Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sandia Park
“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.”
“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!”
“Rosalia gave our dog excellent care and lots of attention. We received plenty of updates so we were always comfortable our dog was doing well. We found Rosalia to be very responsive and flexible and are happy to be booking with her again for a much longer trip.”
“We were in a bind due to a family emergency which prohibited us from taking the dog, and very apprehensive about the safety and care of our beloved Mowgli. Such gratitude that Cindy stepped in, we were able to meet that day and throughout the trip we received updates showing Mowgli so well cared for. When we got home he was completely contented. Thank you Rover and especially Cindy - you gave us peace of mind at a time when it meant so much.”
“Josie, Pete & Paco are the best crew to take care of your pup! Josie always sends great updates and pics & you can tell how much she and her husband really care for your dog. We’ve had 2 dogs stay with Josie and I’d highly recommend her to anyone who wants their dog to have a great time while they’re away!”
“Another successful stay with Cecilia and Dan! This time, when I was getting Buddy’s things together to go over there, I told him he was going to see them, and he got super-excited and ran to the door repeatedly! He even jumped in the car before it was time for us to head over there! Pretty safe to say that Buddy loves being with them, and that makes us happy!”
“Bonnie has been a Godsend for us here in Albuquerque. She takes excellent care of Spike and communicates while we are away. I highly recommend her services.”
“Onrae was great. We left Ansel with him for just over a week and it really let us relax knowing he was in good hands. He sent several updates and pictures and was always quick to respond to messages and questions. He did a great job in trying to keep a good routine for the dog, and it seemed like Ansel loved playing with the kids and having a new environment to explore! Will definitely be looking to call him again in the future for our pet care needs!”
“My Dogs have stayed with Mark 3 times now. They enjoy the day or even the week we were gone. Mark was great at communicating and sending pictures. I have both a large dog and a teeny dog and he was equally comfortable with both. I appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to give meds. The dogs both enjoy staying with him.”
“Debbie was an amazing caretaker for our pup! She was always very professional and prompt with meetings and questions, had a great rapport with our dog when she was nervous at drop-off, and kept us posted on how things were going. We'd love to leave Coco with Debbie again when we next need to leave town without our dog! Thanks Debbie!!”
“Thanks so much for taking such great care of Woody. Wishing you a happy New Year and all the best as you finish up school—he’ll definitely miss you and Gullu!”
“Great sitter! Received many pictures during the pups’ time with Anne and the dogs received many walks and a lot of love. Anne has a good size backyard and the pups spent a lot of time just sniffing around everything, too. I think they get a little vacation when they are with her.”
“Sophie is so nice, gentle, accommodating, & a wonderful pup care-giver. Plus she sent an update and cute photos every day. We couldn't ask for anything more & will definitely use her again if she is available.”
“Cindy was great with our three dogs while we were out of town. She is experienced and overall everything seems to have gone very well! She communicated regularly with us and was very flexible. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Wren and her husband were such an amazing couple to leave our sweet old lady with! She sent us daily pictures and updates about Mila's stay and Mila seemed so happy during her stay, like they welcomed her directly into their family! They were super flexible with drop off and pick up times too. We would definitely book another stay with Wren again!”
“Our dog Chloe had a great stay with Esperita while we were out of town. She gave Chloe extra TLC with lots of outdoor activity, and she was very accommodating in terms of our travel times. Thank you!!!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone, so we were a little nervous—but Jamie made the whole experience incredibly easy and reassuring. She was wonderful from the start and even set up a play date beforehand so we could make sure it was a good fit, which we really appreciated. Drop-off and pickup were both smooth and hassle-free, and during the stay we received regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. It was clear our dog was well cared for and happy the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and would absolutely trust Jamie again in the future.”

“Shelly was great. Communicated well, sent lots of pictures, and I truly believe she liked our cats (which makes me feel good). I don’t hesitate at all to recommend her and plan to call her the next time we need someone.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong cat lover and a dedicated cat owner. Since becoming an adult, I’ve had the joy of caring for my own cat every day. Living with a cat has taught me to understand their unique personalities, respect their boundaries, and recognize the importance of creating a calm, stress-free environment. I have experience with daily feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, grooming, and providing plenty of love and attention while respecting each cat’s individual comfort level. I understand that every cat has different routines and preferences, and I’m happy to follow your instructions carefully to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My husband is a retired U.S. Air Force veteran, and together we have a stable, loving, and pet-friendly home. We know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved cat with someone else, and we take that responsibility seriously. I’ll provide regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your cat is receiving attentive, compassionate care. My goal is to make your cat feel as comfortable and loved as they do at home.
“August did a wonderful job caring for our girls again! They got lots of love while we were gone, which makes it easier to travel knowing they are in good hands.”
About: Ive been watching my family’s and friends animals for years now. With the responsibility of feeding them, giving them water, and playing with them when needed. I have to take care of my cat and dog daily and I often watch my neighbors dogs, cats and horses for them while they travel. I always make sure I take care of the animals according to the owners instructions, or to take care of their house as they ask.
“Rufus was very pleased with Sophia and requested her as his executive assistant next time I'm out of town. Sophia sent me photos and videos every day. And Rufus was cared for both physically and emotionally. Please note that Rufus is a special needs cat and that Sophia was required to give him medication as well as food and water.”
“This is the third time we have enlisted and entrusted CJ to care for our Blue Heller, Banjo. She does an excellent job of providing great care, sending photos during her in-home visit, and communicating with us while we're away. Having CJ drop in to check on Banjo and keep him active gives us definite peace of mind when we have to leave our sweet boy home for a few days. Would highly recommend CJ's Rover services.”
“Rita sent pictures and videos everyday as she cat sat for us. Our cat is not as anxious as she was when we left her alone over a weekend. She is still healthy and did not cling to us too much when we came home. I recommend Rita and will be looking to see if she's available first for future bookings!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life from german shepherds to dachshunds . The only time I can recall not having a dog was the first couple years in the Navy because I was out to sea so much. I love dogs of all sizes! I currently have a 10 year old weimaraner of my own Ari. So your precious pup will have someone to play with while staying with me. I take my own dog on walks/hikes, to dog park, runs, and swimming when we can find water for her. For being in Navy veteran and nurse, I am responsible and will take good care of your pup. Plus, there is vet not even .25 miles from home, if something where to go array which is not likely. Can't wait to meet you and your pup! I am currently in masters program and working remote and essentially here all day with them. Plenty of potty breaks and walks to come. Safe friendly neighborhood I have a fenced yard and lots of easy safe walking my neighborhood. I can crate them if you prefer but they are allowed on furniture here.
“We needed someone to watch our 2 cats on short notice. Alison was very accommodating and still made time to meet our cats and have us walk her through our care instructions. She provided us with updates and pictures everyday to put us at ease about leaving our cats behind. Overall great experience! We would absolutely recommend Alison!”
About: I have been pet sitting since my early teens watching all my neighbors' animals. I've always been an animal lover and you can see it quickly in how your animals will respond to meeting me! I've adopted several dogs and cats in my time, and I am well versed in dealing with most conditions, including giving medication to an unhappy pet. My pet services aren't just about making sure your pet is alive, feed, and pottied. Their emotional well-being is just as important to me and I take the time to play and get to know each of my pet clients. I currently am a stay at home mom and am available to check in on your pets throughout the day and evening as needed throughout the week. I'd love to have continuous clients so that I can better serve you and your pets as I get to know them each better! The services offered by me would be in your home (aka your pet's safe space) or on walks in nearby neighborhoods or parks. I will take the time to make sure your pet is played and socialized in the manner they are most used to!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sandia Park
About: I have had family dogs my whole life and now have 2 of my own ❤️. Pets are family and deserve the best care ❤️ I am communicative and will take great care of your furbaby and can update you with lots of photos during my time with your pet :) I love photography so you will wind up with very adorable pet pics XD I am available every day of the week and have a very flexible schedule. Please reach out and we can schedule a meet & greet! :) I love going on walks. I also run, so If your pup needs exercise I can make it happen! I will treat your pet as if they were mine!
“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!”
“James has been awesome with foster George (AKA Houdini) who has been on the euthanasia list 3 times. . . and his next time will be his last. George is the sweetest dog ever but his escapism has been problematic. James has been his life saver while I am at work, and has provided George playmates and activity throughout the day. James is DEFINITELY worth considering if you need care for your dog. . . (Just don't steal George's spot. . . We need James.)”
“Esperita is perfect for my dog Molly! Molly is a Tijuana Rescue Cockapoo so she can be wary of new people and places and needs understanding and patience. Esperita took the time Molly needs and now they are fast friends! I am so lucky to have found her! I will be a regular user!!!”
“Paige has made this experience a dream for Eivor and my family. We can breathe easy knowing how well taken care of he is and how much he is loved. The environment couldn’t be more perfect for Eivor. Paige is such a blessing! I am beyond grateful!”
“I had such peace of mind leaving my dog with Charles for doggy daycare. Charles updated me regularly with photos and accommodated my variable drop off and pick up times. I will definitely utilize Charles again!”
“Celeste was warm, friendly, and kind with Oreo, who is still getting used to doggy daycare. She made sure Oreo felt comfortable. Her dog Murphy was as gentle and welcoming, which really helped Oreo adjust. I’m super grateful for the care and looking forward to having Oreo stay with Celeste and Murphy again. Thank you!”
“My girl Luna had a great time with Lwren and her husband. She spent 6-1/2 hours at their home. Felt very good about leaving her in their care. Luna is young and energetic. They did a great job of walking her and playing with her. We will be repeat customers!”
“Kimberly was easy to book a Meet and Greet and also my Doggy Day Care. Going back to the office more, I felt bad leaving Sadie home all day by herself, so I figured a play day every now and then help. But I was worried, because Sadie has lots of energy and just wants to play when she's with other dogs. Kimberly made me feel very comfortable letting Sadie stay with her. My Sadie must have played hard with her Ridgebacks because she was exhausted when I got her home. She only got up to eat and back to sleep. Haha. Just what I wanted. Kimberly even gave her a homemade doggie popsicle, which she seemed to love. I would definitely book again. Thanks Kimberly!”
About: Hello! Thank you so much for considering me to care for your furry friends. I've always been a huge animal lover and enjoy helping people. I have a fully trained Belgian Malinois and a sweet Siamese cat, both of whom are my babies. I promise to treat your pets with the same love and care. If your dog pulls on the leash, that's not a problem at all! I'm tall and strong, and I'm confident in my ability to handle even the most determined pups. With your permission, I can also incorporate some proven training exercises from professional trainers to help improve their leash manners. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely love and have plenty of experience with. Animals are so pure and full of love, and I strive to be the kind of person they deserve. If you give me the opportunity to care for your fur baby, I'll ensure they receive all the love and proper care they need. I hope you choose me, and I look forward to meeting your furry one(s) soon! Thank you! ❤️ 🐾 Now Offering a Private Sniff Spot for Your Pup! 🐾 Feel free to reach out with any questions or to book a visit! 🐶💛 I work from home remotely so I’m available all week. Some times I do have to go in the office for a week, but that’s typically only once a month. Just let me know what you need and I can make it work! Whatever your fur baby might need; walks, check ins, feeding, water, medication, exercise, exta love & attention, the list can go on just you let me know and I'd be more than happy to be the one to do it! 😁
“Holly and Robert were fantastic! They responded quickly, took him last minute and they had other dogs that my dog loved playing with. I will be going to them again.”
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.
About: I have lots of flexibility throughout the day and on the weekends. I’m a proud fur mama of a 4 year old Shih Tzu. She’s very well behaved and loves other animals and people. We don’t have any other children or pets so when I pet sit she gets the opportunity to play with her friends at home. We have an open home where the dogs are free to roam around or in and out of the house to our gated and secure backyard. I wanted to become a sitter for a couple reasons. I know what its like looking for a dog sitter myself. It’s hard to know who to trust with our fury family members. I’m responsible, reliable, and most importantly I have integrity. My other reason is because, I enjoy it! I work part time as a Registered Nurse. If I have accepted to care for your dog in my home that is because I will be home all day to care for your furry friend. I will have time to play with them, take them for walks, and give them the attention they need. Safety is number one in my book. My home is clean and free of clutter. Pets are free to play in our secured and large fenced areas and watched carefully.
“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!”
“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!”
“Gail was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. My 11 week old puppy absolutely adored her and she gave updates and pics of the day. I am already planning to book with Gail again, I highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“Jason is great! My pups love going to his house for daycare. They are older and its always hard to find a place where they are comfortable like they are at home, but they are always excited whenever I drop them off!”
“Adam was a great pet care provider for day care for our 4 year old BC. Adam promptly answered our texts when we arranged booking and for drop off. He ixx AC a friendly and personable guy. His dog a Aussie was friendly and playful. This was a great experience and we highly recommend Adam for your pet care needs. Great Job! Thanks”
“I needed a last minute sitter for bear while she recovered from surgery, Lauren was able to watch her for the day! She did great helping bear feel comfortable and i was able to go to work without having to worry about her.”

About: Hi! I’m a caring, patient, and dependable pet lover. Since becoming an adult, I’ve been a devoted cat owner, and caring for my cat has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every pet has their own unique personality. After my husband and I started our family, we welcomed our own dog into our home. Caring for both a dog and a cat every day has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, cleaning up after pets, and recognizing different behaviors and needs. My husband is a retired U.S. Air Force veteran, and together we have built a stable, loving, and pet-friendly home. We understand that trusting someone else with your beloved pet is a big decision, and we take that responsibility seriously. Our goal is to provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where every pet feels loved and at home. I believe pets are family, and I will always follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, or administering medication when needed, I’ll make sure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Because I believe every pet deserves individualized attention, I only accept the number of pets that I can safely and responsibly care for. My priority is always providing quality care—not just supervision. I would be honored to care for your furry family member as if they were one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and reliable care for your pet. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding, I make sure every pet gets the time, exercise, and attention they need. I respond to messages promptly and will do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule whenever possible. My husband and I have a stable, pet-friendly home where pets are treated like family. We currently have one friendly dog and one cat, so I’m experienced in caring for animals with different personalities and routines. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I introduce pets thoughtfully, prioritize their comfort and safety, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I have had animals my whole life, and have worked in the pet industry for 6 years. My day job experience has been at 2 different local pet food stores, where I’ve learned a lot about the needs of dogs and cats, as well as body language. My old job had foster cats, so I have experience taking care of up to 10 cats at a time (feeding, litter cleaning, meds, and playtime). I also have pet sat for many of my friends and family members. I love walking! I enjoy taking my own dog on short walks or really long walks to get his energy out. I have experience with high energy dogs that may pull or not be comfortable around other dogs or people. I also have experience with puppies and kittens, and special needs pets. I’ve owned 2 disabled dogs that required diaper changes, meds, and regular bathing and cleaning up after them. I am currently going to school full time at UNM. My schedule is pretty flexible though, and I am willing to work with you! I can come before, in between, or after class and on weekends! I will always want to come meet you and your pet before I start the service. I will take notes on everything so I can keep your pet on their routine, no matter how specific. I want to make you and your pet 100% comfortable! I am experienced with reading body language with pets, so I can tell if your pet is too overwhelmed or nervous. I also love sending updates, including photos and videos, to let you know how your fur baby is doing!
About: Transport, Medications, All Sizes/Breeds/Ages, Any Diet (including Raw) Every pet in my care receives my sole focus during our time together.

Please feel free to give me detailed schedule instructions. While I cannot board pets in my own home, I embrace any and all safety measures instructed, as well as anticipate any safety issues and resolve them before an incident can occur.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, I cared for all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to goats and chickens. Today, I share my home with three dogs and three cats, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find a pet sitter you can trust. I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles or just a calm companion, I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. I treat every animal like family because that’s exactly what they are. I currently work remote with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the day. Since I can work from almost anywhere with my laptop, I have the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, and check-ins as needed. I am typically available in the afternoons and evenings for longer walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine and ensuring they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away. When caring for pets in a clients home, my top priorities are safety, consistency, and making sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pets routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I treat every home with the same respect I would expect for my own. During visits, I ensure pets have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and affection, and that doors, gates, and other potential hazards are secure before I leave. I also provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand that trust is incredibly important, and I strive to provide dependable, attentive care for every pet I meet.
About: I am retired and a animal lover with experience caring for puppies, seniors, rescues, and giant breeds. Reliable, patient care in a safe, pet-friendly environment. I am currently retired from government work and a non profit career. I retired very young and I am very active, loving nature and walking. I have two very large dog runs with dog houses in each. My pets are both indoors at night and in their dog run daily.
About: I’ve owned three dogs throughout my life. Being able to care for your pets bring me so much joy! Family and friends always have me look after their pets when they go on vacation! I go on a daily walk so watching pets fits perfectly into this schedule. I’m also self employed so I’ll Have more than enough time to keep pets company I follow the schedule given to me as well as trying to spend extra time and give extra love to your pets. Respecting all privacy!
About: We had a senior dog that was getting close to 16 so I'm fine with doing a bunch of little extra things for their food. I have never administered medication or done any dog training I have school from 8:15 to 1:35 and on wensdays it's 8:15 to 11:25. On weekends there's not much going on so my schedule is pretty open for whatever is needed. I have plenty of experience with tricking animals with food. Most of my time is spent petting them but I'm happy to play with them or take them on walks.
About: I have owned dogs all of my life and understand that they are family members and should be treated as such! I love all dogs from big to small and young to old. While I do not have any pets of my own right now, I would love to help care for yours whether it be feeding, walking, playing, loving on them or more. I am currently off for the summer leaving me plenty of time to care for your pets. From August to May, I work 2 days a week so I will still have plenty of availability. I have two daughters who live with me part time ages 9 and 7 who love pets as well. I would love to care for your pets as you see fit in your home! Just let me know their daily routine and I can accommodate.
About: I have cared for an array of animals over the years including dogs, cats, reptiles, chickens and even pet rats! I deeply enjoy time spent with animals which is why housesitting has always been ideal for me! I myself have multiple dogs and cats that are well cared for and your animals will receive the same attention and care! I am a student at UNM, so most morning I do have to head to campus around 9-10 am. All morning care would be handled before then. My classes have me on campus no longer than 4-5 hours before I would be able to check on your animals. Weekends I work 6-9 hour shifts, but if care requires less gaps between visits this time can be taken off to give your pets around the clock care. This would require at minimum 2 weeks notice and cannot be guaranteed. I am comfortable giving pill or liquid medication for your pets. As well as walking any size dog as long as some leash training is in place. I normally will wash the sheets and towels used if staying overnight! I am very cleanly and will leave your home and pets clean or cleaner than when yall left!
About: Hi! My name is Maggie and I would love the opportunity to take care of your dog or kitty!! My husband and I have 2 large dogs (German Shepherd - Border Collie mix named Kuzco, and a Lab mix puppy named Jamie - I am obsessed with them!), I also have a huge soft spot for kitties as I grew up in a household of 3 cats, and we hope to adopt a cat soon! I have experience volunteering at a shelter focusing on socializing the cats, as well as experience pet-sitting for both dogs and cats, and I worked as a dog walker for 2 poodles throughout my childhood.I love playing with cats and dogs, taking our dogs to the dog park, training Jamie, and especially taking long walks with the 3 of us together! I am mature, responsible, and communicative, and I am committed to taking care of your pet as I would take care of my own! I work close to home and I am available in mornings and afternoons / evenings for pet care, I am also usually available on weekends. I love to take buddies out for a good solid walk, play with your kitty or pup, and of course, give all the snuggles (unless you let me know otherwise!).
“Svetlana was punctual and great with our dogs. I loved the updates and photos she sent during their walks. We appreciate having her nearby and potentially available even for last minute care or walks.”
About: I have taken care of animals as far back as a kid. I was the neighbor who loved other people's fur kids. Through the years I have traveled being a military spouse and I was the spouse who always took in others' pets while they went on vacations or work-related trips. I have also done volunteer work at shelters and been a foster parent for dogs/cats when needed. I spent some time in Tanzania one summer and quickly became the cow and chicken whisperer at an orphanage I volunteered at. I am able to do drop-in or babysit your fur kids at my home; as I am always home. I am currently a full-time online college student and do not currently work. In the past years, I have done a lot of volunteer work with shelters and was an educational assistant to special needs kids in the public school system. Cats and dogs are welcome in my home, and I have dog/cat beds available for their comfort. I also have three small dogs of my own that are super dog and cat friendly. We also have a seven-month-old kitten we adopted and he does well with other cats and dogs. I do not have a gated fence, as mine are trained to stay in the yard. I can take other pets out on a leash and walk for potty breaks. We have 7 acres. For drop-ins, I can feed, water, and walk your pets. I also do clean up after them and spend time playing and loving on your pets too.
About: Ive been watching my family’s and friends animals for years now. With the responsibility of feeding them, giving them water, and playing with them when needed. I have to take care of my cat and dog daily and I often watch my neighbors dogs, cats and horses for them while they travel. I always make sure I take care of the animals according to the owners instructions, or to take care of their house as they ask.
About: My name is Melody ... I was born to care for pets especially dogs !! I am currently a certified vet assistant, Fear Free Certified, as well as a vet tech student, I have loads of experience careing for dogs, cats, horses, small creatures and more. I've always been a dog lover so I have incorporated them into my everyday life. Passion for pets is my force !! I am trained in CPR , wound care , nutrition and well being. I have worked in vet offices... I am in close contact with many of my veterinary friends ... So if I have a concern I'm going to go straight to the top to insure the best care for your pet. Must love dogs!! Because I do ❤️ I guarantee I'll treat your dog like one of my own. I'm am free to dedicate a part of my day for your furbaby. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. It would be my pleasure to serve your needs! I am extremely careful when it comes to my pet's safety and yours as well. I am familiar with using leash techniques to prevent escape by utilizing fencing and confidence and rewards so your pet and I trust each other. Like my own.
About: I have had pets of many varieties my whole life. I have taken the most care of dogs and cats, and I feel I understand their behavior and how to meet their needs. I currently have two senior dogs I've had since they were puppies. My upbeat, bubbly personality makes it easy for me to play and connect with most animals. I look forward to meeting and caring for your fur baby! Right now my schedule is open in the afternoons during the week. I am available to hang out with your pets anytime after 12pm M-F, and I am willing to be flexible for the right client. I am a detail oriented rule-follower, if you sent out instructions on how to walk, play with, or otherwise care for your pet I will follow it to a T. I understand the stress and worry of leaving pets home alone while you work and of finding the right person to watch them, so I will do what I can to put those fears to rest. I prefer to give detailed communication with pet owners so they can know what is going on with their pet at all times while I am with them.
About: I have lots of flexibility throughout the day and on the weekends. I’m a proud fur mama of a 4 year old Shih Tzu. She’s very well behaved and loves other animals and people. We don’t have any other children or pets so when I pet sit she gets the opportunity to play with her friends at home. We have an open home where the dogs are free to roam around or in and out of the house to our gated and secure backyard. I wanted to become a sitter for a couple reasons. I know what its like looking for a dog sitter myself. It’s hard to know who to trust with our fury family members. I’m responsible, reliable, and most importantly I have integrity. My other reason is because, I enjoy it! I work part time as a Registered Nurse. If I have accepted to care for your dog in my home that is because I will be home all day to care for your furry friend. I will have time to play with them, take them for walks, and give them the attention they need. Safety is number one in my book. My home is clean and free of clutter. Pets are free to play in our secured and large fenced areas and watched carefully.

“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.”
“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!”
“Another successful stay with Cecilia and Dan! This time, when I was getting Buddy’s things together to go over there, I told him he was going to see them, and he got super-excited and ran to the door repeatedly! He even jumped in the car before it was time for us to head over there! Pretty safe to say that Buddy loves being with them, and that makes us happy!”
“Onrae was great. We left Ansel with him for just over a week and it really let us relax knowing he was in good hands. He sent several updates and pictures and was always quick to respond to messages and questions. He did a great job in trying to keep a good routine for the dog, and it seemed like Ansel loved playing with the kids and having a new environment to explore! Will definitely be looking to call him again in the future for our pet care needs!”
“Debbie was an amazing caretaker for our pup! She was always very professional and prompt with meetings and questions, had a great rapport with our dog when she was nervous at drop-off, and kept us posted on how things were going. We'd love to leave Coco with Debbie again when we next need to leave town without our dog! Thanks Debbie!!”
“Sophie is so nice, gentle, accommodating, & a wonderful pup care-giver. Plus she sent an update and cute photos every day. We couldn't ask for anything more & will definitely use her again if she is available.”
“Cindy was great with our three dogs while we were out of town. She is experienced and overall everything seems to have gone very well! She communicated regularly with us and was very flexible. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Wren and her husband were such an amazing couple to leave our sweet old lady with! She sent us daily pictures and updates about Mila's stay and Mila seemed so happy during her stay, like they welcomed her directly into their family! They were super flexible with drop off and pick up times too. We would definitely book another stay with Wren again!”
“Our dog Chloe had a great stay with Esperita while we were out of town. She gave Chloe extra TLC with lots of outdoor activity, and she was very accommodating in terms of our travel times. Thank you!!!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone, so we were a little nervous—but Jamie made the whole experience incredibly easy and reassuring. She was wonderful from the start and even set up a play date beforehand so we could make sure it was a good fit, which we really appreciated. Drop-off and pickup were both smooth and hassle-free, and during the stay we received regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. It was clear our dog was well cared for and happy the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and would absolutely trust Jamie again in the future.”
“Emily is an extraordinary Dog Sitter whom I trust wholeheartedly. I use her almost every other month for four days or so and I am always very very satisfied. She has a gem!”
“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!!”
“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!!”
“Doug did a great job taking care of my German Shepherd's. I have never used this app before and he eased my mind by sending me updates and pictures. The dogs came back home, healthy, and happy.”
“Melissa and Carlos were great with our two pups. Riley and Ralphs love their home and large yard. This is our third time having her sit for us. She is attentive and communicated well sending photos of our boys thru the day. We will def be back again ?”
“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...”
