“This was our first experience using Rover. Carina and Santiago help us and our dog feel very comfortable with the experience. We sent updates while we were away and we knew Marty was well taken care of!”
“Daniel is awesome! He clearly loves pups and showed that to our service dog Nacho. The photos he sent each day gave us comfort knowing Nacho was in a warm and loving place while we traveled. Will certainly be asking Daniel to look after Nacho again and takes my mind off knowing I have to find other places to take care of Nacho. Thank you Daniel!”
“Cameron and Tyson are gems! My dad passed away unexpectedly and I was really stressed about finding someone new to watch our Emma girl on semi short notice. Fortunately, we found Cameron and Tyson and all of my nerves went away. Emma was immediately happy to be in their big back yard and settled in really quickly. We received daily updates with the cutest photos and videos that were so fun to receive! It was easy to see she was having fun and felt right at home in their space. When we got back she was over the moon to see us, but also excited to show us her two new humans! I can’t recommend Cameron and Tyson enough. 💙”
“Our dogs live going to Rons, his two dogs are friendly and our dogs live playing with them. He always sends a lot of photos and updates. Ron genuinely enjoys dog sitting. I always feel good dropping them off with him.”
“Can’t say enough great things. Ashley is very sweet has great vibes to her. Friendly dogs and my pup loved it there with her. It was her first over night with someone new and she did really there. Ashley made it very comfortable for me to have her watch my pup. Thank you so much and will be seeing you very soon”
“Julie is amazing! She worked with me during a tight schedule and setup to support Skip well. He had an amazing time with great updates and photos. Highly recommend and will use services again!”
“Korrina was the sweetest! She asked all the questions and sent me daily updates. My puppy came back looking so happy and rested. Thank you so much for taking care of my Daisy. I will definitely be rebooking 🤗”
“Darlene went above and beyond with our little girl, Rosie. We really put her through the ringer. Rosie is older and has health issues that occasionally arise. Just before her stay, she started experiencing incontinence, which, though treated, was not yet under control during her stay with Darlene. Poor Darlene had to use her mop quite a bit, and despite the burden, she treated Rosie so gently and sweetly. Even though having accidents normally stresses Rosie out, she was very content at Darlene's. She was given a lot of love, a healthy amount of treats, and plenty of outside and playtime with Darlene's little pom, Foxi. We were able to relax knowing that Rosie was in great hands. We're big fans of Darlene. Will book again, if she'll have us.”
“David was excellent to work with! He was understanding of my dog's anxiety needs, handled him well on walks, and gave him lots of care and attention during my dog's stay. David also communicated well and gave us daily updates!”
“I highly recommend Shiela! My dog is always happy to be with her. She sends pictures frequently so that we know that our dog is doing well. She follows all directions given regarding giving meds and general care.”
“Kat kept my 2 year old Cavapoo for a week. She sent me pictures daily, has great communication. My dog loves attention and they seemed to give him plenty of that. He had the time of his life playing with her dogs. I would highly recommend her for your boarding needs.”
“Jessica was amazing! She is very responsive and asked many questions to get to know my pup to make sure he was comfortable. I was grateful for her updates and pictures she sent, it definitely gave me peace of mind while I was away. My Yoda came home so relaxed so I know he had a ball 🥹. Thank you Jessica!”

“Pamela was amazing with our old boy, Bentley. He has never been left with a stranger before and he seemed really happy and comfortable with her. We received so many photos showing their activities each day. We really appreciate the love an attention she gave our boy. We are already planning our next trip and will be scheduling to take Bentley back here very shortly. Thank you!!!”
“Sean was great, very professional and accommodating and it is clear he really cares for the dogs. He has a nice yard and place for the dogs to be indoors. I will definitely use him again to take care of Zeke.”
“Miriam was exceptional! She took care of our dog Kobe for a week when we were out of town. We got daily updates with pictures showing Kobe was having so much fun! There were lots of play time and snuggle time with her family. She has a beautiful, clean house with a spacious backyard, a perfect setup for any dog. We highly recommend her and we are looking forward to be back soon.”
“Daisy had a wonderful time staying with Richard and Jeannette for a couple of days. She even ate all of her meals, which means she was quite content! We highly recommend Richard and Jeannette to take care of your furry friend.”
“I’m so thankful for the care Sylvie provided to my pup for an extended time that I was out of town. I will definitely ask Sylvie to sit for me again in the future!”
“What a find! Stephanie is the best! I can’t believe what all she did. She bathed the dogs, cleaned their crates, worked on some training and it was an absolute godsend when I was really desperate for someone to take both my dogs and going into the hospital. so so grateful for what good care she took of my boys.”

“Maggie did a great job with my kitties. Besides feeding them and keeping their litter box clean, she also played with the kitties and spent time with them. They are hoping she will come back again! Thank you Maggie!”
“10/10 would recommend Alayne! She was wonderful with our two cats and went above and beyond to care for them. Alayne is professional, knowledgeable and caring. We appreciated and enjoyed her updates and photos while we were away.”
“Alora is conscientious, thoughtful and communicative. She gives me very good notes and is on time. She cares about my cats and really lets me know how they’re doing. I feel very safe leaving them in her care!”
“Allison is wonderful! We’ve had her check on our cats multiple times now and she always does such a great job. She even popped by a day early because I forgot to fill up my cats automatic feeders and one wasn’t going off. She’s a life saver for sure! I’d recommend her to anyone & everyone :)”
“Alba is a great and caring individual. I’d love for her to continue to take care of our cats when we are out. She’s the best!! On our first initial visit, I appreciated that she immediately asked further questions/clarification about my pets to ensure they had the best care.”
“Rachel was wonderful with my cat giving him affection and play time while I was away. She was flexible and knows what she's doing, always checked in and helped make my time away a little less stressful for me and my little guy.”
“Great pet sitters for my 7 year old cat. They took great care of her and the apt while I was away, and were very easy to communicate with. Highly recommended and I would happily book them again for my next trip.”
“Alyssa did a great job checking on my dog. She included plenty of photos and updates during each visit. I had to modify the trip a couple times and Alyssa was very easy to work with.”
“Did a great job dropping in on my kitties! They have a specific feeding routine that requires measuring out raw food with a scale and dosing medication into one of their meals. She handled both tasks with ease and seemed incredibly comfortable with the routine. She even went the extra mile by turning my plant lights on and off! She is very friendly, offers highly competitive pricing, and left me feeling completely confident that my cats were in good hands. I look forward to booking with her again!”
“Robin is the best! Friendly, efficient, and very flexible! She puts up with a lot from my spoiled little girls. But she is always there for them and for me. What a wonderful person! Her care and kindness are greatly appreciated!”
“Colby was great!! I was looking for someone to check in on my cat and give him some attention while I was gone for a few days and she took good care of him. I’m grateful for the pictures I got of my cat while I was gone. I definitely recommend Colby to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter and next time I’m in need of one I will definitely be asking her again.”
“Cassidy helped us when we were in a pinch! I was able to book with her last minute and she loved on our sweet pup! So very thankful for her. She communicated with me throughout her visits as well which provided the reassurance that our girl was comfortable and taken care of.”
“Sydney is always quick to respond and takes good care of our elusive Gobstopper. She takes the time on her visits even though our furball is usually hiding under the bed and being antisocial.”
“Fantastic sitter. Enthusiastic, capable, above and beyond. I was on a three week overseas trip and I had never given the keys to my home and care of the cats to someone outside my family before. She made me feel completely at ease with her contacts and numerous photos and videos of them. She’s fantastic and a genuine lover of animals. I can’t recommend her enough and will engage her again anytime I need a sitter!!!!”
“Tiffany was absolutely amazing!!! She went above and beyond in taking care of my kitties, even when I accidentally threw a few curve balls at her. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a loving person to watch their animals and look forward to using her services again in the future. :)”
“Nia did a great job taking care of our dog, Lulu. Nia was very good at communicating everything she observed and all the things she did while spending time with Lulu. She really paid attention to Lulu’s behavior and mood and her notes really let us know Lulu was in good hands.”
“Kendall is great! She came for my cats' visit even when she had extenuating circumstances that would have totally warranted a cancellation. I didn't have a chance to meet with her before our booking, but Kendall was nonetheless trustworthy, professional, and easy to coordinate with. My cats clearly fell in love with her immediately, and even my super shy kitty came right out to interact with Kendall on her first visit!”
“Marina was great with getting my two cats to warm up to her as they can be shy. She communicated well while I was away and she was open to different ideas to get the cats out of hiding 😅 I highly recommend her and would definitely rebook with her for my future cat sitting needs. Thanks so much!”

“Melissa is amazing! Our pup took to her instantly and seemed happy and comfortable really quickly. Mellisa is great about sending pictures and a little report card at the end of a stay. She is a kind, organized and it’s obvious how good she is with animals! Highly, highly recommend her!!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a dog in my care. I have had many years of experience watching and taking care of mine and others dogs. I have watched my family’s and close friends dogs many times throughout the years. I have dog sitted and had multiple doggy sleepovers up to a month before. I have watched dogs as small as Chihuahuas all the way up to German Shepherds. There is no task I can’t handle! (: I can’t wait to meet your baby and becoming their new friend! I am currently unemployed but looking to make pet care my full time job. I have more than enough time available for dog care. I spend most my time with my own dogs and or family members and friends. I have a great back yard where dogs can run around and feel safe. I am pretty minimal when it comes to furniture but do have plenty of room for dogs to lay around. Dogs are free to roam as they please and can freely go outside. I wash all couch covers twice a week, sweep & vacuum everyday, and mop as needed. I am very big on keeping poop picked up and making sure things are regularly cleaned up, like toys or trash that might be out. Bathroom doors stay closed and cleaning supplies are locked up. I do my absolute best to ensure the safety and comfortability for any animal in my care.
“Water and John are very warm and friendly. They love dogs and are wonderful, communicative caregivers. They were extremely accommodating when I had a last minute request for daycare for my dog. Thank you to you both for being the kind and caring human beings that you are.”
“Ashley and her family are the best! We were in town to deal with some business and with varying hours and she happily was very flexible about what time we needed to pick our Lily up! Our dog had a blast and was pulling on the leash to get back to the door when we brought her back after the first day. Ashley provided walks, training sessions,rest time and playtime. Our dog is on a low-fat diet for medical reasons and she conscientiously gave her the treats we brought. She sends several videos during the day so you can see your baby. There were a couple other dogs in care at the same time and she did an excellent job of introducing and monitoring the dogs. Overall a wonderful experience! We don’t live in Tucson but if we ever return for a visit we would definitely use her again and we highly recommend her to others ❤️”
“I had a meet and greet with Sylvie I was so impressed with her knowledge, confidence, and compassion with dogs. Her house is very homey and warm and inviting environment. He was very comfortable as if he was at home. My dog can't wait to get started. So he had his first daycare and I was very impressed with Sylvie handled his first day. She's brilliant”
“Very nice young woman! My Ranger seemed very calm and relaxed in her home when I went to pick him up. He is just a young pup and she was able to manage him. I was really happy with her quick response to my last minute request, it was a life saver! Would recommend!”
“Barbara was great! It is obvious that she cares very much for the dogs in her care. She has a great house for pets and the yard is perfect. She sent me pictures of Lilly regularly throughout the day. I will use Barbara again without hesiration.”
“Abby was great! I was in a pickle as I had to have workers come out to my house within 12 hours and my dog couldn’t be present. I couldn’t find any care for her but Abby came through. She was VERY flexible as I work unpredictable long hours and constantly sent me photos and updates. It was a very hectic day for me, but she was always calm, accommodating and soo sweet it took a huge burden off me. Will def be booking her in the future. My baby had so much fun just getting 1-1 attention all day from Abby. She really does love the animals she watches and wants to help the owners. She’s prompt, transparent and genuine. She really does have all the love in the world for animals and people. 10/10 recommend.”

“Stephanie is wonderful! I needed doggie daycare last minute and she took excellent care of my puppy Frankie. It was my first time leaving her in someone else’s home, and I was at ease knowing she was in caring hands. She has a wealth of experience and is a valued and trustworthy sitter.”
“Lesley has been great with Snowball multiple times. Very caring and accommodating for last minute circumstances (on my end). I trust her and appreciate everything she's done for my pup!”

I have a fenced yard with a gate that latches from the outside. I always have an eye on my dogs while they are pottying, and are let outside individually. When they are playing, I’m always sitting on the porch with them. In your home, you can expect me to do the same! I’d love to spend time playing with them outside, monitor them closely, and have fun!
“Steve was fantastic, I was in a bit of a pinch as we were having our bathtub replaced short notice and he was flexible and provided our dog Padme with a fun filled day with other doggie friends! I would definitely recommend him 10/10.”
About: I am a warm person that loves to treat our pets with so much attention, patience, affection, and reliability, treating every pet like they’re part of my own family, it is important they feel that way. I currently am a stay at home mom taking care of my baby girl. My routine is mostly quiet and a calm life motherhood gives, enjoying being at home.

I overthink any possibility or possible situation in order to keep them safe!

“Alayne was an exceptional caretaker for my pup while our family dealt with a tough surgical recovery. She gave our dog excellent attention and great walks when we were being pulled in a few different directions. We are so lucky to have crossed paths with Alayne!”
“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”
“Allison was sooo good and sweet to my baby! 10/10 recommend. She sent me photos and videos of him and spent time with him when she didn’t have to. Thank you and you are officially a repeat in my books! Thank you!!!”
About: 8+ years caring for dogs, cats, and special needs pets — patient, gentle, and always treating your pets like my own. I’m comfortable with seniors, puppies, shy pets, and administering medication. At home, I share life with my “doggie brother” Scottie (a sweet, sociable dog) and my own “doggie son” Colby (a playful corgi puppy). Living with them has given me daily, hands-on experience meeting different needs and personalities. I adapt my care so every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Expect regular updates, photos, and a whole lot of tail wags (or purrs!). I’m available every day, including most evenings, and can work with a variety of schedules. Pet care is my main focus, so you can count on consistent, reliable service. I’m happy to accommodate both regular bookings and last-minute needs (for boarding or house sitting, I prefer 3–5 days’ notice when possible). I mainly serve the Tanque Verde area and nearby neighborhoods. My home is quiet, low-traffic, and pet-friendly — perfect for boarding. Message me with your dates or special requests, and I’ll do my best to make it work! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I tailor care to each pet’s unique personality, creating a calm, loving environment that feels like home. For Dogs: My home is fully equipped for canine guests — multiple comfy beds, fresh food and water bowls, high-quality dog food, puzzle toys for mental stimulation, leashes for walks, grooming supplies, dental care items, and plenty of healthy treats. A secure fenced yard provides safe, supervised outdoor time. For Cats: I have cozy cat beds, scratching posts, and toys ready for play. To keep your cat’s routine familiar, I ask owners to bring their own litter box, litter, food, medications, and any favorite items that bring comfort. This helps reduce stress and make the transition smooth. Meet My Resident Pets: • Scottie (West Highland Terrier): Gentle with cats and friendly with all dogs. Experienced in living harmoniously with cats. Greets politely and gives space after an initial sniff. • Colby (Pembroke Welsh Corgi): A playful puppy with great adaptability, quick to settle after meeting new friends. Always friendly, even with bigger dogs. Both are fully vaccinated, well-socialized, and groomed regularly. They’re used to meeting new pets and can be kept separate if your pet prefers solo time. What You Can Expect: I follow all owner instructions carefully, maintain a clean pet-friendly space, and provide the right mix of play, exercise, and relaxation. Whether your pet loves cuddles or active play, they’ll get individualized attention and care — so you can travel with peace of mind.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little. We had some family friends that always brought their dogs over and I took care of them. I knew a lot of people that traveled for work were just traveled in general and I would either have their dog at my house or I would go over there and I would take care of their dogs. I’m currently going to only be doing mornings from 7 AM to 1 PM this will be for Monday thru Friday. This would be a perfect time frame, I’m a mother and had to work around that schedule. I have a fence. I have a pitbull that is not a normal pitbull. He is very sweet very loving and very caring. He’s 8 years old and loves to climb 10 foot fences, and loves lizards and squirrel. I always make sure to take my dog on rides and get him his own little pup cup! ❤️
About: I've cared for friends' dogs over the last few years with extended visits as long as 4 months. Let me care for your sweet doggo and get to know them. I'm a self employed artist so I make my own schedule and have a fair share of flexibility. Throughout the day I can drop ins depend on your needs. I'd be interested in caring for your animals in your homes. I can drop in any time throughout the day depending on our plan and schedules.
“Super grateful for the wonderful walks and attention Logan gave my dog - she was super happy coming back from walks and I knew she was in safe hands while I was away”
About: I love all and any kind of animals big or small from kittens and puppy’s to large cows and horses I even good with reptiles have had more animals to care of personally medical and non medical I do have 3 dogs, bunny’s as well as turtles so they get care in the morning as well as evening and all day as needed I have a fenced yard and can have animals inside or out and can be crated if needed if can would love to snuggle with or go for walks or exercise then if needed
“Larry did a great job with Ellie. He was attentive to her needs and communicated along the way. I’m excited to have Larry as my new walker and seems to be a great fit. I would recommend Larry for anyone needing a dog walker for their fur child.”
“Rachel is great! She’s understanding with our rescue pup with some behavioral issues and quick to respond to bookings. A great regular walker!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have pet sat for family and friends over the years. I even pet sat 2 birds when I was 11, learning that I am not a bird person 😅 but I love the pups. I have a year of professional dog walking experience and am excited to be able to add pet sitting. I have helped train the family pets my whole life mostly the basics: perimeter training, no jumping, stay, sit, etc. I will implement any training techniques and goals you have been working on with your pup to be sure they keep growing. If your pup is in their final years I would love to help you make them the best. I was able to see my beloved Rocky and Zuri through all their days. Zuri's hips where too weak in the end. A almost hundred pound rhodesian ridgeback, I would carry her when needed often having her lay on blankets and pulling her around the house then lifting her out side. She was such a sweet girl her and Rocky both lived for about 14 years. I am available any day after 2pm. I work mornings so am not always availble in the mornings. During the summer this does lead to later walk times since the heat is so much. If sitting it would also mean really early walks on my work days. When am taking care of another's beloved pup I do my best to maintain their routine and any precaution their parents take. I.e. keep on the leash, watch that they don't eat stuff, crating when home alone, etc.
About: Wonderland Dog Resort and Spa is a Doggy Vacation Destination! (Find our NEW page on Facebook) We LOVE dogs in this home! All breeds, all sizes, all ages and ESPECIALLY senior dogs! I have been training, walking, grooming, feeding, and otherwise raising four-legged babies for 32 years. I've cared for many types of dogs with different abilities and special care needs including Duke, a senior golden retriever with severe allergies, a hernia, arthritis, and bone cancer- an energetic 175lb. Yellow lab named Kato, who had search and rescue training best used to deroot small trees during fetch, and to locate his favorite tug-rope for endless hours of training reinforcement, known to him only as "playtime", -a frail teddybear rescue named Chug, with debilitating anxiety and canine behavioral disorder, requiring medication- and Xeno, a husky variety, who requires constant exercise and attention, to name a few. Good pet care comes from recognizing each animal as an individual with needs and then meeting those needs. There is no such thing as a bad dog. Only humans whom don't understand animal cues and how to effectively communicate with them. My goal is to build a relationship with each pet and their families to not only offer needed boarding and walking services, but to support their personal or medical needs and training journey as well. In my home we focus on learning through fun and positive reinforcement for good behavior. Dogs can expect treats for following commands, defecating or urinating outside, and for a reward after bathing or grooming, with owner consent. Dogs requiring medication are welcome, and again will be given a treat for taking meds, with owner consent. Treats are always provided free of charge and you are welcome to supply your own if your dog has dietary restrictions. What to expect: All visiting dogs who are ambulatory are walked a minimum every 2-3 hours and offered playtime in our shaded grass yard for 30-45 minutes at a time 2-3 times a day, unless it is unsafe to do so due to weather. When visiting you, I strive to closely follow your itinerary when provided, or provide well rounded care without instruction through walks, playtime with toys, obedience training, and affection. When not out enjoying activites, visiting dogs will be in an air-conditioned home with access to dog-beds and toys, and unless requested, are not discouraged from going on furniture. There will be other dogs present, since we have 2 very friendly registered service dogs of our own. If we come to you we do not bring our dogs unless requested to do so. Dogs will interact and train with our child to encourage behavioral and training growth in a distracting atmosphere. All dogs will have a safe environment and compassionate care while their humans are away. We will love your fur-babies like they are our own loved ones, every single time, no matter the challenges they face. Dogs dietary and medical needs are my top priority. All feeding and medication schedules will be followed with the strictest adherence. Visiting dogs not on dietary restrictions have unregulated access to food and water while boarding, unless requested otherwise. In home feedings will be as scheduled by client but water will always be checked/changed/filled. Positive reinforcement is our method. We have 2 registered service dogs of our own and will happily assist your training journey. Dogs will be rewarded with treats, unless otherwise requested, any time they go potty outside, follow commands, take meds, bathe, or otherwise complete a task appropriately. All dogs have access to toys, beds, and a crate during boarding. When at my home, leashes are required outdoors, except when we visit the dog park. When visiting your home my goal is to make that visit the highlight of your dogs life! I strive to play with all pets in my care. If your dogs do not take interest in toys, as has been my experience that not all do, that time is spent with cuddles, belly rubs, and command response training, in addition to the scheduled walk or potty break. I make sure the pet feels quality time was spent with them by someone who came just to see them and values their importance in the family. When at my home, dogs are allowed to move freely throughout the house. We have laminate floors that are easy on allergies and make accidents easy to clean up. We keep our home quite cool, with central air, which is great for northern breeds, and we offer plenty of warm soft places to curl up, otherwise. Your pets will be treated like a member of our family. We love animals and want them to have the happiest day of their lives whether they visit us or we come to them. Bathing services offered for non-aggressive pups. Wonderland Dog Resort is in operation 24 hours a day, over 350 days of the year, offering both holiday and extended stay care and is my full-time career, as the owner and operator. Mommy and daddy know best! We follow all itineraries provided and are extremely diligent about following medication regimens, dietary restrictions, and other special needs. We specialize in (but are not limited to) Special Needs dogs. The safety of our pups is our number one concern! We also work with them on command response training to help ensure future safety after they leave. Pet patents recieve photo and video updates an the end of every day. Dogs can expect lots of pets, treats, fetch, tug, gentle brushings, walks, car rides, snuggles, trips to the dog park, and lots of socialization! All dogs are kept on slip-resistant leashes at all times, when not at the dog park. We go out for potties every 1.5-2 hours, walk every 4 hours, and go to the dog park nightly. Dogs socialize under close supervision and are trained on proper socialization. Wonderland is set-up for comfort. Dogs are allowed on furniture and most are able to sleep in our bed with us or are welcome to chose from the large selection of crates, beds, pillows, and blankets. Dog toys are rotated every few days to keep playtime interesting. We keep pups engaged and active and provide companionship to timid and anxious dogs, who may be less playful or experiencing their first time away from home.
About: I've had all sorts of pets my entire life, but almost always at least one dog. I spent years volunteering at a pet store in high school. I also have a degree in Biology, focusing on animal behavior and wildlife science. I spent a great year after college volunteering at a dog rescue. I have a very flexible work-from-home job. I have one set meeting everyday, but am almost always available to step out and take care of anything that I need to. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door. I have two dogs with very different personalities; one is happy and playful, the other is older and just likes to relax. They've made me good at meeting different pets' needs. I always try to make them feel happy, safe, and loved!
“It's always a joy to have Lily walk the dogs. We were watching our daughters dog who was a little unfriendedly the first time meeting her (which was normal for this dog). Lily knows and understands dogs and was able to have the dog get comfortable with her. Both dogs came back tired and exhausted but very happy from their morrning walk. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve dog sat for my family for extended periods of time (3 weeks to over a month at a time), watching multiple dogs of varying sizes. I also have experience watching friends dogs, including a senior dog who needs around the clock care. I’m currently unemployed, which means I have plenty of availability and can make watching your precious babies my main priority. Any day and time works for me, just as long as it doesn’t conflict with any appointments or other responsibilities that I may have. Afternoons and evenings are preferred, but I can make mornings work, too! I can take your dog/dogs out as much as needed when I’m dog sitting, as well as administering medications, crating them at certain times, and keeping them separated while eating if necessary. I will have plenty of time to dedicate to walking them, loving on them, and playing with them. Or if they prefer their space, that’s not a problem at all.
About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, and reptiles for the last 12 years! I myself have 2 dogs and 1 cat and will care for your pets as I do my own. I have worked with puppies, kittens, as well as various medical needs. I currently work temporary jobs from home. So I can certainly work with your schedule! I am available Monday- Saturday mornings, afternoons, and nights. As well as Sunday mornings and nights. I offer dog walks and drop-in visits! I am able to work with your instructions on caring for your pet! I have had animals that need to be walked, or can only get outside time in their yard. I have cared for pets on bed rest with stitches, as well as having to administer medications throughout the day.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior pets, making me adaptable to different needs. I’m skilled with crate training, potty training, and teaching basic commands. I also care for my cat, giving me experience with a variety of pet temperaments. What sets me apart is my patient, positive-reinforcement approach, ensuring your pets feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s energetic playtime, puppy training, or gentle care for seniors, I’m here to provide a stress-free, loving environment for your furry family members! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I prioritize flexibility and availability. I am currently taking a break from my career and have no work commitments at this time. In my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment for pets. I have a pet-friendly space free from hazards, with secure areas for play and relaxation. For overnight stays or extended visits, I ensure that all necessary supplies—such as food, toys, and bedding—are provided, along with regular routines to minimize stress. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort and security by following your guidelines and routines closely. I ensure that doors and windows are secured, and I’m attentive to your pet’s needs, providing regular check-ins, exercise, and playtime. I also maintain a clean environment, including thorough litter box cleaning and sanitizing any areas your pet frequents. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities!

“Can’t say enough great things. Ashley is very sweet has great vibes to her. Friendly dogs and my pup loved it there with her. It was her first over night with someone new and she did really there. Ashley made it very comfortable for me to have her watch my pup. Thank you so much and will be seeing you very soon”

I was grateful for her updates and pictures she sent, it definitely gave me peace of mind while I was away. My Yoda came home so relaxed so I know he had a ball 🥹. Thank you Jessica!”

“Miriam was exceptional! She took care of our dog Kobe for a week when we were out of town. We got daily updates with pictures showing Kobe was having so much fun! There were lots of play time and snuggle time with her family. She has a beautiful, clean house with a spacious backyard, a perfect setup for any dog. We highly recommend her and we are looking forward to be back soon.”
“What a find! Stephanie is the best! I can’t believe what all she did. She bathed the dogs, cleaned their crates, worked on some training and it was an absolute godsend when I was really desperate for someone to take both my dogs and going into the hospital. so so grateful for what good care she took of my boys.”
“Water and John were absolutely amazing dog sitters. They sent multiple updates and photos a day letting me know how Brady was doing. I could just tell he was getting a lot of care and love. Would definitely use them again!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot recommend Mercedez highly enough! From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry baby in her care. Her passion for dogs is evident, and it was clear that my pup was going to be well-cared for. She took the time to understand my dog's personality, needs, and quirks, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for my pup. She also created a cozy environment at home. It was clear that my dog felt safe and happy, which is the most important thing for any pet parent. When I returned, my dog was healthy, happy, and even a little reluctant to leave. It was a relief knowing that my dog was in such capable hands. If you’re looking for a reliable, loving, and attentive dog sitter, look no further than Mercedez. I will definitely be booking her again for future trips! Thank you, Mercedez, for taking such wonderful care of my furry family member! 🐾❤️”
“My pup gets really sad when she is separated from us. I'm so grateful we found Nancy. It's obvious how much she loves dogs and gives them special care. It makes me feel so much better when we have to leave our furry one behind. We've booked Nancy at least 5-6 times now and I won't use anyone else. Thank you, Nancy!”
“Vicky! I wanted to thank you, for taking such good care of my baby Theodore while I was away. I was very comfortable leaving him with you. I was confident and I knew that he would be in good hands with you. I appreciate you keeping me posted with Theodore’s daily activities. I will definitely reach out to you in the future to watch my Theodore for me again. Thank you so much! For everything ”
“Absolutely adore Lesley & mini. My dogs stayed for 4 almost 5 days- the communication was fantastic, I never wondered how they were. They were spoiled the whole time and my puppies were so happy there I was worried they wouldn’t want to come home! ❤️ absolutely recommend and will be back!”
“Gina was so great with Hazel! Hazel can be a bit of a flight risk, so we’re always a little nervous about that, but Gina was very understanding and assured us they would be extra cautious. Gina sent pictures throughout Hazel’s stay and kept us updated. She took her to the dog park and on car rides which is perfect for Hazel who is high energy! She was also very flexible with meet and greet and pick up/drop off times as our schedule requires a later time. Would definitely book again!”
“Melissa provided wonderful home for my Westie! He was welcomed as part of her family and was obviously very well cared for. This was my first experience with Rover.com & I was very nervous until I met Melissa after interviewing a few others. She made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog for the weekend & sent several updates each day. I don’t think he wanted to come home! Highly recommend Melissa!”
“Loren was amazing and put some of my anxiety at ease with our high energy aussie. She sent daily recaps and pictures of our dogs. It looked like they had a wonderful time and were so happy/tired when picked up. She communicates quickly with any questions/concerns. Would love to have our dogs stay with her again!”
“Gail is awesome!! My 13 yr old pup needed a vet visit and meds under her care and she was right on top of it. She took great care of him! Gail is my new go-to dog sitter!”
