About: Hello, my name is Leevi. Since I was young, I have always been the one taking care of the family pets. I love all animals, and taking care of them. I have leashed and behaviorally trained multiple dogs for friends and family, as well as served as the designated animal watcher for both cats and dogs for friends and family. I have also raised multiple jumping spiders and lizards. I care about the needs of all animals; seeing them happy makes me happy. I work full-time from 5:00 p.m. to midnight, with Wednesdays and Thursdays off. Despite my evening work schedule, I maintain an active lifestyle and enjoy staying productive throughout the day. As soon as I wake up, I am usually on the move, whether I am exercising, running errands, handling personal responsibilities, or spending time outdoors. I value making the most of my mornings and early afternoons before beginning my shift. I will care for your fur baby with the same patience, attention, and affection I have always given my own pets—as a valued member of the family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, and I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate care that helps them feel safe and comfortable while you are away. I have hands-on experience training and caring for several of my family’s dogs. My experience includes leash training, reinforcing positive behaviors, administering oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing regular walks and playtime. I am comfortable following specific care instructions and adapting to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and daily routine. I am also attentive to the ways dogs communicate their needs. Whether a dog is feeling stressed, hungry, excited, tired, overheated, or simply in need of reassurance, I recognize the importance of observing their body language and behavior closely. I prioritize safe walks, hydration, a calm environment, and plenty of positive interaction to ensure each dog receives the care and attention they deserve.

About: I grew up in rural Texas. Ialways had dogs and cats, and ive always connected with them. My step-dad loved Chows, so they were in my life since I was a small child. I dont think there has been a time where there were no animals in my life. I got laid off in July. My schedule is pretty open, and im trying this out. I do pet sitting in my off time when I am employed, so now I'm just jumping into this head first. I have a home with a big, fenced in back yard. My cat is an indoor kitty, as I live right by Paseo and also a coyote den. I make sure our babies are super safe.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I have experience with both energetic dogs and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that means long walks, playtime, or a slower pace with extra attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing plenty of affection, supervision, fresh water, exercise, and updates while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer oral medications if needed, reinforce basic training routines, and accommodate any special instructions so your pet receives the care they’re used to at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and sitting while maintaining a reliable routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by treating every pet like my own. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, provide a clean environment, and make sure they receive attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel secure while you’re away.

“It was a pleasure working with Amanda. She was here when she said she would be. Very prompt which was important due to the fact that our cat Speedy needs his meds at the same time each day. She cleaned up after feedings of wet food and sent pix of our boys, which was really nice to receive. I would recommend Amanda to friends and family. Thank you Amanda! ;o)”

Seven Bar North, Albuquerque, NM, 87114

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. Since I was 12, it’s been my responsibility to take care of our English Setter. This began with me helping to train him. My role was to reinforce the lessons taught at the PetSmart classes. I’ve regularly walked, bathed, and taken to the vet our dog as well. I love animals of all kinds and care a lot about giving them the loving attention they deserve. I currently work part time 6 days a week, with Sundays off. I work from home, and regularly have mornings and early afternoons completely available. I have more than enough time for several appointments just about every day of the week. At the moment I do not own any pets, as my landlord does not allow it. I am unable to provide any services that would require my home. But I’ve lived with and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, with great regularly since I was 12. I know what I’m doing when it comes to our furry companions. I’d love to provide walks, visits, and any other services I can.

About: My family has a history of adopting older dogs and rescues with health and behavioral problems, so I have lots of experience with senior dogs and dogs who need extra care and attention. Rover is my full time job. I usually work weekday mornings and afternoons, but I'm happy to work with clients individually to come up with a schedule that works. Let me come to you! I can't accommodate pets in my home or car, so I will come to your home to care for and spend quality time with your furry friends!

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my day-to-day. I’ve also cared for rabbits and understand their unique needs and temperaments. I’ve volunteered at several animal shelters over the years, and I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years. As a result, I’m very familiar with general animal care, handling, and behavior. I’m also experienced in administering medications when needed, so you can feel confident your pet is in capable, compassionate hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m living van life with my two cats, and my boyfriend travels with me, so pets get double the attention! I also have two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medications, and handling a variety of care needs. My schedule is fully flexible, allowing us to adjust our day around each pet’s routine and provide consistent care, play, and companionship wherever we are. I am currently unable to board pets in my own home as I am traveling. However, I have full availability and can help with your pet in a variety of ways. Just let me know what you need, and we can work something out!

August gives both kitties the kind of attention they want. One is playful and the other is quiet but loves his rubs. They each get what they need and seem quite content when we are gone. Communication is easy and when our return flight was delayed, a quick text was: sent and the kitties got an extra visit. Have been very happy with the care August gives our two little ones. Definitely a 5 star.

Amber dropped in to feed/play with our cats while we were away and she was fantastic! We received the best check-in descriptions and pictures we’ve ever gotten. Our cats really liked her (even our less affectionate cat warmed up to her)! I’d give Amber a 12 out of 10!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque on Rover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $35 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 464 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Los Ranchos de Albuquerque. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.

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 Meet & Greet .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
