She sends home a review about the animal’s stay and even a bag of gourmet doggy treats! I feel 100% at ease when Riley is with Karen. I look foreword to his next visit!”

“Rosalia cared for our dog Winnie for 3 weeks while we took a dream vacation. It was pretty hard for us to feel good about leaving Winnie for so long, but Rosalia made it easy with daily updates. It was clear to us that Winnie was having a great time, which enabled us to have a good time on our trip. Thanks Rosalia!”

“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!”

“I absolute loved her! She made me feel so comfortable with my two small babies. She gave me constant updates and pictures of them everyday. I appreciate her making it easy for me to leave my babies for a whole week! Thanks again”

“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”


“Rebecca is so kind, I would recommend, 10/10! Can definitely tell her love for animals, so you can leave your pet with her with no worries. She sent pictures of my dog throughout her stay, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! (:”

“I recently boarded my dog for the first time in the 2 years that I’ve had her. Melissa was very flexible with pickup/dropoff and kept me updated daily with pictures of my pup having the time of her life! Couldn’t be happier! Thank you Melissa!”

“Josie, Peter & Paco treated my pup so well while I was out of town! They were super flexible and made my dog feel right at home- I’ve really never seen him so comfortable in someone else’s space! I got plenty of updates and my dog is tuckered out from all of his playtime. Definitely will be booking with them again next time we are out of town, so glad to have found them through Rover.”
“Celine was great with our dog Ellie. We were updated daily on how she was doing along with pictures! We will book Celine again in the future. Thank you!”

“Savannah took really good care of Maple. She was patient, understanding of her unique needs and helped fixed a nutrient problem we didn't realize was an issue. Maple came back "smiling" with the zoomies. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Jacqulyn is a great sitter! She sent lots of pics and my pups (one of whom is a senior citizen ?) were happy and healthy when I picked them up. I will definitely book with her again!”

“I thought Maellen was terrific. A few days before our cruise, Lili, our corgi had to be fitted with "the cone of shame" for a skin condition. I contacted Maellen to see if this would create a problem and offered to find another sitter but Maellen said it would be fine. She treated the skin condition twice a day took excellent care of Lili for the 7 day cruise. Lili obviously had a great time and was in excellent condition. She did not seem to be in a big hurry to leave so I know she liked it. THANK YOU, MAELLEN.”

“Mark was so great with Skeeter! Skeeter needs TLC being blind & elderly, Mark showed great patience with him. He kept us updated with pictures & videos. He truly loves dogs. We will definitely use him again! Thank you Mark!”

“We could not be more grateful to have found Marlena for our first River experience! Especially on a last minute notice! Leaving our doggos with someone new is always a bit stressful, but she instantly won them (& us) over & treated our dogs like her own. Throughout the stay (overnight plus additional hours), Marlena was incredibly sincere & honest with us about how our dogs were doing. She provided detailed updates, photos & videos, we so appreciated her open communication. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such a safe, capable, & loving hands. Our dogs just loved her so much. We will absolutely be booking with Marlena again!”

“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”

“Nicole took very good care of our two year old cat while we were away for a week. She gave us regular updates and photos and took time to play with our cat when she was over to feed her. We came home to a very happy kitty :) thank you Nicole!!”

“Karen is a joy to work with. She is obviously an animal lover. She certainly has the. ‘Magic touch’ when it comes to making our Emit kitty feel comfortable and loved while we were away. I really appreciated the photos and updates daily. I’ll definitely booking Karen next time we’re going out of town. Thank you Karen for your excellent care. We appreciate you.”


“Jennifer was fantastic with our two cats and made them feel very comfortable while we were gone for roughly 5 days. One of our cats has pretty bad anxiety but she made them feel companionship and peace. Jennifer was flexible and made the best of some occasional circumstances outside of her control too, definitely would strongly recommend!!”


“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.”


“Brooke was wonderful with our kitty! She was a new kitty, so we were a bit nervous about leaving her, but everything went beautifully! Brooke played with her and sent pictures every day, so we knew she was being stimulated, looked out for, and cared for. Thank you so much, Brooke! Highly recommend!!!”

“Savannah has always done a wonderful job with Ensley. Ensley is a very skittish cat and is afraid of most people in general. Every time Savannah does drop in visits she goes above and beyond. Supra et ultra.”


“Tessa was great when she watched my cats. She gave them plenty of love and sent me plenty of photos. She was also very accommodating when I asked her to visit more often then we had planned because of a surprise visit from maintenance in my building. Highly recommend.”

About: People laugh when I say "dogs are my only friends." Started in 2022, I never imagined this would become my full time job. Ive grown up around animals my entire life, from horses, cows, chickens, goats, fish, dogs and cats, so its truly an honor to be able to pursue something I love and care for so deeply. I have lots of experience in specialized care, from potty training, to senior care. My goal is to always make the dogs feels like home, and ensuring small controlled environments for a stress free stay, all while building their confidence, to maintain a happy healthy dog. I live on an acre fenced in with 5ft high piped fence all the way around. The yard is very secure. There is lots of room for dogs to explore and play. The property is shaded by a variety of trees. We have a mini swimming pool setup to cool the paws off during the hot summer months. We have a large concreted shaded porch. It is very cozy and welcoming. I do this full time as mentioned above, so I am around dogs pretty much 24/7, but some other passions I have is gardening. When you pull up to the property during spring and summer you will see that I have flowers hanging on every post on the porch. I also have a garden in the back fenced off from the dogs that I tend too. We also have chickens! (Dont worry they are completely safe and fenced in from the dogs and any other predator that would want to reach them.) I am licensed and insured as well as Pet CPR/First Aid certified. Some services I offer: In my home: Daycare and overnight pet sitting. At your home: Drop in Care. Please reach out to me if you have any questions! I do pet daycare and boarding full time. So you can imagine just how much of my daily life is revolved around dogs. I spend a majority of my days with them. I have a fenced secure yard, 5ft tall piped fence all the way around. My goal for in home sitting is to try and keep their routine the same as much as possible. We also have cameras setup and if we’re not at the home, the dogs are still monitored.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Valencia
“Miranda was great! This was our first time leaving Remy with someone, and he was very nervous at first, but she did a great job calming him down. A few hours later, she sent us videos of him playing with the other dogs, which made us happy to see.”

“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!”

“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.”

“Lauren was great. She greeted us on arrival and introduced her dog to ours. She kept us updated during the day by sending us photos of how our pup was doing. We would definitely use Lauren again when visiting Albuquerque.”

“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!”


“Toast had the best day at daycare with Kathy and the crew! She took the time to make my slow to warm up pup feel right at home. I really appreciated the pupdates thought out the day and the fact she got to go out on a hike (a favorite activity of hers). Would definitely recommend and Toast can’t wait for her next adventure day!”

About: I’ve dog sat for most of my life, I have a love for all dogs and deeply believe dogs are family and should be treated and cared for as such I currently work full time on the weekends so I am usually off on weekdays and would love some company cuddling on the couch or on walks. My partner usually has off on the weekends so someone will always be home to care for your loved one(s). We use this account together. I have a fenced yard and almost a half acre to run around. I have two beagles and a little yorkie that will keep your pup company.
“This was the first time I have left Horace with a sitter and I am so pleased how well it went. Celeste responds immediately to texts and sends photos of how the day is going. So appreciated. I would send Horace to Celeste’s for the day in a heartbeat!”

“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.”

“First time using Rover and Shell provided a great experience for me and my dog! She was very responsive to messages during pick up and drop off. My dog was super happy by the end of the day and had a great time running around with some of the other dogs. He was more than happy to come back for another day of fun a couple days later, making a beeline for the house whereas during the Meet and Greet he was much more reserved and cautious. Happy and tired dog at the end of the day makes our nights easier, and we look forward to more fun times at Shells daycare soon!”

About: I mostly have experience with medium to larger dogs. I love going on walks so I will take pets along for the journey. I grew up with bulldogs and I’ve personally owned German Shepards and Huskies. I am currently in between jobs and preparing for a certification test for signed language interpreting. I have plenty of free time for pets and love to get out and about like going for walks, hikes and enjoying the sun. I have a private small patio with many dogs parks in my apartment complex. Also close to my apartment is a golf course that is a clear and safe walk for fur babies. I can crate your dog if needed (: they are allowed on furniture to make them feel like home!
“I could tell Jubilee was very comfortable with her stay with Brittany - she watched her for two doggy day care days- Jubilee went up to her on the second day, which is a really good indicator for me. I will use it again!! Thank you for taking such great care of my puppy!”

“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!”

“Mark, did an amazing job with our first timers. He checked with us frequently and it seemed our dogs loved it and where comfortable with him. For our dogs, it was there first time at another persons home and for us as well. Marks, patience was and understanding was greatly appreciated.”

“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.”

About: I have grown up with big dogs since I was little as well as 2 cats! I’ve been with huskies and pomskies as well as labradors and shepherd dogs! I can take care of high energy and low energy dogs! I love cats as well! I know their temperament and how to approach them! My friends have had pit bulls which I do not discriminate against! I have helped with raising puppies and taking care of sick dogs, I promise to treat your pet with the utmost respect and care as if they were my own child! I am working part time at Starbucks and I work on Wednesday’s Thursday's and Sunday's, other than that I have morning classing Monday-Friday and I am good! I do online school so my schedule is very flexible for leaving in the mornings, and sometimes afternoons! At my home we have a big back yard and it is fenced in, we let our animals inside the house as well as outside, I don’t do pet care in my home because we have 4 big dogs and two cats and that would just be stressful on our dogs and cats as well as the dogs or cats I’m taking care of!
“Karen is a caring dog enthusiast! My 2 Shih Tzus look forward to their mid-day break while we are at work. Karen sends cute pictures of my fur babies that just brighten my work day! I will use Karen many more times!”

About: I’ve been around pets growing up and they’ve made the family complete. When anyone needs care for their animals on trips they call me ☺️ Im a full time worker but dedicated to care for your fur baby.I do have 3 days completely free I’m here for your pet for your busy weekend! I have a fully fenced yard and my own pets to keep yours company :) also I have two children who adore pets. I have the space to crate your pet if needed.
About: I love all dogs of all breeds, I have taken care of all sizes and breeds for 5 years on and off. Animals are life. I'm currently working at home. Which allows me to be with my dogs every day and come and go as needed. I'm very flexible with the animals. I have a large fenced yard both front and back. I can be home at all times if needed for any reasons. My 2 dogs are very friendly.
About: I absolutely love dogs, and will treat your baby like mine. I got into this because finding good care for my dog is such a stressful experience as my tolerance for risk is extremely low. I am a nervous dog mom and will care for your pets like they are my own, they will be safe and secure with me and you will get as many updates as you would like. I’m available for boarding on the weekends as well as from Tuesday- Wednesday night. I work in ABQ as well so if you need someone to stay at your house during the week while you are on vacation I am happy to do that as well. In clients home I want to make sure I have a good understanding of their routine and behavior. Having a high level overview of your dog will help me care for them. A former roommates dog had a thing for people on skateboards so when we were on walks, I knew I needed to hold him tight as they were passing. Understanding your dogs quirks will help me care for them.
“She has been coming to my house for 3 days now and she is always wonderful and on time !!! My Cygna loves her ! ❤️ She gets really happy to see her from day 1. 10 out of 10 I would recommend!”


About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats and am confident in providing attentive, reliable care. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being, and I strive to provide dependable care so owners can feel confident while they are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I currently care for two kittens and a puppy, so my schedule includes feeding, playtime, walks, training, and cleaning throughout the day. Because I’m used to balancing the different needs of young pets, I’m organized, attentive, and consistent with routines. This makes it easy for me to provide reliable, high-quality care for additional pets during the week. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision, regular feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I follow established routines and provide age-appropriate care, including training support for puppies and enrichment for kittens. In a client’s home, I respect their space and closely follow all care instructions to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. This includes feeding, walks, litter box or waste cleanup, playtime, medication if needed, and regular updates to owners. My goal is to maintain consistency, reduce stress, and ensure each pet feels secure and well cared for.
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 have house sat for all kinds of pups from labs to yorkies, goldendoodles to bulldogs. I work a very flexible full-time, telework option, job. 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. I can do any form of exercise or travel needed. I will always double check doors are locked and secured.
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and entertain their pets. I currently work full time but am available 24/7 on the weekends. During the week, I can walk/feed/play morning and evening around my work schedule. I understand all pets are different and that their needs vary. I am flexible and willing to accommodate any special needs that your pet may have.
About: I pet sat dogs when I was younger and cats for years. I have more time now that my kiddo is an adult and would love to give your babies a lot of attention. 🐶 😺 Please note that my rates are for stays under 2 weeks and include 1 walk per day for dogs. I am happy to lower rates for longer stays (over 2 weeks), and happy to add additional walks for an additional fee. Thanks for considering me! 🐕 I currently work from home Sunday, Monday and Tuesday with a LOT of flexibility. I am available overnight 7 days per week with little notice and can adapt to your pets needs and routines. I can care for pets in your home and follow your rules and your pets needs as directed. I'm an adult with a grown kiddo who also loves animals and can give extra attention! ❤️

“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.”

“Savannah was great with my Charli. Daily photos were sent to update me. My pooch is still a puppy and Savannah was patient, understanding and even taught Charli how to go up stairs. ?”

“Absolutely 5⭐️. Communication was great. Pictures and videos helped set our minds at ease while we were away. My dogs are large (Great Dane and a Bernadoodle) and not everyone can handle them. We will certainly use Leslie and James again!”

“Wendy was great. She sent me pics of him, gave me updates of the situation, and asked if there was anything else she could do to keep Almond comfortable. Wendy let me know immediately that Almond started howling in the middle of the night. I wasn't sure what was going on since he never did that at home. My initial thought was he was missing me and home. And because of his age, I believe he got disoriented and lost and couldn't identify where he was at. Wendy did follow the instructions I left and asked if there was anything more she could do. I appreciate Wendy giving Almond the extra care he needed. Thanks again..”
“Ben did an awesome job watching my two boxers. They can be high energy pups and that didn’t seem to bother him at all. They got lots of love, we got lots of pics and would definitely book Ben again.”
