“Melissa was really easy to communicate with, checked in with me throughout the day with photos and info on how they were doing. Felt very safe with them in her care.”

Julia T.

“Peter took great care of my high energy black lab Birdie. Birdie and Peter's dog Mia hit it off right from the get go. Would not hesitate to leave Birdie with Peter anytime. Planning her next visit now.”

“Tracy was incredibly kind and caring with our fur baby, she was very responsive and sent lots of pictures during her stay. Also super flexible! Our pup loved Tracy!”

Tess S.

“Josie, her husband, and Paco took great care of my Pip while we were vacationing in ABQ. Having Pip go over to her house allowed us to get some hikes, bike rides, and brunches in without having to worry is our young, energetic dog was being destructive or bored at the Airbnb. Highly recommend, and will definitely request Josie again when we return.”

Lori S.

“Kathy is fantastic, understands dogs, is a good communicator. Her dogs are also great. I did not get to meet Val but heard she was tolerant of my barky dog”

About: I love looking after animals and making them feel loved and cared for. Your animal’s safety and care is my top priority. In addition to frequently, dog, cat and housesitting, I also have two dogs of my own. If I am housing your dogs in my space, they will get along great with your pet, as they are very friendly dogs. I am open to both housesitting and boarding your dogs. I love to take frequent walks, many play breaks, and snuggles if your animals like to cuddle. I have experience with anxious animals, and I know how to be a calming presence that respect their boundaries and make them feel comfortable. I have experience with both very small dogs up to very very big dogs. I currently work from home, so if I’m boarding your pet or house sitting, I can work while taking care of your furry friends! I walk dogs daily, let them out to use the bathroom about every 2-4 hours, and love to play and cuddle! At my home, I have a small enclosed yard and never leave things out that animals can get into. At yours, I’ll follow your instructions and make sure to keep them safe.

“Bonni was good with our little Havanese dog. I liked the yard area including some grass. Bonni was accommodating to our schedule of daytime/evening schedules. We took our dog with us at night. Thanks Bonni!”

Terri S.

“Always amazing! Punnarai is caring and attentive. My pup is excited to be dropped off and (sadly for me) tentative to leave the fun environment she creates for him while he’s there. Definitely recommend.”

“My first time here on Rover and we had a great experience. Thank you so much! I’m so happy I found Leslie & James. The dogs were in great hands and I felt reassured they will be cared for from the get go.”

Marianna E.

“Jason was great! He watched our two senior dogs, and our girl can get anxious when in a new place. He sent regular updates with pictures, and they both loved being there!”

About: Hello! I am very experienced in any and all dog needs. I work from home, can provide enriching walks, and also have a huge fenced in back yard. I live with one very well trained and friendly dog of my own and am passionate about giving dogs amazing experiences! I work from home, so I can spend as much time with your pup as you'd like! Typically, I leave my house for the gym once a day. I take care of every dog like they are my own. I have one well-trained and friendly pup of my own that yours can play with while they are here! There is a large and safe area for them to run around outside, as well as be cared for inside. No rooms or surfaces are off limits for pets, aside from sleeping in my bed.

“Melinda was wonderful! She was very friendly and knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior, and that put us much more at ease. Our dog is deaf, so it’s always a little stressful having him stay with someone else for the first time, but he had an amazing time, and we would absolutely book with Melinda again!”

Kat R.

“Cindy was great with my 2 year old baby. I sent Sandia for my 12 hour shifts and Cindy was flexible with pick up and drop off times. I got lots of picture updates. Sandia loved playing in the backyard with Cindy’s other dogs. She was so at ease during drop-offs, giving me peace of mind that she felt safe in Cindy’s home. Thanks again :)”

Ciara M.

“Jamie was very friendly and communicated with me during the stay. She has young kids in the home for playtime with my small dog along with a friendly poodle of her own.”

Sonyia H.

“Oh how grateful we are to Jody's excellent and sensitive care and support! Our pup had started to have so much anxiety and we were feeling desperate about what to do! Jody is sweet, attentive and caring. You know you've found the right person when your dog runs up to greet her and is so happy to be with her. Jody is the one!”

Melissa B.

“Cecilia and family were very kind and understanding of Buffalo’s insecurity being left behind. Her dogs were very kind with my dog and had no issues. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures that reassured me that Buffalo was comfortable and safe.”

Kori K.

“Kimberly was easy to book a Meet and Greet and also my Doggy Day Care. Going back to the office more, I felt bad leaving Sadie home all day by herself, so I figured a play day every now and then help. But I was worried, because Sadie has lots of energy and just wants to play when she's with other dogs. Kimberly made me feel very comfortable letting Sadie stay with her. My Sadie must have played hard with her Ridgebacks because she was exhausted when I got her home. She only got up to eat and back to sleep. Haha. Just what I wanted. Kimberly even gave her a homemade doggie popsicle, which she seemed to love. I would definitely book again. Thanks Kimberly!”

About: Hi! I’m 20 and am currently a student at UNM! I’ve have cared for dogs and cats since I was 5. I’ve helped with bathing, basic training, and often take dogs on mountain hikes and other adventures! I’m kind, responsible, and love animals of all sizes. I have lots of free time this summer and would love to keep your pet happy, active, and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible summer schedule, so I’m available for drop-ins, walks, or extended care throughout the week -I love making pets part of my daily routine! I live in a safe, gated home with a large, private, and secure backyard perfect for play and potty breaks, and I am also just a short walk away from downtown parks and pet-friendly spots for our outings. Inside, they’ll have a cozy, clean space to relax, with plenty of attention, affection, and playtime.

About: Since starting with Rover I have gone from a pet "empty-nester" and working part time, to finding my own rescue dogs and not working outside the home at all! I'm looking for dogs that fill my house with joy and who I can pamper, and walk, and play and just hang out with. Most days I'll be available to spend quality one-on-one time with your dog. I've got a great fenced and gated back yard with sun and shade, a house that is pet friendly, and a neighborhood that is full of parks and sidewalks for leisurely walks. I'm looking for well-behaved and socialized dogs. I don't want them to dig, bark excessively, pee in the house, or be aggressive - even a little. I'm an experienced dog sitter who has been working with Rover since 2016, and I've been a dog and cat owner for over 30 years. My caring for your dog will include finding out what they want and are used to, and making sure they receive it, so they will feel happy and safe. I will be home most of the days that your pet is staying with me. We will take walks and they will be able to go in and out of the house as they desire. I'm also known for being available for ball fetch and tug of war! I have a fenced in yard and a house that is safe for animals of all sizes. If your pet is crate trained please bring their crate, and don't forget their bed, which will be their comfort zone at night. My dog enjoys visitors and is not possessive about her space, toys or food. I'm focused on pet care, and generally don't leave the dogs alone more than a couple of hours at a stretch. The household rises early and it's lights out by 9 PM. My back yard is enclosed with a wall and two gates. I live in a residential area and it is quiet and peaceful inside and out and I am able to keep the dogs separated from doors to the outside should we be welcoming four-legged or two-legged guests.
