“Michelle and her husband are wonderful. They helped me out in a pinch and more importantly, they are very responsible and caring dog handlers. They are great people and I felt very comfortable with them taking good care of my little guy.”

“I’ve booked with this family twice and my baby loves them. When I drop him off he just forgets I exist lol. I’m always nervous about leaving JB with someone because he is a mouthy boy with personality. He fits right in and causes chaos. Your baby will be well taken care of with Seth and Connie.”

“Lara was amazing to work with. Zeke had a great time with her and he was very happy and well taken care of. Lara sent me several pictures while we were gone which was very thoughtful.”

“Cashmere was well taken care of by Ana. My little dog got to play with Ana’s little dog. The socialization was great. Cashmere was taken on walks in the neighborhood. Ana did a great job communicating to me on a regular basis. She sent pictures and video often. We had a god experience.”

“Christie and Daniel worked around our crazy schedule to take care of Scarlett. They were awesome with her and loved the pictures and videos they sent. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Peach stayed with Sara and family for 2 weeks this time and she was happy as a clam when I picked her up. Peach is very timid but always excited when we pull up to Sara’s house and usually disappears before I can say goodbye. Sara is a gem and I am so grateful to have found her.”


“Richard & Jeanette are very friendly and trustworthy! I have total peace of mind when I travel because I know my dog is being well cared for. Lola loves spending time in their home...from playing catch to snuggles...she receives a lot of love and attention! 🐾💕”

“Kimberly took amazing care of our pup! Despite being a big weenie, Quentin felt comfortable enough to start demanding cuddles and joining in on chill time on the couch.”

“Rocco's fourth and longest stay with Andreah was great. She worked with us to resolve a small issue in timing between her schedule and our travel plans so we could board Rocco with her.”

“Hoshi and Duncan love it at Beth’s. They spent 11 days with her and were well-care for and happy when I picked them up. I’ll be booking with her again soon!”

“Katarina was a great host to my dog Reily. She shared videos and photos, was communicative and most importantly, my do was happy when we picked her up. Thank you Katarina.”

“What a great time for my dog Corky! He made fast friends with Cannoli and Lily. Ron was very flexible, excellent throughout the week taking care of Corky sending multiple updates/pictures and staying in touch throughout. Corky clearly enjoyed his stay, I will without a doubt be returning in the future.”

“Antonio took great care of our pup. He was very easy to communicate with and provided updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. We would definitely use him again to watch our pup and recommend him.”

“Brynna B. delivered an outstanding experience from start to finish! Her exceptional communication and thoughtful updates instantly put my mind at ease. She consistently shared the sweetest messages and adorable photos of my Charlie girl, who truly seemed to be living her best life—enjoying long walks, playtime, and all the love she could wish for. It truly felt like a retreat vacation for Charlie! Brynna’s dog, Banks, was the perfect playmate for her. As a social pup, Charlie thrived having a new friend to frolic with, and it warmed my heart to see how well they bonded. Brynna’s attention to detail, kindness, and genuine care went above and beyond my expectations. I couldn’t imagine a better experience for either of us. Without a doubt, I’ll be rebooking Brynna in the future and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Choosing Brynna means peace of mind for you and pure joy for your pet—truly a 10/10 experience!”

“Gail was absolutely fantastic with my Nugget over spring break! She was attentive, kind, and incredibly experienced. There was never a moment where I felt that worried for Nugget. He warmed up to her right away, which I think shows how affectionate and caring she is with the pets she cares for. Throughout the stay, I got regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely trust her again with Nugget.”

“Oh my gosh, Debra and Dennis were fantastic! Our Tootsie dog was their lone boarder, was walked twice a day, and provided with undivided attention. They were concerned and caring with her senior status and comfortable providing her meds. She was happy and contented when we came to pick her up.”

“Elizabeth was very friendly and kind. She has a lovely home and a great backyard space. She communicated well and was very responsive. I would recommend her and be happy to have her watch my dog again.”

“Griselda was amazing with our two rescue kitties. This was our first time having her tale care of them and ahe took the time to come over before hand to meet the cats and have them get to know her as well. It was clear that she truly cares about animals. We look forward to having her watch them again in the future.”


About: a lot of the families i was hired for were mainly dogs but majority of them also had cats! while they were mainly focused on the dogs because they typically need more care, i was also focused on learning about the cats as well! i also live with a couple of rescue cats currently!

“Wonderful and always communicated and sent pictures. Have already rebooked with her. Cant say thanks enough for her willingness to drive to a decent remote area of Arizona to help with my dog and cat. It takes a lot of stress off regarding my busy schedule.”


“Melayna did a great job caring for my cat and home while I was away. My kitty is very shy at first and Melayna was patient and sweet, and brought him out of his shell. The house was just as I had left it. Fantastic experience and I look forward to having Melayna stay again. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been dedicated to animal care for as long as I can remember — from volunteering at shelters as a kid to professionally walking dogs and advocating for animal welfare throughout my life. I bring more than just experience; I bring heart. I’m especially skilled with both puppy care and senior pets, understanding their unique needs, whether it’s gentle guidance for the young ones or extra patience and support for older companions. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and enriching environment tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. Every animal in my care is treated like family — with compassion, consistency, and a whole lot of love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a student with classes only on Saturdays, I have a flexible schedule during the week and weekends, making me readily available for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so whether it's part of my morning routine or winding down in the evening, I’m always happy to make time for quality care, play, and companionship. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to help them feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I take the time to understand each pet’s specific needs — from feeding schedules and exercise routines to any medications or special instructions. I keep things clean, calm, and comfortable, and I always respect your space as if it were my own. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they’re used to — and lots of love, too. Regular updates and photos are always part of the package, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away.

“Talon did an excellent job looking after Cheeto for us. I would highly recommend Talon to anyone needing a cat sitter and will definitely use Talon the next time I need someone to stay with Cheeto.”
“Ashley is simply wonderful! My cat really loves her and she’s a breath of fresh air when it comes to providing for your kitty while you are away. Thank you, Ashley for everything you do!”

“Reagan is happy, tired, and beaming after her day with her favorite people and pups. And I am her happy person knowing she had another day of fun and exceptional care. Reagan is always happy and confident after her time with Christie, Daniel, and their family, and we can’t wait until our next play day in a few weeks.”

“What a great family! We did a drop off day care with them. Coco's tail was wagging away when we arrived, she knew she was in for some fun. They were so easy to communicate with, and you can tell that they all love pups. We were very happy with Coco's stay - we will definitely ask them again. Thank you Seth and Connie”

“Very positive experience for us and the pups. Great environment for both physical and mental stimulation for the pups. Lara clearly a knowledgeable and caring dog and animal lover. Lara kept us in the loop with pictures and commentary throughout the day. You can’t go wrong with Lara and family watching over your pups.”

I pride myself on being available to the dogs and a present pet parent. I work from home and your pet will be included in my day to day activities as if it were my own. I am very attentive caring and sensitive to the needs of my pets which in turn will make me sensitive to the needs of your pet. The pets in my home are cared for as family, they get free reign of the house, they have full access to my back yard and they are not left alone in the back yard.

I have owned my own pet sitting business for 12 years Pets are my life. They always come as my number one priority and yours will as well! Every day revolves around the animals and pets first.

“Our little Coco had a GREAT day with Brynna. We had a last minute need for daycare and she was so nice to do a quick meet and greet the day before. Brynna is amazing with communication and response time. You can immediately tell that she LOVES all pups. Ours is just 11 months old and very busy and active and Brynna dove in and enjoyed it all. Her home is perfect inside and out for the pups and she really took the time to make it special for our Coco. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Brynna”

“We were dealing with severe separation anxiety with our boy Winston when we started looking for a day care option for when we were at work. Lynda, Roberto, and Maria were absolutely fantastic with our doggie. They have been extremely accommodating with pick up and drop off times. They provide a very safe and loving environment for Winston to sleep and play in each day. They have great communication and we love receiving pictures throughout the day from them of what our boy is up to. Winston loves their home so much, he hardly wants to leave at the end of the day. They have been very adaptable to both our needs and the needs of our greyhound and are very knowledgeable about many breeds. Very kind and welcoming family. My partner and I couldn’t be happier that we found them!”
“Sara took excellent care of my pup. She was friendly and communicative, sending adorable picture updates of my pup on walks, playing outside, and comfortably relaxing on the sofa. Her kids and sweet golden, Skylar, were great companions and provided the exercise and interaction I was hoping for. I’d happily book Sara again. Thank you, Sara!”

“Kat has taken care of my large dog on multiple occasions, always treating him with love and patience. He is loving but excitable, and Kat always knows how to calm him and provide him a happy space.”

About: 50 plus years owning dogs and cats. I am skilled in medicating ill dogs. I am an avid dog lover and enjoy competing in AKC events with my dogs. I am a dog show judge of sporting dogs. I currently own 1 Vizsla. I am fully retired now and I am loving it. I have a very flexible schedule and I am often available for last minute requests. We have a fully fenced yard and a sideyard with two security gates. We always are physically present when our dog is let outside. Always.
“Beth is incredibly flexible and communicative. Her home is filled with fun, adorable animals. The meet and greet went wonderfully, as she was welcoming and gave us a tour of her place. We're glad to have found her, especially since she's so close by.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. I finally adopted my own 13 years ago as puppies and rescued 2 in 2021. They are all senior dogs now with special needs- diet and medical. My one is diabetic and requires 2 injections a day. They all take medication and follow a schedule. I work from home which allows me to care for my four dogs. I have the ability to help others at this time and would love to make sure their pets are well cared for. I know how challenging it was to find care for our boys when I didn’t work from home. I care for someone’s pet as they ask me too and as I do my own. No feeding food they aren’t allowed (treats that aren’t authorized), hand feeding if necessary, plenty of potty breaks in the backyard to run (my dogs prance) and roll in the grass. I have beds and blankets for them to choose from and cuddle time on the sofa too.
About: My mom and step dad are retired veterinarians so I've helped take care of animals my whole life. I've had my own little Shih Tzu mix for 15 years. I'm not currently working outside the home so other than spending some time with my grandchildren, I'm devoting all my time to the care of animals. I have a large fenced yard. My 2 friendly 2 year old Shih Tzus, and 10yr old cat will keep your furry friend company while they visit.
“Tasha and Geordie had a great time at Elizabeth's. This was our first time ever getting a sitter for our dogs so we were a little bit nervous. Elizabeth's warm and easy going attitude immediately put us at ease. It was also great to get a tour of her home so we could see where the dogs would be hanging out. She also sent us photos of them playing. Would definitely book with her again!”

“We left our Chihuahua Jack Russell mix with Barbara for a whole long day while we came to town to attended a graduation. We were apprehensive about leaving our baby anywhere mostly because he can be kinda crazy lol but she instantly made us feel very comfortable from the moment we walked in the door. You can tell that she genuinely loves dogs and is very comfortable with them. Her home is very inviting and secure and just perfect for four-legged friends. There were two other "guests" there and I kind of felt like I was leaving him at a little doggy party. He seemed happy from the get-go so that made us happy to leave him there. She was also very flexible with our time to drop off and pick up. And very easy to communicate with sending us pictures throughout the day. Her rate was great too! I would highly recommend Barbara and we'll definitely use her again again if the need arises! Thanks for loving Henry for us yesterday Barbara!”

About: Why Rover: Growing up with pets my whole life, I know much we love our animals. I have two dogs of my own, have fostered over 200 puppies through Home2Home STL, have trained two service dogs over the span of two years, and there is nothing I would rather do in my free time than spend it with pets! About Me: I am 21 years old and I recently moved to from St. Louis to Tucson. I am a full time student pursuing a degree in marketing. In March of 2026, with the help of Arizona State University, I was able to create my initiative titled "Speak For Those Who Can't" with the mission of helping local shelters and educating the public on unhomed dogs in Pima County. Professional Experience I am currently employed at a senior living facility. During my time in St. Louis I worked at McCready Law and was Team Lead at Everbowl. I have also been a professional nanny and have extensive childcare experience and certifications. I am trustworthy, hardworking, and responsible--but importantly, I will care for your pets as if they were my own. Feel free to check out my gallery to see images of my own dogs as well as some that I have cared for, and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! As a college student completing my degree online, I have a fairly flexible schedule. I understand that every pet is different, and that they like to stick to their routine-especially if their owner is away. Whatever your pet needs (specific feeding times, their favorite walking route, toys, etc.) I will be able to provide! In my home, I own two dogs- one pug (Bella) and one lab (Penny.) For their safety I do not bring client's animals into my home, but since I own my own dogs, I know how important it is to trust whoever is taking care of them. When letting someone into your home and around your animals, I understand first-hand how important safety is on both ends. I have nannied and pet sat professionally since I was 16 and am now 21, and I can assure you that safety and respect for your pets and your home are my top priority.
About: With 30+ years of life with cats & dogs, I bring calm, loving, experienced care tailored to each dog or cat’s unique needs. I pay close attention to routines, energy levels, and personalities, whether that means long walks, slow strolls, playtime, or quiet companionship. My goal is for your cat or dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for, not just watched, while you’re away. I own my own business and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because I’m in control of my day, dogs/cats get consistent attention, timely walks, meals on schedule, and plenty of companionship, never long stretches alone. This allows me to truly adapt to each dog’s/cat’s routine, energy level, and individual needs. I’m happy to care for your dog/cat in the comfort of your own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow your routines closely, i.e. walks, meals, medications, and playtime, so your dog’s/cats’s day stays familiar while you’re away. Being in their own space helps reduce stress and keeps things calm and comfortable.

About: Lifelong owner of Aussies and Goldens with experience sitting Labs, Collies, and Shih Tzus. Currently dog-free and eager for a "dog fix" through reliable care! Working from home, I offer flexible morning, midday, or evening visits. Because I have a remote schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. Since I don't currently have a dog of my own, these visits provide my much-needed 'dog fix' and serve as the perfect reason to step away from my desk and get active. Whether it's a brisk morning walk to start the day, a midday potty break, or evening companionship, I have the time and dedication to prioritize your pet's routine. My schedule allows me to be consistent and reliable, ensuring your pup gets the attention they deserve exactly when they need it.
About: I have grown up taking care of multiple dogs, including labs, shitzus, & now recently a golden doodle! I also have my own pup- Winston! He is a 2 year old Aussiedoodle. He is high energy and I did all of his training since he was a puppy. I am available most days morning to evening. I am not currently working as I just got back from backpacking South America.

I will make sure that your instructions/preferences are adhered to and that everything is handled to your satisfaction and expectations.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and genuinely love being around animals. I’ve raised my own dogs since they were puppies for the past 5 years, and for the last 2 years I’ve also house sat and walked dogs for other families. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, overnight care, and keeping pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I love getting to know every dog’s personality and treating them like family 🐾 I have open availability throughout the summer since school is out, which makes me very flexible and reliable for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and pet care. I’m able to give pets lots of attention, consistency, and care, and I’m committed to being dependable for both pets and their owners. If I’m house sitting, I’m very responsible and respectful of your home. I make sure to leave everything exactly how I found it while keeping your pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for both your pets and your home, and I always work to create a safe and reliable experience for owners and their animals.
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and understood, and I take the time to learn their individual preferences, sensitivities, and quirks. Whether your pet needs structured play, slow-paced walks, medication given on schedule, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to fit visits, drop-ins, and walks around my classes, and I always make sure I have dedicated time to give each pet the attention they need. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep feeding areas clean, tidy up any messes, and make sure the space is safe before I leave. I’m detail-oriented and safety-focused, and I never rush through visits—I want every pet to feel cared for, not just “checked on.”

“I’ve booked with this family twice and my baby loves them. When I drop him off he just forgets I exist lol. I’m always nervous about leaving JB with someone because he is a mouthy boy with personality. He fits right in and causes chaos. Your baby will be well taken care of with Seth and Connie.”

“Lara was amazing to work with. Zeke had a great time with her and he was very happy and well taken care of. Lara sent me several pictures while we were gone which was very thoughtful.”

“Christie and Daniel worked around our crazy schedule to take care of Scarlett. They were awesome with her and loved the pictures and videos they sent. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Peach stayed with Sara and family for 2 weeks this time and she was happy as a clam when I picked her up. Peach is very timid but always excited when we pull up to Sara’s house and usually disappears before I can say goodbye. Sara is a gem and I am so grateful to have found her.”

“Rocco's fourth and longest stay with Andreah was great. She worked with us to resolve a small issue in timing between her schedule and our travel plans so we could board Rocco with her.”

“Antonio took great care of our pup. He was very easy to communicate with and provided updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. We would definitely use him again to watch our pup and recommend him.”

“Gail was absolutely fantastic with my Nugget over spring break! She was attentive, kind, and incredibly experienced. There was never a moment where I felt that worried for Nugget. He warmed up to her right away, which I think shows how affectionate and caring she is with the pets she cares for. Throughout the stay, I got regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely trust her again with Nugget.”

“Oh my gosh, Debra and Dennis were fantastic! Our Tootsie dog was their lone boarder, was walked twice a day, and provided with undivided attention. They were concerned and caring with her senior status and comfortable providing her meds. She was happy and contented when we came to pick her up.”

“Elizabeth was very friendly and kind. She has a lovely home and a great backyard space. She communicated well and was very responsive. I would recommend her and be happy to have her watch my dog again.”

“What a wonderful experience we had with Dave and Becky! Lots of pictures, stories, and adventures! We knew she would be very happy in their beautiful home and huge backyard! She will miss the squirrels and helping Dave with the new floors though! :) So very grateful we found Dave and Becky and will definitely use their services again!!”

“Ashley was absolutely incredible. Constant updates and very helpful with pickup/dropoff with my schedule. I felt very comfortable that my pup was in great hands the whole time I was away.”

“Loren was fantastic! She was very accommodating and patient, and wrote beautiful check-ins to help us feel comfortable while away from our pups! One of our pooches was not the best-behaved and Loren was very calm and reassuring.”

“She was so fantastic and Korra seemed to have a great time while I was gone! ? she responded very fast when I asked about Korra and when I booked her for the stay. Highly recommend!”

“Moosie always loves his stays with Vicky. We’ve used her several times now! She always has great communication and I appreciate her attention to the small details. Thanks for everything, Vicky! Until next time.”


“We needed someone to watch our older dog while we were away for a week. Being new to the area we really didn't know anyone and we wanted our dog to be in a home environment where she wouldn't be alone. My wife found Cynthia on Rover and we went over to meet her. We were immediately impressed by the secure yard and surroundings. Our dog immediately bonded with her little dog Chewey. To make sure, we arranged two "play days" to make sure that all went well. Everything went better than expected and I, being an overly protective pet parent, felt at ease with leaving our dog for a week. I had nothing to worry about. Cynthia took great care of our dog, sent us regular updates including pictures and videos. She let our dog settle-in at her house where ever our dog felt most at ease and took her out for regular walks and time in the yard. When we came back we found that our dog had such a good time that I'm not sure she wanted to leave! Needless to say that Cynthia will be our first choice to watch our dog whenever the need arises! Your dog will be in good hands.”

“An amazing sitter that’s really takes the time to learn and love your dog. She observes and teaches you things that even you may miss about your dog. Gives updates with many detail to put you at ease while away from your pup and she really makes your dog feel like family. Highly Recommend”
