About: I've taken care of all types of animals since I was very young. Horses, dogs, cats, cows, pigs, you name it. I love all animals and prefer their company over humans! I work full time, and leave for work at around 6:15 a.m. Monday - Friday, and return home by 5 p.m. I can check in on your pet(s) in the morning before work, after work, and in the evening. I can go for walks in the mornings or evenings. I can give some petting and play time with your dog or cat when I check in on them and feed them. I will strive to keep their routine consistent.
“Monica was great. She sent daily pictures and kept me informed and answered any questions I had on how my cat was doing. I felt comfortable knowing my cat was being taken care of by her.”

“Lucy was awesome with Lola. It was very comforting to me to know that she was home being taken care of while I had to be away. I’ll never use a kennel again after our experience with Lucy! She’s a wonderful young lady, and will definitely contact her again in the future.”

“This is my second time asking Megan to watch my dogs when we work long hour shifts and when I get home they are exhausted! I can really tell they enjoy it a lot and I can actually tell they get a lot of exercise. I will continue to ask Megan to take care of my dogs because I feel like she is a person that I can really trust, especially since November has a lot of anxiety and over excitement all the time but she knows how to handle it and I’m thankful for that☺️”

“Tessa was wonderful coming to our home to check on our pets while my wife and I were out of town :) Reliable schedule and regular photo updates made our time away much more comfortable knowing our pets were in good hands.”

About: Hello! My name is Natalie and I’ve had dogs my whole life! Growing up I preferred watching pets over baby sitting, so that’s how I made my extra cash. I currently work as an actor in film & theatre, and use Rover to make a little more cash on the side, while having a great time with some furry friends! I’ll spend lots of personal time with your pup playing, running around the house/yard, and taking plenty of pictures to send you while you’re away! I have Border Collie named Digby and a Beagle-doodle named Goose. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! As I work as an actor, I block off the days that I am on set or in rehearsal, and all other times I’m available. I am in a house with a large backyard and several nearby parks. I have my own pups to keep yours company. Dogs are supervised 100% of the time! If I visit your house, I am exceptionally clean and only enter the parts of the home you have specified. I’m happy to follow any additional instructions you may have for you house!
“Alessia has been AMAZING with my puppy Oliver. She ensures plenty of potty breaks, play time and leaves my house as clean as I left it! She is so sweet and accommodating and I look forward to having her over again to watch Oliver in the future! Thank you Alessia!! 💜🐶”

“Christie took great care of our furbabies (one dog, one cat), and they loved seeing her when she came for her drop-in visits. She identified a problem with our garden irrigation and communicated well with us to mitigate the problem until we could return. She was responsive and flexible when our travel plans were disrupted by out-of-state weather. Thank you Christie!”

“Isabella was great with Maverick. Helped me out with a last minute add on booking as well, and gave me more updates than just the Rover card about how he was doing.”
“Brandy was great. She was able to come on short notice and even brought her kids to play with my 10-week-old puppy who was stuck in a crate all day. Really appreciate the effort. Will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. Since I was 12, it’s been my responsibility to take care of our English Setter. This began with me helping to train him. My role was to reinforce the lessons taught at the PetSmart classes. I’ve regularly walked, bathed, and taken to the vet our dog as well. I love animals of all kinds and care a lot about giving them the loving attention they deserve. I currently work part time 6 days a week, with Sundays off. I work from home, and regularly have mornings and early afternoons completely available. I have more than enough time for several appointments just about every day of the week. At the moment I do not own any pets, as my landlord does not allow it. I am unable to provide any services that would require my home. But I’ve lived with and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, with great regularly since I was 12. I know what I’m doing when it comes to our furry companions. I’d love to provide walks, visits, and any other services I can.
“Jocelynn is the sweetest and always provides the best care for our 9 year old 105 lb German Shepherd/Pit Bull rescue. She is reliable and consistent and follows care instructions perfectly. I highly recommend her!”

“Brian accepted a last minute booking to come check in on my cat while I was out of town for work. He was very diligent about refilling my cats food and water and cleaning up after him. Brian was patient while my shy, anxious cat warmed up to him. When I returned home, my cat seemed so much less stressed than when I’ve left him in the care of friends or family, so I can tell Brian took good care of him.”

About: I have had pets ever since I was 3 years old, I am now 20 and have lots of experience with taking care of them. I have also trained my dogs with the basics like, potty training, any tricks, simple house training etc. I am very experienced to take wonderful care of your fur babies and their needs. With my own pets I take care of them morning to night. I am home most of the time so I do spend time with them a lot but when I do leave my house I make sure they went outside before leaving and have plenty of water and food while I am gone. I always walk the dogs, follow any instructions that's given to me for the dogs care, eating habits, wash days, times to go out, and everyday I play with my own dogs keeping them active running around the yard and having plenty of toys. I also tidy up the house, sometimes with our fur babies the house can be a mess with toys all over and them shedding all the time so I can to provide that for you.
About: Having dogsat multiple times for friends and family, I have lots of experience caring for pets! With two (very different!) dogs of my own, I understand the nuances of different breeds and personalities (they are back home with my family!). My background includes caring for both puppies and older dogs, allowing me to tailor my approach to each pet's needs. I’m patient, attentive, and passionate about providing the best care, ensuring your furry friend feels safe and loved while you’re away. Im a student back home in Albuquerque for the summer. Willing to provide services around the ABQ and Rio Rancho area! Open availability for the summer While watching your dog I make sure to take the extra step to make sure you’re more comfortable! I’m very flexible so while dogsitting I try my best to keep normal routine for your pup! I’m a current student but can always check in on your dog every 2-4 hours.
“Satara did an awesome job watching my cats. She kept me informed of when she’d be over to take care of them. One of the cats threw up in the kitchen and she kindly cleaned it up. I greatly appreciate Satara’s service and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“wonderful job once again. Second time I’ve used Alyssa and my cat Max has already started accepting her. He is normallyquite picky and usually afraid of everyone.”

I'm grateful I was able to book with Fiery on short notice. As always, my girls were given lots of belly rubs and loves, they told me so. 😁 Seriously, I know my fur babies are well cared for by Fiery and this fact frees me of worry when I have to be away from them.

Ceara unfortunately stepped into a lousy situation when she agreed to sit for our 3 cats. We had just had one die from illness and another was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. While the cat had antibiotics on board, she was still not urinating like a healthy cat. The cat is also afraid and anxious, so it was difficult to find her for a picture. We were worried sick, so Ceara asked if she should go back until she found the cat. It was late, so we told her to go next day. She did track down the cat who was obviously alive and scared, but we could at least relax for the duration of our stay away.
