Laurie was just great in every aspect of boarding our pooch Mikey. She was very accommodating to our schedule and was quick to respond to calls and text. But most importantly, Laurie was fantastic with Mikey. One could immediately tell she is at ease with dogs. I would certainly use Laurie on our next visit to Prescott and recommend her to our friends with dogs. John and Nancy F.

We needed a place for Finnley for a long holiday weekend. He absolutely enjoyed his college visit and came back with a higher education and some new tricks. Isabella was incredibly responsive and flexible with our schedule while taking amazing care of Finn and keeping us updated about his adventures. We think he is excited to go back and visit his new feline friend Prince.

Stef was amazing!!! She cared so much for our dogs while they were with her. I am a nervous dog mom so I’m concerned any time my “kids” aren’t with me BUT Stef made it easy. She sent lots of updates to let me know what they were up to and how they were doing. She was also very flexible with us as our schedule changed. Stef was exceedingly patient and always willing to help our family. We would be grateful for the opportunity to leave our dogs with her again! 10 out of 5 stars! 😁

Rachel did a superb job taking care of our 15 month old pup for two weeks! She went above and beyond making sure that Rio was comfortable, entertained and safe. She provided ample pics and updates. She even did puppy “artwork” with her, which we got to keep. I was amazed at this level of care, which allowed me to not worry a bit. Priceless.

It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.

About: Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently have three of my own who mean the world to me. I’ve cared for cats from every walk of life and understand that each one has their own personality, boundaries, and needs. I approach every cat with patience, respect, and a calm energy that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I have hands-on experience caring for cats with medical needs, including closely monitoring a rescued kitten through kidney failure and administering IV treatments. I’m also comfortable giving eye drops and have cared for kittens with eye conditions requiring consistent medication. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I take the time to understand their routines, cues, and comfort levels so they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have spent the last 3 years traveling while doing house/pet sits throughout Mexico, Arizona, California, Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. My clients have included some high profile gigs in Bel-Air, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu, but I have also spent months at a time living off-grid in the Mexican jungle and caring for animals on remote farms. My experience dates back to 1991 when I worked my high school summer vacations on a sheep farm to escape city life. I love ALL animals, and have had a special connection with them, my whole life. Your pets (and babies) will be comfortable with me right away. I have been a mom to birds, rodents, fish, cats, and dogs. I do have some experience with reptiles, as well. I come with many years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats from the puppy/kitten stage through their golden years, so you can rest assured that any special accommodations your fur-baby may need will be met with kindness and compassion. I am particularly fond of, and experienced with Bully Breeds, Golden Retrievers, and Doodles of all varieties. I only provide pet care in the owners home as I’ve found it is a far less stressful experience for the pets and the sitter. It’s all I do, so your pets will get tons of attention and affection. I also do occasional dog walking gigs while I’m staying at your home. Your babies are my babies while you’re away, and your home will be treated with the utmost respect. Confidentiality and privacy are considered paramount, always.

About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond very quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and be sure to check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that we have on a daily basis. My reviews should give you an idea of what to expect when you book with me. I will send tons of pictures and videos every day. Headed out of town?? I’d love to stay with your dogs and create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Or we can all stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. Rest assured that they will be cared for as if they were my own while having the comfort and familiarity of your home, or the tons of fun that goes on at my place. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a much smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my pack needs. Our routine is generally foods, walks, parks, poops, pees, plays, sleeps, repeat…. I am flexible and can accommodate pretty much any type of needs for your pets. I am ready to come care for your pets whenever I am available. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.

About: Dog owners would love my service because I am very passionate about caring for dogs. Dogs would love my service because I give treats, unconditional love, and lots of hugs and petting. I have 3 dogs of my own and they get bathed, spoiled, treats, sleep with me and care when they are sick. In summer they get air conditioned and in winter they get by the heater. I am available anytime day or night. I will treat your dogs with the upmost respect and as if they were mine and you will be satisfied with my service and will want to bring them back. I can brush thier hair, bathe, love, and pet them. I will be honored and trusted to watch your dogs.

About: I've been taking care of pets ever since I was a child. Ive grown up near live stock and many types of animals and helped take care of them for my entire life. I have had 2 dogs and 3 cats, my oldest dog recently died of old age. I am very responsible and I care about animals. I will take care of your pets like they are my own. I love any type of animal big or small. My family and I have had many chihuauas in my lifetime. I love each of them very much. Any animal I care for will be well fed and watered and will get plenty of play time. All of the animals I currently have are super friendly. I live on a one acre fenced property. I currently am a full time college student, so I have alot of free time in which I usually always hang out with my animals. I have a fenced yard, and a puppy to keep your pet company. I also have a kennel so if needed they can go in there.

Nancy is always amazing. We have come to depend on her doggy daycare for our sensitive dog. He always enjoys his stay and trusts her so he can rest. For our elderly dog, it’s so much better than trying to take him to a business where the dogs are moving around and barking and anxious. That is too exhausting for our dog. Nancy’s peaceful home is ideal.

Our dog had great fun playing with the dogs at the sitter 😁. Laurie took them on a hike one day and our dog had a great time and was nice and tired out for a calm evening 😊. Lily was very excited to go back for her second day! You should be forewarned that her house is down a dirt road with ups and downs. Would definitely recommend this sitter for a social and energetic dog

About: I've had dogs and taken care of them since I was a young child. As an adult I’ve fostered dogs for over 5 years, taking care of all types of dogs. I have experience potty training, house breaking, bathing, and more. The dogs I have fostered came from all sorts of backgrounds; homeless, abusive households, neglected, seniors, disabled (blind, deaf, hard of hearing, missing limbs). I enjoy spending time with all animals and animals like to be around me. Currently working on my dog trainer certification I have a flexible schedule since I work from home most of the time. As a dog owner myself I spend a lot of time taking care of my dog. We go on walks 3 times a day, he gets treats, cuddles and play time all day long. On the weekends when the weather is nice we like to go for short hikes. Unfortunately I sustained a bad fall in 2024 and broke my back; so I am unable to care for any pet over 50lbs or any pet that is leash reactive or pulls on a leash. Since that would aggravate the injury and most definetely stop me from caring for pets all together; I hope you can understand! I have a small backyard where we go play fetch, we also love going to Frenchy’s or many of the other parks in the area for walks and off leash play when the weather is nice. Going for walks 2-3 times a day around the neighborhood as well

We had such a good experience leaving our Weimaraner with Eva. Our dog has separation anxiety, but with Eva he actually relaxed and seemed to enjoy himself! We received pictures throughout the stay, so we could relax and enjoy ourselves too. The location is a big plus for spending time around the plaza. We can't say enough good things about our Rover experience with Eva. Would definitely recommend.

She was great! Had puzzles for the dog and took her for a lovely walk. I'd definitely have her watch our dog again!

About: Caring for animals comes naturally, and nothing makes me happier than making them feel safe, loved, and at ease. Animals have always been part of my life, as I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats and more! I've raised puppies from 3 days old, having to bottle feed and potty train...all the way up to seniors, managing meds and declining capabilities. I volunteered at a shelter in Mexico for a year. Through that experience, I was exposed to a lot of medical and behavioral situations, which taught me a lot. My partner and I both work from home, which means your pup will never be lonely. We know how to make dogs feel comfortable, and aim to have them feel like they've taken a little vacation, too! I know leaving your pets can be stressful. I send lots of updates and pictures, so you can feel relaxed and assured your pup is happy and healthy. My partner and I work from home, and have a lot of flexibility in our schedule. We currently have a 10lb Chihuahua, who was left on our doorstep with umbilical cord still attached! At 2 years old now, he's a pretty easy going guy, and likes to be part of a pack from time to time. He usually gets 2 walks a day around the neighborhood. Or, we will do a nice long walk or hike, if time allows. We feed twice a day and provide treats for being a good dog, of course. I love to take work breaks to play tug of war or fetch. Belly rubs are available every night for all four legged residents of the house who want them! Any furry guests would fit seemlessly into our routine. We have a fenced yard, and are always home when pets are in the yard. No dangerous chemicals or pet hazards in our house. Generally, we aren't away from for more than a few hours. We are also happy to take them with us, whenever possible.

About: I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes most of my life with various health issues which I’ve been fortunate to learn from. I’ve been raising a now almost 3 year old Rottie pup (Raja); well-versed in training through positive reinforcement and happy to support any training that you are working on while your fur baby is in my care! I send lots of photo updates (I know how daunting it can be to leave your baby with a stranger), and I am always a call away for peace of mind. Know that your pup will be treated as family and very well loved while they are in my care 😊! This is currently my full time gig while I work on becoming a certified herbalist so my schedule is pretty flexible for playing or walking with your pups! I am available Monday-Friday with some weekends depending on the week. I am currently only taking home visits or walks as I get my outdoor area at home more situated! Safety and trust are very important to me, I will never put your dog or myself in any questionable situations, and will make sure our activities are suited to your comfortability. Water and treats are always on hand (let me know of any allergies they may have).

About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life so I understand the basics of training and taking care of them. I currently have an orange tabby named Prince who gets along super well with other dogs and cats! No worries if your pet doesn’t get along with others though, I can also have other people watch him while yours stays. I can care for pets whenever, I have classes throughout the week but since I stay on campus I’m never more than 5 minutes walking distance away from my dorm. On average I have about 3 hours of classes per week day so I’m home the rest of the time. I will be able to board always and do dog walks any day of the week. I have reliable transportation as well. My dorm is quite large so I have space to take care of pets, as well as toys and food and a litter box for cats if you can’t bring yours. I also live in a very outdoorsy campus so I can take dogs on long nature walks.

About: I grew up in a household with cats, dogs, small mammals, exotic and domestic birds, reptiles, and fish. I have experience as both a short and long term pet/house sitter. A large portion of my life has been spent working at pet stores, aquariums, wildlife rehabilitation facilities and with animal trainers so I have good background knowledge surrounding a large variety of animal care. By trade I am a biologist with a focus in the marine sciences. As a full-time field biologist, the field part of my job doesn’t allow me time to have pets of my own. So between field jobs I greatly enjoy the opportunity to pet sit since I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet! I feel that pet sitting is a great way to get some animal time in while also helping out. I am very attentive, caring, trustworthy, and dedicated. Every home has a routine and flow all its own, one of the most important things a sitter can do is maintain that rythem while the pet parent is away, and give lots of extra love too. Thank you for taking the time to review my information, I would be thrilled to speak with you about how we can work together to meet you and your pets needs.

About: I have spent the last 3 years traveling while doing house/pet sits throughout Mexico, Arizona, California, Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. My clients have included some high profile gigs in Bel-Air, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu, but I have also spent months at a time living off-grid in the Mexican jungle and caring for animals on remote farms. My experience dates back to 1991 when I worked my high school summer vacations on a sheep farm to escape city life. I love ALL animals, and have had a special connection with them, my whole life. Your pets (and babies) will be comfortable with me right away. I have been a mom to birds, rodents, fish, cats, and dogs. I do have some experience with reptiles, as well. I come with many years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats from the puppy/kitten stage through their golden years, so you can rest assured that any special accommodations your fur-baby may need will be met with kindness and compassion. I am particularly fond of, and experienced with Bully Breeds, Golden Retrievers, and Doodles of all varieties. I only provide pet care in the owners home as I’ve found it is a far less stressful experience for the pets and the sitter. It’s all I do, so your pets will get tons of attention and affection. I also do occasional dog walking gigs while I’m staying at your home. Your babies are my babies while you’re away, and your home will be treated with the utmost respect. Confidentiality and privacy are considered paramount, always.

About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond very quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and be sure to check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that we have on a daily basis. My reviews should give you an idea of what to expect when you book with me. I will send tons of pictures and videos every day. Headed out of town?? I’d love to stay with your dogs and create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Or we can all stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. Rest assured that they will be cared for as if they were my own while having the comfort and familiarity of your home, or the tons of fun that goes on at my place. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a much smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my pack needs. Our routine is generally foods, walks, parks, poops, pees, plays, sleeps, repeat…. I am flexible and can accommodate pretty much any type of needs for your pets. I am ready to come care for your pets whenever I am available. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.

About: Dog owners would love my service because I am very passionate about caring for dogs. Dogs would love my service because I give treats, unconditional love, and lots of hugs and petting. I have 3 dogs of my own and they get bathed, spoiled, treats, sleep with me and care when they are sick. In summer they get air conditioned and in winter they get by the heater. I am available anytime day or night. I will treat your dogs with the upmost respect and as if they were mine and you will be satisfied with my service and will want to bring them back. I can brush thier hair, bathe, love, and pet them. I will be honored and trusted to watch your dogs.
