About: With over 10 years of professional pet care experience, I provide knowledgeable, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. My background includes managing the Canine Behavior Department at the Humane Society, where I specialized in working with fearful, reactive shelter dogs. I also led the New Beginnings program, teaching incarcerated men how to safely handle and train dogs preparing for adoption. In addition to pet sitting and daycare experience, I have veterinary technician experience caring for both dogs and cats, giving me a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I’ve trained dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments using patient, positive methods focused on building trust and confidence. Whether your pet needs structured training, extra patience, medical awareness, or simply loving care while you’re away, I bring experience, reliability, and genuine passion to every animal I work with. I am available full-time to care for your fur babies, which allows me to give them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day and night. Don’t worry about your pets having to leave their familiar environment or stray from their routine. I provide personalized care, training, and enrichment for your pets in the comfort of their own home, helping them stay happy, relaxed, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends animals for at least 5 years with no issues. I’ve fed, walked, bathed, loved and snuggled many friends and family members animals as well as my own I am primarily a stay at home wife with a wide range of availability. We do take a few various trips throughout the year but I do my best to keep my schedule updated! I care for the pets at their own home as I find this easier on them being in their own environment. I follow schedules my client leaves for me regarding walks, feeding, sleep/bedtime routines, etc. Play time and snuggle time are always included with lots of love given as if they are my own
“I couldn’t ask for a better sitter than Mizuki. She goes above and beyond and is the sweetest person. She really loves animals ❤️. Highly recommend and I will be booking with her again if I ever need.”
“Madison was so sweet with my baby! My pet is super shy, but Madison was very patient with her and they ended up playing together a bit on the last day! Also super communicative and reassuring. Also left everything cleaner than it was before. Would definitely book with Madison again! (:”
About: I’ve cared for thousands of pets in the last 20 years and have pets of my own. I volunteer at the Humane Society, and rescue only. I’ve cared for for all kinds of pets and show patience, kindness, responsibility, and active engagement. Clear and regular communication with flexibility. I’d love to care for you and yours! Caring for pets brings me so much joy. I build my schedule around my commitments to others and enjoying my life. I’m flexible as each client has their own needs and things can change. I care for your pets in your home. Years past I provided daycare and boarding in my home for many. My pets are a priority too, so now I do visits.
“Steve did wonderfully with our two cats! So much so even the more reserved one of the pair made some appearances. I felt that all of our instructions were followed perfectly and it put our minds at ease during our trip with limited access to internet.”
“THANK YOU! Alison was wonderful! We couldn't have asked for a better siter for our Magellan while we were away for the holidays. She made she he was clean fed and cuddled! We loved the extra photos and videos. We especially enjoyed the extra pics of our outside kitties. Alison was great at following out sort of weird instructions and even brought in our mail!! Thank you SO much, Alison! You'll be at the top of our list next time we have to go out of town.”
“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.”

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!
Isabella was a joy to see each morning when she came to give Bentley his shot. She was punctual and kind to our dogs. Bentley can be very wiggly when getting his shot and eye cream but Isabella was patient and persistent in getting the job done.We would highly recommend her.
Victoria is awesome! Her love and care for all critters is very clear, and helping animals seems to be a real calling for her. She is super responsive, very attentive, and she prioritized our dog’s best interests and our instructions. Rosie is going through a lot with recovering from surgery and lots of change at home and I’ve been so worried about how sad she has seemed. After hanging with Victoria, our Rosie was noticeably brighter and happier, which made our day. We plan to book as much as we can with Victoria.
Michaela is a 10 out of 10 and I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you have dogs with big personalities or anxiety. I have two dogs, one is reactive and one is really nervous around new people, so finding someone I trust is not easy. Before we even started regular visits, Michaela was willing to do an extra visit just so my girls 🐶 could get comfortable with her. She did not have to do that, and it made such a huge difference. On top of that, she showed up in the rain, and my dogs absolutely hate the rain. She still got both of them outside to use the bathroom, kept them calm, and stayed the full visit. The report card she left was so detailed and thoughtful it genuinely made my day. She just really does whatever it takes to make them feel safe and comfortable and you can tell she actually cares. If your dogs need a little extra patience, she is your person. Book her!
Catherine is an amazing sitter for my anxious little chihuahua! I am a little particular about her care when I’m away and Catherine follows every little instruction with detail and care. She sends specific updates and pictures to keep me looped in, which I greatly appreciate! I would definitely book with her again!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Tucson stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Tucson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
