“This is my second time sharing our Willow with Kelly and Maurice. Super kind, quick to respond, and I always know Willow is in great hands. Highly recommend!!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lindsay was absolutely amazing with my dog, Duke! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and attentive to all of my questions, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Throughout Duke’s stay, she kept me updated daily with pictures and videos, and I could clearly see how happy and well cared for he was. That level of communication meant so much and truly set her apart. It’s not easy leaving your fur baby with someone, but Lindsay made the entire experience smooth and stress free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dogsitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Duke! 🐾”
“Mady was great. Thank you for letting me drop Honey off early in the morning, and staying up close to midnight so that I could pick her up. You listened well to Honey’s needs, and I can tell she enjoyed herself in your big backyard. Would definitely use again.”

“It was my first time leaving my puppy in someone’s else’s care and she was amazing with that process. She has dogs for my pup to play with. Amazingly clean home. Kept updating me with pictures and replies right away to messages. She’s going to be my go-to person every time we visit El Paso.”
“I HIGHLY recommend Donna. She was GREAT with Prince and very communicative and kept me updated with Prince by sending photos and videos. She even trained him a little and he now knows how to go into his crate by command. I absolutely will hire Donna again, if she’s available. Thanks so much Donna!”
“If your fur baby is use to being spoiled rotten & loved on constantly.....Crystal is the paw-fect sitter for you!! 🐾 ❤️ She's kind, involved, keeps you updated daily on your baby's progress during the day & you get random photos of your baby walking, playing, etc. My CoCo loves her lots & so do we!!! ❤️”
“We had a great experience! Communication was excellent from start to finish, with daily updates that really put us at ease. It was clear our pup was well cared for and having a great time. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Mary. My dog struggles with separation anxiety, so leaving her can be stressful, but she was in incredibly capable and compassionate hands. From the start, it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she boards and takes the time to understand their individual needs. She was patient, attentive, and proactive in making sure my dog felt comfortable and secure. I received updates that gave me peace of mind, and it was obvious my dog was being well cared for. When I picked her up, she was calm, happy, and clearly had been treated with kindness. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Sabrina was a lifesaver! We booked to board with someone else and they canceled at the last minute. Sabrina was able to help us out. My pups LOVED her (8 year old golden doodle, and 2 year old mini poodle). We’ve found our new favorite pet sitter and we’ll be booking with her from now on.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Monica. Very professional, her attention to detail to ensure the safety of my fur baby and others was outstanding. Communication skills was excellent, when I had to reach out to her she responded quickly and made sure I understood everything. The main thing that I loved. was the report card!!! yes, she will send you a report card to let you know how your pet is doing plus picture. A+ will definitely use again.”
“She loves dogs truly. She let our little dog to sleep on her bed first night to let him feel like home. She updated and sent photos twice a day. The little dog seems to make the furry friends and like his stay”
“Chris was wonderful with my Labradoodle, Rambo! He made him feel right at home and kept him happy and playful the whole time. I could tell he was well cared for and loved. I’ll definitely book with Chris again!”
“Zulma took such great care of my two Shitzus Louie & Zoey. I got regular photo/video updates which I really appreciated. She asked for permission, which I gave, to bathe them, they were most likely smelly due to the weather. Can I tell you when we picked them up they were so silky, shiney and soft! Even more so than when they come from the groomers. I really must ask her what is the product she used! We will most definitely book her again!”
“After interviewing 4 other families, my babies picked Bianca & I was very pleased. This was their first time staying with any non-family and they did great! Bianca sent updates & pictures and that relieved my mind. I will use her again!”
“This was my first experience with a dog sitter. I could not have left my dog in better hands! Lots of updates, pictures and even a video were sent to me. While I expected my dog to be a bit depressed in my absence, Alicia filled my shoes perfectly. My dog took to her and her family right away. She took my dog on lots of walks and gave her lots of cuddles ...honestly - she did more than I do. Alicia has a nice backyard in which dogs can play. I definitely will use Alicia again if I need a dog sitter.”
“Laura was awesome! Chacco had a blast during his weekend sleepover and loved hanging out with the other pups. She took great care of him, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. He came home happy and tired—always a good sign! Definitely booking with her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!
About: I've owned animals all my life. Provide loving and attentive care for all your pet needs. Reliable, trustworthy, and dedicated to providing the best care for all animals! I'm currently SAHM looking to help people with all their animal care needs. I love working with animals and would love to take any stress off your mind when leaving your fur babies for any amount of time. In my home I love and care for one dog, two cats and a turtle. I have a full house which is why I can only provide home visits.
“Bri is amazing! Our cat Bandit has taken so well to her and it is a huge relief to know we can be out of town and 100% rely on Bri to take the best care of her. She‘s very thoughtful and incredibly flexible and I could not recommend her more!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jake, who stopped by twice to care for our three cats and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent throughout, and he was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about our cats’ well-being. We would absolutely trust Jake again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable and trustworthy pet care.”
“Jessica was very responsible and extremely caring and hands-on with our senior cat (and hamster too). She did several check-ins a day and spent many overnights which requires a high level of trust and Jessica went above and beyond. She communicated constantly with updates, pictures and videos (seriously, top-notch communication) and she left our home in perfect condition. Our animals took right to her and I am grateful to have found someone so kind and committed.”
“Great service. Taylor kept in touch with me the entire time. My BigBoy was taken great care of and Thank you for the extras you took care of too. Will definitely use her again.”
About: Hi! Cats have always been a huge part of my life, and I have years of experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds. I have a cat of my own, foster cats and kittens, and have worked in animal shelters caring for everything from tiny neonatal kittens to senior cats. Through my shelter experience, I’ve cared for friendly, shy, fearful, and even feral cats, so I understand that every cat has different needs and comfort levels. I use Fear Free handling techniques whenever possible to help cats feel safe, respected, and as stress-free as possible. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications and following any special care instructions your cat may need. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet company, or simply needs someone to keep their routine consistent while you’re away, I’ll provide patient, compassionate care and treat them like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your cat is in experienced, caring, and reliable hands.
“Goldie Loves Milanni! Milanni is someone I can count on for drop-ins or boarding when I’m traveling around the world. I appreciate how easy it is to communicate with her and she confidently takes care of business without any worry. Goldie appreciates Milanni being part of her caregiving community when I am away. I recommend Milanni for your pet and caregiving needs.”
About: I have had breeds of all shapes and sized my entire life. I care for my 2 year old border collie and I have experience handling cats as well. I want to make your pets feel at home even when you are away. I would want the best from my boy when I am away, so I want to provide that service to others! I am full-time employee so I can stop in before and after work on weekdays, and I am free weekends for endless playing ! (I can stay in the evening during the week until around 8-9) I am very respectful of other people’s spaces and would be happy to meet your animal where they are! I do NOT offer boarding currently.
“Faith has watched our Shiba Inus multiple times now, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. She’s reliable, responsive, and truly great with our dogs—even administering medication to our elderly Shiba with no issues. Most recently, she helped us out while we were in the hospital for the birth of our son. We weren’t sure how many drop-ins we’d need or how long we’d be gone, but she was incredibly flexible and quick to respond. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“I recently adopted Daisey and wasn't sure how she would do in daycare. Lindsay did an excellent job of caring for her and helped Daisey to settle into a new environment and enjoy the experience. She regularly sent me updates and photos of Daisey which helped put my mind at ease. Lindsay provided excellent care and I will definitely use her services again.”
About: Throughout this process I'm excited to meet all types of dogs! I love all breeds and sizes!

About: Hello, I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16. Mainly my own and my neighbors animals. I have had nothing but good reviews from them all! I currently do online school and am home all the time because of that. This leaves a lot of quality time I can spend with your animals. I have a single dog at home that is very friendly to keep your doggies company. If you have specific needs for your animals then I will make sure to follow them no matter what.
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for about five years and have raised my dog, Scooby, since he was a puppy. My husband and I worked closely on his training, socialization, manners, and recall and he has grown into a well-behaved dog who is comfortable around other dogs and can safely enjoy off-leash activities in appropriate settings. Because I have used Rover and dog daycare services for years, I understand what pet parents are really looking for: a sitter who communicates, follows instructions, provides updates, keeps dogs active, and treats every pet with patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic commands, different personalities, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. Scooby is friendly and enjoys being around other dogs, and our home includes two attentive adults who genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is safe, comfortable, supervised, and receiving plenty of attention while they are away. I am currently home full-time so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime and care throughout the day. I am flexible and happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. I live in a townhome with my husband and our friendly, well-trained dog, Scooby. While we do not have a fenced yard, our community has plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby. I can provide walks, playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation based on your dog’s individual needs and energy level.
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, since I can remember. I have potty trained puppies and taught them tricks. I have experience with senior dogs and special needs as well. I also used to have a hamster, a rat, and hedgehog. Currently I own one dog and a saltwater fish tank. I have plenty of experience with cats as well. I am comfortable with caring for farm animals to reptiles/amphibians. Just about anything! I’m pretty much a sucker for any animal. They all have my heart. I typically have plenty of time to care for your pet and I’m usually always available. I also have open availability on weekends and holidays as well. My schedule is flexible. I treat all animals as if they are my own. I will do what it takes to make sure that your pet is comfortable and enjoy their time that I care for them:)

“Marta was referred to me by our regular Rover sitter for coverage while on vacation. Marta was very welcoming and thorough in the meet and greet. She has a lovely space both inside and outside for all dogs and pups. She sent many pics throughout the day to report and assess how my dog was doing. Very kind and a true dog lover! Will gladly use again.”
About: I have a genuine love and passion for dogs and have been caring for them for many years. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I had two of my own dogs whom I loved and cared for throughout their lives, both living to approximately 15 years old. Caring for them from their younger years through their senior years gave me valuable experience understanding how a dog’s needs change as they age. I also have plenty of experience with puppies—including one very memorable night when I was caring for a pregnant dog while her owner was away and she unexpectedly went into labor in the middle of the night! I stayed with her throughout the delivery and helped welcome her puppies into the world. It’s an experience I’ll never forget and one that shows just how seriously I take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet. I understand that every dog is different. I’m comfortable following your dog’s established routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, crate routines, and plenty of affection and attention. I also understand that some dogs need time and patience to become comfortable with someone new. When your dog is with me, I want you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for by someone who will treat them with the same love, patience, attention, and compassion that I would want for my own pets. Whether you have a playful puppy, an energetic adult, or a senior companion who prefers a slower pace, I’d love the opportunity to care for them. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of affection. Because I’m home during the day, pets in my care won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m also able to follow each pet’s individual schedule and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like part of the family. I follow each owner’s instructions closely because I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I maintain their normal feeding and potty schedules, provide regular walks and playtime, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel comfortable. I supervise interactions with other pets and never force a dog into a situation that makes them uncomfortable.
“Danielle is great with Diggy. She keeps me updated during his stay and also send pictures. I truly appreciate her in taking care of my fur baby. Thank you, Danielle and you are greatly appreciated!!!”
“Laura did a great job with Beau- we did our first doggy day care with her. She has 3 other dogs of her own- I think Beau enjoyed playing with some (all?) of them. She sent pictures and was very responsive and flexible with timing. I appreciated it!”
“Brittany provided in-home doggy daycare for 4 consecutive days for my beagle pup. She’s very flexible with hours and great with communication and progress reports for your pup throughout the day. Also, she has a huge backyard for exercise and has dogs and cats to socialize with. Prior to doggy daycare, we stopped by to introduce the pup to the fam and Brittany inquired about pet likes, dislikes, any special needs, etc. Next time I’m looking for a sitter, Brittany will be my go-to!”
About: I have cared and trained service dogs. Many family and friends have counted on me to care for their pets and know that I will always put them first. I work about 4 hours a day during the week (Wednesday and Friday) and I’m never gone for over 6 hours at a time while at work. Otherwise I am mostly home and only away for 1-2 hours for errands. Pets have entire first floor. My dogs usually hang out in the huge couch or in the office watching the birds (I set up feeders to entertain my bird dog and he loves it). On nice days I’ll leave the back door open for them to come in/out as they please. They have water both inside and outside the house. Dogs love sunbathing but here is also shade area all day in case they want to stay outside but out of the sun. Backyard is completely fenced.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lindsay was absolutely amazing with my dog, Duke! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and attentive to all of my questions, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Throughout Duke’s stay, she kept me updated daily with pictures and videos, and I could clearly see how happy and well cared for he was. That level of communication meant so much and truly set her apart. It’s not easy leaving your fur baby with someone, but Lindsay made the entire experience smooth and stress free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dogsitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Duke! 🐾”
“Mady was great. Thank you for letting me drop Honey off early in the morning, and staying up close to midnight so that I could pick her up. You listened well to Honey’s needs, and I can tell she enjoyed herself in your big backyard. Would definitely use again.”
“It was my first time leaving my puppy in someone’s else’s care and she was amazing with that process. She has dogs for my pup to play with. Amazingly clean home. Kept updating me with pictures and replies right away to messages. She’s going to be my go-to person every time we visit El Paso.”
“I HIGHLY recommend Donna. She was GREAT with Prince and very communicative and kept me updated with Prince by sending photos and videos. She even trained him a little and he now knows how to go into his crate by command. I absolutely will hire Donna again, if she’s available. Thanks so much Donna!”
“Needed last minute care for the July 4th holiday and found Aaron and Tia! Very accomodating and happy i chose them! I was worried Howie would get anxious but the daily photos and videos assured me he was well cared for and happy! Thank you so much!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mary. My dog struggles with separation anxiety, so leaving her can be stressful, but she was in incredibly capable and compassionate hands. From the start, it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she boards and takes the time to understand their individual needs. She was patient, attentive, and proactive in making sure my dog felt comfortable and secure. I received updates that gave me peace of mind, and it was obvious my dog was being well cared for. When I picked her up, she was calm, happy, and clearly had been treated with kindness. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Chris was wonderful with my Labradoodle, Rambo! He made him feel right at home and kept him happy and playful the whole time. I could tell he was well cared for and loved. I’ll definitely book with Chris again!”
“After interviewing 4 other families, my babies picked Bianca & I was very pleased. This was their first time staying with any non-family and they did great! Bianca sent updates & pictures and that relieved my mind. I will use her again!”
“Laura was awesome! Chacco had a blast during his weekend sleepover and loved hanging out with the other pups. She took great care of him, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. He came home happy and tired—always a good sign! Definitely booking with her again.”
“Carlie was amazing with our puppy Sadie. It was our first time leaving her with anyone and it went so well. Lots of love to our sweet puppy and she was happy all day. Carly shared lots of pics as well. Highly recommend!”
“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”
“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“OMG! Marta is awesome. Prince enjoyed his time with Marta and Lucas. Marta sent pictures and updates on Prince every morning and every evening. Prince came back home well rested and relaxed and ready to go some more. I highly recommend Marta to take care of your fur baby. Marta is sensational, wonderful spirit and personality.”
About: Throughout this process I'm excited to meet all types of dogs! I love all breeds and sizes! Home is equipped with a secured 6’ privacy fence around approx. 1 acre for maximum play time or lounging. We have an almost 1 year old dog named Maggie who is very sweet, submissive, and loves to play and have doggie friends. Your baby will have a great time with us in our home! From training to loving and play, walking and feeding, it comes naturally to me and I can't imagine my life not surrounded by dogs or animals in general. You can count on me to handle any quirks, and treat your pet like my own - spoiled with scratches and belly rubs and play time! I work from home Monday through Friday so I will be very attentive to your pup for the full day they are here! We can coordinate many different drop off or pick up times to make it convenient for you I plan to make your dog, puppy feel as comfy as possible whether that means playing, cuddling, walking or being admired from a distance. I also plan to pay attention to all instructions provided and making sure you feel comfortable with me caring for your little love.
“Kiki is AWESOME! Our dog is on the older side and has some issues with allergies that, upon meeting for the first time, Kiki immediately noticed. I took that as a sign of empathy and caring, and felt I felt very confident leaving our dog, Rock, with her. Upon returning home, Rocky was happy, well-feed, and cared for. We HIGHLY recommend Kiki for dog sitting!!”
“My dog Moon loved his visit with Denise and her dog Andy. Decent size fenced in yard for play, which my dog loved. Updates and pictures were sent. Moon even ate his food while there which he rarely does even for his normal sitter. I should mention she is very accommodating. I was a last minute request and my hours for pickup and drop-off were odd. Would definitely use Denise again.”
“Ms. Kimberly is a delight! She took excellent care of my son and he had so much to tell me about when I picked him up lol. She warmly welcomed us in, explained her set up and everything I needed to know to feel comfortable leaving my pup with her. She also carefully followed the instructions we talked about and went above and beyond my expectations in keeping a safe and clean environment for each animal in her care. I would 200% book with Ms. Kimberly again! Thank you for all the pictures and videos, reassurance for me and my anxious pup, and welcoming us with such a warm inviting smile.”
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for about five years and have raised my dog, Scooby, since he was a puppy. My husband and I worked closely on his training, socialization, manners, and recall and he has grown into a well-behaved dog who is comfortable around other dogs and can safely enjoy off-leash activities in appropriate settings. Because I have used Rover and dog daycare services for years, I understand what pet parents are really looking for: a sitter who communicates, follows instructions, provides updates, keeps dogs active, and treats every pet with patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic commands, different personalities, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. Scooby is friendly and enjoys being around other dogs, and our home includes two attentive adults who genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is safe, comfortable, supervised, and receiving plenty of attention while they are away. I am currently home full-time so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime and care throughout the day. I am flexible and happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. I live in a townhome with my husband and our friendly, well-trained dog, Scooby. While we do not have a fenced yard, our community has plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby. I can provide walks, playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation based on your dog’s individual needs and energy level.
“Gio and Vanessa did an amazing job with our sweet puppy. They took extra special care of our girl when we needed a place for her to stay for one night. They treated her like their own. We are so thankful to have met them and will use them to watch our girl if we ever need help again! Highly recommend their family for your pets care. Thank you so much Gio and Vanessa!”
“My pups were very well taken care of during their stay! From the first conversation with Brian I felt comfortable leaving my fur babies in his care; meeting up and letting the dogs roam and get familiar was truly icing on the cake! Immediately my dogs explored his home as if it was our own (which NEVER happens) and they didn't bark at Bob or act uncomfortable while we were there. I got to know Brian and Bob and raved about the two of them to my husband as soon as I got home. Brian sent us tons of pictures during their time away from home, which kept me and my husband's worries at bay. Upon picking them up they were happy to see us but definitely were sad to have to leave. I'll most definitely be using Brian's services again in the future! 10/10 would recommend.”
