House Sitting in Santa Cruz Southwest, Tucson

“House was left in great condition and our dog was well taken care of.”

“Dottie was very well cared for with lots of walks and attention! House well cared for and even laundry done! Alison will be invited back for sure”

“My cat had a health emergency 2 days before I had a trip planned - Sabrina agreed to house sit for me last minute and give him meds 4 times a day. She is an angel! She totally saved me in this stressful situation. She took great care of both my cats, gave the sick one all his doses, and communicated well with me about his health status the whole time! My cats and I love her!!!! She's so sweet and caring and I instantly trusted her with my pets and she did NOT disappoint!!!”

“I am so happy I found Lisa to pet sit my cat while we were traveling on a camping trip. Lisa stayed overnight with Lilly and provided updates and photos during the stay. I felt so calm knowing my baby was being taken care of so well! We came back to a clean house and everything in perfect order. I look foward to working with Lisa again in the future and HIGHLY recommend her!! It can be scary trusting your pet with a new person but you are in perfect hands with Lisa ? She is great with pets, kind, respectful, and communicative.”

“Jennifer was awesome and I would highly recommend her to watch your pets. We hired her for a 5 day/4 night engagement to watch our moderate energy 5 year old Bernese mountain dog. She sent pics and texts a few times a day which eased my mind! He got plenty of walks and love. Jennifer approaches this form a business owner perspective and even had a PDF “Pet and House Guide” for me to fill out ahead of time that thought of all the random pet and house info so I didn’t have to stress about what to leave notes about. In addition to all this, Jennifer even ran the dishwasher and laundry before she left. Your pets and home will be well cared for with Jennifer!”

“We have used Dina a few times now and she is very responsive, sends daily pics, and lets us know quickly if there are any issues! We trust her with all our babies :)”

“Julia was great with Charlie, my nervous dog and Leia, my skittish feline. Maya, my cat, who thinks she is a dog, got plenty of attention. They settled in quickly and all were in great spirits when i arrived home. Julia kept in touch with updates and pictures throughout the time I was away. She went out of her way to treat Charlie on his 13th birthday 🎂 .”

“I felt great leaving for the weekend knowing my pets would be well taken care of! Allyson is reliable and took excellent care of my cat and dog, despite my cats grumpiness. Would recommend her!”

About: Hello! I have been caring for my own and others' pets for a decade. Currently I have a little dog and 3 cats at home. I am not that great at 'about me' sections but I am great with animals! Contact me about what your pet needs and we'll work something out. I am well-versed in positive training techinques, puzzle games and scent games and can figure out a fun activity for any dog. I strive to provide enriching and joyful experiences and am happy to provide your pet with a sampler of the local parks, a hike in the mountains, a swim in the pool, couch snuggles or a play session in the back yard depending on what they like. I am flexible and can adjust to what your dog needs and wants.

“Austin was an awesome pet sitter. Taking care of 3 poodles for 1 week is a big job, but Austin handled it very well. My dogs loved him and were very happy while I was out of town. I would recommend him to all of my friends and would hope to have him pet sit again for me.”

“Ashley is an ANGEL. She’s lovely with pets and humans too! I left for what was supposed two nights and admittedly booked pretty last minute. Ashley came over in the morning to introduce herself to my three pets while I was still there. Ashley was like a Disney princess that animals flock to: my usually bratty cat was super social with her, and the dogs couldn’t get enough of her attention. My cat ran up to her when she came into the room, and as the trip went on, Ashley sent me videos of her rolling around and purring, which is a HUGE deal for the cat. Ashley was able to really bond with BOTH of my dogs, who are very needy in different, and occasionally contrasting, ways. She got them to climb out of their shells. While housesitting, she got my shy dog to climb in bed with her. She sent me pictures of them every morning and evening and gave me little updates. I may be projecting, but she TRULY understood how special my pets are. A couple hours before she was supposed to done and off the clock, my flight got canceled and I could get home until late the next day. Ashley stayed an extra day, and I came home to happy, healthy animals. I honestly was so nervous to leave my babies, but, with Ashley, I am ready to go to all my friend and family events without worrying. To top it all off, she left treats for my dogs. If you need a pet sitter, Ashley is the honestly the best you can get. She’s the cat’s meow. 10/10. Above and beyond.”

“Noah is the perfect pet sitter... he is compassionate, organized and caring. He had to administer medicine and did a beautiful job. I felt so at peace with Naoh was in my home with my cat and dog, I knew they were being well taken care of, and from the photos I could tell they were very happy! thank you Noah. I look forward to having you pet sit again.”

“Eve was amazing! I'm happy that I found someone that I can trust and that my pups are comfortable with! I travel a couple times a month and I feel good knowing that I have someone to take care of my babies, and I can leave without worrying! Thank you, Eve! We will see you soon!”

About: I have owned dogs and cats all my life. There has never been a time I haven't had an animal living with me. Until now... I’m retired and get my dog fix from dog-sitting. I believe that there is no greater love than the love from a pet. I started dog sitting when I was between teaching jobs. I have retired from teaching elementary art. I live with my bf on about 1/4 acre. Fenced yard and security cameras. We are master gardeners and have about 1000 square feet of organic garden. We are Urban farmers ... dogs really enjoy running around our yard. I love to walk dogs and play with them in yard. We would love to share our home with your pets.

“If you are looking for a good sitter you can trust, Rosa is your person. She’s AMAZING, and she truly cares. Thank you Rosa for watching my dogs. Im happy to know I can always count on you to care for all my animals.”

“Amanda has watched my two cats, Babs and Luna, countless times while I’ve been away. She makes sure all there needs are met, sends pictures and updates, and gives the cats lots of attention and play time while I’m away. She’s great with cats and dogs alike and I always come back to happy pets. I definitely recommend Amanda!”

“Riley was awesome! Our 2 dogs do not easily warm up to new people but Riley won them over! Riley walked them twice a day in the Tucson summer heat. She sent frequent photos & texts to keep us updated. We would definitely hire Riley again!”

“Kaylee was a great sitter! She was extremely communicate and kept great care of our dog while we were out of town. Anytime we needed something, she was available to take a text/call. She even made arrangements for us when her own family emergency came up, which was appreciated! She also cleaned up our house before leaving and everything looked great when we came back. We'll definitely use her again ☺️”

“Shelby did a great job with our pups. She made sure to send photos and videos when she let them out. She even waged their bowls for them after their last meal.”

“Michelle was wonderful once again. Unfortunately, our pup seemed to catch a stomach bug and Michelle nursed him right back! She took the time to prepare different foods to help him and was extremely patient with his difficult pallet. She unfortunately had to clean up a few accidents he had and not once did I ever feel as if she was annoyed or bothered about it. I was so embarrassed/worried about it, but she assured us she was taking care of it and for us not to worry. Her care for our dog and cat is incredible. She truly treats our pets as if they were her own. Both times we have had her sit for us, she has gone way above and beyond.”
