Stay & play with me! Available 24/7

Pet care experience

I’m an energetic 29 year old who recently relocated from Vermont to Santa Fe with my boyfriend. He works as a physical therapist at Christus St. Vincent, however I am currently unemployed (job seeking) and available to watch your pet around the clock! We live alone in a 2 bedroom casita located next to the Arroyo Hondo open space trails (literally out our back door). We also have a fenced in outdoor space with plenty of room to play! Some of my favorite hikes in the area are Sun Mountain and Atalaya Peak. I also enjoy the trails at La Tierra, Glorieta Canyon and Galisteo Basin Preserve. While you're away, my number one priority is providing your pet with the fresh air and exercise they need in a safe environment. When we moved, my boyfriend and I both left behind our family dogs. There is a big hole in our hearts that is an animal, so we can't wait to spend time with yours! Other important things to note about me - I have a passion for giving the best belly rubs and taking long walks in nature. Snacks, snuggles, squirrels and alliteration are a few of my favorite things. I can assure you, your pet will be happy and at home as soon as they walk through my door. Your furry best friend/favorite family member will get ample attention and maybe even come home with a few tricks to flaunt. Please reach out if you have any questions! I look forward to meeting you - and your pet! Willing to negotiate pricing.

MJ was very attentive and understanding of our dog’s needs. Really appreciate how caring she was with Goose. As soon as we met MJ, we knew that our dog would be save with MJ.

MJ grew up with family dogs and has always had dogs in her life. While she may not have her own dog currently, she loves having friend's and relitive's pups around so she can get her dog fix. On top of her general love for dogs, MJ is reliable, active, and has solid communication skills. My dog, Winston, loves her and I would leave him with her for sleepovers often if only we lived closer!

MJ has watched my dog Neko on multiple occasions. She is extremely flexible and reliable. Not only was she attentive to his schedule, but she communicated everything with me while I was away and the experience was stress free. I would highly recommend using her and plan on hiring her again soon. Neko loves her!!

Availability

I am currently unemployed (seeking employment), so your pet will have my attention around the clock. I’ll be available to take them outside as many times as they need, at any hour of the day. I typically go on a hike or walk in the Arroyo Hondo open space every day, so if your dog is able, they can join me!
