“Kyle and Sara took such good care of our boy!! We received daily updates and pictures of his activities while we were gone. We are so thankful we have someone to leave him with when we travel that treats him so well!”
“Danielle provided excellent care for our Lilly. We appreciated the pictures updating us on how Lilly was doing during her stay. Also, we appreciated Danielle's extra attention and care since Lilly did get a bit of an upset stomach during her stay. Lilly was in great spirits when we returned from our trip and no doubt it was because of Danielle's care for her.”
“Robert was more than helpful with a short notice booking request. My dog can be a little standoff-ish with people; but, my dog had a great time with him and his family. There was definitely a lot of play time as my dog came home and zonked right out for the day. I definitely recommend Robert and his family and I will definitely be going back!”
About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Candice was very accommodating as this was our first Rover booking. We were nervous about leaving our dog as he has never been kenneled but it worked out perfect. Candice has other small dogs and our dog seemed curious and relaxed after arriving. I would highly recommend Candice and she seems to genuinely care about animals.”
“Danielle does such a great job taking care of our emotionally and medically complex elderly dog. We’ll feel secure in knowing our dog is well cared for whenever she stays with Danielle.”
“Our doggie had such a great time with Jacob!! Their dog Mango was such a great buddy and we got many great pic and video updates. Super responsive and communicative. Great vibes, highly recommend!”
About: I have trained two large breed puppies as well as cared for and walked dogs of all sizes. I absolutely love getting outside with all dogs! My schedule is very open, I am currently in nursing school and have a long day on Monday, but aside from that I am around the house frequently and am available. I am very caring for everyone’s pup and will follow all instructions and exceed those as well. I love to get outside and go for walks, hikes, or even just throw the ball!
“Julia was awesome! She was super flexible with pickup/dropoff and very friendly! Athena had a great time at her place; when I picked her up she had the biggest smile and I could tell she really enjoyed herself! Julia even sent me some videos of Athena playing with other dogs during the day (: If I’m in the SB area again, will definitely be having Julia sit my dog again!”
About: I have always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m skilled at providing daily walks, feeding, playtime, and general companionship. Whether your pet needs extra snuggles or a high-energy play session, I’m here to ensure they feel loved and well cared for. I can visit 2-3 times a day to feed, walk, or check in on your pet, ensuring they’re happy and cared for while you're away. I’m flexible with my schedule and can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits to fit your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s overnight, daily care or occasional check-ins, I’m here to help! I prioritize creating a safe and stress-free environment for every pet. In your home, I make sure to follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime routines. I ensure your pet stays safe by using secure leashes for walks, monitoring their behavior, and avoiding risky situations.
“Ema took great care of our dog. She's great at communication, and wanted to make sure our dog was comfortable. She was flexible with pickup and drop-off times. I loved the daily photos. So nice to take a trip and not worry about our smallest member of the family. Thank you, Ema!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs, young and old, and think the absolute world of these beautiful animals. I recently parted ways with my soul dog when he passed in March and have missed him every moment since. Despite this loss, I have not lost my love for dogs. Caring for your baby would be an absolute privilege and joy for me, and I promise to love and look out for them as my own. I work in home health healthcare but am typically available every morning before 10am and every afternoon after 4pm. My days can be flexible where I can check in periodically as well— I am happy to coordinate as needed. I’m also off every Wednesday and am available over overnight stays. I welcome dogs into the home as well and am always willing to take them out to the beach, on trails, and any adventures in general!
“So thankful we found Maddison! She had amazing communication from our first message to drop off. Remi looked so happy in all the photos she sent. She went above and beyond to make sure our girl was welcome taken care of. We will definitely use Maddison again in the future.”
About: I currently work as a vet assistant at an animal hospital. My dream is to work as a veterinarian in exotic animal medicine! I am applying to vet school and want to make a career out of caring for animals. I have a lot of knowledge and compassion, and obviously a love for animals! I have taken care of dogs since I was little, whether it be experience with dog walking, taking care of small and big dogs as well as cat sitting. At home I have a well behaved sweet kitty who loves everyone! In addition I have had a small high-maintenance yorkie since I was young. I am currently working part time so I have a lot of time to care for pets and do not get off work very late. They would not be left for very long at all. I have a yard outback and lots of parks/beaches nearby to take your pet to. My house is one story and I always keep it very clean and sanitized!

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 Las Cruces 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 Las Cruces.
<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 Las Cruces 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 CA 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.
