Doggy Day Care in Santa Cruz Southwest, Tucson

“We left our Chihuahua Jack Russell mix with Barbara for a whole long day while we came to town to attended a graduation. We were apprehensive about leaving our baby anywhere mostly because he can be kinda crazy lol but she instantly made us feel very comfortable from the moment we walked in the door. You can tell that she genuinely loves dogs and is very comfortable with them. Her home is very inviting and secure and just perfect for four-legged friends. There were two other "guests" there and I kind of felt like I was leaving him at a little doggy party. He seemed happy from the get-go so that made us happy to leave him there. She was also very flexible with our time to drop off and pick up. And very easy to communicate with sending us pictures throughout the day. Her rate was great too! I would highly recommend Barbara and we'll definitely use her again again if the need arises! Thanks for loving Henry for us yesterday Barbara!”

“Alex is great! Invited me in his home to see where reward was gonna play. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with him. Alex sent pictures throughout the day and always kept me informed.”

“We were in town and decided to do a last minute visit to the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum, which does not allow dogs. I messaged Barbara and she responded very quickly and was available to keep our dog for a few hours so we could enjoy the museum while Duke enjoyed play time with Yuki, the husky! Thank you, Barbara!”

“Lesley has been great with Snowball multiple times. Very caring and accommodating for last minute circumstances (on my end). I trust her and appreciate everything she's done for my pup!”

“Tasha has watched our lil munchkin Fred twice and he loved being there with her and her pets. She was great in keeping us updated on his daily activities with pictures and letting us know what he is up to. Will definitely be using her again definitely recommend her.”

“Yara Lee is al sinds haar kind tijd een dierenliefhebber en is opgegroeid in een huis met vier katten en met ouders die van dieren houden. Als kind bekommerde zij zich al om kleine dieren zoals vogels, cavia's en hamsters. Al op haar 6e jaar werd zij bewust vegetariër. Samen met haar moeder redde ze een kater die in een kelder was gezet en samen adopteerden zij deze getraumatiseerde kat. Zij is rustig en vriendelijk naar dieren toe en heeft een natuurlijk overwicht. Ze is voor een aantal jaren de vaste hondenoppas geweest van een Koningspoedel en had ook de verantwoordelijkheid gedurende een aantal dagen/nachten en of weken voor deze hond. Yara Lee is gek op honden en voelt zich met hen comfortabel. Ze houdt van wandelingen in de natuur en haar liefde voor honden gaat verder dan voeren en uitlaten; zij maakt werkelijk contact met de behoeften van het dier en ziet hen als een levend wezen wat er toe doet. Ze zal haar werk met vreugde uitoefenen en is sterk genoeg om het overwicht te hebben en het baasje te zijn. Yara Lee is een goede keuze voor deze baan!”

“Kerry is incredible with animals, my grumpy cats that don't like anyone love her, she gets down on their level It's so fun to watch. Even my dogs who I have trained to guard our 4 acre property love her. She is definitely an animal person, very kind hearted and soft spoken. I would absolutely recommend Kerry for any animal sitting/walking needs, she's definitely an animal whisper.”

“Regina is wonderful with our corgi lab staffy mix, Riku. She is so patient and loving toward him. Cannot recommend her enough.”

About: Pet sitting just kind of fell into my lap as a teenager. I became a regular dog for family friends and neighbors, over the years that’s became more of a pet sitting gig. I’m a stay at home mom and have 2 small dogs in home, one being a senior dog. I do leave occasionally for outings that usually don’t last more than an hour or 2. I do not have a fenced in yard so I do a walk the dogs around my community. I have 2 small children so at this time I can only take small dogs, cats, hamsters, rats, ferrets, Guinea pigs. I love to provide pictures/FaceTimes for you so you know your fur baby is in the best place possible.

“I feel like maybe Lexi doesn't need me to keep reviewing her (every time Sophie stays) but then I get photos like this! If you want your pup cared for like you do, or better Lexi is the perfect fit. Everything revolves around the pups! I'm so happy to have reliable, loving and skilled pet care! Thank you.”

“Ellen cares so much for Dobi, and she shares a lot of great knowledge about caring for him! We feel so good about leaving him with her, and we love that he gets to play with her dogs all day!”

“Accommodated a last minute request to watch our baby pup! Would book again”

“Our dog Buddy really enjoyed his stay. Larry was patient, and Buddy felt relaxed right away when he walked into his home. Will definitely come back again!”

About: Hi there! My name is Yisel and I’m an avid dog lover. My journey with pet care started when I adopted my first dog Bayron 12 years ago. Now I am very lucky to have Yuiza’s company, a golden retriever that loves everyone and everything (of course). I am very emphatic on maintaining daily routines and providing a positive environment with lots of love and attention that all dogs deserve. I can’t wait to meet your beloved pet and become their new trusted companion! I currently work full time M-F but I get to visit home at lunchtime. I live very close to work and I am off on the weekends. I have enough space to crate you dog or keep in a separate room, if needed. I also have a big fenced yard where I usually play with my dog.

“Bob had a great day with Tijana, he ran up to her like he’s known her forever and was sad to leave! Fantastic communication and beautiful nature, highly recommended”

“I would choose Bella to care for and watch after my pets any day. Bella is a kind, compassionate person at heart and absolutely adores animals. She sees animals as a vital part of life and constantly seeks to interact with animals as much as she can. She is consistent and dependable to meet their needs and provides them with the love and cuddles they require to feel comforted and secure. Bella would be an excellent choice if I had to be away from my furry friends I would be able to enjoy my time away, knowing they were with Bella.”

“Olivia (and her dog, Piper) was wonderful company for George. He absolutely loved playing in the kiddie pool and wrestling Piper for hours. He came home exhausted - and quite well-behaved - each day! I’m keeping Olivia in my regular contacts for dog-sitting. Thanks so much!”

“Lucy is a pet lover of all animals. She has a great demeanor with the animals and treats them as if they were her own. She has grown up with pets all her life and knows how to care for them in a responsible way.”

“This young lady is the sweetest most loving woman I know. She is loved by my two dogs and cat! Plus she kept my home clean while we were gone. Luna has a way with pets. She has taken care of our babies for years..”
