“Janet was amazing. She did twice-daily drop-in visits and made sure my cat got her medication and supplements at the right times. More than that, though, she was great with with my cat, figured out her habits, and accommodated her whims. I was gone for ten days, and they developed their own routine. Janet sent lots of photos, so I knew my cat was doing well. I highly recommend her and will have her look after Tacy again in the future.”
“Our family had a medical emergency that lasted 4 weeks. I had never used a pet sitter before. Sarah took such amazing care of my fur kids, I am so glad I found her on Rover.”
“She did an amazing job taking care of my cats over the holidays. The daily photos showed how happy they were, she played with them, and even vacuumed their area without being asked. I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her care.”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs for just over 6 years and ran my own petting sitting business before I moved. I can administer medicine, do training reinforcement, and care for senior dogs and dogs of all temperaments. I am currently a full time student but am taking a variety of online classes so I have lots of time during the weekday and weekends. This also allows me to be free in the afternoons often. I provide dependable pet care including daily walks, overnight stays, training reinforcement, and medication/wound care. I have consistently built lasting relationships with families through frequent, responsible service.
About: "With years of experience caring for a variety of animals, I'm a responsible and compassionate pre-vet student eager to provide top-notch pet sitting services. From dogs and cats to birds and reptiles, I'm comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes. Trust me to give your furry, scaly, or feathered friend the love and attention they deserve while you're away." I am available most days let me know your schedule and I will try and work on a solution for both of us. I have class from 9am- 12pm but I am able to work before or after class. I have many pets, no pet is to small or to big. I have worked with dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, birds, and I am willing to care for any pet you call family.
“Savannah took care of our 4 dogs while we were gone on vacation. She kept us informed and sent many pictures. Savannah displays a love for animals and our dogs really like her. Our scared yorkie even warmed up to her and that is a real accomplishment. We will definitely book her in the future.”
“Amy did a great job watching our cat. Our cat can be a bit elusive, but Amy made an extra effort to connect with him and make him comfortable. She was also very helpful in offering to take care of plants & bring in package delivery. Daily pictures & texts made us feel comfortable. I would definately recommend Amy.”
About: I have been around a variety of animals most of my life. I am currently training my dog to be a service animal and have previously had a senior dog. With my senior dog, I provided loving care and support as his mobility changed. I am currently minoring in companion animal science, with the intent to become a physical therapist for animals. I am currently a full-time student at NMSU as well as a part-time employee at NMSU. My availability will vary depending on the semester. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have questions about the hours I am available. I can provide potty breaks throughout the day, afternoon walks, kennel them if needed, house sitting, and provide picture updates if you are missing your fur babies.
About: I’m not as experienced in caring for dogs. However, I am flexible and willing to learn and help out wherever I am needed. I am more comfortable with small dogs for now. I’m a substitute teacher during the school year, so while school is out, I have plenty of time to drop in to give your pets companionship and care. In my own home I do my best to always make sure my cat has several sources of water and a clean litter box and plenty of ways to entertain herself while I’m away. While caring for others’ pets I make sure to follow instructions closely and follow established routines.
“Rachel is sweet and so kind to the pets. I felt very comfortable going out of town knowing she would come check in on my cats. Excellent first experience with the app and Rachel’s services.”
“Jasmine was great! She did everything I asked, was prompt, and great with communication. She was conscientious and communicated any concerns she had. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I've been caring for animals for over six years and have experience with a wide variety of pets. In addition to being a dedicated pet owner, I have hands-on experience as a veterinary technician, where I learned how to recognize signs of illness, safely handle animals, administer medications, and provide attentive, compassionate care. I've also provided pet sitting services for dogs, cats, and exotic pets, tailoring my care to each animal's unique personality and needs. Whether it's keeping energetic dogs active, making shy cats feel comfortable, or caring for reptiles, birds, or other exotic species, I prioritize safety, routine, and enrichment. I understand how important it is for pets to feel secure while their owners are away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced and capable hands. Between being a full-time student and working part-time, I still have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets! My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever I can! I'm a big believer that pets thrive on consistency, so I'll work with you to keep their routine as normal as possible while you're away. Whether your pet needs an early morning visit, dinner time cuddles, or anything in between, I'm happy to help! Your pet's happiness and safety will always be my top priority. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would expect someone to show my own, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine so they can feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you're away. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, going on walks, or giving medications, I'll follow your instructions carefully and make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve. I know every pet is different, so I'm happy to adapt to their personality, whether they want nonstop playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to keep them company. I'll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. My previous veterinary technician experience allows me to recognize changes in behavior or health and stay calm if something unexpected comes up, giving you extra peace of mind. Above all, I want you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being cared for like they're one of my own
About: I grew up on a farm just outside of hutch, so we had a large variety of animals, including but not limited to cats, dogs, and even a tortise at one point! I’d love to help meet all your needs and your animals needs in anyway possible! I recently moved to new mexico, but i am at home all day everyday! I am currently a travel nurse, but I am home a lot with my schedule, so my 5 cats and 1 dog, all are fully vaccinated get a lot of one on one time. But I love taking care of animals so that’s why I’m doing this. It fits really well into my ever changing routine. I currently live in a 56 foot Sanibel camper, but it is a pet friendly camper. My 5 cats Jezabell, Bogey, Penner, Don Julio, and Eve are very friendly and easy to get along with. They have free range food, as i tried to limit it and it just wasn’t working for them so Im trying this and it seems to work very well for them. They also have whatever they could ever want in water and toys, and I clean their litter boxes at least once a day to make them happier :) Ripley goes on walks morning and night, and is out of her kennel all day with me most days. But she is crate trained and very respectful but also playful!
About: I am twenty seven years old, and I have had many years of dog care experience, I worked at three different animal care facilities as a teen. (Lucys doggy daycare, Becker Animal Hospital and Retreat, and Pet supplies Plus) Dogs are my life. I have an open schedule, no tie downs other than my children! I am a stay at home mommy! I am still teaching my young children the boundaries that animals have, but you can rest assured knowing there will be no ear or tail pulling. I have a very safe and fun yard with tons of shade and turf, and I cannot wait to get to play with your fur baby! I am a stay at home mom with two small children. They are currently being taught animals boundaries, they will never be left alone with your animal. You can trust that they will be protected from ear or tail pulling! I have a small fenced yard around my house and an additional fenced in yard around my entire property. I have poultry and small children, but your animal will be cared for properly and with love.
“Nicole was very friendly and communicative, she spent time with each of my 4 pets and ensured they all received some attention. Even though my dogs need a second to warm up to new people, she was quick in problem-solving by using their toys and treats to warm them up. Very happy she was able to check-in on them while I transition into my new fully on-site position!”
“Bonnie did an amazing job taking care of my diabetic, anxious cat while I was away. She even did the dishes, and followed up to make sure I was able to make it home safely through the storms. Her wisdom and intuition after 17 years working in veterinary care are priceless. Many thanks!”
About: I’ve gained most of my experience working directly with animals in a veterinary clinic, where I assist with daily care, handling, and monitoring of pets. I regularly work with dogs of all sizes and personalities everything from playful puppies to senior dogs that need a gentler approach. A big part of my role is also helping care for boarding pets at the clinic. I assist with feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and ensuring medications are given accurately and on schedule. This has given me strong experience maintaining routines and providing attentive, reliable care for pets staying away from home. Outside of the clinic, I’ve also cared for pets in home settings, making sure they stay on their normal routine, get proper exercise, and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to balance structure with a calm, loving environment. I am a pre vet college student right, I have lots of free time during the weekend. I am available to house sit in the comfort of your home on the weekends Friday-sundays. I also offer dog walk during the week, more availability in the weekends. I approach pet care with a focus on safety, trust, and comfort. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I work closely with each pet parent to understand your dog’s routine, preferences, and needs. My goal is to create a calm, secure environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. Every dog is different, so I take time to build trust and adjust my care based on their personality. Whether it’s sticking to their walk schedule, maintaining their feeding routine, or helping them feel less anxious while you’re away — I work with you to create a plan that supports their well-being.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mesilla
Jennifer is truly the best pet sitter we could ask for. She consistently goes above and beyond every single time she cares for our home and our pets. We have two very antisocial dogs who don’t warm up to many people, a very clingy cat who loves attention, and Jennifer somehow manages to meet each of their individual needs with so much patience and care. We always come home to happy pets, a well-cared-for home, and complete peace of mind. I can’t recommend Jennifer highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, and always willing to go the extra mile, Jennifer is the one to call. We are so grateful to have found her!
Allison was amazing! From the first meeting to the completion of the booking, she was absolutely perfect. Great attitude and personality. My Rose loved her from the start. I will definitely be rebooking with her the next time I have to leave out of town!! Thank you so much, Allison for being amazing....
Pam and Kath were absolutely wonderful. We needed a mid-day visit because we didn't want to leave our dog alone. They stayed with her an hour, which was exactly what we needed. Later in the day they checked in with us to make sure we were back home. That's incredibly thoughtful and showed us how responsible and caring they are.
Kellie was absolutely wonderful. She did a great job of updating me and providing pics of my dogs to let me know they were doing well. When I got back they were happy and healthy. She saved my bacon, allowing me to go to my sister's wedding, while putting my mind at ease that my dogs were getting the necessary care. She went above and beyond on that front, and I'm incredibly grateful for her care of my dogs.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mesilla stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Mesilla 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Mesilla with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 sitter.
