Dog Walking in Santa Fe

About: I've been a pet owner all my life (dogs and cats!) and have been pet sitting for a few years now. I also spent a summer when I was in college pet sitting for a couple who was traveling. My own pets have always been part of my family and I know how important their physical and mental health is. I have experience with older dogs and know that they may need a little extra consideration and attention. I will treat your pets and your home with the care and respect I would want someone to treat my own. I am available to stay at your house and be with your pet so they are almost never alone. Outside of short trips for groceries or to do other dog walks or check-ins I can be with your pet most of the day or for the full day. I'm a non-smoker and I will not invite anyone else over to your house. I’m happy to walk your dog if they don’t pull strongly and constantly on the leash - I'm good with mild to moderate constant pulling or intermittent strong pulling. Your privacy and security are of the utmost importance to me. I will treat your home and your pet with the care and respect that I would want someone to treat mine. It is a privilege to be allowed into someone's residence to watch over both their home and their pet and I take this responsibility seriously. I will only feed your pet what you have asked me to, no human food or table scraps. Pets can behave differently when their people are gone so I err on the side of caution and am careful about keeping them on leash and being aware when opening doors that they don’t bolt out. On walks I stay alert to traffic, other dogs, and wildlife.

“I booked Amrit for a couple of dog walks when I was ill and couldn’t take my dog out. My dog doesn’t always like strangers but he immediately loved her. Very trustworthy. Will book her again. Thank you, Amrit!!”

About: We’re a husband-and-wife dynamic duo with a lifelong love for animals! Between the two of us, we’ve cared for a wide range of pets — from dogs, cats, chickens, horses, cows, rabbits, and ducks to small pets like rats and hamsters. I grew up on a ranch, where my father taught me to love and care for animals of all kinds. My husband grew up surrounded by dogs and small animals, developing his own deep bond with pets. Today, we share our home with three cats and four dogs, and we’re passionate about treating every animal we care for like a member of the family. We’re a husband-and-wife team who both work full time, but we have plenty of availability in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends. We love starting and ending our days with playtime, walks, and quality care for the pets we look after. Your pets will always get lots of attention, love, and reliable care built into our daily routine. We are current with all of the safety and care procedures for cats and dogs. It is our goal to not only ensure safety and health, but to help your animal feel comfortable and loved.

“Brittany is INCREDIBLE. She is made to be working with animals! I feel blessed to be able to leave my pup in her care when I’m at work. She’s professional, provides great updates (with photos), and is an all around wonderful human. I am so lucky to have found Brittany to care for my puppy.”

About: I will spend quality time with any and every animal that I watch. My brother and his girlfriend have me walk they're two dog's a few times a week while they're at work. They have a rotty and a german shepherd mix. I love doing it and my daughter loves them as well. I figured sense we love it so much I should see if I can get paid for it! I have been watching both dogs and cats for about 5 years now for both friend's and family whenever needed. I am not scared of pit bulls or any breed. I believe how you raise them is how they act. I am willing to deal with any kind of breed. I LOVE THEM ALL!

“Gavin came over for a meet & greet under really short notice and was available all week when we had a schedule change. He took my two boys on long walks and sent pictures- always a plus! I felt like my dogs were in great hands with him, and we will definitely be using Gavin again in the future.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old. I have a 3 year-old Portuguese Water Dog who loves to have friends stay over. He’s incredibly friendly and welcoming to dogs staying over. I have a fenced yard (with GRASS!). I work from home so your dog will be given constant love and attention. Long walks are a must—especially to the two parks that are 5 minutes away. I work from home full time and have plenty of time throughout the day for walks. I am happy to pick up your dog from your home and bring them to ours! Claude, my 3-year-old Portuguese Water Dog, has had plenty of sleepovers lately and loves having a friend to hang out with at home. He’ll show your dog our fenced-in grassy yard, will gladly share his spot on the couch, and will advocate for your dog to get treats all day!

About: I am a life long dog owner with decades of experience pet sitting for friends and acquaintances. Born and raised in Santa Fe, I have extensive knowledge of trails and neighborhoods for hiking and venturing. Additionally, I am familiar with administering medications and senior care. I have a flexible schedule, am an early riser for morning walks or hikes, and have a truck for transportation. Weekdays and weekend availability for overnight stays and walking. I have a fenced yard and reliable transportation to visit the dog park, local trailheads, or in town walks. Pets will get plenty of exercise if needed, and lots of nurturing and attention at home.

“Austin was calm and confident. My dog Mika reacted well to him and they had a good time on his walk. I will use Austin again!”

About: I’ve cared for small and medium dogs since I was 14. I’ve loved taking care of animals ever since I was a little girl. With my parents being animal lovers I’ve encountered many animals throughout my life. As of right now I have 2 Dogs, 2 Cats, and 3 Horses! I provide loving attention, walks, feeding, and playtime to keep them happy and healthy. I am calm, reliable, and respectful to you and your home. Your pets will feel safe and well cared for while you’re away.💕 I work part-time in Los Alamos, but only two days a week that I choose. I am pretty available anytime the pet owner needs me. In highschool, I dogsat on the weekends but now that I am out of highschool I’ve been doing it consistently. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable whether I’m at their home or mine. I stick to their usual routine provided by the pet owner. Feeding, walks, playtime, so they don’t get stressed. I keep their space clean and give them lots of attention and love. I’m calm and patient, so pets feel relaxed in their home.

“Danielle is friendly and takes wonderful care of my dog. She is very flexible and easy to work with. You can tell she loves animals and really takes great of my dog when I’m at work. She sends daily updates to let you know how your pet is while in her care. I would highly recommend her if you’re in the Santa Fe area :)”

About: I have a dog back home since high school, and I’ve been taking care of my piano teacher’s cat and dog for a while when she needed. It is a wonderful experience, and now I have a cat on my own. I have take good care of her. And she is the cutest thing ever! I am currently unemployed, so I have decided to start pet care, so I could meet some cute baby animals! And I am basically fit for all schedules, daily or weekly! I have one cat, and she only stays inside all the time. But I do have fence around the house. Depending on service offers, I can work things out with different methods.

“Super nice and helpful! Definitely a person to trust!”
