“Jerrett was so great! Zelda loved him, he followed ALL of our instructions, and the house looked perfect when we returned. Would absolutely recommend as a sitter, and I will definitely book with him again.”

“Bianca was outstanding! She house/pet sat for our two dogs while we were away for 10 days. We received daily updates and photos. She let us know details about the dogs and our house was perfect when we returned. Her experience with animals and understanding of behaviors is clear. Would highly recommend her!!”

Jocelyn J.

“As always Laurie is dependable, kind with the dogs and attentive to anything unusual going on in the household or neighborhood. Great peace of mind when we're away.”

“Myles was excellent! A complete professional even though I had forgotten to update my new address, he came through like a champ and Bonnie has a new BFF!”

“Whitney was the best choice I could’ve ever made or had for watching my sweet Charlie. I hadn’t ever used Rover so I was a bit nervous. Whitney kept in contact with me, sent me pics of my sweet Charlie, and went above and beyond. I couldn’t sing her praises enough! I already told her I want to rebook with her in a few months when I go out of town again. Absolutely recommend her!!”

“Lydia was so great with our girls. I often feel anxious leaving the girls when we travel but Lydia sent regular updates and photos which put me at ease. I recommend her wholeheartedly!”

Christie E.

“Karen-Joyce is a gem. I live out of town on some acreage, down a dirt road, with lots of animals and goings on. She handled everybody with ease, caught on quickly to house rules, and showed just general confidence and sense on how to run the house. I felt confidence when I left on my trip! When I came home, everybody felt happy, settled, and the house was clean and organized. She is adaptable, communicative, responsive, capable... I strongly recommend her. Thank you, Karen-Joyce!”

Elizabeth G.

“It was the first time using Eliza for overnight sitting and she was fantastic! She kept us updated with pictures and left our house clean after the visit was done. 5/5 and will be using her again :)”

About: I volunteered for the internship at Save A Dog in Sudbury, Mass., back in 2020. Helped them clean and gave plenty of lovely attention. I also dog-sat several dogs for four years during college and experienced house-sitting for a lovely couple for three weeks in summer 2024. I love doing my job as I treat them as my own. I will make sure dogs have a blast time and are loved while they are with me. I over-communicate by sending updated texts and pictures, or videos. I would say you come to the right dog sitter here who loves dogs like crazy. Since I got a full-time job on night shifts, I am only available during the weekdays until around 2 and weekends (sometimes for the week!) for any service, I will have enough time to adore and care for your pets. Unless you are okay with leaving your dog with my dog, while I go away for work and my partner will be home at 4:30-5 pm so he can take care of the dogs too (he is also a Rover sitter!) - that is cool with me too. My dog would love the company! I would be more than happy to comply with your request as well. I also have my sweetest 2-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier and 1-year-old dachshund mix who loves playing or cuddling with others. I am more than happy to accommodate your pets smoothly if needed. Both of my pups are social butterflies! Let me know if you have more questions. I know trust may not be easy, but trust is my priority for our relationship. I am an open book, so do not hesitate to ask anything about me.

“Mel was great! Punctual, communicated well and took excellent care of Birdie and my home while I was out of town for a couple days. Would recommend to anyone looking for an excellent pet sitter!”

“Jessica and her daughter were great with our senior blind Westie. Highly recommend her (them) and will definitely try to book her in the future, if she's available.”

“Chase was fabulous. He took great care of our dog and home, and sent us so many wonderful photos. Having a dog sitter hasn't always been easy for our dog but Chase made it effortless. We will definitely utilize his services again. Peace of mind is priceless. Many thanks!”

About: 🐾 QUICK OVERVIEW • Private in-home dog boarding & limited doggy daycare • Calm, low-volume care (typically 1–2 dogs at a time) • Work-from-home dog sitter with a large, securely fenced yard • Excellent for anxious, sensitive, senior, or routine-loving dogs • Pet CPR & First Aid certified • Mindful walks, attentive companionship, and overnight care (A peaceful, boutique alternative to traditional daycare or kennels.) ––– ✨ABOUT ME Experienced • Attentive • Grounded • Quality-Focused Animals feel safe and deeply cared for in my presence—and I treat that trust with the utmost respect. – I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs (puppies and adults), cats (kittens and seniors), birds, fish, and other small animals. From childhood through adulthood, animals have always been part of my life, including personally caring for multiple dogs and cats, as well as animals while living abroad in Bali, Indonesia—where attentive, mindful care and environmental awareness were essential. – My primary focus is private in-home dog boarding and limited doggy daycare, allowing me to offer consistent companionship, a calm nervous-system-friendly environment, and truly individualized attention. I intentionally limit the number of dogs in my care so each dog can fully settle, relax, and feel at ease—never rushed, overstimulated, or overlooked. – I’m certified in holistic health, mind/body somatics, and breathwork with a trauma-informed lens. This means I’m especially attuned to nervous systems, subtle behavioral cues, routines, emotional regulation, and safety. My care is particularly well-suited for dogs who are sensitive, anxious, elderly, or adjusting to change. – This is boutique, quality-focused care—designed to feel steady, thoughtful, and deeply supportive for both you and your dog. ––– 🐾 What Sets My Care Apart • Work-from-home dog sitter with a securely fenced yard • Calm, grounded presence dogs respond to quickly • Excellent for dogs who value routine, familiarity, and predictability • Attentive observation with proactive, thoughtful care • Clear, dependable communication and updates • Respectful, low-stimulus environment • Pet CPR & First Aid certified • Very large, spacious backyard with outdoor doggie lounge (see photos) • Sun-filled doggie studio space with large doggie door (see photos) • Orthopedic, washable pet beds (small, medium, large) with blankets • Stainless steel feeding bowls, leashes, toys, grooming basics on hand – This is quality—not quantity—care. Your dog will never be rushed, ignored, or treated as “one of many.” ––– 🏡 Home & Environment My home offers a spacious, serene environment designed for comfort and ease. Dogs have access to a secure sunroom/studio for lounging and rest, with a large doggie door opening to an expansive, fully fenced backyard. A front side patio provides additional fresh-air space (see photos). – I’m also a mom to two kind, animal-loving boys (ages 8 and 12) who have grown up around dogs, cats, birds, and fish. They are gentle, respectful, and understand boundaries. They are mostly at school and are not caretakers. All animals in our home are treated with respect and consent, and quiet companionship is always honored. ––– 🐕 MY SERVICES OFFERED (Dog-Only): 🏡 Boarding & Doggie Daycare (Primary Services) I specialize in overnight dog boarding and dog daycare in a private home, offering a low-volume alternative to traditional kennels or group-style daycare. – Dog boarding and daycare is offered in my home for a very limited number of dogs (typically 1–2 at a time). Dogs enjoy a clean, hygienic, serene environment with access to a large, securely fenced yard and a predictable daily rhythm. – Doggy daycare is available in a private, low-volume setting—generally one or two dogs per day if they are compatible—to maintain calm, attentiveness, and safety. – Available upon arrival: • Orthopedic washable pet beds (small, medium, large) with blankets • Stainless steel feeding bowls • Extra leashes, toys, brushes, poop bags • Pet wipes and plant-derived deodorizing dog spray • Light grooming for small and medium-sized dogs A meet & greet is optional to all boarding and daycare bookings. ––– 🚪 Walks and Drop-Ins (Limited Availability) Ideal for pets who need feeding, walks, playtime, or check-ins. I’m punctual, attentive, and communicative. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits in a limited capacity to maintain high-quality care for boarding and daycare clients. – 🐈 Cat Care (Limited Availability) From playful kittens to senior cats who prefer quiet companionship—I’m especially skilled with various feline personalities and subtle cues. – 🦜🐠🦎 Other Care (Limited Availability) (If you have birds, fish, or other small animals, I’m happy to care for them too—just ask!) ––– 💛 MY APPROACH & PRICING I focus on quality, not quantity. My care is intentionally low-volume and highly attentive. Dogs in my care receive consistency, calm, and genuine presence—never rushed or overstimulated service. – My pricing reflects private, individualized care, limited availability, and the level of attention I provide. This is not a high-volume or rotation-based setting. Clients choose my services for peace of mind, reliability, and the quality of care their dog receives. – Meet & greets are always encouraged to ensure the right fit. ––– 🤍 BEST FIT/ NOT A FIT My care is an excellent fit for dogs who: • Thrive in calm, predictable environments • Are comfortable with structure and routine • Enjoy individualized attention and companionship • Do well in a low-volume, private home setting • Are sensitive, anxious, elderly, or adjusting to change • Are potty-trained and comfortable with basic obedience – My care may not be the best fit for dogs who: • Require constant high-energy play or group-style daycare • Are not comfortable in a calm, low-stimulation environment • Are not potty-trained or have ongoing marking behaviors • Need intensive behavioral training beyond routine support • Do best in large, high-volume or highly social pack settings – If you’re unsure whether your dog is a good fit, I’m always happy to have a conversation. My goal is to ensure every dog in my care feels settled, supported, and genuinely at ease. – My services are intentionally designed for families seeking private, attentive, low-volume care rather than traditional or high-energy daycare environments. I work from home, allowing me to offer a highly attentive and flexible schedule. Your dog’s day is thoughtfully shaped around their established routines for meals, walks, companionship, and rest—never forced into a rigid or overcrowded timetable. – I intentionally limit the number of bookings I accept so each dog receives unrushed, individualized care and consistent presence throughout the day. This allows me to maintain a calm, predictable environment and respond thoughtfully to each dog’s needs. – My approach is designed to feel steady, considered, and reliable—providing peace of mind for you and a sense of ease, security, and familiarity for your dog. 💛 A safe, and loving environment for your dog Safety, trust, and calm are at the heart of the care I provide. – My home includes a large sun-filled studio space with access to a spacious, securely fenced and gated backyard. Dogs can safely move between indoors and outdoors through a doggie door, allowing for plenty of fresh air and gentle movement throughout the day. If your dog uses a crate or has specific containment preferences, I’m happy to follow whatever routine feels most familiar and supportive for them. – I live on a quiet, peaceful street in a safe neighborhood, with access to a beautiful nearby walking path. I offer structured, mindful walks that are tailored to each dog’s comfort level, energy, and needs. – I care for every dog as an individual and follow your established routines as closely as possible. I’m very attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and overall environment safety, and I always communicate clearly if anything out of the ordinary comes up. – For daycare and boarding, I provide clean, comfortable orthopedic bedding suitable for small, medium, and large dogs. I also keep extra leashes, dog wipes, poop bags, plant-based deodorizing pet spray, toys, and a ChuckIt ball set on hand. – My goal is to offer a clean, nurturing, low-stress environment where your dog feels relaxed, secure, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.

“Kat is the BEST!!! Our dog and cat adore this sitter. Kat sent pictures daily of the animals. Very grateful to have found this super reliable animal lover. After being gone for a week, didn't feel stressed at all leaving our home and pets.”

“Lis was a godsend for us. She's watched our babies three times now. We found her a week before we were heading out of town. We had just moved from AZ to NM and we didn't want to leave our animals in a strange home while we were away. Lis jumped at the chance to watch our 4 animals (2 cats and 2 dogs) and not to mention in a home that was filled with boxes and only an air mattress for her to use while she stayed overnight with our fur babies. But our first experiences with Lis don't speak volumes about the help she provided us when we had an emergency situation. With no notice, we needed Lis to stay with our animals for a couple of days. She immediately made room in her busy schedule to help us. If you're looking for a phenomenal, trustworthy pet sitter who truly treats your pets like they are hers - Lis is your perfect find. Thank you for everything you've done for us, Lis! I truly cannot begin to express how grateful I am for you.”

“We will definitely be hoping that Ryan is available the next time we need someone to stay! Everything went great. Animals loved him, great communication. Could not have gone better. Thank you so much Ryan!”

“Misty was wonderful! She was available for my last minute request and Luna seemed to love her. She followed all my directions and even cleaned up a little:) Misty was very outgoing and I 100% will use her in the future”

“David is simply the best! We came to Santa Fe from Denver for a few days (Monday-Thursday) and we have 7 and 8 year old Border Terriers. Our male has epilepsy, and we do not leave him alone, so we hired David to watch them. David came on Monday night, Tuesday day, Tuesday night, Wednesday day and Wednesday night so that we could go out to dinner, go to the spa, etc. He stayed for several hours at a time, which was a big ask, especially since he has his own pup, but we couldn't ask for a better experience with him. He arrived on time or early, walked them, played with them, administered medications, gave them snacks and loved them! He sent us lots of videos and photos and updates, so we knew they were being taken care of and meds given, etc. He is also just a lovely person, and we really enjoyed getting to know him. He has a calming energy which was great for my boy with epilepsy. We won't hesitate to use him again if we go back to Santa Fe. Thank you so much David!”

Stephanie L.

“We were away for 23 days on a long road trip, and our sitter did an amazing job taking care of our dogs while we were gone. She was responsible and communicative. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us during such a long trip. Highly recommend!”
