“Lise was amazing. She took such good care of our three dogs in our home and was very caring, made sure to keep a watchful eye on each one of them as there are two elders that need a little more attention, and responsible with not only our pets but with our home. I really appreciate a kind heart and trustful person like Lise. She is my first choice to take care of my pets and I 100% recommend her. Lise, thank you!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Bryne has been great the two times she took care of our pup. Our puppy is happy with her and actually eats! Bryne is now our go-to person whenever we need to leave town without our dog.”
About: I traveled in a van for many years and before I got Richard, I cared for over twenty dogs of all sizes and temperaments all over the country. I still travel by van and offer in-home pet sitting anywhere around the American West. When I lived in Tucson, I volunteered at the shelter and fostered dogs. I will work with the schedule and routines that your dog is used to so they feel safe and secure while you’re away. I’m also an avid hiker and would love to take your pups with me on outdoor adventures if they are up for it. Also happy to take short, gentle walks. I take excellent care of the spaces where I pet sit. I will clean before I leave and will respect your privacy or any of your preferences that we discuss ahead of time.
“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.”
“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: I know it takes a lot of time and energy to give dogs all the love, attention, and exercise they need. I love to get down on the floor and play with dogs, whether it's a game of tug-of-war or a belly rub. I am very attentive to the needs and habits of each pup that I care for. If your dog needs a lot of exercise, I'll be sure they are tuckered out after our walk. If your dog is older, we'll take it easier and I'll be sure they are comfortable. I am also very organized and responsive so you will always be able to get a hold of me. I have over ten years of house sitting and dog sitting experience, with experience from multiple, large high-energy dogs to elderly dogs that need medication administered in scrambled eggs. I am adept at coordinating times to walk or play with your dog. Having grown up with dogs my whole life, I appreciate that a dog is a member of the family, and I take their well-being seriously. Your pets are in good hands! I work at a gallery in Santa Fe on Tuesdays-Sundays, from 10 AM to 5 PM. I have an hour-long lunch, so am available to stop by and let your dog out in the middle of the day. Although I live in Albuquerque, I love taking house sitting gigs in Santa Fe, to take a break from the long commute! Other than my work at the gallery, I tend to hang out at your home when I am watching your pet. Your dog will be sure to get lots of attention.
“Lahna has taken care of my dog on two separate occasions now. I plan on continuing to request her services going forward. She is excellent at communicating which I feel is a priority. I felt at ease while traveling knowing that Lahna would provide photos and updates. She is also very respectful of the home leaving it in wonderful condition. Thank you Lahna, I appreciate you!”
“My dogs were relaxed and happy when we came home after they spent 7 hours with Matthew—they even sat near him and interacted with him after we returned instead of clinging to us because we were gone for the day. He sent us a picture of a fetch game with my dogs. My cat liked him too. We have already booked Matthew for additional petsitting dates—win!”
About: I am a caring and compassionate pet sitter. I love dogs and always given them lots of attention, pets, and overall make sure they are well cared for as will do with the home I do the caretaking in. I follow directions, pay close attention to detail, and I leave your home as I found it. I have been house sitting for 10 plus years. I have lots of references if needed. I am currently a full time house sitter. I work part time online and part time delivering food and groceries. I make sure any dogs I watch are well cared for and I balance my time accordingly. I take them on walks. I can brush their fur. Play with them with their toys and throw balls in the backyard. I feed them accordingly and follow all instructions. I give them lots of attention and love.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 206 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lamy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Lamy 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 Lamy 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.
Tip: 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 Lamy 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
