“My dogs and I loved having Lauren stay with them. She is observant and trustworthy. I can tell how they connect with her that they felt at home with her. My 2 large dogs are high energy and talkative. They have been difficult to manage for friends and family in the past. Lauren was able to communicate with them and set firm boundaries. I really appreciated having her stay, spend time with them, and know they were safe and loved with her.”

“Leah responded to my request quickly and made time for a meet and greet even though it was kind of last minute. She was so sweet with my dog and very communicative. Thank you so much Leah!”

About: Animals are a large part of my life and I enjoy taking care of each one and their particular needs. I have a wide range of experience from livestock to feathered friends and love them all! I am comfortable administering medication, grooming, playing, and loving on indoor and outdoor animals of all ages. I am attentive to detail and will make sure your pets and home are taking care of to the highest degree. Please reach out with any questions and I look forward to giving you peace of mind while you are away. I'm currently on summer vacation, so I will have plenty of time to give your pets attention and love! I am available to drop in for a visit or stay at your home. If I am already booked for a house stay, no worries, I can still check in on your pets! I can send lots of photos and videos to give peace of mind. Your pets will receive the highest quality of care, and I am happy to follow any special instructions for each and every one. I guarantee a save environment and happy animals!

“We love Lam! From the moment we met her, we felt at ease & we could tell our pup felt it too! Definitely recommend - great care & a wonderful person!”

“Colby was an excellent pet sitter! Enjoyable to meet, thoughtful, attentive, responsible. Very sweet with my animals. Sent regular photos and updates and was available for an extra night when I had a flight issue. I highly recommend Colby!”


“Highly, highly recommend! Denise is a caring animal lover with heaps of experience from all her work at the animal humane. My rescue felt comfortable with her very quickly and was well cared for during the week+ that I was away. On top of that, my house was in great condition when I got back. Thanks, Denise, for the daily photos, clear communication, and for being so great at what you do!”

“Juan did a great job with our boy. We got updates and pictures and he was very responsive to any messages we sent while we were away. Took great care of the house as well!”

“Brigit is the BEST! She is my go to when it comes to having someone come and stay at our house and watch our two big dogs. I can be away with so much less stress and not worry.”
“This is our second time using Alexus and she did not disappoint, yet again! She’s so diligent and attentive to our pups every need and more. She goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs don’t even miss us while we are away! She stays on schedule so they don’t feel a change in routine. We are so grateful for her! She is the best and I highly recommend her for loving your fur babies while away. Thank you million’s Alexus!”

About: Before college, I was the primary caregiver for my family’s dog, Max—handling everything from daily walks and feeding to bathing, training, and playtime tailored to his pace and personality. That hands-on experience taught me how to read a dog’s needs and build trust through consistency and care. I’ve also cared for multiple pets through prior sitting experiences, including three dogs of different sizes and three cats, so I’m comfortable adapting to a variety of temperaments, routines, and energy levels. While in college, I’ve continued growing my experience by volunteering with a local shelter’s Doggy Day Out program, taking dogs on walks, hikes, and special outings to give them enrichment and a break from the shelter environment. These experiences have strengthened my ability to care for pets with patience, attentiveness, and genuine enthusiasm. I am currently a student at UNM and working part time, so my evenings are relatively free during the week. Friday afternoons - Sunday mornings are the best time for me to hangout with your pet and care for them full time. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and attention—whether that means long walks, playtime, or just lots of love and cuddles. If you choose house sitting, your pet won’t just be cared for—they’ll have a constant companion who keeps their routine consistent and stress-free. I also love taking pets on little adventures, like trips to nearby parks, to keep them engaged and happy. For your peace of mind, I’m happy to provide daily updates with photos and messages, so you always know your pet is safe, relaxed, and having a great time.
“As always, Ava takes great care of my Tallulah & Dennis. Always prompt and arrives when she says. I’m so appreciative of the great care she gives my 2. Especially my Dennis who doesn’t really like anyone but me. She provides regular updates and communicates often. I’m so appreciative and grateful. She is a blessing.”

“We were out of town when our dog sitter called and she had to go to the hospital. Jamie and Patrick stepped up big time and saved our vacation. I was so worried about my dogs and I was so far away from them, but she assured me not to worry she had it covered. She took exceptional care of my dogs and baked me a pie! They are absolute life savers!!”

“Greg is an amazing house sitter. my dog and cat were very well taken care of . Communication was great and Greg sent pictures and/or videos daily . Will definitely use him again”

“Hoss is amazing!!! They were available on unreasonably short notice when the original sitter I had booked randomly disappeared. Our dogs were obsessed with Hoss from the first moment, and I have no doubt our precious ones felt safe and cared for the entire time. On top of looking after two finicky pups (one is elderly and requires medication, one is shy and stubborn, and they are both bratty), they took great care of our home and made sure to send us updates, even going out of their way to hand feed our little girl her kibbles when she went on hunger strike because of our absence. Hoss is attentive and understanding, a true animal lover. And to top it all off they have a great personality, radiating kindness and fun energy. We would be lucky to have them sit for us again. 10/10 highly recommend.”
“Aarti was amazing! Very knowledgeable and receptive. With her background in vet med, this eased my worries. She was attentive and loving to our two crazy, high energy, wack job Cattle Dogs. She made effort to expend energy safely going out at times when the NM heat wasn't too unbearable for them. She expressed love and concern for our dog's safety and happiness. She had an amazing idea to come to our home when we were getting ready to leave to assist our babies in their transition period. She sent cute pictures regularly and was phenomenal with her communication. I'm typically a super anxious worrywart but I found myself relaxing and enjoying my vacation because she put my mind at such ease. I will be booking her anytime we leave town! She's one in a million!”

“August did an amazing job with our dog and two cats. We were visiting SLC and needed someone to watch our animals over two days while we were at an event. Our dog was very anxious the first night due to 4th of July fireworks and the change of environment but August handled him well and kept him as calm as possible until we returned. He even stayed an extra 30 minutes while my husband was stuck in traffic. By the second day our dog was relaxed while we were gone because he knew August was a safe person. August was communicative throughout both days and kept us updated with photos and notes on how the animals were doing. I highly recommend August to anyone who needs a kind, patient pet sitter.”


About: I’ve been trusted to care for elderly dogs that need medication, to the littles still in potty training. I will follow whatever instructions are left to give the best care. Even if your baby needs their food “cooked” on the stove or need to be tucked in for a story. I’ve raised two dogs of my own and one cat, all who love to play. Ex-teacher on summer break so my schedule is open. I will be starting school in the fall so scheduling will change but I can easily be flexible and respond quickly. I can accommodate crating, open, yards, going for walks, etc. I aim to give your pet consistency so they are safe and comfortable when in my care.

“Vincent was awesome ! Followed all instructions regarding safety and kept our puppy safe and entertained . Our dog can be “difficult” at times but Vincent persevered and was patient with her . He’s great !”

“Colton was incredibly responsive from the moment of booking to updates and everything in between. He took care of our crazy pack and we are so thankful for such a great dog lover. His communication is top tier and it’s clear he wants to do whatever is best for our cherished family members. He was very accommodating to make our schedule work and spend the most time with our dogs. Looking forward to using his services again!”

Plaza Vieja pet parents share their Rover experiences
Greg provided outstanding service for our four dogs and watching and caring for our home while we were gone. He provided frequent updates and pics, and our doggies did well with him. Our house was pristine When we returned. We highly recommend him for all your pet needs!
When Colton first arrived at my house for a meet and greet my cats came out to meet him instead of hiding. My dog who barks at nearly everyone and is shy didn't bark and wanted to be around him. Colton is a gentle soul, very attentive and asks great questions. He took care of my three Maine Coons, my chickens and koi while I was gone a week. If he was unsure he didn't hesitate to contact me. He sent photo updates and checked in with me regularly. He followed my instructions perfectly. When I got home the house was clean and tidy. Colton is amazing. I'm so happy I found him.

Larkin was great at communicating and taking care of my kitten! She’s very friendly and took great care of our house as well. My kitten, who is often skittish around new people, was super comfortable with her and seemed content when I got home. So glad to have found such a responsible and kind person to hangout with my pet!

Sheri was an amazing dog sitter for us! She was extremely responsive, and kept us in the loop daily with what was going on. Sent pictures of the dogs every morning and let us know how they were doing. The dogs were happy and healthy when we got back! Would recommend Sheri every time.

Rose is tremendous. she is sweet and the dog and 3 cats love her. She is responsible and respectful of staying in someone else's home. I am an anxious pet mama and really didn't worry at all with her in charge. she sent tons of great pictures and updates. I have already reserved her for 2 more stays, so happy to have her on our team.

Regina did a fantastic job taking care of my babies. I received daily updates with pictures of the cats. She was on top of everthing that needed to be done. One of my cats need medication 3 times a day. Regina didn't miss a beat. She adminstered the pill with no problem. She did have a difficulty on one occasion. I told here if she misses one medication the world would not end. It meant a lot to me that she let me know. Overall Regina did an amazing job. I would absolutely provide a good review should someone show interest in having Regina pet sit.
