House Sitting Picture Rocks

“She arrived on time, did everything we asked. She sent great pictures and went on may walks and spent time outside with him. Our dog loved her and we would definitely have her house sit again!!”

“Mary was AMAZING with our three dogs while we were away at Disneyland! Having three dogs with different personalities and routines can be a lot, but she handled all of them beautifully. We came home to three happy, relaxed pups and a house exactly as we left it—which is pretty much the highest compliment I can give a pet sitter. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about our dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her hands, and being able to enjoy our trip without worrying about what was happening at home was priceless. We will 100% be asking Mary to watch our little zoo again. Highly recommend her—although selfishly, I’d also like everyone to leave some availability for us. 😂❤️🐾”

“Kaitlin was fantastic and on time. I will be using her services two more times in the up coming week and my pup Ava and I are blessed to have found her on such a short notice. She provided pictures and took Ava down to the beach with our place we are staying at having direct beach access. Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you again in a few days.”

About: 🐾 Experienced, Reliable Pet Sitter | 16+ Arizona Sits & Repeat Clients Hi, I’m Zandra! I’m a calm, dependable, and genuinely animal-loving pet sitter with 9+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, reptiles, and other pets for friends, family and acquaintances. Over the past year, I’ve completed 14+ pet sits throughout Arizona, including Flagstaff, Phoenix, and Tucson, and I’ve been fortunate enough to have several families ask me to come back and care for their pets again. Building that kind of trust with both pets and their people is one of my favorite parts of what I do. I work remotely, so I’m able to spend a lot of time at home with the pets in my care. I love having animals as my companions throughout the day, whether that means a morning walk, playtime between work, a midday potty break, or simply having a furry friend curled up nearby while I work. I’m naturally calm and patient, and I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and routine. Some pets want constant attention and adventure, while others are happiest with a quiet house, a predictable schedule, and someone nearby. I’m happy to meet them where they are. My long-term goal is to make pet sitting my full-time career, continuing to build relationships with wonderful families and expanding my experience to eventually include horse sitting and care for larger animals. 🏡 In-Home Pet Sitting When I stay in your home, your pets are my priority. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible and provide the care, companionship, and attention they’re accustomed to. This can include: • Feeding and fresh water • Potty breaks and walks • Playtime and enrichment • Lots of companionship and cuddles • Medication and special-care instructions when discussed in advance • Maintaining normal feeding and sleep routines • Bringing mail/packages inside • Watering plants and basic home care • Keeping your home clean, tidy, and secure I understand that leaving your pets can be stressful. My goal is to make the experience as easy as possible by keeping their routine familiar and providing you with peace of mind while you're away. 🐶🐱 Drop-In Visits I also offer drop-in visits for pets who are more comfortable staying in their own home. I’ll make sure they have everything they need while you're away, including food, water, potty breaks, playtime, affection, and companionship. 🐶 Dog Walking Seasonal dog walks are available October through March. Because Arizona summers can be extremely hot, I only offer dog walking during the cooler months when outdoor walks are safer and more comfortable for dogs. I tailor walks to each dog’s age, energy level, personality, and comfort level. My goal is to provide a safe, enjoyable walk with plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. Because I work remotely, I’m able to spend significant time at home during pet sits. I enjoy working alongside my animal companions and being available throughout the day for attention, potty breaks, play, and cuddles. I believe great pet care starts with creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment. Whether I’m caring for your pets in their home or taking them on a walk, I follow their established routines and pay close attention to their individual needs, personality, and comfort level. For in-home stays, I treat your home with the same respect I would want for my own. I keep doors, gates, and other entry points secure, make sure pets are safely inside when they should be, and follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, allergies, behavioral needs, and household routines. I’m attentive to potential safety concerns such as weather, unfamiliar surroundings, other animals, and anything that could cause a pet stress or injury. For Arizona dog walks, I only offer walks from **October through March** because cooler temperatures make outdoor exercise safer and more comfortable. I also understand that some pets need time to warm up to a new person. I never force interaction. I let pets approach me at their own pace and build trust through patience, consistency, positive attention, and respecting their boundaries. Your pets’ safety and well-being always come first. My goal is for them to feel secure and cared for, while you have peace of mind knowing that both your pets and your home are in responsible hands.

“Robert was the perfect choice for me. I needed to go to the emergency room, and I had a friend who took Bernie for 1 day. I put in my request and Robert responded immediately. Since I was in the ER he met with my friend, and she gave him all of Bernie's needs. After meeting with Robert, she said that she liked him so much that she would not hesitate to use him for her 2 cream goldens. Robert made 2 great impressions on one stop. I would use him every chance I get. He did light housework and sent pics of Bernie and made sure Bernie was a happy boy. Thank you Robert.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Danielle. She took excellent care of our dog, giving him plenty of attention and love, and keeping to his usual routine as well as sending updates multiple times a day. She also treated our home with great care and left everything clean and in perfect condition. We came home feeling completely at ease, knowing both our dog and our house were in good hands. We have already scheduled Danielle to stay with our dog again in a couple of weeks.”

About: A true professional will provide you with unparalleled peace of mind so you can focus on family, fun or work while traveling. I'm Brit, an independently insured pet sitter and local Tucsonan. Pet sitting is my full time job! Booking with me will make it as easy and stress free as possible to be away from your beloved pet(s). The Kitty Cottage is a lovely garden studio where your feline friends can relax in peace without the worries of traditional boarding solutions that involve sharing ventilation and space with pets from other households. It has 128 sqft of floor space as well as a 32 sqft loft. The cottage has been designed for excellent bird watching opportunities from every level - floor, cat furniture and loft. Accessibility can be modified based on your kitties' needs. Cats of all personalities and physical ability love the climate-controlled cottage overlooking a garden which hosts many birds, butterflies, and lizards daily. We have every kind of pet enrichment to offer so your cat will benefit from novel, mentally satisfying experiences every single day! Music made for cats softly plays throughout the day, with the soundtrack changed daily. A tablet plays games and videos for them. New toys, tunnels and rugs are brought in daily to provide novelty. The kitty cottage will be your cat's ultimate vacation! I am very comfortable caring for diabetic and aging or grumpy cats and my calm energy puts them at ease. Everything in the cottage can be moved or modified to suit kitties with mobility issues. Your beloved furry companion(s) will be happy and well cared for if you trust them with me! I visit the cottage several times a day, depending on your cat's social and medical needs. Frequent visits provide kitties with plenty of time to play, give and receive affection, engage with enrichment items, and enjoy some human company. Mealtimes and medications will be followed to the letter. Your cat will also see me in the backyard throughout the day, and I also check in on them via camera. The camera records all movement so I can review every moment of your kitty's day, ensuring they always have fresh food, water, and litterboxes. Camera access is available via the Ring app so you can check in on your kitty throughout their stay. Pet parents will receive professional-quality photos from every visit each day, as well as a 5+ minute video showcasing the highlights of your cat's day. If preferred, I can send clips throughout each day showing the highlights of their vacation in the cottage. Pickup and drop-off are free anywhere within 20 miles of Ina/Thornydale, but please note that I will not assist in finding or catching kitties for pickup. Cat(s) must already be in their carrier or crate at the pickup time scheduled. The standard cancellation policy may apply if your pet is not ready or able to be safely transported to the cottage. The cottage is safely situated behind locked gates on private property, and only accessible for dropoff or pickup with a scheduled appointment. A fee of $10/hour will be charged if pet parents are late for pickup. Circumstances requiring an exception to these stipulations must be discussed prior to booking, otherwise our standard fee and cancellation policies may apply. As for more info about me: I began cat sitting at 6 years old when I offered to feed my next door neighbor's cat lunch and scoop his litter box every weekday in exchange for a jar of dill pickles per week. Since then I have provided routine, kitten and elder care for the feline companions of friends, family and clients. I have 5 cats of my own who live in our main house, and being their Mom is a great source of joy in my life. Each has a unique personality and their own routine with me throughout the day, and I love spoiling them! Booking me will enable you to focus on fun, family or work while away because you have countless Instagram-worthy photos, lengthy high-quality videos and detailed notes from every single drop-in that really highlight the professional level of care your pets are receiving. When you contact me for a booking, I will want to know absolutely anything and everything you can tell me about your pet. Health history, personality, likes, dislikes, quirks, and concerns are especially important! There is no detail too small. There is no other boarding or drop-in sitter experience like this in the greater Tucson area, so book early to ensure your cats' next staycation is absolutely purrfect! If you want your pet to experience social and physical enrichment, genuine TLC, and consistently high quality care then please do book with me as soon as you have your schedule confirmed. From me you can always expect utmost safety and cleanliness, respect of your home and privacy, all requests dutifully followed, enriching playtime, exercise and affection for your pets, multiple high quality videos & pictures sent throughout walk or stay, all dietary and behavioral notes followed to the letter, never a last-minute cancelation or no show, and all health and safety precautions dutifully taken EVERY single time. You will rest easy knowing your pets are in the best hands because I only accept bookings for which I know I can provide the best possible care!

“Theresa stayed with our fur babies while we were out of town for 10 days. She clearly has a lot of experience taking care of pets. She was super professional, communication was great. She sent daily photos/updates. I did not worry at all while we were away. Both the dog and cat seemed very happy and well cared for when we got home, and the house was left immaculately clean, almost like she'd never been there! I will definitely be booking Theresa again. Highly recommend.”
