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.
“Maggie went above and beyond! My kitty Pudgy clearly loved spending time with her, and Maggie spent the time to get to understand her and how to trick her into taking her pills (hero!). I came home to a clean house and a happy kitty.”

“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!”

“Pam was great at conducting drop-ins for my cat. She was super communicative and sent a lot of pictures and updates! She really made me feel at ease while away from home. Thanks Pam!”

“Thank you for taking care of our 7 month old puppy. Lillian was wonderful and really gave me a peace of mind on caring for boxer puppy. We will absolutely reach out to her again.”

“Yay!! Another great 'kid care' by Albamaria! We always know that Duncan and Tessa are well taken care of. We look forward to the daily pictures and report. We already have Albamaria scheduled for our next trip. We highly recommend Albamaria!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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!”


“Josie has been the sweetest find since moving to Tucson! It means so much to find someone that I can trust to watch my dog while I’m at work. It really brings so much peace of mind! My dog can be a little nervous and shy, and Josie was always patient with her and continued to give me updates on how well Pig has warmed up to her! This to me shows how patient she is and how much she actually cares! I cannot recommend Josie enough for anyone in the Tucson area!”

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!

Sophia is amazing, her love for cats is very evident and I feel as if she genuinely cared for my cat's well-being. Sophia is very responsive to messages and willingly provides additional updates, I felt completely comfortable leaving my cat and my home in her care. Every visit Sophia took plenty of photos and included notes on behavior, water intake, eating habits, and litter box usage. My cat missed her so much after the visits ended, he even made biscuits on the sofa where they used to hang out together. I will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to any pet owner.

Patti doesn’t overlook any details and cares for your furry loved one as if it were hers. She is very thorough with each visit’s report and pet pictures. We are so lucky to have found Patti, and she’s the best pet sitter we’ve had, and we’ve had many over the years in various places we’ve lived.
