“Madison was absolutely wonderful!! She has watched our pack of 4 dogs and 2 cats twice now and we felt safe each time knowing our animals were in great care. She even got our very nervous dog to warm up to her and snuggle her! I highly recommend Madison for any pet sitting, we will be using her again in the future for sure!”
“Brianna did a great job watching our house and elderly pup! She had great communication and we appreciated the frequent updates and images. Our house looked just as good as we left it, nothing out of the ordinary. We’ll definitely be using her in the future!”
“Dina is fantastic! We were super happy about her watching over Charly ( crazy youg goldenretriever) and Lilly (cat). All went so well with the animal and her entire stay. She is definitely a responsible person. We will have her again with no hesitation! See you soon again, Dina. Emmie and Patrick”
“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.”
“We’re so glad we found Elizabeth! We felt at ease leaving the dogs with them because they are caring. They sent updates, pictures, and videos of our dogs which gave us peace of mind. We were a little bit worried because one of our dogs is a rescue who does not trust people immediately, but he felt so comfortable with Elizabeth and they were great with him. We’re lucky to have found Elizabeth on rover and hope to have them watch our dogs again in the future! Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Allison was great with communication. It was my first time to use Rover, as I usually go with friends I trust but it’s time to get a real professional. I was reassured several times a day (which is what I asked for) that my dogs were ok. Allison did ask for the quirks and preferences of my 2 dogs, of they have some, and I feel she really listened, understood & acted on the information. I was breathing a little easier knowing Alison was doing her sincere business of pet love & care. Thank you, Alison!”
“Maggie was outstanding. She had a lot of fun with Karma, and provided regular updates and photos. Extremely professional. I highly recommend her. Will use her services again!”
“Amber stayed at my house and took care of my dog, cat and lizard for 4 days. I felt comfortable having her at my home and she took great care of my pets! I would highly recommend her!”
“Bridget did a great job with our two dogs. She was willing to accommodate us when our AC went out in the middle of the summer the night before she was supposed to house sit. I was able to get the AC repaired but was very appreciative she was willing to make it work. Dogs are happy, we’re happy. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been caring for all kinds of furry animals for several years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and other furry companions, and I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique needs, personality, and routine. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets, and I always treat every animal like my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon! I’m available every day for pet care and would love the opportunity to spend time with your pets! I have a daytime work schedule during the week, but for house sitting, I’m able to stay in your home, care for your pets in the morning before heading out, and return after work to continue their routine and spend quality time with them. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule and make sure they continue receiving the care and attention they’re used to. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and little quirks. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing with their favorite toys, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. I’ll make sure your pets receive consistent care throughout your time away, including meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also attentive to keeping their environment clean and making sure everything is left just as I found it. When you’re away, I want your pets to feel as comfortable and secure as possible in their own home. I understand that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful, so I do my best to provide reliable communication, regular updates, and lots of reassurance. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pets are being cared for, loved, and treated like they’re my own while you’re away. 🐾💕 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning if needed, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. I also make sure the home stays neat and send updates so owners know their pets are doing well.
“Lacey was an amazing fit for dog sitting with our perfect mutt, Roubidoux. Fantastic communication skills, frequent updates with photos, and an awareness that travelling can be at times an emotional roller coaster (for both humans and pets!). Based on an exceptional ability (and making it exceptionally easy on our end), I would highly recommend Lacey to anyone that is looking for an attentive, caring, and qualified companion for their pet. And, not to forget, the highest compliment: Roubidoux loved Lacey!”
“Elena was great! She was very communicative, and asked questions when she had questions. She was very good with my dog who can be guarded until he gets to know. She was patient and caring with him until he felt comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Not sure who liked her more our dog or us!!! Sammie is amazing! Followed the directions for our dog down to the very finest detail. She communicates often and clearly and took care of everything we needed. We highly recommend Sammie and will calling her in the future!”
“Jennifer took great care of my senior dog and cat while I went out of town! I really appreciated the frequent updates and photos. I returned to my girls happy and healthy, I can tell they got lots of love. Highly recommend and will rebook in the future! Thank you so much Jennifer!!”
“Amazing service. Oliver stayed in my residence to take care of my two cats for a long term stay. He sent regular photo updates (as requested), was quick to communicate any updates or questions, and generally kept the place standing and clean while I was gone. Very trustworthy and reliable. 10/10 would book again for short and long term services!”

Mia was just wonderful with my Bailey. We had just moved into a new house and Bailey was very anxious and having separation anxiety. Mia took such wonderful care and comforted her and they became quick friends. She is very sweet and kind and left the house spotless. I would highly recommend Mia!
Marnesha was fantastic! Super communicative, personable, and friendly. She took great care of my dog and made me feel completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and I’d absolutely book with Marnesha again. Highly recommend!
Our pup is 120lb Boerboel and Maddison was excellent with him. We had newly adopted him and only had him 4 weeks when we needed a sitter. She had experience with giant breeds which was a great match for us. He was nervous and scared of her at first, but she was patient and thoughtful with him. By the end of the week, they were having a great time. She sent tons of pictures and was excellent with communication! We will definitely be requesting her again.
👏👏OUTSTANDING 👏👏 I returned home (after a 3 week trip) to a happy dog, a very clean & tidy home. I am very grateful to Eli and feel very fortunate to have had her here taking care of my pup and home! Eli was a specially patient and kind to my very frightened, shy four year-old terrier. I received daily updates and photos of my pup, Jimmy. Eli is an EXCELLENT communicator; she is prompt, responsible, resourceful and was very respectful of my home. I am immensely grateful to Eli for all her caring and patience with Jimmy. I felt 100% assured that he was in kind and caring hands. I can’t wait to have her sit again. Having Eli house/ pup sit for me was a lot like winning the lottery. Thanks so much Eli
Leticia was wonderful. I highly recommend her. She communicates well, took great pictures, kept us informed about Scarlett and followed all of our directions. She made us feel comfortable while we were away and took good care of Scarlett. We would definitely use her again.
Kayla, did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs, two tortoises, garden and house. She sent messages and pictures daily. Kayla gave love and needed medication to my dogs. I highly recommend her for house sitting and pet watching. I definitely will use her again.
Melanie looked after our multiple pets very well and also cared for our house while we were away for 10 days. We felt very comfortable with her and the house was in great shape when we got home, and the pets were all healthy and happy. Melanie stayed in touch throughout our trip. We would be happy to have her back again.
Carmen was an amazing dog sitter! She kept in communication with me on a daily basis, as I asked, she followed all the instructions I left her for my dog and the house such as taking the trash out and watering the plants. When she wasn’t sure of something, she would check in with me to ask which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Carmen as a sitter and I will definitely use her services again! My dog loved her and was well taken care of.
Evelyn is fantastic! ❤️ We definitely will recommend her and we will book again soon with her! She is sweet, responsible, professional and communicative. My dog Leo was sick and she took care of him. This gave us so much peace while we were traveling. She send us videos and photos and that was a plus! Thank you Evelyn

FAQs for House Sitting - South Tucson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in South Tucson on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,018 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Tucson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred South Tucson walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in South Tucson maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in South Tucson choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
