About Working For Wags

Our Pack

Our team is made up of vet techs, vet assistants, dog daycare specialists, and dog-trained professionals in Tucson, AZ. Our dog sitters are 18+ and go through a series of steps to ensure they are qualified to work with your pets including basic dog care protocol & procedures and background checks.

Frankie (& Robert), Chief Canine Officer

With experience running multiple successful businesses, many hours of experience training and being trained by dogs, as well as a long history of being animal lovers, the team decided it was time to pursue a shared dream to create a sanctuary for dogs and solve a recurring problem of never having someone experienced available to watch their pack when they wanted to take a vacation. Working For Wags is the first step toward that goal. If you are interested in learning more, please visit dogsoftucson.com We hope you will stick around and watch how the dream grows. 🐾

Our pack consists of Max, Maddie, and Macy, a tortoise named Micheal, and three chickens; Ethan, Betty, and Angel.

Ali, Sitter

Hello! I am a mother, wife, a blessed pet owner of two rescue dogs, and a veiled Chameleon. I have worked with all types of animals, big and small, different breeds, and recently helped run a horse sanctuary. Animals give an unconditionally love that deserves a warm and loving environment and I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to meet and care for your pet(s).

Angela, Sitter

Hello! I’m Angela. I grew up with dogs, cats, and fish all my life. I have 3 cats and each one is completely different from the others but in the end, all know when “Mom and Dad” need a cuddle cause we had a long day. I have 6 fish tanks so I can offer experienced care for your fish babies as well. I even had an iguana and a ferret.

My passion for animals took me to Vet Tech School in 2006 where I was able to help hands-on with lots of animals and give them the care they deserve and educate owners for their furbabies. I’ve been petsitting since 2006 including overnight care, medications, and special needs animals, and love my longtime clients and their pets.

In my spare time, my husband and I love to travel so we understand the need for good pet care.  I’d love to meet you and give your furbabies the comfort and care of being safe at home while you are away. 🐾

Isabel, Sitter

I am a huge animal lover. When I was younger I wanted to volunteer at the Humane Society. At that time, I was too young so my mom had to volunteer with me. After a few years, I because an employee at the same Humane Society I volunteered at. In all, I volunteered and was employed for 7 years at the Humane Society. I am looking forward to meeting your pets when you are on vacation. 

Brittney, Sitter

Hello, my name is Brittney! I am so excited to meet and care for your furry friend! I have always been an animal lover from the start. When I first started high school I volunteered at my local animal shelter. I volunteered for the shelter for 2 years, and with that, I worked very closely with the dogs that they had. I walked them every day, fed them, played with them, and cleaned up after them. After those 2 years, I just focused on caring for my own dog and focused on finishing high school. I would still dog sit for friends and family whenever they needed it. Right now, I am currently enrolled at the University of Arizona online and working towards getting my bachelor’s degree in art and design. I have a couple of rascal pets of my own who I love very much and I am looking forward to loving your fur babies as well!

Our dogs are more than just pets!

They are our children and family. We know you hate the thought of your pet being lonely. The look on your pet’s face when you head out for work or on vacation can leave us feeling guilt-ridden. We get it!

We are licensed, bonded, and insured.

What our clients are saying.

  • Angela did such an awesome job with our dogs! This was the first time we have left our dogs in a very long time due to 2 of the 3 being elderly and needing extra care. Angela was very attentive to their needs. We never had to worry about how they were doing because she would send updates via texts with pictures several times a day. Angela also brought up the mail and took care of garbage. I think the house was cleaner when we came home than when we left. I would not hesitate to have Angela back to watch out furry babies.

  • We’re so incredibly happy to have found a company and truly genuine people to watch our dogs. We have 3 dogs and we’ve never been able to travel without them unless a family member could help out. Ali, with Working for Wags, was the most incredible sitter! She watched them overnight for 4 nights and even spent a little extra time with them the day we were flying back in. She also helped with a very last minute house issue, which saved the day! The entire process was super professional and friendly, communication was seamless, and we will only be using Working for Wags, moving forward. A huge shout out to Ali!

  • We had a great first experience with Working for Wags! They came to our house to feed our two pups for several days while we were on vacation. Following their visits, they sent us updates by text and pictures by email, both which were greatly appreciated. They also helped us try to troubleshoot some odd behavior from our dogs, which turned out to be related to a smoke alarm that required battery replacement and was scaring the pups. Overall, we had a very positive experience and will definitely use Working for Wags again when we are out of town. :-)

  • Kristy was fantastic! My pets (dogs and cats) quickly warmed up to her and seemed to really feel comfortable with her (and the other sitter that visited too). I have one EXTRA nervous dog and I was shocked how quickly he warmed up to her. I got frequent updates about my pets and pictures even (which made me so happy and get to see how comfortable my pets were). It 100% put my mind as ease knowing my pets were in such good hands. Would definitely recommend.

  • Kristy knew that we were first time doggie parents to leave our babies. She made us feel so comfortable and able to enjoy our vacation.
