“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!”

“Joshua has a great way about him and the big yard/environment felt right for my pup. When I was away Joshua’s photos gave me relief that my dog was having a great time. Will definitely go back!”

It was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I will definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring sitters.”

“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!”

“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!”


“Tracy puppy sat my baby girl! She made the day stress free. She sent updates through out the day and my pup came home happy and content. I would definitely recommend.”

“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!”

“My dog absolutely loved it at Cindy's house!! It's my first time using rover so I was a little nervous but Cindy went above and beyond! You can tell she really loves dogs and knows what she's doing. I definitely recommend!”

“Melinda was very interested in getting to know our dog. She asked a lot of questions about his behavior, his personality, his normal day, etc. She was very concerned about making our dog feel like he was as much at home as possible. Peso seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We would definitively recommend Melinda for dog sitting. She was quick to respond to messages, and she sent us a picture of Peso. We would use Melinda again if we are visiting Albuquerque in the future.”

“Peter took great care of my high energy black lab Birdie. Birdie and Peter's dog Mia hit it off right from the get go. Would not hesitate to leave Birdie with Peter anytime. Planning her next visit now.”

“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.”

“Becka is a rescued dog, so afraid of everybody. Not with Robert and Holly, she was smiling when I picked her up. I am so grateful of how nice they were with her. So, happy yo have them to help me with my beloved dog!”

“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 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.
“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!”

“Sarah has been so great taking care of Nalia. Nalia and Prince get along very well, and I really appreciated Sarah taking the time before our first doggy day care day to make sure they were a good fit. She has been incredibly flexible with my schedule and Nalia always comes back happy and sleepy!”

“I met Elaine and her doggies about a year ago. My dogs finally stayed at her house for four nights last month, and then for one day last week. My dogs had already met her dogs a year ago, and when they met up again, they were like old pals. No growling or hassling. It was perfect! I got daily updates and pictures from Elaine. It was so comforting! And my dogs did great at her house and with her dogs, and it was just the best! I booked a full-day stay last week, and they were literally going INSANE when we were driving into her neighborhood. That tells me a lot about their experience there! They love going to Elaine's house! Our next booking is during the Christmas-New Year's Eve time frame, and my dogs are already so excited, and Elaine has let me know that so is she, and she's gearing her doggies up for a week-long visit :-) My neighbors/friends that used to keep them all the time are moving back to NJ, so this is exactly what I needed at this time in my life. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dogs at Elaine's, whether it's for a day or a week! This is the best thing EVER!!!!”
“Stella loves going to see Kimberly and her new doggie friends. She is so excited to go there and cannot wait to hang out and play with her buddies.”

“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.”

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!)
“We loved Greg and miss him. He ALWAYS took great care of Athena and was available if our schedules changed. If we’re ever in Albuquerque again we’ll contact him again”

About: I've cared for pets my whole life - as a child, through adulthood, and with my own family. Now, my wife and I have Zeus and Nala, two adorable lab mixes who rule our life with walks, baths, and dinner time. I'm a longtime professional transitioning to a new career. Currently, I have no recurring commitments and have lots of availability and flexibility for intermittent or regular walks and sitting. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. I'm at home most of the day, and the doors stay open with access to a breezy porch and lots of sunlight.

About: I have owned diabetic dogs and one with epilepsy. Friends and coworkers always ask me to watch their furbabies because they know how good my husband and I are with our own. They trust us and coming from someone who rarely traveled and when I did I took them with me because I don't trust others would take care of them like I do. I understand the anxiety that comes with having to leave them behind for whatever reason. Knowing they will be loved and have fun makes it that much easier for both you and your pet. Safety and security are also most important to us so rest assured they will be okay. I'm a stay at home mom and my husband's business is from home so we are both always here. We never leave for more that 3 hours due to our 2 dogs. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around. My brother also lives across from me and has over an acre of running room as well if needed. My husband and I work from home and are always available. We used to have dogs with medical issues and couldn't really leave them with anyone. My husband and I love animals and know how hard it is to leave them anywhere. Even at petsmart hotel they stay inside a small area and the play area isn't that big. We work from home and are never away longer than 4 hours. We have a 2 year old who is really good with the dogs as well but Rest assured we never let her play with them unattended. We have a large yard for dogs and know that they will be taken care of and loved while visiting us. All pets need love and attention. Even pet hotels leave them alone overnight and the thought of them having to hold it or use it in their space to feel ashamed is aweful. With us you get peace of mind and that's priceless In my home they will be treated like our own. They can play outside as long as they want. They scratch on the door ahead. They want in or out. They sleep inside on our bed with us of course. We want them to sleep wherever they feel comfortable. My dog buddy sleeps in his cage when he stays with others because he feels safe there so we understand everyone is different.
“Kamari was great! She was a last minute dog walker when the one we had scheduled for a meet and greet was a no-show. She made the time to do a meet and greet at 8 pm. Highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience with both. I currently have four cats of my own and volunteer at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter, where I help make sure every homeless kitty gets the love and attention they deserve. In addition to pet sitting and walking for friends and neighbors since middle school, I’ve worked at a professional doggy daycare and boarding facility. There, I was responsible for supervising group play, feeding dogs with specific dietary needs, administering medications (including pills and liquids), bathing dogs, and keeping their environment clean, safe, and fun. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, a nice walk, or making sure your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family! My schedule is flexible, but I do have classes from 11–12 and 1–2 on weekdays. I’m typically available in the mornings, afternoons after 2, and evenings for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting. I’m usually off on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which means I often have more availability those days. However, I do occasionally work, so my schedule may vary slightly. Feel free to reach out and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs! In my clients’ homes, I make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for in their own space. I follow feeding routines, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give them all the attention they need. For dogs, I love going on walks and spending time outdoors. For cats, I offer lots of affection (when they want it!) and make sure litter boxes are kept clean. Whether it’s staying overnight or stopping by for a check-in, I always treat every pet like my own.

About: I have loves dogs for as long as I can remember. I have three dogs of my own, and have a lot of experience of dog breeding and taking care of their puppies who have all gone to nice homes. I love the animals with all my heart is my dream to become a vet ever, since I was little. I also have a bird who is living a long nice life, taking care of her has shown me how to stick to a schedule and to watch out for any hidden details, since birds hide their sickness well, because of that it has also helped me identify if anything is wrong with my dogs. We have Paisley (9), Olly or Oliver (6), and Pepper (3). They are all extremely kind and do great with other dogs. They are Cavalier, King Charles spaniels. Paisley has had 3 litters and Pepper 2. Because of their litters I have experience delivering the puppies and taking care of them until they go to their new home, if you want to see if this is true, you can go to my moms website “Turners Cavilers” on Facebook and you’ll be able to see the lil’ cuties! I am available any time of the day! My job just recently closed down and I’m a college student so I’ve been looking for jobs that could help my exercise and work from home so I will be able to do my assignments! But if anything came up I would be able to let you know immediately and work with you to see how we can still come to an agreement! How I care for my pets is we have a water bowl inside and out, we feed them at very specific times to avoid them gaining to much weight and take them on occasional walks, the backyard is fenced with green grass (besides a patch of dead grass where the dogs have made a path) there’s is plenty of shade in the backyard if your dog tends to get warm easily, but most of the time we keep our dogs inside and have a huge dog bed for all three of them. If your pet requires it we do have dog bowls and I can keep out for your pet. We also have crates if this is something that you want for your pet if I ever offer overnight stay. Our three dogs are extremely playful and friendly and enjoy meeting other dogs. We also have our own grooming station in our garage that we use for our own dogs.
About: !!!!BOOKED OUT FOR HOUSE SITTING SERVICES UNTIL JULY 13 2025!!! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, quite literally. I had 13 childhood dogs, as I grew up they grew older with me and unfortunately most passed away. Since moving to New Mexico 3 years ago I found myself on a dilema, I miss my fluffy friends. I chose to provide services for rover and through the years I’ve gotten to take care of many different breeds, small dogs, big dogs, puppies, and senior dogs and it has probably been one of the best decisions I’ve ever taken. I’ve realize that the old saying of “a dog is a man’s best friend” is 100% real. A couple months ago I started co-parenting a mini schnauzer with my sister and it has made me realize how much I enjoy being around these fluffy friends, spending time with them, and entertaining them. These beautiful creatures provide unconditional love and affection. For us our pets are just a chapter in our life, but from them we are the whole book ❤️ and as a sitter I’m here to provide help and shadow your routine for the times you have to be away from them, providing them a big amount of time, love, comfort, and joy! I became a certified trainer 4 years ago. Im mainly a homebody, while I do go to school from Monday- Thursday I spend around 16-20 hours of the day at home guaranteed! While I do work from home, I have a small part time job that requires me to be away from home 4-5 hours a day only in the weekends Im a dependable and trustworthy sitter! As I shadow your routine and follow your schedule, I get to cherish your pet, play with them, take them on walks, make them feel comfortable and loved.
About: Now serving the greater Albuquerque Area! To all of my Utah clients, I miss your pups 💜 I moved to Albuquerque in September 2023. When I moved to Utah, by myself, in January 2023, I got lonely and craved animal connection, so I began with Rover. It has been such a great thing in my life. I hope to continue my services in New Mexico. I now have 2 pups of my own, but my partner cares for them when I am sitting. I will never bring them to a sit unless prior meeting and permission of the owners. Bloopers and Scub are young, big, lover boys with a lot of energy. They LOVE other dogs. Sophie, my senior pup, had to be put down before I moved to Utah. I cared for her heart and kidney failure for 3 years. I am experienced with senior pups and can handle all the way down to puppies, too. I love cats. I am also a trained bird handler. I have pet sit for my professors and coworkers before, from hunting lab puppies to senior Maltese. Since moving to Utah at the beginning of the year, I have house sat, done drop-ins, and walks.

I can check/walk in morning, lunch, dinner and through the night if needed. Week days and weekends. I have extensive experience giving pets drugs and other heath needs.

“My doggie is a shiba inu (his name is Hawk) who is very particular and has quite the personality. He does not allow people he doesn't know get to close to him or pet him. Usually it will take weeks for Hawk to warm up to someone. But with Juan he warmed up to him after the first walk AND he let's him pet him. And I thinks that's great and a testament of his treatment to the doggies.”

“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.”

“Joshua has a great way about him and the big yard/environment felt right for my pup. When I was away Joshua’s photos gave me relief that my dog was having a great time. Will definitely go back!”

“Jamie & Patrick H were absolutely wonderful with my dogs while I was away. This was my first time using Rover, and they made the entire experience easy and stress-free from start to finish. They took excellent care of my pups and communicated with me every day, sending updates that really helped put my mind at ease while I was away . It was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I will definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring sitters.”

“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.”

“Jamie did an excellent job dog-sitting! She was very communicative, kind, and responsible. She took excellent care of our dog and we would use her again and recommend her highly.”

“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!”

“My dogs were clearly happy and well taken care of. Usually they are a little salty with me when I pick them up from boarding, but they acted no different than when I get home from work. Im so glad to have chosen Thomas and Matthew!”

“Leslie and James were so great to Angel. When I dropped him off I knew my little dog was in good hands. Leslie was very communicative on how he was doing in their home, and she even sent me pictures of him happily getting along with their sweet dogs. I am so grateful for Leslie and James taking him last minute. I know in the future we have a safe option for boarding Angel ☺️ 🐶”

“My dog Ariel had a very good stay at Mike’s. She is usually scared of men and prone to separation anxiety. She felt right at home with Mike! Communication with him was easy, his home is great to host and the neighborhood seems safe for dog walks. I would trust him with my precious companion again!”

“Benjamin was so great with our girl Juniper! She can be a bit on the nervous side and he was really good about going at her pace and keeping us posted on everything. Will definitely be using again!”

“We are grateful we found Doug to care for our Ruby. He took her on daily walks and provided us with frequent updates and pictures. He even took her on a hike to the Sandias! It was as if she went on a vacation too! He was also very flexible with scheduling which we so appreciated. Thanks 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...”

“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”


“I left my dog with Kristle for two weeks for a trip to Europe. Kristle took excellent care of my dog, Lady. And she went out of her way to email me fun pictures of Lady. It was so nice to be on vacation overseas and know my dog was staying in a nice home.”

“Celine always takes the best care of Ellie! We have complete peace of mind knowing Ellie is in such good hands. It’s clear how much Celine loves and cares for the dogs she watches, and Ellie is always happy and excited to be there. We truly appreciate the attention, kindness, and excellent care she provides.”
