“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!”


“Cara was wonderful - booked on short notice, she made time to meet up ahead of the scheduled start. Cara was extremely flexible, did a wonderful job caring for our dog and cats, was there when she said she’d be and went above and beyond. She also provided great updates and photos for each trip. We would recommend her 10/10 times - thanks Cara!”


“Juliette is amazing! My puppy loves when she drops in to play. She is very mindful and observant about my puppy’s needs. I can tell she truly does have extensive experience with animals. I will and have rebooked her for my puppy!”


“Patty always does an amazing job with my medically complex geriatric cat, Garfield. He was recently diagnosed with diabetes a few months ago and we were relieved that Patty had extensive experience with insulin injections. Cannot recommend Patty enough!”


“Logan is amazing, and we always know our kitties will be as happy as they could be! We are so grateful to have found Logan and plan on continuing to book for all our future needs!”


“Ellery was so communicative while watching my cats. Thorough updates were given & the best pictures were taken while I was gone. I’m sure my cats didn’t even want me to come back! I’d hire Ellery over and over again!”


About: I have owned and loved dogs my entire life, and am now also a cat convert! I would be so excited to meet and help care for your pets while you're away, since I know they are a part of your family. Whether you want some walks for your pup, or a drop in visit for your animals while away, I am here to help. I have been a dog walker in New York and New Jersey for a few years, and am excited to rekindle that work here in Tucson. I am currently writing my dissertation, so I am home all day every day! That means a wide open schedule that can adjust to your needs. I want you to feel secure in trusting me with your pets. I love to take cute photos to share our fun adventures with you!

“Lauren did a perfect job accommodating my two cats' needs as well as my own, and she made me feel so comfortable despite my intense anxiety about leaving my 8mo. old kitten alone for the first time. I had some worries about making too many specific requests, but she reassured me and praised my attention to detail as being a good pet mom. I loved seeing her posts on Instagram of my cats interacting with her during her visits, and she sent detailed updates and great photos for each visit. My very shy and timid cat even felt comfortable to come out and walk around while Lauren was in my home, which was a huge surprise to me. Definitely book with Lauren if you want the best pet care! Thank you Lauren :)”


“Tiffany did an incredible job of taking care of my cat while I was away. She has excellent communication, and was a wonderful person to have as a cat sitter.”


“My kitties were happy to have me back home, and they were cared for and well taken care of while I was away. Thank you Kathryn, it was obvious to see how much you love animals. I am happy that I chose you.”


“Calyx takes such good care of my elderly fella. She gives him so much love, pays attention to what he needs, and showers him in treats and attention. He loves to see her and I am so grateful for her care!”


“Cerise is an amazing person ! My cat absolutely felt safe and absolutely loved her company. If you are looking for someone to look after your pets , don't look any further - Cerise is the best !”


“Our first time to have Alex keep an eye on our pup. She was all we could have asked for, caring, responsible and kind. We will be using again and good to know we have someone we can trust and count on.”


“Courtney was great. Very prompt with her responses and Paxton (my dog) looked to be having a great time in the numerous pictures she had sent on their walk. I would highly recommend her to anyone who does want to have to worry about what hands they are leaving their dog in!”


About: Both me and my boyfriend have grown up on farms and been surrounded by animals our entire lives. We were both on the veterinarian track until partly through undergrad so have hundreds of hours of experience in vet clinics, pet hospitals, and farms. We were raised with dogs, cats, cows, horses, etc. I am now a PhD student at UofA and my boyfriend is in IT. Since I am in school, we cannot financially afford to bring a pet into our lives currently. We would love to shower your beloved pet with all of our combined animal love! I have a very flexible schedule to be home as much as your pet requires and we both have extensive experience with all animals from youngsters to our beloved seniors. I am a PhD student, meaning my schedule is extremely flexible. I do not take very many classes and my research does not require specific hours. I am able to work from home or come home periodically throughout the day. We do not currently have any pets but live in an extremely dog friendly apartment, with a dog park within the complex right outside of our building. Our apartment is well suited for an animal of any needs. We are animal lovers to our core so will ensure your dog is well loved. We are avid hikers and walkers and would love to get your animal as much exercise as they like!

“Marikate was awesome! Extremely friendly and loved our kitty well. We had a change in travel plans and she was very flexible and helpful to make sure our pet was well taken care of. Will definitely use her again”

La Madera pet parents share their Rover experiences
logan has been a pleasure to work with. they’re responsive and accommodating towards me and my cat yuki ever since i left for my week long trip. i was so surprised to hear on day one yuki opened up so fast towards them because she’s always been shy towards new people. i highly recommend logan and plan on rebooking again soon myself !

Cara was absolutely wonderful with both my cat, Chubby, and my brother's dog, Arizona! She went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of, happy, and comfortable while we were away. Cara provided regular updates and adorable photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were in loving hands. Chubby can be a bit shy, but Cara did her absolute best to meet all his needs. Arizona had the best time plenty of walks and playtime. It’s clear Cara truly loves animals and treats them like her own. We will definitely be booking with Cara again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!

Sonya was such a blessing! I had such a wonderful experience with Sonya as our dog walker for Lilo and Odin while on a work trip! She took care of my pups for three days, providing walks throughout the day, feedings, plenty of love and pets, and even worked on some training. Her communication through the Rover app was fantastic, and I really appreciated the regular updates. It was clear how much Lilo and Odin adored her from how happy they were in the photos she uploaded. I would 100% book Sonya again, even if it's just for a "hello" walk because of how much my dogs loved her. Highly recommend!

My pups had an amazing time with Calyx's drop ins. Her rates are more than reasonable, she's absolutely reliable, communicates perfectly, arrives on time, and definitely takes care of their business both inside and outside. Her patience and knowledge caring for my shy pup was stellar. Her profile and reviews are spot on, I'd rebook her anytime for my fur babies in my absence. We thank you again for an awesome job done!

Olivia is the best! She is always flexible, communicative, and reliable. Olivia stayed longer than planned on a drop-in since my pup hadn’t seen her in a while and needed more time to warm up. I always know she’ll take the best care of her and is attentive to her needs!
