“My little Chloe was so well taken care of my Roberta! She got to go with her to the Home Depot, an outing that I know she loves, and got to play with other family dogs when they went to visit. Chloe was so happy with Roberta that I was a little envious when I went to pick her up! I highly recommend Roberta and will be setting up another stay with her soon.”
“Angel is the absolute best dog caretaker in town! My dog often struggles with separation anxiety and only Angel can make her feel loved, at home and genuinely happy!!! I never have to worry about my little fur baby while I’m away when she is with Angel ❤️”
“Mark was so great with Skeeter! Skeeter needs TLC being blind & elderly, Mark showed great patience with him. He kept us updated with pictures & videos. He truly loves dogs. We will definitely use him again! Thank you Mark!”
“Brandi took great care of Mika while I was away. Communication was clear and consistent, and I especially loved receiving picture updates they were my favorite part and gave me peace of mind knowing Mika was happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Brandi to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Both our dogs had wonderful stays. Daisy is now old and slow while Dahlia is very high energy and loves attention. They both seemed quite happy 😃”
“Melissa and Carlos were great with our two pups. Riley and Ralphs love their home and large yard. This is our third time having her sit for us. She is attentive and communicated well sending photos of our boys thru the day. We will def be back again ?”
“Esperita watched our dog over the holidays. We got updates and photos of him every day. He even came home with a paw ornament! It seems as though he was well taken care of and had a great stay. Lots of walks and play time!”
“Jamie and Patrick were awesome. Easy to communicate with and very responsive. This was my dogs first stay away from us and they were understanding of that. Trustworthy, friendly and caring. I would definitely use them again.”
“Great service very friendly & communicated.She sent pics of my dog interacting with the other dogs playing . After his stay she gave me a goodies bag with treats & pictures of dog the memories created while during his 3day stay. I’m truly grateful 💕”
“Our dog, Ailyn, had a great time with Jessica and her animals. Ailyn was fascinated with the cats and between them and Clara she had a blast and played hard during her stay.”
“Michael was great. He’s the only dog sitter I’ve had that actually did everything he said he would. My dog got lots of exercise and I had plenty of updates throughout the weekend. Would recommend to anyone!”
“This was our first time using Rover and the experience went better than we could have hoped! Our Siberian husky can get separation anxiety when boarded, so we did a meet & greet with Courtnay and our husky fell in love with her. She was completely comfortable and well taken care of. Courtnay kept us updated throughout her stay which relieved any anxiety we may have had and let us enjoy our vacation. Will definitely be booking with Courtnay again”
About: I boarded and walked dogs in Los Angeles for three years, so I'm comfortable with most breeds and temperaments. My secret weapon? Bone broth ice cubes—they're a constant hit! My sister-in-law is a professional dog trainer, and I've learned a ton from her. I'm happy to reinforce your pup's existing training so routines stay consistent. Plus, with two high-energy, playful dogs of my own, your pup will have built-in best friends and a fenced yard to zoom around in all day. As long as your pup is dog friendly this will be a paradise. Ready to book a meet-and-greet? Send me a message—I'd love to meet your pup and show you the yard! 🐾 I work from home, so I'm around all day for potty breaks, belly rubs, and playtime. Breakfast is served around 9 AM, dinner at 5 PM—routine keeps pups happy! Depending on the weather, we'll either hit the trails for a morning hike or skip straight to zoomies in our fenced yard. Afternoon? More yard time, tug-of-war, or just napping at my feet while I work. Evenings are for winding down with cuddles. Safety is my top priority. Our yard is completely fenced six foot high with no gaps. The dogs will stay outside unless it’s cold or rainy. Inside, I keep a clean (tho covered in fur), dog-friendly space with water always available and hazardous items well out of reach. There are two cats inside so I do need to know if your dog is or isn’t cat friendly. I know dog body language from my years of boarding, so I can spot stress or overstimulation before it becomes an issue. If any pup needs a break, I have quiet spaces set up for alone time. I also require updated vaccines and am comfortable giving oral medications if needed. With two friendly resident dogs, I carefully manage introductions and group play to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve been the primary provider for my cats for a decade since my family adopted them. On occasion, family friends would ask for help with their pets. I’m working part-time with plenty of free time to fill. I can typically pick up last minute bookings, but I’d prefer sooner notice. I’d consider myself very understanding of cats and their needs. I love mine like my own babies (because they absolutely are!) and I’d be so excited to treat yours with the same love, care, and respect.
“Esmeralda and her family took very good care of our Spider. She sent us some photos and updates to stay connected which we really appreciate. She was also available with short notice and we would definitely let Spider stay with her again. When we arrived for pickup, Spider was relaxing in his bed in the living room, very calm and obviously very comfortable at Esmeralda's house. :) Excellent care”
“Rachel did a superb job taking care of our 15 month old pup for two weeks! She went above and beyond making sure that Rio was comfortable, entertained and safe. She provided ample pics and updates. She even did puppy “artwork” with her, which we got to keep. I was amazed at this level of care, which allowed me to not worry a bit. Priceless.”
“Rachael was very accommodating in caring for our 1.5 yr larger puppy and was great in keeping us updated and sending pictures. We felt assured leaving our furry friend with her and rebook without hesitation.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Golden home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Golden.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Golden sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NM ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
