“What a wonderful caring person Michelle is! A last minute booking and I felt totally confidant and at ease leaving our two dogs (including a special needs pup) with her. Happy tired dogs- the best!”
“Rupert had another great day, was sound asleep when we picked him up, from being nice and relaxed while staying there all day. Slept like a log and was in a great spirit the next day, that's great dog care.”
“My dog had a great time with Rachel. I received photos throughout the day. Fantastic sitter. And I will be happy to use Rachel again.”
“Katie is heaven sent. We were in town for a week and needed someone to take care of Oliver, (our sensitive 9year old chihuahua mix), for one night. Katie responded and made time to meet Oliver the day before to make him comfortable. Katie is a the closest thing to a dog whisperer we’ve experienced! Thank you Katie!!!”
“We are very happy to have found Kristen to watch our pup Oban while I was at work and my husband was out of town. She lives in close proximity to us and to Fort Marcy. She was accommodating with my early work start time. Oban got good walks in and we got photo updates. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve spent the past 5 years rescued animals, volunteer at shelters, and caring for pets of all kinds.I currently have a 10month old German Shepherd mix who loves playing with all kinds of dogs, kids, and people. Right now, I’m available for full-time pet care on weekends. I work a full-time job during the week but I’ll be fully available for pet care throughout the entire month of July. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and take my dog to the dog park every day. We also go hiking often! I’ll treat your beloved pet like family in your home or mine!☺️ I’m also very flexible with schedule changes or anything!
About: Hi, I'm Eva! I’ve had dogs and been surrounded by pets my whole life. I currently have a 3 year old Portuguese Water Dog, Claude. He craves social time with other dogs (big and small) and demands at least two trips a day to the grassy park down the street. He is very active and loves to hike or run after work when it's cool out. He loves learning new tricks and recently passed his Canine Good Citizen test. I work from home Monday - Friday and have a fenced in yard in the back if the dogs are desperate to get some energy out sooner rather than later! I work Monday - Friday on East Coast hours so am usually done by 3/3:30 to get the dogs out and enjoying the sunshine. I am able to take breaks throughout the day for walks to the park and around the neighborhood. We love to go for a run or hike after work when it is cool out! I am available all day, able to provide excellent communication and attention for your dog. I have a fully fenced in backyard that the dogs can play in anytime they wish.
“Stevvi was great with our paraplegic dog! When we picked him up he seems very comfortable and happy and when we did shoot a message during the day to check on our pup she got back to us within minutes. We absolutely will book with Stevvi again.”
“Joy is a doggie day care legend. She went above and beyond at taking care of my pup. She took him to the park, followed all instructions, and gave him genuine love and care. Will definitely ask for her services when I'm in the area again!”
“Leahlani was awesome! Super responsive with our last minute request and she took great care of kona. She gave detailed feedback as to how Kona did and was available throughout the care experience to text. Would highly recommend!”
“Patris was a wonderful pet sitter to work with during a family trip to Santa Fe. She was prompt with responses and very accommodating on the days when we needed daycare for our pup. She took great care and sent pics/updates throughout the day. We really appreciated her help!”

About: Raised, trained & showed Brittany Spaniels for 25 yrs. Owned rabbits, multiple cats & different dog breeds while living in the country on 20 plus acres. Recently put down my 24 yr old tuxedo shelter cat, "Serenity". I live in an ideal neighborhood close to the plaza, trails & Marcy Community Park for walking your pet. My backyard is enclosed. I very much look forward to meeting & caring for your pet. I have often been told I am "a pet magnet." I am a retired 72 year old single gal so I have lots of time to devote to your pet. I enjoy frequent walks in my neighborhood. Hiking is a possibility if owner agrees. I have an enclosed backyard. I do not have children nor do I smoke. I would walk your pet on a leash frequently & create space & a distance from other dogs. Written instructions would be preferable about your pet.
“Sue was the PERFECT sitter for our pup. She’s sweet, kind, and professional. She’s easy to communicate with and took time for my dog to become comfortable. My dog seemed to love her time there, especially playing with the other sweet dog. We’re so thankful we found Sue to care for our dog.”
“This was our pup’s first experience with a sitter, and Cristina made it a great one for all of us. She even gave us tips for how to spend our time in town. Highly recommend!”
“Althea and Josh were awesome for our baby boy blue. They kept us informed with him and sent great pictures of him. The only draw back was they're location from us tourists. However, we would use them again if and when we come back to Santa fe. Good peeps!!!”
“Britt was perfect. I would request him 100x’s again”

Andrea L.
“Andrea is amazing! She LOVES the dogs and they love her. She is extremely responsible and attuned to them; she has great skill in handling all types of dogs. If a dog barks, pulls, etc., she has the tools to help the situation. I think her biggest asset is how CALM she stays. This helps the dogs feel calm and.m safe themselves. Highly recommend Andrea.”
