“This is my first time using Rover. Safe to say Preston had a great time! He slept all day when I picked him up to take him home. I was very anxious about using Rover for the first time, but Bonni kept me updated with pictures every day and is very accommodating. Highly recommend.”

“Patricia does a great job caring for my two small dogs. One of my dogs recently had a tummy issue, and was still weaning back to kibble from a chicken & rice diet when they went to Patricia's. Patricia was willing to follow the schedule I provided, and mix my dog's kibble with chicken and rice to finish weaning her back to pure kibble. My dogs get along with Patricia's small dog, Sophie, and enjoy their surroundings during their stay (Patricia has a beautiful patio and spends time with them outside). They always come back happy and healthy. Patricia is a great sitter!”

“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.”

“Savannah was amazing! Extremely communicative radically from the Dan. Super thankful she was able to take care of Joey while on vacation! Would highly recommend and would absolutely go to again!”

“Can't say enough about these guys. When our dogs hear Patrick pulling into the driveway for pickup, they grab their leashes and start jumping around and barking with excitement. I feel confident that when they leave the house that they are always well cared for. If I could leave 6 stars I would. I won't go anywhere else.”

“Leslie and James were so great to Angel. When I dropped him off I knew my little dog was in good hands. Leslie was very communicative on how he was doing in their home, and she even sent me pictures of him happily getting along with their sweet dogs. I am so grateful for Leslie and James taking him last minute. I know in the future we have a safe option for boarding Angel ☺️ 🐶”


“Pat is great. I was so worried to leave my puppy with someone else but Pat is so kind and took all my worries away. Bella was with her for two nights and I'm pretty sure she had a great time. She really likes Pat and we will definitley use her service again. We highly recommend Pat.”

“Our puppy had the absolute best time! She was shy at first since there were many dogs, but once she got used to them she was having a blast. We received updates every single day including pictures and videos of our puppy having fun! We’ll definitely book Rebecca again for our next vacation.”

“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.”

“Rachel was great. I was nervous to leave my new kitten as she was still very young, Rachel was knowledgeable and I felt safe leaving Bianca with her. She was very attentive to messages. Gave me updates and pictures everyday. Would definitely use her again if the need arose.”

“My dog Ariel had a very good stay at Mike’s. She is usually scared of men and prone to separation anxiety. She felt right at home with Mike! Communication with him was easy, his home is great to host and the neighborhood seems safe for dog walks. I would trust him with my precious companion again!”

“Celine was awesome! She took awesome care of our baby and she communicated with us every day. Our dog was very well taken care for and I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Fantastic experience with Josie and Paco feel like we left our dog with extended family. Luska will miss them terribly. Communication was great, the updates made us feel better about leaving our puppy. Thanks again, Josie”

“Rosalia was amazing! She kept me updated all day with messages & tons of cute pictures. My dog looked happy and loved all the cuddles given to her. Her dog Kiki was such a good girl too, she didn't mind sharing the attention. If I lived in Albuquerque, I'd totally book Rosalia everytime!”

“This is the second time I’ve booked with Maellen, she is my go-to when I need to board my dog. My dog is a very shy dog but has really come to trust Maellen and her husband. She loves their yard and all the walks! I look forward to booking Maellen in the future! She is amazing!”


“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.”

“Liz was so great caring for our dog for 4 days! She was responsive, sent me lots of pictures and details about his day and genuinely seemed to care and love him. I will definitely use her again if we need a pet sitter”

“Vanessa was an absolutely amazing sitter! She answered all my question right away prior to the boarding. I had to drop my dog off a little early and pick her up a little late and she was super accommodating and very communicative. She watched my baby for six days and I received pictures and updates daily so I didn’t feel concerned because she was well taken care of and in good company playing with Vanessa’s dogs as well. I also think she might’ve given her a bath on the last day because she smelled good when I picked her up. She is such a sweet and caring person I definitely look forward to booking with her in the future!”

“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!”

“Jennifer is dependable, reliable, and professional. Felix really likes her and she is good with him and to him. Jennifer left our home neat and cleaned up (cat dishes, litter box etc) and followed all instructions. I highly recommend Jennifer and Felix will see her again, I am am sure! Thank you Jennifer!!”


“Rachel, Thank you so much for the excellent care you’ve given Tufay, the garden, flower pots and Mr. Toad. You are an excellent care giver. You have our highest recommendation. Best regards, Stephanie & Vern”

“Leslie was fantastic with our two cats! We are full time travelers and our situation is a little strange (she had to visit our RV park to feed them) but she was amazing. She sent pictures of the cats each day so we knew they were happy and safe. Would definitely have her watch our cats again.”


About: Though never having any of my own, many of my friends have cats and they’ve become like my own! I grew up watching the neighbors cats as well. Through experience, friends and online research, I’ve come to know how to care for fish, birds, turtles, dogs and cats. Sitting for my friends with kitties, I came to know cats and dogs are very different. Cats enjoy a more gentle demeanor though they do enjoy their enrichment time as well! I would love to play and care for your kitties as well.

“Jessica is a fantastic cat sitter! She has watched my cat Cookie twice, and both times she was so thorough with her care and made sure Cookie got playtime and cuddles. I will always feel comfortable having Jessica take care of my pets :)”


About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. From dogs and cats to horses, birds, fish, and even ferrets, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my days with so many wonderful animals over the years. Each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and companionship, and I carry that experience with me into every pet I care for. Right now, I share my home with a lively crew—a sweet senior Husky hybrid who’s 15 years old, a playful 7-month-old Cattle Dog, two affectionate cats (one a sprightly senior of 14 years), and a handful of fish who bring calm and beauty to my space. Because of them, I have firsthand experience with pets at every stage of life. I understand the patience and special attention seniors need, as well as the energy and safe guidance puppies and kittens require as they grow. My passion for animals has inspired me to pursue a career as a Veterinary Technician, but no matter the path, one thing is certain: caring for animals will always be at the heart of what I do. I love spending time outdoors with pets, going on walks, playing their favorite games, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet snuggles and gentle care, I’ll treat them like one of my own. When your furry (or feathered, or finned!) family members are with me, you can feel confident that they’ll be cared for with warmth, patience, and lots of love.

“As always, I had a wonderful experience with Celine. She was professional, caring, and attentive to my pet’s needs. I appreciated her regular updates. My cats were happy and relaxed upon my return. I highly recommend her”

About: I've cared for pets my whole life - as a child, through adulthood, and with my own family. Now, my wife and I have Zeus and Nala, two adorable lab mixes who rule our life with walks, baths, and dinner time. I'm a longtime professional transitioning to a new career. Currently, I have no recurring commitments and have lots of availability and flexibility for intermittent or regular walks and sitting. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. I'm at home most of the day, and the doors stay open with access to a breezy porch and lots of sunlight.
“Alejandra did a great job with lots of communication and photos. She also was great at navigating any mishaps, like escaping chickens. Would definitely book again!”


“Highly, highly recommend! Denise is a caring animal lover with heaps of experience from all her work at the animal humane. My rescue felt comfortable with her very quickly and was well cared for during the week+ that I was away. On top of that, my house was in great condition when I got back. Thanks, Denise, for the daily photos, clear communication, and for being so great at what you do!”


About: I have 7 years experience owning my own cat, and 1 year of experience cat-sitting for family and friends. I have given cats baths (with minimal scratches), administered medication (liquid and solid), and took care of my cat after she was spayed. Whether your cat is clingy or prefers co-existing, I'd be honored to take care of them!
“Jessica went above and beyond to make sure our cats were well taken care of as well as helping my wife with some tech issues! Super communicative and sent pictures, would absolutely recommend her and will be booking again in the future!”


About: I have loved cats since my childhood and have several of my own. I have cared for cats of all ages and sizes, the youngest being 2 weeks old and the oldest being 23 years old. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with responsibilities such as administering medications, special diets, sub-q fluids, etc.

“Kim was very conscientious about Laylas care. I got updates daily with some pictures. I wasn't clear on some things but Kim figured it out and Layla had all she needed.”
About: I have had and loved dogs ever since I was a kid. I still will choose dogs over people any day and look forward to spending time with your dog. Pet care is my primary job and look forward to making time for your pet. I know we don’t all have time to give our pets the attention we want, but that’s what I am here for! I have a fenced yard Ready to accommodate any size dog! I have friendly dogs that will be happy to keep your dog company while they miss you!

Would definitely recommend and Toast can’t wait for her next adventure day!”

“Mike was an incredible sitter. My little guy, Walter, took to him because he was so friendly. He gave me updates throughout the day and made sure my dog was walked, fed, and well loved. Would recommend and work with Mike again!”

About: I love animals and want to give them the care they deserve.. I have a puppy who loves people and dogs! I can give dogs 3 walks a day and if needed, hourly bathroom breaks. I’m great with time management and can give food or medicine at the correct times. I will give your animals the love and care they deserve while you’re away. I am an active person so I can take dogs to the park and play fetch with them. I have had cats and dogs growing up and am very comfortable around animals and love to care for them. I also have also cared for bunnies and rabbits when I was younger so I’m also comfortable around small animals I’m working part time and can be a available within the same day notice. Im free on weekends and Wednesday Thursday Saturday and Sunday for dog walking or sitting. I have a fenced yard and a small dog to give your dog company! I have lots of treats and live near a park for playtime throughout the day!

“Rob was very friendly, helpful and accommodating, and our dog Laifu was so happy he didn’t seem to want to leave. Will call Rob next time we need help in Albuquerque”

About: I volunteer at Animal Humane as a dog walker at their main campus weekly. I’ve always been an animal lover and I think my coworkers notice because I dog-sit for them whenever they are out of town. I’ve dog-sat 4 dogs at a time and loved it very much. I also grew up with a brother who is a professional dog trainer in LA so I understand the structure that goes with having a pet. I have a very flexible job so I’m really available during the mornings and on weekends. My job is even a work environment where we bring our pets to work. But I’m always around town to check on a pet. I have 2 blue heelers who are super friendly. I have them trained to a T. So they understand their routine and play well with other dogs. I’m very good with using words clients use to train their dogs as well as if any dog has medication or health concerns I’m used to taking care of them as well.

“Always amazing! Punnarai is caring and attentive. My pup is excited to be dropped off and (sadly for me) tentative to leave the fun environment she creates for him while he’s there. Definitely recommend.”

“Ethanee has been sitting/walking my oliver since he was two months old. He ADORES her and I’m so grateful for her care. She’s attentive, kind, communicative, punctual and respectful of my home/care requests for him. I will use her as long as her schedule allows!”

About: I had a lot of cats and dogs growing up, and I was the neighborhood dog sitter basically from the time I could ride a bike until I left for college. I know for many people today their pets are a furry part of the family, so I would treat them with the same love and care I give my cats and dobies, and make sure your animals are genuinely cared for while you are away. I know what it means to be a good and responsible sitter, and I can guarantee if you trust me with your pets you will not regret it! I'm offering drop-in sitting and dog walking, and I cannot wait to have the opportunity to meet your pets. I work full time, but am available outside of standard working hours to spend plenty of time with your pups! I have pets of my own so I know how important it is to spend time with them & make sure they are happy while you are away. When caring for pets, I always make sure to guarantee they have a comfortable and clean environment as well as plenty of play time (for their benefit & because I just love dogs!)
“Greg has met with Sasha for a meet and greet, then the next day for a 60 minute walk. My Sasha came home exhausted and happy! Looking forward to doing more business with Greg.”
About: I’ve always had a variety of pets in my house. Growing up my family cared for dogs, turtles, fish, hamsters, frogs, hermit crabs, and chickens. We never owned a cat because my mom is allergic to them but since I moved in with my auntie during university, I have lived with one and have loved it! With my grandma, we currently have 6 dogs! We had two (a chihuahua mixed with poodle and another mixed dog) who are the parents of the other four. I was the only one in my house present when my doggy gave birth to all her babies and I was more than excited to be there with her :) I’m a full-time university student at NMSU. I made this account because I plan to be available everyday during my breaks. This might change for a couple of days but I’m not sure yet. Since I will be on break I also plan to be available nights and weekends. My dogs are family dogs and live outside. I don’t have a house of my own but live with my grandma and mom along with my three siblings and one cousin. The dogs are cared for amongst all family members.
“Hector has been a fantastic dog walker for Dolly. She adores him and looks forward to their walks. Hector is consistently prompt and flexible with scheduling, making it easy to coordinate even on busy days. Highly recommend his services! He is reliable, caring, and a great fit for Dolly!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was about 12 years old for my neighbors and family and friends. I’m experienced in house sitting, drop ins and dog walking. I also have experience in giving medication to animals and any other special instructions. I currently work full time at the airport Friday through mondays. But I always strive to work with your pets needs. I own two cats myself. I will follow instructions left for me on how to care for pets and check in continuously also uploading pictures of pets.

“Kristle did an awesome job checking on and walking both my dogs together. Both of them are strong and my younger dog can be a challenge. She communicates well and sent me pictures. She went above and beyond what I asked. I will certainly be asking her to walk my dogs in the future! ”

“We were looking for a trustworthy, dependable walker for our rambunctious dog and Melissa fits the bill! She seems like a genuinely good person who our dog just adores. It's hard to let a stranger handle your beloved pets. Your friend is in good hands with Melissa! We'll continue to use her for daily walks.”
About: I’ve spent many years making tails wag both professionally and personally! As a seasoned groomer, I’ve mastered the art of turning “ruff” days into paw-sitive experiences. Beyond the salon, I’m a devoted pet parent who knows that every whisker, paw, and wagging tail deserves love, attention, and care. From quick drop-ins to full pet sitting, I bring a “fur-tastic” mix of expertise, patience, and heart—ensuring your pets feel pampered, safe, and happily spoiled while you’re away. I am a dedicated animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets. While I work full-time, I make it a priority to ensure that every animal I care for receives attention, love, and responsible supervision. I understand that pets thrive on consistency and companionship, and I am committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment during every visit. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or extended pet sitting, I bring reliability, empathy, and a deep appreciation for animals to every interaction. Your pets will feel loved, secure, and happy under my care. A typical day for my pets starts with a hearty breakfast followed by some scheduled outdoor time to stretch, explore, and enjoy the fresh air. Throughout the day, I make sure they get attention, play, and care suited to their needs. The day winds down with an evening walk to burn off any extra energy, followed by a cozy cuddle session to relax and bond before bedtime. Every day is about keeping pets happy, healthy, and feeling loved from sunrise to snuggle time.

“My dog and I met Cindy and her dog before we boarded with her for the first time. It was apparent right away that she was capable of providing a good, caring home environment for my dog. I felt very comfortabke knowing he would be in the best place away from home. My 12 year old dog takes daily meds that were adminustered properly.

I highly recommend Cindy as a dog sitter and have booked our next visit She is the type of person you can feel confident leaving your beloved pets with.”

“I absolutely recommend Bill to care for your pup. My guy loved his stay with Bill and his family. I was a nervous mom dropping her boy off, but Bill made the drop-off smooth. I received daily pictures and knew my dog was being well taken care of, even a little spoiled. Thanks Bill!”

“Shell and her family took in my persnickety old pooch with open arms. Our Meet and Greet went well and I felt confident in her professionalism. My feelings were spot on, as I received text updates and photos of him enjoying the good life at Shells. When we arrived to pick him up, he was so busy being part of the family he almost didn't recognize us! That was a great sign and made me know he was in top shape. He came home happy and well rested. He never showed the least bit of stress that is always displayed after boarding episodes at kennels - no matter how attentive or nice they were. Her house and yard are beautiful, clean, tranquil and inviting; it's a wonderful HOME. A safe environment for "sensitive" dogs. I've already told everyone I know with a dog about Dog VaCay and Shell, and what a great concept and home we found in both.”
“Jamie did an excellent job dog-sitting! She was very communicative, kind, and responsible. She took excellent care of our dog and we would use her again and recommend her highly.”

“Leigh did a great job! My pup Rocky and I were new to Santa Fe and I needed to take a 6 day trip out of town. After reviewing several pet sitters on Rover.com I reached out to several. Leigh had great reviews and repeat customers. She was willing to have my pup in her home, along with her dog and cat. Everything went very well. She provided regular updates, photos, and even dog park video. I was pleased how well my dog did during his stay. It was obvious Leigh loves animals and makes them feel comfortable while in her care. Highly recommend Leigh as a pet sitter and will use her in the future.”

“Doug did a great job taking care of my German Shepherd's. I have never used this app before and he eased my mind by sending me updates and pictures. The dogs came back home, healthy, and happy.”
