“Emily was great! We left our doberman with her for one night while we went to the grand canyon. She sent us pictures and communicated very well. Our dog got along well with her dogs. Definitely would use her again!”
“The best sitters! They are wonderful caregivers and provide awesome photos and reassurance for the families. Our canine family member will stay with them as much as circumstances permit.”
“This is the second time we leave Tessa with Wendy and it was also a great experience. Wendy is very communicative and sends lots of pics of Tessa enjoying with her and her kids. She also takes Tessa to dog parks and on walks so she can get her exercise. We recommend her :)”
“Five stars all the way for Lorenzo and his pet sitting services! From the moment I reached out, Lorenzo exuded professionalism and genuine care for my furry baby. His attention to detail and commitment to providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets is truly commendable. Not only did he adhere to all of my instructions regarding feeding and exercise, but he also went above and beyond to ensure my pet felt loved and cherished in my absence. Lorenzo’s updates and photos throughout my trip provided peace of mind, allowing me to relax and enjoy my time away knowing my pet was in capable hands. I highly recommend Lorenzo for anyone seeking top-notch pet sitting services. You won’t find anyone better!”
“Ashleigh and her family were great with my two dogs. It had been awhile since I boarded them and she made them feel right at home and sent pictures of them and sent updates frequently during their stay and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. My return trip was delayed and she was accommodating and flexible with the pickup time. I’ll definitely rebook with Ashleigh for future trips!”
“Alan did an exemplary job watching our pups. He was highly communicative, very responsive, and most importantly, we could tell he truly treated our pups as his own! During our meet and greet with him, Alan took the time to bond with our pups and learn about their individual personalities and needs. During their stay with him, Alan made sure to send us photos of our pups, which we were delighted to see them so comfortable and happy. We are so thankful for the time our pups were able to spend with Alan, and we are looking forward to booking with him again! We give our highest recommendation of Alan as a pet sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. I adopted my current dog from the dumb friends league and lover her so much i have a tattoo of her :-) I currently work full-time but available any time after 1:00pm for all dog walking and dog sitting needs. I am open any time Wednesday and Thursday. I care for my dog and others by giving them proper attention and love! I clean up messes right away and make sure they have ample time to do their business during walks.
“This is our second stay with Crystal and our girls have officially fallen in love. Crystal kept open communication and sent vids showing how my girls were engaging. Our girls had a blast!”
“Letty was amazing! She was so caring and attentive. She took really good care of my doggie and would keep me updated on their day to day. I will totally book with her next time I need a dog sitter!😊”
“Joanne did an amazing job! We were nervous about leaving our fur baby in someone else’s home but Joanne made sure we were comfortable and kept up to date throughout her time with her. Would absolutely recommend!”
About: My name is Celaya, and I have a strong passion for animals, especially dogs. I have over four years of experience in the pet care industry, working with a wide variety of dog breeds and sizes. My background includes feeding and administering medication when needed, as well as providing regular walks and exercise. I am skilled in reading dog behavior and body language, allowing me to ensure each dog's safety, comfort, and well-being. I take pride in delivering reliable, compassionate care and building trust with both pets and their owners. I recently moved back to New Mexico and am currently looking for work, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I enjoy making sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and the care they need. I’m comfortable making pet care a consistent part of my week and treating each pet like my own. When caring for pets in my home or at the client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and happy. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving any medications if needed, taking them on regular walks, and providing plenty of playtime and attention. I always watch for signs of stress or discomfort and make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a quick visit or overnight stay, I treat every pet like they’re my own.
“Christina was great! She kept us updated throughout our pups stay. Bree had a great time with her other boarder pup. Christina was very professional and we ( and Bree) liked her so much we are interested in setting up regular doggy daycare days!”
About: I never rush when hanging out with the babies! Sniffing is essential and I must allow maximized mental stimulation! My family dog is pretty rowdy too so i know how to handle a reactive dog. I also have 2 cats. One of them was so scared in the beginning so I know how to care for the scaredy cats. One, i found when he was just a baby so i’m experienced with kittens as well. I have extensive knowledge on reptiles, bugs, fish, rodents, and other critters as well! I am available weekdays in the evenings unless specified and most weekends. I will mark my calendar accordingly to show what days i am available and will communicate thoroughly. I will accommodate for each pets special routine and needs. Any requests by the pet parent shall be fulfilled and my low energy home is highly malleable to fit each pets needs.
About: I've been providing trusted house sitting and pet sitting services for family members for over five years. During that time, I've cared for dogs of different ages and personalities, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment while their owners are away. I also spent about a year regularly caring for and walking my sister's dog, helping with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am available for pet care on Friday evenings, as well as throughout the day on Saturdays and Sundays. I can provide services such as dog walking, drop-ins, and pet sitting during these times. I am flexible on weekends and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs and advance notice. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and reliable environment for every pet in my care. I have experience caring for dogs through both family and personal pet sitting, including walking and daily care routines. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort level, and specific instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets are always supervised during care, kept in secure environments, and treated with patience and consistency. I also respect each owner’s home and follow all guidelines closely to maintain trust and reliability. My goal is to ensure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: I have had dogs since I was very young. They are always by my side in life. I treat them more like family than a pet. I have a fenced half acre, with a small area fenced off for smaller dogs to enjoy. Outdoor area is landscaped with turf, for pet comfort. Dogs are welcome to get cozy on any indoor furniture. I am also experienced in giving medications or shots if needed. Dog walking is also available for those pets with extra energy. We can also send videos or photos to those who want to see their pets while they are away. I will love you doggy like he or she is my own. My job is to care for my animals. I will dedicate all my time to making sure we are all having the best time and making sure their stay is comfortable. Your pets schedule will become my schedule as I only take one family's pets at a time. We have no other pets in the home and no small children. Your pet will be cared for and not left alone at any time. I will stay with them 24 hours a day :) You Fur baby will be fed 2 times a day (unless otherwise instructed), with the variety of food you provide for them. Please bring 1 days' worth of extra food just in case you are not able to pick them up on the arranged dates. You can bring their pillow or blanket or any toys that may make them feel more at home with me.

Kristle and her family are great. Zoey had never spent the night at someone else’s house before. She came home happy and not hyper like she does from the kennel. Kristie sent pictures and updates. That really helped us relax and enjoy our time away. We will definitely leave Zoey with Kristle and her family again! They are all so nice!
I was very happy with their service. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place needing to have my pets placed and having no family here I went searching. I found Rover and started searching. I desperately wanted someone who didn’t have pets so it would be a drama free situation and I was pleased. I was updated with text and pictures. This put me more at ease. I give them 5 stars but if I could give 10 they definitely deserve it. If I ever need to have a pet sitter again I am 100% going to contact Jessa & Kevin.
It was Rudy’s first time staying overnight away from home, especially with so many other dogs, so I was a little nervous. But Melissa took such good care of him and made the experience a positive one! I really appreciate the care and attention she gave Rudy. Thank you so much, Melissa! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! ❤️🐾
Simply the best! I was able to enjoy the trip with no worries. My baby Opal was taken care of and Jen and her SO were very communicative and sent tons of photos to let me know she was okay. I can't recommend enough. Will use her services again down the road when I have future travels.
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!
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.
