“Doug was so easy to work with and accommodating. My dogs had a lovely time with him. Even though one of my girls got sick with tummy troubles a couple of days before the stay, he agreed to still watch all 3. Stellar experience overall”


“This is Sasha's 3rd stay with Pat this year! Pat is extremely accommodating when it comes to our dropoff/pickup schedules. This past visit, we were an hour late dropping Sasha off due to an accident blocking both lanes were driving on. We kept her apprised of what was happening via text. Pat was understanding with no problem and looked forward to seeing Sasha when we finally arrived.”
“Rosalia gave our dog excellent care and lots of attention. We received plenty of updates so we were always comfortable our dog was doing well. We found Rosalia to be very responsive and flexible and are happy to be booking with her again for a much longer trip.”

“Savannah did an excellent job with Quantum. She spoiled him with treats and walks and we got daily photos and updates. It was great being able to know he was happy and safe while we were away.”

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.
“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%.”

“My biggest grudge is when someone expresses when they only gave one star " cuz they couldn't give any less"... When do we support local business and recognize our community for the good that surrounds us? !!! Recognize beauty people!!!!! This man is the real thing; a dog whisperer through and through. Incredibly kind, greeting my pup with a treat at first meet. Communication is HUGE for me. Pics were shared - almost immediately - and direct messages were alleviating. We all want to know our loved ones are in the best care. Michael is communicative, engaging with the guests, and truly, one of a kind. I'd book him immediately, if he doesn't forget my little girl...”

“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!”

“Alexandria took lots of pictures and sent updates of Bailey. She made him part of the family and Bailey seemed like he had a great time! He can be shy and slow to warm up to new people so he most have felt really comfortable with Alexandria and her family.”

“Joshua was great with our dogs. He has a big backyard with lots of room for play and relaxation. He was good at keeping us informed on how our dogs were doing and even sent pics. Love that he took the time to make sure our dogs got a walk daily. Will definitely use him again!”

“Thomas, Matthew, and George were great with Ruckus while we took a two week trip. Our dog is an Aussie, a very excitable breed. They treated him as a member of the family and he was happy while we were gone and happy to come home. They sent photos every day along with a small update. They were a great sitting family.”

“Alexandria always does such a great job watching my kitty 🥰 She makes sure to play with her and give her lots of attention. Thank you for your wonderful service!!”


“August was great with our two cats well we were out of town for a week! Came by everyday to feed them, clean the litter box and play with them! Gave us great updates each day with photos! This was the first time I was away from my cats for that long and I felt at peace knowing August was there taking care of them and giving them some love. Very professional! Would definitely book with August again in the future!”

“Lauren did an amazing job watching my two kitties, Sushi and Miso! Miso is a bit of a shy guy but I knew she did great when she mentioned he began to warm up to her :) I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a pet sitter, very communicative throughout my trip and very sweet with them both! Thank you again Lauren!”

“Leah is our go-to sitter!! She is reliable, communicative, and so sweet to our fur family. We appreciate her pictures, videos, and diligent care of our three very charismatic kitties. Thanks Leah!! 😻”


“Rachel is just wonderful! We were out of contact for the 2 weeks that she watched our 2 kitties, one of whom was recently very ill. She interacted with our outgoing cat & sent pictures of his bliss, and also just checked on the other who was under the bed each time she arrived. Both cats were happy and healthy when we arrived and the shy cat had even put on weight. The litter area and cat food areas were left spotless, and it was obvious that she takes this job seriously. Rachel is extremely personable and did not hesitate to meet and interact with our outgoing cat. We will always use her as a sitter! Anyone with a hiking cat can't be wrong for a cat sitter!”


“My cat Storm is always so happy with Tabitha. I was delighted to find this out as sometimes with other sitters storm has pulled his hair out. I don’t have to worry about this at all with Tabitha”

“Angela is a great cat sitter! Our cat Pounce was well cared for and we appreciated the photo updates. Thank you Angela for making our first time using Rover a smooth experience!”

“Hannah is an excellent pet sitter/animal caregiver. I highly recommend. From the first correspondence to the last, we felt comfortable putting her in charge of our pet family while we were out of town. She was very communicative and competent! She took care of our three cats and it was clear that they were happy and healthy the whole time Hannah cared for them (from reports and pictures). She left the house very clean and our cats were happy and calm when we got back. She gave specialized care to one of our cats, he is asthmatic and she administered his medicine. Normally sitters and caregivers get a bit overwhelmed with this, but she did great. Hannah did exactly what we asked for with all other caregiving and sitting tasks. I hope we can book her in the future when we need a pet sitter.”

“Amber really helped me out when my usual pet sitter was out of town over the holidays and she was amazing! She took great care of my cat Xena and was very attentive to her diet and exercise. She even took her for a walk outside on her harness. I appreciate her being able to come by a little last minute, and would love to work with her again in the future! Thank you Amber!”


“Josephine was wonderful! She was kind, caring, compassionate, and quick to respond if any issues arose. She was professional and treated my cats like they were her own. I would absolutely use her services again in the future!”

“Jessica was a great cat sitter! All instructions were followed and she was great at communicating. Skittles seemed very happy upon my return! I would book with her again.”


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, etc.
“I was nervous about leaving my kittens for the first time but they absolutely loved Cerah and she took great care of them while I was away. She always sent photos during her visits and it was great to see them playing and happy. I will absolutely book Cerah again!”
About: Hi I’m Rachael! I have owned multiple dogs, cats, and even horses throughout my life. I absolutely love animals and I have a great backyard for any sized dog. I love being outside so I’d love to walk your dog for you, take care of you hound, or even come check on him/her. I have a great energy and deal well with both shy and very social dogs. I’m not like most sitters! I do this because I truly enjoy being with dogs. I will always be completely professional and upfront with you. I am happy to chat with you first, send you pictures of the yard/house, or provide anymore details. Thanks so much for your time and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

About: I've had cats throughout my life and have cared for three different cats with unique personalities and needs. Through feeding, playtime, grooming, and providing daily care, I've learned how to help cats feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I understand that every cat is different, and I enjoy taking the time to earn their trust and make sure they're happy while their owners are away.

“Peter did a great job with our dog despite the challenges that a young dog brings. He was extremely professional and took care of our dog like his own. We received updates and photos throughout the day which was great as well. He has a real passion for dogs and is a caring & trustworthy person. Thanks again!”
“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!”

“Jamie was very friendly and communicated with me during the stay. She has young kids in the home for playtime with my small dog along with a friendly poodle of her own.”

“Cecilia and family were very kind and understanding of Buffalo’s insecurity being left behind. Her dogs were very kind with my dog and had no issues. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures that reassured me that Buffalo was comfortable and safe.”

“Jody was amazing with our new rescue, Teddy. She was very communicative and worked with us on all of Teddy's quirks like separation anxiety and leash reactivity. Teddy definitely had a fun day full of fun and adventure! We super appreciate Jody working with us on such late notice and for being so kind!”

“I was visiting town and needed a last-minute dog daycare option, and she was fantastic. She was very responsive and took the time to meet me and my pup beforehand, which made me feel comfortable right away. My pup was tired from the day and all the activities, but she handled her with both care and confidence. She quickly became part of the pack, played with the other dogs, and came back happily exhausted. She also sent photos and text updates, which I really appreciated. I especially liked how attentive she was with my pup’s prescribed medication. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was safe, cared for, and having a great time while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Kim is WONDERFUL!! She is always accommodating and loving with my two fur babies “Finch” & “Cash.” They always know where they’re going when we drive towards her house lol Kim is always understanding and accommodating when I’m running later than usual to pick up my fur babies. I cannot appreciate her more! Finch & Cash always look happy and wiggly when I pick them up :)”

“Diane was so great with our senior rescue poodle. She looked happy in the photos she sent. Tail was wagging when we picked up and she got lots of snuggles. We will be using her again!”

“Far and away a better experience than the first go on Rover. She kept us informed with text updates and pictures of the doggos. Sweet hounds and plenty of space to roam. Your dogs are safe in her hands!”

“Michael was very helpful and accommodating. I believe he did his best with Rocco to keep him occupied. Rocco has separation anxiety, but Michael made the efforts to gain his trust in a limited timeframe. We were very appreciative with his services!”

“Jason is great! My pups love going to his house for daycare. They are older and its always hard to find a place where they are comfortable like they are at home, but they are always excited whenever I drop them off!”

“Rita was great and super welcoming. My dog looked like he had a great day with her, she had other pups there so it was even better so he’d be with company. Her updates were great and she’s super flexible with her schedule. Overall was a great first experience with rover.”


“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.”

About: I have had dogs for many years and loved them all. Whippets and rescues, poodles, and mixed breeds have all found love in my home. I have cared for dogs of others, both in my home and as a house sitter. (I will housesit for cats but cannot have them in my home due to family member allergy). I have cared for puppies and all ages, including senior dogs. Medication, feeding, walks, playing, loving...all can be done. I am retired from working as an art therapist. We have a young pup at home who loves other dogs. I am home throughout the day and will work with needed schedules. When I am out on errands, etc, my pup currently is free to roam the house. We have a fenced yard, a dog door, and easy care home. I will work with whatever requirements are needed to make sure your fur baby is safe and sound.
“Bonni was good with our little Havanese dog. I liked the yard area including some grass. Bonni was accommodating to our schedule of daytime/evening schedules. We took our dog with us at night. Thanks Bonni!”

“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!”

About: I have had cats and dogs around since I was a child. I have been boarding for almost 2 years, and walking/doing check-ins for nearly 8 years. I started out doing walks to help fill my want for pets. But now that I have two of my own, I realized this is something I really love doing and it is always a joy to meet other peoples' fur babies. In my home, I do have one other dog who LOVES to play and gets along with every animal and human he meets. I have a scaredy cat, and a handful of kiddos who I have taught animal etiquette to since they were all babies. We have cared for the smallest dogs to the largest. We have had older dogs, puppies, dogs recovering from surgery, and females in heat (although not at the moment until our puppy is fixed). We love your babies like they are our own, and love to be able to take them with us if we ever go on any adventures while they are here (of course, with permission!) I am a stay at home mom, so I am home the majority of the day to care for any animals in my home. My kids are AMAZING with animals, as I have taught lots of animal etiquette over the years caring for animals -- and now that we have our own fur babies too. In my home, we just treat your fur babies like one of our own. We give them lots of attention, play time, walk time, etc. I also incorporate your schedules with ours (ie feeding, etc). If there are any special requests, I fulfill those needs. When I go to a clients home, I respect everything around me and be as gentle and careful as to make sure that the fur babies are comfortable with me in their home.
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.
“Thank you for the quick response. Sombra is awesome and usually have a friend pick her up on unexpected longer days but they weren't available. Lauren was able to step in on a moments notice. 🐾 of thanks!”

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets..." I work for my self.

I'm very respectful for other people's things, and I'll follow pet owners request and recommendations to take care of their home and pets.and if your pet likes a special treat please let me know. 😊

“Pogo loved Jennifer. She is so kind and caring and dependable. Pogo is full of life and can be a handful at the door, excited to see Jennifer, and she was able to handle settling him down and getting his harness and leash on easily. He looked forward to her coming to walk him twice a day. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone needing someone to assist with dog walking.”

“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!”

“We are thrilled to have found Shell! I truly appreciate that she does a meet and greet and lets us know if the dogs would be a good fit or not. It shows me that she truly cares about the pups and their well being. She treated my dogs like family—making sure they were well-fed and exercised. I got photos and messages that showed just how comfortable and content they were; one even made a best friend! Both the dogs came home exhausted which shows us how great of a time they had. I think they were a little sad when they came back home because at Shells they got to play 24/7! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring to watch your pets, look no further. I will 100% book Shell again without hesitation. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my pups, we will see you again soon!”

I had to go out of town for a few days and was concerned about what I was going to do. Onrae was easy to communicate with from the start with the meet and great, sent photos and videos daily. She had a great time and came back just as happy as I left her. I would definitely use him again”
