“Shell is amazing! We went an 8 day vacation to FL and left Maverick with her and she sent us photos every day of how he was doing, along with a video. The smile on his face in each photo and his wagging tail in the video confirmed that we made the right choice! We’ll definitely be bringing Maverick back to Shell! We are also so appreciative of her family as they take such great care of Maverick, also. We’re so glad that we found Shell!”

“Celine is absolutely incredible and I'm so glad I found her. Azuki loved her from the first moment they met. While we were away, Celine checked in with a picture each day and I could tell my pup was happy and content. My pup is on a pretty high maintenance diet and Celine managed it without difficulty. When I picked up Azuki, she was happy and energetic and that has continued since we have been home. I will definitely have Celine sit for Azuki again! Thank you for the love you showed my pup, Celine.”

About: I have dealt with every personality. Whether the pet is shy, elderly, anxious, or energetic, I can adapt. I also give every pet the love it deserves. Walks and cuddles. Not just “watching” but truly engaging. I am currently enrolled in school, so I have plenty of time to watch and care for your little guys. On weekends I am available all day and on weekdays I am available after 2:30pm. I care for pets by keeping their routine the same, giving them lots of love, playtime, and attention. I follow all instructions, keep their space clean, and send photo updates so you always feel comfortable and informed.
“Savanah is absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my diabetic cat and his brother. I returned to a spotless house and two well-looked-over cats. She was very communicative the whole time she stayed at my place which gave me ease of mind during my time away. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
“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!!”
“"Kat" B. provided an incredible experience when she took care of my two cats and the house. The cats loved spending time with her, and she followed all the instructions and did extra tasks without being asked. The "Kat" has the special animal magic due to her knowledge and experiences with a diverse population of animals!. I would not hesitate to contact her to take care of your pets. You will be happy with what she can provide for your most important family members. Thank you for all you did Kat, and I look forward to seeing you again.”

About: Hi, I’m Mary! I’m a Registered Dental Hygienist who pet sits on the side because I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals. Providing loving, reliable care for your pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’m grateful for every opportunity to help families with their furry companions. I do have a busy schedule during the week, so if you are booking with me and need specific services, times, or hours, please be sure to communicate those details when making your booking request. My time is just as valuable as yours, and I’ve found that the app doesn’t always clearly communicate exact expectations. For example, a booking may show a broad time frame, such as 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, without specifying how long you actually need me there. To make sure we’re all on the same page and that I can provide the best care possible, please include any specific scheduling needs or expectations in your booking request. For safety and comfort, I am never alone during visits. My family members help me at all times. During a meet-and-greet, you may meet my sister, Abigail, or my partner, Coral. Depending on the situation, especially if a booking may be more challenging, my uncle may also assist. He always accompanies my sister when helping. We believe in maintaining a safe, comfortable environment for everyone involved, including your pets. Thank you so much for trusting me with your pets and for giving me the opportunity to care for them. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! We can always talk when you are wanting to book with me, and we can see if our days will be able to correlate so that it works for your needs. I always show the animals love and just give them time to warm up. Most of the times my clients leave me notes and tasks to accomplish while they are away.
“Rita was amazing! I have a diabetic cat, and this was the first time I left her with a sitter. Rita completely put my mind at ease. She sent me twice daily updates and pictures. She was knowledgeable about giving my cat her insulin injections, and she took perfect care of my cat while I was gone. I 100% recommend Rita, and I look forward to booking with her again.”
About: I gained hands-on experience working with cats while employed at an animal shelter, where I provided individualized care based on each cat’s unique needs. This included feeding, cleaning, administering basic care, monitoring behavior and health, and offering enrichment and socialization. Through this experience, I developed patience, strong observation skills, and a deep understanding of how to support cats with different temperaments, ages, and medical or emotional needs.
“Erika, Christian, and their pup Booker treated my miniature schnauzer like a member of their family! She stayed there for 4 nights recently and had the best time she's ever had while "on vacation"! Erika constantly sent pics and videos and truly gave my puppy the 5-star treatment. I would trust her with Piper anytime and feel so grateful to have found her!”
About: I was always feeding neighborhood cats in my childhood and would spend a lot of time outside loving on them. When I was 15 my parents finally allowed me a kitty of my own and I instantly fell in love with being a cat owner! I owned my first kitty when

“First time using a pup sitter, so definitely first time using Rover. It went great, especially since it was a last minute needed booking. Michael was just great with Rio! Thank you, Michael”
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.
“Brian has a calm energy that the dogs immediately respected, and felt safe with a confident leader! Thank you Brian for your selfless service for us to go to our seminar and have no worries at all:)”
“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.”
“Brian was amazing, accommodating, so good to shenzi. She was completely comfortable with him and the new fur friends she met. We will use Brian again when we are in town.”
“Brandi is so nice and caring with her dogs and was the same with my dog, Buttercup. She helped make the introductions between Buttercup and her dogs go smoothly by slowly letting them meet each other. She sends pictures and updates throughout the day to keep you updated on the fun times your dog is having. Buttercup had a great time playing with Charlie and Jasmine. I was very reassured when I dropped Buttercup off and was very happy when I picked her up and saw how happy she was. Would definitely recommend Brandi to anyone looking for a safe, fun dog sitting experience.”
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).
“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.”
“Shell is great! Wonderful with dogs and my two little guys, who are very cautious around new people, really liked her and her house! Definitely bringing my dogs back”

I’m currently working a part-time job at a holistic and grooming pet food store, and can care for pets during the weekdays while I’m off Sundays, Monday, Tuesday, and every other Wednesday from the mornings to the evenings. I care for them by loving on them and spoiling them like they are my own, fot example my rottie that’s at home. I have so much love for animals that it is my career field after all. I will feed them, walk them, make sure they get daily exercise, and play time, as well as seniors if they have any severe joint problems I can help massage and make them feel better.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child. Over the years I’ve grown to know more and more about animals and it has helped me care for my own fur babies. I’ve had a few family friends and family members count on me to check in on their pets or sit them when they’re not able to be home and they’ve continued to count on me. I also have experience caring for exotic animals. Anyone who needs care for those pets can message me as well! ** Please feel free to ask me about my coupon code for $20 off your first booking on rover :) ** I’m working part time and go to school full time so I have plenty of time for your pets on weekends and in between my work schedule! I have a fenced yard and 2 pups to keep your pet company. I also have a guinea pig who stays in his own room! I have two extra bowls I can provide if needed and an extra large crate to fit dogs up to approximately 100 pounds
About: Dogs of all ages are welcome here! My wife Mandi and I are lifelong dog lovers who provide a safe, fun, and loving home for your furry family member. What sets us apart is our experience caring for dogs through every stage of life. Last year, we said goodbye to our beloved 17-year-old black Labrador, Bella. Caring for her in her senior years taught us patience, compassion, and the importance of individualized care. We are comfortable caring for puppies, active adult dogs, and seniors who may need medication, extra potty breaks, or a slower pace. We are also Airbnb Superhosts and understand the importance of trust, communication, and providing exceptional care. In addition to caring for our own dogs, we've been pet sitting for friends and family for years and genuinely love welcoming animals into our home. We share our home with our two friendly dogs, Holly and Philbert. To ensure everyone's safety and comfort, all guest dogs must be friendly and non-aggressive. We require a meet and greet to make sure all dogs are a good fit and comfortable together. You can expect plenty of love, attention, updates, and photos during your dog's stay. Our goal is simple: treat every dog like family and give you peace of mind while you're away. Pet care is already a big part of our daily life! I am home full-time, so dogs in my care receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and affection throughout the day. My wife Amanda and I take our dogs, Holly and Philbert, on daily walks and make sure they get lots of exercise and affection. On weekends, we love taking them on adventures such as hikes, trips to the park, dog-friendly outings, and play dates. If your dog enjoys being active, we'll do our best to keep them engaged while also respecting their individual energy level and routine. Whether your pup is an energetic explorer or a laid-back couch companion, we'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. Dogs staying in our home have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel like part of the family. We have a dedicated dog room equipped with a dog door that provides access to a secure outdoor dog run, as well as a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and exercise. For cleanliness and safety, guest dogs have access to the tiled areas of our home, including the dedicated dog space and common areas, which are easy to keep clean and comfortable for everyone. My wife Amanda and I are experienced dog owners, and I am home full-time, so dogs receive plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. We follow each dog's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, crate routines, and any special care instructions. For everyone's safety, all dogs are required to complete a meet-and-greet to ensure they are a good fit with our dogs, Holly and Philbert, and our home environment. We do not leave dogs unattended for extended periods. The only exceptions would be brief errands when necessary, and dogs will always be safely secured and comfortable during that time. We provide regular updates and photos throughout your dog's stay so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, loved, and well cared for.
“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.”
“Jamie was very friendly and communicated with me during the stay. She has young kids in the home for playtime with my small dog along with a friendly poodle of her own.”
“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”

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’ve cared for my own pets my entire life, including both small and large dogs, as well as kittens and adult cats. I’m patient, and comfortable with different breeds, ages, and routines. I treat every pet like family and focus on keeping them calm, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’m a college student at home for summer so I have tons of free time! I’m available to per watch and dog walk almost anytime in the day! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible so pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime, walks, and affection, and receive any special care they need. I keep the home tidy, respect the space, and provide updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, from Yorkies to German Shepherds. Providing the love and care to other dogs while you’re away is my priority! To give you the peace of mind your fur baby is both physically and mentally stimulated during our time together. I am very active, love going on hikes and finding new parks in the area! I am in the end of my surgical residency making my schedule relatively flexible. While I am unable to have a dog of my own full time, I can care and love for others in the mean time! While I do live in an apartment, there is a park with walking trails right across the street that I walk daily. Staying active is an essential part of my life!
About: Hello! I’m Miranda and I love animals, I have volunteered at my local animal shelter for almost a year! I helped with dog walking, socializing the dogs with people and with community events to help the light shine over our animals. I’m going to be a substitute teacher for this next school year! During the summer I am wanting to stay active and make new furry friends along the way. I’ll be available during the weekends when the school year is in session, but I am also committed to work a schedule after school hours as well. I have a fenced yard and some sections of my yard have a separate fence so my small dog can explore without being close to the road. She has her own car seat on my vehicle. Volunteering at the animal shelter has helped me specialize in high anxiety dogs and very active big dogs.
About: I’ve taken care of my senior dog for four years before she passed away. This includes feeding, bathing, brushing, meeting her potty needs and walking. I also pet sit for two dogs when their owner is out of town. I work for a restaurant during the morning or afternoon shift for roughly 6 hours. I can work in between those times and I only have one shift a day. (Some days are completely open!) I am very good about respecting spaces and following directions. I usually walk dogs twice a day around the neighborhood; however, I will follow whatever directions are given. I love giving attention to pets, especially dogs that need some extra care. Adopting my dog as a senior gave me a special love for all senior dogs!
About: LATEST PUPDATE (MAY 2026): Starting the month of June, I'll be able to start accepting drop in & sitting requests again. Boarding requests (in our home) are still unavailable at this time, as our pup continues to focus on his rehab & recovery. We will update this accordingly & hopefully be back to hosting your furry loved ones as soon as we can. Thank you for your patience & understanding. Hi there, I'm Erika! A true dog lover at heart & someone who enjoys the outdoors just as much! I love going hiking with my furry friends or taking them on outings to some of Abq's nicest parks, ice cream joints, dog friendly stores/events, & much more. I enjoy keeping my friends active unless they're more of a couch potato, in which we could certainly cuddle up & watch Animal Planet or Paw Patrol all night. I grew up with several rescue dogs, from small to large, and breeds of all sorts. Therefore, I learned the responsibility of caring for and walking dogs at a very young age. I've also spent a lot of time fostering dogs from puppies to seniors & the shy timid ones that just need a little time to warm up. I'm a big lover of the working breeds & understand the special kind that they are. Regardless, I love anything with fur & paws & I treat all dogs with the love & care just as they are my own.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and understand the responsibility that comes with caring for them. I currently walk my own dog several miles a day, often totaling a couple hundred miles each month. I’m comfortable handling large breeds, high-energy dogs, and maintaining steady, structured walks. As an Army veteran, I bring reliability, discipline, and consistency to every visit. I take pride in being punctual, dependable, and respectful of your home. I understand that trust is everything when someone is caring for your dog, and I don’t take that lightly. For friendly, social dogs, I also offer the option of bringing my well-mannered Sheepadoodle, Curly, along for walks at no extra charge. He’s great with people and other dogs and can provide positive companionship and added exercise. This is always optional and only done with your approval after a proper introduction to ensure a good fit. Whether it’s an exercise-focused walk or a drop-in visit, your dog will be treated with patience, structure, and genuine care. Curly is with me almost 100% of the time — he’s truly part of my daily routine and always close by. We walk every day, and I make sure he gets consistent exercise, structure, and attention. He’s on a Hill’s Science Diet prescription food due to urinary tract issues, so I’m very strict about his diet to prevent kidney stones and keep him healthy. Managing his care has made me very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and health monitoring. Because of that, I understand how important consistency is. During walks, I keep dogs on a secure leash and harness, monitor them closely for traffic, other dogs, or hazards, and adjust pace to each dog’s comfort and energy level. At home, I supervise interactions with Curly carefully, ensure doors and gates are always closed, and separate dogs when needed to maintain a calm, safe environment. I provide daily walks, structured routine, and plenty of attention. I follow each owner’s feeding schedule carefully and stick strictly to any dietary instructions, as I understand how important that is from managing my own dog Curly’s prescription diet.
About: I grew up around dogs and horses. I love animals and getting outside. I am very attentive to the needs of pets and love working with special needs pets. I currently work at Stone Age Climbing Gym and am building a business in yoga and movement practice. I am flexible and love getting pets out during the day and hours that make it convenient for my clients. I offer whatever services are in need for a given pet and person and work with my clients to develop a plan of what that looks like. I send check ins and other updates to make you feel more comfortable.
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 love animals and have taken care of dogs and cats of many different kinds for 15 years. As an owner of both a dog (Beary) and a cat (Fufu), I understand the different needs of both. I’m very attentive to feeding schedules, mood changes, and exercise needs. What sets me apart: Full Overnight Availability: I have reliable support for my own pets at home, which allows me to stay at your house overnight and focus entirely on your pets without needing to leave. Professional Trust: I am a regular, trusted dog walker for my therapist and neighbors in the local area. Observation Skills: I closely monitor behavior and eating habits to ensure every pet is healthy and happy. Clean & Respectful: As a student, I am quiet and organized. I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I have a very structured and organized routine. Because I am taking mostly online courses, my schedule allows me plenty of time for drop-in or full time visits, and I have reliable support at home for my own pets, which gives me the freedom to stay overnight at your house without any distractions. I am punctual, dedicated, and stay highly communicative with regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. I truly believe pets are family, and I take their care seriously, especially when it comes to patience, routine, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also a regular dog walker for my therapist and several neighbors in my local area, where I am known for being reliable and safety focused. When I’m in your home, I provide a calm, steady presence. I follow your house rules and routines exactly as you like them, and I prioritize keeping a clean and safe environment for your fur babies. My goal is to give you genuine peace of mind while you're away.
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: I don’t really have any restrictions on what I can handle, I’m used to taking care of elderly dogs, and having to cater to specialized diets or even mobility issues. But I have also cared for very energetic puppies, and middle-age dogs who just need to get out of the house or have a little companionship. I am a student athlete however, I do tend to have a lot of free time in the midday to afternoon range and on the weekends. I have two other very friendly dogs, and a large fenced in yard that is also close to a lot of other walking paths and parks. There is also plenty of space in my house in order to for dogs to be kept separately if they are not friendly, or cater to other needs such as crates.
