About: Lifelong Pet Lover with 20+ Years of Experience You Can Count On Hi! I’m Allison—an experienced and compassionate pet and house sitter with over two decades of trusted care. Whether it’s cuddling with a senior cat, administering insulin to a diabetic dog, or keeping your home safe and tidy while you're away, I’m here to make your pets feel comfortable and loved in your absence. With 10+ years of veterinary technician care experience, I’m confident giving medications (oral and injectable, including fluids and insulin) and caring for pets with special medical needs. I’ve worked with animals of all shapes and sizes—from playful puppies and curious kittens to large birds, farm animals, and everything in between. I’ve even helped raise over 20 puppies with basic obedience and kennel training. I’m happy to assist with light home care as well—like bringing in the mail, watering plants, or checking your pool. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, and I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Let’s connect and see how I can help your pets stay safe, happy, and relaxed while you’re gone! Currently, I work for the University of Arizona's College of Veterinary Medicine. I do travel some for work, but will routinely check to make sure both schedules work with each other. I make time to let dogs out for potty breaks or to give medication or feed. I do my best to follow the directions left by the client. Every pet/home does have its own routine and how pets "vibe" with me compared to their owners or people they are used to. I also will let clients know ASAP if something has happened or if there is an issue that perhaps can't wait until they return home.
About: My husband & I are empty nesters who can’t bear the loss of another fur baby. We have been around animals our whole life. We lost out little tortie kitty approximately 5 years ago. We have taken care of friends pups since then for sometimes up to 5 weeks. We both are retired so availability is wide open & want to care for your pet which would make our hearts happy My husband & I are both retired so availability is open & ready to care for your furry family member. We look forward to meeting you Our back, side & front yards are fenced but any outside potty breaks; on or off leash, would ALWAYS be supervised with my full attention. I will accommodate whatever needs your pet may have. I am a retired CMA so I could manage any medical needs your pet may have.
“Eleanor was a fantastic babysitter for my golden retriever. She spent extra time getting to know my dog and making sure s my baby was not anxious during my absence. She went above and beyond the call of duty.”

“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 have watched pets for friends, family, and others off and on for about 4 years. I have helped raise 2 puppies with my family and have aided in end of life care for 2 family dogs that passed away from old age. I have one dog right now, so I am familiar with the ins and outs of having a pet and what that entails. I also did a brief stint at a doggy daycare, so i am comfortable with dog handling, feeding, routines, cleaning up and anything else needed. I recently got let go from my job as a seasonal associate due to the company not having room for anymore employees, so I would love something to fill my time! I love animals and getting to know them and their parent/s. I have a dog of my own that I help take care of with my mom and brother. I’m excited to make new furry friends I will be taking care of your pet the same way I would mine! Feed and walk on whatever schedule is best and play as much as they would like. I also don’t yell at my dog, meaning I don’t raise my voice if she does something wrong, I don’t feel like that’s helpful or positive, so no raising voices to other pups either. I am eager to learn anything I need to in order to properly take care of your furry family!
“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.”
About: I have had dog and cats of my own from childhood to adult. I grew up with cats and continue to care and love our friends kitties. Unfortunately a family member is allergic so I don't get to have them in my home but love to play with them in yours. We have had Australian Shepperd mixes, cattle dogs, mutts, and pugs. When our old pugs died, we decided to just foster or pet sit. We fostered pugs and pug mixes for 3 years and continue to volunteer our time with the rescue organization. We pet sit for friends and house and pet sit through another service. I love to cuddle and play with all the furr-babies. A loved, exercised dog or cat, is a happy pet. I also have no problem with older animals who need medication or shots. I have done all of this and am comfortable with minor animal care. Can't wait to care for your babies. I am retired but do volunteer and attend other activities during the day and the evening. Some of this is flexible to meet your needs. I can stay in your home or drop by for feeding and walks, whatever fits your needs. You can book either a drop in or an overnight stay. I would keep your dogs and cats in your own home. Dogs and cats are typically more comfortable and behaved in their own surroundings. I would follow any safety rules you have established for your pets. I can keep small to medium potty, and preferably crate-trained, dogs in my home.
“Can’t recommend Rachael enough! Zuko always comes back well-exercised and happy after each walk with Rachael. I also love that she provides updates and photos, which made me feel reassured while I’m away. I just really appreciate the care she provides to Zuko! I will definitely be booking Rachael again in the future.”

“Jill is fantastic! She is on time pays attention and does great with our dog Jack. She leaves nice Rover Cards with the best pictures! Would definitely recommend Jill for midday walks for your furbabies!”

About: Lifelong owner of Aussies and Goldens with experience sitting Labs, Collies, and Shih Tzus. Currently dog-free and eager for a "dog fix" through reliable care! Working from home, I offer flexible morning, midday, or evening visits. Because I have a remote schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. Since I don't currently have a dog of my own, these visits provide my much-needed 'dog fix' and serve as the perfect reason to step away from my desk and get active. Whether it's a brisk morning walk to start the day, a midday potty break, or evening companionship, I have the time and dedication to prioritize your pet's routine. My schedule allows me to be consistent and reliable, ensuring your pup gets the attention they deserve exactly when they need it.
Oro Valley dog parents share their Rover experiences
Griselda is great! Hadn’t used her for several years because I had no need for a pet sitter. I was so glad she was still on Rover. I rescued a dog in the time since she’d helped me out, so she took care of both the cat and the dog this time. I’d use her again for sure.
