Full-time Loving Pet Care

PET SITTING OF SANTA FE: Full-time Loving Pet Care in the Comfort of Your Home WHY PET SITTING OF SANTA FE? Because above all else your cherished pet companions desire precisely that: company! A 55yr old with a homey, grounded, quiet lifestyle, I spend the majority of my time with the animals in the comfort of your home - to the enjoyment of all. Clients know me for great ease and affection for animals. Maybe it is my many years of experience (over 18 years in the Santa Fe area), maybe just an innate understanding of the animals and their needs. Both I believe. It certainly shows in my everyday interactions with them and makes me well-suited for the loving care that your pets deserve. The home entrusted to my care receives conscientious, professional attention. This includes a leave-no-trace ethic. Peace of mind and overall satisfaction with my services have ensured many loyal, consistently returning customers. For the level of services provided, my rates, I believe, are reasonable. BENEFITS FOR YOUR PETS • A 20 hr/day minimum presence is assured (including of course full overnights): thus your pets experience no abandonment issue and remain anxiety-free. • They stay comfortable at all times within their familiar environment. • They receive loving care and attention throughout the day. • I quickly familiarize myself with their individual quirks and needs. • Their customary routine and schedule is effortlessly followed. BENEFITS FOR YOUR HOME • The safety and security of your residence is assured: my presence simply the best crime deterrent there can be. • I hold a leave-no-trace ethic. • My competent attention (non-technical only) ensures its smooth maintenance. WHAT COMES WITH MY PET SITTING Home presence, care, and loving attention for all your pets Feeding, water, medication & supplements, ... Litter box scooping Watering plants Bringing in mail, newspapers, packages A daily walk for your dogs REASONABLE RATES AND POLICY FOR THE LEVEL OF SERVICE PROVIDED Pet sitting services are $100/day, if 1 pet. Each additional pet is $15/day. A 20-30mns daily dog walk is included. An additional walk may be requested at an extra cost of $20. A discount may be given on a per-case basis for stays of over 2 weeks. Meet-and-greet appointment is free-of-charge. Length of stay is calculated by counting days, not overnights. In other words the day of your departure and the day of your return are counted as full days. Cancellation policy: 7 days notice required. After that, 50% of the total fee will be asked in the event of cancellation on your part.

Jean-Philippe was wonderful and took such great care of my dog, Griffin, and my home. Communication was great and I returned to a clean home and a calm, happy dog. Highly recommend!

JP was a true steward in taking care of my dogs, my home and the property while I was away for 2 weeks. I’ll definitely hire him again to stay and live on my pups!

Jean-Philippe took excellent care of our two large dogs, the house, and many indoor and outdoor plants while we were away for two weeks in Europe. He was very attentive to the instructions we left, including a pill regimen for one of the dogs. He walked the dogs daily, gave them plenty of attention, and enjoyed their company. Our dogs were clearly well cared for in our absence. This was the first time we used Jean-Philippe and we highly recommend him.

Jean-Philippe provided great in-house care for our two dogs (senior dog and rambunctious 11 month puppy) and five cats while we were gone for a week. His constant presence in the house clearly kept the pets reassured, and they all were relaxed when we got home, unlike many previous trips where we just pet sitters stopping by. Jean-Philippe left our house very clean and we could hardly tell he'd been there!

Jean-Phillipe is great! He clearly has a heart for animals. Our kitty was well tended to as well as all of our out door bird stations. We are so glad to have found him - many thanks!
