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: I have been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and enjoy their company. I had two Labradors and four cats sharing my home, who have since gone over the Rainbow Bridge. My sister has a middle-aged rescue brindle, a two-year-old calico cat, and a Retriever puppy that I assist caring for which fills that furry gap. My diversity in caring for old and young dogs is extensive along with varieties of dogs from Labradors to Pittbull-mixes to Bassett Hounds. I love how pets fill our hearts with love and affection and I enjoy being with them, caring and playing with them. Being retired I can spend as much time as needed to care for your fur babies. My versatile schedule allows me availability to be with them whenever needed to let them out, play, feed and check on them. I look forward to meeting them, and you. I have done house and pet sitting for many years bringing experience and attention to every home and pet I meet. One of my goals is to bring comfort when you are away knowing your home and pets are well cared for. My first priority is to be mindful of the location of each dog and cat while there. Safety is most important, being aware of closed doors and gates to avoid any mishaps and alert to anything on the floor or within reach that could be ingested. Every pet has their unique habits and I am careful to learn those from you and them and focus on their needs. I enjoy giving people that comfort knowing their fur babies and their home are in good hands.
“Autumn has watched my dog and cat several times, and takes such good care of them. I know that my furry kids are in great hands with her. My dog Evan has severe separation anxiety, but Autumn gives him so much love that he is able to work through it. For this past booking, I had some scheduling changes and asked Autumn at the last minute if she could stay three additional nights. She immediately accepted, giving me such peace of mind. She sends tons of amazing pictures and updates. We are so grateful to have found her!”

“Jessie took great care of our kitty and the house. She's super communicative and responsive. Our cat was one happy camper. I highly recommend Jessie, and I'm sure we'll be repeat customers.”
“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.”

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.
“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!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner all my life, not only have I cared/owned dogs, but cats and reptiles too! I love all animals and have cared for special needs and elderly dogs. I am currently working part time in the Army and I’m a full time college student. The flexibility with my schedule leaves me with a lot of availability for your fur babies! I specialize in house sittings so that your pup is still comfortable and in a familiar environment. I have no problem tending to your pups day to day schedule and needs. This of course includes, walks, specific dinner times, and whatever other needs your dog may have. I only take one sitting at a time to ensure your pups receive my undivided attention and pristine service!
“It was a total joy having Kaitlyn watch my 2 dogs (1 small, 1 large) and home while away. The dogs were well cared for & happy, and the home clean & well kept. What more could I ask for?”

“Blaise was able to care for our Aussie on late notice, which was much appreciated! Blaise stayed in our house and took great care of the dog and our place. I would hire her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Avery (Julie)! At the moment I do not have any pets of my own…yet keep dog treats in my mailbox for passers by. I have had dogs and cats in my life since I can remember. I have had 5 dogs at a time, and know how to lead, and listen. Highly intuitive and super happy person who genuinely cares about connection with animals. I am a communicative person and can definitely assist in helping with your pets - keeping you informed of their well being. Currently I am available on week nights after 4pm, and weekends, yet I retire very soon so will have time to attend during the week days. My home is very comfortable and there is enough space for pets to have room to explore. I have a fenced front and back yard. I also have a cooled sunroom that will also be available for summer or windy days.

“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 !”

South San Pedro pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alexus was amazing!! She took notes during the meet and greet and was so sweet to my energetic bully and kitties. During my trip she made sure to update me everyday (including pictures) and was prompt in responding back if I ever messaged her with any questions. I came home to happy and loved fur babies. I've already booked her again!

Melissa went above & beyond with my Rori! She is so caring, loving, understanding, & flexible with scheduling.. and was so accommodating to my crazy schedule. Her communication is incredible & she kept me well informed of how Rori was doing. She even got my pup to play & I love it when she plays - I know she was happy & very comfortable with her. They went on lots of walks & she was very attentive to Rori's wants & needs. Thank you so much Melissa! We can't wait to book with her again!

We had a very positive experience overall and would absolutely hire Ava again. Once the pet-sitting began, she was dependable and consistent, took initiative without needing much hand-holding, and kept us updated throughout. We especially appreciated that she let us know when supplies were running low and that she cleaned up after herself - those thoughtful details made a big difference and gave us peace of mind. She clearly cared for our pets and our home, and we felt they were in good hands. The one piece of constructive feedback would be around communication before the job started. We had some difficulty reaching her in the days leading up to the visit and again the morning of, which created a little stress on our end. That said, once everything was underway, communication improved significantly, and Ava was reliable and proactive throughout. Overall, she did a very good job, and we’d feel comfortable recommending her to others looking for a caring and capable pet sitter.

Paloma went out of her way to care for our three adult/senior dogs and 15-week-old rescue puppy on relatively short notice, allowing us to spend much-needed quality time with family out of state. We had peace of mind the entire week we were away and returned to happy pets!

Riley was great - she is communicative, sweet, and took good care of my pup and house! My dog was on a couple of meds so was feeling off during her stay and she made sure to give him his meds and was understanding of his weird little behaviors. I had total peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we were gone. Thanks you!! 😊

Josephine took amazing care of my 13 year old shih-tzu Chloe, and was extremely attentive to all of her needs. Chloe has separation anxiety, so I was worried to travel but Josephine was reliable, communicative and made me feel so much more comfortable being away from my pup! Chloe was clearly so well taken care of & loved for 😊

Corinne was great - our dogs are very suspicious to everyone they meet, but Corinne made friends with them very fast. She send us daily updates and pictures and we felt that they are in good hands. I would not hesitate to book Corinne again - and I hope she will be available than as well.
