About: I have fostered 8 dogs for PACC (so far!) and helped them find homes. Caring for dogs of ages, temperaments and needs has taught me so much. I have experience with both dogs and cats (and birds and fish!). I work as a substitute teacher, giving me flexibility to take pet-sitting jobs on short notice. I am also available for overnight pet-sitting in the greater Tucson area. As a dog foster, I have learned to be exceptionally careful with new dogs. Respecting their space, while being friendly and encouraging. Taking extra precautions when leaving the house or letting them out into the yard. I understand that change and new people can be stressful to a dog and am careful to avoid additional stressors. I feel immense responsibility for the pets in my care, as well as other pets and people we encounter on walks. I also want the dogs to have fun and relax when we are at home. I really enjoy getting to know new dogs and hope they see me as a new friend ☺️
About: I have been around animals for my entire life, mostly dogs! I have pet sit for neighbors and family friends since I was young, and have been working professionally with animals for about one year, feeding, training, coaching, and shanking animals in shelter, daycare, and boarding environments all ranging from pets ages newborn to elderly. I have the most experience with dogs, but I do have experience with cats and a love for both. I am a full time student, however, my classes are all online so I am available to work from any location at any time. I have open availability currently and can take care pets at any time! Although I live in a smaller apartment, my complex is gated and completely friendly to pets, and my unit is directly outside of a private dog park for residents only! Your pets will have plenty of toys and room to run around and have fun here. Should I be taking care of your pets at your own residence, it is another priority of mine to ensure your space is respected and kept clean, and I have experience as a professional kennel technician and cleaner to ensure any messes that occur from your pets will be handled efficiently.
“Maggie was an absolute dream to work with! She went above and beyond to make sure she knew the laying the land and sent us lots of pictures to show what a great time our fur babies were having with her. Will definitely be asking her to come back soon!”
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs of all sizes, so I’m very comfortable handling different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also helped care for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs, giving me experience with different routines and environments. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. With a part-time schedule consisting of short shifts a few days a week, I’m able to offer flexible and attentive pet care. I have ample availability to maintain your dog’s routine and provide consistent supervision, exercise, and companionship. I always prioritize a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific preferences or needs. I make sure dogs are always supervised, kept in secure environments, and never put in situations where they could feel unsafe or overwhelmed. I also have a small fenced grass section outside of my house! In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and maintain their dog’s normal routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, and I’ll adjust care based on what each dog needs—whether that’s more playtime, exercise, or just a calm presence. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“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: I’d love to help out all fellow pet owners! I currently have 3 dogs and one cat who I love dearly, so I’m pretty familiar with pet care. I’d love to share my love for animals and sit your own furry friends. I’m good with puppies, kittens, and senior care. I have one senior dog myself and two dogs who are 3 years old and a 1 and a half year old cat. I’m currently a college student with plenty of time to spend with your furry friends. My schedule is very flexible so I’m willing to watch your pets whenever needed!! I can easily provide any sort of care needed for your pet. Feeding, walking, crating, giving them some love are all easy for me to do. The only experience I don’t have is giving any sort of medication to pets.
“Not sure I can say enough positive things about Emma. Each time she cares for our dog we know he is in great hands and he’s smiling like the goofball he is in all of the pics she sends.”
“Colby is amazing, our dog loves her, he is a very anxious dog so he doesn’t get along with a lot of people but he immediately took a liking for Colby as soon as he met her. She takes care of him so well when we are away.”
About: I have worked in the pet care industry for over 7 years as a pet groomer, bather, and kennel tech. I particularly enjoy working with senior and special needs pets, and I have experience working with a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to mice and ferrets. Long-term, I am going back to school to pursue an advanced degree in animal behavior, and to become a certified applied animal behaviorist, which means using what I've learned about how animals communicate and behave to improve their relationships with people. I currently have full-time availability, which means I am able to work around your busy schedule! Whether you need someone to stop by for a mid-afternoon potty break or a house-sitter for a week, I am available! I believe consistency and routine is key to helping your fur baby feel comfortable while you're gone. If they are used to going out at a certain time and then eating breakfast, I want to make sure there are as few changes to their schedule as possible. I also want you to feel as comfortable as possible, which means picture and text updates as often as you'd like!
About: I officially joined Rover this year, but I bring hands-on experience from volunteering with PACC as a dog walker and Pawjama Party participant, and fostering kittens and cats during my school breaks. I’ve also cared for my parents’ dog. I have a friendly 25 lb female dog and a cat, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and understand their routines and needs. What sets me apart is my patience, especially with shy or rescue pets who need extra time to feel safe. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel secure and cared for. 🐾 Loving Pet Sitter Available! 🐾 Weekdays: I work from home as an online teacher, so your pets won’t be alone.

About: I am a huge animal lover with extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats, having lived with them most of my life! I currently have a dog of my own and take her on long walks twice daily. I love playing with dogs during the day, and keeping cats company with pats if they are interested. I’m currently a part-time student, so I have lots of time to drop by and care for your pets! Available during weekday mornings (Monday through Friday). I provide trustworthy in-home and out-of-home service, where I will take your dog out for a walk and to go potty, keep them company with play, and can provide training services too.
“Leticia did great with my two dogs and one cat! She sent photos at every drop in and met with us before starting to go over our details and meet the pets. Highly recommend!”
“Josie is awesome! She has dropped in and visited our poodle puppy a few times now and has always been so flexible with time and does a thorough job caring for our puppy during the day when we can't stop home over lunch. She always gives us a full report on how the visit went, and our puppy and her seem to get along great. Would highly recommend working with Josie!”
About: I’ve been watching and caring for pets since I was little and have always had a love for animals. I’ve been taking care of neighbors and friends pets for years without any issues. I also have two fur babies of my own who receive plenty of walks, attention, and affection, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets as well. I’m currently enrolled at the University of Arizona studying medicine, and I’ve taken several animal related classes simply because of my passion for animals. I’m a very patient, reliable, and attentive person who will treat your pet with the same care and love as my own. I’m currently a student at the University of Arizona studying medicine and im very free in the afternoons and nights to care for pets. And my schedule is free for the weekends to care for animals. I am very attentive and patient when it comes to caring for animals. I try to be observant to my dogs behaviors to see if soemthing is off and I try to keep a decently consistent schedule with feeding and potty breaks. I also make sure they have enough water especially in Arizona heat.
“Kathryn was great! She was accommodating when my travel plans changed and took great care of my cat while I was away. The detailed report cards and pictures were really appreciated. I would definitely use Kathryn again.”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats all of my childhood. I also have experience with many types animal personalities and the needs that come with them! I have a very flexible schedule so I can provide all the attention that your animal may need! With communication I can work with what schedule you have in mind for your animals care! I do have a backyard and a playful 5 year old dog who is energetic and loves to play with others dogs. He also loves his sun naps.
“Marikate was awesome! Extremely friendly and loved our kitty well. We had a change in travel plans and she was very flexible and helpful to make sure our pet was well taken care of. Will definitely use her again”
Tucson dog parents share their Rover experiences
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.
So grateful my little man is being taken care by Erica!! She is so thorough and always makes sure they have the best time together. Erica has been really patient as he gets to know her. I can tell Pascual trusts her and is excited when he gets to see 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!
Lillian is the best dog carer ever. She is kind, organized, punctual, has a great sense of humor. Most important though, she has incredibly deep expertise and experience with dogs. She understands them as someone who's trained and shown, and I have taken great comfort in knowing that Mumford is in truly expert hands. Can't recommend her highly enough.
