Doggy Day Care Starr Pass

About: I've had dogs most of my life. First was Lance, a Springer Spaniel, when i was 4-yrs old. Add German Shorthair Pointers, Weimeraners, Labs, both English and Anerican Cocker Spaniels, terrier mix breeds and my current pup is a Long Hair Chihuahua. Most of my dogs have been shelter rescues. Also, I foster dogs for local shelters. I am retired and spend most of my time at home working in my new garden reading, or crafting. When we have dog guests, our time is devoted primarily to our visitors. Human away time rarely exceeds 4-hrs per day. I have a large fenced yard to run and play in whenever they want Chewy, the Chihuahua, is a friendly companion. Indoors is a dog-friendly/dog priority 3-bdrm home. Plenty of space if a visitor needs some quiet privacy or a mim with pups wants separation. Daily walks add to our exercise regime. Balls, frisbees and dogs are shared. Treats abound!

“Barbara was so kind and easy to work with. She sent pictures and updates of our pup throughout his stay which made me feel relaxed knowing he was safe and having a good time. He got play time and walks and was tuckered out when he got home. It was clear Barbara enjoys what she is doing, which really makes a difference. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”

About: *hablo Español* Hello! My name is Marcela. After taking a break from Rover - I am back and excited to meet new furry friends! I am a Tucson native and I love animals! I have experience caring for my own fur babies, as well as dog sitting for friends, family, and new friends from Rover. After losing my 2 fur babies I have an empty home with so much love to give - love to give your fur babies! My promise is to care for your babies as if they were my own. Walking, feeding, playing, brushing, and all the pets and cuddles! Aside from the top level of care I guarantee to provide your furry family members, I am also respectful of privacy and abiding by your rules and wishes. Your home - along with everything inside - will be in great hands! I also own my home and offer doggy day care & boarding services. Your babies will have fun running around the spacious backyard and you will have peace of mind knowing it is completely fenced in! Thank you for considering me and know you can be at ease about your pet(s) needs while you are away. I look forward to meeting your cuddly babies! :) I work remotely from my home and my work day ends at 2:30pm. I have a fairly flexible schedule for drop ins during and/or after. When caring for your pets in your home, I guarantee complete professionalism and respect of your personal space. Also no matter what your pet's routine, I will make sure it is followed 100%

About: I've loved dogs my whole life! When I was born my mom had a chocolate lab and a doberman. Then my dad got a rescue pitbull and a husky mix. Right now my family has a mini golden doodle who's been with us for 14 years and a mini Aussie doodle. I also have a pitbull mix named nova! She's two years old. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me! I just graduated esthetician school and I’m currently starting my business. Everything I make on rover goes towards my career! Im currently starting my entrepreneurial journey. Right now I’m a full time pet care giver. I also work a weekend night job. I do not have a set schedule so I have open availability. I prefer to care for pets in my home but I’m always happy to accommodate whatever the client needs. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play and accessible paths for walks. During sittings I make sure to not only take great care of the pet but the clients home as well.

“Alondra was really awesome with our dog Mackie. She gave Mackie lots of exercise and playtime, played with family and met new friend puppies too. We left Mackie with Elondra on two separate consecutive days, he was always happy and wore out when we picked him up. There's a large secure yard in a very nice neighborhood, we didn't have to worry one bit about leaving our baby with Alondra. We'd give 10 stars if we could.”

“Paloma was very sweet and made me feel at ease,even though I have a 75 lb bloodhound.Her comfort with dogs and herself made me feel confident that I could trust her with my big dog.”

“Amber absolutely loves going over to have a fun day with her besties at Adria’s house! Amber is a very shy dog, so I know she truly loves it there because every time I drop her off, she runs out of my car, her tail is wagging like crazy, and she is always so happy and excited to willingly run right into the house. That alone gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s somewhere she feels comfortable and safe. Adria is such a wonderful dog lover and is incredibly reliable, caring, and trustworthy. I always feel completely comfortable leaving Amber with her while I’m at work because I know she’s getting so much love, attention, and care. I couldn’t recommend Adria enough; she is truly amazing. 100/10! 🐾❤️”

“Janice was so great with Lucky! It was a perfect fit since she also has a small older dog and Lucky seemed super happy coming home:)”

About: When I moved into my house in 2018, one of my first priorities was to get a dog. Recently, Addie, who spent the past 7 years with me, had to be put down unexpectedly. I miss her a ton, and I would love to open my home to another dog (the yard just calls out for it), but I am unable to adopt at the moment for logistical/financial reasons. I would love for your pets and I to keep each other company while I work from home during the day! I am a diligent and reliable person who works remotely as a paralegal, so I always need excuses (whether walks, play, food, snuggles, or just potty breaks) to get up from my desk and move at intervals throughout the work day. I love animals of all kinds - in addition to my own dog, I can submit my friends' pets as references (Mildred the cat likes me better than her owner's wife, and Maggie the dog is obsessed with me while spurning every other friend her owners have). I'm also a birdwatcher and a huge fan of all the wildlife in my yard, from bunnies to lizards. My dog training and medical/senior pet care skills are limited, but I am open to learning and strongly attentive to detail - I will be sure to give your pet what they need. I work from home during the week, with approximate hours of 7 am - 4 pm M-F. On Tuesdays I have appointments in the afternoons, so I will not be available for day care that day. Weekend availability will depend on my plans. I don't have any pets at home currently. I have a screened-in patio with a dog door leading to the fenced-in backyard. When the weather is nice (not too hot), I like to work in the patio. The yard backs onto a wash, so there is a lot of wildlife in the area. Javelinas and coyotes frequent the area but cannot get into the yard. I have seen two rattlesnakes in the yard in 7 years of living here. I would not leave small/medium dogs or cats outside unsupervised. If you give permission, I would feel comfortable leaving large dogs who are snake trained outside while I'm in the house (as I often did with my 80 lb golden doodle).

“She was excellent. We dropped the dogs off super early in the morning before we had to be on the boat for scuba diving. She was all ready for our dogs. She sent us the cutest videos and pictures through out the day. Made my husband and I feel very secure and comfortable.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I had a great experience. Lesley was amazing with Nova and sent me photos of her throughout the day. She was also flexible with my early drop off time. Thank you!”

Mariah N.

“We had a wonderful experience with Christie and Daniel. They were excellent communicators and sent adorable video updates throughout the day. It was clear they truly love dogs. We also appreciated that our pup had the chance to interact with both doggy friends and their kids, which made for a fun and enriching environment. We would recommend and book them again. Thanks Christie and Daniel!”

“My dog Oma was so calm after spending the day with Elizabeth and her dogs. She was well cared for 💛”

Molly M.

“Melissa is amazing! Our pup took to her instantly and seemed happy and comfortable really quickly. Mellisa is great about sending pictures and a little report card at the end of a stay. She is a kind, organized and it’s obvious how good she is with animals! Highly, highly recommend her!!”

Brittany S.

“Chris was great! Super flexible to work with and sent plenty of update pictures and videos showing me how much fun Pickles was having! I will definitely be using him again next time I’m in town!”

About: If you know me, you know I love animals! My first job was working at PetsMart PetsHotel! From the tiniest frog to the biggest Great Dane, I love them all. I have 3 dogs of my own, 1 snake and 1 desert tortoise. In our home, we love all creatures big and small. I currently work from home with flexible hours to accommodate varying schedules. I have 2 kiddos of my own in school and a postal worker husband Safety and care are the biggest priorities in my opinion! I understand the importance of taking care of a pet as a member of the family!

“Very nice young woman! My Ranger seemed very calm and relaxed in her home when I went to pick him up. He is just a young pup and she was able to manage him. I was really happy with her quick response to my last minute request, it was a life saver! Would recommend!”
