“Maellen took wonderful care of our pup. She kept us updated every with pictures and even videos, accommodated all of Chula's needs, and played with her and took her for walks. We couldn't have asked for a better or more understanding person to take care of Chula.”
“My pup had a great time with Josie, her husband and especially their dog Paco. I got daily pictures and updates so that I never had to worry 🥰 Our dog needs daily medicine and they had no problem making sure she got it, they were even able to get around her pill defenses by putting it in cream cheese (a new trick I'm definitely adopting)! I was especially happy to hear how well our dogs got along and that lots of play and tug of war sessions were had 😄 Pepper was treated like family and we'll absolutely rebook next time we have to go away.”
“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!!!”
“Lisa was an amazing cat sitter! She was incredibly sweet and took wonderful care of our cat, Woody. He has never been away from home before, and I was really nervous — but both Lisa and her dog, Gullu, were so gentle and comforting with him. I was genuinely surprised by how relaxed and at ease he seemed around them. Lisa sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was very responsive whenever we had questions and was super flexible with our schedule. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her!”
“Bobbi was she very helpful in a short notice. My first time her. She was sweet and kind to my baby and Bonni treated her like a princess.100% would recommend her again”
“Jamie and Patrick were great with our dog while we were out of town. From the moment we met them we knew she would be well cared for and have plenty of playtime and attention. Jamie was great with communication and kept us updated with how she was doing and sent plenty of pictures as well. We will absolutely be booking with them again when the time comes.”
“Liz was absolutely amazing with Muppet! Great communication and flexibility. She sent us daily messages with updates about Muppet's day, and lots of pictures. Liz was very professional, friendly, and loving with Muppet. Thank you so much, Liz!”
“Rosalia was amazing! She kept me updated all day with messages & tons of cute pictures. My dog looked happy and loved all the cuddles given to her. Her dog Kiki was such a good girl too, she didn't mind sharing the attention. If I lived in Albuquerque, I'd totally book Rosalia everytime!”
“Brandi took great care of Mika while I was away. Communication was clear and consistent, and I especially loved receiving picture updates they were my favorite part and gave me peace of mind knowing Mika was happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Brandi to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“This was Sasha's second stay with Pat and we love her! We knew Sasha was in good hands once again. We especially love the photos she sent us of Sasha via DogVacay with her new little friends.”

“My dog and I met Cindy and her dog before we boarded with her for the first time. It was apparent right away that she was capable of providing a good, caring home environment for my dog. I felt very comfortabke knowing he would be in the best place away from home. My 12 year old dog takes daily meds that were adminustered properly. He ate his meals,was abke to go into the yard and enjoyed her glass front door to look out.

“Jessica was amazing! Every visit she spent quite a bit of time with Archer and sent 1-2 pictures each day, sometimes showing him eating and sometimes showing him getting cuddles. They clearly got along well, and he seemed happy and healthy when we returned. Jessica is quick to respond to texts, and even checked in with us on the last day to make sure we'd get back on time and Archer would be okay.”

“Lauren is super fantastic and conscientious of my dogs needs and my worries. Roja is ecstatic when I drop her off and I feel that she is safe and loved. Lauren is reliable and professional and kind”
“In all my years of using dog sitters, no one has come close to Peter in terms of the care and love my dog received from him. Peter sent the best pictures throughout the day, and I was jealous of how much fun they were having. , He really did treat Bug like his own dog. I think my dog almost likes him better than me.”
“Lisa was absolutely lovely and my shy little dog was instantly comfortable with her. Lisa is very responsive given that I had a last-minute need for doggy daycare on an on a weekend day and she got back to me very quickly which I was grateful for. She has a kind, gentle demeanor, and from the videos she sent me, I got to see her adorable little poodle socializing with my pup. Maisie, my girl, clearly enjoyed it because het tail was wagging madly when they were together in the pictures and video. I’m so glad to have found Lisa and know that there’s someone really good in the New Rochelle Mamaroneck area”
“Highly recommend! First time using a dog sitter and Shayna was perfect for my dog. Communication was great and I received updates/photos of my dog throughout the day. Shayna made me feel at ease knowing my dog would be in great care. I would request Shayna again for future doggy day care. Thank you Shayna!”
About: Welcome to personalized care for your beloved furry friends! As a dedicated dog sitter (or cats,bunny,guinea pigs, birds, you name it!) I offer more than just sitting; I provide a tail-wagging experience filled with love, attention, and playful adventures. With a keen eye for each pup's needs and a passion for creating a safe and joyful environment. I'll ensure your dog feels right at home when you can't be there. Let's make their time away from home an unforgettable tail-wagging adventure! Jumping into experience and home life: I have taken care of pets, dogs specifically, since I was 9 years old. I am currently a stay at home mommy to my son (3 years old) and to our 3 bundles of joy. I love animals so much. They are more than just a pet or an animal, they are family. I will take care of yours with soft and gentle arms, as if they were my own. I do not professionally train, although both of my dogs are very good at what I have taught, (tricks and such). I also have no problems administering medications. I want to provide you a stress free getaway while know your babies are safe and sound. I will always send daily photos and/or videos of how your babies are adjusting to their stay. Our household is me, my fiance, our son and our three dogs. All of which will care for your babies just as much. I love that Rover allows us to provide personable stays to allow 1x1 tailored time with your pet that eases a lot of stress for everyone. I own an at home dog grooming kit which includes a dog vacuum that combs them while taking out the excess fur. Let me know if you need any deshedding services! My availability is totally available everyday! I work from home so I’m here on call for sure! If you are in need of drop-in visits, my fiance does come along for meet and greets and occasional visits as well. In both my home and my client's homes, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for pets. This includes maintaining a consistent feeding and exercise schedule tailored to each pets needs. I ensure plenty of playtime and mental stimulation through interactive toys and games. Additionally, I maintain cleanliness by regularly cleaning feeding areas, litter boxes, and any pet messes promptly. Above all, I provide affectionate companionship and attentive care to make sure pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.
“Kind, patient, helpful, friendly, professional… Those are just some of the words I would use to describe Holly and Robert. I’m very thankful for their help with my standard poodle.”
“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.”
“Oh how grateful we are to Jody's excellent and sensitive care and support! Our pup had started to have so much anxiety and we were feeling desperate about what to do! Jody is sweet, attentive and caring. You know you've found the right person when your dog runs up to greet her and is so happy to be with her. Jody is the one!”

“Melissa and her sweet family took such great care of my high energy dog. Not only did she send a ton of adorable pictures of the pack exercising & snuggling, but from the moment she greeted my dog, I could tell she was in good hands. I definitely will be using her services again, my dog came home super tired and looked so happy throughout the day! Thank you Melissa!”

About: I love dogs so much and have had at least one for my whole life (big and small)! Currently I’m a college student and I wanna help out all the puppies while I can’t have my own! I volunteered at Animal Humane NM and completed their dog walking & dog behavior courses so I am absolutely equipped to handle your dog(s)! I’m a student right now so my schedule depends on my classes! This semester I only have classes on Tues & Thurs so I’m available any other days! I’m super flexible and can accommodate any of your dogs needs as long as I learn your routine! I know how to walk, feed, give treats, crate, and give attention to your dog!
About: I have taken care of many rescues and have housed many dogs and cats. I have always been the go to when it comes to watching people’s pets! I also enjoy long walks to the park! I am currently on break from school, and I only work part time in my day job! I am free in the mornings and at nights to assist with animal care! I can stay all day on the weekends and come see them for an early morning walk and be back by 4pm for another walk and some cuddles! I have three senior dogs! They all have arthritis and are very old so I’m not able to take them out for long walks, but I do push them in a wagon so they can get fresh air! One of my senior citizens is blind and deaf so having another dog around him might spook him, but I can watch the home and pet for you!😆❤️

About: I have past experience in administering medicine including insulin and pills, as well as cleaning litter boxes, picking up dog poop, and feeding bearded dragons. I'm a college student working at a restaurant, but I am available throughout the day between school and work, and at nights. Overall pet sitting fits into my schedule just as well as any average person. I have a cat in my home who is vaccinated and well cared for, so if a pet is coming to my home it must be OK around cats, my cat is also used to dogs and other animals, although I would prefer to watch animals at their house. I care for them by feeding them according to their schedule, always providing fresh water, and taking them on any necessary walks, or runs, and of course cleaning up the poop or puke that occurs.

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of a lot of furry friends. I recently moved to the city and i miss their faces. I have walked bathed and fed pets since I could walk! Let me help you take care of your bestfriends! I’m currently attending college and wanted a fun little side job. I take all my courses online therefore, other than planned appointments or meetings my schedule is very flexible to work with. I currently have two cats and a dog. Algodón Sal is my older adult cat, he’s definitely a mommas boy. Luna is a young adult long haired cat, she is beautiful. If the weather is good, I let them roam around freely in my backyard, they love hiding in the plants. Lastly, technically Benny is not my dog-he is my brothers-but i consistently take him on walks around the neighborhood or to the park. He’s very high energy so we usually do high intensity activities like fetch and running. Benny hurt his paw recently (nothing too serious) and I have been letting him rest with a couple days of therapy each week to get him back on his four little feet.

About: Hi! My name is Alex, and I've been working as a veterinary technician for over six years. Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I love providing pets with a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while their families are away. Because of my veterinary background, I'm experienced caring for pets with medical needs, including administering oral and topical medications, insulin and other injections, subcutaneous fluid therapy, and basic wound care when appropriate. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a senior needing a little extra attention, or one with special medical needs, you can feel confident they'll receive knowledgeable and compassionate care. In addition to my veterinary experience, I hold a Master's in Business Administration with a concentration in Healthcare, giving me a strong appreciation for communication, organization, and dependable client service. I'll treat your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout their stay. For boarding, I ask that dogs are either kennel trained or non-destructive when unsupervised. I have two large crates available in my home, so you don't need to provide one unless your dog is more comfortable with their own. My schedule also allows for flexibility—while I work as a veterinary technician 2–3 days each week, my husband works from home several days a week with an office just minutes from our home, allowing us to accommodate dogs that may need more frequent potty breaks. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and providing them with the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own pets! Pet care is already a central part of my daily life. I work 2–3 days each week as a veterinary technician, so caring for animals is both my career and my passion. On my days off, I'm home caring for my own pets, fostering animals in need when available, and providing attentive care for boarding and daycare pets. My schedule is intentionally kept flexible, and my husband works from home several days a week with an office just minutes from our house, allowing us to accommodate pets that need more frequent potty breaks or extra attention. Whether it's playtime, enrichment, medication administration, or simply providing a calm and loving environment, I make sure every pet in my care receives the individualized attention they deserve. If your dog is staying in my home, they'll be treated like part of the family. I have a securely fenced yard for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks, and my own pets are friendly, social, and enjoy meeting new companions. Every pet has their own personality, so I take the time to help them settle in at their own pace. If your dog is kennel trained or prefers the security of a crate, I have two large kennels available to make them feel comfortable. As a veterinary technician with over six years of experience, I'm also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, including administering medications, injections, subcutaneous fluids, and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to provide not only a fun stay but also a safe one. For walks and drop-in visits, your pet's safety is always my top priority. I always ensure dogs are securely leashed before opening any door or gate, and I pay close attention to their body language and comfort level throughout our time together. I enjoy getting to know each pet's unique routines, quirks, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and low-stress. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I believe in building lasting relationships based on trust, communication, and compassion. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in experienced, loving hands.
“Michael is the greatest. He has really been wonderful keeping my pup happy. I receive texts and pictures everyday and he always updates me on how my dog is doing. I highly recommend Michael as a sitter. My dog took to him right away that's just the kind of person he is.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Mary and her wonderful family. From the moment I met them, I knew Tula was in kind, capable hands. Mary has a loving home filled with children, cats, and dogs, and Tula settled in as if she had always belonged there. It was clear she was treated as part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and excellent care. Knowing Tula was happy, safe, and well-loved gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We are so grateful to Mary and her family for welcoming her into their home, and we would not hesitate to trust them with Tula again. We highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for exceptional, loving care for their pet.”
“Apollo can be a handful with his anxiety and reactivity, and Bri handled it beautifully. They had a rocky first night, because he kept barking at every small noise. After several hours of this, he had her a bit worried about whether or not she could get him to settle down and sleep. But she stuck with it and got him to calm down and pass out. From there the visit went great. She followed our feeding and medication instructions exactly, worked on some training with him during his stay, and did a nice job with redirecting his attention when he got reactive on walks. Communication was excellent throughout. I received regular photos and updates, and she flagged any concerns as they came up rather than letting them sit. The best sign of how the weekend went: at pickup, Apollo planted himself on and between her feet multiple times while we were talking about how the weekend went. He clearly trusts and adores her, which can be difficult given his anxiety. We'll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Willie, my dog, has nothing to say, as usual. But I'm sure he was comfortable, safe, and happy. I couldn't ask for more. Brittany is polite, fast to respond to messages, seems truly to love the company of dogs, and her rates are good. She will be my go-to pet sitter in ABQ from now on. Rover is also easy to work with. Thank you all for rescuing us from the kennel miasma in this town.”
