About: Bonafide Animal Lover! I grew up on a farm caring for many different animals & have always had either cats and/or dogs in my adult life. Most recent, I cared for our two adult male shepherds in all aspects - training, feeding, walking, nurturing and our two adult cats - training, feeding, activity and nurturing. My pets are part of my family & I will provide the same level of care to your pets as well! (To avoid any confusion, my full name is “Sylvia Annette” - I usually go by my middle name “Annette” but will respond to either here. I am a semi-retired remote bookkeeper and empty nester therefore I am home most of the time and have plenty of time to do drop in visits, walking, house sitting or boarding. My caution level for keeping my pets safe and well cared for is very high. They are part of my family. I focus on their daily feeding schedule, ensure the catbox is kept clean daily, play with them (laser pointer and feather toy) for their exercise, and provide lots of love and cuddles too. When I have our shepherds, I walk them daily and play fetch and tug of war with a ball or rope.
About: I have 11 yrs of experience taking care of my own dogs and know that they are much more than pets, they're family! So I understand the importance of leaving them in the hands of not just anyone, but someone who's trustworthy, responsible, reliable and caring. Not only do I have these attributes but I pay attention to detail and will meet your furry friend where they're at. If they're shy and need time to warm up and feel safe, I can do that. If they're ready to play and want lots of petting and belly rubs, I can do that too! My priorities will always be safety, making sure that I attend to their needs and your specifications! I have a flexible work schedule and love to stay busy. Playing with or taking care of animals is my ideal way to spend my extra time! I'm able to play with, feed, walk and care for your dog/cat in the way that works best for them! I'm detail oriented and will be sure to provide the care that they need.
“Ander was communicative before and after the visit. There was a mishap with the Rover app and recording photos/the Rover card but Ander explained this was his first time doing a walk vs boarding. I would ask Ander to walk my dog in the future!”
“Ariel came by to walk my big boy, Wilbur (~100 lb Presa Canario). She was great! Came by to meet him before and took down lots of notes. He felt comfortable around her and I didn’t have a single concern after the trial visit! Her rates are unmatched and she provides quality care. 10/10 recommend!”
About: Father to two boys and two dogs looking to pick up extra money and make ends meet. Lifelong dog rescuer and animal lover, current U of A student and future K-12 art educator. Currently attending U of A Mon-Thursday. I have limited availability during gaps between my classes. On Friday I have much more availability, as I am not attending classes that day. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, as well as issuing controlled medication at scheduled intervals. I personally don’t give my dogs table scraps, because I know how sensitive their digestive systems can be. I have prepared raw diet meals in the past for pets. An exercised dog is a happy dog!
About: I’ve taken care of many animals through out my life, from cats and dogs, to raising animals on a farm. I enjoy being around animals and look forward to meeting yours! Im not currently working and I am available anytime to watch your fur babies. Morning, afternoon and evenings. Over night stays as well if needed. Communication is a priority and I will provide frequent updates with photos/videos. This has allowed my clients to see first hand how safe, comfortable, and secure their pets feel in my care. My clients often express their peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, understood, and well cared for while away
“Sheila was wonderful! She helped walk two of our dogs while I was away and was great to work with. It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were getting out and cared for. I would absolutely recommend her.”
About: I can provide an energizing walk or run with your lovable pet, as much as I can spend a quiet, relaxing night in ensuring the comfortability and safety of your pet. I can accommodate baths, minimal grooming and brushing, medication and dietary needs. I have taken care of puppies less than a year old, senior dogs who need oral medication and diapers, and dogs like who are mid life adults who just want exercise and fun. I have cared for dogs from 5 lbs up to 50 lbs, and have taken care of new born kittens to adult cats. I’m currently a full time graduate student at the University of Illinois Chicago with free time outside of school. I enjoy pet care outside of classes. I abide by house rules when caring for pets inside the owner’s home or apartment. Having my own dog, I understand their safety inside and outside is important.
“We are so pleased with Jennifer’s work ethic and communication. There were a few glitches on our side, she gladly worked with us. We will definitely use her again for our dog, and our family dogs.”
About: I grew up with Dobermans and hunting dogs and owned a pet grooming, boarding and pet sitting agency along with raising my own animals including guinea pigs and cats. I work full time but have plenty of time for drop ins or walks in the mornings and evenings. I also am free all of Saturday and Sunday. I can also house sit on weekends if needed. I have experience with crate training, letting animals out and getting them back in and also walking with all types of leads. I am capable just spending time with your pet and playing with them and their favorite toy or game.
About: 🐾 Hi! I’m Elizabeth, an experienced at-home dog sitter with 25+ years of caring for dogs. We’re located just 10 minutes from downtown Tucson (Marana area near Cortaro & I-10), in a quiet neighborhood on a peaceful cul-de-sac — no busy streets or loud noise. We’re open 365 days a year, including holidays and last-minute bookings. Whether it’s just one night or 100 (I’ve actually had a dog guest stay that long!), your dog will be treated like family every step of the way. After 11+ years on Rover, many of my clients return again and again. ⸻ 🐶 What Makes our Care Special: • Dogs lounge on soft couches with blankets and pillows. • Daily updates and photos. • Secure backyard with a covered porch and a 10x10 Astroturf sun patch for lounging. • 6-foot fences and a deadbolt gate on the front porch for extra safety. • Someone is almost always home (rarely gone more than an hour). • Four trained and experienced adults in the home = lots of attention, playtime, and professional care. • Extensive experience with medical needs, including medication administration and injections. ⸻ 🐕🐕🐕🌟 A Few Important Notes: 🐕🐕🐕 • I only host a few dogs at a time—usually 3-4, occasionally up to 6 during peak holidays—to ensure personalized care. 🐕🐕🐕 MEET-AND-GREETS 🐕🐕🐕 For the comfort and routine of the dogs already in my care, I do not schedule separate in-person meet-and-greets. I’m happy to offer a virtual meet-and-greet beforehand though. On the day of the booking clients are able to tour the home and yard during drop-off. We can go over feeding, medication and playtime/sleep routines then as well. • Dogs must be house-trained (unless under 12 months). • Even if my calendar shows unavailable, feel free to reach out — I may still have space for the right fit! ⸻ ✨ With 600+ five-star reviews, a lot of my guests become repeat clients. Once you’re one of them, you’ll receive first-priority booking — and your pup will feel right at home. I If you think your dog might be a great fit, I’d love to hear from you! – Elizabeth 🐶💛 Dogs are part of our daily life here. With someone always home, they enjoy constant care, indoor or outdoor play (weather permitting), comfort, attention, and plenty of companionship. Dogs here are always safe, loved, and never alone. They get lots of attention, playtime, and a low-stress calm, homey space to relax in. We have bowls of water out at all times.
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have been pet sitting since my early teens through Facebook inquiries and I previously had been pet sitting through Wag. (I still pet sit through Wag, but I wanted to give Rover a chance!) I have dogs and cats of my own, so I understand that every animal has different needs and different boundaries. I believe in being respectful, attentive and patient as I want all animals to be comfortable while I’m in their presence. I will never push an interaction or push a pet beyond what they are comfortable with. My goal was very simple! I just wanna make sure that they feel safe and happy even while their owner is away. I’m currently going to school while working full time at at hospital while ALSO saving for my wedding so naturally that makes my budget very tight. so, Rover is a way to earn extra income while doing something I geniunely love. Being a young adult working toward big dreams can be challenging, so I am grateful for the opportunity to turn my love for animals into something meaningful. I typically work night shifts Sunday-Tuesday so outside of that, I have lots of free time. during the nights that I work, I would of course communicate to the pet parent my limited hours in the evening. But outside those days, I am completely free and I am able to do as many check ins as the pet parent needs. I ensure I read any instructions the pet parent leaves for me. My main goal is to ensure the pet is as comfortable as possible and of course the person to know that best, is the pet parent! I would hate to stray from any schedule a pet has as it’s already stressful enough when a parent is gone. I am really big on communication so if the pet parent wants me to stay in the home the whole time during the visit, or to only have check ins, I will make sure that is communicated.
About: I absolutely love animals and used to voluneer at a local animal shelter before moving to Arizona. I've grown up with dogs and currently have 3 loving (and talkative) cats! I have cared for neighbors, friends, and familys pets for years and love getting to know their unique and special quirks and personalities ❤️ I promise to take exceptional care of you pet and look forward to working with you 😊 I currently work part-time overnights in a hospital everyother week. This unique work schedules allow me to focus on giving your pet the quality care and enrichment they deserve! Caring for pets in the comfort of their home allows them to relax, enjoy their favorite toys, lounging spots, and potty breaks and walks that they are used to all while their favorite person is away. I strive to meet your pets needs, fit their schedule, and maintain their routine. ❤️
About: I've been walking, training, and caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes for over 10 years. I currently work as a zookeeper full-time. Animals are my passion and I have very high standards of care for every animal I am responsible for. I have experience with (and am actively continuing my education on) Cooperative Care and basic obedience training using positive reinforcement. I have a senior dog of my own and have had special needs dogs in the past, so I am happy to work with dogs that need a little extra care. My main availability is Tuesday-Thursday, but I can occasionally accommodate other days. Feel free to reach out and we can see what we can work out! How I care for pets is fully tailored to my client's needs. I prefer to have a meet and greet with new clients and their pets to get to know you both and go over any important details of their care. I do not feed any treats or food that are not approved ahead of time. I'm educated on signs of fatigue in dogs and am careful to not overwork the dogs in my care (especially in this summer heat).

Cambria was an excellent dog walker. She stepped in during a time when we were dealing with an illness and unable to give our dog the attention he needed. We felt completely comfortable with her caring for our little guy, and we would gladly hire her again in the future.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cortaro. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
