“Maellen was amazing with my dog Luna. Luna is very afraid of new people but warmed up to Maellen very quickly. She loved all the walks and love Maellen gave her! I will definitely book her for any and all future trips. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Rebecca was fantastic, Our dog really bonded with her little girl. Rebecca sent constant updates and photos. We could tell that Cherry (our dog ) was happy and comfortable. I would not hesitate booking with Rebecca, she is a 5 star boarder. If we make another trip we will book with her for sure. Look no further, Rebecca is great.”

“Hossanna was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Azula. From the start, she was so accommodating and kind, and she even met with us for two walks before Azula’s stay, which made a huge difference in helping us feel comfortable. I have very detailed (and sometimes neurotic) instructions when it comes to my dog, and Hossanna never once made me feel bad about that. She was patient, understanding, and clearly cared about doing things right for Azula. She sent us many thoughtful photos throughout the stay, and it was obvious Azula was comfortable, happy, and safe in her care. If she would have us again, I would absolutely book with her, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust.”

“I’m so glad I found Courtnay! I’m new to ABQ and was worried about leaving my anxious pup behind, but Courtnay immediately made me feel like my girl was in fantastic hands. She sent tons of pictures and videos, was very communicative, flexible, and gracious. I’m so grateful and will definitely be booking again.”


“Pat is a dream come true! She is constantly sending me updates on and photos of my dog, Marley, and I can tell that he loves her company. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and really takes the time to understand him. All of her dogs are really sweet and loving. Now I feel like when I go on vacation, my dog is also on vacation at Pat's house! Thank you so much, Pat!”

“Bonni took great care of my 15-pound dog and she sent me several cute pictures. Bonni also graciously refunded a portion of my booking fee when I decided, with short notice, to bring my dog a day later than I originally planned. Overall, great experience and I knew my dog was in good hands so I didn't have to worry during my trip. Bonni also did a meet-and-greet before the stay so that my dog would be familiar with her home.”

“Jessie took absolutely amazing care of my dog Finn. She was kind, patient, and attentive throughout his long stay in her home. Finn was very relaxed and comfortable in all the pictures she sent! I highly recommend Jessie to everyone looking for great care for their pets.”


“Tracy and her family were AMAZING with our dog Chip. He is a recent rescue with anxiety so when looking for a sitter, I wanted a family that he could integrate with. At Tracy's, he felt right at home and immediately bonded with their daughter. When I picked Chip up after a very long stay, he was happy and healthy. Tracy provided regular photos/updates and answered any questions that I had. I would absolutely book with Tracy and her family again. Thank you!!”

“Josie and her husband made our little man Yoshi feel like family. She offeted great communication and checked in with daily updates. He ate well, got daily walks, and tons of playtime and cuddles. Very dog friendly home with toys and beds galore and a large backyard to play in. Paco the resident dog is friendly and playful. I recommend Josie 100%.”

“A great sitter for our pup! She boarded with Onrae for 8 nights and was well cared for during her stay! We received pix and videos often while we were gone, which was reassuring for us as we had not left her before. Cali says, "Thanks, Onrae, for the great care!!"”

“DEVONA.IS.THE.BEST! My trip was stress free as I knew Dixie was in the best hands. The photos & videos Devona sent, assured me that Dixie was having a vacation as well. Devona was very flexible in drop off and pick up times & I even got a cleaner and nicer smelling dog back, then the one I dropped off. Thank you so much Devona for taking such loving care of Dixie.”

About: I've been caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and Macaws. I've also volunteered at bird reacues and animal shelters in both New Mexico and Iowa. I have experience in animal training and Im currently an at home student at CNM so I have plenty of time to entertain and care for your pet. I enjoy making pet care a full time part of my life. I have a large fenced in back yard perfect for safe running and playing. It's got a nice spacious grass lawn with pet safe plants. The inside is pet safe and proof for your animals safety.
“Cecilia is a wonderful caretaker for my dog Baldr, I have left him with her twice. She is very communicative and kind and I feel comfortable leaving my beloved older dog with her.”

“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!”

“Max always gets so excited to go to Chad‘s house. It’s like we’re going to visit his doggy family. Chad is very careful in picking the other dogs that he watches so Max has always had a good experience if another dog is there”

“The pups LOVED Anne and can hardly wait to go back! You can tell she loves dogs. We were in ABQ for the Balloon Fiesta and realized that I had left the dog's bag with their food and food bowls in it at home when I went to drop off the pups. She had spare food for them to eat and even a spare leash to take Penny and Baxter for a walk, because I forgot that, too! First time ever I have done that, but Anne is prepared for every catastrophe a pet owner could have, with multiple leashes, bowls, and yes, even food available for pets. He house is like a luxury pet resort. Makes me wish I was a dog so I could have stayed with her!”

“Thomas, Matthew and George cordially welcomed my fur baby into their home. I was provided with updates and photos during my pups stay. I will definitely book another stay in the near future.”

“Super awesome with my pup -received tons of updates! My flight got delayed and Cindy was super flexible in letting him stay an extra night. Would definitely book again!”

University Hts dog parents share their Rover experiences
This is my 1st time using Rover and have never left my fur baby with anyone except family and close friends, but Courtnay is awesome! She really was great with my Bella, I received updates throughout the day of her with pics and video of her mingling with 2 other pups, and she was so pleasant- helping me care for her last minute, I'll definitely be calling her again. A++++.

Aijah is such an amazing pet sitter! I took an international trip for the first time since I got my dog and I ended up stuck a day longer than I was planning. She sent me pictures and was really flexible about pickup. When I picked my puppy up I could tell she had an amazing time and after such a chaotic trip, it was so nice to know that she was taken care of

Melinda is wonderful! She has a wealth of knowledge and experience about dog needs and behaviors and it shows in the loving care she gave Andie. We felt very comfortable that she was being well looked after and picked up a happy and healthy pup. We’ll definitely use Melinda's services again!

Patrice was great with our baby. This was only our 2nd time leaving our pup and so we were still a little nervous, but Patrice handled everything so well. Our dog has some specific needs and requirements that can make watching her tricky, but Patrice did what she needed to! She sent many pictures and communicated with us throughout the day and responded right away to our many (probably overboard) of messages 😅. Thank you, Patrice! Will definitely be booking with her again.

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.

My pup had a great time with Josie, her husband and especially their dog Paco. I got daily pictures and updates so that I never had to worry 🥰 Our dog needs daily medicine and they had no problem making sure she got it, they were even able to get around her pill defenses by putting it in cream cheese (a new trick I'm definitely adopting)! I was especially happy to hear how well our dogs got along and that lots of play and tug of war sessions were had 😄 Pepper was treated like family and we'll absolutely rebook next time we have to go away.

Geneva always takes amazing care of my dog, Zelee. Geneva is always attentive to her needs and sends me lots of photos, videos and updates while I’m away, which makes me feel so comfortable and at ease when I leave Zelee. Geneva does a great job managing Zelee and also balancing taking care of multiple dogs at the same time.

Hossanna was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Azula. From the start, she was so accommodating and kind, and she even met with us for two walks before Azula’s stay, which made a huge difference in helping us feel comfortable. I have very detailed (and sometimes neurotic) instructions when it comes to my dog, and Hossanna never once made me feel bad about that. She was patient, understanding, and clearly cared about doing things right for Azula. She sent us many thoughtful photos throughout the stay, and it was obvious Azula was comfortable, happy, and safe in her care. If she would have us again, I would absolutely book with her, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust.

Katie & Pisces were very communicative throughout my dog’s whole stay. He usually has anxiety in new situations and they settled him in so nicely and by the time I picked him back up he didn’t want to leave. I can tell by how exhausted he was when we got home that he had a good time! I even added an extra day last minute due to a flight change and they were completely accommodating.

I had a great first experience boarding my dog, Ellie, with Devta for a 6-day span of time. From the first meet-up in introducing Ellie to Devta and Olive, Devta was able to create strong space for me to ask any questions that I had. She was communicative and was interested in learning about Ellie and her nuances, commands and tricks, schedule and routine, etc. During the stay, Devta sent consistent pics and updates on how Ellie was doing and was attentive to her behavior and vibe, how she was adjusting, how she was interacting with other dogs, etc.. When I ran into issues with my travel/flights, Devta was flexible and was able and willing to watch Ellie for another evening which was greatly appreciated. Ellie's transition home was incredibly smooth after her almost week-long stay, which was a tell-tale sign she did really well with Devta. Would very much recommend for boarding!

Sharee took great care of our dogs for one day, and I was delighted to have them stay again when we went out of town. Sharee probably takes better care of them than I do and is obviously an animal lover and patient. The communication was exceptional with lots of updates, so I felt like I always knew what they were up to. I would book with Sharee again.
