Pet care experience

Experience from over 70 house sits!

Serving Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and in between! Hi! Our names are DAYL and RAND, and we are a married couple that loves to work as a team. We are 34 and 36 years old, respectively. We have been professionally house and pet sitting since 2018 and have successfully completed over 70 sits! We spent 2018 to 2020 house and pet sitting while living first in New Zealand and then later in Australia. We are non-smokers, vegans, and we love all animals--especially dogs and rabbits! We have enjoyed house/pet sitting over 30 times throughout New Zealand and Australia with all sorts of animals. Our record is looking after 34 animals in one sit on a hobby farm/animal sanctuary on the North Island of New Zealand! Back stateside, we have sat extensively in Colorado, New Mexico (primarily in and around Santa Fe), and Nevada. We own a home in ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO now and we're excited to continue our house and pet sitting career! We're looking for house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in jobs in the greater Santa Fe/Albuquerque area.

Safety, trust & environment

We like to stay true to the pets' regular routines. We are happy to take them on their usual walks, follow feeding and medication schedules, and accommodate any sleeping arrangements the pets are used to. We send regular photo and video updates to pet owners during our stays. During pet sits, we spend as much time in the home with the pets as possible. If they like to play, so do we!

Dayl and Rand were absolutely wonderful! Sent me pictures and videos of my Kitty each day and i felt completely confident that my fur baby was in the best of hands!

Dayl and Rand were amazing with Roger! My husband and I were looking for a new dog sitter to stay at our house and were lucky enough to find these two. Roger (who tends to refuse to go on walks with anyone but us and go on hunger strikes when we're away) went on walks and ate every meal. We came home to a happy pup and a spotless house. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Dayl and Rand took such great care of our sweet angel baby Manny. He was a very happy boy when we got home. We did a meet and greet prior to our trip and they asked all the right questions that I myself didn't even think to mention! They left our home nice and clean and even washed the sheets! We will definitely consider them for our future sitter needs.

We’ve had Dayl and Rand petsit/housesit numerous times over the past year. They are our “go to” petsitters as we know we will return to 3 happy Golden Retrievers who have been well cared for, a clean home and casita and that communication over the time we’ve been gone has been great. We can leave on our trips with the comfort that we can fully trust this young couple to care for our pets & home as we ourselves would. That’s as good as it can get! Five star review!! Kathryn & Richard

Dayl and Randolph did an amazing job with our 3 large dogs who can be a handful. We felt so comfortable with them staying and taking care of them. So happy to have found them.

We would like to know if the animal has any special dietary or medical needs like separation anxiety or phobias. We always like to ask if a dog is good with other dogs, children, and strangers as well.
