“Leanna and Berlin were great! Wrigley is 14yo, blind and partially deaf, which gives him a lot of anxiety. We picked him up and he was so calm! He has eating issues and they went above and beyond to find food that he would eat, even making him special mixes. They were very communicative. Highly recommend!”
“Gidget loved the warm welcome when we left her off for the first time. I received pictures and was able to contact Kathleen at any time which reassured that all was going good. Gidget came home and slept for 2 days after her stay that showed me she loved playing with other dogs Kathleen and Steven where very loving to our dog And I highly recommend their services 🥰”
“Oakley had an amazing time. Kelly kept me updated with pictures three times a day and they were the cutest pictures ever. I’m very happy with her services and Oakley had a great time with her family and her pups. 🐾”
“Stephanie treated Ella like her own. Stephanie sent updates and pictures throughout Ella's stay. Stephanie's residence has easy access if dropping your little one off while traveling with an RV like we did. We would absolutely use Stephanie again if in the area and would highly recommend her.”
“Myron and Pat are the best. Baxter really enjoyed his stay with them. They treated him so well with love and kindness. We are grateful to have them as a source for our boy. Thanks to you all.”
“From the moment we dropped off Scorch, Chuck was friendly and welcoming. Communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We felt confident leaving Scorch in such a clean and secure environment. Scorch came home happy and well taken care of, which really says it all. We'll definitely be using Chuck's services again!”
“This was our second time using her for dog boarding, and once again she was absolutely wonderful. She is kind, friendly, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for during the stay. I appreciated the updates and the extra attention she gave to my senior dog. It gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again.”
“Celynda and her partner did a fabulous job taking care of Daisy. Daisy was walked, taken to dog park. She even went above and beyond by giving Daisy a bath. My absence was extended and Celynda bought extra dog food and vitamins for Daisy! No dog sitter I know has ever done that Kudos to you. Daisy played with the cat toys and Celynda bought a larger toy just like the cat toy, stuffed Lam Chop which Daisy loved. She got to bring it home I highly recommend Cylenda for dog boarding and sitting. Your dog will be better off than when you dropped it off.”
“First time I ever used Rover and first time I ever left my dog with a stranger. Rae was extremely kind and loving to my dog. She sent me text messages and pictures that I very much appreciated. My doggie was very well taken care of from Rae. She kept her safe and followed the instructions I reviewed with her. I would recommend Rae and will use her again.”
“Benjamin was AMAZING!!! He really went above and beyond!! This was the first time we were away from our fur baby in years, and we were really concerned. But Benjamin did a great job letting her relax, and warmed up to him. We can’t thank him enough!!!”
“Harley had another amazing stay with Sierra and Jason! They take such great care of her, and made sure she was comfortable through 4th of July fireworks! She always comes home happy”
“We highly recommend Nick and Veronica! They have generously watched our dog, Sadie, multiple times and take the absolute best care of her. She always looks so happy and like she's being treated like a queen in the update pics/videos. She loves playing with their sweet dog, Nova, and enjoys exploring and running in their spacious yard. Top notch customer service and communication. Extremely responsible. We trust them to give her oral medications and keep her safe. We are so grateful to have found loving and quality boarders. Thank you!!!”
“Kylea took absolutely wonderful care of my pup, Paco, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. From start to finish, it was clear how much she genuinely loves the animals she looks after. Paco was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her hands the entire time. I would absolutely be using her in the future and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Michele was absolutely the best and took such great care of our two small pups while we were away on our wedding trip! She sent thoughtful updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind, and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. It was clear they were in great hands from start to finish. We’re so grateful for her and would absolutely trust her again in the future!”
“Mitch did a good job keeping us in the loop with pictures and videos of Berkeley during our time away. He is very conscious of the weather and keeping our pet safe under his care. Thank you Mitch!”
“Linda was absolutely wonderful and truly saved us over the Fourth of July weekend when we needed a last-minute sitter. She took amazing care of Mela and treated her like she was part of her own family. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mela was in such caring and dependable hands. Linda is reliable, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a sitter. Thank you so much, Linda!”
“Our dogs, were well cared for we got pictures and and updates. Our babies were happy to go and happy to see us when we got back. We took them to a bathing station when we were done. Our puppy Blu, is still learning to lift his leg to pee and he had poo on his back side. All was good!”
“Dina was amazing with my three super energetic boys. They can be a handful and she had it handled. I am a new Rover user and was very hesitant, but Dina is exceeded my expectations and am happy that I found someone I can trust.”
“Sonia was amazing with my little chihuahua! She kept me updated many times throughout the day with photos and videos and my dog looked so happy. You can tell Sonia really loves dogs and will care for them like they are her own. I highly recommend Sonia!”

“Annabella was amazing! She went above and beyond to care for our cat Loki while we were on vacation. The night we left, our fire alarms became defective and kept setting off until our maintenance team could come fix them the next day. Annabella stayed extra long during her visit to reassure Loki and comfort him. Our litter robot also had a connection issue, and she was able to reset it & set up an emergency litter box I had shipped to the home. The fire alarm situation caused me a lot of anxiety at the beginning of the trip, but the daily updates and photos from Annabella made me feel so much better and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the rest of our trip, knowing our boy was in good hands! We would definitely rebook with her on future trips. :)”

“Kylea welcomed our cat, Noodles, into her home on very short notice, and we couldn't be more grateful. Noodles wasn't just being watched—she was truly cared for by Kylea and her wonderful daughters. It was clear they treated her like part of the family. We loved receiving updates and knowing she was safe, comfortable, happy, and getting plenty of attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Noodles was surrounded by such a caring family throughout her stay. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Kylea is definitely the perfect choice.

About: Our family has had pets in our home for the last 20 years. We currently have one cat and two dogs, who loves having other dogs come to visit. We'll accept dogs for short stays, daycare, and boarding. We have a big backyard that allows for a lot of ball-throwing and running. Your dog will get lots of love and attention during their stay and will not be left alone. Because we work from home, your pet will get potty breaks and outdoor time whenever they want it. We love puppies and are happy to help with potty training. If you have been working with your dog on learning commands, we will continue that training while they stay with us. We'll update you throughout your pet's stay with pictures of what they've been doing. We look forward to making your pet a part of our family. Drop in visits will include feeding, play time, ball throwing, belly rubs, or whatever it is your pup enjoys. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to do drop-ins throughout the day between 7:00 am and 8:00 pm. I will follow all instructions that are given to me and will keep your pets on any restrictions or routine that they are accustom to.
About: I have always had at least one dog since I no was young. Currently, I have a wiener dog and a rat terrier that my son calls his brother and sister. I am available weekends to hang out with dogs. I have a huge gated yard and a doggy door for guests to enjoy. My husband and I can be home as needed to watch guests during the weekends! I’m open to dogs during the week, but we do work outside of the home. I’m happy to provide water and pee pads or doggy door access if you’re ok with the radio as company! Let me know! Pets in my home are treated like my very own! I have tile floors in the living room and kitchen, as well as dog beds (and of course the couch!) to make them comfortable.

“Sonia is absolutely amazing — truly the best sitter I’ve ever had. She gave constant, thoughtful updates and showed so much love, care, and attention to my pup. She even accommodated me last minute, which meant the world. She exercises my dog and treats her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Thank you so much, Sonia”

Then I will introduce the cat(s) slowly to the other cats and the to home.
“Kelly was fantastic with our playful boy Moose! She and her family are so sweet, plus their older pups, for keeping up with our guy. She sent many updates throughout the day and our pup came home happy and tired. Would 100% recommend and plan to have him visit again in the future.”

“Francesca is by far one of the best dog sitters I’ve had ever worked with. Her compassion for animals does not go unnoticed and she is always willing to accommodate if she’s able too. Her fur babies are sweet and my Simba loved making new friends. Highly reliable and I don’t plan on doing business anywhere else anytime soon. Thanks a ton!”
About: *IMPORTANT SUMMER INFO* I do not walk dogs when temps are over 95 during the day. I will walk up to 100 degrees when the sun is not out (early morning or after sunset). Walks will change to drop-ins (no change in price) if temps exceed this. We are a dog loving family and welcome small to medium size dogs for doggy daycare. Pam is available for dog walking and drop-ins on weekdays. For daycare, we have 3 resident dogs who will welcome your pooch to the pack, so yours should be good with other dogs. Our backyard is fully fenced, with a pool that your pup can cool off in. **The dogs are fully supervised any time they have access to the pool.** Pam works solely from home and Joe works in ministry just two miles away. Our schedules allow us to show your fur baby a great time and all the love and attention it will need while you are away for the day. Please let us know if you have any questions about your pup's needs. We look forward to welcoming them to our pack! ~Pam & Joe Why I love dog sitting I grew up with cats but fell in love with dogs when I got my first one, Maggie, in my twenties. Maggie was a Sheltie and was my companion through a lot of life's ups and downs. In 2010, I adopted Snickers & Itty Bitty, a malkie and care-tzu. Maggie, Snickers and Itty Bitty all lived to 15 years old, but we would have loved many more years with them. We now have Toby, a small mixed breed who is 10, Lucky, a Maltipoo, who was rehomed to us, and Ginger, a cavapoo princess who we were blessed to find through a rescue. About my yard Our backyard is fully fenced and landscaped. We have a pool and your dog is welcome to swim, or cool off on the baja step, if they like. We have a grass side yard that is a designated potty area for the pups. Pam works part-time from home and Joe works just 2 miles away. While Pam is home working, our 3 resident fur babies are never far away, sometimes even sleeping on her lap or desk. We have a gate that keeps dogs from accessing the front door. Our front door and back doors both have security screens, so if we open the door they can't run out. Our back yard is fully fenced and double fenced on the one side that opens to the front yard/street.
“Sierra and Jason were wonderful caretakers! Our dogs didn’t want to leave when it was time to pick them up! They followed every instruction, sent lots of photos of our pups being loved on! Highly recommend. Rates are better than most, as well! Top notch.”
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I can remember. Not really dogs but family to me. From walking to bathing to brushing they are my kids.

However, I would prefer not to take dogs in the last months of their life. I have a fenced yard and 2 dogs - my husband and I walk the dogs we play with them and they sleep with us.

About: I have been taking care of pets of all kinds my entire life. I have always had dogs and cats in our home. Currently we have a Golden Retriever, Piper, and A long Haired Siamese, Kylo, in our home. Over the last 30 years we have had 5 Golden retrievers, sometimes multiple at once, and 4 cats. Dogs and Cats give me great pleasure and are ultra important in my life. If you are a dog and cat lover then you are my kind of people. I have just recently retired and this is the perfect gig for me. They get Walked, I get walked, They Play, I play, They get loved, I get loved.

I think it's important for pets to be in a place that they are familiar with in your home or my home. It's far better than taking them anywhere else. If friends are supposed to come over and take care of your babies, they may run over just before you get home and will not give you the care you hoped for. We know, as this has happened to us.

About: I'm passionate about providing top-notch care for your furry friends! With 10 years of dog-sitting experience and a lifetime of growing up with dogs, I bring a deep love for canines and a wealth of knowledge to ensure your pets are happy and well-cared for. I specialize in staying active with dogs, whether it's long walks, playtime, or engaging activities tailored to their energy levels. I have extensive experience with both senior dogs and puppies, understanding their unique needs and providing the extra care they require. As the proud owner of two well-trained, large-breed dogs who get along great with others, I know how to foster a positive and safe environment. I'm also skilled at administering medication and accommodating any special needs your dog may have. Let me give your pup the love, attention, and care they deserve! As a passionate pet caregiver, I seamlessly integrate dog and cat care into my daily and weekly routine to ensure your furry friends receive the exercise, attention, and love they need. My schedule is structured to prioritize their well-being while maintaining flexibility to meet their unique needs. **Daily Routine:** Each morning, I start with a brisk walk or play session for dogs, depending on their energy levels, to get their exercise in early. For cats, I engage them with interactive toys. Throughout the day, I provide multiple check-ins, including feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks for dogs or litter box maintenance for cats. I make time for extra cuddles, grooming, or training sessions to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. If medication is required, I administer it precisely as instructed. Evenings include another walk or playtime, ensuring dogs get ample exercise (at least 1-2 hours total daily) and cats receive focused attention to keep them content. Before bedtime, I ensure they’re settled with a calm environment, often spending quality time to reinforce our bond. **Weekly Routine:** On a weekly basis, I plan longer adventures for dogs, such as hikes or visits to dog-friendly parks (with owner approval), to mix up their exercise routine and provide new stimuli. For cats, I rotate toys and introduce enrichment activities. I schedule deep cleaning of pet areas, such as bedding or litter boxes, to maintain a hygienic space. My two well-trained, large-breed dogs, who are great with other pets, join in group activities when appropriate, fostering socialization for dogs or providing a calm presence for cats. I also set aside time to communicate with pet owners, sending updates or photos to keep them connected. My 10 years of experience and lifelong background with pets allow me to adapt my routine to accommodate senior pets or puppies/kittens, ensuring they get the extra care they need. By weaving pet care into my daily and weekly rhythm, I guarantee your dog or cat receives abundant exercise, personalized attention, and a nurturing environment, all while keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. Safety and trust are two very important things, especially when talking about pets. I’ve grown up with so many different kinds of animals, and each one of them have had different personalities! So if your dog is energetic, shy, skittish, or even lazy… I will take all necessary precautions to make sure your pet feels safe and anxious free! Especially if im in their home, dogs and cats can get very territorial and im fully prepared for any situation!
About: I’ve taken care of my dog for 16 years prior to putting him down in January 2025. While we’re not prepared to get our own, my heart is open to assist you with your fur baby! They will be in good hands with me! I am fine walking, feeding and checking in during the day. Some evenings if you need me! I prefer to stay in the Surprise, El Mirage, Peoria, Arrowhead, Glendale, Buckeye and Goodyear areas. I will adjust my schedule to meet your needs. I am available Monday - Thursday 8am - 7pm. If weekends are needed we can negotiate. I will adhere to the rules of your home and your pet. We will have an introductory meeting, I will ask for detailed written instructions and I will follow them to the letter and provide photos of your pet while in my care.
About: I have raised and cared for animals nearly my whole life. I have a background and education in animal husbandry and nature conservation. I also have many years of vet tech experience with exotic and domestic animals, as well as training skills to include: aggression/behavior correction; off-leash and obedience training; house-breaking and crate training; socialization and interspecies cohabitation. Rest assured your pet will be in a loving, clean, secure and structured environment with plenty of room to play and relax. I work from home and I keep my own hours, so I have the ability to be flexible and accommodating. All I ask is that we work together to find an appropriate schedule that works for both of us. Our home is adjacent to a wonderful park with walking paths, small ponds and a spacious dog park. I have quite a large fenced-in yard with several established shade trees, so pets have plenty of safe space to roam freely. I have a pet door that can accommodate up to a Medium sized dog (approx 26" tall at the shoulder). I work from home so larger pets still have regular access outside for potty breaks and play. I have a spayed female Maine coon cat in the home that is very social and is socialized with dog and cats.
About: I currently have a lab mix fur baby named Boris. I've also raised a German shepherd and a Keeshond. I give Boris lots of love, walks, and trips to the dog park, and I would love to care for your fur baby the same way. I'm open to caring for your loved one with or without mine on walks or at the dog park. I also love cats and would be happy to spend time playing, cuddling, or just making sure they are well fed. I love all animals and feel I connect with them. I'm responsible, reliable, and honest. I'm looking to change my career - yes, this late in life - to do something I've always wanted to do: share my love with as many fur babies as possible. You can count on me to provide friendly, fun, and responsible care for your fur baby! I am retired. My schedule is pretty open and flexible. I walk my dog. I also do social activities in my community 2 times a week. I can walk, sit and visit, feed and water your fur babies. I'm open to extra duties inside your home. I love to pet, cuddle and play.
About: I have had animals of all kinds since i can remember. I have taken care of dogs mostly but have experience with cats, bunnies, ferrets and even chickens and horses. I am a stay at home mom to a 2.5 year old little boy. Just trying to make some extra money for my family doing something I love and helping out pet parents in need! I will be sure to follow all rules, I am very diligent about what a dog needs as I have a couple senior dogs at home that take special care (vitamins etc).

“Oakley had an amazing time. Kelly kept me updated with pictures three times a day and they were the cutest pictures ever. I’m very happy with her services and Oakley had a great time with her family and her pups. 🐾”
“Stephanie treated Ella like her own. Stephanie sent updates and pictures throughout Ella's stay. Stephanie's residence has easy access if dropping your little one off while traveling with an RV like we did. We would absolutely use Stephanie again if in the area and would highly recommend her.”
“From the moment we dropped off Scorch, Chuck was friendly and welcoming. Communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We felt confident leaving Scorch in such a clean and secure environment. Scorch came home happy and well taken care of, which really says it all. We'll definitely be using Chuck's services again!”
“This was our second time using her for dog boarding, and once again she was absolutely wonderful. She is kind, friendly, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for during the stay. I appreciated the updates and the extra attention she gave to my senior dog. It gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again.”
“Celynda and her partner did a fabulous job taking care of Daisy. Daisy was walked, taken to dog park. She even went above and beyond by giving Daisy a bath. My absence was extended and Celynda bought extra dog food and vitamins for Daisy! No dog sitter I know has ever done that Kudos to you. Daisy played with the cat toys and Celynda bought a larger toy just like the cat toy, stuffed Lam Chop which Daisy loved. She got to bring it home I highly recommend Cylenda for dog boarding and sitting. Your dog will be better off than when you dropped it off.”
“Harley had another amazing stay with Sierra and Jason! They take such great care of her, and made sure she was comfortable through 4th of July fireworks! She always comes home happy”
“We highly recommend Nick and Veronica! They have generously watched our dog, Sadie, multiple times and take the absolute best care of her. She always looks so happy and like she's being treated like a queen in the update pics/videos. She loves playing with their sweet dog, Nova, and enjoys exploring and running in their spacious yard. Top notch customer service and communication. Extremely responsible. We trust them to give her oral medications and keep her safe. We are so grateful to have found loving and quality boarders. Thank you!!!”
“Kylea took absolutely wonderful care of my pup, Paco, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. From start to finish, it was clear how much she genuinely loves the animals she looks after. Paco was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her hands the entire time. I would absolutely be using her in the future and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Mitch did a good job keeping us in the loop with pictures and videos of Berkeley during our time away. He is very conscious of the weather and keeping our pet safe under his care. Thank you Mitch!”
“Linda was absolutely wonderful and truly saved us over the Fourth of July weekend when we needed a last-minute sitter. She took amazing care of Mela and treated her like she was part of her own family. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mela was in such caring and dependable hands. Linda is reliable, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a sitter. Thank you so much, Linda!”
“Our dogs, were well cared for we got pictures and and updates. Our babies were happy to go and happy to see us when we got back. We took them to a bathing station when we were done. Our puppy Blu, is still learning to lift his leg to pee and he had poo on his back side. All was good!”
“We picked up our guy today after being gone for 8 days. First time leaving him anywhere so we were nervous. Chris and Julia were amazing. They were so nice and made us feel comfortable. They sent us daily updates and we could see he was enjoying himself and getting along with their dog. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. They’ll definitely be our go to sitters in the future.”
“Christina is a gem! Ginger loves her and always comes back from her place refreshed, relaxed, and happy. It is a good feeling to know she is in good hands while we are away.”
“Deanna was quick to respond to my request and set-up a meet-and-greet within the same day. Deanna and her family went above and beyond taking care of my pup & welcomed her into their family for the holidays. She was great with communication and sent consistent photo updates. She was also beyond accommodating with some scheduling changes. We would absolutely book again with Deanna in the future! 😊”
“Amber was fantastic with our very high anxiety senior dog. We left for a week and this was our first time taking Roxie for care outside our home. Amber sent updates and pictures and really put me at ease. It was relieving to know she was happy and clam. We will for sure use Amber again.”
“Sherrie was amazing. Cynder and I go everywhere together, so when I had to travel out of state for work you can imagine how I was going to handle someone else watching over her. She sent me photos every day. The first photo I got put my mind at ease. I will definitely put my little angle on this wonderful person's hands again. Thank you Sherrie.”
“We were nervous about leaving our French Bulldog but after talking to and meeting Lindsey we felt better about the new way of boarding and decided to book Chloe’s stay at Lindsey’s home. Lindsey was fantastic. She sent pictures and videos of our girl. If she had a question about the care plan and profile information she contacted us for clarification. Chloe was relaxed, playing, and eating just as if she was at home with us. I would not hesitate to recommend Lindsey to take care of your pets. Next time we go out of town or need a sitter we are going to reach out to her.”
“Megan was absolutely fantastic. Our dog Skipper is 12 years old now and he needed a place where he could feel at home. I don't think we could have found a better sitter than Megan. She communicated clearly and often and sent frequent pictures of Skipper. He was clearly happy and relaxed while we were away. Thank you so much, Megan!”
