1. Liz U.
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Liz! Our dog was a bit nervous, as this was her first time at a dog sitter in Santa Fe since we moved, but by day 3, our dog was happy as could be! We received lots of updates and photos throughout the week. We were so grateful to see our dog so happy staying here. When we went to pick her up, she gave Liz lots of hugs, which just tells me that she was very happy to stay with her and very comfortable. Would absolutely recommend! We will be back!”
2. David D.
“We chose David based on the positive reviews he had and we were very happy we did. He was very responsive about making our arrangements for an overnight stay. He is very personable and interesting, cares and understands dogs (and therapy horses). and his yard is very secure. Papi took to him immediately and we were comfortable leaving him in his care and he sent us a photo and note on how Papi was setting in. We would not hesitate to book David again.”
3. Sarah B.
“Our dog Ebenezer was in SUCH good hands with Sara for 4 nights. We did a meet and greet before Ebbie’s stay to make sure it was a good fit for all - which provided us with comfort to meet Sarah and her dog Millie, and see her home. Sarah kept us updated daily on how Ebbie was doing, as well as sending pictures of him exploring, walking and hanging out. We felt very relieved knowing that Ebbie was so well loved and comfortable at Sarah’s. We highly recommend Sarah to watch your pet.”
4. Athena & Jordan B.
“Athena took amazing care of our senior dog Lucy! She was super kind and responsive, sending us updates and pics throughout Lucy’s stay. She gave us peace of mind while away knowing that our girl was in great hands. Will definitely book with Athena in the future!”
5. Joy L.
“Joy was fantastic with Ziggy who can sometimes be a little anxious in new settings and a finicky eater. Joy put me at ease with lots of updates and Ziggy really loved her. She went above and beyond to buy him some chicken when he ran out. Thanks Joy!!”
6. James L.
“Took amazing care of my two dogs while I was on vacation. Was very communicative, and even took my dogs on small trips. 10/10 would book again!”
7. Melinda L.
“Melinda was a fantastic dog sitter for Walter! He immediately felt right at home, even sitting on top of her laundry. She was great with providing us updates and Walter really enjoyed her yard and the other pups she was watching. Would absolutely have her watch Walter again!”
8. Angel C.
“Angel is simply THE BEST. No wonder she’s booked up months ahead, not only is she super responsible, attentive, and well-organized when it comes to looking after your fur baby, but she’s also so kind, loving and caring and you can tell that by how quickly the animals warm up to her. Angel took care of our VERY shy pup Malishka while we were on vacation, and it seemed like Malishka was having way more fun than we did, she made some new friends (which rarely happens) and looked so happy! Angel sent us daily photo updates and went above and beyond to make Malishka feel welcomed. She even gave her a bath before it was time to pick her up! Additionally, Angel paid daily visits to our kitty that stayed at our home and also made sure to keep us updated on her progress. Our kitty is quite timid and takes awhile to come out of her shell around strangers, but not with Angel, which just further shows how amazing Angel is with animals. This is definitely not the last time we will be leaving Malishka and Almond with Angel, thank you so so much!”
9. Katie C.
“We are incredibly grateful to Katie for the love and care our pup Miles received on a recent weeklong stay with her. From our first Meet and Greet with her, we knew that she knows dogs and has a wealth of experience and knowledge to help Miles thrive. She is a dog expert with a big heart. We will definitely use her services again!”
10. Heidi C.
“Heidi is great! She thoughtfully cared for my picky, excitable German Shepherd mix. She has a large dog friendly yard and kept us informed on how he was doing. I'd recommend her without reservation. Thanks, Heidi!”

About: Hello Everyone! If you are looking for a laid back human who has a ton of experience in the world of animal husbandry to take care of your pet, I am your girl! I am trained, willing, and able to administer both oral and subcutaneous medications. I can monitor your pet if they need a little extra care or take them on a vigorous walk around the block. Dog with Mega Esophagus? Not a problem, I am well versed in helping these guys keep their food down. My experience working with a plethora of species in diverse backgrounds makes me confident I can provide stellar care for your animal companion. I plan to devote my time to the pets I will be sitting just as I did for those who were and are under my care at work. I have integrity and I will inform you if your pet seems comfortable around me or not, I wont gamble with your animals' sense of safety to secure your business. The last thing I want is an unhappy pet in my care, being the goal is to keep their tail wagging and happy while you are gone! Excited to meet all of these cool pups and kittens! I currently work full time and can drop in before or after my shift on days I work. On my days off I have an open schedule to provide the best care for your fur baby I have a fenced yard and only provide supervised potty breaks during the less warm hours of the day. I also have a large kennel in my home if your pet is used to having their own safe space
12. Mark M.
“Mark is a very responsible person who loves pets. He had been a pet (cats and dog) owner himself for many years and loves to care for other family and friends animals too. So I believe Mark is both an experienced and passionate pet caregiver.”
13. Tami M.
“We met with Tami for a meet dnd greet and I was confident she would take good care of my senior girl and that Allie would be comfortable and happy there. I was right Allie had a great time.”
14. Anastasia E.
“Anastasia was exceptional! She kept my dog for 10 days/nights and I knew my dog was in a safe and loving home. We had a meet and greet beforehand so I was comfortable with both Anastasia and the environment. She provided daily updates and photos which allowed me to enjoy my time away. More importantly, my dog LOVES her. My dog was part of the family while there, even sleeping in the bed! I DEFINITELY will use Anastasia in the future and highly recommend her.”
15. Ian J.
“Ian’s the best! The dogs love him, and we love him. One of our dogs has medical issues, and he handles it beautifully. I can’t say enough good things about him.”
16. Emily D.
“Did a phenomenal job taking care of my dog Toby. He was very well taken care of. Very happy when I picked up Toby. over all a great experience I would bring back my dog back.”
17. Allegra L.
“They were such great sitters! Momo got along with her 2 y/o son and two other dogs! They regularly took her to parks and on walks. So many videos and pics! I would seriously enjoy having them look after her again. They were the perfect match for Momo.”
18. Michelle D.
“We were so grateful to find Michelle on Rover! Great communication, attention to detail and knowing our geriatric guy was in great hands was wonderful! Highly recommend! Look forward to booking for future boarding. Thank you again!”
19. Sue S.
“Sue is the BEST! Having recently moved to Santa Fe I was apprehensive of finding a dog sitter online. Sue’s reviews were impressive so I went to meet her 2 months before my planned trip. Sue was professional, confident and knowledgable. Spencer gravitated to her instantly. Sue’s home was spotless and dog safe. I was concerned that she may take in several dogs at the same time but her maximum is three and preferably two. I had heard that some other SF dog sitters have as many as 5+ at the same time. Sue sent me photo updates daily. I can’t say enough about how great Sue is and thrilled to have her take care of Spencer again.”
20. Lysa A.
“Lysa watched our crazy 5 year old Golden Retriever Journey. Lysa was awesome!!! She was patient and kind. Lysa kept us informed before and after the visit. Lysa truly cares about the pups she watches. We'll definitely use her services again in the future!!!”
