“This was the second time Maria has watched our dogs, & I couldn’t be any happier with how well she took care of my 2 dogs. She arrived promptly, gave me updates especially important updates about my dogs, & most importantly, my dogs still remembered her & were so happy to see her. Definitely will book her again in the future. Thank you Maria!”


“My boys were so well taken care of! They really enjoyed the play time, and everything went super well! I really enjoyed getting photos of my kitties, it lifted my spirits so much knowing that they had Pam and Kathryn there to care for and play with them!”


“Shannan did such an amazing job watching my two cats! With every visit I got an update and multiple pictures of them. I could tell she genuinely cared about them! She is very good with cats. Even my shy cat was all over her when she first came to learn how to take care of them!”


“I had a weird situation in which the person caring for my animals abandoned them. Michelle was amazing and accommodating, went to my home after maintenence unlocked my place, cleaned up the mess my stressed out old man kitty made in a tub because he was alone for 4 days. Took care of him and the other 3 at the last minute for a week so I didn't have to leave my job (loose my job) and fly home. I was the most stressed out I'd been in years! But seeing the pics she took of my babies eating fresh wet food and playing every day helped me so much. 10000% recommend her and appreciate her and Rover for being here!! This is great app. Being able to see them check in and out, they can post photos and communicate like texting. Really great and will use again instead of depending on family!!”


“This was my first experience using Rover.com. Jasmine is AMAZING. I chose her over many others because of her reviews. She walked me through everything. She afforded me the ability to have peace of mind while I was away from my boys. She was extremely responsive to any questions I had and she just made leaving my boys at home a lot easier. She sent me pictures of her visits. She even left ME a thank you note and some gifts for my dogs upon the completion of the job. I can't say thank you enough and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jasmine to take care of your fur-babies!”


“Rebekah is fantastic. Used her multiple times. Completely trustworthy and somehow manages to make time even at the last minute (though I’m sure we all try to not do at all). Greatly appreciate everything she does.”


“Amy Rae is very kind and patient with a nervous “cat mom” (me). She took very good care of my senior kitty who needs a little extra to feel safe. I will continue to book any her any time we need a sitter.”


About: Give your pets the compassionate care they deserve when you're away! My 15 years of hands-on pet-sitting experience, combined with over a decade of personal pet ownership, means your furry family members will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a special affinity for senior pets, understanding their unique routines and comforts, thanks to my experience with my older cat. Let me provide the peace of mind you need, knowing your pets are happy, safe, and loved in my care. Currently going to school so I have plenty of time to check on your furr babies throughout the day. I am free early in the morning and evening. Rest assured, your cats and dogs will be in experienced and playful hands! My own two sweet indoor cats thrive with plenty of toys and two large scratchers, so I understand the importance of keeping indoor felines happy and entertained. I absolutely adore playing with my own cats and dogs, and I'll bring that same genuine love and active engagement to your pets, making sure they feel secure and well-cared for in their own environment.

“Bethany was sensitive to our unique needs with our pets and took great care of them while we were away! I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her again with future pet sitting needs. Thanks Bethany!”


About: Hey there! I'm Tara Marksberry, and I absolutely adore animals! With 15 years of experience in pet sitting, veterinary offices, shelters, and boarding facilities, I've had the joy of working closely with furry friends of all kinds. I'm certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I pride myself on being dedicated, punctual, and loving in all aspects of pet care. Your furry companions deserve nothing but the best, and I'm here to ensure they receive just that. Thanks for your time, and have a wonderful day! I work full time from 8:00am to 5:00pm on the east side of Albuquerque. I am completely comfortable staying in your home and will generally remain there unless I’m running to the store or heading to grab something for dinner. Depending on the proximity of your home to my employer I may be able to conduct afternoon drop in visits. Early morning feeding or medication schedules are no problem! While at your home your pets safety is my first priority. I will never leave your pet unattended in the yard and make a habit of checking gates and fences while we’re outside. I will never open the front door in a manner that could allow a pet to escape and will not invite any unauthorized guests or my personal pets into your home. I like to provide picture updates to you throughout the stay so you can rest easy knowing your pets are happy and healthy. I do prefer to have written care instructions to reference so I make sure I’m taking the best possible care of your pets.


“Diana and Mark are absolute rock stars! They went above and beyond in caring for my pups, showing professionalism and punctuality in every interaction. They connected wonderfully with my dogs, providing them with the attention and care they needed. I highly recommend Diana and Mark to anyone looking for top-notch pet sitters—I'm so happy to have found them. They're fantastic!”


About: I love all animals and have extensive experience with cats and dogs, from personally owning them myself to volunteering with local shelters. I have done it all. I am pretty flexible. My daily routine already includes taking care of my 5 rescue cats, which includes feeding them and cleaning their litter areas. I like to make sure I make the pets feel at ease however I can. I know this experience can be anxiety-inducing, and I am patient with all kinds of personalities.

About: I have a dog for over 13 years he is now a senior dog and I just recently got a puppy that I trained to go potty, sit, stay, paw, lay down. Having a senior and a puppy has given me a lot of patient, carefulness and caring for them. It has taught me that different pets have different needs and are very different from each other. I can assure you I can take care of your pet without you having to worry. I currently go to college but I am available after 12 everyday. I have a lot of free time and I am willing to have dogs stay nights. I currently live in a apartment but it has a dog park, I have a 3 month old puppy but is very friendly and if not friendly I can keep them separate while still having fun.

“Alexa made sure my cat was well taken care of. She communicates frequently to keep me updated and sends photos of the cat while in her care. All her services are greatly appreciated.”


About: I have owned several of my own dogs and 1 cat named Chica and also taken care of other people's dogs all my life. I have had several mixed dogs, I chihuahua, and 1 german shepherd. I have taken my friend's dog for walks to get the nervous energy out of him so he won't be so high strung. I'm currently working from 6am to about 3 pm Monday thru Fridays. I am available after 3pm, and available Friday evenings and Saturday in the day. I live in an apartment that does not allow pets, so I won't be able to board pets in my apartment. I have no pets of my own at this time.

It was my first time using a sitter so I was a bit nervous but Jessica really bonded quickly with Rocco and kept me updated regularly to ease my mind! She is very responsible and trustworthy.

Las Cruces pet parents share their Rover experiences
I knew that my cats were in good hands under Julie's care. She was very cognizant of the timing of the medication that one of my cats needs and kept me updated on how they were doing. Photos were received every day so I could see how the fun they were having with her. I will definitely look to Julie to come take care of my cats again.

We were so happy to find Blayne to help us with our senior dog, Scooter! We were traveling through the area in our RV & needed someone to drop in to check on Scooter while we were sightseeing. Blayne was so helpful & flexible and knew how to help with Scooter's senior needs. We highly recommend!
