“Melissa and Carlos were great with our two pups. Riley and Ralphs love their home and large yard. This is our third time having her sit for us. She is attentive and communicated well sending photos of our boys thru the day. We will def be back again ?”
“Pat was great with our dogs. We are very happy after their stay as they came back happy and content. She is there most of the time which is important and shows great love for all dogs. She sent pics while we were away which is also very nice. I highly recommend her.”
“Mark C. gave our dog lots of attention and love. He only takes care of one dog at a time. We received lots of photos and updates. Our dog spent five nights with Mark and I would recommend Mark.”
“Joshua was great with our dogs. He has a big backyard with lots of room for play and relaxation. He was good at keeping us informed on how our dogs were doing and even sent pics. Love that he took the time to make sure our dogs got a walk daily. Will definitely use him again!”
“We have use Bonni for our pups several times and aside from them enjoying her warm, safe and friendly home...I always trust she cares for them according to their needs. I can travel worry free with her watching them all.”
“Cindy was great with our three dogs while we were out of town. She is experienced and overall everything seems to have gone very well! She communicated regularly with us and was very flexible. We will definitely be using her again!”
“You will NOT be disappointed with your dog staying at Krystle. She is extremely passionate with all dogs and she will care for your dog like how she care for her own. She even took her time out to bathe for my dog. I will definitely will drop my dog at Krystle in the future. Thanks again for taking care of Mamba.”
“Laura and her partner have a large and nice outdoor space for the dogs! When my elderly but high energy dog, Dimitri, went to stay with them, he promptly became part of their pack! Laura sent me pictures of him going on walks with the other dogs on the trail by her house. I can tell he was very active while he was there because when I picked him up, he was out! He said hi to me, but then was soon snoring loudly. One quick note: given my dog is a largely indoor dog (we do not have a backyard), I did have to clean him off a bit once we got home. But I can tell overall he had a great time!”
“Lauren was great! As someone with hyper dogs, I super happy that Lauren was able to take them to the dog park and on walks to get their zoomies out. I could tell my pups felt right at home with her. 10/10”
“Josie, Peter & Paco treated my pup so well while I was out of town! They were super flexible and made my dog feel right at home- I’ve really never seen him so comfortable in someone else’s space! I got plenty of updates and my dog is tuckered out from all of his playtime. Definitely will be booking with them again next time we are out of town, so glad to have found them through Rover.”
“Hossanna was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Azula. From the start, she was so accommodating and kind, and she even met with us for two walks before Azula’s stay, which made a huge difference in helping us feel comfortable. I have very detailed (and sometimes neurotic) instructions when it comes to my dog, and Hossanna never once made me feel bad about that. She was patient, understanding, and clearly cared about doing things right for Azula. She sent us many thoughtful photos throughout the stay, and it was obvious Azula was comfortable, happy, and safe in her care. If she would have us again, I would absolutely book with her, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust.”
“Cecilia and her family were wonderful during Madam Valentine’s stay. She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos, and made sure Valentine had the perfect balance of playtime and rest. When I picked Valentine up, she was happy, excited, and clearly so well cared for. This was my second time booking with Cecilia, and I will definitely be using her services in the future. We are so glad we found her!”
“This was our first time using Rover and the experience went better than we could have hoped! Our Siberian husky can get separation anxiety when boarded, so we did a meet & greet with Courtnay and our husky fell in love with her. She was completely comfortable and well taken care of. Courtnay kept us updated throughout her stay which relieved any anxiety we may have had and let us enjoy our vacation. Will definitely be booking with Courtnay again”
“Maellen did a wonderful job watching our Lab while we were out of town. She installed complete conference with us and updated us with photos and messages while we were gone. She made our Lab feel at home and was well taken care of. She is great with taking care of your pets and we would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Albuquerque
Montague stayed with Crystal for a whole week. He seems to have really enjoyed it. He is about the same size and temperament as Crystal's dog, so that made his stay there doubly enjoyable. Tanner is the most friendly dog and welcomed Montague with wagging tail. Crystal sent me photos most of the days and a video of the two playing together. That was so nice! She is very responsive and got back immediately whenever I checked in.
Ben did a fantastic job with our pups! One of our pups is used to boarding, however this was the first time ever boarding our almost three-year-old Belgian Malinois who is a bit on the nervous side. On the meet and greet, Ben was fully confident and knowledgeable towards how to best introduce himself to our pups and we were delightfully surprised that our Belgian pup was comfortable (and even begging for more attention) within a few minutes of meeting him. During that meet and the drop off the next day, Ben was kind and patient enough to explain his dog care process, as well as answer all of our questions. He was fully communicative and responsive to us throughout their stay with him, even including daily photos of how our pups were doing. We are very thankful to him on such a pleasant stay for our pups and recommend him for all of your pup care needs!
Aijah is such an amazing pet sitter! I took an international trip for the first time since I got my dog and I ended up stuck a day longer than I was planning. She sent me pictures and was really flexible about pickup. When I picked my puppy up I could tell she had an amazing time and after such a chaotic trip, it was so nice to know that she was taken care of
Patrice was great with our baby. This was only our 2nd time leaving our pup and so we were still a little nervous, but Patrice handled everything so well. Our dog has some specific needs and requirements that can make watching her tricky, but Patrice did what she needed to! She sent many pictures and communicated with us throughout the day and responded right away to our many (probably overboard) of messages 😅. Thank you, Patrice! Will definitely be booking with her again.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
92% of sitters in Albuquerque can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Albuquerque home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Albuquerque.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Albuquerque sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NM ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
