Pet Sitting Rillito

“Lauren was fantastic! She was very attentive to my kitty,Mango! She sent great pictures and spent quality time with her, I could tell Mango was happy! She also took great care of my plants! She was easy to communicate with and made me feel so comfortable being gone. I highly recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs and will definitely use her again!”

“Marlee took incredible care of our kitties while we were on vacation for almost a week. We'd never left them alone that long before and were very nervous. But with every visit, Marlee sent detailed updates and the cutest pictures (lots of them were action shots of the kitties playing)! Even our shy kitty took only a few days to warm up to her. Marlee was also very communicative and responsive throughout the whole process. She'll definitely be our first choice to care for Kal and Syl next time we leave town! Thank you, Marlee!”

“Maggie was an absolute dream to work with! She went above and beyond to make sure she knew the laying the land and sent us lots of pictures to show what a great time our fur babies were having with her. Will definitely be asking her to come back soon!”

About: I’ve been a groomer for 14 years now. I know everything from safety procedures, to behavioral procedures. I know how to bring any shy dog or cat out of its shell! I have learned a lot over the years so I’m positive that your pets will feel safe and best of all happy as can be with me! I make my own work schedule so whatever day or time you need, I’ll be there! I’m never too far so if your pup needs a daily walk or your kitty needs a friendly visit, easy peasy! If your pup is staying in my home, rest assured, your four legged child will have plenty of potty breaks! I have a fenced yard that is inside a gated community! My walls are also very tall so no worry of jumping! If for some reason your pet needs to be in a crate, I can accommodate that. I have a spacious home and comfy living quarters! I am also AKC certified so I have all the safety boxes checked!

About: At 55, I have been a pet owner most of my life. When I first moved to Tucson in 2006, my now wife had a husky and tabby cat which we unfortunately lost years ago. Since then we have been mainly cat owners seeing as our house is quite small but I do miss being around, playing with and walking dogs. I am mature but still a kid at heart, flexible schedule, reliable transportation, indoors mostly but loves to be outside and, above all, a lifetime fan of animals. Cheers! Seeing as I work from home and set my own schedule, I can be there when you need, as you need, if you need, all of that. Breaking away from my laptop and house husband duties to hang out with your dog(s) or cat(s) for an extended amount of time is a far better prospect than running errands or checking the mail. Since February of this year, 2026, we are proud parents of a a brother and sister combo of, lets say, rather enthusiastic kittens. It is a small cottage midtown, a safe and loving environment with far too many toys that they sometimes play with, food and water bowls that are always full, I take time out every afternoon to deep clean the house and I even started an Instagram for them that is usually either a) the duo being in the way when we're trying to watch a movie or me cooking dinner or b) chronicling what we like to call "turbo time", aka the zoomies.

About: I have 20 years experience caring for all types of animals (reptiles, small animals, cats, dogs with a wide range of medical and behavioral challenges. I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. If you are looking for dog boarding at my home the dog/dogs must be minimal barkers otherwise I will welcome their company as my co-worker for the day- I recently lost my senior pet so this home is too empty! At my home I have a fenced in yard with no other pets so your pet will have quality attention (one pet family boarding at my home at a time.) Experienced in crate training/crated dogs. Will only provide treats that are provided by owner to be conscious of potential allergies or other dietary restrictions. Can help assist in potty training or teaching any other tricks while you are away. I don’t allow dogs to pull on walks and will actively work with your pet to reduce this behavior. Your pet will be treated like a member of the family with patience, love and compassion backed my many years experience and training on animal behavior.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I love and care for them and think that every dog is special and unique in their own way. They all have different personalities, things they like and do which I love. I am a college student but have a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week and am completely available all weekends as well. I am usually able to make things work. I care for pets by following instructions and rules that are given to me. I also watch the pets closely and keep an eye on them at all times. I think it is important for them to also feel safe and comfortable with me.

About: I’ve been doing this since I was 12! I am good at following directions, communication, cleaning up accidents, listening, and so much more!! I also am very flexible! I am a college student but I have breaks a lot so I can visit in between courses! I am typically free when not in class! I follow what the parents say/write and I make sure to give the pet all the love I can if they let me! I clean up accidents and litter box’s, I feed, walk, cuddle, etc.

About: I have been a licensed massage therapist for 12 years. My skills have overflowed into treating animals big, small and in between sizes (horses, dogs, cats, rats). I learned to communicate with animals by reading their body language and energy. With this skill, I have trained 5 dogs to use the treadmill, 1 cat to use the toilet, and 1 dog to pass his canine good citizen certificate. I enjoy working with animals slightly more than humans...shhh don't tell my human clients :) Rover does not have a setting to reflect an absence of 6-8 hours, which is what my standard rate covers. Absences of less that 6 hrs will have an reasonable continuous care fee dependant on location and duration of booking, since I need to commute to my workplace in Oracle 1-2 days a week. I am self employed as a Licensed Massage Therapist and I make my own schedule. I treat animals as well. I can adjust my schedule as needed. During the winter I prioritize my human clients which still allows me to overnight sit. During the summer I have more time to provide play dates and walks. As of now, I only accept overnight sits at the owners home. I have a valid Arizona Level 1 Fingerprint Clearance Card, issued by the AZ Dept. of Public Safety for my work as a Licensed Massage Therapist and for my volunteer work in Hospice. I combine my experience and intuition in observing how the owners respond to their pets and incorporate what the animal is familiar with. I bring my ability to communicate through body language and energy to create a calming presence. I ask clarifying questions. I know owners want the best for their pets!
