Was so great with my kitties! She sent me updates every day and that made me feel much more comfortable about leaving them with a sitter for the first time! Super appreciate that she was willing/able to watch them over Christmas! If I ever need another sitter I will definitely be asking Emily!

Jasmine did an excellent job with our animals. She quickly understood just what was needed, handled everything we discussed, and went out of her way to make sure everything was taken care of. Our dogs were content and happy when we got home. We will definitely book her again!

Savannah took care of our 4 dogs while we were gone on vacation. She kept us informed and sent many pictures. Savannah displays a love for animals and our dogs really like her. Our scared yorkie even warmed up to her and that is a real accomplishment. We will definitely book her in the future.

Buddy loved Ren so we do too! Although our senior cat is usually shy with strangers he took to Ren right away. He ate, he cuddled, he played.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog-lover who hasn’t had the chance until now to pursue my dream of working with dogs full-time! My love for dogs has always been a big part of my life. In college, I worked for an animal boarding and daycare facility, I’ve frequently dog sat for friends and family, I worked with a nonprofit who trains therapy and medical dogs in college, and I had a sweet Brittany Spaniel growing up and have been living life with my hound dog Maci for the last 11 years. I’m excited to see how I can be of help with your pets! I am currently free and flexible to care for your pet anytime of the week! I am available for boarding periodically throughout the week and weekends. I prefer to care for pets in their known environment, but I do have a fenced yard and am able to crate a dog if needed

Our family had a medical emergency that lasted 4 weeks. I had never used a pet sitter before. Sarah took such amazing care of my fur kids, I am so glad I found her on Rover.

About: Dogs are better than most people! What sets me apart is my ability to connect with pets quickly and make them feel safe. I’m patient with animals who need time to warm up. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality that deserves routine and connection that makes them feel right at home, even when you’re away. I have experience administering oral and topical medications, keeping up with special diets, and following detailed care instructions to the letter. I have specific experience with dogs that have CHF as well as dogs with liver disease and cancer. I’m a current volunteer and foster with Action Programs for Animals, though I have taken a break from fostering to focus on offering boarding and pet sitting services. I have no small children and work from home, so my flexible schedule allows me to offer walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays at times that work best for you and your pet. I’m big on communication- I send photo and video updates so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind while your pet gets all the love, attention, and care they deserve. If boarding your pet, my home is fenced and in a low-traffic and quiet neighborhood. When caring for pets in their own home, I keep their routine as close to normal as possible with same feeding times, same favorite spots, same walks or play sessions they love. I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

This is for the stop in visits. Allison was wonderful with our very timid dog Lola. She showed up on time, fed her, and patiently let Lola get to know her. We received photos, and several updates on things. Allison was great with her!

Samantha was awesome! She quickly responds when we message her. She was very flexible and helpful when we had last minute changes to our schedule. She was a good friend and caretaker of our old dog while we were away checking in when she did her drop in visits and kept us updated on how she was doing. Excellent doggy sitter.

Janet was amazing. She did twice-daily drop-in visits and made sure my cat got her medication and supplements at the right times. More than that, though, she was great with with my cat, figured out her habits, and accommodated her whims. I was gone for ten days, and they developed their own routine. Janet sent lots of photos, so I knew my cat was doing well. I highly recommend her and will have her look after Tacy again in the future.

Amy and Eli took the best care of Teddy I could have wanted. I took an 8 day vacation, using 2 visits a day. I got notified at the start and end of each visit. I got photos and a short update. The photos are adorable and keepers. I came home to find Teddy stress free. His coat was beautiful and he is his usual laid back, loving self.

About: As someone who has been a dog owner since childhood, I understand the importance of treating our furry friends with the utmost care and respect. I've had the pleasure of taking care of my friends' and family members' dogs on numerous occasions and always enjoy their company. Dogs truly are a member of the family and deserve to be treated as such. Rest assured that if you ever need someone to look after your dog, they will be in good hands with me. I'm available for pet sitting during the evenings. I'm currently working part-time and studying, but I love spending time with animals and would be happy to work with your furry friend. I will be providing the utmost care and attention to your dog while they're in the comfort of their own home. This way, they can feel secure and relaxed in a familiar environment, which can help to reduce any anxiety they may experience while you're away. I'm confident that your dog will be happy and healthy under my watchful eye!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dona Ana on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 174 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dona Ana. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dona Ana stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

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