“Maggie went above and beyond! My kitty Pudgy clearly loved spending time with her, and Maggie spent the time to get to understand her and how to trick her into taking her pills (hero!). I came home to a clean house and a happy kitty.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for many of my senior relatives as well as watched pets of my family friends for weeks at a time. I am a student at the university and so I am figuring out my schedule more based around you! I am available 5 days a week and very broad hours. I am incredibly willing to work with any particulars or needs your pet may have. I will make sure to take care of your home if I am petsitting and make it as stress free for you as possible.
About: I've taken care of dogs for most of my life, having a dog since I was 4 to taking care of friends dogs, families dogs, and including my own. I would take them on walks and feed them and clean them, and generally get along with them. I love all animals and dogs are so loving and friendly so I enjoys dogs a lot. I am currently looking to make some money during this summer as I need a flexible source of income due to my running training for different sports. I can walk or take care of a dog from anytime from 8am-5pm, and am very flexible with amount of time walking. My house I dog proofed, as we used to own dogs ourself. A large wall surrounding our front yard to prevent the dog from running, along with all the supplies needed to take care of a dog.
“Alex did a great job with our two little dogs! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and the dogs were happy when we got home. Would definitely book them again in a heartbeat.”
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: Both me and my boyfriend have grown up on farms and been surrounded by animals our entire lives. We were both on the veterinarian track until partly through undergrad so have hundreds of hours of experience in vet clinics, pet hospitals, and farms. We were raised with dogs, cats, cows, horses, etc. We would love to shower your beloved pet with all of our combined animal love! Mason works full time remote and Lauren has a very flexible schedule and we both have extensive experience with all animals from youngsters to our beloved seniors. We have a 1 year old corgi, blue heeler mix named Sabino who we have raised as a puppy and loved the process of training her to be a happy, loving dog. She is super friendly and crate trained but we will want to have her meet your pup before confirming the boarding to make sure all dogs can be safely boarded together! :) Mason works from home full time and Lauren has a flexible schedule that allows for plenty of walk and some hikes and adventures if your pup is up for that! We have a 1 year old corgi/blue heeler mix named Sabino who is spayed and very dog friendly. She has love every dog we have watched and met. We live in an extremely dog friendly apartment, with a dog park within the complex right outside of our building. Our apartment is well suited for an animal of any needs. We are animal lovers to our core so will ensure your dog is well loved. We are avid hikers and walkers and would love to get your animal as much exercise as they like!
About: I’ve had furry friends my entire life, and have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was 13. Pet sitting is not just a hobby for me but passion that started my own childhood home. Having dogs in my own home, and thinking how I’d want a sitter to treat my doggie, I will be sending lots of photos, having clear communication with owner, and always be available to call if the owner needs to contact me on a doggie matter. I can take care of furry friends nearly everyday out of the week, although I am currently in collage and my schedule is Mondays and Tuesdays from 8:15 to 2:45. I do not have any pets at my house, so if your furry friend does not do well with other dogs it’s a perfect fit. If a dog is quite energetic and social we will go on lots of walkies to tire them out so there not missing out!
About: Hi, I’m Charlotte (Carly)! I am a remote grant writer, which means I work from home and have a flexible schedule that leaves plenty of time for walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’ve had cats my entire life and have shared the last seven years with my blue heeler, Dudley, so I’m comfortable with everything from independent felines to high energy dogs who need lots of exercise and attention. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a drop-in visit, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your routines for feeding, medication, and anything else that keeps your pet comfortable. I work an incredibly flexible, remote schedule. I set my own hours and can fit visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day, including midday breaks that are hard for many sitters to offer. When I care for your pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I will follow your house rules, clean up after every visit, and leave everything just as I found it.
About: With three cattle dog pups of my own, I’m no stranger to high energy days, big personalities, and the occasional case of the zoomies! I’ve cared for my dogs for over four years and have even become an honorary godparent to many of my friends’ pets. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Over the years, pet care has become a natural part of my daily routine. I’m used to making time for walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of cuddles throughout the day and now have the flexibility in my schedule to do a whole lot more! When I’m caring for your pets in their home, I want them to feel as comfortable and loved as they do with you. This means sticking to their usual routines, getting to know their unique personalities, what they enjoy, and all the companionship they could need. I love to keep everyone updated with lots of photos, videos, and messages through each visit to ensure the best care is being provided.
“Tanya is amazing! She does so well with my 2 very different temperament pups. She is extremely responsive, even to my many last minute requests. I have used her many times and plan to keep doing so!”
About: I have experience taking care of boarding dogs and cats at an animal hospital. I worked for them for a little over a year and have gotten lots of experience with dogs and cats. I used to raise puppies and train them how to sit and have manners for about two years with my parent. I have dog sitting experience and house sitting experience. I also want to note that I am a full time college student, my schedule is below for more information. Just keep scrolling and you will see “schedule” section. Thank you :) I am currently going to school at the UofA full time during the weekdays (my class schedule is listed below keep reading) and would be available most days to come and play with the animals for 30 minutes to an hour in the afternoons and overnight sitting. And on weekends I would be free to play with and walk the animals as needed. Class schedule: Mon 1pm-2pm Tue 9:30am-1pm then 3pm-5pm Wed 9am-2pm then 4pm-5pm Thur 9:30am-4pm Fri 1pm-2pm I do also have a job at the animal shelter for part time. That work schedule will vary but will be no more the 4-6 hours a day. Likely to be on the weekends to avoid conflict with school :) For my personal home, I will not be able to board any pets. Although I am very safe and responsible. My person pet uses a crate just for her safety when I am gone. I am good with crate training as needed for your pets as well. I make sure I clean up after every day and leave the house as clean as I can before you arrive back home to your happy animals!
“Colby was super kind & responsive, giving our cat all the love and cuddles she needed while we were gone. We really appreciated the detailed updates and pictures. Will definitely book again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for them since I was young, so being around them feels natural to me. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving their dogs attention and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I wanted to become a Conservation Biologist at one point of my life instead I went into Public Health! My schedule is flexible, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I'm a PhD student and do a lot of work from home. Live close to campus. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment in my pet-friendly apartment, with access to a small yard and nearby Himmel Park for regular walks and exercise. I carefully follow all care instructions, monitor pets closely, and ensure they feel secure and comfortable at all times. I'm a traveler and can't have my own pets but a temporary pet companion is always welcome and adored!
“She was absolutely amazing!!! I’ve had a couple sitters off this app and Melissa is by far the best! She definitely went that extra mile Everett visit. Played with Luna and sent such detailed reports after. Highly highly highly recommend!!!! And she left some treats and a little toy when she left. So sweet!!”
“Yelena was great with my pup! He needed some love while I was out for a long day and everything went very smoothly. He was quick to warm up to her on our meet-and-greet, and I got plenty of pictures during her quick visit. It was nice not having to worry about my dog while I was out!”
“Kailey took great care of my pack. We had an emergency come up mid-trip and they were more than willing to adjust on the fly and add days which really saved us! We will absolutely use them again.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Tucson is $20

Adriane was fantastic as usual! She was able to check on our pup while we celebrated a big event. I wasn’t worried about Clove at all because I knew she was in such great hands. Adriane was able to provide love and comfort to Clove while we were away and from the photos she sent you can tell Clove enjoyed herself. Would easily book Adriane again.
We had such an amazing experience having Caitlin watch our two dogs while we were away! She was incredibly detail-oriented, attentive, and thoughtful throughout our entire trip. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We especially appreciated how frequently she sent updates, photos, and little check-ins. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing exactly how our pups were doing while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and treated them like her own. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs made it obvious how wonderful of a sitter she was. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, communicative, and genuinely invested in their pets. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter!
Mya did an amazing job with our pups! They’re a little anxious/high strung, but she was very intuitive with them and has a naturally calming energy that helped them be at ease right away. We are always nervous to leave our babies with someone new, but she is so good with them and communicative with us, which really gives us peace of mind. She was also very generous with her time, taking extra care to go out of her way to do a meet and greet and get to know them before we left. I would highly recommend Mya to anyone looking for kind, compassionate care for their pups. Mya is punctual, responsible, and skilled at what she does. It is clearly more than just a job for her, and you can tell she really cares. Thank you Mya!!
She was amazing! Pictures and notes every visit! She let me know everything going on, sent me pictures of not only my pup but of how the house looked, picked up after my clumsy dog and was on top of communication! I absolutely recommend Carmen and will use her again if I’m out of town!

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
