“Tawnia is great! She’s so patient with my pups, esp since one likes to pull and the other has been defensive of our home. But Tawnia does so well with both pups and we love having her for walks!”

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I have poured my love and dedication into every moment I spend with them. I am comfortable and confident in administering medication to dogs, always gentle and patient. Playtime, walkies, baths… they’re more than tasks; they’re opportunities to bond, to share joy, and to show your beloved pet how truly special they are. I am tuned into dog body language, knowing exactly when to give space and when to offer comfort. I don’t force interaction or push boundaries. Yet, I won’t hesitate to get down on the floor, to play, cuddle, and love just like I do with my own furry family. When you call on me, you’re not leaving your precious baby with a stranger - you’re entrusting them to someone who truly believes they are family, deserving of all the love and care in the world. I currently work remote which means I have flexibility throughout the day to visit with your dog - whether that means cuddles, walks, or practicing the tricks we already know. For house sitting, I’m happy to stay with your pet all day (arriving as early as 7:30am and ending the day at 10pm, with a few hours away during lunch and in the afternoon) as long as you have decent WiFi. Please note, I am not able to stay at your home overnight. I believe parents make the rules! I am flexible to your requests because you know what works best for your dogs. Do they need to be crated? Do they need the TV on all night for comfort? Do they need their teeth brushed? Do they need to be walked right before bedtime? I can do it all. I am happy to transport to and from specific walking trails, dog parks, etc.. Want to socialize your dogs but having them leave your house makes you nervous? I can bring my dogs with me to visit your pup! I’ll follow your lead because you know what’s best.

About: Hello! I have taken care of pets for 11 years and understand how important it is for furry babies to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, especially when their humans are away. I specialize in house sitting and drop-in visits, allowing pets to stay in the comfort of their own home and maintain their normal routines. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, medication, litter box care, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents complete peace of mind so you can fully enjoy your trip or vacation knowing your pets and home are in caring, responsible hands. I’m attentive, reliable, and respectful of your space, and I always prioritize your pet’s well-being, safety, and emotional comfort. If you’re looking for someone you can trust to care for your pets while you’re away, I’d love to help! I work remotely on a flexible schedule as a government contracting consultant, so I am available to work visits into my daily schedule, or work from your location if house sitting. I will follow all instructions provided and communicate with you so that you know your pets are taken care of and safe! It's important to me that you feel confident with your pets' care while you're away.
“Leah is fantastic with Dobby. Our first meet and greet last month went very well with my normally reactive dog. But once Dobby sensed Leah’s energy - kind and safe - he had trust in her. He is excited when he see’s Leah and they have really good walks where his tongue is hanging out. We are grateful to have Leah help out with walking Dobby each week!”

“Eden is great. She is very pleasant and calm. She has been walking my Australian Cattle Dog for just over a week, and she does just what we asked her to do which was to poop her out some! Mission accomplished!! Thank you Eden!”

About: Hello! I’m Lexi and I am a licensed veterinary technician and a Medaille College graduate from Buffalo, NY. I moved to new mexico to pursue a new job that involves working with a multitude of different animals. I have 6+ years of petsitting alone, along with the testimonials and references as proof🥰. I currently have three furbabies which are two cats and a dog. They are all from the rescue shelter and are living their best lives being spoiled. As you can tell, I am an animal lover and so I can’t wait to meet yours!🩷🐾 I have a full time job being a licensed veterinary technician. My schedule is usually 6:30 to 3 pm Monday through Friday but can vary. 🤷🏻♀️ My fur babies aren’t pet friendly. I prefer to stay the clients house so their animals will be stress free and be provided with the best care.
About: I am a friend to all dogs and cats! I have had pets all my life and love taking care of fur babies. I work from home and am always available for a drop in, daycare, and especially a home for the holidays. I have a friendly small dog and aloof cat in my home . My home has a fenced in yard with plenty of grass for potty breaks. I am also experienced with giving medicine in case your little one has any conditions which require said service. Whether it's going for a long walk around the neighborhood or taking a trip to the dog park, I promise your pets will be happy and safe with me! I work from home as I mentioned so I am available for all of my services anytime. I take my work phone with me so if I need to stop by during business hours, it is perfectly fine! I care for every animal by giving them love and attention. I am the kind of person who enjoys spending time with animals so whether they’re in my home or I go to your home I always enjoy spending quality time with them and making sure they know they are safe and well cared for.
“My dog gets better at walking every time they take her out. She and I are both learning new tricks to keep her from pulling and being overly reactive. I'm so happy when I take her for a walk and she actually behaves!”


“Rose helped me out in a pinch with my puppy Chase. Rose responded promptly to the request, came to meet us and receive instructions. Rose was very kind, calm and loving with Chase. He loved her and I would absolutely use her again! Thanks!”


“Most of the Rover sitters have been great, but we were starting to run into scheduling and response-time problems with the 20-somethings. I decided to try Patricia (started out by walking both our dogs) and she is the mature and responsible dog sitter/walker we've been looking for. We plan to have Patricia do some house sitting for us soon when we can take some badly-needed time away from our business.”
“Jenny has been an amazing caretaker for my 8.5 year old shepherd/doberman pup. She's excellent with communication and very flexible for daily walks while I'm at work. When I get home, my dog is clearly well exercised and taken care of. I highly recommend Jenny (but also please don't steal her from us)!”

“Adrienne is awesome! She genuinely cares for your dog as if it’s her own. I have been using her for the last month and will continue to do so! Thanks for everything:)”

About: I go by Seven, I was born on a farm, I’ve worked with animals of the farm variety and of course, cats, dogs, and many more sense I was young. Volunteered at animal shelter, vets office, and farm animal facilities. I’m currently a UNM student so all my babies are at home but I plan to have my ESA Rosy join me soon, so I don’t see animals often outside of meeting fellow students pets. I have spent most of my years growing up with and around animals and have a lot of love and experience with them! I have classes T/Th 1-5pm and Fri-8am-noon, but other than that I’m free for any kind of help! I make sure to ask what rules or regulations have to be followed for both pet, home, and routine. I never wanna stress a pet out or an owner so I love to send photos and updates the whole time I’m there as well as make sure everyone is comfortable and happy with the job and care I give.
“We were really lucky to have Monique look after our pup. She’s highly professional, friendly, reliable. Best of all, our pup loved her and we will definitely book Monique again in the future as well as recommend her to all of our friends.”

About: Hello my name is Wendy. I am an assertive individual with a calm energy, who is flexible on size and breed, and with over ten years experience providing pet care. I own vehicle that can accommodate multiple dogs comfortably and take 2-3 walks daily, even in inclement weather. I have the flexibility of caring for puppies and understand the need for frequent potty breaks as well as playtime opportunities for socialization. I often board dogs from multiple families concurrently, and provide separate areas for meal time in order to keep feeding time safe. Play time is supervised and breed appropriate toys are available upon request to ensure a safe fun stay. If I am required to leave the house while caring for your pet, I separate all dogs and have a large crate available if needed I am self employed and able to make my own schedule. This allows me to accommodate a variety of needs that my clients may have. At my current residence, I have a fenced in back yard to allow for safe off leash exploration. I also, as mentioned, provide separate eating areas, to ensure a safe environment during mealtime.
Uptown dog parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker and sitter! Jenny did drop-in visits for our dogs while we were out of town, and we had complete peace of mind the entire time. She is incredibly reliable and trustworthy, and it was clear from the start how much she genuinely cares about animals. She made sure our dogs were well fed, kept their water bowls full, and took them on twice-daily walks. Most importantly, she made sure they weren’t lonely. She even squeezed in extra visits in her busy schedule just to give them more company and attention, which meant so much to us. She is also fantastic with communication. She sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day while we were gone. Our dogs absolutely loved her and always looked forward to seeing her. They would wait excitedly for her visits! It was obvious they felt comfortable and happy in her care. We came home to happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for pups. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and truly dedicated to caring for their pets.

Eden has been doing a great job walking our dogs. She was very kind and compassionate meeting our animals, one of which is front door aggression. She handled them so calmly that there was no issues, and has been taking our dogs on hour walks, tiring them out perfectly! Thank you!
We couldn’t be happier with Olivia! She is reliable, warm, and clearly experienced with animals. From the moment she met our two dogs, they took to her instantly—which says a lot, because one of them can be a little particular. It’s such a relief to know our dogs are in good hands. We highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker or sitter!
