Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Mountain First Avenue, Tucson, AZ

“Sarah was amazing at taking care of my 3 babies last minute. My dogs loved her and i felt at ease leaving them in good hands. I have dogs from different ages and she knew how to handle them with care. I definitely recommend her as a sitter for your furry friends! Thank you Sarah, we appreciate your help?”

“Apache and Sugar Plum are home kitties and don't board well so Adrian dropped in to check on them and care for them while I was traveling. I'm so appreciative they can stay in their environment and get the care they need while I'm gone!”

“Lilian did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies. She administered medications, followed all of our detailed and sometimes complicated instructions, and made sure each pet’s individual needs were met. We really appreciated the regular photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It’s not easy to care for pets with different special needs, but Lilian handled everything with care and attention. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”

About: Growing up in rural Delaware, we always had at least one family dog who we took on long off-leash walks and played fetch and tag with in our big backyard. Having so much space allowed for the opportunity to connect, bond with, and read our dogs while they were having tons of fun and just being themselves. About my dogs: In 2013, I adopted Minnie. For twelve years, she has been my hiking partner, shot gun rider, and my little spoon. In 2022, I found Olive on the side of the road in west Tucson as a victim of abuse and neglect. Although she has made leaps and bounds in her recovery, she can still be hesitant with strangers. But once her trust is earned, she is a total sweetheart (see photos). I genuinely enjoy helping pet parents feel safe and reassured while their pets are in my care. I’ll keep you updated with clear communication and daily photos and videos so you’re always in the loop. I understand that your pet has their own unique personality, and I look forward to learning about them and making sure the have a safe, enjoyable time until their humans return home 🤍🐾 I work another job which requires me to be out of town Tues-Thurs from March-November 2026. During this time I am able to care for pets Friday-Monday. From Dec 12, 2025-March 3, 2026, I have an open schedule for pet care. During our meet and greet, I will take notes on your pets daily routine and household things, then mirror that to the best of my ability, ensuring lots of pets, treats, walks and play time!

“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”

“Nellie got along well with my cat right off the bat! She did a great job taking care of her while I was gone, making sure that she was both well fed and happy!”

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.

About: I've been caring for friend's and neighbor's pets since I was a teen, and I would love to come give your pets some affection and exercise while you're busy or away! I've lived with dogs with all kinds of personalities, have fostered dogs and cats for PACC, and have experience working with reactive, anxious, and high-needs dogs. I adopted my (almost 3yo) dog as a puppy and have been learning a lot about puppy training too! I practice positive reinforcement training and I'm happy to turn our walks and play time into opportunities to work on your pup's training. I'm available to come play with your dog, take them for walks, and make sure they get lots of loving attention! I currently work as a field botanist and my schedule is variable throughout the year. When I’m in town I can be available most times of day with advance notice. I try to keep my calendar updated a month or two in advance with my availability. I'm happy to follow any requests, rules, or special needs you have for your pet. I find treats to be a great way to befriend most pups- unless you have particular treats for your dog, I'll typically have treats to share! If your dog takes some time to warm up to strangers, or has trouble walking in places where they may interact with other dogs, I am more than happy to work through their needs with you and the pup.

About: Recently laid off from the corporate world & diving back in to what brings me joy ✨ I have over two decades of experience caring for cats & dogs. In my youth, I quickly passed on babysitting to become the neighborhood pet sitter 🦮 I’ve provided care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My calendar is a blank slate for the time being, meaning I am incredibly flexible to fit your pet’s needs. Short notice requests can generally be accommodated :) I’ll always ensure that we thoroughly discuss the ins and outs of your home and pet’s needs beforehand. My priority is ensuring a smooth and safe experience. I include frequent check-ins and photo updates, making sure the line of communication remains open.

“Great experience with Cara for a short out of Towner; she communicates well, updated us, helped us keep our plants alive in the blazing heat, was reliable and took great care of our senior pups! Thank you!!!”

“Taylor did a great job checking in on our sweet Snawfus. I appreciated her timely communication, availability & kindness. I loved getting some picture updates as well. We will definitely use her services again.”

“I can’t say enough about how great this experience was. Rachel is such a wonderful dog care person! I was nervous using rover for the first time but Rachel promptly set up a meet and greet and tolerated me flooding her with care instructions for our beloved Herbie! She showed up early for each visit and spent extra time with Herbie after, going above and beyond, and communicating how well things were going with lots of pictures. I will definitely try to book Rachel if we need a sitter. Outstanding!”
