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! Currently working from home my schedule is flexible the goal is to accommodate you when you need it the most because life happens! 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.

“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!”

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!

About: I have had animals since I was a child, and I have worked in a veterinary assistant position for almost 4 years, so whatever attention your older or younger animals need, I can also provide. I am a full-time college student, so my schedule will vary between semesters, and between weeks. However, I am more than willing to verify my schedule with you if there are any questions. I live in a small apartment with my cat and reptiles, so having other animals here is not worth it in my opinion. So I have no problems with going over.

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.

About: Dogs are my best friends. Rover is a blessing in the fact I can do what I love and love to do and that is care and talk to dogs. My home and time are available 24 hours a day. For a pet owner to have a 24 hour emergency or non emergency sitter is awesome and that’s what I can provide My house is poodle proof!! I can handle when the dog is to smart for their britches and I can handle slower and meaner dogs. :).

About: Hi! My name is Andrea, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for many different kinds of pets. I currently have two dogs and three cats of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I’ve had pets throughout my entire life and have spent several years pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just hanging out, I always make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’m experienced in administering different types of medications to cats and understand the patience and gentle approach it takes to make the process as stress-free as possible for our furry friends. I’m also happy to follow any specific care instructions to ensure your pet receives the attention they need. I’m currently a masters student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I know it can be super hard to be away from those we love and that every pet has their own unique personality and routine, so I’m committed to following your instructions carefully to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care and give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for regular check-ins, walks, playtime, and overnight stays. Since I’m able to bring my schoolwork with me, I can comfortably spend extended time in your home while still keeping up with my studies and, most importantly, providing your pets with companionship and care. The safety and comfort of your pets is my top priority. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure to follow their normal routines and your specific instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own home and pets.

We, as stated before in earlier reviews, heartily recommend Jennifer to everyone seeking good care of your dogs/pets. She is detail oriented in providing the care we have requested and gives our Goldens the attention and love they need when we are away. Jennifer has a number of times gone the extra mile, i.e. picking up the lawn for our pups to run in without stepping in poo, washing the food/water bowls regularly, contacting me if towels were available when it rained on a drop-in visit so she could dry the dogs. This last trip we were delayed twice on the day we were due home and she extended visits without hesitation; then when there was a conflict in the schedules the next morning she offered to help find another sitter for us. We appreciate Jennifer very much!

We were excited to find Pam and Kat through Rover. We knew as soon as we met them that our cats would be in good hands. Pam and Kat took care of our cat while we were out of town for 4 nights. It was our first time leaving our cat completely alone in our house--our other cat recently passed away--and we were very nervous about how he might behave. The daily Rover reports from Pam and Kat were very helpful--it was so nice to see pictures of our cat playing and being happy. Thank you!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Mesilla

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mesilla is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $29 per visit. On Rover, 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 232 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mesilla. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mesilla. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
