I look after. Tater Tot, now 3.5 years old, joined our family here in Arizona after Addi crossed the 🌈 bridge. I am 100% available for your pup all day long, so pet care fits naturally into my normal routine rather than being squeezed around it. Feeding, medication, and walks happen on your dog's exact schedule, not mine. Walks are timed around Phoenix heat, always in shaded areas and during the cooler parts of the day; your dog will always be walked or get outside for a potty break regardless of temperature. Between scheduled care, I'm present in the home for calm companionship, not leaving your dog alone for long stretches. For short-term stays and overnight boarding at my residence, here's what to expect. . Household members: . - My partner works remotely. Kind-natured, with years of experience caring for friends' and family's pets. He grew up with golden retrievers, goldendoodles, and other pets. - Tater Tot, our 3.5 year old silky terrier, completed private 1:1 obedience training with a professional, certified trainer. He is fully vaccinated, on tick/flea guard and preventative heartworm medication. Responds to basic commands, plays well with other dogs, and is polite around people and animals. Adaptable in new environments, walks well on a leash, comfortable in the car, and potty-pad/crate-trained. - We don't feed our pets people food due to health/diet restrictions, but let us know if yours enjoys sharing. - Vaccination and preventative med records available if you'd like to see them. . Living conditions: . -Secure 2,000 sq. ft. residence in a gated multi-unit community, single floor, clean and puppy-proofed. Bedrooms can be gated off, and there's room to setup a pen or crate in the living area. - Your dog will always be walked or go outside for potty breaks. Timing is adjusted around Phoenix heat conditions and matched to your dog's leash comfort and energy level. Getting outside requires an elevator or four flights of stairs, which I factor into scheduling. - If your pup is potty pad trained and does not wish to be walked in the extreme heat, we've created a dedicated, secure, and hygienic potty area on our balcony (3 ft railings), since we don't have an adjoining yard. - The neighborhood is dog-friendly and walkable, a mix of homes, apartments, shops, and restaurants. Hance Park is about a mile away, and if your pup is athletic, we can drive to any local Mountain Preserve for some on-leash hiking, weather permitting.
“Truly, the best sitter ever and this is coming from a first time Rover user was very nervous, but felt that this was the right place for dolce tons of updates and they have beautiful dogs truly thankful”
“Definitely would recommend!!! My Daisy is very attached to me and has never been in someone else's care. The 2nd day when she got out of car she ran up to the door and couldn’t wait to dart in not even looking back at me. I got several updates & photos throughout the day. Will be booking with Christian & Hana again!”
“Diesel had a great stay with Adrianna! I appreciated her timely response to my initial inquiry as well as the time she took to schedule a meet and greet. She was able to answer any questions I had. I felt confident leaving Diesel in her care.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I had a 106 lb German Shepherd for 8 years, and during that time I received professional training so I could properly train and care for her, giving me a strong foundation in structure, behavior, and handling larger breeds. Most recently, I lived in a home with four pets (both cats and dogs), where I helped manage daily care, routines, and lots of love and attention. I’ve also fostered animals, which has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to help pets feel safe and comfortable in new environments. What sets me apart is my ability to balance structure with affection—I’m attentive, intuitive to each pet’s needs, and experienced with different personalities, from playful and energetic to calm or senior pets who need a gentler approach. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply providing a calm, loving presence, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I work from home part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine—whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or cuddle sessions. I bring a calm, “pet concierge” approach to every visit, keeping routines smooth, spaces clean, and pets happy. From energetic dogs who love activity to cats who prefer a more relaxed, on-their-terms vibe, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality—making sure they feel safe, loved, and just a little bit spoiled. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel comfortable and at ease. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and your pet’s routine—keeping feeding schedules, walks, litter care, and any specific instructions consistent. I pay close attention to details, from securely locking doors to ensuring pets are always supervised and safe. In my home, pets are welcomed into a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and cozy spots to relax. I’m mindful of introductions, boundaries, and maintaining a stress-free atmosphere for every pet. I take a thoughtful, attentive approach—reading each pet’s behavior, keeping a watchful eye, and providing updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in very good hands.
“Lauren is awesome!! She accepted my last minute request and made me feel so comfortable and safe with leaving my babies in her care. She provided updates throughout the day and took great care of Suki and George!”
“Joanna has been watching our Lola for years and she’s one of the few people that I trust with the care of our girl. She loves her and watches her as her own. She is Lola’s second mom hahaha and I love that! She sends multiple updates throughout the day and even administers her medication as needed which relieves a lot of my anxiety when I can’t be there to give to her. Joanna is a true animal lover and I’m so happy we have her in our life. Haiti is Lola’s bestie and we love anytime she gets to spend with her 🐶🐶”
“Kate is wonderful to work with - she's easy to communicate with and clearly very knowledgeable about dogs. My dog is now a regular with her and the difference has been amazing already. He's so much less stressed than he was when I used to take him to Dogtopia, and I have peace of mind knowing he's in such good hands. I highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for someone who truly understands and cares about pets!”
“Spring break, passing through town my family thought it’d be neat to see a baseball game. On incredibly short notice, Nadia was able to watch my two fur babies. She was very responsive, helpful, caring and insightful. During the time I needed I received multiple photos and videos while of my dogs paying and relaxing. It was really a great experience and I couldn’t recommend Nadia enough! Thank you again Nadia!!”
“Omg, Chelsea is absolutely wonderful! We loved that she stayed in constant communication with us, sending photos and updates about how our Cooper was doing. That gave us so much peace of mind knowing our baby was safe, happy and having a great time with her. Thank you so much, Chelsea, for your warmth, positive attitude and for being such an amazing host. You can truly tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. We would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, loving and attentive to care for their pet.”
“Marina took great care of our puppy Boston for the day and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was communicative, attentive, and clearly very comfortable around dogs. Boston came home happy, tired, and well cared for — always a great sign. You can tell Marina genuinely enjoys spending time with the dogs she watches and gives them plenty of attention and activity. We really appreciated the peace of mind knowing Boston was in good hands. Would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend Marina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Dina is a fantastic sitter! I was in town for business and she made sure I had updates on Mijo throughout the day so I wouldn't worry. She really did treat my doggie like family! Thank you for the great care, Mijo had a great time! ❤️🐾”
“Lola had her first day of Doggy Day Care with Ash. Ash was an amazing Substitute Dog Mama! She was responsive, organized and friendly. She sent a text shortly after Lola arrived and said she was settling in and having a ball playing with the other pups. She also sent a video, photo and report card. Lola came home happy and tired. I'm thrilled with the excellent care Lola received on her first day and look forward to many more visits. Lola says Woof, when can I go back?”
“David has a nice home with a HUGE backyard. It is like a dog park. He really cares about the dogs who stay with him. Our dog was a bit skittish when we first dropped her off, but ended up having a great time.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for my whole life! I have constantly taken care of my family’s and Friend’s pets, and now would love to help my local community of fur parents. I recently moved back to Arizona and don’t currently have any pets of my own, I would love to love on your baby! I work from home from Monday through Friday, and have a job that allows me, flexibility to walk your pet, play and cuddle often :) on the weekends I’ll be fully available as well. I don’t have any pets at the moment, and will only be accepting pets from the same home. So you can know that your pet(s) will be the center of my attention! I will also have a camera facing the main living area at all times in case I ever need to step out (while your pet is boarded with me). I am extremely attentive and careful, and you can be sure your pet will be safe whether they’re being walked or if they’re staying with me!
“Cindy is fantastic. Our dog spent a few workdays while one of us was traveling, and he clearly felt comfortable and happy while at the same time Cindy provided a structured, calm, and enriching environment for him. He got walks and puzzles and even another dog friend to play with on occasion. Cindy was very patient, attentive, and kind. She has an excellent confident demeanor and establishes boundaries effectively and naturally with the pups. I would recommend Cindy in a heartbeat.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I am so glad that I found Megan! She was able to do a meet and greet before the actual walk took place and was very patient with Haiku (we don’t get a lot of visitors to the house, she she was jumping with excitement). Megan provided real time updates and lots of photos. So grateful to find someone who took such good care of Haiku girl!”
“Tara did an amazing job looking after my corgi. She sent me updates and photos of their walks and playtime and was easy to communicate with. My pup had so much fun - I’ll definitely be rebooking with her. Thanks again ! ☺️”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet. I understand that each animal has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m very reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I know how important trust is when someone is caring for a beloved pet. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and needs, including shy animals, high-energy dogs, and senior pets who may need a gentler approach, extra patience, or medication reminders. I focus on creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and owners by providing consistent care, updates, and lots of affection and attention. Pet care fits very well into my routine because I have a flexible part-time schedule that gives me plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m available after 5pm Monday through Thursday, available all day on Fridays, and completely open on weekends for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household rules or routines the pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise while also keeping the home clean, secure, and respected. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means active play, reinforcing basic routines for younger pets, or providing a calm and comforting environment for more anxious pets.
About: I have years of experience dogsitting and housesitting for families with multiple dogs. From energetic Boxers to senior dogs to anxious dogs, I have the experience.

I work from home part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine—whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or cuddle sessions. I bring a calm, “pet concierge” approach to every visit, keeping routines smooth, spaces clean, and pets happy. From energetic dogs who love activity to cats who prefer a more relaxed, on-their-terms vibe, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality—making sure they feel safe, loved, and just a little bit spoiled. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel comfortable and at ease. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of your space and your pet’s routine—keeping feeding schedules, walks, litter care, and any specific instructions consistent. I pay close attention to details, from securely locking doors to ensuring pets are always supervised and safe. In my home, pets are welcomed into a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and cozy spots to relax. I’m mindful of introductions, boundaries, and maintaining a stress-free atmosphere for every pet. I take a thoughtful, attentive approach—reading each pet’s behavior, keeping a watchful eye, and providing updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in very good hands.
“Cristina did such a great job with Bea! She was very communicative and did an amazing job troubleshooting when Bea was being stubborn about going on a walk. Will definitely contact again and highly recommend!”
“We are so lucky we found Alma. She has been our dog walker consistently for the three months we needed help. She makes sure our pup is taken care of and always updates us on how he is doing. I couldn’t recommend her enough.”
About: Life long pet haver and animal lover! I have dogs and cats of my own and have been helping take care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years. I have experience with both cats and dogs from healthy to handi-capable, and from young to old! I have a veterinarian in the family so another expert opinion just a call away if ever needed. Currently I am available all week. I work from home but I am able to be fully flexible with it! I am up early in the mornings for walks before the heat or I can stay over with your critters to keep them company! I take pet care very seriously. My experience with animals over the years has helped me get comfortable with all different temperaments. I am able to adapt to energy levels to make sure every pet and pet owner gets a personalized experience. If your pet needs 24/7 attention (like my yorkipoo) then I will pet them 24/7. If your pet likes their independence or is timid then I will give them the space they need while making sure they still feel safe and comfortable. All pets are unique and it is important to treat them as such.
“Sherry has been great with my pitbull. Pepper can be reactive & has alot of energy for a 10 yo dog & Sherry handles her great (even runs some of her energy out when needed) Sherry is also quick to respond, which is helpful because I tend to book last minute. Thank You Sherry!”
About: I'm excited to meet the center of your world. I've raised and loved dogs and cats of many shapes, sizes, and ages. Whether you're a busy professional or away from home, I'm happy to help. With experience of volunteering at shelters and raising both dogs and cats, I’m excited to take care of yours, too. I am currently only available for evening and weekend visits. I'm flexible with clear communication if you need an extra visit when travel is delayed. I'm very careful when opening and closing doors, as I know some pets can escape very easily. When outside, I keep dogs (and cats) on shorter leashes to maintain control and safety. When feeding and inside the home, I'll follow all care instructions. If I have questions, I'll reach out to receive clarification.
About: I love animals and helping them have the best time they can possibly have without their person at home. I know it can be nerve wracking to be away from your animals so I vow to make their time as enjoyable as it can be. I’ll make sure they feel just as loved and cared for as you would make them feel. I want to bring a fun and safe energy to them so you don’t have to worry. I’m open most of the time. I usually bartend but since it’s the slow season I haven’t had much work. I can fully immerse myself into caring for any animal! I can come over at any time to watch your animals. If they are feeling extra nervous I’d even be okay with staying a bit longer than agreed upon just to make them feel more comfortable. I’ll do whatever I need so they feel safe in my care.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 30 years, starting with my own family dog when I was 10 years old. Since then, I've consistently cared for pets throughout my life, giving me extensive hands-on experience with dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering companionship, I'm committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I'm available to ensure each pet receives the care, consistency, and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow your routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed, and I treat every home and every pet with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: When you're away, you want to know your dog is happy, healthy, and cared for like family. As a Rover client myself, I know how much thought goes into finding a sitter who will truly care for your beloved pet. More than anything, I want your dog to feel genuinely loved, not just looked after. . I understand that each dog is unique, so I'll partner w/ you and build a routine around what your pup actually needs, provide individualized attention, enrichment, and a calm, structured environment. Updates and photos will be provided as often as you want, and communication will be professional and prompt. . Centrally located in downtown Phoenix, under 15 minutes from PHX airport, in a secure building complex. My home is calm, clean, and puppy-proofed, with all dog supplies, toys, grooming products, bedding, and furnishings chosen specifically for safety and hygiene. You and your dog can expect a well-maintained, hypoallergenic-conscious environment, alongside Tater Tot (my 3.5 year old, professionally trained, spunky silky terrier) and my pup adoring partner, Justin. . Meet n' Greets are encouraged, in-person or virtual (video) to make sure it's a good fit for everyone. If your pup does better one-on-one, with gentle structure, individualized attention, and endless pampering, I'd love to meet them! . Background: . Dogs, cats, horses, aquatic pets, animals big and small - if it had fur, fins, scales, or feathers, I’ve cared for them all! I have over 40 years nurturing and loving animals: training award-winning service dogs for people who have physical disabilities, raising Clydesdale draft horses in a rural Midwestern farming community, and volunteering at PAWS, Chicago's largest no-kill shelter. A close family friend's parents worked in veterinary medicine, and I spent years shadowing their practice in the office and in the countryside. Also, I frequently travel to pet sit for friends locally and cross-country, and I'll bring that same level of trust and attentiveness to your pup. . Between my own pets and the animals I grew up around, I have real, hands-on experience with puppies, seniors, rescues, special needs, terminal illness, intestinal ailments, medications, subcutaneous fluid administration, food allergies and specialized diets, training reinforcement/techniques, behavioral issues, and grooming and hygiene best practices. . I do best with puppies (AVSAB guidelines for safety and socialization), senior dogs, pups with special diets or allergies, and dogs needing extra patience or a quieter setup. Puppies get structured routines and positive reinforcement. Seniors get a slower pace and attention to mobility and medication timing. Allergies and special diets are followed exactly. For dogs with behavioral sensitivities, whether that's noise, other animals, or new environments, I adjust the pace and space to keep them comfortable rather than forcing interaction. . My pets: . My silky terriers have always been by my side, first Addi, and now Tater Tot. Addi made the journey with me from Chicago to coastal Southern California to Phoenix, and we spent those years road tripping, hiking, camping, kayaking, and exploring together. She lived a full life to 16, including managing Cushing's syndrome and eventually renal failure with consistent, attentive medical care in her final years. That experience taught me patient, individualized care, something I bring into every dog I look after. Tater Tot, now 3.5 years old, joined our family here in Arizona after Addi crossed the 🌈 bridge. I am 100% available for your pup all day long, so pet care fits naturally into my normal routine rather than being squeezed around it. Feeding, medication, and walks happen on your dog's exact schedule, not mine. Walks are timed around Phoenix heat, always in shaded areas and during the cooler parts of the day; your dog will always be walked or get outside for a potty break regardless of temperature. Between scheduled care, I'm present in the home for calm companionship, not leaving your dog alone for long stretches. For short-term stays and overnight boarding at my residence, here's what to expect. . Household members: . - My partner works remotely. Kind-natured, with years of experience caring for friends' and family's pets. He grew up with golden retrievers, goldendoodles, and other pets. - Tater Tot, our 3.5 year old silky terrier, completed private 1:1 obedience training with a professional, certified trainer. He is fully vaccinated, on tick/flea guard and preventative heartworm medication. Responds to basic commands, plays well with other dogs, and is polite around people and animals. Adaptable in new environments, walks well on a leash, comfortable in the car, and potty-pad/crate-trained. - We don't feed our pets people food due to health/diet restrictions, but let us know if yours enjoys sharing. - Vaccination and preventative med records available if you'd like to see them. . Living conditions: . -Secure 2,000 sq. ft. residence in a gated multi-unit community, single floor, clean and puppy-proofed. Bedrooms can be gated off, and there's room to setup a pen or crate in the living area. - Your dog will always be walked or go outside for potty breaks. Timing is adjusted around Phoenix heat conditions and matched to your dog's leash comfort and energy level. Getting outside requires an elevator or four flights of stairs, which I factor into scheduling. - If your pup is potty pad trained and does not wish to be walked in the extreme heat, we've created a dedicated, secure, and hygienic potty area on our balcony (3 ft railings), since we don't have an adjoining yard. - The neighborhood is dog-friendly and walkable, a mix of homes, apartments, shops, and restaurants. Hance Park is about a mile away, and if your pup is athletic, we can drive to any local Mountain Preserve for some on-leash hiking, weather permitting.
About: Hi, I’m Hilary! I am a healthcare worker and animal lover who will make sure your pet isn’t missing out on any fun or cuddles while you’re away. My goal is to put your mind at ease with a dependable, consistent schedule and frequent updates. A little about me - I’ve lived with pets my whole life and I’m currently a proud mom to two rescue kittens. I feel comfortable working with cats and small to medium/large dogs of all ages, with a variety of medical conditions. My experience ranges from caring for kittens and puppies to senior cats and dogs, including pets with special diets and disabilities. I am open to any breed of dog and have especially extensive experience with chihuahuas and golden retrievers. I am available for walks, hikes, play time, overnight stays at your house, or quick check-ins. I’d love to get to know you and your pet, so feel free to message me with any questions! Because I work full time, my availability for walks and drop-ins is limited to evenings and weekends. I also accept house sitting requests for the weekends or for pets who are accustomed to being home alone during the day on weekdays. My house sitting rates include walks and cover up to 16 hours of care. Constant care of up to 24 hours is charged at an additional 50% of the nightly rate. I will review your safety concerns and protocols prior to any assignment, including any doors, stairs, and gates in your house, any use of crate, and any harness or leash used for outdoor activities.
About: I have cared for my own dogs for many years and also have professional dog-walking experience. Last year, I completed a three-month house- and cat-sitting assignment in Carmel, caring for four cats in one home. I am attentive to each animal’s routines, temperament and changing needs. My calm, patient approach is especially helpful for senior, sensitive or initially cautious pets. I provide dependable care, thoughtful communication and photo updates. Pet care is already part of my daily routine as a devoted dog parent. I plan my days around regular walks, feeding, attentive companionship, and time outdoors. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. In each client’s home, I carefully follow their established routines and instructions. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, secure doors and leashes, fresh water, attentive supervision, and calm, respectful care. I also provide dependable updates so pet parents know their pets are safe and comfortable.

“Haniyeh was wonderful! Excellent communication and very kind. She sent me so many pictures and kept me updated for the day and a half stay that Arya had. She was very patient with her initial timidity and gave her the time she needed to warm up and get comfy. Arya especially bonded with Haniyeh’s dog Chaos and seeing the picture of them snuggled up together made me so happy. Arya kept trying to pull back to Haniyeh when we were leaving - that’s how I knew she enjoyed herself so much! Will absolutely book her again.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Crystal and her family! They were incredibly sweet to my dog, Charlie, and took great care of him during his stay. Not only did they make sure he was comfortable and well-loved, but they also took him on a walk, which he absolutely loved! I could tell from the moment I picked him up that he had a fantastic time. I’m so grateful for their kindness and attention to detail. Charlie was in great hands, and I’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“Kim and Deanna are truly amazing. They took such good care of our fur babies when we went on vacation for a week. They would send daily photo or video updates at the perfect time, as I missed our dogs and was so glad to see how happy they were. I would 100% be rebooking in the future. Oh and the icing on the cake was they made a photo collage of the pups and printed them out for us as a keepsake. You ladies are amazing. Thank you!”
“Adrianna did a great job with Eclipse. Communication was wonderful. She sent me cute videos and photos for my pups entire stay. Gave me something to look forward to while I was away. Will use her services again ❤️”
“Lorin and her family took excellent care of our puppy while we were out of town. We were nervous to leave our puppy for the first time but she provided daily updates with pictures and videos and he had a great time! Would definitely use her again.”
“Amber and Louie were great hosts! She sent updates along with pictures and videos! It’s safe to say that Benji has found his second home!! Thank you over and over again Amber you’re greatly appreciated!”
“Stacy took wonderful care of my dog, Callie! She frequently sent me pictures of her along with updates to let me know that she was doing well. I could tell that Callie quickly integrated into Stacy’s family, thanks to the loving and welcoming environment. It even appeared that although Callie was happy to see me and be back by my side when I picked her up, that she was simultaneously disappointed to have left Stacy and her family. I honestly could not have asked for a better sitter for my dog. She will definitely be my go to next time I am looking for someone to watch Callie girl.”
