“Michelle was incredibly patient and accommodating throughout the booking process. She provided excellent care for my dog, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her 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!

“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.”


“Melinda took amazing care of our senior dog, Doster. He usually hates being away from us, but he was comfortable with her immediately and even went up with tail wagging to say goodbye. They had a successful & fun day, & we’re grateful for the excellent care. :)”


“Abby had a great time with Eliza and Alejandro and came home tuckered after plenty of walks and cuddles. I have them booked again for two different days next week also. I appreciated the photo updates. THANKS!!”


“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!”


About: I was very lucky to grow up in a house with many pets, including many dogs, cats, fish, and birds. I love all types of dogs from tiny shitzus, to the largest Rottweilers. I also love all cats, from the ultra-fluffy cuddlers to the lone-lions. I believe that all animals deserve loving homes and that they are essentially doing their best; and it is us as owners who can show them how to behave, communicate, and love in our hooman world. I have pet-sat for my family and friends many times over the years, and have experience in animal rehabilitation, including dogs and cats with medication needs and injuries. My partner and I have a sweet German Shepherd/Golden Retriever who we’ve raised and trained since she was a puppy, and we have a cuddly rescued turkish angora cat. They mean so much to us! I strive to give other pets the same level of love while their hoomans are away. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule. I’d be available to come feed, play, walk, and hang out with your furry friends at most hours of the day on any day of the week— and would be open to overnight stays as well! Sometimes I travel for work, in which I would let clients know in advance when I am not available. I am an excellent communicator and will be available for calls/texts and updates whenever appropriate. I will make sure to note all client details down so that I do not miss any important routines. If/when we offer boarding or day-care, we have a large fenced backyard for the pupps to play in (supervised). We ask that any dogs we board be cat-friendly, and non-aggressive.

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.


“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!”


“Lysa was fantastic. She was quick to respond to my questions, she was great with my dog, and even gave me a good restaurant recommendation. She also texted me the cutest photo of my dog while he was staying with her. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with her and would absolutely use her again if I'm in the area.”


“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.”


“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!!!”
