“Rhiannon was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! One of my dogs struggled with bad separation anxiety while we were gone and she went above and beyond to help him cope with it and gave him so much extra love and attention. She left our house in excellent condition as well. We appreciate everything she did for our fur babies and highly recommend her to anyone!”
“This is the second time Lydia has sat for us. We are so grateful for her care and love for our pups! She's sweet, attentive to details and a trustworthy person. Our dog ended up chewing some fabric and throwing up and she handled the situation in a way that didn't make us panic. Our flight got delayed and she offered to stay longer with our dogs. The house was sparkling clean. She's our number one sitter! Thank you Lydia ❤️”
“Sarah is absolutely terrific! She is very attentive and plays with our two dogs daily when she took care of them. After we returned from our week long trip, the house was clean and the dogs were very mellow indicating they had a good time with her stay. The dogs really liked her. Sara is A+. We plan to have her watch our dogs often when we travel.”
About: Hello! My name is Kara. I work from home so I have flexible hours to take care of your pupper. I can't have a dog where I live, but as a dog-lover, I so enjoy getting the opportunity to care for other people's pets. I've watched big and small dogs from beagles and french bull dogs to greyhounds, and great pyrenees. I have experience with old dogs, puppies, and everything I between. I can administer medicine as well. I'm happy to provide references from past dog sitting experiences. I'm looking forward to meeting you and you doggo. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions at all. I work from home, so caring for dogs helps me get away from my desk and outside. My ideal scenario is staying with a dog longer term (a week or more) so I can establish a relationship with a pup and get on their schedule. I am great at fitting into your dog’s routine and your home’s specific environment. Happy to accommodate any rules you have for where your dog can and can’t go, and happy to take advantage of parks, trails, yard space etc. Near your home. Also happy to take your dog on longer hikes if appropriate.
“Jerrett did a great job with our house and two pups during an 5-day overnight stay. He’s very responsible, communicative and shared lots of photo/video updates. Our vacation was stress-free as we knew everything was going well at home. Would highly recommend him to care for your pets!”
“Mel went above and beyond watching our dogs at our home and we couldn’t be happier. We appreciated the photos and check-ins while on our trip and we would absolutely book with Mel again.”
“Karen-Joyce did a wonderful job pet sitting for us on a long weekend trip! She was very detailed in learning about our needs beforehand, and very communicative. It's easy to tell how great she is with dogs. While this was our first time using Karen-Joyce as a sitter, we immediately felt confident after our meet & greet and had no hesitations. She left our house clean and the dogs were happy and well cared for! Definitely recommend :)”
“Birdie was absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of our pup and was so easy to work with! She sent daily photos and our pup really loved her. We’ll be booking again and would highly recommend!”
“Lily was great! Our dogs love basically everyone but they rarely feel at home enough to nap and snuggle with the sitter. We got lots of pictures throughout the day of them doing just that, comfortable enough to snuggle and nap all day. Definitely will have her watch them again!”
“Bianca was outstanding! She house/pet sat for our two dogs while we were away for 10 days. We received daily updates and photos. She let us know details about the dogs and our house was perfect when we returned. Her experience with animals and understanding of behaviors is clear. Would highly recommend her!!”
“Madison is amazing! She took great care of our pets and home and we were able to fully be present on our trip knowing everyone was so well taken care of. Would highly recommend her to anyone :)”
“Laurie is kind, loving, compassionate, meticulous and an all around super dog sitter. She hiked our dogs on the local trails, which was such a blessing. She put up with their barking, and showed her respect and love, even for the especially noisy one, Flea, not a minor accomplishment. A super communicator, never fearing to ask questions, which is always a relief to us. The house was beautifully kept, and it was our pleasure to have her in our home. We are grateful and would use her again any time, if she would have us back! She is now part of our house and dog family. Thank you so much, Laurie.”
“It was the first time using Eliza for overnight sitting and she was fantastic! She kept us updated with pictures and left our house clean after the visit was done. 5/5 and will be using her again :)”
“I am so grateful to Lis for her availability on short notice, her competence with my young-ish Rottweiler, her ability to absorb a lot of directions in a short amount of time, and her excellent care. She is communicative, personable, and an excellent photographer! I felt so at ease with her here. She also left the house immaculate. Highly highly recommend Lis!”
“Dustin is probably one of the best sitters we’ve ever had. He was so respectful, responsive and responsible. He obviously cared about our fur babies very much and was great at sending pictures, updates and any questions. If I asked a question he was very quick to respond. It’s awesome to come home to a neat house too. It’s great knowing we have a local sitter now, if needed.”
“Dori is absolutely phenomenal! My dog is not good with strangers, and Dori was more than willing to set up a few sessions prior to housesitting in order for my girl to acclimate to her. She sent great extensive updates and relayed exactly how the stay was going each day. I could tell my dog was happy and having fun. I started out very nervous but quickly left any concerns behind while on my trip. Thank you Dori for being such an animal lover and wonderful person!”

About: I am an absolute cat person and I've been taken care of my in-law's cats and convinced my husband 3 years ago to adopt our own furr-babies. I will take care of your little ones as if they were mine. It is important that they are taken care of but it is also important that they don't feel lonely or left out. I will go the extra mile and spend time with them. Gaining their trust to get affection from them or play with them is key. I am happy to spend extra time with them with no extra charges. Cats affections are the reward! I am flexible in terms of hours and home office. If I know your schedule in advance I can work from home and take care of your cats at any time during the day. If your cats let me, I will play with them, cuddle them, and spend extra time with them. But the most important things are their feeding routine, making sure they're hydrated and to provide a clean cat litter box for their well-being.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Cerrillos walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Cerrillos maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cerrillos choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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 sitter.
