““Michelle was fantastic. Her communication was excellent, she kept us updated regularly and always let us know how Lei Lei was doing. Lei Lei came home happy, loved, and clearly well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.””

“Ari had probably his best stay ever with a sitter at Cressendra's. He was welcomed and understood and photographed (*great* photos!) and - although often skittish with other dogs - was exuberantly engaged with Amigo from the beginning. Cress is communicative, flexible, truly cares about the dogs, 'gets' them. A great photographer. A stellar person. Will definitely leave Ari with her again if she will have him!”

“Ray was great! Milo was tired and seemed really relaxed when we picked him up. We got about an update a day which was nice, would have liked a few more just because we had only left him before once with someone else while we were out of town, and I’m admittedly a little bit more of a worry wort dog mom. They were SUPER kind and is very much trust them again with Milo. They were always responsive and seemed to really care for dogs. He also got along great with Oatmeal, they’re own poodle, it was nice having a buddy for Milo to hang out with. 5 stars!”
“Kyle and Dale were wonderful with Roux during her overnight stay. They made her feel right at home, kept me updated, and I could tell she was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands, and I’d definitely trust them to watch her again.”

About: I love all animals! I have experience with dogs, cats, cows, reptiles (mainly snakes), chickens, ducks, rodents (rats, mice, hamster), rabbits, sheep, goats, birds, etc! I love connecting with each animal in their unique ways, I truly believe we have a lot to learn from these compassionate beings. It's my pleasure to make them feel safe, loved, well fed and fully exercised! I don't have a lot of experience with senior animals but I'm willing to learn what their specific and special needs are. I have had older dogs in my life so I do have a basic grasp on their needs but everyone is unique! I am self employed. My schedule can be pretty open for the most part! The flexibility I have in my life makes it really easy to navigate your pets needs. I'll gladly learn the typical schedule you have with your pet so that they feel their care is secure and stable. Time of feeding, length of walk, treats, etc. Just let me know and I'll do my best to make you both feel considered and cared for. I'm living in a multi-bedroom home in downtown. Your pet would have access to the fully fenced back yard and the entire main house. My pets live in a separate studio and I can tend to their needs separately. For dogs, I am about a 5-10 minute walk to a couple different parks, one park is HUGE! We can easily go for an outing or stay at home and play in the backyard.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. Pets of friends, families and at doggy daycares. Extensive feeding, medications etc. Pets of all ages. I am currently unemployed. I will have plenty of free time to take special care of your animals and their special needs. Completely open and willing. I have a fenced in yard, it’s private and not close to any roads. My neighbor is a friendly and kind man with a medium sized delightful husky.
“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!”

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.
About: Hi, I’m Whitney. I bring a warm, trustworthy presence and years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Whether it’s a walk around the block or hanging out at home, I meet each animal with playfulness, attunement, and care. I’m also a professional photographer, so you’ll get great photographs along the way! I take your pet’s safety seriously and treat every animal like my own. I look forward to meeting this very important part of your life. I have daily availability for 30-60 min walks, whether weekdays or weekends. I love boarding dogs at my house and driving for drop-ins for cats & dogs. I love photographing all of the beloved pets! I follow each dog’s routine closely, pay attention to their body language, and adjust to their individual needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and provide regular updates. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and positive experience for both the dog and the owner.
About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life! My mom at one point had 17 cats and 3 dogs. I learned from a very early age how to care for them, and make them feel safe and loved! Rover did not let me use my phone number so my account is connected to my boyfriends, so when you do book with me I’ll send you my number :) thank you! I’m currently a stay at home mommy of 2 kids. I’m home everyday of the week while their dad works so I’m free to take care of your animal any day of the week and anytime! I make sure all pets that come to our home feel welcomed and safe! We don’t have a yard since we do live in an apartment but I’d love taking them for a walk to the park at our apartments and around our complex ! I love to reward animals for good behavior with treats (if the owner is ok with that!) :))
“Christina did a great job with our pup. She was extremely communicative and allowed my girlfriend and I to enjoy a day trip to the caverns/Guadalupe mountains with ease of mind.”

“David was the best caregiver we could have ever had for our dog Ollie. He gave Ollie 3 meds a day, and sent us many photos and videos. His 2 dogs welcomed Ollie as part of their family. We will definitely use David from now on when we need a sitter. Thanks so much David! Cindy H”

“Good communication, smooth drop off and pick up, reasonable rate. Was very welcoming to Nala and made her comfortable with other dogs Will see her in our future trips through Sante Fe”

“Calista and her roommates were amazing! They loved having my pups! With her professional expertise in animal care I felt very safe leaving them with her. She kept me updated everyday and whenever I asked with pics and videos! I can’t thank them enough! Highly recommended 100%”

A previously booked 10 day stay for my dog was canceled by another provider at the last minute. I was panicked. I contacted Joy and she arranged a meet and greet immediately. She has a cute apartment with a lovely shaded courtyard right in town. It is a good area for walks. She is kind and loving. She gave me daily updates and pictures of my boy and took excellent care of him. We will book her again.

Stephanie was my first Rover sitter and I am so happy with the overall process! Cheddar is shy at first but Stephanie and her family allowed Cheddar to warm up and loved on her with lots of pets and belly rubs. I loved the photos I got throughout the day, seeing how happy she was and know she was sharing her happy gremlin sounds with Stephanie and her family. Thank you SO much!

David took excellent care of my dog Lizzie with no issues at all. He sent photos & videos daily and kept me updated on how she was doing. It is great he has a calm dog to be a companion , too. It was such a relief to know she was being well taken care of while I was away.

Gavin is absolutely amazing. He was amazing with our boy and so communicative . Finding someone who takes such great pride in their role as caregiver for pets is special. Fur babies are our children and Gavin takes it to heart. I guarantee you won’t find anyone who loves and cares for them as much like we as owners do. Thank you Gavin!!
Mark took such good care of my cat Yosemite while I was away. Through daily photos I could tell Yosemite was loved, entertained, and happy. Mark has such a positive energy and made sure to ask all the right questions beforehand to ensure Yosemite had the best care and easiest transition possible. I highly recommend Mark for pet-sitting!!

Brooke was an amazing dog sitter for our furry friend. She sent us pictures of Winnie doing all the things that let us know she was happy and settled while we were gone. I would highly recommend Brooke and I’m sure we will be booking a stay for Winnie there again!

Ari had probably his best stay ever with a sitter at Cressendra's. He was welcomed and understood and photographed (*great* photos!) and - although often skittish with other dogs - was exuberantly engaged with Amigo from the beginning. Cress is communicative, flexible, truly cares about the dogs, 'gets' them. A great photographer. A stellar person. Will definitely leave Ari with her again if she will have him!

Austin is a great Dog sitter! I had to find a sitter for my senior dog last minute and was anxious about leaving her with someone I didn’t know. But it was obvious she was in good hands right away. I got lots of pictures of my dog through out the trip and he was always very responsive with his communication. Will definitely use again.

Russell was the perfect sitter for our dog while we were away for a week! He sent photo updates at least once a day, if not more! Our dog is elderly, but Russell had no problem adapting to his needs, and he came home calm and happy- it was clear that he was very happy and very well cared for. We will definitely use Russell again and I’d happily recommend him to anyone who needs high quality care and love for their pup!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Santa Fe on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 96 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Santa Fe. About 96% of Santa Fe sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NM ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
