Dog Boarding Santa Fe

“Callie had a blast! I loved how many photos I got and how communicative Visnu is!”

Peter H.

“Christine was incredibly easy to communicate with, professional, and showed wonderful care for my dog Manchi! She navigated her anxiety and quirks so well, took her on a bunch of walks, and even gave me a polaroid of her holding a show, her favorite thing to do 😊”

“Danielle and Joel are fantastic dog sitters. I truly cannot recommend them enough. They bring me so much peace of mind everytime I leave my little pup with them.”

Virginia C.

“Matthew and Van Jospeh did a wonderful job hosting our dog, Stanley, for a 2 night stay. They were very easy to work with, were flexible, very friendly, and Stanley seemed at ease the moment he met them. Would absolutely use their boarding services again. Thank you!”

“Hope was recommended to us by another great Rover sitter, and we are really grateful. Hope is so friendly and knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. She made Coconut comfortable immediately. Her little dog Rocky is adorable and super friendly. Coconut loved going for walks and playing with Rocky's toys. Hope was great with sending text updates as well as photos and videos. Here's hoping Hope doesn't get too busy to have room for Coconut the next time we need her!”

“I had a very positive experience with Chen boarding my pup Bernie for a few days. Bernie is a well behaved dog, but he has a few needs that Chen took on willingly. He also took the time to meet with me and Bernie ahead to make sure all his needs were understood. It is clear to me that Chen loves pets and treats them with care. He sent me many updates reflecting his attention to Bernie's comfort and sense of feeling at home and with family. He also sent many stellar photos. Chen has a real talent there and I think also shows his adoration of the pets he cares for. Chen and his family were kind and warm to me and to Bernie and I reccomend him for you.”

“Mariola provided a kind a loving home for our dogs’ first overnight with her. She also provided us with some useful insights into their behavior. She was a clear and easy communicator throughout the process.”

Samantha G.

“Mary took great care of Maggie! She was a very thoughtful host, kept Maggie entertained and active, and sent me lots of pictures. Highly recommend!”

Cindy Z.

“Nathalie is just amazing! She takes such great care of our two dogs. She treats them like they are her own pups and we love all the adorable photos and videos she sends. Thanks again Nathalie!”

Joshua C.

“Thais and Marlene were great. They took great care of Harry while we were out for 10 days visiting family for the holidays. Thais was very responsive to us and sent photos regularly with updates on how Harry was doing. A great experience overall.”

Pedro & Edward G.

“Maia was a wonderful sitter - super communicative and caring! She sent multiple updates and photos while we were away and went way above and beyond in making sure Lula had enough exercise and playtime! I highly recommend her!”

Carla F.

“Sherry went above and beyond to take care of Molly during her stay, including taking her to vet (which was quite a drive away) when her vet here in Berkeley was unable to see her immediately. She clearly loves animals and will do her best to care for them like her own pet during their stay. Five stars for her extra time and care to ensure the best care for our girl!”

Deanna B.

“Nikolai and his wife have a lot of experience watching after all breeds and sizes of dogs. My pup stayed with them along a large group of other pups over the holidays and we had an overall good experience with them. I was happy to know that our pup had plenty of friends to be with during his long stay.”

Desirée & Steven D.

“Albina took great care of Abby. This was my very first time leaving her with a sitter and I was a very anxious momma! Albina was patient with me and put my anxiety at ease with ongoing communication, pictures, and videos. I would definitely recommend Albina!”

Jessica S.

“Robert was absolutely wonderful with our girl Phoebe on her first overnight! We were a bit apprehensive as Phoebe has separation anxiety but she was happily occupied with multiple walks and so much love! Robert's level of conscientiousness is unmatched and we completely entrust him with Phoebe's health and safety, including keeping her away from other dogs so her reactiveness isn't triggered. We couldn't ask for more!”

Carla D.

“Very attentive and caring dogsitter. Took great videos and pictures during the overnight boarding stay. Great communication. Thank you for taking care of Rudy!”

Jasmin and Louis

“This was our 4th booking with Anthony and Nikita. We know that our dog will get loving, careful care, and there will be daily updates and photos. It's a weight off our minds to know he's in good hands.”

Lin L.

“Kani was great with my dog and made sure he was comfortable with the other dogs at her place. I would definitely have my dog stay with her again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since childhood and deeply love connecting with animals. I supported my last dog through her later years and have sensitivity to the needs of elder puppies. I also enjoy the energy of younger dogs and live right near San Pablo park for dogs who like to socialize. I mostly work from home with occasional in person meetings during the week. I am available for pet care throughout the week and can let dogs out to the back yard throughout the day. I live in a quiet but lively neighborhood with lots of great areas to walk and sniff. The back yard is fenced in and allows space to lounge in the sun. There are no other pets or humans currently in the house so it is very peaceful and quiet most of the time. I don't take dogs from more than one household at a time. I check in on the pets I care for regularly and track their emotional as well as physical needs, giving pets and butt scratches often!

About: I offer a quieter, more individualized kind of dog sitting. I only take dogs from one household at a time, so your dog won’t be sharing the space with a rotating group of other dogs. That allows me to give them a lot of individual attention and to keep their routine as familiar as possible. I’m a licensed acupuncturist and a therapist in training, so being reliable and observant is a big part of my professional life. I’m also very conscientious about following your instructions closely. I know how much the little details matter, and I make a point of keeping track of feeding schedules, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, and the routines that help your dog feel at home. I have firsthand experience caring for an anxious dog who later developed dementia and physical limitations. Because of that, I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and dogs who are sensitive or easily overwhelmed. I understand how much patience and consistency can matter when a dog needs extra support. I’m especially available on weekends, when I can spend plenty of time with your dog rather than fitting visits around a packed schedule. Depending on their personality and energy level, we might have a quiet day at home, take neighborhood walks, or head out to places like Piedmont Park, the Albany Bulb, or the beach. I want your dog to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, and I want you to feel completely confident that someone is really paying attention to them. Pet care fits best into my schedule on weekends, when I have plenty of time to give dogs attention, walks, companionship, and a relaxed home environment. I’m generally available from Friday evening through Sunday and can often accommodate weekend boarding or daytime care. During the week I work a regular professional schedule, so I’m intentional about only accepting bookings when I know I can provide the time and attention a pet needs. When a dog is staying with me, I want them to be part of my routine rather than squeezed into it. I take safety and trust seriously and make a point of following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment and make sure dogs have appropriate supervision, regular walks and potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I’m careful about feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, and any behavioral or health concerns you share with me. I also like to know about a dog’s personality, triggers, routines, and preferences ahead of time so I can help them feel comfortable and settled. If I’m caring for a pet in your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
