House Sitting Santa Fe

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was a teenager. From 20 year old chihuahuas, nursing day old kittens, and 80lb king German shepherds.. I’ve volunteered at a few animal shelters. Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. My work schedule is 7-4, Monday- Friday and have evenings and weekends free. Over the weekends I am available all day and evening. For week days I can visit your furry baby any time after 4! I have a big fenced in yard and have two loving and playful dogs that enjoy making friends. I have 2 cats that are incredibly friendly but also leave my dogs alone. I have crates available and my neighborhood has sidewalks that are perfect for dog walking.

“Patricia took fantastic care of our dog when she stayed with him for four nights. He developed diarrhea during that time and she cared for him like he was her own pet. She communicated with me throughout the stay and sent photos too. When our dog needs care in the future, Patricia will be our first choice.”

“Katie was very awesome and so professional. Gave me regular updates and kept my nerves calm (as it was my first time with Rover). Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life! I’ve had a dog for 7 years and I watch other peoples dogs for them all the time! 25+ different dogs on Rover as well! I work at Texas A&M University at Galveston and I’m free in the early mornings and evenings! I am also available for the weekends as well! I take care of my dog Riley by going outside and throwing his toys in the backyard and daily walks! I will take care of your dog how you want! I watch my parents dogs all the time and they often need oral medications, ointments, and special diets. I hope to make your pet as comfortable and anxiety free while you’re away!

“I’m definitely a repeat client for Stacey. She is the best! She always does the most for my Winnie boy. I’ve had to leave him for long periods of time and short ones. No matter the case she will take care of your pooch just like you would. You can have peace of mind your pet is in the best hands possible.”

About: ❗️If your house has any signs of fleas, do not book with me.❗️I have always grown up with pets in my house hold, i have always token care of them when no one else did and gave them the love they deserve. We are with them their entire lives, while they are with us for only a portion. I will be gentle and patient with them until they gained my trust. I can bathe them and play with them too, i cannot groom though. But i can make them smell all yummy! College student! I do go to college all year, even in the summer! I don’t have an outside job, so the only thing taking me away from your furry family is school! I’m always open and i can always get to your fur baby’s when needed! I have 1 doggy of my own and she has fear aggression towards other people and dogs, i’ve learned to work around her personality and to go forward. I bathe my dog by hand inside my home every 1-2 months (depends on if she gets dirty, she’s got a self-cleaning coat) and she gets fed every night! (she eats at her own pace so i just top off her bowls) She is trained to sit, paw, talk, wait, and lay down! She is my first daughter and my soul dog! I love her to death!!

“This is our second time having Santana come house sit. The dogs absolutely love her and she takes great care of them. We’ll definitely keep booking with her!”

About: I have had a dog since I was born and I've never been without at least one in my life. I currently have 3 dogs and they are part of my family... we include them in our lives and love to play, walk and talk with them! They have gotten older over the years so 2 of them need special care. Two are blind and have diabetes but we give them shots and it keeps them healthy. I am happy to give your four-legged family member any extra care needed! I comfortable with any breed of dog at any age since I've been around pretty much everything... Chihuahuas, Cockapoo, Schnauzers, English Mastiff...I love them all! I can be available for walks and to check in on your fur-baby while you're away! If your pet needs a ride I am also willing to provide transportation home, or to the spa! Update: Beloved Oliver and Lola are now in puppy heaven. My time is devoted to puppies in need now! Winston recently was laid to rest after 9 years as a devoted companion.

“Neysha was so amazing to watch our fur babies at last minute due to a death in the family. Knowing she was caring for them was such a comfort in a difficult time.”

“Sarah took such great care of our pups! It means a lot to know you can trust someone to take care of your fur babies while you’re away. Will definitely reach out again for dog sitting when we need it.”

“I was introduced to Rover by my co-worker, who recently used the service and told me his positive experience. So, I decided to try Rover service and selected Alexadra as our pet sitter to take care my 2 loving dogs and my kitty. She kept me informed of their activities around the house and sent me pictures of them while playing. I'm very happy and satisfied with Alexandra services. Most definitely I will book again with her.”

About: I have 1 to 1½ years of experience working in veterinary and kennel environments, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands when you’re away. I have two dogs of my own, and I would treat your dog with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own pets. I know it can be stressful when you’re traveling, working long hours, or simply need an extra set of hands to help care for your furry family members. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time and will soon be attending school part-time as well. Despite my schedule, I have flexibility throughout the week and am fully available on weekends. I understand that pet owners often need reliable care while working, traveling, or managing busy schedules, and I am committed to providing dependable care when you need an extra helping hand Creating a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment is very important to me. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and care so they can feel secure while their owners are away. To help build trust and ensure the best experience for everyone, I prefer to meet your dog before the first walk or pet-sitting visit. This allows me to get to know their personality, routine, and comfort level, while also helping your pet become familiar with me. Every dog is different, and taking the time to establish trust beforehand helps create a safe and positive environment for both your pet and myself.

“Jesika did so great with our Buzz! She was very loving and patient with him and constantly kept me updated. She was also very flexible with our travel schedule and considerate of our home.”

About: I can take care of multiple pets from all sizes and ages! I will try my best to give them the best experiences and love! I am available all day, but I do have a night-shift job from 6:00pm to 12am. Regardless, it does not stop me in trying to get the opportunities to help those in such necessities! Puppy owners, I have kennels! I have three loving dogs that are friendly towards each other in all ages and sizes! I own medium size home with a good sizeable yard.

“Chi was a big help jumping in last minute. Our regular pet sitter had a family emergency and Chi graciously accepted the assignment, and was very communicative right out the gate. My cat was well cared for and happy. Thanks, Chi! And thanks Chanell for helping to coordinate!”

About: As a retired veteran, I'm dependable, organized, and take my responsibilities seriously. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. I'm patient with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency and senior pets who may require a slower pace and extra care. I understand that every animal has a unique routine, and I work hard to keep them comfortable and stress-free. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, compassionate care and regular updates throughout each visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As i am retired, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to each pet without feeling rushed. I can easily work around a pet's feeding, walking, playtime, and medication schedule while making sure they get the attention and companionship they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them is something I genuinely look forward to every day I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each owner's care instructions, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering medications if needed, cleaning up after pets, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.
