About: I’ve spent the past 5 years rescued animals, volunteer at shelters, and caring for pets of all kinds.I currently have a 10month old German Shepherd mix who loves playing with all kinds of dogs, kids, and people. Right now, I’m available for full-time pet care on weekends. I work a full-time job during the week but I’ll be fully available for pet care throughout the entire month of July. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and take my dog to the dog park every day. We also go hiking often! I’ll treat your beloved pet like family in your home or mine!☺️ I’m also very flexible with schedule changes or anything!

About: Hi, I'm Eva! I’ve had dogs and been surrounded by pets my whole life. I currently have a 3 year old Portuguese Water Dog, Claude. He craves social time with other dogs (big and small) and demands at least two trips a day to the grassy park down the street. He is very active and loves to hike or run after work when it's cool out. He loves learning new tricks and recently passed his Canine Good Citizen test. I work from home Monday - Friday and have a fenced in yard in the back if the dogs are desperate to get some energy out sooner rather than later! I work Monday - Friday on East Coast hours so am usually done by 3/3:30 to get the dogs out and enjoying the sunshine. I am able to take breaks throughout the day for walks to the park and around the neighborhood. We love to go for a run or hike after work when it is cool out! I am available all day, able to provide excellent communication and attention for your dog. I have a fully fenced in backyard that the dogs can play in anytime they wish.

“Joy took great care of our sweet baby! You can tell she loves dogs. She provided a few updates and was really nice. Would definitely use her services again!”


“Melinda has a very calm demeanor and was very good with my little puppy. It was his first time in doggy daycare. I certainly recommend her for all services.”


“Stevvi was great with our paraplegic dog! When we picked him up he seems very comfortable and happy and when we did shoot a message during the day to check on our pup she got back to us within minutes. We absolutely will book with Stevvi again.”


About: I've been taking care of pets ever since I was a child. Ive grown up near live stock and many types of animals and helped take care of them for my entire life. I have had 2 dogs and 3 cats, my oldest dog recently died of old age. I am very responsible and I care about animals. I will take care of your pets like they are my own. I love any type of animal big or small. My family and I have had many chihuauas in my lifetime. I love each of them very much. Any animal I care for will be well fed and watered and will get plenty of play time. All of the animals I currently have are super friendly. I live on a one acre fenced property. I currently am a full time college student, so I have alot of free time in which I usually always hang out with my animals. I have a fenced yard, and a puppy to keep your pet company. I also have a kennel so if needed they can go in there.

“Melissa was great! She promptly replied to my day care request. I picked up a happy, tired out pup… just what we needed as we continued on our road trip!”


“My boys were instantly comfortable with Cressandra. It was remarkable. They are shy dogs, but day 1 of doggy daycare they already did zoomies, made themselves at home on the couch, and ate their full meal.”


About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home dad living in Santa Fe with my wife, our two young kids, and our friendly yellow Lab. I offer overnight boarding, doggy daycare, and drop-in visits for dogs who enjoy a calm, caring home environment. I grew up with a mix of great mutts—shepherds, labs, chows, cattle dogs—and I’ve always loved learning how to help dogs feel at ease and be their best selves. Our Lab is a big, gentle goof who gets along well with other dogs, and I’m home most of the day to give your pup plenty of attention, outside time, and companionship. We’re a laid-back, dog-loving household with a fenced yard, kid energy, and lots of love to share. If your dog enjoys a family vibe and a steady routine, we’d be happy to welcome them for the day or an overnight stay. My partner and I live together with her yellow Lab. He’s a big sweet goof and loves other dogs and people. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I love high energy and high focus dogs. I understand their desire to “work” and I enjoy giving them a challenge. My favorite exercise is always outdoors with dogs; running, biking, backcountry snowboarding, etc. i have a lot of energy and so I enjoy dogs that want to run around with me. I work from home full-time, so I’m able to give dogs a lot of attention throughout the day. Most of my work is computer-based, which gives me the flexibility to take breaks for walks, playtime, or just hanging out in the yard. Our daily routine is steady and family-oriented, with plenty of outside time when the weather’s nice. Dog sitting fits in naturally with our lifestyle—our own dog loves the company, and we enjoy the extra canine energy in the house. Pets in our care are treated like part of the family. At our home, dogs are supervised, given plenty of attention, and kept in a safe, comfortable environment. We have a securely fenced yard for outdoor time, and inside, dogs are free to relax in shared spaces or have a quiet spot to themselves if needed. I keep a consistent routine, make sure water is always fresh, and follow any feeding or medication instructions closely. When doing drop-ins, I always treat the home with respect and focus on making the dog feel safe and cared for in their own space. I check in with photos or updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old. I have a 3 year-old Portuguese Water Dog who loves to have friends stay over. He’s incredibly friendly and welcoming to dogs staying over. I have a fenced yard (with GRASS!). I work from home so your dog will be given constant love and attention. Long walks are a must—especially to the two parks that are 5 minutes away. I work from home full time and have plenty of time throughout the day for walks. I am happy to pick up your dog from your home and bring them to ours! Claude, my 3-year-old Portuguese Water Dog, has had plenty of sleepovers lately and loves having a friend to hang out with at home. He’ll show your dog our fenced-in grassy yard, will gladly share his spot on the couch, and will advocate for your dog to get treats all day!

About: With plenty of experience on Rover and a thorough background check (badge visible on my profile), you can rest easy knowing your pets are in good hands.

I'd modification the schedules around to fit what you and your pets want/needs! Your pets and the safety will always be my priority! I prioritize providing the peace of mind needed for you to enjoy your time away while your pets are in my care. They are free to play, nap and lounge around while enjoying countless belly rubs:) I believe that the pets should be in their comfortable zone when they get to meet someone new so I strongly encourage meet and greet or instruction to introduce to them would be great!

About: I have owned dogs my whole life. I am a therapist and have a 2 year old mini goldendoodle I am training as a therapy dog. I work part time from home and am able to be with the dogs the whole day. I have taken some time away from dog sitting to travel and I am eager to be with the pups again! Your dogs will be spoiled as my own is. We take morning and evening walks daily. Allow for plenty of play time and lots of love and attention. I only board up to 2 dogs at any given time to ensure the dogs get plenty of individualized attention and do not experience stress. References available upon request I am a therapist working part time from home. My goldendoodle and I have a lot of play time together! We have a beautiful area on the property to hike.

About: Hello I'm Madeline, and I'm here to care for your pet just as I do for my own! I love cats and dogs alike, and have taken care of many different breeds and personality types over the years. I've yet to find any pet that I can't handle! Your pets will be loved and cared for so you don't have to worry while you are away :) For Boarding: I live on 5 acres of a wonderful pinon paradise, where your dog(s) can play and hike to their heart's content! I take my own pup for 3 walks a day, so yours will get plenty of exercise. And if they don't mind the car, I'm happy to take them to parks and longer hikes if you like! They can sleep in their own bedroom or in a fully furnished cosy workshop if they prefer. I work from home so will give them my full attention 24/7. I pay very close attention to any specific needs for diet, behavior, or whatever special instructions you give. I love to send photos and updates as often as you like, so you can see they are happy and healthy! If it's drop-in visits only, I give my full attention to playing, hugging, entertaining your pets the entire time I'm there. I hate leaving my pets behind while I travel, so I know how to ensure other owners that their pets are cared for as if they were my own :) I currently work my own schedule so can be flexible with whatever your pets needs may be. If they are boarding in my home, they will have 24/7 attention. I own 5 acres with a good portion fenced in if staying at my home. I love energetic hikes and walks and will cater to your dog's fitness level. I take my own cat outdoors on a harness and would be happy to train yours too! Whatever level of care your pet is accustomed to, I will deliver the same while they are in my care.

About: Dog owners would love my service because I am very passionate about caring for dogs. Dogs would love my service because I give treats, unconditional love, and lots of hugs and petting. I have 3 dogs of my own and they get bathed, spoiled, treats, sleep with me and care when they are sick. In summer they get air conditioned and in winter they get by the heater. I am available anytime day or night. I will treat your dogs with the upmost respect and as if they were mine and you will be satisfied with my service and will want to bring them back. I can brush thier hair, bathe, love, and pet them. I will be honored and trusted to watch your dogs.
