Keith Alstrin – your pet's new best friend while you're away.
Your pets like being kept in the familiarity and comfort of their own home while you're away. Having your pet at home is far safer physically and emotionally than taking them to a kennel.
Keith grew up in Paradise Valley and attended Kiva Elementary and Saguaro High. He started Alstrin Photography over 25 years ago and has lived in Arcadia his entire life. Keith loves Pugs and has fostered and found homes for many pugs in AZ.
Here's what you get when you have Keith stay while you're away:
- Keith stays at your home 24/7. He doesn't walk other dogs or do other house sitting. He only leaves for a few hours at a time when necessary.
- Keith will be the only person staying in your home. He will never allow anyone else in your home while you're away.
- Your home is safe and secure. No one will know you're away. Lights are on at night, plants are watered, mail and deliveries are brought in.
- Keith believes in positive reinforcement and will never negatively discipline your dog. He'll make sure your pets get lots of playtime every day.
- There's no cleaning up after Keith. You won't even know he's been there. Nothing is worse than coming home from a vacation and having to clean up after a house sitter.
- He will arrive and leave at agreed-upon, prearranged times.
- You'll get regular updates and great photos of your pets.
- You get a 100% guarantee of satisfaction.
“When your children are teenagers, it's important to have a dog so that someone in the house is happy to see you.”

What Keith's Clients Say About Him
Keith did an excellent job keeping our cat fed, entertained and happy while we were out of state for the week. Even going above and beyond when errant weather conditions extended our time away from home by a few days. Fantastic service.
Charlotte Strawn & Griffon Bell
We feel so lucky to have met Keith! In him we've found a peaceful person whom our dogs trusted instantly. He is so thoughtful, respectful, and genuinely caring of our home and our pets. We consider him a family friend and trust him completely.
Lily & Bud Norman
You will find no one better to watch your pets as if they were their own. He sends us pics and updates of our fur baby to help us with separation anxiety. Keith goes above and beyond when it comes to the care and love of your pet. You will not be disappointed.
Kathy Fox
Keith takes phenomenal care of our dog! He clearly loves the animals he watches, prioritizing their physical and emotional well-being.
He's also great at providing updates, which is helpful when you fret about your animal while traveling (like I do).
There's no one I'd trust more to take care of Dusty, including myself!
Kyle Decker
When it comes to asking anyone to look after our pets, there is no hesitation.
Keith is not only dependable and meticulous, he's thoughtful and above all… caring.
Neil Fox
Our Frenchie has had some behavioral issues on and off but Keith's patience and positive demeanor really make a difference in his behavior. He loves when Keith comes to see him!
I'm truly so appreciative of how much care Keith puts into his dog-sitting and I would recommend him to anyone, especially nervous owners who need someone they know will take plenty of safety measures and put in the time to make their pets comfortable.
Emily Strawn
Keith did an amazing job watching our home and pets! We have been out of town for a week at times, and it was wonderful to come home to everything looking as clean as or even cleaner than we left it!
Our three dogs, three cats, lizard, and snake were all very well taken care of, and that's not a simple feat!
Keith even kept the pool clean while were gone and made sure our plants stayed alive.
He was also great at sending updates and pictures of the pets looking cute and happy!
It's such a relief to be able to go away on vacation and truly relax because we know our home and fur babies will be cared for. We highly recommend Keith for your home and pet-sitting needs!
Brittany Holtzman & Ellen Saltsman
Knowing that our dogs and home are in Keith's capable care, we can actually relax while we're traveling. And much more comforting knowing that the dogs are in their own space. What a relief!
David McCoy
Keith stayed at our house while we were out of town for a few days. Having him there kept the house looking occupied which gave us peace of mind. He also took care of the plants so when we came home, everything was as we left it. We appreciate it!
Andrea & Tom Jarvi
Keith is a dependable dog sitter who can follow instructions and use common sense. It's also apparent that he's a dog-lover as my Labrador didn't want him to leave after I returned home. Trusted and recommended.
Ron Kolodzie
I'm picky with dog-sitters, and Keith is my first choice because not only is he kind and perceptive with my dog, he can be trusted with my home, which he always leaves better than he found it! Keith travels across the state to stay with my dog – that's how highly I think of him.
Carol Jackson
The house/pet sitting service provided by Keith is a gift! Our dogs are so attached to him! He is part of the family. We know our furry family members are in good care.
And what a relief to know our house and canine family are in good hands. We can actually relax while we travel. Thank you!
Nan McCoy
I took my dog Cooper to the kennel when I went to Hawaii for my birthday.
When I came home Cooper couldn't bark because his voice was so hoarse from barking. Unfortunately, he also had kennel cough. I felt horrible.
I'm so glad I found Keith and I don't have to worry about that ever happening again.
Doug Crouch
Keith is the perfect person to call when we have to leave town. Between our four high maintenance dogs, cat, and 6 chickens we needed someone who could spend time caring for them and not just show up to feed them. Keith did that and more! They all became friends and we are lucky to have someone like him to watch our property when we travel and the piece of mind that comes with it.
Caleb & Angela Cooke
We enjoyed our trip this past week and came home to two happy healthy dogs! They were glad to have us home, but we felt very comfortable knowing that they were comfortable and cared for by Keith Alstrin of Arcadia Pet Care. He is very knowledgeable and aware of Pet behavior. He cared for pets and respected our home. We will definitely be using him again for future trips, and would recommend him for anyone in search of a pet sitter.
