About: I've taken care of multiple dogs (and cats) at a time, ranging in ages from baby-17 years old! Giving them my full attention and complete awareness to their behavior is my specialty. I’ve also puppy trained and potty trained my dog. ✨Ask me about long term stays! Despite my calendar availability, we’ll see what can be worked out. Hi! I am a single mom that is starting her own business in Permanent Makeup. I am also a dental assistant part time. I’ll have my 4 year old with me, when she’s not in daycare. I am busy, but I know we can find time for your pets. I’m available evenings, definitely weekends, and holidays. I will never leave your pets alone for extended hours. Especially if they require extra attention. They will be safe and get the attention, love, and potty breaks needed.

About: Hello! I’m Miranda and I love animals, I have volunteered at my local animal shelter for almost a year! I helped with dog walking, socializing the dogs with people and with community events to help the light shine over our animals. I’m going to be a substitute teacher for this next school year! During the summer I am wanting to stay active and make new furry friends along the way. I’ll be available during the weekends when the school year is in session, but I am also committed to work a schedule after school hours as well. I have a fenced yard and some sections of my yard have a separate fence so my small dog can explore without being close to the road. She has her own car seat on my vehicle. Volunteering at the animal shelter has helped me specialize in high anxiety dogs and very active big dogs.

About: Cats tend to trust me because I approach them with a calm, gentle spirit and allow them to connect with me at their own pace. I don’t force affection or treat their care like a checklist—I pay attention to their personality, comfort, behavior, and individual needs. My years of experience have taught me how to recognize when something may be wrong and how to respond calmly and responsibly. I take following instructions, maintaining routines, securing the home, and keeping owners informed very seriously. Most importantly, I genuinely love cats and care deeply about their well-being. Every cat in my care will be treated with the same patience, protection, and compassion. I’m available most days and weekends. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. Connect with me so we can discuss a schedule that works best for you. I primarily provide pet sitting in my clients’ homes, where cats can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routines. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, fresh water, medication, litter-box care, playtime, companionship, and any special needs. I also provide updates so owners can feel confident that their cats and homes are being well cared for. References from previous in-home pet-sitting clients are available upon request. I generally do not care for cats in my own home, but I may consider special circumstances on a case-by-case basis. My home has multiple levels, no children, and a securely fenced backyard. I provide grooming services for cats only and on a case by case basis. I do no clip nails. I have years of experience bathing and properly cleaning cats, both my own and strays. I can provide the service for a small fee.

About: Hi! My name is Tamyra. I have three large dogs of my own and grew up working with animals — my first job was at a dog boarding facility, and I volunteer at Watermelon Ranch. I also spent two years as a live-in nanny caring for two toddlers and three pets, so I’m experienced with busy households and all kinds of dogs. I treat every dog like family and would love to care for yours! I’m available all summer! I’m graduating from UNM this May, so I’m very flexible and can care for your pets any day of the week. I care for every pet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. My pup Jilly is truly my best friend, and I bring that same warmth and dedication to every dog I care for. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and joyful environment—keeping their routines, giving them plenty of affection, and making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved at all times.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and entertain their pets. I currently work full time but am available 24/7 on the weekends. During the week, I can walk/feed/play morning and evening around my work schedule. I understand all pets are different and that their needs vary. I am flexible and willing to accommodate any special needs that your pet may have.

About: Hello everyone!! I am an honorably discharged Army Veteran (served 11 years), as well as a Certified Veterinary Assistant. I was raised surrounded by animals and being responsible for their wellbeing, so I understand, and I am aware of what it takes to care for animals. I know how to give oral medications/insulin/injections. I do pet sitting for fun; however, I have been considering doing it full time. I enjoy meeting all animals and maintaining a client base. I have one kitty cat that is about 14 years old, she is a rescue. Unfortunately, my dog Zeus (the golden retriever on my profile) passed away 4 months ago. I will care for your animals and treat them as I treat my own, with love and compassion. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I would be happy to answer any questions. I am currently switching over to doing this full time, so your pets will have my full attention (along with my pets of course lol). I’ll care for your dogs and cats as I care for my own. With love, compassion, and lots of pets (even lots of pets for cats if they let me).

As of October 2026, there are 783 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Bernalillo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Bernalillo. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Bernalillo after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker 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 .

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
