“This husband-and-wife team is absolutely amazing — responsible, loving, and caring. They treated our dog like their own and sent regular photo updates during the stay, which gave us such peace of mind. Their sweet dog Jaxson even showed ours how to use the doggie door! They were so thoughtful and even gave us a slow-feeding bowl to take home. We’ll definitely use them again on our next trip. Highly recommend!”

“Kat took excellent care of my little Reina. I received updates on her quite frequently. Reina was taken on several walks and appeared to get a long well with Kat’s small pups. Thank you for all the care!”

“Beth took great care of our 5 month old pup, Disco while we were away for a few days. Disco had a great time playing with Beth's dogs and came back happy and exhausted (the best way for a puppy to be). We will definitely use Beth the next time we are in Tucson.”

“We had just moved to Tucson and I contacted Ron because of his great reviews. And he absolutely lived up to them! Murphy is very protective around me and I appreciate Ron for understanding that and giving Murphy a chance to settle in. I also really appreciated the regular photos of Murphy playing with Ron’s sweet dogs, and the messages talking about how Murphy was doing. I picked up Murphy and she looked happy and satisfied, which is always what I want when I drop Murphy off. I am glad I trusted Ron with Murphy”

“Patricia was an exceptional caregiver to my corgi. We had a good meet and greet and Pat was very prompt with communications as we set up the day/time to drop off and pick up my dog. She sent me photos throughout his stay with her, took him on multiple daily walks, followed his feeding regime and was just wonderful! I would recommend her services to any dog owner with confidence. I will be contacting her in the future whenever I need dog sitting services- she is my go to person for my corgi.”

“Our dog Ollie was very comfortable at Gail’s home with her dog and other dogs boarding worth her. It was our first time to use Rover and so happy to find Gail. Gail has a nice fenced yard for the dogs to run and sleep in the sun. Gail sent a few pictures and I could see our dog was very well cared for and enjoying her sweet home. Highly recommend!!!”

“She really does care about furry family members, treats them with love and kindness. She was always in touch and sending pictures. My babies were comfortable and well take cared of.”

“Marraya and her mother went above and beyond to accommodate our tiny but mighty chihuahuas for an entire weekend. They cared and loved our babies like if they were their own. Fur babies had to board at Marrayas house which was so clean and smelled so fresh. Abe and Zena do have special requirements and they were all fulfilled. Marraya was very commutative with updates and cute photos! She will be our go to sitter for any trips! 🙌🙏🙏”

“Lauren continues to be the best dog sitter one could ask for! Highly recommend. My dog Rosie loves her and her family - as demonstrated by how "at home" and happy she looks in all the update texts/pics Lauren provides during Rosie's stays. So happy we found Lauren on Rover, and we'll utilize her services again for sure!”

“Awesome sauce ?! She was the warmest with our four legged friend and she was super tentative our girl. T was great to know we went on vacation for a special treat away, but so did our girl. Thanks Vicky!”


“Richard and Jeanette were fantastic sitters for our 12 year old dog. She felt right at home. We loved the atmosphere of the home. They have made their home into a very welcoming place for our pets. Their backyard is well protected and very shady, our dog loved it there. We will use them again, no problem.”

“Ashley took great care of Luna. She was very prompt in communication and even sent updates/videos of Luna having a blast. I am happy to trust Ashley with my fur baby and we will definitely be returning customers.”

“Sylvie took great care of my baby and sent me daily videos and updates. Grateful to have found her last minute when I needed to leave Tucson for a few days. Highly recommend. We will be back!”

“It was our first time using Rover. Our year old dog Sandee loved being with them. They have a sweet dog named Preston which she enjoyed playing with. Carina and Santiago's two daughters also help with the pet care. Felicia even made Sandee a couple handmade flowers for her collar. So sweet! They also offer for a small additional fee pick up and drop off of your pet if needed. They treat their Rover pets as part of the family. :) We will be regulars with them!!”

“Barbara took wonderful care of our pup for her first, long term overnight stay. Daily photos and insights into who Maize enjoyed playing with were a delight to see and read. We'll be regulars!”

“Luna loves staying with Christie and Daniel. She has so much fun playing with all the dogs and playing fetch! And we love knowing that our Luna is safe and well cared for while we are gone!”

“I don't not do much public feedback or social media. But, I decided to leave one for Cathleen. She is a very nice person and she truly loves dogs. She took great care of my dog Daisy. When I picked Daisy up, she seemed relaxed and happy. There's is nothing better then having a happy dog. I will definitely see if Cathleen is available next time I need a sitter for Daisy.”

“We have used Daniel multiple times now, and I can confidently say he is truly one of a kind. Daniel is such a kind, warm, and caring person, and it clearly shows in the way he cares for the dogs entrusted to him. Our dog, Klay, absolutely loves him and he especially loves spending time with Daniel’s dog, Linus. Klay is always so happy and excited when we arrive at Daniel’s home. It has become a place of joy for him. In fact, today when I picked Klay up, I could see the sadness in his eyes as we drove away. He kept looking back at Daniel’s house, and as his mom, I know that look , he was going to miss being there. That alone tells me everything I need to know. Klay is always well taken care of, loved, cuddled, played with, and treated like family. With Daniel, I never have to worry. I know my dog is in the best hands. To any dog parents looking for someone you can truly trust. Daniel provides so much love, attention, playtime, tickles, and genuine care. Your fur babies will be safe, happy, and deeply loved. Thank you so much, Daniel. We appreciate you more than you know!💜”

“Darlene was great watching our two small dogs for a few days. We know our dogs loved her nice warm home and the backyard area. We appreciated the update mid-way through our trip to know everything was going well. Would take the dogs back anytime. Thanks again!”

“Travis really went above and beyond. I can’t say enough about the care that he took with my dad’s cat while helping was hospitalized. I would highly recommend him to anyone!”

“Sidney is just tremendous. She must be because my notoriously shy and skittish cat came out to greet her on the couch. That’s never happened with any sitter, so I appreciate her obvious skills with felines! Very easy to communicate with as well. Very highly recommend!”


“Logan is amazing, and we always know our kitties will be as happy as they could be! We are so grateful to have found Logan and plan on continuing to book for all our future needs!”

“Sarah was absolutely phenomenal with our two cats while we were away! She sent lots of pics which I loved since I miss them sooo much when I'm away (: They loved her too! She will take good care of your fur babies and I would 100% recommend Sarah as I'll be hitting her up in the future if I need my cats to be checked in on again also ♥️”

“Asher did a wonderful job with my senior cat.He is older and needs soft food. Giz loved his time with Asher. She was very patient and caring . I would definitely recommend Asher to care for any of your pets.She listened to all his needs and took really good care of him.”

“Outstanding Cat and tarantula Sitter , easy to work with. Loved all the updates and pictures of my pet family sent to me while I was serving in the Army far away from home , will definitely hire again.”


About: I worked at a boarding business for cats and dogs and was around many different breeds, sizes, and ages of cats. In this job I had to clean out their litter box, feed them their desired food, and also give medicine to the ones that needed it. I also had to play and cuddle and spend time with each cat during a shift. I have always grown up around cats, my first ever pet was a cat, and I own a cat now as well. I can pick up on their moods fairly quickly and know basic knowledge of cats health.

“This was the second time Heidi took care of our kitties! Appreciated her thorough daily updates and pics. Thrilled and surprised that Violet warmed up so quickly! Heidi truly has the magic touch”


“Very communicative and left detailed reports of how my cat was doing. She included photos in her reports, too, which was so fun to see while away. Absolutely recommend her for taking care of your fur baby!”


“El was so sweet and a wonderful sitter for my kitty over the weekend. Excellent communication and lots of photos in the daily updates. I came back to a very tidy apartment and happy cat. I would definitely book her again!”


“Did a great job dropping in on my kitties! They have a specific feeding routine that requires measuring out raw food with a scale and dosing medication into one of their meals. She handled both tasks with ease and seemed incredibly comfortable with the routine. She even went the extra mile by turning my plant lights on and off! She is very friendly, offers highly competitive pricing, and left me feeling completely confident that my cats were in good hands. I look forward to booking with her again!”

“Allyson was great! Thoughtful, patient and understanding with our nervous dog, and she left the house in great shape. She was communicative as well. We’d definitely book her again.”


“For this trip to Las Vegas, our original pet sitter wasn’t available due to a scheduling conflict, so we decided to try someone new. Alexis caught my attention because of her background as a veterinary technician. Since I reached out to her a little later than I had hoped, I was initially worried about how everything would work out. I’m so glad I found her. She accommodated our schedule perfectly, and even though I left a very detailed set of instructions, she followed every single one of them flawlessly. Knowing our pets were in such caring and capable hands allowed my family to truly relax and enjoy our trip. Thank you, Alexis, for your dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


About: I have been around cats my entire life. Currently the wife and I are parents to a brother and sister team of kittens and as a work from home house husband all I can say is the term "cat dad" gets thrown on me way too often. The past 20 years that I have lived in Tucson, our home has been a haven to a wide loving variety of fuzzy buddies and I would very much like to put my longtime experience to work for you. I am mature but a kid at heart, flexible schedule, reliable transportation, not afraid of stinky cat boxes or stinkier wet cat food, and, above all, can sit and play with your purr pals for as long as they need. Or you need. Or both. You get the picture. Cheers!

“Jewel was very caring and attentive to my cat Cleo. She made sure to leave a detailed report after each drop in. She made sure Cleo was fed, had water available, and scooped out the litter box during each visit. Any concerns she had during her visits were brought to my attention. This is the second time I booked Jewel to catsit Cleo and I would gladly do so again in the future.”


“Terri did a fantastic job of taking care of my kitties, including sorting out issues with the automatic litter box and water fountain. She even put my bins out to the street on trash pick-up day. She was great!”

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!
“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.”

“Barbara, was great. Her house and yard were perfect for Jokie and he loved being able to visit with the other dogs and Barbara’s grandkids! We will definitely use her again.”

Thanks for looking and hope to hear from you soon!
“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! 🐾❤️”

“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!”

“Sylvie is very knowledgeable and was able to manage the introduction of Lola into her daytime crew with both ease and care. She sent videos and messages helping me to see Lola’s interactions with the other two pups in her care. She also had much great input which I appreciated!”

“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!!”

“Reagan had a wonderful first day of doggy daycare! From the start, I knew she was in a warm, attentive home filled with love and great human and doggy companionship. Their family and sweet dogs made her feel right at home. With Reagan just turning six months, I really appreciated how thoughtful Daniel and Christie were about supporting our ongoing training. They asked great questions and kept things consistent, which means so much for her development. I’m so grateful to have found them and excited for Reagan to have a caring, fun place to be that also builds her confidence and social skills in such a positive, enriching environment. Reagan and I both look forward to her next day with Christie and Daniel.”

My job tittle including playing and cuddling with the animals, feeding the animals, cleaning where they stayed, and giving medicine to the animals that required it. I have a little more than basic knowledge of dogs and cats health and always try to stay up to date with that. I dog sit and cat sit for friends and families regularly aswell. I have always grown up around animals and if you were to ask anyone who knows me they will say I have always wanted to work with animals since I knew what a job was. I am currently a college student and am majoring in wildlife conservation, while that's not specifically a major for cats and animals I still have and will learn a lot about those species as well!! I currently don't have a job so my schedule is really open. I work out everyday usually in the mornings to early afternoons. But I have a very flexible schedule! I have a fenced backyard just under 2acres of land. So it is very spacious for bigger dogs to run around in! I am able to walk dogs for however long.
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!

We raised several dogs from 6 week old puppies to their senior years. Since moving out on my own I have had the opportunity to dog sit for all ages of pups. I have also always taken a special interest in volunteering at local animal shelters. I would love the chance to look after and love your animal like my own. I recently moved to the area and have time before my program starts. My days are all about learning the area and preparing for classes so my availability is extremely flexible.

Not currently offering in home service but could be flexible for returning clients!
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My first dog was a Chihuahua who lived to be 18, so I learned a lot about caring for senior dogs and making sure they stay comfortable as they grow older. I've also grown up around horses and farm animals, and I even had a leopard gecko for a couple years. Most of my friends and family have dogs too, so I've spent plenty of time around all kinds of personalities and energy levels. Being around animals has always been something I enjoy! I'm a full time college student, so I have lots of extra time to care for your beloved companions! I have my own transportation and extremely flexible times. I live in an apartment with my Belgian Malinois, so I know firsthand how important exercise, structure, and routine can be, especially for high-energy dogs! I'm very organized and always do my best to stick to each pet's normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home.

About: Growing up I’ve always had dogs in my family. However now that I’m an out-of-state student, I’ve been feeling homesick and it especially doesn’t help that I’m not around any dog love anymore. I heard about Rover through a friend and felt that this would help me with what I’ve been feeling. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! 🐾 I’m a full time student at the U of A with only morning classes, and plenty of time afterwards to have a fun playdate with your furry friend! 🐾 I’m a calm and respectful individual, who will do anything to assure you that your furry friend will be safe at all times in my care.
“Danika is a great communicator. Appreciated the text messages and pictures of the dogs. She was very considerate of the dogs in terms of the temperature outside for walks. Made adjustments to walking depending on the weather. Showed concern for our dogs' well-being and safety.”

About: I have taken care of both puppies and adult dogs. I have a flexible schedule and can drop by more than once daily if needed! I’m retired and have an open schedule. I can do multiple visits daily if needed. I also have the flexibility to do longer visits if needed to provide socialization and comfort for your pet! I don’t have the ability to care for pets in my home, but I’m available to go to my clients’ homes as frequently as needed. My policy is to be very respectful of my client’s space while spending quality time with their pets! I can accomodate any special needs and I follow instructions well!

Provided pet-sitting for 15+ years -Current cat owner of 1 cat for 5 years. -Provided drop-in visits and overnight dog-sitting through rover for 3 years I’d love to help out with drop-ins and walking in a regular basis in my neighborhood. I work 9-6 on weekdays, so I can do morning and evening walks and drop-ins. Also, I can do over night pet-sitting as needed. I’m very responsible and reliable. I truly enjoy playing and interacting with both dogs and cats of all ages and breeds. I would love to help you make having a pet more do-able and stress-free! I work a 8-5 job Monday-Friday. I can do check-ins before work and after work. For stays I am unable to stop by during the day, unless you love near downtown. In the month of June, I can work from home (your house) the second half of the day. I only provide stays at your home. I can follow whatever safety and care requirements you have, besides taking the dog out mid-day on weekdays.

“Our dog Ollie was very comfortable at Gail’s home with her dog and other dogs boarding worth her. It was our first time to use Rover and so happy to find Gail. Gail has a nice fenced yard for the dogs to run and sleep in the sun. Gail sent a few pictures and I could see our dog was very well cared for and enjoying her sweet home. Highly recommend!!!”

“Lauren continues to be the best dog sitter one could ask for! Highly recommend. My dog Rosie loves her and her family - as demonstrated by how "at home" and happy she looks in all the update texts/pics Lauren provides during Rosie's stays. So happy we found Lauren on Rover, and we'll utilize her services again for sure!”

“Awesome sauce ?! She was the warmest with our four legged friend and she was super tentative our girl. T was great to know we went on vacation for a special treat away, but so did our girl. Thanks Vicky!”

“Ashley took great care of Luna. She was very prompt in communication and even sent updates/videos of Luna having a blast. I am happy to trust Ashley with my fur baby and we will definitely be returning customers.”

“Luna loves staying with Christie and Daniel. She has so much fun playing with all the dogs and playing fetch! And we love knowing that our Luna is safe and well cared for while we are gone!”

“I don't not do much public feedback or social media. But, I decided to leave one for Cathleen. She is a very nice person and she truly loves dogs. She took great care of my dog Daisy. When I picked Daisy up, she seemed relaxed and happy. There's is nothing better then having a happy dog. I will definitely see if Cathleen is available next time I need a sitter for Daisy.”

“Michelle is AMAZING! She gave Rebel love and care as if her were her own. She sent daily pictures of their walks, and play time. I highly recommend considering Michelle for your pet-sitting needs. She definitely exceeded our expectations.”

“Alondra did a wonderful job taking care of our large Malamute puppy for 9 days! She sent daily pictures and/or videos, which helped us see how Rosie was doing and gave us peace of mind. The home has a large back yard for Rosie to play in and run, so this was a major help. Thank you Alondra for your care for our baby! We would definitely book again.”

“Dana is wonderful. One of my bag straps broke during drop off and she had repaired it for me when I came to pick my dog up. She also sent adorable photos and videos while watching my dog. So thankful I found her!”

“Brittani took good care of my pup over a 3 day weekend and I feel so grateful he was in good hands. He got lots of exercise, played with her sweet dogs and was very happy. Thank you Brittani! We’ll be back when we need help again!!”

“Lara is great! She has an amazing set-up of fenced in acreage where she keeps horses and a pony in addition to her own 2 dogs. She has regular daycare doggies and they have free range of her property and home after being vetted that your dog will be a good fit. Our 2 1/2 year old dog enjoyed her stay and even got to go on a desert exploration alongside Lara while she rode on her horse drawn buggy. Highly recommend Lara for daycare or boarding and we will be using her again!”

“We are passing thru and fortunately found Gina to take care of our fur babies. If we lived here Gina would be our go to sitter!!! Both pups were happy and healthy when we picked them up and it was clear they were loved by Gina and family 💝”

“David took great care of Birdie! She was very happy and healthy when I picked her up. I would highly recommend David and hopefully he will be available in the future when I need someone to watch her!”

“Ms Catalina’s AMAZING! She took very good care of our Mr Wick- very flexible, kept and kept us updated everyday. We are so happy and we’ll definitely see her again. Thank You so much, T. Family-”

“Karma was a happy camper!!! I got the most adorable daily pictures and updates, it was so clear that Karma was having the best vacation!! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better 🥰 thank you!!”

“Miriam was so great with my dog, Nova! She sent me lots of pictures every day which made me feel good that Nova was being well taken care of. I could tell Nova had a ton of fun and she didn’t want to leave! I would definitely have Miriam watch my dog again and would recommend her to others.”

“Seth and his family were a dream come true for any pawrents out there! You can truly feel the love they have for your furkid, they understand that furkid is family. Usually I feel separation anxiety but this time round I didn’t as I was assured that Cheddar was in great hands! They made sure to understand Cheddar’s routine and follow through to the dot. Seth also made sure to send daily updates so that we don’t miss out on all the fun he had during boarding. By the way Seth is a great photographer, we gained lots of poster photos for our boy thanks to him! To any pawrents looking out for a boarder, just do a meet and greet with them and you will understand what I mean. We definitely will not hesitate to rebook Seth and his family for any upcoming trips!”
