It had been awhile since I boarded them and she made them feel right at home and sent pictures of them and sent updates frequently during their stay and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. My return trip was delayed and she was accommodating and flexible with the pickup time. I’ll definitely rebook with Ashleigh for future trips!”

“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!”

“Brain did a fantastic job with my pups. I knew from his listing and our meet and greet that he was the person I wanted for my pups and was well worth driving from the other side of town. His home inside and out was perfectly set up for fun and rest for dogs. My one is more hyper with so much energy came home exhausted. Brian did well with giving medication to my elderly dog. He kept me updated when I was on my work trip so I didn’t need to worry. Thank you so much Brian!!”

“Crystal provided a wonderful environment for my dog Lucy. Her home is a dog (specially a husky) owner’s dream, with a big backyard and a tall fence which includes different areas for a pet to be mentally stimulated to explore. As a dog owner herself, she understands and learns the nuances of every pet so your pet will have such an enjoyable time that a repeat stay will seem like they’re going back to their second home.”

About: I have over 10 years experience caring for cats of my own as well as my friends cats. However, my childhood was filled with cats and I just love all of their quirky personalities traits. My own cat is very particular about who she lets pet her and I'm proud to say I'm high up on that list. I'm adaptable and comfortable with all types of cats - young and old, sassy and chill, shy and wild. I'm a great communicator and will provide regular updates and pictures on how your cat is doing. I want to be able to give you peace of mind while you're away and to do so, I'll do my best to learn how best to take care of your cat. I have great attention to detail so if you provide a care instruction, you can rest assured that it won't go unnoticed. I'm comfortable giving your cat food, water, and treats. I'm also comfortable cleaning out litter boxes. My schedule is flexible as I am currently home full time and I can accept last minute bookings. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns so that I can help put your mind at ease. I look forward to working with you and your cat(s)!

“Highly recommend booking with Sara! She was so caring, attentive, and thoughtful. It was obvious how much she cared for our home and cat. And she completed everything in such a detailed way. We will definitely book her again!”

“Victoria was awesome! She was very responsive and on time. She sent a lot of photos and a nice summary of how Mia was doing and how well she was eating and so on. She also went the extra mile and brought in some packages that were left on our doorstep while we were away! Definitely will use her again!”

“We had to leave town urgently and Dawn stepped in last minute to watch our 3 cats, including two high-energy kittens! She always takes excellent care of our fur family 🐈🐈⬛🐈⬛”


“Desirea was exactly what we were looking for — someone to come check on our cat, give her some love, attention, and play time, and feed her in the morning. She even was willing to come over and meet me and my cat ahead of time to get to know us. She sent us pictures and was very easy to communicate with the whole time. We’ll definitely reach back out to her the next time we’re headed out of town!”


“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!”

“For some reason my cat didn’t want to come out for Sarah, but I believe she did everything I asked. She worked with my schedule and responded to requests. My door wasn’t fully closed when I got back, which was concerning but luckily no one got in or out, so this didn’t end up impacting the cat or security.”


About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own: learning their quirks, routines, and comfort zones so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and full of energy for playful ones! Whether it’s long walks, extra cuddle time, or sticking to a specific feeding schedule, I make sure your pet gets personalized care and love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I plan my days around walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I love spending time outdoors and being active, so walks and visits fit perfectly into my lifestyle. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I truly enjoy every day. When I care for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping everything as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions carefully. From feeding schedules and walks, to medication or specific routines. I spend quality time with each pet so they feel loved and secure, and I always make sure your home is respected and left tidy. I want you to come back to a happy pet and a peaceful home.

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was about 12! I am definitely a cat person and have such a soft spot for your fur babies! I have about 2 years of experience walking cats as well as pet sitting! I have no problem cleaning litter boxes and giving oral medications.

About: I’ve lived and cared for cats for my entire life. There was never a time in which there were less than 2 cats in my household but it was usually 3! Most of my cats were ones I’ve had from the time they were 8 weeks old until they were seniors so I have plenty of experience with the needs of cats of all ages. Some of my past cats had health issues which has given me experience in administering medications and accommodating physical disabilities. I have 3 cats currently ranging in age from 1 to 5 years old and most of my day is spent with them attached to my hip (one is a Siamese, if you know you know lol). My first pet was a Siamese cat that I got when I was 5 and cats have had a special place in my heart since then. I fall in love with every cat I meet and I can’t wait to meet yours! 🥰 Disclaimer: there’s a high chance you receive a drawing of your cat if I’m watching them for more than an hour lol be prepared

“Natasha is a wonderful sitter for my kitty Sookie. She’s watched her a couple times now and gets along great with Sookie. Natasha is communicative, flexible, and I would book again.”


“Kerianne was an amazing cat sitter. She did everything I asked perfectly with my senior cat that requires daily medicine. Her daily notes were great and thorough. I didnt have to worry at all while away for a long weekend. I would highly recommend her!”


“Sara did a great job with taking care of my little buddy and great communication throughout the entire process. Gave me peace of mind while I was away from him for the first time. Would happily go with her again”

About: I wanted a dog my whole life but my parents weren't pet people. I finally got my own dog as an adult when I also had two toddlers. It was way more work than I thought it would be, but training my puppy and watching him grow and teaching my kids about caring for a dog was so incredibly fulfilling! I loved learning about training and dog behavior and psychology and learned so much! I love all animals and especially love dogs and would love to share that love with your dog too!! I am a full time stay at home mom so my schedule is very flexible. Two of my kids are in school all day and I have a 2 year old who is home with me all day. I spend most of my time at home, with the occasional outings and errand running. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can fit your dog's schedule easily into mine. I can do potty breaks and walks whenever necessary and I live near a couple parks with dog runs that I like to take my dog to, so I could easily bring your dog as well. Though I am busy with 3 kids, I'm never too busy to love and care for extra pets! I have a fenced yard where your dog can go out for potty breaks. It is not a huge yard, but it is safe with rocks and turf where my dog uses the bathroom. My dog is inside for pretty much the whole day so your dog would be with him inside as well. I do have 3 kids, so your dog needs to be ok with small children, but they have all grown up with a dog and know how to be kind and respectful to dogs.
“Michael was great with my dog Peanut, he was very professional; he walked my dog twice and sent timely pictures and behavior reports. I used his services twice in 2 days and my dog Peanut really likes him and I intend to use his services in the future.”

“Arysta was wonderful! She helped our puppy relax and enjoy her time with other dogs, and helped me relax ? on my trip without the worry of what my fur baby was doing. Thank you, Arysta.”

“Victoria was great! She was able to watch my pups on short notice and responded quickly to my questions. My girls got to hang outside and enjoy the great views from the yard.”

About: As a life long pet owner, I have had great report with animals of all sizes. I have trained and enjoyed a kennel free environment. All my dogs have had happy lives and great disposition with kids and other animals. I will provide a safe and loving home for your dog where they will receive a ton of love and petting. I love that my dog will follow me around and look for any moment to get petting and affection; even will force my bathroom door open, knowing I am a captive audience. I look forward to doing the same for your pooch. I have walked dogs both short and long distances. Thank you for your consideration and look forward to meeting your family member (dog).
“We immediately knew Brian was a thorough and good caregiver at our meet and greet (same for his dog Asha?) Our dog Jazz had her first day with them both and she was raving about how great of a day she had…right before she passed out! She was so happy when I picked her up (and was happy when she was first dropped off). No doubt that our pup, with her separation anxiety, didn’t experience ANY anxiety today. I know she’ll be asking about when she gets to go again as soon as she wakes up! Thank you Brian and Asha! See you soon?”


“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”

“Shell came through for me again! My dog is having the time of his life with her. I’m so grateful to her responding quickly, and being able to help on short notice. She is a blessing!”

“My dog had a blast playing with the other dogs at the house! Brittany was great to communicate with and very flexible with scheduling. I will definitely plan more play dates with her and her pups!”

“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!”
“Holly was great with Loki! She picked up on his occasional anti-social attitude toward other dogs and let him stay close to her where he is more comfortable. He seemed happy when I picked him up. They were very responsive with communication and easy to make an appointment with!”


“Brandi is so wonderful and patient. We were visiting in the area and I wanted to take my son to the Rodeo for the 1st time. So we neededa sitter for our Beagle, Bailey last minute. Brandi responded very quickly and kept us updated throughout the day. Thank you Brandi for taking care of Bailey so we could make some amazing memories.”

“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”

“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.”

“Ashleigh is wonderful! ‘Chandler’ took to her right away. She’s not only reliable, but quite accommodating with my changing schedule. She’s a true dog lover and I highly recommend her.”

About: I love animals and enjoy spending time with them.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, giving me firsthand experience with their unique personalities, needs, and proper care. More recently, I was a member on another pet sitting website when I was a student at a university in Paris,France, where I had experience taking care of dogs and cats in my own apartment for a few different families for a period of time. The best part about watching pets is the pleasure I get from being able to give them love while their owners were away. I’ll be home in New Mexico for a few months before I return to Paris so my availability is completely open. I can watch pets any day and any hour. I’ll closely follow a pets routine, providing fresh water, food as instructed, exercise/playtime, medication if needed, a safe environment, and of course lots of love and affection.
“Luca has been my dog's walker for 6 months now. He is very caring and attentive and my dog Brigid loves him. He's always willing to adapt, whether it's to a new cat or impromptu vet visit.”

About: I give your pets attention and affection, keeping them comfortable while you’re away. I send pictures most days to assure you all is well. My services include house-sitting, so your pets stay home where they’re comfortable. I have decades of experience with a variety of breeds. Let’s talk about what worries you and we’ll find a solution everyone is happy with! I’d prefer to visit your pets before securing the booking, to make sure we all get along. I am self employed and pet care is one of the ways I earn my living. I also work remotely for some of my clients and use the wi-fi to get tasks done. I have been house/pet sitting for decades. I treat your home as if I was a welcome guest, but not a part of the household. Over the years, I’ve had jobs where I was bonded for security, which means I have a clean record. I’ve been entrusted with confidential & proprietary information. I’ve adhered to HIPAA rules without breaking a sweat. I am trustworthy and friendly. I have a silly sense of humor and have skewed streaming algorithms with binging scifi. I’ve lived in the extremes of rural to urban environments. I can greet & thank people in ten languages. My idea of a party is a bowl of ice cream and a movie (sci-fi, British drama). Before we book anything, I’d like to stop by the house and give the critter(s) a chance to get a good look/smell of me and you can give me the lay of the land. Housesitting: I’m being hired to keep the critter(s) company, and that’s what I do. Nana comes to visit and keeping the house safe and the animal(s) safe and happy is my primary duty. My habit is to bring my own supplies, so when you get home, everything is how you left it. I have a ukulele and I sing familiar covers, so I’ll mention it now in case the neighbors mention something about it. (I have yet to have a dog howl as I sang, though the huskies were very talkative.) Drop-In: Depending on our discussion during the Meet & Greet, I will swing by your house according to the schedule we’ve set up. I will make sure the water is fresh and the food bowl has plenty of food. (My job is to make sure the animal(s) know they are being cared for and that they don’t have to stress about whether or not they will starve to death - I’m thinking of cats especially here who see the bottom of the food bowl and start to panic. Not on my watch!) Walk: I’ll be at your house at the time(s) we’ve discussed, put on the collar and leash, and set out on the adventure. My habit is to sing as I walk so that any other critter has a chance to get out of sight - a lesson learned by startling a skunk. It is important that I know if the neighborhood is friendly or if folks keep to themselves. Do(es) the dog(s) visit friends on the trail? or should I keep them on their own?

“Patricia is great and so kind!! We had a crisis over a missing dog leash and she was so flexible and relaxed and made do with what she had. We will be booking with her again!!”

About: Hi there, my name is Mercedes. I've had family dogs for my whole life and absolutely can't get enough of them - I've had experience with multiple breeds and sizes as well as ages. Right now in this stage of life, I work full time and try to be as open/flexible as possible. I am also pregnant so caring for larger dogs is a little more difficult. I can work around your schedule so send me a message to work out the details. I’ve had such a great experience on Rover and really love all the dogs I’ve gotten to look after so far. Please let me know about your dogs exercise needs and how to best care for them! I currently have a cat who is not the biggest fan of dogs, so it’s fun to care for dogs on Rover when they’re parents are at work or out of town :) I currently work full time, but I work fully remote so I am flexible around your pets routine. Please let me know details when you book! I do not offer services in my own home, but will follow all of your home rules when it comes to safety and boarding. Please let me know details when you book.

About: I grew up in a house full of animals. As long as I can remember, my family has lived with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens, lizards, frogs, snails, salamanders and all manner of wild backyard critters as well to attend. I was raised to respect these animals as well as attend to their needs. I believe love and respect go hand-in-hand, and I love creatures of all shapes and sizes! Since I was old enough to babysit, I was also pet-sitting! I believe that animals are not only our friends and our kindred spirits, but also our duty to care for well. I spent time working as a pet nutritional expert at a store in Austin, TX, and that experience only increased my passion for animals and their well-being. I love to travel, and know that it makes all the difference to leave someone you trust with your critters. My headline includes my vision statement; I endeavor to become a friend to your pet, and while you're away, provide my full presence, my dedicated care, and my joy at being with them. I work at two museums in Albuquerque on weekdays, but live in Bernalillo. I'm a graduate student at UNM, so my class schedule is mostly afternoons right now. My cat's a rather needy fellow, so he's happiest when I'm home. I make sure to make time to spend with him on weekends, mornings, and evenings, and spend time making up for missed cuddles then. I keep his areas very clean, he drinks only from a fountain, and I keep him to a strict feeding schedule (much to his chagrin and occasional break-in attempts of the food container). My frogs, Gus and Markl, need live food once a week and clean water every day, and I maintain a heat lamp schedule for them as well, as well as regular maintenance to their bioactive terrarium. When my parents are out of town, I take care of our two dogs, Lilo and Clara, and nine chickens. The dogs need to be walked, the chickens need to be fed and their eggbox cleaned, and there's lots to do to make sure everyone is comfortable. Lilo's pretty anxious, and Clara's getting up in years, so I make time in my work schedule to return home midday to check on them if I'm out and about. Depending on your pet's needs, I'm flexible in terms of schedule. :) It's important to me that you are confident in your pets' safety and comfort. I will not take dogs outside without a leash, unless they are in a fenced-in yard, and I don't let cats outside unleashed on principle as I believe this makes them a danger to themselves, other cats, and smaller animals. You can expect photos from me of your pets if you'd like them, and if they let me I'll happily clean out eye-boogers, snuggle with them, and ensure that they have love and companionship during the stressful time you're away.

“Coco loves staying with Maellen and her family! I love that I receive photos and videos, but can stay worry free while I am away. Thank you for taking such good care of Coco.”


“Ashleigh and her family were great with my two dogs. It had been awhile since I boarded them and she made them feel right at home and sent pictures of them and sent updates frequently during their stay and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. My return trip was delayed and she was accommodating and flexible with the pickup time. I’ll definitely rebook with Ashleigh for future trips!”

“First time using Mina and Hannah and they were great. We received many updates and pictures and our dog had a couple of walks in a short stay. Also quick to respond with the booking process.”

“Brandi was nice!! Also very flexible for my situation that happened when meeting, which I was Grateful for.. She replied to my messages, and gave me an update on how My dog was settling in .. it was a very good experience..”

“Brain did a fantastic job with my pups. I knew from his listing and our meet and greet that he was the person I wanted for my pups and was well worth driving from the other side of town. His home inside and out was perfectly set up for fun and rest for dogs. My one is more hyper with so much energy came home exhausted. Brian did well with giving medication to my elderly dog. He kept me updated when I was on my work trip so I didn’t need to worry. Thank you so much Brian!!”

“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!!!”

“Jamie and Patrick were AMAZING to our pup Harley. Extremely nice family and very communicative. This was also over a holiday weekend and they were just overall great! Will definitely be rebooking with them next time we go anywhere.”

“Crystal provided a wonderful environment for my dog Lucy. Her home is a dog (specially a husky) owner’s dream, with a big backyard and a tall fence which includes different areas for a pet to be mentally stimulated to explore. As a dog owner herself, she understands and learns the nuances of every pet so your pet will have such an enjoyable time that a repeat stay will seem like they’re going back to their second home.”

“Michael is fantastic! He’s so attentive to the pups and takes wonderful care of them - walks every day, plenty of play time, and tons of pictures to send to us for updates daily. Definitely recommend!”
“Jessie is great with animals and took very good care of Dally. She was very patient and responded kindly when Dally tried to out-smart her and caused trouble. Highly recommend!”

“Amazing service and wonderful dog sitters. They went above and beyond and my experience was absolutely fantastic. They kept in touch and provided pictures. I will definitely be rebooking again.”


“Sara did a wonderful job taking care of my doggo! She went above and beyond to make sure that my dog felt comfortable at her home with her loving care and attention. Sara also took the time to give my dog her daily supplements and treats. I really felt like Sara took care of my dog like her own pets--so loving! Thank you so much, Sara!!”

“Onrae is my very first Rover experience. Onrae responded quickly, professionally and was very responsive. I had concerns about my dogs behavior (he can be pretty high energy) Lucky for me Dashy was very well behaved at our meet and greet. After talking with Onrae a few minutes I had no concerns if Dashy did have any behavior issues staying there. When dropping off Dashy, he was excited to go in with the well mannered kids. I had prompt check in the next day. Basiclly Dashy did great and I had no concerned about his well being or about any behavior issues. Onrae is highly experienced and highly recommended. He's a no nonsense guy who seems to really care for dogs and client parents concerns. I will definately be using Onrae in the future!”

“Shell was amazing with our 4 month old puppy, Stella. We were nervous about leaving her but we had great communication and Shell’s house has the perfect setup whether you have a small or large dog. Stella loved playing with her new friends and came home tired😂 Would highly recommend Shell and we will be using her again!”

“Holly and Robert watched my dog Hazel for a few days while I was out of town. She got along great with the other dogs in the house, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in great hands during her stay! The hosts regularly communicated with me and provided pictures, as well. I highly recommend Holly and Robert for your boarding or overnight needs in the Albuquerque area 🐶 🐾”

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

“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.”
