“Jess did such a great job watching our little Megan. She made me feel comfortable right away and my dog seemed just like herself when we went and picked her up. I got pictures and videos throughout the weekend, and communication was always fast. Would definitely book again!”


“Patricia, her husband Sam are ideal dog sitters. They offer 100% dog sense, a yard that our border collie, Olli, could run around in and enjoy, and friends for Olli - Gila and Amber - two lovely dogs. Olli was taken for a run and allowed to sleep where he wanted. (important to us because he roams at night) Their home is calm and relaxed and dog friendly! Worth the trip from Santa Fe to their home near Pojoaque.”


“Laurie was just great in every aspect of boarding our pooch Mikey. She was very accommodating to our schedule and was quick to respond to calls and text. But most importantly, Laurie was fantastic with Mikey. One could immediately tell she is at ease with dogs. I would certainly use Laurie on our next visit to Prescott and recommend her to our friends with dogs. John and Nancy F.”


“Everything from the meet-and-greet to the pick-up at the end went very smoothly. We were able to make our trip to Colorado without worrying and our young dog had a great time with Dwight and his family and his dog Eulie up on the hill.”


“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.”



“Our dog loved Patris. She was very accommodating to his needs. We will definitely use her services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care of their dog.”


About: Hi, I'm Eva! I’ve had dogs and been surrounded by pets my whole life. I currently have a 3 year old Portuguese Water Dog, Claude. He craves social time with other dogs (big and small) and demands at least two trips a day to the grassy park down the street. He is very active and loves to hike or run after work when it's cool out. He loves learning new tricks and recently passed his Canine Good Citizen test. I work from home Monday - Friday and have a fenced in yard in the back if the dogs are desperate to get some energy out sooner rather than later! I work Monday - Friday on East Coast hours so am usually done by 3/3:30 to get the dogs out and enjoying the sunshine. I am able to take breaks throughout the day for walks to the park and around the neighborhood. We love to go for a run or hike after work when it is cool out! I am available all day, able to provide excellent communication and attention for your dog. I have a fully fenced in backyard that the dogs can play in anytime they wish.

“We are absolutely over the moon with the attention that Jalali gave to our two large dogs. We did two days of daycare with him before they had several night stay. Each time we pulled up to his beautiful, fully fenced in rural property they would get so excited and they knew they were in for a grand adventure, he was wonderful about exercising them and letting them have their down chill time while he worked from home. Jalali was very responsive and communicative with photos messages and I felt that my girls were in good hands. Jalai will be our go to Dog Sitter when we are back in town , I am very grateful and thankful that he took such good care of our dogs.”


About: With plenty of experience on Rover and a thorough background check (badge visible on my profile), you can rest easy knowing your pets are in good hands. I’ve worked with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I would totally love to provide the care for your pets! Whether it is short or long walks, a quick check in, teaching them new tricks, going on runs, or even a nice bath, I’m happy to provide love and care for your pet. I just completed my bachelor degree in Social Work! I'll be home for all summer, I'm available to provide the care and love for your pets. I'd modification the schedules around to fit what you and your pets want/needs! Your pets and the safety will always be my priority! I prioritize providing the peace of mind needed for you to enjoy your time away while your pets are in my care. They are free to play, nap and lounge around while enjoying countless belly rubs:) I believe that the pets should be in their comfortable zone when they get to meet someone new so I strongly encourage meet and greet or instruction to introduce to them would be great!

“Brooke was phenomenal. I feel lucky to have found her and think she's an absolute gem on this app. I will definitely be using her again to take care of Luna, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.”


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 will treat your pet like royalty! I have a huge fenced in yard with trees and lots of room to run and play. I work from home and nothing makes me smile more than animals. The animals I watch over I give lots of love and attention, as though they were my own. That’s the honest care and love I bring to each new animal I meet. I've always loved animals. When I was a kid I thought for sure I’d be a vet, or animal researcher or zoologist so I quickly became my neighborhood dog walker, cat sitter, fish feeder, bird watcher, snake charmer, etc. the list could go on! Since then, I have enjoyed sitting for friends and family. I’ll never say no to hanging out with a fur ball. I have experience with small and big dogs. I am active, strong, able to lift 100+ pounds and I love to spend time to really get to know each animal's personality. (I'll give them some serious love and attention.) I will give baths, groom and administer meds with precision. Whatever your dogs unique needs are, I’ll meet them. I also have experience with injured animals and newborns (neighborhood kittens have a way of finding me.) Rest assured your dog will be in good, safe, loving hands. If you happen to have cats, look no further. I adore spending time with the feline kind. I’ve cared for several dogs, cats, horses and rabbits for the majority of my life and love animals. Depending on where you live, I love taking dogs for long walks, and know a lot of the Santa Fe parks or places to exercise - my favorite right now being: Rose Park, Smith Park and Frank S Ortiz Dog Park. Please let me know if your animal has any special needs or medications and instructions for feeding and/or bathing. Please only reach out if your dog is 100% house trained, older than one year and plays well with others. I am not able to dog sit dogs who are not house trained or have aggression issues.

“Dom was fantastic! Drop off was a breeze and he took the time to listen to our little tips and tricks. He sent me messages every day and even a video of his dog and our dog playing and wrestling. She was a happy pup at Dom's and I had total confidence in him.”


“David was an amazing sitter for my two dogs! He took so much care in meeting and acclimating them with his own and it was so easy to see how much he truly loves dogs. I received photos and videos along the whole stay and knew the entire time my babies were happy and cared for. Thank you so much!!”

Marissa and her son Josh were wonderful! Marissa sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. They ended up watching my dog at my house, and took great care of her and my house! She has learned a new trick I’ve been trying to teach her for months and seems quite happy. I think she has been looking for Marissa and Josh since I’ve been back though. She must have really enjoyed her time with them! Thank you to them so much and I hope to be able to use them again in the future!! 10/10

We came to Santa Fe for a long weekend along with our dog, Dalton. There were some days where we had activities planned that unfortunately didn’t allow dogs so we hired Stevvi to care for our little guy for an evening and full day. Dalton was happy and relaxed when we picked him up and Stevvi was quick with communication during the 24 hours Dalton was in her care. Thanks so much!

This was our second time leaving our puppy with David and it was just as good as the first! Our pup loves him and he’s so great about sending us pictures and videos while we’re gone. We have no doubts when we leave her in his care and will definitely be back in the future!
