House Sitting in Pajarita

“Steven was wonderful! He took the time to meet and ask all about Stella’s little quirks prior to me leaving.. and provided me all the updates when I was gone. I came back to a very happy pup!!”

“Elena was awesome with our pup! She is very responsive and easy to work with. We will definitely work with her again!”

Melissa M.

“My whole experience with Mona from start to finish was excellent. She came to my home for a meet and greet right away. She is friendly, smart, efficient, kind, and respectful. She had a good sense of humor about dealing with the four spoiled cats. She called it “herding cats”. She took perfect care of my home, and even brought her own sheets and towels! I have already booked her for another stay in July. I give Mona an A++++!”

Fredde H.

“Vivienne was very accommodating, responsive, responsible and capable taking care of Holly. Huskies can be a handful and Vivienne handled everything dog-gone well. We would highly recommend her based upon our experience.”

“Karen-Joyce did a wonderful job pet sitting for us on a long weekend trip! She was very detailed in learning about our needs beforehand, and very communicative. It's easy to tell how great she is with dogs. While this was our first time using Karen-Joyce as a sitter, we immediately felt confident after our meet & greet and had no hesitations. She left our house clean and the dogs were happy and well cared for! Definitely recommend :)”

“Chase was fabulous. He took great care of our dog and home, and sent us so many wonderful photos. Having a dog sitter hasn't always been easy for our dog but Chase made it effortless. We will definitely utilize his services again. Peace of mind is priceless. Many thanks!”

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.

“This is the second time Lydia has sat for us. We are so grateful for her care and love for our pups! She's sweet, attentive to details and a trustworthy person. Our dog ended up chewing some fabric and throwing up and she handled the situation in a way that didn't make us panic. Our flight got delayed and she offered to stay longer with our dogs. The house was sparkling clean. She's our number one sitter! Thank you Lydia ❤️”

“Mel was great! Punctual, communicated well and took excellent care of Birdie and my home while I was out of town for a couple days. Would recommend to anyone looking for an excellent pet sitter!”

“Bianca was outstanding! She house/pet sat for our two dogs while we were away for 10 days. We received daily updates and photos. She let us know details about the dogs and our house was perfect when we returned. Her experience with animals and understanding of behaviors is clear. Would highly recommend her!!”

About: Bachelors in animal science, with an emphasis in companion animal care and medicine. Two years veterinary experience. I have companion animal training experience and education. Pet care is an important part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time to exercise, feeding, and monitoring pets’ health, ensuring they get the attention and care they need every day. This routine helps me stay connected with animals and maintain my skills in handling different needs, from playful puppies to senior pets requiring extra support. I provide attentive care by staying in owners’ homes or doing daily check-ins, ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in their own environment.

“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!”

About: Hi! My name is Amaica. I work from home as a software engineer and I absolutely ADORE all animals. I have a very flexible work schedule & an active lifestyle - but I’m not quite ready for the long term commitment of having a fur baby of my own so instead I’m enjoying fostering, volunteering with animals, and being on Rover! I grew up taking care of cats, dogs, bunnies, and pretty much any animal you can think of. I mostly just to this for fun so I am flexible on cost and cancellation. During the week I work from home with very flexible hours, so I can generally be available most hours of the day when needed - as for the weekends I’m extremely flexible. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my highest priority! I always aim to work together to ensure I’m meeting your fur baby’s specific needs and ensure their safety & wellbeing!

About: I know it takes a lot of time and energy to give dogs all the love, attention, and exercise they need. I love to get down on the floor and play with dogs, whether it's a game of tug-of-war or a belly rub. I am very attentive to the needs and habits of each pup that I care for. If your dog needs a lot of exercise, I'll be sure they are tuckered out after our walk. If your dog is older, we'll take it easier and I'll be sure they are comfortable. I am also very organized and responsive so you will always be able to get a hold of me. I have over ten years of house sitting and dog sitting experience, with experience from multiple, large high-energy dogs to elderly dogs that need medication administered in scrambled eggs. I am adept at coordinating times to walk or play with your dog. Having grown up with dogs my whole life, I appreciate that a dog is a member of the family, and I take their well-being seriously. Your pets are in good hands! I work at a gallery in Santa Fe on Tuesdays-Sundays, from 10 AM to 5 PM. I have an hour-long lunch, so am available to stop by and let your dog out in the middle of the day. Although I live in Albuquerque, I love taking house sitting gigs in Santa Fe, to take a break from the long commute! Other than my work at the gallery, I tend to hang out at your home when I am watching your pet. Your dog will be sure to get lots of attention.

“Elizabeth was a charm and took great care of our dog Harvey! Our house was well looked after and both our dog and cat are happy :)! Thank you!”

“David took good care of our boys while we attended a wedding. Would book him again if we ever come back to Santa Fe.”

About: I traveled in a van for many years and before I got Richard, I cared for over twenty dogs of all sizes and temperaments all over the country. I still travel by van and offer in-home pet sitting anywhere around the American West. When I lived in Tucson, I volunteered at the shelter and fostered dogs. I will work with the schedule and routines that your dog is used to so they feel safe and secure while you’re away. I’m also an avid hiker and would love to take your pups with me on outdoor adventures if they are up for it. Also happy to take short, gentle walks. I take excellent care of the spaces where I pet sit. I will clean before I leave and will respect your privacy or any of your preferences that we discuss ahead of time.

“Paul was great with my dogs!”

“Hannah is such a wonderful sitter. Our dogs just love her and she takes such good care of them. She has such a good sense about animals and is just generally a joy to work with.”

About: I have been a dog owner myself. I had 10 great years with my cattle dog named Magenta. She was an explorer and adventurer by my side. I am a counselor, nature lover, and enjoy a healthy lifestyle. I am also an artist, writer, and traveler. I work from home as a telehealth therapist, which allows me to pet sit part time and enjoy connecting with pets. I grew up in Montana and Wyoming, spent time in Spain, Costa Rica, Colorado, and more. I am grateful to be living close to the mountains. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies. I work from home as a counselor and spend a lot of time with the pups I love getting out for walks to break up the day, and caring for your pets is top of mind. As each situation varies a bit, the prices may not be exactly accurate when quoted. Please inquire. I am available to pet and house sit in your home. I have 15 years of experience pet and house sitting, and treat your space with the same level of cleanliness, care, and respect as I would my own. I am clean and tidy and will leave your home the way I find it.
