About: Can care for any type of cat personality, from love-y and playful to the skittish and scaredy. I also have experience administering medication for cats. Open to small dog care too! Graduating college going into working a freelance job, event-based so I have periods of free time and flexibility. Feel free to ask about my availability! I would care for your cat as if it was my own. I would clean the litter boxes and throw-up if your kitty is sick. I can administer pill and liquid medication for the mouth. Then I will also play with your cat as to make sure it gets its energy out, and even offer supervised outside time desired.
“Jessica was fantastic—super responsive and communicated clearly throughout. Our dogs loved their morning walks while we were away, and we’ll absolutely reach out to her again for future trips.”
“Jennifer is always on time and sends pictures of the pups with updates. I like how she responds instantly as well. I can tell the pups enjoy their walks when we come home from work. Thank you Jennifer for what you do!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail, reliability, and genuine love for animals at every stage of life. I don’t just “watch” pets — I care for them as if they were my own. I understand that each animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe and happy. I have experience working with both young and senior pets. With puppies and young dogs, I am patient and consistent with basic training reinforcement, including potty routines, leash manners, and positive behavior habits. I know how important structure is during those early months, and I make sure to maintain the routine you’ve established. For senior pets, I provide gentle, attentive care and closely monitor mobility, medication schedules, and comfort needs. I understand that older animals often need extra patience, slower walks, and more frequent check-ins, and I’m comfortable administering oral medications if needed.
“Jazmin is responsible, dependable and caring. She is alert about plants that are dangerous for dogs and vigilant about keeping our dogs safe. She is kind and my dogs love her. I am so grateful for her since I have a chronic illness and can’t walk them like I used to. She really is the best!!”
“Allison is sweet and very kind. We felt comfortable with her and her communications. She followed our instructions for our dog (considerations for the heat, misting her down, checking her food and water, where to take her) and we know Gypsy was well taken care of. Recommend her and we'll book her again when we're back in the area.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the deep respect, love, and attention I give every animal in my care. I truly believe animals show us how to love, live in the moment, and connect with the world around us. Because of that, I see caring for pets as more than a job — it’s a responsibility I take seriously and a relationship I genuinely value. My dedication to their care, comfort, and protection makes me a strong advocate for their joy and safety. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, routine, and emotional needs so they feel secure, understood, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, including energetic young pets who need patience, consistency, and exercise, as well as senior pets who benefit from gentleness, extra monitoring, slower walks, medication support, and calm companionship. Whether a pet wants to play, cuddle, explore, or simply rest quietly nearby, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is always to create a peaceful, loving environment where pets are treated like family and owners feel complete peace of mind. Every day starts with pets first. The morning begins with fresh water, a snack if needed, and then straight outside to the fenced backyard for a potty break. For dogs, the next part of the routine is one of my favorites — a 3–4 mile walk to help them get exercise, stimulation, and a happy start to their day. After the walk, we settle in for breakfast if that’s part of their routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets are never left without attention for long. While I’m cleaning, kitchen prepping, or working around the house, I take frequent breaks for cuddles, playtime, and backyard visits. Whether it’s dogs or cats, I make sure every pet gets regular affection, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I truly enjoy creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. I care with attention, intention and detail. I check in often and spend time just sitting with and talking to. I give So much LOVE.
“Anna was lovely and so helpful when we were in a pinch. She walked and played with our two pups daily, arrived on time, and communicated regularly. Anna also went above and beyond what we asked of her. Super happy with the care she provided.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker! She took good care of my dog and was great with communication and sending me videos of my baby!! Definitely will be booking again!”
About: I absolutely love dogs and come from a family of dog lovers. For almost 40 years, I’ve adopted, rescued, and cared for dogs since I was a little girl. I’ve worked at the Humane Society as an adoption counselor, and I’ve babysat countless dogs for friends and family — caring for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. My home is designed with dogs in mind. I have a very large, secure yard built so my dogs can’t get out and nothing else can get in. Inside, animals are treated like people — as part of the family. My own dog loves to nap in the sun and find cozy spots in every room, and your pup will feel just as welcome. I offer boarding, daycare, walks, hiking, and grooming add-ons like brushing and baths. You’ll receive daily photo updates, and I always follow feeding, medication, and routine instructions exactly. As an educator by trade and a compassionate individual, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a true passion for animals to every interaction. Whether your dog needs playful enrichment, gentle senior care, or just a safe, loving place to stay, I’d be honored to be their trusted sitter. I work full-time from home, so I’m here throughout the day and night to care for your pup. My large, secure backyard is always open, giving dogs the freedom to come and go as they please. Access to the backyard is available all day for the dogs and they can freely go in and out as needed. I have a safe and secure home where dogs are allowed on the furniture and in every room of the house. I do not smoke or do any drugs and will ensure the safety, love, and care of your dogs. My home is a quiet, calm, and serene environment.
About: Throughout my life, I've had the pleasure of forming close bonds with a diverse array of dog and cat companions. This firsthand experience has given me valuable insight into the unique needs and behaviors of different breeds and personalities. Whether it's providing enriching playtime for energetic pups or offering soothing companionship to shy or senior cats, I understand the individualized care required to ensure their well-being and happiness. My deep connection with these beloved animals has equipped me with the knowledge and empathy needed to properly care for them, making me a reliable and compassionate caretaker for your cherished pets. As a dedicated high school senior, I am passionate about pet care and currently work part-time in a pet sitting role as well as a bather and brusher. I am available from 5:30 am to 6 am and from 11 am to 8 pm, ensuring that I can provide attentive care during the early morning and throughout the day. With a genuine love for animals and a strong work ethic, I am committed to delivering reliable and compassionate pet care whenever needed. When it comes to caring for my own pets, I prioritize their well-being and happiness above all else. I provide them with love, attention, and compassionate care, ensuring that their physical and emotional needs are met. Additionally, I understand the importance of discipline and training, as I have successfully addressed and corrected challenging behaviors through patient and extensive training methods. In caring for other people's pets, I apply the same level of love, compassion, and dedication that I give to my own animals. I am committed to fulfilling every request made by the pet owner, ensuring that their beloved companions receive the same standard of care that I would expect for my own pets. Whether it's adhering to specific feeding schedules, administering medication, providing regular exercise, or addressing any behavioral issues, I approach each pet with empathy and respect, striving to create a safe and nurturing environment for them. By leveraging my personal experiences and the high standards I hold for my own pets, I am well-equipped to meet the unique needs of every animal in my care. I am dedicated to building trust with both the pets and their owners, providing peace of mind and a sense of security while they are in my care.
About: I provide an safe haven for all my fury and non-fury friends. I provide an clean safe space and make sure all is provided for all my fury friends. One of my first job was house-sitting and taking care of necessities around the house as well as the owner's pets. I not only clean and help around the house but I also make sure the dogs are fed, getting in their exercise and etc. I also take them on walks and make sure they are comfortable with me first, because dogs can sense if people are actually decent and kind beings. I have always been around animals my entire life and would not mind getting a little dirty and fun with them. It's no fun when your always clean at least for a dog's point of view. Loll

About: I have three years of experience working at a dog rescue, where I took care of anywhere from 10 to 100 dogs and puppies at a time! I grew up on a small farm surrounded by cats, dogs, horses, goats and chickens, and I helped take care of them from the time I was able to. Now, I have no pets of my own, but I love and cherish being able to shower other people’s pets with love and attention! My work schedule is one week on, one week off, and I travel during work days, so I am only able to care for pets on my off days. I love pampering pets that I’m taking care of and making them feel cozy and at ease while their owner is away. I love taking dogs for walks and live in a fairly quiet neighborhood.

Allison has been my dog walker for over two months, and I couldn't be happier! She comes three days a week, and my dog absolutely loves her. He gets so excited when he sees her and will actually wait by the front door when he knows she is coming. It’s clear that he has formed a special bond with her, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. She is also incredibly dependable and caring. She has been wonderful about giving him his medication when needed and always treats him with patience and kindness. I truly appreciate knowing that he is not only getting his walks but also getting lots of love and attention while I’m gone. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring to take care of their pets. I am so lucky to have found her! 🐾❤️
Anna was superb! She was very caring and loving with our elderly dog. Also, because she is studying to be a physician, she was an excellent choice in pet sitters to help walk our dog with arthritis and provide him with eye medication. She was very thorough and professional at all times, and very friendly. She always kept her word and arrived early and spent extra time. Our little dog fell in love with her! She asked numerous questions and made sure she provided exactly the care that we were asking her to do for our dog. Her photos and descriptions of each of the walks with our dog were very helpful while we were out of state. This was our first time using Rover. Anna earned an A+ with us! She made us feel very comfortable in our absence. We would definitely use Anna again, and so would our dog Guinness!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Las Cruces. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
