“Rachel did an amazing job watching our dog over a long weekend vacation. She was super quick to communicate with, left amazingly detailed reports after every visit, was super punctual and took many photos. We felt very comfortable having her watch our dog and will definitely be rebooking her in the future. Amazing sitter!”


“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!”


“Sarah was amazing, we're so glad we had someone like her to check in on our beloved kitty while we were away! She even went above and beyond when she cleaned up the mess from Javelinas spreading our trash around our garage. We're so appreciative of her willingness to do that as disgusting as is probably was. We would definitely book Sarah in the future and would recommend her to anyone! Thank you Sarah!!!!”


“Pat was the perfect sitter for our three kitties! She asked great questions to make sure she knew exactly what she needed to know to care for our cats. She was super communicative with us, was on time for drop ins and even went out of her way to make our cats a little toy. We look forward to hiring Pat again in the future!”


“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 is always our first choice for our medically complex geriatric cat. She is always so patient with him, especially when he is in one of his picky moods. We cannot recommend her enough!”


“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!”


“I am so happy I picked Logan as my sitter. They not only made sure my dog was comfortable but they kept open communication of any changes in routine. I definitely recommend them for future sittings but also to folks that are looking for a sitter.”


“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 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!”


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!

“One of my rats unfortunately passed while I was away but Alex was quick to inform me and handled everything as I asked. Despite the tragedy, my remaining two rats and cat were doing well when I returned, and I received thorough reports and pictures throughout my trip that made me feel assured that all of my pets are being well cared for. Will definitely have Alex take care of my pets again!”


About: I spent a year working in a nature center with all kinds of animals, including a bird rehab with eagles and owls! I have taken care of several foster cats, including a very special rescue who needed a lot of medical attention. I am often trusted to cat and dog sit for my friends and family. I move around a lot so it's been hard to have my own permanent animal, so I just spend as much time as I can with the animals around me! My work schedule is part time and flexible so I have plenty of time and energy to take care of your pets and do house sitting. I have a good sized two bedroom house so there is plenty of space for a pet to explore. There are no other pets in the house, so there is no concern about if unknown animals will get along with each other or not. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood so long walks are very doable. I have my own car in good condition and a great driving record if pets need to be taken anywhere (scheduled or emergency). I also have extensive babysitting experience so I'm used to being in other people's homes and respecting their space.

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!

About: I’ve been house/dog sitting for family and friends for over 8 years. I love animals and appreciate the time I get to spend with each one. I take the opportunity seriously and treat all animals as if my own. I work remotely all day, so I can provide support and care all day. I don’t mind scheduling around the pet’s normal schedule. I like to keep the animals as close to their routine as possible. I work remotely all day, so I can provide support and care all day. I don’t mind scheduling around the pet’s normal schedule.

About: Dog guests love our secured yards and comfy dog beds! We have one indoor/outdoor (very friendly but low energy) dog and an indoor cat and I'm home with pets all day. Large home with grassy front yard and large backyard. Pool, for dogs who like swimming. Dogs get to come inside and outside as they like, and I always supervise them. Our dog loves visitors, and our cat tolerates them. If your dog likes walks, we do one lengthy walk (if it's not too hot) every evening. If your dog likes to play, we have a yard full of toys and are happy to throw things and play tug-of-war. Want frequent updates? No problem. I'll take eleven million pictures of your dog being cute. Care is tailored to your and your pet's preference. We're used to special dietary needs and administering medications. I have stairs to our bed for little and older dogs and they're welcome on all the furniture. If your dog is into binging shows, I am agreeable as long as they do not have terrible taste. We love our pets and we like knowing they're happy when we're away, too! For housesitting, I'll be there as much as you like. You will come home to your house exactly as you left it, with happy pets. Pet care is my only job. Your pets will always have my full attention- I'm always available to them for attention, playing, walks, and snuggling. At this time, we are not offering pet sitting services in our home. We recently adopted a stray cat, and he's still very skittish with new people and animals.

“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”


“Couldn’t have chosen a better person to watch my fur baby. She was very kind and caring and all around treated him like he was her own. Would definitely recommend her and choose her to watch my boy Butters again. Thank you 10/10”

She also kept him on his feeding schedule which was helpful for when I came back. She sent me lot of picture updates and it was clear that he was being well taken care of.

She went on walks, had lots of playtime in their large yard with her new bestie, Gia, and received lots of love. We were delighted to get the daily updates and pictures Jackie sent us. Meimei highly recommends them! And so do we!”
