House Sitting Sandia Park

“This was the first time we have used Rover, and our selected dog-sitter was wonderful with our one year old border collie mix rescue—Boots. She came over for a meet and greet, kept Boots happy with walks, fetch games and companionship, and kept the house neat. We would happily engage her again and highly recommend her to others.”

“Marty was super communicative with lots of photos and updates of my dude, which is so important to anxious dog parents! He is super positive and accommodating - he even shoveled my sidewalk after a snowfall! And he was flexible when I had unexpected travel delays to make sure my dog wasn’t left alone! Really happy to have found Marty!”

“August was awesome with my pup! Lots of updates and clear communication! My dog is a nervous fella and August was great about letting him warm up before giving out pets 😊”

“Autumn took good care of our little dog, Marvin, while we were out of town. Marvin is shy but warmed up to Autumn. Autumn kept us informed by sending us daily updates and photos of Marvin. We are extremely pleased with the service Autumn provided.”

“Cody kept Dog & Bob from missing us, too much, while we were gone. Doggies were happy and well contented when we got home to them. For two larger and excitable dogs it is much appreciated.”

“We will definitely be hoping that Ryan is available the next time we need someone to stay! Everything went great. Animals loved him, great communication. Could not have gone better. Thank you so much Ryan!”

“Stephanie is AMAZING! By far the best sitter we have found through Rover ?? Stephanie is super attentive to your dogs, sends tons of photos and updates, and checks in each time she pops over which helps put me at ease when leaving our dogs at home. She was super excited to hang and play fetch with our four babies and we couldn't be happier and we are sure the dogs loved it too ? We look forward to having Stephanie watch our babies again, thank you!!”

“Our dog was very happy with Amber. Will definitely hire her again.”

“Laurie is amazing! She is such a great communicator and made the whole process super stress-free. Ellie really loved her too and seemed almost sad it was me walking thru the door and not Laurie!”

Liz L.

“Sierra stayed at our house to watch our dog. She took great care of him while we were away. Our home was just as we left it and our dog was fed and happy when we returned. Thank you!”

“I was very pleased with how Hannah took care of my puppy and my home. Puppy kept thriving and she kept up with his daily training. It was a lot to ask for a long period of time.”

About: Hi, I’m Taylor! I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages for family and friends over the years. I currently have a six year old cat that requires special care and attention, and I regularly take care of her senior cousin who requires daily shots. I am currently working on going back to school, so my schedule is pretty open right now to provide care for your little one. :) In my client’s home, I connect with the client to learn their routine. I take notes and ask questions to ensure I provide the care the client and pet is expecting from me. If the client desires, I’m happy to send pictures and updates during my stay!

“Arman was absolutely wonderful. He provided great care for our large Akita. Arman walked our dog Max regularly. He fed Max and gave him his medication on schedule and Arman provided us with regular updates and photos. I highly recommend Arman F. !”

About: A little about me: I’ve had a dog by my side every day since I was six years old — dogs are an integral part of my life, not just something I do on the side. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of every size, age, and temperament, from tiny lap dogs to a 90-pound Labrador, and from bouncy puppies to dogs in their older years. Experience: My deepest experience is with senior and special-needs dogs. My Labrador had a series of health challenges, including three separate leg surgeries. I nursed him through every recovery, which meant walking him with a support sling until he was back on his feet. When he was later diagnosed with cancer, I cared for him through hospice at home — giving his daily medications and keeping him comfortable and loved right to the end. So if your older dog needs medication, a little mobility help, or just extra patience and gentleness, that’s something I genuinely know how to do. I’m just as comfortable with high-energy dogs. That same Labrador was a handful in his younger years, so I know what it takes to keep a strong, active dog happy and well-exercised. I also love puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need. I’m happy to walk more than one dog at a time, and I have experience with leash-reactive dogs — I know how to keep walks calm, controlled, and low-stress for a dog who needs a little extra management. Right now I share my home with two girls — a 15-year-old Chihuahua mix and a 2-year-old Cairn Terrier — so both ends of the age spectrum are part of my daily routine. Before them I’ve cared for several terriers and a Border Collie mix, among others. I walk my own dogs every single day and I’ll keep yours on a good routine too. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends who were thrilled with the care I provided — beyond looking after their dogs, I kept their homes tidy, watered plants, and brought in mail, treating each home with the same respect I’d give my own. Services: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting: • Dog walking — I keep dogs safely leashed and give them a proper outing with a good sniff, steady exercise, and a potty break, adjusting the length and pace sensibly for the weather. • Drop-in visits — I come to your home to feed, refresh water, handle potty breaks, play, and give plenty of affection, plus tidy up any little messes before I head out. • House sitting — I stay overnight in your home and keep your dog’s whole world running on schedule (feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and steady company) while also looking after your place by keeping it tidy, bringing in the mail, and watering plants. Availability: I work from home and set my own hours, so I’m around for your dog far more than the average sitter — and I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Pet care is the center of my day, not an afterthought, which means real time and attention whether it’s a midday walk, an unhurried drop-in, or being present in your home throughout the day on an overnight stay. The only exception is the occasional family commitment, which I always know about well in advance, so I can be upfront about my availability every single time. Peace of mind: Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’m always happy to send photo and video updates so you can see your pup having a good time, and I’ll check in as often as you’d like while you’re away. And should anything ever go wrong, I’m able to drive your dog to the vet in an emergency — so you can travel with real peace of mind. Pet care is the center of my daily routine. I work from home, my schedule is very open and flexible, so I can build my day around your dog's needs rather than squeezing them in. The only exception is the occasional family commitment I schedule around, and because those are always planned well in advance, I'll always know my availability far ahead of time and can be upfront with you about it. To give you a sense of how I run a day: my own dogs eat at 8am and 6pm, get a 20–40 minute walk in the evening, and I stay attentive throughout the day to when they need to go out. My younger dog gets dedicated playtime with her toys, and my senior girl gets her medication right on schedule every other day. I keep that same consistency and attention for any dog in my care — sticking to your dog's normal feeding, walking, medication, and potty routine so their world stays steady while you're away. When I care for your dog in your home, safety comes first. I keep all doors and gates closed and latched, and I'm constantly aware of where your dog is — especially any time I'm heading in or out, so there's no chance of an escape. I follow whatever house rules and routines you set. I also treat your home with the same respect I give my own. When I dog-sat for family and friends, I kept their house tidy, watered their plants, and brought in mail while they were away. I will leave your home just as you left it, keep you updated with photos while you're gone, and communicate quickly about anything that comes up. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a house in good order.
