“As always Pamela took great care of my little man over the holidays. In the past I’ve been anxious about leaving my little guy with a pet sitter, but not now. When I get to her house he jumps out of the and runs right to her door. So comforting knowing that he’s in good hands when I travel!”

Julia kept us updated to how Benny was doing and we appreciate her being patient with Benny’s playfulness.”
“Christina was absolutely amazing! She watched my dogs for 3 days and truly went above and beyond anything I could have asked for.

We’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”
“This was Piper’s second stay and she must feel at home with Ezra and Reina, because she ran right in the back yard and didn’t even say goodbye to me! Their pick up and drop off system is super smooth and quick. Can’t recommend enough, but please leave space for Piper!”
“Ash was so great with Emmy!! She kept us updated with photos and text about how and what her and Emmy were doing. Took her to parks to play! We couldn’t have asked for a better host for our doggy! Thanks again for everything Ash! You made our trip a lot better knowing our dog was in great hands!!”

“Bridget was fantastic with Puck over almost two weeks. He is not an easy cat — he actually got her badly enough that she had to go treat it — and she came right back the next day with a plan and kept going without ever making it my problem. She caught that his water fountain wasn't working, put out backup bowls, fixed the camera, and sent updates and videos the whole time. Genuinely above and beyond. Would book again without hesitating.”
About: I love animals. I worked at as a Veterinary Tech for 8 years. Where I walked, feed, medicated, and grooms dogs and cats. I am very passionate about dogs getting potty breaks and exercise. I love walking dogs. Animals tend to gravitate towards me when I enter a house. I also love cats and the therapy that they bring. Cats are amazing in the skills that they have so I love being around them. I am great with all breeds from large to tiny. Smaller dogs need lots of extra loving such as sitting in laps and larger dogs tend usually to like fetch and outside activities I am also very comfortable about dispensing medication if needed and if instructions are left for me to follow.
“Veronika was a great sport about a somewhat irregular cat sitting gig of looking after a semi-stray cat I have been feeding for several months. She sounded honestly happy and pleased the one time she saw the cat in the yard. Very reliable and easy to work with.”
“Teresa is amazing! She took such a good care of our cats that they didn't even care that we were back home lol Can't recommend her enough, just be careful that your pets might miss her more than they miss you lol”
“Ana was very pleasant and took great care of my kitties while we were gone! She was very responsive and updated us daily on them, making sure they had everything they needed. Would definitely book again!”
“Ava was great in stopping in to check on our dogs while we were away for extended hours. I appreciate her providing some pictures and comments on Cooper and Bailey. I would highly recommend”
“Thank you to Bella, who took very good care of my cats while I was out of town! She was even kind enough to unpack a Chewy delivery bc I was running low on cat food. I will definitely be using her again as a sitter.”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Rick - and for managing the details (food dispenser/water fountain level/litter box) - greatly appreciated - will book with you again soon”
About: I've spent years taking care of family and friends' animals - primarily cats and dogs. I have my own high-energy herding pup and am familiar with the ins and outs of an animal. I've had experience with sensitivity and reactivity as well. I'm excited to love on and spend time with your pets! I am currently working part-time so I have flexiblity and time to hang with your pets. Let me know what their schedule looks like, and we can see if it is a good fit! I am very aware of my surroundings and cognizant of animal body language (from working with my own pup). I try to meet the energy of the animal - cat want alone time, or only to play a little bit? Fine by me! High-energy dog needs multiple walks during the day? Also works for me.
“Such an awesome sitter! Tabbitha sent me updates with pictures through out the days i was away and I was able to feel at peace knowing my kitten was being very well taken care of and even having a great time!!”
“Alaina has looked after Barkley multiple times, and she does an amazing job of making it a stress free experience. Barkley looks like he's having so much fun in all the pictures she sends and she does a great job communicating.”
About: I’m a friendly, calm pet walker who genuinely does this for the animals. As a vegan, I’m big on kindness and gentle, respectful care—so your dog or cat gets the comfort, patience, and attention they need. I offer dog walks and cat-friendly drop-ins, with reliable check-ins and a calm approach that helps pets feel safe. I also love plants, and if you’d like help while you’re away, I can take care of your greenery with simple watering and light checks.
“Ashley was great! She was prompt, responsible, communicative, and detailed. I felt very comfortable on my recent trip knowing that she was stopping by and spending some time with my buddy Slick. I highly recommend Ashley for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“Mink was in wonderful hands with Adam and Fang! They were very patient, welcoming hosts and it looked like all 3 of them had a wonderful time together. Adam sent us multiple videos every day which we really appreciated. Leaving Mink during trips is never easy, but we felt confident he was well cared for at Adam's house. Thank you Adam and Fang!”
About: It first started with my mom's coworker's five cats, followed by caring for a cat and dog for three weeks. My requests gradually began to include both dogs and cats. In June 2024, I adopted my own kitten. His name is Zeus. He is my first cat, and I have learned a lot since adopting him. I frequently hear how cats receive a bad representation about being low maintenance, or cold and distant, but I could disagree. Both cats and dogs both need equal amount of love, attention, and playtime, they are just in different forms of love.

“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.”
“Sara was so sweet and calm personality, my dog looked so happy when I pick him up. She was very responsive and sent pictures of Byron and a video, I recommend Sara for any future services. We definitely will.”
“I have a blue heeler who is incredibly high energy, and Nadia is amazing with her!!! Luna is absolutely thrilled every time we pull up. As a first time dog mom, I was super nervous about leaving Luna with a babysitter, but there is no one I would rather have than Nadia! Seriously the best, so glad Luna gets to spend time with her.”

I am comfortable with just about anything for pets!
“Olivia is fantastic. She is kind, gentle and nurturing! Our girl had a blast and knocked out on the car ride home. She is a happy pup today thanks to Olivia and our new doggo friends! Would 100% recommend and use Olivia again! Thank you for loving her as your own!”
“Tasha was very caring and conscientious - she took excellent care of Lucy, provided us with regular updates, and was very pleasant and reliable to communicate with. We especially appreciated how calm she and her household is, and that she got to know our dog as an individual special being, not just ‘a dog’. I would highly recommend Tasha to anyone looking for a safe, loving caretaker for their furry family member.”
“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.”
About: Your dog will be treated like family while staying in our home. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. One thing that sets my care apart is that I only accept one family's booking at a time. While I may care for multiple dogs from the same household, I do not mix dogs from different families. This allows me to provide more individualized attention, maintain a calm environment, and ensure your dog feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, including senior dogs and dogs requiring oral or injectable medications. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm place to relax, I tailor their stay to what makes them most comfortable. While we live in an apartment, your dog will receive multiple daily walks, exercise, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and make sure dogs in my care get the physical activity and enrichment they need. My son and I love spending time with dogs, and Rover has become a wonderful way for us to share that love while helping pet parents feel confident their pets are being cared for. Since we do not currently have pets of our own, visiting dogs receive lots of individualized attention during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be stressful, so I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout their visit. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. Before booking, I always encourage a meet-and-greet so we can make sure we're a great fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and are not left alone for extended periods. Dogs receive multiple daily walks and exercise tailored to their age, energy level, and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pet while you're away. Because I only accept one family's pets at a time, I am able to focus on providing individualized care and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment for each guest. I only accept one family’s pets at a time, creating a calm, safe environment where each pet receives personalized attention, comfort, and loving care.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send photo updates during walks.

I am free Friday nights to Wednesday mornings for longer periods of boarding. For walks, I can fit them in any day of the week and whatever works best with your schedule! I often go on walks by myself in my neighborhood. I usually hike “A” Mountain and walk around the whole ASU campus. I love any kind of walk whether they are longer or shorter depending on activity levels of your pets! I live near campus at ASU, close to Mill Ave, campus, Tempe Town Lake, and “A” Mountain!

“Madison and Austin took great care of our dog Blake when we needed to both be at work for the day. Blake can be anxious around new people, and they were attentive to that and made sure we brought some of Blake's things (pad/blanket, toys, treats) so that they could make him comfortable. Blake had a great day with them and settled in and Madison provided updates throughout the day to let us know how it was going. And of course the next time Blake saw Madison and Austin he was jumping up and shaking his body all over to greet his new friends. We appreciated how patient they were with Blake (and us) and highly recommend them to take care of your dog.”

I’m a huge animal lover and volunteer at animal shelter weekly. I would love to care for your pet and make sure they have a comfortable, happy stay. Thanks for considering me :) I work fully remote, so your pet will get lots of attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and playtime to match your pet’s routine. My apartment is in a safe, gated, pet-friendly community with a dog park. Pets will have a comfortable place to relax, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love and attention while in my care.

“Zachary was absolutely amazing! He helped me out last minute and made the whole experience completely stress free. He was very communicative, kept me updated throughout the visit, and truly went above and beyond. He took such great care of my mini Goldendoodle, gave him lots of pets and attention, and it was obvious my dog was happy and comfortable with him. My dog was in such caring hands and it gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Zachary again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and dependable dog walker!”

About: I grew up with a brindle boxer who was truly part of my family, and losing her a couple years ago was one of the hardest things I’ve gone through. Since then, I’ve been fostering dogs through the Humane Society, everything from shy rescues to energetic puppies. Ive fostered dogs that had kennel cough to dogs that needed to gain weight after being rescued from horrible conditions. Fostering taught me how to handle different personalities, build trust with nervous dogs, and give each pet the patience and love they need. Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I bring that same level of attention and compassion to every pet I watch. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I’m available most days and fully flexible, I'm pursuing a degree and have class Tuesday and Thursday from 9am–12pm, but I’m available the rest of the day and all other days of the week. This gives me a very flexible schedule for walks, drop‑ins, and house sitting. I plan my day around pet care, so your dog always gets consistent attention, timely visits, and plenty of love. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I follow all instructions exactly, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your dog is never put in an unsafe situation. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with foster dogs, so I know how to handle different personalities and energy levels. I always double‑check leashes, harnesses, and feeding routines, and I keep a close eye on your pet during every visit. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.
“"I can't say enough good things about susi! From our first meet-and-greet, I knew my fur baby, Azula, was in excellent hands. She sent me regular updates and photos, which totally put my mind at ease while I was away. It's clear she genuinely loves animals and goes the extra mile to make sure they're happy and comfortable. I came home to a relaxed and happy pup. I highly recommend susi to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!"”
“Teresa was so patient with some of the hiccups of getting through property gate, and then door code not working… and, saved us by taking on helping us with a last minute request. We will definitely reach out to Teresa again in the future :)”
“Bella was simply wonderful. From booking through her walk and hang with Rex, she was very communicative. Her summary notes were very thorough and she provided great insight into my little guy. I would 100% book again.”

About: Hi! My name is Izzy, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both cats and dogs and have spent most of my life caring for them, fostering them, and learning what they need to feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ve worked professionally with animals at a vet clinic for about 6 months and at two different kennels for a total of about two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets of all personalities and needs. During this time I learned how to properly handle feeding routines, recognize when pets need bathroom breaks or litter box changes, and administer medications when needed. I’ve also fostered both cats and dogs throughout my life, which has taught me patience, compassion, and how to help animals adjust to new environments. Currently, I have a pet of my own who I absolutely adore and care for every day. Outside of pet care, I’m a fitness instructor, so I love staying active and spending time outdoors. Long walks, playtime, and getting pets moving is something I truly enjoy. But I also appreciate the quiet side of pet care—relaxing on the couch, giving pets attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Living with and caring for animals has shown me how important they are in our lives. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and make sure they feel happy, safe, and well taken care of while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, which allows me to fit pet care easily into my week. I currently work part-time Thursday and Friday nights and attend school Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Outside of those times, I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime. I’m happy to stop by once or twice a day to make sure pets are cared for and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 I have two cats of my own, so I’m unable to host other pets in my home. However, I’m happy to come to your home to provide care. This can include walks and playtime for dogs, and feeding, playtime, and litter care for cats, typically twice a day. but more if needed! I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while you’re away. I can easily follow directions when it comes to something specific and i am happy to accommodate to the needs of your pet and make sure they are provided for.

About: My experience caring for family pets began at 16 years old. A noteworthy pet sitting involved caring for a household with one female dog, her six newly born puppies, two adolescent dogs, and a senior dog for a week and a half. I believe this highs shows my ability to handle diverse pet household needs. Also, I have gained some experience in pet care for cats since October 2023. I work 12-hour shifts from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and every other Wednesday. I am available every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, along with every other Wednesday. I can inform you if I have that week's Wednesday off or not when you send your request. As a pet owner of a dog and a cat, I understand that each pet requires a unique approach to their daily habits and needs. I will stand by your instructions for the care of your pet(s), with the consideration I expect when others care for my own pets when I'm away. I hold no judgment over their care needs.
About: I’m a friendly, calm pet walker who genuinely does this for the animals. As a vegan, I’m big on kindness and gentle, respectful care—so your dog or cat gets the comfort, patience, and attention they need. I offer dog walks and cat-friendly drop-ins, with reliable check-ins and a calm approach that helps pets feel safe. I have over a life time of love and experience for our furry friends. I am also experienced with older dogs and administering any medication needed.P.S I love plants, and if you’d like help while you’re away, I can take care of your greenery with simple watering and light checks.

About: I’ve always had a dog or cat in my presence growing up and loved nothing more than to show them care and love! I’ve been a reliable sitter for family in the past. I am a full time student at Arizona State University, but am all to your animals this summer!! I am available all day every day! In my clients home, I will respect their privacy and home but offer my greatest services to their animal. I am a trustworthy individual who believes respecting one’s boundaries, inside or out of the home is important!
About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I have a PRN position at a children’s hospital, so I have plenty of time to check in on your baby/babies. I work a short Monday shift from 12-4PM. I have a hybrid pharmacy schedule, so I am able to attend classes from wherever I am. I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.

I enjoy taking walks daily and don’t have pets myself so being able to walk with a purpose is something I’d enjoy. I have a fenced backyard with lots of grass, a big house for the pets to roam in, and like to keep a watchful eye at all times
About: I'm gonna be honest and say that I don't have any "professional experience," BUT I have pet sat and house sat for my family members multiple times when they've gone out of town, so I do have something under my belt. I have also been surrounded by a number of both cats and dogs since I was a baby, which I have had the pleasure of taking care of and growing up with. I love animals of every kind, even the mean ones, and I would love to love yours too. I'm currently a full-time student, but half of my schedule is online, which frees up a lot of my time to take care of sweet fluffy babies! (Which is what I'd rather be doing anyway, so...) Whatever is most comfortable for you and your pets is what I will roll with. I am not in the business of messing up any routines, so you just let me know exactly what you want done for your pet and it'll happen. Boom.

“Alani and her family took great care of my dogs. My oldest dog is blind and has diabetes. He needs insulin every 12 hours; nonetheless, Alani handled him very well. Both of my dogs typically come home after being boarded at a dog hotel with some weight loss, but with Alani that was NOT the case. 10/10 dog sitter.”

I will definitely be using her for any future boarding needs—I couldn’t recommend her more!”

We’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”

“David was so great to Rudy & Leahy. He communicated well, took phenomenal care of them (multiple walks daily) and gave them all the puppy love! I will request David to watch them every time moving forward. He is a great guy who cares about your animals like they are his own.”

“Darbi and Nate were great! We had a few schedule changes post-booking and they were so flexible and accommodating. They took Finny in and just loved on him so much! Sent updates and pictures which was great! In fact…we’re convinced that the poor dog is mad we brought him home 😂 Highly recommend!!”
“Nique did a great job for me. I contacted her with very short notice (about 48 hours from needing a sitter) and she was still able to accommodate and work with me. My dog Achilles stayed with her for a week and was treated very well, thank you!”
“This was our second boarding with Miss Stacy and she once again took amazing care of Capri. She goes for walks early and in the evening to beat the heat and has some nice shady spots for quick midday outings. I can tell Capri is very happy staying with her. I highly recommend Stacy and will book again.”
“Zach and Maddie were the absolute best! From the moment I met them I knew my dog was in great hands. They are genuine dog lovers. I got lots of updates while I was away. It was such a relief being gone for a week and not having to worry about my dog. They even took him on a picnic! 10/10. Highly recommend.”
