“Heather always takes great care of our pups and was quick to respond to a last-minute request! She is always very communicative, with lots of photos and updates, and on time! We will continue to reach out to her when we need a dog sitter - thank you, Heather!”


“Laura was so kind and took great care of our dog Bella! We got updates every time she would do a visit with her. I was super impressed with how well she did with Bella, even though our dog had a lot of energy, Laura did great with her. Thank you so much for your time & we appreciate you stepping in to help us while our family was on vacation!!”


“Dina was wonderful. She's very personable which made for a fun meet-n-greet! Not only did she do a great job caring for my two boys but she took on other little tasks like bringing the newspaper and cleaning the food storage containers every day. I would definitely hire her again as my pet sitter! :)”


“Bethany is absolutely amazing! She definitely loves what she does and loves the animals she cares for. So nice to have detailed report cards and her communication is on point. She was on time and made sure our boys were taken care of. We very much appreciate her! We will be booking with her again for sure!”



“Jenny was very nice and came to meet the kitties before her drop ins. She took the most adorable pictures and spent some valuable playtime with them. 10/10 would have her watch my kittens again!”


“They are absolutely amazing, my dog loved his visits with them. They were happy to follow any small requests that were given and gave him so much love. He was always really happy in the days they stopped by, i couldn’t have asked for a better people to help me with my dog!”



“So grateful Dani came by when she did. She alerted me to a change in Cooper’s appearance and I was able to come home earlier than expected and get Cooper treated for a reaction to a bee sting. We are lucky to be able to use Dani’s services and appreciate her thoroughness and attention to detail with our boys! Thanks Dani!”


“So happy we found Daela! She did such an amazing job looking after our cat while we were out of town. She did such a great job of reassuring us that he was well taken care of so we didn’t feel guilty for leaving him. I would highly recommend her services!”


About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently share my home with two lovable pups—plus, I’m great with cats too! As a devoted pet parent myself, I understand how important your furry family members are to you. That’s why I treat every dog or cat I care for like one of my own—with patience, love, and lots of playtime. Whether it's a fun walk around the neighborhood or a personalized play date, you can trust that your pet is in safe, caring hands. Because when you're away, your pets deserve more than just a sitter—they deserve a companion. 🐾 I’m a teacher and currently on summer break. My schedule is wide open. I’m available as early or as late as your pets might need. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I’m dependable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a secure, stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I always follow your care instructions closely, keep you updated with messages or photos, and ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-exercised while you're away. You can trust that I’ll treat your home and your furry friend with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: While I was in high school I helped with the guide dog program. I would raise puppy’s for guide dogs for the blind until they would go to training. Training while in my possession would consist of basic commands such as sit, stay and lie down. I work from home so I can always here during the day and tend to stay home on the weekends as well so your pets would never be left alone! I have a fenced in backyard with a brick wall. I have 1 senior dog who thinks she is still a puppy and loves to play with other dogs!

“Charis is wonderful! Any stress I had about leaving my animal was quickly alleviated. Charis took the best care of my little dog Frankie. She sent me pictures of Frankie during visits, and showed her lots of love. Charis keeps an open line of communication during check-ins. Would love to have her as my Rover in the future, and Frankie agrees!”


“Patricia was so awesome! Very conscientious! Cared about the well-being of my little kitty. Helper me figure out a little fumble we had with the key situation she was a God send. Very happy with the service.”



“Marlou went above and beyond my expectations. I just wish the app would let me tip her more than 30%. She came by more than I requested and took Abbey for daily walks. She also picked up my mail, put out my trash and picked up around the house. I am beyond thrilled with her service and would recommend her highly to anyone wishing to have someone care for their animal.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. Around the age of 12 I began pet sitting for families in my neighborhood. A few years ago I got my own puppy and potty trained/ fed/ walked/ bathed him. I am able to take care of dogs with special needs, I have given medication before, to include insulin shots! I’m currently in the military so I work M-F. I’m usually home by 5pm during the week and I have weekends off. I’d be available any time as long as it’s not during my work hours! There is a pet park thats a 5min walk from my apartment so I’d happily walk your dogs there to let them socialize if that’s what you’re looking for. There is also a courtyard at my apartment complex.

About: I provide specialized care for all dogs including bully breeds. You know, those hard to place high energy, breed/mutts that may not get along with others. I have a secure backyard, a dog door and real grass. Tired dogs are good dogs so we will play, play, play! I also provide specialized care for dogs with medical challenges, I like naps too:) I've been training animals and educating children for 35 years and offer private bookings though the prices vary from those listed. Whether private or shared, if you have more than one pup, all are welcome. Shared bookings are for friendly dogs only:) I am currently available to spend most of my day with your precious pups. As a former teacher and dog rescuer, I found it difficult to find dog sitters I could trust to devote their time and good consideration to my babies. When I left teaching I became the pet sitter I always wanted. I love them like they are my own, and spoil them like Grandma does;) My yard is fenced and secure. I have a dog door and grass to snoop. Maricopa Lake is close so we can walk, heat permitting.

I have three cats with very different personalities, and she takes the time to care for each of them with patience and love. It’s such a relief knowing I can leave town and trust that my cats are in good hands. Even my shyest cat, who usually hides from everyone, has completely warmed up to Laura, which speaks volumes about her gentle and kind approach. She always sends updates and photos, which brings me peace of mind while I’m away. I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable and compassionate. Laura truly treats my cats like they’re her own.”

Susan H.Star Sitter
“I have been so lucky to have Susan walking my dog for me for the past 5 years. My health issues made me seriously scale back my ability to take my wonderful, retired therapy dog for her daily exercise and sniffing of messages left by other creatures in our neighborhood. My dog is super excited to see Susan every time she comes over. They have built a wonderful relationship. Susan cares about all animals she comes across and they can tell. I highly recommend Susan to care for any animal, big or small. Highly recommend!”
