“Holly and Robert did a great job dropping in on our pup Murphy during the day. They had great communication with us about how he was doing and we came home to a happy pup. Thanks Holly and Robert!”
“Angela is very responsive to messaging and prompt. She gets along great with all of my dogs and is flexible with her schedule. I will continue to use her for all of my sitter needs.”
“Kimberly took excellent care of my 4 fur babies. They all seem healthy and happy. I think they miss the loves, treats, and playing that Kimberly gave twice a day. Above and beyond service provided, even brought in packages and cleaned litter boxes. I will definitely rebook for our next vacation.”
“Both our yorkies are on meds and one is on a special diet. Brigit did great with the meds and feeding. I feel the dogs were well cared for the week we were away.”
About: I've been a pet caretaker for most of my 45 years, but I only put 25 in the years experience because those adult years of my life have been most dedicated to pet care. I am a serial adopter of rescue animals, so I'm well versed in pet conditions that need special care. I don't crate our animals and I love them all unconditionally. If you have a pet that needs special attention or even a modicum of training, I'd be happy to help you take care of them. I'm a military veteran and author working from home. I spend my entire day spoiling my pets (I have both cats and dogs, and they get along well enough). I walk the dogs daily, sometimes more than once. The dogs get brushed regularly and the cats get brushed if they make an appearance or we can catch them. As mentioned earlier, I do not crate our pets. I prefer to let them roam, but I occasionally do block off certain areas of the house to prevent naughty behavior. The pets are always rewarded for good behavior with snacks.
“Laura was a blessing to have watching over my two cats while I was out of town. I will definitely be booking with her again. Absolute professional.”
“My 2 kitties received excellent care during my recent trip. Tabatha kept them fed, watered, and entertained- she even brought in packages that were delivered! She is a marvelous cat sitter and I do not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Five stars!”
“Thank you Seneca! I appreciate you coming over to the house and giving Dante his medicine. I love the report you provide on his activity and pictures. You are a caring and loving dog mom!!”
“Kristen was awesome! Her communication while watching the dogs was so nice and reassuring. She was thorough when administering meds to our geriatric dog. I don’t even think our pups knew we were gone. We will definitely contact Kristen again in the future! Thank you!”
About: I have worked in zoos, wildlife rehabs, and shelters for over 5 years. I am well-versed in operant conditioning training and provided medication to many species including dogs, cats, and birds. My schedule is very flexible, so I can drop by to care for your pet in your home anytime that fits your schedule! I am not available for boarding pets at my home at this time. I am unavailable for long term stays, e.g. longer than one week I always take into account the owner's preferences for their pet. I will adapt to the way you want your pet to be cared for. With my background in the zoo field, working inside specific parameters is how animals get the best care in the way they are used to.
“Kayla was amazing, never had a single worry, she sent pics and kept us updated which was wonderful. I would highly recommended using her for any pet needs.”
About: I'll take your dog out for some fun and enriching exercise while peacefully training them to calmly follow along at your side with no pulling, whining, or reacting! I am a dog trainer, field biologist, and academic coach driven to lead people towards a mutually fulfilling life with their dogs, and to share my knowledge and wonder of nature to promote stewardship and love for all sentient beings. I have cared for family pets (cats, dogs, fish, rodents, rabbits, etc) throughout my life, and I have performed extensive animal husbandry during my PhD in Animal Behavior and Ecology (I have even trained and rehabbed hummingbirds!). I began formally dog walking and training in January 2025 and have helped each of my clients transform their relationships with their dogs by learning how to efficiently and peacefully communicate. I hope to: 1) refresh your dog's basic obedience and floppy leash walking skills; 2) help you be aware of your dog's body language, and your own habits; and 3) empower you to become the leader your dog needs! I am happy to offer free nail checks and trimming! 1% of all proceeds will go to Blackhat Humane Society, a Navajo Nation rescue/ foster organization where I adopted my service dog Louie from! I am currently based in Albuquerque, and I have a very flexible work and life schedule, so I can likely accommodate requests for walks at any time and frequency! I have an extensive experience house and pet (and plant!) sitting for family and friends, and I always treat clients' dogs and homes with utmost respect. I am currently unable to host pets in my home.
“Savannah did a wonderful job watching my cats this past weekend. She was willing to come to the house for a meet and greet the weekend prior and checked in with a Rover card and sweet photos of the cats during her drop-in. Would definitely recommend!”
“Patrick is so amazing. I am very grateful for his help with taking care of my pup. He is so flexible and accommodating with scheduling. My dog absolutely loves him.”
“This is my second time using Patricia. She is always so sweet and giving with my shy dog. I know my pup will always be loved and well cared for when I’m away”
About: I love animals and have loved them my entire life. I believe that animals can touch the parts of our hearts that no human can. I love walking dogs and enjoy taking them out to explore the great outdoors. Every pet has a personality that is uniquely their own and discovering each and every one is a joy. I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep your pet healthy and happy until you return. Here's a link of an example of a typical walk. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/Vzk8zN8pcX0 My availability is fairly open so that I will be able to give quality care to your pet. I do have experience walking dogs for family members (four at a time) and I love how excited they get when they find out they're going for a walk.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and genuine love for animals of all sizes. I’m comfortable caring for both big dogs and cats, and I’ve had pets of various breeds and sizes throughout my life. Currently, I have three pets of my own, so I understand the attention and care they need on a daily basis. I also offer a very flexible schedule and can easily accommodate what works best for the client. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, cuddles, or patience, I’m here to provide reliable and loving care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I have three pets of my own, so caring for animals is already part of my daily life. I work part-time with short shifts, and also attend UNM, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide reliable care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking to their usual routine—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medications. I treat each home with respect and always make sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I keep clients updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
“Candice is one of the most caring person we know. She has gone above and beyond to ensure Bea is safe and comfortable. While the weather was pretty bad during the time Candice was watching Bea. She made sure Bea was safe and secure. We are so grateful for Candice.”
About: I have always had a great connection with dogs and puppies. I grew up on a small farm from my home town. Taking care of animals was usually a dad-today activity for me. I’m starting college in the fall to study veterinary and help our little Friends/ Family, to ensure there safety and great time. Pet care fits right into my daily routine because it’s something I’m going into school for. Being around animals for is a very helpful and mind positive activity. I’m studying a lot of different animals, including dogs. I have a park just around the corner for your fur baby to get some fresh air. I also have a puppy of my own who would love some company and also keep your fur baby active. I recommend being at the clients home for sitting
About: Hello fellow dog lovers. With 15 years experience raising and caring for dogs, I am looking forward to providing your furry family the best attention and care. My first two dogs have passed and we currently have 3 dogs, all rescues. I have experience with medications and dogs with difficulties. My second dog (Winston) lived with Type I diabetes and required daily insulin injections and a strict feeding schedule. One of my current dogs (Mickey) has severe anxiety and requires daily pills and regular clicker training to help him live his best life. We've had dogs from 20lbs. up to 90lbs, bully breeds, mixes, etc. I've received training in K9 CPR and K9 Heimlich Maneuver. I've trained all of our dogs to use a doggy door as well as basic commands. I do have a regular 8-5 job. On weekdays I can provide morning and evening care and overnight stays. Weekends offer more flexibility. Even though I have my own dogs, they have my family to take care of them while I dedicate time for yours. I am available Monday-Friday for morning and evening drop-ins and overnight stays. I am available on Saturday and Sunday throughout the day for more drop-ins in addition to overnight stays. Understanding that your pets time away from you can be stressful, I aim to provide a routine that can lower that stress and ensure they are at ease and comfortable until your return. Whether that’s play time or extra belly scratches, we will work to identify their needs before you leave. I can administer medicines as needed including pills, injections, etc. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, dogs with medical needs, etc.

“To whom it may concern, I’m writing in testimony of Josh working for your company. I’ve known Josh personally for just about 3 years now and in my experience he has been and extremely kind and caring person. Especially towards animals! We’ve asked him many times to check in on our animals while away and I am VERY picky about who I ask to enter my home and handle my animals. Seeing how careful and caring he is with his own animals he understands how special these creatures are to us. In summary I believe he would be a wonder addition to your team!”

Erich E.
“Erich is an excellent dog trainer. I have watched the transformation of his own pup (Louie) go from undisciplined, bad mannered, over excited, and easily frightened to almost service dog level in just a few months. Erich is also great with my dog (Kaya), and has taught me how to correct a few bad habits we have, which cleared up fairly quickly. I know Erich loves spending time with both his own and other peoples four-legged friends, whether it’s walking, training, playing, or just relaxing. I definitely recommend him.”

Avonelle L.
“My mother has 6 dogs and is in her seventies. Avonelle was very caring and helpful and walked the dogs just about every morning and was able to give my mother a break. The dogs loved every minute especially Lila and her son Moses. Moses would literally playfully try to take the leash out of her hand, he was so excited! Afterwards the dogs would be tired, but happy. I would highly recommend her to any pet parents.”

Arroyo Del Oso North pet parents share their Rover experiences
Savannah was kind, polite and followed all my instructions. My dog loved her right away, despite usually being shy with new people. It's obvious from the photos she sent that my pup was so well loved and cared for during her visits. I would definitely book her again!
My only experience with a dog sitter and I’m so happy we went with them. I have 3 dogs and one is fearful of most things especially humans and he warmed up to them eventually. Thats a huge deal for us and we are beyond grateful to find people we can trust for our pack. ❤️
I contacted Olivia only a few days before I was in need of someone to take care of my beloved cat, Zayda. She responded right away, came to do a meet-and-greet that same evening, and right away I knew that I could trust her with my baby. After booking her initially for drop-in visits, I asked her if she'd be willing to adjust the booking to staying overnight instead because I worried about my cat being lonely and scared of fireworks. Olivia didn't hesitate a second - she understood my needs and completely accommodated the change on short notice. She sent photos twice a day and communicated well. I am very grateful to have found her.
Stasia did drop in visits for three days to take care of my big dog. Her communication was great! She included pictures with each visit. She is reliable and trustworthy, follows directions well, and I would definitely use her services again.
Madelynne was very communicative and reliable in dropping in on our two very active dogs for a long weekend. She was professional and polite. She even helped sort out an issue with our auto cat feeder while we were away. We would definitely book her again.
Syanne and Ezra was so patient with all the fur babies They took their time and went at the dogs pace, never rushed them and were so attentive. They communicated throughout the whole drop in.
Stephanie was great! She kept us up to date with our dogs and was very friendly through the whole process. We will definitely ask for her help again on our next trips!
I can’t say enough about the wonderful care Alexa took with my senior kitty. She was kind, responsible, communicative and definitely made my vacation worry free. It’s so wonderful to know you can go away and count on someone to be there for your furry family member.
Amber was available last minute to come take care of my cats. She was quick to reply and set up a meeting. She was attentive and took great care of them. I loved the photos and updates she sent me while I was gone. I highly recommend her and would book Amber again.
Samantha did a super job taking care of my two cats. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing Samantha was in charge.
Sam was the best! She was able to accommodate my last minute check ins on my two boys. I felt safe letting her into my home. I arrived home to them waiting and they were well taken care of. I 100% recommend and will use her services in the future.
This was our first time using a service for our family pet. Patricia was excited to meet our elder dog and was so kind and loving. The experience with Patricia exceeded our expectations. We will request Patricia’s care again!
Chris was great! He was very patient and thoughtful for my dogs, especially with Bruno. I highly recommend Chris.
This was the first time I used this site and I had Brigid come over and watch my two little girls for a couple of days. everything seems perfect The girls acted kind of weird when I came back, I'm thinking that they were just mad at me for deserting them I think they thought that they were up for adoption because some lady was coming to take care of them haha! I will definitely use them again. Thank you Brigid.
Sharon was an excellent communicator and did a fantastic job taking care of our quirky cat during the holidays. We would absolutely hire her again!
I cannot say enough good things about Laura. My three kitties loved her from the moment they met, and she loved them right back. Laura sent us detailed, colorful reports, lots of pictures, and she kept our kitties well fed, entertained, and very cuddled. We also returned from our trip to find our home spotless. Laura went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t have been happier or more comfortable leaving our precious babies in her care. Laura is a stellar young lady and the best carer we could have hoped for. 😻😻😻
Thank you for taking care of my three cats. They did well with you and I am happy with the care you provided them and me. Happy Holidays.
Mone was fantastic. This was my first time using rover and was very nervous about leaving my senior cat and kitten. She kept me in the loop at all times, took great care of my cats and super friendly. cannot recommend enough.
