“Maellen is the warmest, caring, and most attentive dog sitter we've ever had. She sent us daily updates with pictures and was very responsive anytime we had a question. We could tell our Toby was happy, safe and comfortable in Maellen's home. Not once did we worry about Toby's well being, safety or comfort and we were able to enjoy our time out of town. Toby got his daily walks, plenty of time with Maellen and we could tell that she took great care of Toby. We are looking forward to having Maellen watch Toby again. In fact, we have confirmed another booking with Maellen later in the year.”

“Thank you so much, Boo had a lovely time she wasn’t stressed at all when we picked her up . I loved all the update pictures. Really put my mind at ease.”

“Anne is such a sweet and down to earth person. No wonder Minnie was so comfortable there with her. Anne’s dog and mine got along so well and I know she treated Minnie like her own. Highly recommend.”

“Onrae had Oakley for the weekend and made she she ate and got her antibiotics! She’s the most picky eater but he got her to eat everyday and she came home happy. Thank you!”
About: I’ve dog sat for most of my life, I have a love for all dogs and deeply believe dogs are family and should be treated and cared for as such I currently work full time on the weekends so I am usually off on weekdays and would love some company cuddling on the couch or walks I have a fenced yard and almost a half acre to run around. I have two beagles and a little yorkie that will keep your pup company.
“Esmeralda and her family took very good care of our Spider. She sent us some photos and updates to stay connected which we really appreciate. She was also available with short notice and we would definitely let Spider stay with her again. When we arrived for pickup, Spider was relaxing in his bed in the living room, very calm and obviously very comfortable at Esmeralda's house. :) Excellent care”

“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...”

“Esperita was very good and very accommodating. we had to leave early at the last minute and Esperita took the dogs one day early without hesitation. She even changed the booking so all we had to do was accept which made it easy on us. She also took pictures of the dogs and wrote to us every day telling us what they did that day and how they were doing. We will definitely use Esperita again.”
“Josephine did a great job with Archie, I was truly impressed, she went above and beyond, her dog Paco is lovely and sweet, don’t hesitate to book!!”


“Debbie was amazing with our Rocky. Rocky is a baby “bear”, he is big and clumsy! But Debbie provided plenty of love, attention and patience. I really appreciated it. It gave me peace of mind. When I pick up Rocky, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!"”

“This was my first time leaving my two dogs overnight at a strangers house and I'm so glad it was with Marissa!! She both reassured the dogs, AND she also was reassuring to me - and that helped a lot. She sent me updates and photos and took really good care of my two dogs that were not at all used to staying somewhere other than my house. It felt to me like she got to know each dog personally, not just give them food and shelter for the night... I would certainly book with her again when the need arises!!”

“Mary was excellent, she treated Nico like he was her own I was sent pictures of him watching soccer with her on the couch and relaxing on the outside furniture. He was right at home I will be taking him back to her my next vacation thank you Mary for taking such great care of my Nico”

“My cats loved their stay so much they didn't want to come home! Kathryn was easy to deal with, good communication, and obviously loves cats. Highly recommended.”

“Emily and her family were absolutely wonderful with Mr. Elwood. She was incredibly communicative, providing daily photos and status updates that kept my mind at ease. When Mr. Elwood faced some minor challenges, Emily handled them with grace and expertise, ensuring he remained safe and happy throughout. I’m so grateful for their support during my business travels. Highly recommended!”

“Sofie was the best! From our first communications, to the met and greet, to the end of the stay, she was flexible and friendly. I had no reservations about leaving our dog with her. She sent pictures everyday with a little update that confirmed she knew our dogs habits. Would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again myself!”

“This is the second time Doug has watched our pups! He is incredibly reliable and flexible. We got stuck in another state for an extra day and he was able to keep them for us. Doug is the best!”

“Elena has seriously been an absolute LIFESAVER! Not only was she able to book a very last minute meet n’ greet for a weeks worth of drop-in visits, she was also exceptional in her communication. She truly went above and beyond to ensure my furbaby was well taken care of despite a very unexpected snowstorm throwing a major curveball in our original arrangement. Elena consistently put me at ease with her proactive response to worsening weather conditions, informative updates, and incredibly thoughtful accommodations. I cannot recommend her services enough and am definitely looking forward to working with her again!”


“Jana is very flexible. She agreed to watch over our cat with a short notice. I love how she gave us updates and photos throughout the time. I booked her 3 times since and will continue going with her. Highly recommended if you are looking for someone great who will play with & care about your babies.”

“Max followed the instructions, was communicative, and, though my cat didn’t seem to warm up too much, Wybie seems happy and healthy, which is all I hope for at the end of a trip.”


“Mira did an amazing job taking care of my cat Malcolm while I was away! She is so kind and really cared about Malcolm's routines. She provided detailed and thoughtful updates and photos for each visit. She was able to administer eye drops for my cat which really put my mind at ease! Thank you so much, Mira!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently care for two cats and a dog of my own. I’m very comfortable with daily routines, playtime, feeding, and giving pets lots of attention and love. I also frequently dog sit for friends when they’re out of town, so I understand how important it is to provide reliable, trustworthy care while you’re away. I’m currently a psychology doctoral student finishing my final year, which gives me a flexible schedule and extra time to dedicate to pet care. I love getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, so I’m excited to make some new furry friends while providing reliable, attentive care! I treat every pet like my own, with safety and trust as my top priorities. I’m very attentive to routines, behavior, and surroundings, whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home. I aim to create a calm, stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for, and I’m always happy to send updates so you know your pet is in good hands.

“My cat storm seemed at home right away with Tabitha. And I can tell he is doing OK afterwards because he did not pull all of his hair out which he does when stressed. He walked around like he owned the place which was lovely.”

“I am so grateful to have found Seneca! This was my first trip away from my two fur babies. Seneca was terrific and did a great job taking care of everything! I loved the pictures she sent me each day of my kitties ? and the updates! Thank you again Seneca for doing such a great job!”


“Brooke went above and beyond taking care of our babies. She communicated very well and we were very comfortable with how she cared for them. Will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you so much!”

“Brigit is a gem! She sent pictures and updates every time she stopped in. I’m always nervous leaving my babies and she definitely put my mind at ease. Will be requesting to book with her again for sure! Thank you, Brigit!”


“Patricia was absolutely fantastic with our cat, Alice! You can tell she loves animals. She went above and beyond with care, even putting birds on the tv for our cat while she was away. I highly recommend her as a sitter and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Svetlana was our first cat sitter ever and we are very happy we found her. She is very responsable and was flexible to change the schedule due weather conditions. She also helped to check the mail while we were gone beside feeding the cats. We will hire her again if there is an other opportunity.”

“This is my first time using this service. I didn’t know what to expect. I had reach out to others and either never heard back or they just didn’t explain the process clearly. Finally I found Candice. Candice explained everything from the beginning to the end. We had a meet and great with Candice. She is a very sweet and loving person. I feel like we struck gold with her. She stayed in communication with us the entire time she was sitting out dog. She sent us pictures and even went above and beyond. In the pictures we can tell our dog was happy and comfortable with Candice. We are so grateful for her. We definitely recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you Candice!!”

“Heaven did a great job taking care of my two cats! She did everything I asked of her and more. She was very gentle and interactive with them thus they liked her and they are very selective about who they’ll interact with. I would definitely request her again and highly recommend!”

“Maria was great with our new 9 week old puppy! We were afraid to leave her alone while we were away at work, but Maria came in mid-day to play with her during a couple drop-in visits last week. She would send me photos each day and ensured successful potty sessions. My little Pup Rey loved her! We would definitely request her again!”

“Esperita was great with our puppy Chloe. It was our first time leaving Chloe with someone but I felt good leaving her in good care. Esperita provided updates and pictures throughout the day which helped keep my worries at bay. Chloe had a great time and fun with her fur friends. Would absolutely use Esperita again!”
“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Kimberly is fantastic! She was very accommodating to my unique schedule at the hospital and always responds quickly. I also greatly appreciated how she gave me some tips to help with my puppy’s habit of marking. Highly recommend her for any needs/cares your doggo has.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, from Yorkies to German Shepherds. Providing the love and care to other dogs while you’re away is my priority! To give you the peace of mind your fur baby is both physically and mentally stimulated during our time together. I am very active, love going on hikes and finding new parks in the area! I am in the end of my surgical residency making my schedule relatively flexible. While I am unable to have a dog of my own full time, I can care and love for others in the mean time! While I do live in an apartment, there is a park with walking trails right across the street that I walk daily. Staying active is an essential part of my life!

“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!”

“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!”

“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!”


About: Caring, reliable, and experienced pet parent of a happy and lively 13-year-old male Papillon (retired champion show dog!). I have open availability in my schedule throughout the week. I would love to start taking care of new clients in Albuquerque. I especially love taking my furry friends for fun-filled long walks or having an impromptu photo shoot at your home to show off your pet. I'm comfortable with young, active pups and kittens as well as senior dogs and cats who require medication or other extra care for individual needs. I believe in creating a personalized experience for each animal, based on their preferences, activity level, and health. When I housesit, I am happy to include additional services beyond pet care, such as bringing in the mail and packages, watering plants, bringing the garbage and recycling cans around, and alternating lights to ensure it looks like someone is around while you are out of town. I have many years of experience walking dogs and pet-sitting overnight in my former hometown of Austin, TX, as well as in the Washington, DC area, with many highly satisfied repeat clients. I would be happy to have a meet and greet with you and your dog or cat (or rabbit or birds) to discuss more details! I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I have a flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day and on weekends and holidays. If you'd like me to provide some socialization for your small dog while I'm walking them, we can see if our pets get along first. I only care for one household's pets at a time. Let me know the pet rules for your home (if fur babies can sit on the bed or what else might be off limits to them). I am very careful to properly harness dogs when taking them outside. Your pet will never be left unattended while in my care.
“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.”

“Gabby took great care of my baby, Piper. Piper has a special case of “Velcro” going on and Gabby kept her happy best she could. Thanks again. PS. Got the ok to bring Piper back—always a good sign.”

“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!!”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”

“I have used Kalantha for over a year to let my dog out while I was working 13+ hour shifts. She has been 100% reliable and trustworthy. I feel totally comfortable letting her in my home and I know my dog enjoys spending time with her.”

“Candace is great to work with. I reached out for dog walking my two rescues. They have some quirks and she manages them well. I’m happy she’s available when I need her. I will use her service again.”

“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.”

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.
About: I love animals and have taken care of dogs and cats of many different kinds for 15 years. As an owner of both a dog (Beary) and a cat (Fufu), I understand the different needs of both. I’m very attentive to feeding schedules, mood changes, and exercise needs. What sets me apart: Full Overnight Availability: I have reliable support for my own pets at home, which allows me to stay at your house overnight and focus entirely on your pets without needing to leave. Professional Trust: I am a regular, trusted dog walker for my therapist and neighbors in the local area. Observation Skills: I closely monitor behavior and eating habits to ensure every pet is healthy and happy. Clean & Respectful: As a student, I am quiet and organized. I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I have a very structured and organized routine. Because I am taking mostly online courses, my schedule allows me plenty of time for drop-in or full time visits, and I have reliable support at home for my own pets, which gives me the freedom to stay overnight at your house without any distractions. I am punctual, dedicated, and stay highly communicative with regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. I truly believe pets are family, and I take their care seriously, especially when it comes to patience, routine, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also a regular dog walker for my therapist and several neighbors in my local area, where I am known for being reliable and safety focused. When I’m in your home, I provide a calm, steady presence. I follow your house rules and routines exactly as you like them, and I prioritize keeping a clean and safe environment for your fur babies. My goal is to give you genuine peace of mind while you're away.

About: I have been around dogs since birth, and began house sitting in others houses about 4 years ago. I have owned and dog sat large dog breeds, small breeds, and everything in between. I have raised my own puppies and taken care of them until they are also seniors. I understand how important it is to have a reliable sitter and want to give your fur baby the best possible care! I am a full time college student but only attend in person class for a couple hours, two days out of the week in the middle of the day. I do participate in some outdoor activities some nights of the week for small increments of time. Other than that I will spend all of my time with your animal! I only go to clients home, but I am completely comfortable staying over night. I will do anything you ask for your fur baby, and may add a couple of treats throughout the day:) ! I am also comfortable walking/running your dog, and even taking them out in public if you are comfortable.

“Maellen is the warmest, caring, and most attentive dog sitter we've ever had. She sent us daily updates with pictures and was very responsive anytime we had a question. We could tell our Toby was happy, safe and comfortable in Maellen's home. Not once did we worry about Toby's well being, safety or comfort and we were able to enjoy our time out of town. Toby got his daily walks, plenty of time with Maellen and we could tell that she took great care of Toby. We are looking forward to having Maellen watch Toby again. In fact, we have confirmed another booking with Maellen later in the year.”

“Onrae had Oakley for the weekend and made she she ate and got her antibiotics! She’s the most picky eater but he got her to eat everyday and she came home happy. Thank you!”

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...”

“Esperita was very good and very accommodating. we had to leave early at the last minute and Esperita took the dogs one day early without hesitation. She even changed the booking so all we had to do was accept which made it easy on us. She also took pictures of the dogs and wrote to us every day telling us what they did that day and how they were doing. We will definitely use Esperita again.”

“Debbie was amazing with our Rocky. Rocky is a baby “bear”, he is big and clumsy! But Debbie provided plenty of love, attention and patience. I really appreciated it. It gave me peace of mind. When I pick up Rocky, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!"”

“This was my first time leaving my two dogs overnight at a strangers house and I'm so glad it was with Marissa!! She both reassured the dogs, AND she also was reassuring to me - and that helped a lot. She sent me updates and photos and took really good care of my two dogs that were not at all used to staying somewhere other than my house. It felt to me like she got to know each dog personally, not just give them food and shelter for the night... I would certainly book with her again when the need arises!!”

“Mary was excellent, she treated Nico like he was her own I was sent pictures of him watching soccer with her on the couch and relaxing on the outside furniture. He was right at home I will be taking him back to her my next vacation thank you Mary for taking such great care of my Nico”

“My cats loved their stay so much they didn't want to come home! Kathryn was easy to deal with, good communication, and obviously loves cats. Highly recommended.”

“Emily and her family were absolutely wonderful with Mr. Elwood. She was incredibly communicative, providing daily photos and status updates that kept my mind at ease. When Mr. Elwood faced some minor challenges, Emily handled them with grace and expertise, ensuring he remained safe and happy throughout. I’m so grateful for their support during my business travels. Highly recommended!”

“Sofie was the best! From our first communications, to the met and greet, to the end of the stay, she was flexible and friendly. I had no reservations about leaving our dog with her. She sent pictures everyday with a little update that confirmed she knew our dogs habits. Would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again myself!”

“This is the second time Doug has watched our pups! He is incredibly reliable and flexible. We got stuck in another state for an extra day and he was able to keep them for us. Doug is the best!”

“We could not be more grateful to have found Marlena for our first River experience! Especially on a last minute notice! Leaving our doggos with someone new is always a bit stressful, but she instantly won them (& us) over & treated our dogs like her own. Throughout the stay (overnight plus additional hours), Marlena was incredibly sincere & honest with us about how our dogs were doing. She provided detailed updates, photos & videos, we so appreciated her open communication. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such a safe, capable, & loving hands. Our dogs just loved her so much. We will absolutely be booking with Marlena again!”

“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!”

“It is so nice to be able to be away from our boy and know that he is being well-taken care of. We are blessed to have Cecilia and Dan love and care for our boy. They are wonderful!!!”

“Jessie took great care of Dublin. It was obvious he had a really fun time while he was there. It was comforting to know he was well taken care of while we were away.”

“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!”
