Top rated Galisteo cat sitters

“Stephanie and her husband were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of our cat while we were out of town, and for the first time, we were completely stress-free leaving our cat. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. They were reliable, kind, and clearly love animals. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—highly recommend them!”


“Rhiannon took care of our cats (drop-in visits) while we were away for a few weeks. As before, she was reliable, took great care of the cats, and was an excellent communicator. Her 5 star rating is well deserved!”


About: My family has always had pets so I'm comfortable with everything from cats and dogs to turtles and chickens. Young, old, wild, lazy, medicated, need to be medicated, I've dealt with it all. I've babysat and petsat for a variety of people off the books over the years and haven't had any complaints or issues. I like to send update photos to pet parents since I know leaving the babies with strangers can be a stressful experience. I work at the Lab Monday - Friday, 7-4ish. Otherwise, I'm open for business. Adjustments to my 4 o'clock time can be made with advanced warning. I can drop in or hang out as needed. Let me know. Santa Fe residents: I work at the Lab Monday - Friday, 7-4ish. That is a long stretch when including commute. If your pet needs to be let out for potty breaks or medication during weekdays, please keep this in mind. Like I said I can make adjustments with enough warning. I leave my availability as it is because I occasionally have a client in Los Alamos/White Rock that I can accommodate easier. Rover simply doesn't allow that kind of distinction on the basic settings so I try to be up front here. I can't board unfortunately but I can hang out on your home turf. This tends to be most comfortable for your pet anyway. I can drop in or stay the night, both are fine with me.

About: I’ve been around and had pets my whole life. My personal animals are very well loved and cared for. I’m committed to sharing the same attention, love, & quality care that I have for my furry children for yours as well. Currently I’m available 6am-1pm Sunday through Thursday and Fridays and Saturdays I’m available all day. I have my other job I do during the evenings. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime! I am dedicated to the meticulous needs your pet may need whether that be medication, water, attention, exercise, special dietary needs, treats, pup cups, etc. Whatever the case may be your pet is special and I’m committed to whatever they might need.

“Mel was Amazing with Margaret! They were very understanding when our plans changed and flexible with our schedule. Mel sent an update daily and very communicative! Will definitely book again! 😸”



“This was our first experience using Rover and after meeting Danielle and Joshua we immediately felt at peace that they would be carrying for our dogs. They're isn't really enough good things about the experience and how happy we were. We plan to seek Danielle out again for the next trip and we're so happy to have found such amazing people to care for our fur babies!”


About: Dogs, and all animals, have been an integral part of my life since I was born. I helped to raise 3 wonderful family dogs and one of my own - all whom sadly but lovingly are no longer with us. In MI during high school I started my dog and house sitting business all through word of mouth. That continued after college and has been something I love to do throughout the years. I have experience with training puppies as well as medication administration and support for elderly dogs. I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule to welcome the care of animals into my day. It’s great for all of us to get more walks and cuddles in! I will also listen to what the pet owner feels is best for their pet. We can walk around the neighborhood, go to the dog park, or spend time in the fenced in yard. I am always happy to send photos or messages with updates as needed.

About: I’ve spent a lifetime caring for family pets. Now, an opportunity to professionally help families in need is too good to pass up! As a member of Rover, I will fulfill you/your pet’s needs with care, to the best of my ability and with the utmost transparency. I’m currently working full-time but can devote every day starting at 4 pm for any walking needs. I’m also available for pet sitting — I just need at least 24 hours in advance for scheduling. I’ve always treated pets as members of the family. It’s amazing how well dogs and cats can interact with us if we just pay attention. I have a calm demeanor and am patient with animals. My residence is not good for house sitting but I can travel, can house sit and am very easy to accommodate with any rules you have.

About: Enthusiastic and experienced animal care taker with stellar references. Fear free certified veterinary nurse in Santa Fe NM. Looking forward to assisting you and the needs of your pet! My passion for pet care comes from 10 years as a veterinary technician. Currently, working as a trainer for Assistance Dog of The west. In Santa Fe. I currently do not have room to pet sit in my home. However, I am more than willing to sleepover or provide visit multiple times daily if necessary.


“Carolyn was professional, friendly, and sincere. My cats were comfortable with her, which is alot. One of my cats would not let my mother see her for years, so it was remarkable that my cat let Carolyn pet her on the first visit!”


About: Hello I'm Madeline, and I'm here to care for your pet just as I do for my own! I love cats and dogs alike, and have taken care of many different breeds and personality types over the years. I've yet to find any pet that I can't handle! Your pets will be loved and cared for so you don't have to worry while you are away :) For Boarding: I live on 5 acres of a wonderful pinon paradise, where your dog(s) can play and hike to their heart's content! I take my own pup for 3 walks a day, so yours will get plenty of exercise. And if they don't mind the car, I'm happy to take them to parks and longer hikes if you like! They can sleep in their own bedroom or in a fully furnished cosy workshop if they prefer. I work from home so will give them my full attention 24/7. I pay very close attention to any specific needs for diet, behavior, or whatever special instructions you give. I love to send photos and updates as often as you like, so you can see they are happy and healthy! If it's drop-in visits only, I give my full attention to playing, hugging, entertaining your pets the entire time I'm there. I hate leaving my pets behind while I travel, so I know how to ensure other owners that their pets are cared for as if they were my own :) I currently work my own schedule so can be flexible with whatever your pets needs may be. If they are boarding in my home, they will have 24/7 attention. I own 5 acres with a good portion fenced in if staying at my home. I love energetic hikes and walks and will cater to your dog's fitness level. I take my own cat outdoors on a harness and would be happy to train yours too! Whatever level of care your pet is accustomed to, I will deliver the same while they are in my care.

“Marie quickly responded to my request and set up a meet and greet. With short notice she was able to care for my two pups. Her dog is a total sweetheart as well and they all got along great! I definitely will be requesting Marie’s services again in the near future. 10/10 would recommend!”


About: Allow me to love your pet as if it were my own! I have been a pet sitter for over ten years now and I have watched anything from cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, birds, ferrets, snakes to chickens and then some. I have also worked as professional dog walker for an extended period of time. I have experience with overnights. I have experience with drop in visits. I have experience with senior animals, medicine administration and round the clock care. I have volunteered in a professional vet facility and took four years of pre vet tech classes through out my high school career. My house is no longer pet free and I am unfortunately not able to host any new fuzzy friends. Thanks for stopping by and I cannot wait to meet you! I'm regularly available Wednesday thru Saturday and open to making exceptions if your needs fall outside my scheduled availability. We can work it all out! I always set up initial meet and greets to ensure we'll be a great fit. Additionally, I provide quick, respectful and open communication from start to finish.

About: Hello! I am 21 years old and have owned no less than 3 dogs at a time for my entire life. I currently own dogs, a cat, and a few different reptiles. I’ve been working a full-time job for the past 3 years at a doggy daycare where I was the manager as well. I recently decided to leave the doggy daycare industry and create my own animal care business. I have open availability and am ready to meet and care for your family members now! Because I recently left a full-time management job in the doggy daycare industry, I have open availability, although I expect to fill up quickly. I can stay overnight, offer daily feedings and walks, walks or dog park visits only, or whatever your family might need. I am also available for other housesitting tasks like plant watering and home care as part of my offerings. I am available to stay at your house for extended periods of time and also take your pup/s on walks, I am a licensed trainer here in New Mexico so if you would like training, I am happy to do that as well! Working at a daycare has given me lots of experience with routine: feeding, playtime, medical care, etc. Any critters are a friend to me! :)

Kathryn C.
“Kathryn (also known as Ryn) has watched our elderly dog several times. He loves her and so do we! Ryn is a very calm, friendly and loving person. Our 19 1/2 year old dog is now blind, deaf and incontinent; that didn’t stop Ryn’s ability to care for him. We know she provided excellent care because our dog reflected that when we came home. Ryn is so wonderful that she even offered to pick us up at the airport when there were no taxis available. I wouldn’t hesitate at all to highly recommend her for any of your pet’s needs.”
