About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old and have owned more than three dogs throughout my life. I also have hands on experience from completing over 50 hours of volunteer work at El Paso Humane Society, where I helped groom, feed, and care for dogs while preparing them for adoption. I’m comfortable around dogs of different personalities and understand the importance of patience, and making them feel safe and loved. I am currently working part time on the weekends and I am attending UTEP as a sophomore. In weekends I would be available early mornings and weekdays would be early mornings along with afternoons. I have a big backyard for my dog to run around and get exercise and refill his water twice a day to keep up with him. At a client’s homes I will follow their instructions strictly. With my own dogs I give them all the walks they need to get exercise and have a fun day. I would treat a client’s dogs as my own.
About: I have always loved caring for animals and have had pets since I was young. I also have professional experience as a pet groomer, so I am comfortable handling and caring for different types of pets. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I am patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they are my own. I am a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I am able to work pet care into my schedule and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I have a fenced-in front and back yard, and I have a friendly dog who can provide companionship if your pet is comfortable around other dogs. I always make safety a priority and will make sure your pet is supervised, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I have owned dogs and cats my whole life and I always love getting a chance to meet new furry friends! I have pet sat for many neighbors, family, and friends throughout my teenage years. I am now 24, living in the west El Paso area with my fiancée, and looking to help out my neighbors with their pet sitting needs! I recently moved to El Paso with my fiancée, and I am currently looking for full time or part time work, so I figured what’s better than meeting new animals! My availability is wide open to look after your lovely pets, weekdays and weekends! I have crate trained dogs before, so handling a dog in and out of a crate will not be a problem for me. I can easily recognize the temperament of a dog or cat, so I can tailor my actions and care to the needs of your pet.
About: I have had dogs for 10 years for small breeds, medium breeds, and large breeds. Love seeing dogs explore there full potential and enjoy life from their eyes. I'm available for boarding anytime, or any day. You just need to give me heads up as soon as possible. I work 9 to 3 PM on weekdays but my wife is here all day. But I check on your fur baby constantly. Try to play with them for 1 or 2 hour period also have doggy puzzles for treats. Have a gravity waterer so constant flow of water and whatever food you pack with them. can fufill most if all requests. For my house the pets can have friends with my two pets. Instead of this they also can have their own room that has toys, a crate, gravity waterer, and food. with their own door that has to be open to a full and spacious back yard. also your pet will be walked at least 1 mile every day or .5 they stay with us.

“Jill took care of Lady our dog for 8 days. She did a three time check in for us, and did a wonderful job for us. We would highly recommend her and plan on using her in the future.”
About: I’ve volunteered in shelters for many years. Pets are a very important part of every family. Fur babies will always be taken care of with me. They will be loved as if they were my own. I will always have (or make) some free time to spread the love and help families take care of their fur babies whenever is needed. I can come by the houses and let out, play, walk, feed and bathe (if needed) your fur babies. I can’t stay over nights but can be there early in the mornings and late at night.
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life, from playful puppies and senior dogs to energetic cats and small animals. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just keeping your pet company, I approach every animal with patience, love, and attention to detail. I understand that each pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions to keep them safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and work hard to build trust with both pets and their people. I’m a PhD student at UTEP, and during the summer, I work from home—which means I have a flexible schedule and am available most of the time for pet care. Since my research and coursework are self-paced right now, I can easily plan my day around walks and drop-ins. Caring for pets adds a fun and fulfilling break to my routine, and I love having the chance to spend time with animals while providing dependable, loving care. Your pet will get my full attention and care throughout the day! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, playtime routines, or giving medication. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, love, and mental stimulation while you’re away. I also keep your home tidy and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide peace of mind and ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar space.
About: I have worked with several animal shelters across Texas, including San Antonio Pets Alive! shelter and the Palm Valley Animal Center. My family and I have cared for both cats and dogs for over 12 years. I am currently a full-time student, so my schedule is most available in the evenings or early mornings. My weekends are most available and flexible for any pet needs. In my home, I care for my pets by making sure that they have access to plenty of food and water. I am gentle with my pets, and check for signs of distress if they are acting strange.
“Leyla did a wonderful job taking care of our old pup, Donnie. She was very reliably to the house at the scheduled time and the pictures she sent showed that Donnie was really enjoying the company. I would not hesitate to have Leyla back to take care of any of our pets!”
About: Trainer with experience in puppies and dogs newly adopted from a shelter. I am a dog mom of a great dane so large dogs are welcome. Pet care is what brings me joy between school and my day to day life. I tend to do both walking and training after class. I care for pets by being aware of their body language and form clear communication to ensure every activity suits them to their fullest potential.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring military spouse with a true love for animals. As a proud dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m experienced in administering medications and caring for pets with different needs, so you can feel confident your furry family member is in good hands. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or extra care, I’m happy to provide personalized attention to keep them safe and comfortable. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for many wonderful clients and their pets, and I take pride in building lasting relationships based on trust, communication, and dependable care. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently not working since we just moved to Texas so I’m available to watch your furry friend anytime of the day. I’m very flexible! I make sure to first talk to the owner of the pet to understand the pets personality along with likes/dislikes. I want to ensure I have important information that will make the owner and most importantly the pet safe and comfortable while around me .
“Heather did an incredible job with my girls! I have one pretty nervous cat. She was patient enough with Nami that she was already friends by the end of the second day! Offered to groom them while I was away and had the correct equipment to make it easy. Would recommend her to anyone.”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a El Paso stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
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 El Paso 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in El Paso with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
