“Our pets love Sarah!! ❤️ She takes care of our babies with as much love as we do. I'm not worried to go out of town knowing she is taking care of our three pets.”
“This was the second time Heidi took care of our kitties! Appreciated her thorough daily updates and pics. Thrilled and surprised that Violet warmed up so quickly! Heidi truly has the magic touch”

“Isabella did a great job checking in on our cat. She was timely and always provided photos. She has great common sense and was quick to address an unforeseen situation after getting locked out of the house.”

“Oliver was calm and organized which made all the difference during Sterm's last few days. Really appreciated his communicative style on top of being available short notice! Olive listened and followwd up by asking good questions to ensure Sterm received the best possible care. I highly recommend Oliver and would book again!”
About: Hello, I’m Erica—a dedicated Tucson pet caregiver with 20 years of loving experience. Whether your furry friend enjoys cozy snuggles at home or thrilling outdoor adventures, I adapt to what makes each pet happiest. As pet parents often note, I’m “available on short notice,” respond quickly, and always send heartfelt daily messages with photos. My goal is to ensure both pets and their humans feel relaxed and supported. From neighborhood strolls and hiking trails to comfortable downtime with belly rubs—your pup’s comfort and happiness are my priority. I’d love to meet your companion and craft a stay full of joy, care, and peace of mind. Boarding is open all week long, so your pet always has a safe, loving place to stay. I also offer weekend drop-ins for potty breaks, meals, or playtime. While I work weekdays 8–5, I do my best to accommodate special requests—just message me and we’ll work it out! I have a small, fenced backyard for your pet to explore and one large dog and a cat to keep your pet company. I can easily crate your dog if needed as well.
“Laurie was a wonderful choice while I was on vacation. I had no worries as well as my dog, Chloe was clearly happy with her while I was away! I would gladly do business with you again thank you very much!”

“Rachel was amazing with my girl, Charlie, who can be quite stubborn and takes a while to warm up to new people. She was so patient and understanding, and Charlie ended up being so comfortable with her! Rachel sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I can't thank her enough for showing Charlie so much love and care. Highly recommend Rachel if you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond!”

“El was so sweet and a wonderful sitter for my kitty over the weekend. Excellent communication and lots of photos in the daily updates. I came back to a very tidy apartment and happy cat. I would definitely book her again!”

“Sheila took wonderful care of my cat, Aleja!!! She played with her, visited with her, aside from just feeding her and cleaning her litter box while I was away. I would definitely book Sheila to take care of Aleja again.”
“This was our first Rover experience and we were nervous about the length of our trip, but Logan had solid ratings, repeat clients and lots of photos with the pets he watched so we were pretty at ease working with her. He was very responsive, posted lots of pictures and updates, and brought up any issue that encountered at the house. We would definitely work with him again for our next trip.”

About: I own my own cat sanctuary, I feed an army of stray cats in my backyard. I have fostered newborn kittens. I was also a dog bather for a little over a year. I have full flexibility and availability in my schedule, I am currently unemployed looking to make this my full time job. I can come over at any time of the day. In a clients house I will feed the animal and let them go outside/walk them. Make sure your pet didn’t make any accidents in the house and clean up any mess that is made. I will also make sure your cuddly friend gets lots of attention and love.

“Thanks Leticia for taking such great care of my kitties and staying in contact my whole trip. Sent great daily photos and kept me up to speed on how the kitties were behaving. I will for sure look to Leticia first for my next trip!”

About: I have experience taking care of boarding dogs and cats at an animal hospital. I worked for them for a little over a year and have gotten lots of experience with dogs and cats. I used to raise puppies and train them how to sit and have manners for about two years with my parent. I have dog sitting experience and house sitting experience. I am currently going to school at the UofA full time during the weekdays (my class schedule is listed below keep reading) and would be available most days to come and play with the animals for 30 minutes to an hour and overnight sitting. And on weekends I would be free to play with and walk the animals as needed. Class schedule: Mon 9-10am Tue 9:30-3pm Wed 9-2pm Thur 9:30-3pm Fri 9-10am I have cared for many animals, some in crates if necessary but in a fenced yard so there is no escaping. In my home they have obedience and training to a degree, no accidents in the house and if so I would clean them.
“Jennifer was communicative and asked questions about any details or concerns. She was prompt and took great care of my boy Fred. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

El Rio Acres pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lillian is the best dog carer ever. She is kind, organized, punctual, has a great sense of humor. Most important though, she has incredibly deep expertise and experience with dogs. She understands them as someone who's trained and shown, and I have taken great comfort in knowing that Mumford is in truly expert hands. Can't recommend her highly enough.

I was nervous about leaving my cat for longer than I ever had previously, but Hannah made it so much easier. She sent me updates and cute pics (I think she takes better pics of my cat than I do!) that calmed my nervousness. Of course my baby was happy to see me when I got back but I could tell she hadn’t been too stressed or lonely while I’d been gone. She’d gotten plenty of pets and love. So, Hannah is much appreciated!

Seth did a great job with our elderly dog and kept in communication with us on her eating and bathroom habits. Consistent posts on her activity levels and how well she did on walks. Also was sensitive to changes in the weather and how it could impact her on a walk. Would highly recommend.

Amelia is the best choice for your pups. She is diligent and so sweet with my dog. It’s clear how much she cares and enjoys spending time with her. Amelia goes above and beyond to help me while we are crate training and giving meds. Will definitely use her again!

Oliver was calm and organized which made all the difference during Sterm's last few days. Really appreciated his communicative style on top of being available short notice! Olive listened and followwd up by asking good questions to ensure Sterm received the best possible care. I highly recommend Oliver and would book again!
