About: I’ve taken care of many different animals over the years from fish to chickens and horses. I’ve worked with all sorts of dogs from Chihuahuas to Cane Corsos and I love them all. I have taken a job where the dog was very protective of their home and have made multiple visits before the sitting began to allow them to be comfortable around me. I’ve worked with elderly dogs that need to be given medication and I have experience giving animals shots as well if needed! I am happy to provide references as well if that would make you feel safer about trusting me with your furry loved ones! I am currently a first year student at NMSU in Las Cruces and my schedule for this semester is consistent throughout the week so I am able to make morning and evening check ins for your pets and make adjustments as needed! My usual routine when going to check on pets varys according to the owners but every visit I make it a point to play with all of the animals and take them on walks when needed and ensuring all of their needs are met!
About: Even though I'm fairly new to dog care, I approach every dog with patience, attentiveness, and a strong willingness to learn and very detail oriented. I structure my daily routine around cat pet care, so it's never an afterthought. I start my mornings with feeding, refreshing water, which fits naturally into my day. Midday, I schedule check-ins for playtime or litter box cleaning. In the evenings, I dedicate time for feeding and quality interaction. I care for pets in my clients' homes by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, playtime, and cleaning up after them. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. I respect the clients home by keeping everything clean and secure, and I provide regular updates so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are safe and well cared for.
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

I will follow every instruction that is told to me while i’m in the clients home. I will also go above and beyond to make sure the client and pet is satisfied.

About: My name is Erin all my life there’s been a dog at my side and to this day that love for all animals has never faded. Currently work from home my schedule is open to assist with walks, drops in, and overnight/extended stays. Additionally I would love to help provide meals, play a game or two, and can administer oral medications if needed. My experience has been obtained through training my own rescue dogs helping to build their confidence, teach proper leash etiquette, and through these experiences have mastered how to read dogs body language. If you have a nervous pooch, super senior, and or a large breed don’t hesitate to reach out. The ultimate goal is to provide care with the same love and attentiveness given to my animals whether it’s a drop in, walk, or house sit let meet up to see if I’m the right fit for you!

Everyday except Saturdays is open for appointments so let’s set up a meet and greet I might be the right fit for your family. Open for early/late morning walks, mid day walks, and or drop ins throughout the day. My hope is to make life easier for you! First and foremost the animals are always my priority, your residence will be treated as my own, and all associated surroundings will be given the respect it commands. Be assured all expectations you set for your fur baby will be executed with empathy, professionalism, and patience. Animals have been a constant within my life for as far back as I can remember rest easy knowing I’m excited to provide care and you’ll have me in your corner when you need it the most.

About: I've had experience taking care of dogs since I was 14. I've been relied on by several people I know to care for their pets and house sit for them while they're away and there have never been any hiccups! More recently I have also gained cat care experience! I am currently in my first year of graduate school and trying to make some money to help get me through! My weekdays are fairly busy but weekends are almost always free to hangout and take of all furry friends! I would be very accommodating to any pets needs and be very sure they stick to their schedule while being loved on. I will be more than happy to abide by any home rules and ensure everything is taken care of!
“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.”

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.

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.
