“Michael watched our fur baby for 13 days. She is approx. 14 yrs old, and we were worried about leaving her for such a long period of time. Michael's calm and easy demeanor was reassurance that she would be fine. She does not get along with other animals and as the only pet Michael watched he was able to provide her with individual attention. He sent photos daily, which we greatly appreciated. We will definitely use his services again. Michael, thank you for taking such good care of our family member!”

Thank you Rover and especially Cindy - you gave us peace of mind at a time when it meant so much.”

“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!”
“Gavin was absolutely wonderful with Lucky! He kept us updated throughout the day with pictures, and it was clear Lucky felt completely at home with him. When we picked Lucky up, we could see how happy and comfortable he had been. Gavin isn’t just a great dog sitter—he’s also such a kind and caring person. We’re so grateful for the love and attention he gave Lucky while we were out of town, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future.”

She updated us every day and sent us pictures and a video of Lexi playing! I know Lexi had lots of fun! I will definitely have Lexi stay with Rita next time we go on vacation! :)”

“FIRST TIME USING THEM ….. AND THEY WERE GREAT SITTERS ….WILL USE AGIAN …. Love that they kept us informed and updated of there stay 5stars all day long …. Love Thor and Red”
“We booked our hyper 1 year old Goldendoodle. Kimberly was a wonderful sitter. We were passing through the area on a cross country move and had plans to visit friends, tour projects and eat lunch. I made a last minute decision to book and Kimberly was accommodating. I knew when k dropped off my dog he was in good hands. Kimberly sent me photos during the stay. My dog was happy at pick up I can tell he had a good stay”
“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!”
“Christina is a very thoughtful sitter! She has a great set up. Extra dog crates, a gate before the door so no one runs out, covered couch she lets the dogs up on, and a good little yard. My dog had a blast playing with her and other dog she was watching. We were delayed in our travels and she was very flexible! Told me not to rush and sent a ton of pictures letting me know Lyra was having a good time. She even let me book last minute with a quick meet and greet the night before. Thanks Christina!”
“What an amazing peace of mind!! My dog came back happy and so well taken care of! Will be booking again!! Thank you so much for your love and care to animals!”
“Josie, her husband, and Paco took great care of my Pip while we were vacationing in ABQ. Having Pip go over to her house allowed us to get some hikes, bike rides, and brunches in without having to worry is our young, energetic dog was being destructive or bored at the Airbnb. Highly recommend, and will definitely request Josie again when we return.”
“Lauren and Devan were so great helping my nervous little dog get comfortable and feel at home on long days in a strange place. I felt she was safe around other dogs and was so glad that she got more playful and relaxed after being there for a short time”
“Daycare with James was awesome! My dog Addie was very comfortable at his house and I could tell she really enjoyed being around him. James was quick to respond to any of my questions and I will definitely be booking him for daycare again soon!”
“Charles was extremely professional and responsible and he took EXCELLENT care of my lab, Tamale, with the help of his dog, Shiso. He sent regular pictures of their walks, the dogs playing together in the yard together, cuddling for naps, and having meals and snacks- it was obvious she was in good hands. Tamale had a wonderful time, was thoroughly exhausted and most importantly, she was VERY well cared for. I felt so fortunate to find such a warm, wonderful home in my neighborhood with a kind human and his family to look after my girl while I worked and my husband was out of town. She already misses her new friends. Thanks again, Charles! We will absolutely be booking again.”
About: I have a true passion for caring for pets and always strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment for each one. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and respect for every pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s a playful dog or an independent cat, they always receive love, personalized care, and genuine companionship—because to me, they’re not just pets, they’re family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I carefully organize my time to ensure punctual feeding schedules, walks, cleaning, and quality time with each pet. I am committed to maintaining clear and consistent communication with pet owners and to following all care instructions closely. Responsibility and consistency are very important to me, and I always prioritize the well-being, safety, and peace of mind of the pets in my care. When I care for pets in my home or in their owner’s home, I carefully follow their usual routines so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure to maintain consistent schedules for feeding, walks, hygiene, and rest. I provide a clean, calm, and well-supervised environment at all times. I also pay close attention to their behavior and emotional needs, offering companionship, affection, and patience. I always respect the owners’ instructions and maintain clear communication so they feel at ease while they’re away.
“When I had Adam & Indy watch my dogs for the second time, my dogs and Indy were so happy to see eachother again like they missed eachother and one of my dogs even jumped on the couch to sit next to Adam to say hi. Clearly they were well taken care of and have new great friends! Definitely recommend Adam!!”
“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!”
“This was the first time I have left Horace with a sitter and I am so pleased how well it went. Celeste responds immediately to texts and sends photos of how the day is going. So appreciated. I would send Horace to Celeste’s for the day in a heartbeat!”
“Cindy was great with my 2 year old baby. I sent Sandia for my 12 hour shifts and Cindy was flexible with pick up and drop off times. I got lots of picture updates. Sandia loved playing in the backyard with Cindy’s other dogs. She was so at ease during drop-offs, giving me peace of mind that she felt safe in Cindy’s home. Thanks again :)”
“Mabel was very happy to be left with Onrae for a few hours, which isn't always the case with sitters. But dogs are a good judge of character, right? All went well and Onrae was an excellent communicator. We wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.”
“Peter took great care of my high energy black lab Birdie. Birdie and Peter's dog Mia hit it off right from the get go. Would not hesitate to leave Birdie with Peter anytime. Planning her next visit now.”
“Melinda was very interested in getting to know our dog. She asked a lot of questions about his behavior, his personality, his normal day, etc. She was very concerned about making our dog feel like he was as much at home as possible. Peso seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We would definitively recommend Melinda for dog sitting. She was quick to respond to messages, and she sent us a picture of Peso. We would use Melinda again if we are visiting Albuquerque in the future.”

“Thanks again for a great walk and for the work you've done that's getting her to improve more and more every time. I am very grateful for that!”
“Cassandra has been amazing! She clearly loves dogs and treats ours with so much care and affection. She’s reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile. We feel completely at ease knowing our dog is in such great hands. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“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)!”
“If you need assistance with your animal, Heaven is an awesome choice. My dog actually miss her when he thinks she should be there to take him for his walk. I believe it is wonderful the way she bonds with her human and animal clientele.”
“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.”
“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've been petsitting since 2012, including dogs, cats, exotic birds, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs. I am experienced with special needs animals, elderlies, and those recovering from surgery. I've completed over 100 volunteer hours walking shelter dogs. I am comfortable working with some behavioral challenges. Completed training: 2026 Fear Free Shelters program “Play Groups, Meet-and-Greets, and Dog Fight Response Training.” 2025 “Advanced Dog Walker Training" “Calming Canines Training" 2024 “Safe Dog Walker Training" I started volunteering at vet clinics in 2006, and I've been volunteering at spay/neuter events since 2016. Some of my photos are from those. Please note that I am not representing any organization. I work from home and I make my own schedule. I wake up before 6 am so I am available early. Helping out with pets is my favorite thing to do! Outside the home or your fenced yard, dogs will be on-leash and distanced from other animals and people. I do not mix animals from different homes.
“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!”
“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:)”
“Alexus is very professional, communicative, and accommodating. She has done a great job of caring for my senior pup with anxiety. Cannot recommend enough!”
“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: I lost my sixteen-year-old fur baby in October, 2018 and find myself missing that special energy only pets can bring. I have been caring for various pets for my friends and family for about 20 years and have done drop ins and overnight visits. I do have a full-time 8-5:30, Monday-Friday (and many Saturdays) job however, and am not available to provide constant care for pets. I do have more than enough time to devote myself to the love and care of your fur baby. In my home, in my life, dogs and cats are family and deserve the same love, care, and respect that human beings deserve. Perhaps more. While I have more experience with dogs I haven’t met a cat I couldn’t win over. Rest assured that if you place the care of your beloved pets in my hands they will be well loved while you are out of town. Your home will be cared for as well. I do have a “regular” 8 am to 5 pm job. My evenings and nights are free. Weekends are also more flexible for me when it comes to spending quality time with your baby. I am not able to provide constant care. I live in an apartment complex so I am more than happy to visit your fur baby in their own environment. I want to make sure your pets are as comfortable as possible so I’d prefer to maintain the schedule and comfort they’re used to.

“Put all your trust in Malcolm! My pup loves his visits from him! He goes above and beyond with his care and playtime. Takes lots of photos and gives plenty of updates. Follows all special care instructions to a T! Malcom’s availability is great and he flows with changes to the schedule! A huge help!”
“Hossanna is fantastic, and I highly recommend her. I had a health emergency and reached out via Rover, hoping for a miracle, and she showed up just a couple of hours later. Was able to help me walk my highly energetic dog that day, and the next. Very grateful!”
“Brooke is the absolute best! She is consistent, punctual, an excellent communicator, and our dog goes nuts when he sees her. I’ve utilized several dog walkers/sitters through Rover in the past but none are as dependable as Brooke.”
