“This is the second time I’ve booked with Maellen, she is my go-to when I need to board my dog. My dog is a very shy dog but has really come to trust Maellen and her husband. She loves their yard and all the walks! I look forward to booking Maellen in the future! She is amazing!”

About: I've been caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and Macaws. I've also volunteered at bird reacues and animal shelters in both New Mexico and Iowa. I have experience in animal training and Im currently an at home student at CNM so I have plenty of time to entertain and care for your pet. I enjoy making pet care a full time part of my life. I have a large fenced in back yard perfect for safe running and playing. It's got a nice spacious grass lawn with pet safe plants. The inside is pet safe and proof for your animals safety.
“My cats loved their stay so much they didn't want to come home! Kathryn was easy to deal with, good communication, and obviously loves cats. Highly recommended.”

“Max always gets so excited to go to Chad‘s house. It’s like we’re going to visit his doggy family. Chad is very careful in picking the other dogs that he watches so Max has always had a good experience if another dog is there”

“Mary was excellent, she treated Nico like he was her own I was sent pictures of him watching soccer with her on the couch and relaxing on the outside furniture. He was right at home I will be taking him back to her my next vacation thank you Mary for taking such great care of my Nico”

“Rosalia cared for our dog Winnie for 3 weeks while we took a dream vacation. It was pretty hard for us to feel good about leaving Winnie for so long, but Rosalia made it easy with daily updates. It was clear to us that Winnie was having a great time, which enabled us to have a good time on our trip. Thanks Rosalia!”

“Great communication with text and pictures daily she took extra special care of our pup! She made him feel loved! Would definitely book again and recommend to others!”

About: I’ve dog sat for most of my life, I have a love for all dogs and deeply believe dogs are family and should be treated and cared for as such I currently work full time on the weekends so I am usually off on weekdays and would love some company cuddling on the couch or walks I have a fenced yard and almost a half acre to run around. I have two beagles and a little yorkie that will keep your pup company.
“This was our second time leaving Ash with Jamie and Patrick, and they took wonderful care of her. We really enjoyed receiving photos of Ash having a great time while we were on vacation. Knowing she was happy and well cared for gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

“This is the second time Doug has watched our pups! He is incredibly reliable and flexible. We got stuck in another state for an extra day and he was able to keep them for us. Doug is the best!”

“Cecilia is a wonderful caretaker for my dog Baldr, I have left him with her twice. She is very communicative and kind and I feel comfortable leaving my beloved older dog with her.”

“Onrae did such an amazing dog watching my dog while I was gone for two weeks. The ask was rather sudden and he made me feel at ease. My dog recently had surgery and he took great of him. He constantly sent photos and updates. I feel really great knowing that I (and my dog :)) can trust his services. Could not recommend enough. Thank you!!”

“Crystal was very accommodating and flexible on a last minute request. Brown Dog and I moved just a few days ago and have been anxious, but Crystal and her dogs put us at ease immediately with the chill energy in the home. I think he loved his sleepover with his new friends!”

“My pup had a great time with Josie, her husband and especially their dog Paco. I got daily pictures and updates so that I never had to worry 🥰 Our dog needs daily medicine and they had no problem making sure she got it, they were even able to get around her pill defenses by putting it in cream cheese (a new trick I'm definitely adopting)! I was especially happy to hear how well our dogs got along and that lots of play and tug of war sessions were had 😄 Pepper was treated like family and we'll absolutely rebook next time we have to go away.”

“Michael watched our fur baby for 13 days. She is approx. 14 yrs old, and we were worried about leaving her for such a long period of time. Michael's calm and easy demeanor was reassurance that she would be fine. She does not get along with other animals and as the only pet Michael watched he was able to provide her with individual attention. He sent photos daily, which we greatly appreciated. We will definitely use his services again. Michael, thank you for taking such good care of our family member!”

“Esperita is always so wonderful when she watches my two pugs. She always sends me video updates and pictures and lets me know how they are eating and playing. Plus, the pugs love visiting her! She takes them to the dog park and everything. I'll always ask Esperita to watch my babies before anyone else!! ❤️”

“My dog Ariel had a very good stay at Mike’s. She is usually scared of men and prone to separation anxiety. She felt right at home with Mike! Communication with him was easy, his home is great to host and the neighborhood seems safe for dog walks. I would trust him with my precious companion again!”

Carmel dog parents share their Rover experiences
Maellen and Monty helped us out a LOT. They were accommodating and responsive not only once, but TWICE. Ran into a scenario where Bo got grumpy with one of our visiting family and had to immediately be separated. A few days later, a planned family event went awry and that led to a fury of changed plans for the next two days ... and this M&M team stood by while we tried to figure out what do to with Sissy. They really took care of our beagles and made them feel right at home.

We have been using Rover for years, and William is by far the best sitter we have ever found. His home is perfectly set up for dogs, creating a safe and comfortable environment where they can truly relax. It was clear that William genuinely enjoyed having them around, which gave us total peace of mind during our trip. We knew our babies were in the best possible hands. Highly recommended!

Absolutely the best ever!! Our dog was so very happy with Elena and her family. Safe, updates every day, pictures, great communication, very welcoming and friendly! Definitely recommend!! Elena provides above and beyond support and help and she and her boyfriend obviously love dogs!

We traditionally have used canine country club in the past, however we were in a bind because our 7 month old golden retriever is not spayed (vet recommended to wait a year). My sister recommended Rover (new to us). We found Erich and he seemed to be a fit. It was a confirmed win from the introduction! Erich (and Louie) were calm, fun, interesting, engaging and welcoming! Erich has a very special skill training dogs/puppies that provide immediate results. We could tell he cared deeply for his dog Louie and bestowed that love on our puppy as well. Our Golden stayed overnight with them and was happy, healthy, and far better behaved when we picked her up than when she was dropped off. A huge thank you to Erich and Louie for giving Montana your time, skill, love and attention!

I cannot say enough about how amazing Patrick was with my dog Max. Max received tons of attention, exercise and love. I was updated on how Max was doing with pictures and videos from Patrick. I would give more than five stars if I could. He went above and beyond. Very impressed!

Jaiden and her fiancé Matt took super good care of our Aussie and their love of dogs was evident in every communication and meeting. Had some qualms about 4 dogs in a 2 bedroom apartment but my dog had a blast and Jaiden and Matt seem to share their limited space easily. Would hire her again in a heartbeat.
