“Thank you so much, Boo had a lovely time she wasn’t stressed at all when we picked her up . I loved all the update pictures. Really put my mind at ease.”
“Debbie was amazing with our Rocky. Rocky is a baby “bear”, he is big and clumsy! But Debbie provided plenty of love, attention and patience. I really appreciated it. It gave me peace of mind. When I pick up Rocky, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!"”
“Mark was wonderful! He was sweet and patient with Rio. He was very communicative, sending us multiple updates each day, including pictures. We will definitely be using him again!”
“Michael watched our fur baby for 13 days. She is approx. 14 yrs old, and we were worried about leaving her for such a long period of time. Michael's calm and easy demeanor was reassurance that she would be fine. She does not get along with other animals and as the only pet Michael watched he was able to provide her with individual attention. He sent photos daily, which we greatly appreciated. We will definitely use his services again. Michael, thank you for taking such good care of our family member!”
“Holly and Robert are incredible dog sitters! Their picture and comments showed me how much fun my dog had. I was a little worried that jerome would refuse to come home with us.”
“This was my first time leaving my two dogs overnight at a strangers house and I'm so glad it was with Marissa!! She both reassured the dogs, AND she also was reassuring to me - and that helped a lot. She sent me updates and photos and took really good care of my two dogs that were not at all used to staying somewhere other than my house. It felt to me like she got to know each dog personally, not just give them food and shelter for the night... I would certainly book with her again when the need arises!!”
“Joshua's in-home sitting for our two dogs was great! He has an obvious talent for working with and training dogs, even stubborn ones. Our dogs were well-kept, and enjoyed playing with his German Shepherd in his large backyard. All went well and our dogs are better behaved for their 5 days with Joshua. We highly recommend him!”
“Brandi was wonderful with our pup. Extremely responsive, provided updates, helped work on his high high energy, and conscientious. Will definitely continue to book with her!”
“Patricia is lovely. My dogs were well taken care of, and enjoyed being able to play with Patricia's little dog, Sophie, and another (small dog) client of Patricia's. I received pictures each morning of my travels, and Patricia communicated with me. Her home and yard are well kept, and provide a comfortable and safe environment for the pets. Having Patricia as my dogs' sitter took so much stress and anxiety of my shoulders while traveling. I definitely plan to use Patricia's sitter services when i travel in the future!”
“Doug is great! All 3 of my dogs have some type of health issue that requires daily medication, they’re on an annoyingly specific diet because my geriatric dog needs the extra inventive to eat regularly, and although they’re sweet they’re a bit wild. They love him and are always happily tired when it’s time to go home. He also always has their supplies packed and ready for me when I get back to pick them up. 10/10!”
“Brian has a good system and is quite knowledgeable about dog behaviors which helps with intros with the dogs and when they come in pairs. Asks good questions to get to know them and help make them comfortable. I like the fact that my dogs could be right with Brian if they wanted. Flexible setup and accomodating”
“Jamie & Patrick were phenomenal! They were incredibly accommodating to my schedule—even with a slight change. If you’re in the ABQ area, I highly recommend them for your fur babies. I know that if I’m ever back and need pet sitting again, I will absolutely use their services. 🐾”
“Wendy was great. She sent me pics of him, gave me updates of the situation, and asked if there was anything else she could do to keep Almond comfortable. Wendy let me know immediately that Almond started howling in the middle of the night. I wasn't sure what was going on since he never did that at home. My initial thought was he was missing me and home. And because of his age, I believe he got disoriented and lost and couldn't identify where he was at. Wendy did follow the instructions I left and asked if there was anything more she could do. I appreciate Wendy giving Almond the extra care he needed. Thanks again..”
“Becky took such great care of our pups. They really enjoyed their time and we had the peace of mind that they were well cared for during our time away. Becky even gave our pups a thank you gift that they are obsessed with 😊 thank you Becky and we cant wait till their next stay with you!”
“Sabrina was amazing!! My dog absolutely loved her and staying at her home. Sabrina provided a lot of pictures and videos and did a great job with administering my dog’s daily medication! I definitely recommend Sabrina if you are looking for a sitter!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, I’ve watched big dogs like pit bulls to tiny little shi tzu’s. While I don’t have professional experience, I know a lot about dogs and I’m very gentle and tending to an owners needs. I’ve been trusted by many family members to watch and walk their dogs and have received nothing but positive feedback. I truly have a heart for dogs and am motivated to make them happy. I’m working part time due to my full time college schedule, so I have a lot of time to walk dogs or pet sit them while you are away at work! I’m looking to make some extra money to afford studying dental hygiene at UNM. I get out of class at about 2:30pm every weekday, and after that I’m free. I live in an apartment with many huge grass patches for dogs to run around, along with a dog park on the property. I also have a patio for them to play, and a huge crate for my own dog which any dog could use if needed. I’m very good with instructions, because I’m picky myself when finding a dog sitter.
“Ben is great. He responds quickly to communication. This is our first time using Rover and this experience was very positive for us. We have a big dog and Ben was a good fit for her and he sent us lots if photos and she looked happy in the pictures. We would definitely book with Ben again.”
“What can I say Kevin was awesome. Our pup Mowgli enjoyed he stay with Kevin and was sad when he had to come back home. Kevin took great care of our pup and sent us regular updates with picture which easier my wife and my mind while we were away on vacation knowing that he was in great hands. I would recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a pet sitter he is hands down a great person and very professional, we will use him for our future pet sitting needs. Thank you Kevin for taking such good care of our boy.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Mary and her wonderful family. From the moment I met them, I knew Tula was in kind, capable hands. Mary has a loving home filled with children, cats, and dogs, and Tula settled in as if she had always belonged there. It was clear she was treated as part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and excellent care. Knowing Tula was happy, safe, and well-loved gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We are so grateful to Mary and her family for welcoming her into their home, and we would not hesitate to trust them with Tula again. We highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for exceptional, loving care for their pet.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Tijeras is $30 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $47 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 326 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tijeras. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Tijeras can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tijeras home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Tijeras.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Tijeras sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NM ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
