“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.”
“Jamie and Patrick are trustworthy and reliable! They were both able to take on a last minute request, and I am so grateful for finding someone I can trust to take care of my dog in Albuquerque!”
“Patricia is lovely. My dogs were well taken care of, and enjoyed being able to play with Patricia's little dog, Sophie, and another (small dog) client of Patricia's. I received pictures each morning of my travels, and Patricia communicated with me. Her home and yard are well kept, and provide a comfortable and safe environment for the pets. Having Patricia as my dogs' sitter took so much stress and anxiety of my shoulders while traveling. I definitely plan to use Patricia's sitter services when i travel in the future!”
“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.”
“Leslie & James takes great care of my standard poodle Zulu when I travel with updates of photos and videos. They are very friendly, courteous and accommodating if I have to change my pick ups if I’m delayed at the airport, etc.”
“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.”
“Rebecca was amazing. She really cares for her 4 legged clients. My little guy was loved on and attended to in all sorts of ways. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend her. Best experience ever!”
“Pepper had a great time with Laura's family and their pup crew! She was so well cared for, got to take hikes and got all kinds of fun doggy play time. I loved all of the pictures and videos to ease my mind while I was away. I'm grateful to have found a sitter in the area we can count on :)”
“Pat was just fantastic. So accommodating! I was very (very) last minute when asking her to watch Levy, my Borzoi, overnight, and she took her in with no problem. She was very sweet and professional. She had no problems with feeding Levy's raw diet, and thankfully didnt leave any kibble out for my sneaky pup to get into. I've been weary with leaving Lev with dog sitters since she would come back sick, but she's been her normal self. :) I also was sent pictures and videos which I greatly appreciated. So happy to have found Pat and am 100% confident that Levy will stay her in the future.”
“Great care provided by Melissa! She was kind and welcoming before my pup's stay, sent tons of pictures during his visit, and he came home happy and exhausted (exactly what I wanted!) Thank you so much for a great stay Melissa!!”
“Celine was great with our dog Ellie. We were updated daily on how she was doing along with pictures! We will book Celine again in the future. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Josh was very positive in our dealings and made both our dog Oreo and ourselves extremely confortable. We are looking forward to more bookings with Josh in the future.”
“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!!”
“Lauren was great! As someone with hyper dogs, I super happy that Lauren was able to take them to the dog park and on walks to get their zoomies out. I could tell my pups felt right at home with her. 10/10”
“Thomas and Matt were available when I needed someone to take care of my dog for the weekend, she was happy to see them and they did a good job, my nervous dog was treated love and care while adjusting to their nice home and I felt comfortable while I was away that she would be in good hands”
“Shell is now Aunty Shell! I cannot recommend her enough for your fur babies and I know it was a higher power that connected us because I needed someone like her I could count on and know that my baby is safe while I’m away. She takes that extra step to make sure each doggy has its needs met from its personality to medication’s. She has it down to a science and you can tell she does it from the love of her heart, me and Alfie already love you Aunty Shell!”

“Marcus was amazing with our 3 dogs. We have a 90lbs German Shepard, 30lb medium dog and a small 15lb dog and he handled each so well. He is friendly, kind and very knowledgable. He treats our animals as if they were his own and they loved 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!!”
“It was a pleasure working with Amanda. She was here when she said she would be. Very prompt which was important due to the fact that our cat Speedy needs his meds at the same time each day. She cleaned up after feedings of wet food and sent pix of our boys, which was really nice to receive. I would recommend Amanda to friends and family. Thank you Amanda! ;o)”
“Brittany took excellent care of our two cats while we were away! We received updates and photos every day when she checked in and she also did some extra house watching things for us as well like bringing in our mail and trash cans. She definitely cared for our cats like we would and we were really able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our babies! We will definitely be using her again :)”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I have experience with both energetic dogs and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that means long walks, playtime, or a slower pace with extra attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing plenty of affection, supervision, fresh water, exercise, and updates while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer oral medications if needed, reinforce basic training routines, and accommodate any special instructions so your pet receives the care they’re used to at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and sitting while maintaining a reliable routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by treating every pet like my own. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, provide a clean environment, and make sure they receive attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel secure while you’re away.
About: from grumpy do-nothing cats, to adventurous outdoor sight seekers, i’ve owned and cared for all types of cats. I’m willing to meet your cat where they are, whether that’s hanging out on opposite sides of the room, to hiking around together. Don’t tell the dogs this, but cats own my heart and i’ll probably be more fond of your grumpy buddy than any man’s best friend.
“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 :)”
“Joel came each day at the scheduled time. Everything was in order when I returned and I enjoyed my vacation with peace of mind that Joel was taking good care of my cats.”
About: I have experience working with an wide range of animals. Dogs, cats, ferrets, and goats. I treat every pet like family, providing patient, attentive care tailored to their personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and animals who need extra patience, consistency, and love. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I have a full-time 8–5 job, but I make time before and after work for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. My evenings and weekends give me dedicated time to provide loving, dependable care for your pets. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I follow feeding, medication, potty, walking, and bedtime instructions carefully, while giving plenty of affection, playtime, and individual attention. I want every pet to feel relaxed, loved, and at home while their person is away.
“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: 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.
“Sarah did a great job with taking care of my pets. She followed all the instructions and really cared for them. She is dependable and very caring. So glad she is a rover for me and my pets!”
“Lucy stopped by once a day, gave my cats snacks, and love. She sent regular photo updates, which I really appreciated. When I got home, everything was in order and the cats seemed happy and cared for. I’d recommend Lucy and would book again!”
About: I love meeting new animals, and keeping up with the ones I’ve met. My top priority is the well-being of your pets and your home. I am here to help. I am fortunate enough to be semi-nomadic, with a very flexible living situation. I can go anywhere within reason, with enough notice. I love animals, and I love exploring. I follow any instructions or guidelines set out by the pet owner. I also employ common sense. If an animal needs space, they get space. If an animal wants to come along with me, they can- following the pet owner’s rules.
About: My name is Celaya, and I have a strong passion for animals, especially dogs. I have over four years of experience in the pet care industry, working with a wide variety of dog breeds and sizes. My background includes feeding and administering medication when needed, as well as providing regular walks and exercise. I am skilled in reading dog behavior and body language, allowing me to ensure each dog's safety, comfort, and well-being. I take pride in delivering reliable, compassionate care and building trust with both pets and their owners. I recently moved back to New Mexico and am currently looking for work, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I enjoy making sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and the care they need. I’m comfortable making pet care a consistent part of my week and treating each pet like my own. When caring for pets in my home or at the client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and happy. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving any medications if needed, taking them on regular walks, and providing plenty of playtime and attention. I always watch for signs of stress or discomfort and make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a quick visit or overnight stay, I treat every pet like they’re my own.
“Our kitties were happy and well cared for with Brenna. One of our kitties has special needs and requires quite a bit of medication, but he was happy and healthy when we returned from having Brenna care for him.”

“My first time here on Rover and we had a great experience. Thank you so much! I’m so happy I found Leslie & James. The dogs were in great hands and I felt reassured they will be cared for from the get go.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of the boys while we were in Albuquerque for the day. I wish you were closer so we had a reliable sitter in Denver. The pictures helped us through out the day know that the boys were safe and having fun too! Look us up if you're ever in Colorado. Ve”
“Toast had the best day at daycare with Kathy and the crew! She took the time to make my slow to warm up pup feel right at home. I really appreciated the pupdates thought out the day and the fact she got to go out on a hike (a favorite activity of hers). Would definitely recommend and Toast can’t wait for her next adventure day!”
“Julia is a sweetheart! She took us in last minute and was super flexible with our drop off. She made sure to send me updates and pictures through the day. I highly recommend booking with her!!”
“Tracy was incredibly kind and caring with our fur baby, she was very responsive and sent lots of pictures during her stay. Also super flexible! Our pup loved Tracy!”
“Celine was great with our Belgian Malinois for a daycare visit. She is calm, organized, and quick to respond to questions. Jana immediately seemed to feel comfortable with her and we will definitely book with her again.”
“We are delighted with the care Peter provided Oliver. Oliver loved going to doggie daycare at Peter’s, in particular all of the outings he went on. We will definitely call on Peter to watch Oliver in the future. Thank you.”
“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!”
“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 lived with at least 2 dogs in my household for the past 20 years. Providing them with the opportunities to live fulfilling and healthy lives has been my priority. Although I am their caregiver, I consider them also to be my teachers. Learning how to communicate with them is the best way to ensure they are happy and calm, and that they feel safe. I am currently retired and spend quite a bit of time at the dog park. My dog and I are mostly inseparable. I take him with me to run errands when I can. It isn't always practical and so he minds the house when I am away. Barney is my only companion, and, even though I'm kind of a loner, Barney is NOT. He is extremely friendly and social and craves the company of other dog;, that factors into my decision to care for other dogs in my home. Barney will help me keep your dog comfortable and happy while in our care. We have a fenced back yard (4 foot). The surrounding properties have no dogs at this time. If your dog can jump a 4 foot fence, this may not be the safest home for him or her.
“I contacted Shell at the last minute to pick up and drop off my dog. She agreed quickly, understood exactly what I needed, and most importantly, took excellent care of my little one. She was perfect! I’m so grateful to her for helping me. I will be contacting Shell first the next time I need a pet sitter. Thanks, Shell! Your kindness was greatly appreciated!”
“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.”
About: I'm an active foster with Animal Humane and a lifelong dog owner. Last year I lost my soul dog, and while nothing replaces that bond, I've found real meaning in opening my home to dogs who need extra care and patience — through fostering, and now through caring for yours. I know how to read a dog's comfort level, build trust quickly, and adjust to what each individual dog needs, whether that's an active play schedule or a calm, steady routine. Your dog will be loved and looked after like family. I am currently on Sabbatical, and can't wait to fill my down time with being present with your pup(s)! We can have lots of cuddles and walks! I have a fenced yard and a lovely walkable neighborhood! I have a senior dog, Highway that is very welcoming to other dogs that visit!
“Once again Celio did a great job watching one of my dogs. I just adopted Paco, who had surgery and I needed help with him after surgery due to work demands. Celio took such good care of him - gave him his meds, made sure his stitches looked ok, and really just treated him like his own dog AND sent me many pictures. Celio is awesome!”

“Marcus is truly an exceptional dog walker and person! He took great care of our dog and was especially observant and careful on hot days—he came very early in the morning and always took care to make sure she was ok. He left great, detailed reviews and was always happy to help with any concerns—he truly goes above and beyond! Our dog loves him and we look forward to working with Marcus whenever possible!”
“Bill did a wonderful job walking Callie every day. She usually doesn’t just go off with somebody new that she’s never met. But she really liked Bill from the start. The whole week went very well. Bill is a very kind man with a warm heart toward animals. I will definitely use him again when I need somebody to watch Callie or to walk her.”
About: My name is Julia! I’m new to Rover but not new to dog sitting! I have a dog named Dixie. Dixie is a Miniature Australian Shepherd and loves to play! We love to do everything together including car rides, going to the park, stores, walks, games, and enrichment activities! I have raised dogs my whole life but now I have Dixie. I am a huge worrier about leaving my dog with someone so I understand how important it is to have a safe place for your dog while you work or have vacations and that’s what I’m here for! I think it’s important to give dogs their best life possible 🤍 All dogs must be up-to-date on their flea and heartworm medicine. For Daycare: I currently work full time. I am off on Tuesdays so I can take some bookings on Tuesdays. I am pretty open on the weekends. When I go out, I bring Dixie everywhere with me, so I can bring yours too! For Boarding: I can take dogs for boarding, however on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays your dog would have to be crated for about 3-4 hours in the afternoon since no one will be home. Saturday and Sunday boarding I would be home all day! I have a fenced yard with certain areas blocked off that Dixie or other dogs should not go into. My gate is locked. I walk Dixie once or twice a day and play outside with her. I hangout inside when it’s hot out and play inside the house! I always make sure there is water and of course plenty of treats available!
“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!”
“Greg had worked with my dog a year and a half ago, and it was a very good experience. Sadly, that dog passed away but now I have a new dog and I reached out to Greg to see if he could help me get Scooby some extra exercise. He jumped right back in and is helping me and Scooby get off to a good start from the shelter! Greg is great with dogs, and very respectful when it comes to scheduling and communication”
About: A little about me: I’ve had a dog by my side every day since I was six years old — dogs are an integral part of my life, not just something I do on the side. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of every size, age, and temperament, from tiny lap dogs to a 90-pound Labrador, and from bouncy puppies to dogs in their older years. Experience: My deepest experience is with senior and special-needs dogs. My Labrador had a series of health challenges, including three separate leg surgeries. I nursed him through every recovery, which meant walking him with a support sling until he was back on his feet. When he was later diagnosed with cancer, I cared for him through hospice at home — giving his daily medications and keeping him comfortable and loved right to the end. So if your older dog needs medication, a little mobility help, or just extra patience and gentleness, that’s something I genuinely know how to do. I’m just as comfortable with high-energy dogs. That same Labrador was a handful in his younger years, so I know what it takes to keep a strong, active dog happy and well-exercised. I also love puppies and understand the patience and consistency they need. I’m happy to walk more than one dog at a time, and I have experience with leash-reactive dogs — I know how to keep walks calm, controlled, and low-stress for a dog who needs a little extra management. Right now I share my home with two girls — a 15-year-old Chihuahua mix and a 2-year-old Cairn Terrier — so both ends of the age spectrum are part of my daily routine. Before them I’ve cared for several terriers and a Border Collie mix, among others. I walk my own dogs every single day and I’ll keep yours on a good routine too. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends who were thrilled with the care I provided — beyond looking after their dogs, I kept their homes tidy, watered plants, and brought in mail, treating each home with the same respect I’d give my own. Services: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting: • Dog walking — I keep dogs safely leashed and give them a proper outing with a good sniff, steady exercise, and a potty break, adjusting the length and pace sensibly for the weather. • Drop-in visits — I come to your home to feed, refresh water, handle potty breaks, play, and give plenty of affection, plus tidy up any little messes before I head out. • House sitting — I stay overnight in your home and keep your dog’s whole world running on schedule (feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and steady company) while also looking after your place by keeping it tidy, bringing in the mail, and watering plants. Availability: I work from home and set my own hours, so I’m around for your dog far more than the average sitter — and I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Pet care is the center of my day, not an afterthought, which means real time and attention whether it’s a midday walk, an unhurried drop-in, or being present in your home throughout the day on an overnight stay. The only exception is the occasional family commitment, which I always know about well in advance, so I can be upfront about my availability every single time. Peace of mind: Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’m always happy to send photo and video updates so you can see your pup having a good time, and I’ll check in as often as you’d like while you’re away. And should anything ever go wrong, I’m able to drive your dog to the vet in an emergency — so you can travel with real peace of mind. Pet care is the center of my daily routine. I work from home, my schedule is very open and flexible, so I can build my day around your dog's needs rather than squeezing them in. The only exception is the occasional family commitment I schedule around, and because those are always planned well in advance, I'll always know my availability far ahead of time and can be upfront with you about it. To give you a sense of how I run a day: my own dogs eat at 8am and 6pm, get a 20–40 minute walk in the evening, and I stay attentive throughout the day to when they need to go out. My younger dog gets dedicated playtime with her toys, and my senior girl gets her medication right on schedule every other day. I keep that same consistency and attention for any dog in my care — sticking to your dog's normal feeding, walking, medication, and potty routine so their world stays steady while you're away. When I care for your dog in your home, safety comes first. I keep all doors and gates closed and latched, and I'm constantly aware of where your dog is — especially any time I'm heading in or out, so there's no chance of an escape. I follow whatever house rules and routines you set. I also treat your home with the same respect I give my own. When I dog-sat for family and friends, I kept their house tidy, watered their plants, and brought in mail while they were away. I will leave your home just as you left it, keep you updated with photos while you're gone, and communicate quickly about anything that comes up. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a house in good order.
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!)
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs and have plenty of experience taking care of both! From taking walks, feeding, bathing and light grooming, I am no stranger to the nitty gritty! Especially when it comes to paying close attention and giving proper care to each pet! Currently I have a 3 legged cat named Frodo who enjoys going on trail walks and hikes. So I’m definitely open to unconventional and adaptive approaches to exercise/feeding/grooming! I hope to lend a hand in caring for your fluffy friend! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time during the week to make stop in visits and go for walks! As well as make time for your pets on the days I do work too. Using a leash on walks, going to fenced in spaces to play and making sure theres water ready and available during these times :) Making accommodations for each pet is important to me!

About: In college I was a house and pet sitter. I have had pets since I was in elementary school and am now a senior. I currently have three dogs of my own. I’m emotionally intelligent and good to work with. I work a half day as an Occupational Therapist educator in Wednesdays and as an OT practitioner on Fridays. I would be available in the afternoons on these days. I will not take care of pets in my home but am happy to come to yours to care for, walk, pet and feed your fur babies.
About: Hello, my name is Leevi. Since I was young, I have always been the one taking care of the family pets. I love all animals, and taking care of them. I have leashed and behaviorally trained multiple dogs for friends and family, as well as served as the designated animal watcher for both cats and dogs for friends and family. I have also raised multiple jumping spiders and lizards. I care about the needs of all animals; seeing them happy makes me happy. I work full-time from 5:00 p.m. to midnight, with Wednesdays and Thursdays off. Despite my evening work schedule, I maintain an active lifestyle and enjoy staying productive throughout the day. As soon as I wake up, I am usually on the move, whether I am exercising, running errands, handling personal responsibilities, or spending time outdoors. I value making the most of my mornings and early afternoons before beginning my shift. I will care for your fur baby with the same patience, attention, and affection I have always given my own pets—as a valued member of the family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, and I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate care that helps them feel safe and comfortable while you are away. I have hands-on experience training and caring for several of my family’s dogs. My experience includes leash training, reinforcing positive behaviors, administering oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing regular walks and playtime. I am comfortable following specific care instructions and adapting to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and daily routine. I am also attentive to the ways dogs communicate their needs. Whether a dog is feeling stressed, hungry, excited, tired, overheated, or simply in need of reassurance, I recognize the importance of observing their body language and behavior closely. I prioritize safe walks, hydration, a calm environment, and plenty of positive interaction to ensure each dog receives the care and attention they deserve.
About: Hi, I’m Taylor! I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages for family and friends over the years. I currently have a six year old cat that requires special care and attention, and I regularly take care of her senior cousin who requires daily shots. I am currently working on going back to school, so my schedule is pretty open right now to provide care for your little one. :) In my client’s home, I connect with the client to learn their routine. I take notes and ask questions to ensure I provide the care the client and pet is expecting from me. If the client desires, I’m happy to send pictures and updates during my stay!

I have a little dog park at my apartment, as well as plenty of space to walk the dogs around my building. I also offer to take care of your animals at your home if that’s what you prefer.

“Jamie and Patrick are trustworthy and reliable! They were both able to take on a last minute request, and I am so grateful for finding someone I can trust to take care of my dog in Albuquerque!”
“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.”
“Leslie & James takes great care of my standard poodle Zulu when I travel with updates of photos and videos. They are very friendly, courteous and accommodating if I have to change my pick ups if I’m delayed at the airport, etc.”
“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.”
“Pepper had a great time with Laura's family and their pup crew! She was so well cared for, got to take hikes and got all kinds of fun doggy play time. I loved all of the pictures and videos to ease my mind while I was away. I'm grateful to have found a sitter in the area we can count on :)”
“Great care provided by Melissa! She was kind and welcoming before my pup's stay, sent tons of pictures during his visit, and he came home happy and exhausted (exactly what I wanted!) Thank you so much for a great stay Melissa!!”
“Celine was great with our dog Ellie. We were updated daily on how she was doing along with pictures! We will book Celine again in the future. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Josh was very positive in our dealings and made both our dog Oreo and ourselves extremely confortable. We are looking forward to more bookings with Josh in the future.”
“Lauren was great! As someone with hyper dogs, I super happy that Lauren was able to take them to the dog park and on walks to get their zoomies out. I could tell my pups felt right at home with her. 10/10”
“Thomas and Matt were available when I needed someone to take care of my dog for the weekend, she was happy to see them and they did a good job, my nervous dog was treated love and care while adjusting to their nice home and I felt comfortable while I was away that she would be in good hands”
“Shell is now Aunty Shell! I cannot recommend her enough for your fur babies and I know it was a higher power that connected us because I needed someone like her I could count on and know that my baby is safe while I’m away. She takes that extra step to make sure each doggy has its needs met from its personality to medication’s. She has it down to a science and you can tell she does it from the love of her heart, me and Alfie already love you Aunty Shell!”
“Brandi was an amazing choice when boarding Ace who hadn’t had a lot of time outside of the house. Ace loved her dog Aries and her kids as well! The kids didn’t want Ace to leave and loved on him the whole time, which made me so happy. She also has a lot of experience and taught him a couple new tricks while I was gone. She went above and beyond to learn about Ace and even had him sleep in a bigger crate than the one I brought, to ensure he was happy. Her whole family is the sweetest and I can’t wait to book with her again!!!”
About: We've owned dogs and cats ourselves over the years but don't currently have our own fur babies. We've been travelling the country doing pet sitting and have LOVED it! We walk through the dog park across the street just to soak up some of that pure positive energy. We'd love to host your fur baby (ies) and give them tons of love and pets. I work from home and my husband is retired, so they will not lack for attention. We live in a spacious condo, so they need to give enough warning to be taken outside, but we're across the street from the dog park and only blocks from the Bosque, so plenty of places to play and walk here. I work from home and have plenty of breaks. My husband is retired. We have tons of time to shower your delightful creatures with love and attention. We walk every day, so easy to take a dog along. It's easy to fit pets into our routine, and it brings us much joy to have creatures to shower with affection. We live in a spacious condo in a secure building. We have plenty of space and light. Dogs would need to give us enough warning to take the elevator downstairs. We live right by a beautiful dog park, another city park, and the Bosque.
“Benjamin was so wonderful! He was super responsive and stayed in communication with us while we were away. Our younger dog Kewpie stayed with him while we were out of town for a couple days- we were anxious about leaving Kewpie for the first time but Benjamin reassured us, sent us many cute photos, and we felt secure knowing our lil guy was in capable hands. Benjamin also made drop off and pick up easy and swift. It was altogether a great experience and we will definitely be reaching back out to Benjamin when we are in need of future dog care.”
“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!”
“Kristle was communicative and flexible when we made a booking request for a holiday period. We appreciated that she took the time to do a meet and greet to make sure our dog would be a good fit in her household. Our dog looked happy and well loved during her stay - she even got her a gift! We really appreciated Kristle and would book with her again.”
