“Logan was great! I have three dogs who can be a handful and a large dog who gets nervous around new people, but Logan handled them so well and my dogs all came back happy and tired.”

About: Dog buddy on duty! We are active, love walks and playtime, and your furry friend will get lots of attention, love, and companionship here. We also have a big fenced in yard for the doggies who love the outdoors. Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom offering loving, in-home dog boarding in Tucson. Because I’m home most of the day, your dog will get lots of attention, supervision, and companionship — not long hours alone like in a kennel. If necessary and upon request, I am able to be at home all day for constant care. I am able to provide daily walks and can cater to any dietary need, medication administration, or special requests. I have a sweet dog who is almost 3 years old with lots of energy and play in her who would love to have company from a dog buddy. I also have a large fenced back yard and a doggy door. I take our dog on walks, and would love to have your dog join if that is something you would like. I am able to crate your dog upon request with their own crate provided from their home. I also have a baby in the house, so I do need to have your fur baby comfortable with babies/children.

“Larry did a great job with Ellie. He was attentive to her needs and communicated along the way. I’m excited to have Larry as my new walker and seems to be a great fit. I would recommend Larry for anyone needing a dog walker for their fur child.”

“My dog loves Brittany and I love her too. She communicates well. She let me know my dog had an upset stomach - I had no idea he was feeling bad! Thanks to her we were able to adjust his food till he felt better. Every time we leave town we use Brittany to do daily walks. (relatives keep dog but don’t walk him- he needs his exercise!)”

“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”

About: Hi! I've had my cat Olive for 11 years and my dog Bel for 3 years. I have also taken care of close to 70 foster animals mostly kittens, with a few medical fosters, and behavioral issues along the way. I have taken courses on behavioral training for dogs as my own dog is reactive towards dogs, so I am very familiar with dog reactivity. I currently run a small 1 man business from my home and have control over my schedule to provide care to other animals regularly. I also foster other animals from time to time. My own dog is reactive and high energy and needs 3 walks a day usually with a lot of play. My cat is a large maincoon that requires a strict diet and care regimen to keep her pre-diabetes in check.

About: I have walked, fed, bathed, and taken care of dogs of all different breeds and ages. I have enjoyed all my experiences from short walks to sitting for several weeks! I just graduated from the University of Arizona and will not be starting my new job until August 2026, so I have plenty of free time during the summer to play and have adventures with all kinds of pets! I play and let my and my client's pets roam free when in a closed off area, such as the backyard. When taking walks, I make sure to keep the pets on a leash with extra poop bags!

“Azul loves Rachel she walks at her pace and Rachel is very responsible. Azul seems happy when she comes back home and when Rachel comes to pick her up for her walk Azul is very happy.”

About: I have experience taking care of boarding dogs and cats at an animal hospital. I worked for them for a little over a year and have gotten lots of experience with dogs and cats. I used to raise puppies and train them how to sit and have manners for about two years with my parent. I have dog sitting experience and house sitting experience. I am currently going to school at the UofA full time during the weekdays (my class schedule is listed below keep reading) and would be available most days to come and play with the animals for 30 minutes to an hour in the afternoons and overnight sitting. And on weekends I would be free to play with and walk the animals as needed. Class schedule: Mon 1pm-2pm Tue 9:30am-1pm then 3pm-5pm Wed 9am-2pm then 4pm-5pm Thur 9:30am-4pm Fri 1pm-2pm I do also have a job at the animal shelter for part time. That work schedule will vary but will be no more the 4-6 hours a day. Likely to be on the weekends to avoid conflict with school :) For my personal home, I will not be able to board any pets. Although I am very safe and responsible. My person pet uses a crate just for her safety when I am gone. I am good with crate training as needed for your pets as well. I make sure I clean up after every day and leave the house as clean as I can before you arrive back home to your happy animals!

“Isabella did such a wonderful job with Cooper while I was gone! She sent great pix and reported on everything in detail. It made an incredible difference to my peace of mind to know that Cooper was happy and well taken care of.”

“Ricky was great with walking my golden retriever! He was polite and professional and sent lots of pictures of Romeo. I felt good throughout my work day knowing that Romeo was being taken care of!”

“Steve stepped in quickly when I suddenly needed surgery and time to recover. My dog waited anxiously by the door for four weeks because she knew she was in for an adventure every day, in the neighborhood or a local park. I really appreciated Steve's flexibility and extra assistance while I recovered.”

I prioritize safe, structured walks, positive interaction, and maintaining your dog's normal routine as closely as possible. I'm comfortable with leash training reinforcement, medications administration, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, or extra patience and care, I provide dependable, knowledgeable support so you can feel confident they're in good hands while you're away. I currently work full time as a Certified Veterinary Technician, so I am frequently available for early-morning and evening care. This makes me a great fit for before-work, after-work, overnight, and weekend care needs. I'm typically available for morning visits and walks, as well as evening drop-ins, feeding, and extended care. My schedule allows me to provide reliable, routine-based care, especially for pets who do best with consistency. I'm committed to communicating clearly and planning ahead so your pet's needs are always covered with gaps or stress. If you have specific timing needs, feel free to reach out - I do my best to accommodate recurring and flexible schedules whenever possible. I provide all pet care exclusively in the client's home, where pets feel most secure and comfortable in their familiar environment. This helps reduce stress and allows me to maintain their normal routine with minimal disruptions.

About: I’ve dog sat for friends and family for 10 years. I have a dog and a ‘spicy’ cat and I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. When I walk into a room, I’ve been known to say hi to the dogs in the room first before the people. I understand dog body language, and I know that they’re all individuals. I also understand that each owner has their own way of doing things, and I’m conciencious of following your rules and routines, because you know what’s best for your animals. I truly enjoy getting to meet new animals and getting to know their personalities. I also enjoy being able to help owners have the best for their pets. Having a pet is a huge responsibility, and I know from personal experience sometimes it feels like you have to choose between being a good pet parent and having a life. But it’s possible to do both, and I’m here to help! Currently my schedule is wide open. I recently graduated, and while I am looking for a job, I have lots of time to care for your pets, whether that be checking on them in your home or taking your dog for a walk. Some weekends I have to travel to Phoenix, but if I am in Tucson, I am happy to care for your pets on the weekends and week days. I keep my calendar updated so make sure to check that out! When caring for your pets in your home, I will follow your directions. In previous roles, I have stopped to care for pets every couple days, once a day, or twice a day, depending on what was requested. I am happy to fill food bowls as necessary or feed specific quantities of food at specific times. I also don’t mind cleaning litter boxes or ensuring automatic litter boxes are operating properly. I am also happy to clean up pet messes they may leave behind, such as tracking litter, spilling food, or potty accidents.

“Josie was wonderful - very responsive, friendly, great with our pup and completely flexible with my changing schedule, which I totally appreciated. We will definitely use her for walks again.”

“Parker took excellent care of Baloo during drop-in visits. He did a great job of following my list of pretty extensive instructions, and spent extra time keeping my anxious boy company. I received daily photos of a happy dog! I will not hesitate to book with Parker and Alysa again.”

“Kailey was prompt picking up Mixtli for his walk, she communicated with me and sent photos. Mixtli looked thrilled to be on his walk! I look forward to asking her for walks in the future.”

“Came over last minute when I had an emergency and had to be out of the house. Walked my dog Nysa per instructions and even scooped the litter box for me!”

Ashley W.

“Angus is fantastic all around! He communicates very well in advance of and throughout his Rover appointments to make sure they run smoothly and to ensure your pup is well cared for. My dog loved him as well, totally wanting to play with Angus the moment he met him and picking up on his fun spirit. I’d highly recommend Angus to anyone looking for extra help to care for their pup.”
