This is the second time I’ve booked with Maellen, she is my go-to when I need to board my dog. My dog is a very shy dog but has really come to trust Maellen and her husband. She loves their yard and all the walks! I look forward to booking Maellen in the future! She is amazing!

William and The Zoo were perfect for our dog: attentive and engaging. It was so nice to know he had company and plenty of playtime. William was friendly, flexible, and highly responsive!

Rebecca was fantastic, Our dog really bonded with her little girl. Rebecca sent constant updates and photos. We could tell that Cherry (our dog ) was happy and comfortable. I would not hesitate booking with Rebecca, she is a 5 star boarder. If we make another trip we will book with her for sure. Look no further, Rebecca is great.

Savannah did an amazing job with Millie! Millie’s a bit shy and Savannah made her feel welcome and Millie definitely enjoyed her stay with her! Savannah would respond quickly and provide cute update pictures throughout the trip. Would definitely be booking with her again and recommend her to everyone!

Holly and Robert watched my dog Hazel for a few days while I was out of town. She got along great with the other dogs in the house, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in great hands during her stay! The hosts regularly communicated with me and provided pictures, as well. I highly recommend Holly and Robert for your boarding or overnight needs in the Albuquerque area 🐶 🐾

Onrae was amazing! He met with us two consecutive days prior to the stay for a meet and greet to calm our fears of a first stay but a long stay for our sweet boy. He responded during the long stay with pictures and videos to let us know how our dog was doing. He was timely and very responsive and accommodating. Will certainly use him again!

My pup had a great time with Josie, her husband and especially their dog Paco. I got daily pictures and updates so that I never had to worry 🥰 Our dog needs daily medicine and they had no problem making sure she got it, they were even able to get around her pill defenses by putting it in cream cheese (a new trick I'm definitely adopting)! I was especially happy to hear how well our dogs got along and that lots of play and tug of war sessions were had 😄 Pepper was treated like family and we'll absolutely rebook next time we have to go away.

Joshua is great. He's a natural with dogs, and it's obvious he loves them! I HIGHLY recommend Joshua and his home for extended boarding. He has a very large yard for play, and the dogs love it! I travel a lot, and I will be using Joshua every time. My puppy, Mocha, made a new friend with Joshua's dog, Blitzen. Immediately, they became friends and were inseparable for seven days. Thank you, Joshua!!! My wife and I are very grateful for the care you gave Mocha!!!

We just moved to the area, and needed a new rover sitter for a couple day trip. We made a couple changes to the itinerary as we went, and Esperita was incredibly accommodating. It is overwhelmingly apparent to us that Espirta cares for the animals we trust her with immensely, and we would not hesitate to use her again.

Elaine is the best! She took great care of our diabetic dog while we were visiting friends out of state, and was adept at giving Zoe her two shots of insulin every day. She kept in touch with emails and photos every day which we greatly appreciated. We highly recommend her whether your pet is special needs or not! We are very happy to have found her on rover.com!

Chad is an easy-going guy who was very accommodating. Everything was packed up ready to go for pick up. He responds quickly in communications and enjoys having the animals around. He works from home so is available for those he’s caring for. Being left somewhere unknown was a new experience for my dog and she made known her displeasure with his dog on drop off. Chad took it in stride and, when her stay was over, he told me she had been a sweetheart to have in his home. So I know she received good care.

My anxious Great Dane did really well in her care. I felt completely comfortable with her watching him just from the meet and greet! She wasn't afraid to gets hands on with redirecting him during moments of reactivity at the park, so I knew she was going to be a great fit for my dog. She followed our "rules" for him and updated us when needed. We will use her again!

Rita is absolutely the best dog sitter around town. She sends morning and evening updates with pictures, and it's my favorite thing to see my babies having a great time while I'm on vacation. I cannot express how much we appreciate Rita, and knowing our girls are being taken care of so well is a great feeling. I definitely recommend her to watch your furry babies, too.
