House Sitting in Spanish Valley

“Leticia wash excellent. Kept us informed everyday. Our feline children are somewhat challenging and she was on top of their needs. Our home was in great shape when we returned.”

Susan P.

“Jayna was very respectful and responsive. She kept me up to date and sent a few pictures each day. She was flexible we we had to adjust times of arrival. We already booked for next weekend”

Dawn K.

“Elaine was awesome! She was very on point with appropriate communication and there was never a moment of concern about how things were going.”

Amanda J.

“Overall, really happy with how our first Rover experience went - we know our dogs can be a lot to handle - so I'm glad Ariana was up for the task. They seemed to be very happy to have the company while we were away - will definitely be back for our next trip!”

Melissa R.

“Jamie was amazing. We have a relatively new year old rescue dog with lots of anxiety, combined with two older dogs. She completely understood how to watch for all the personality traits and possible conflicts and worked so well with our rescue. She worked with the puppy and he’s so much calmer. Jaime was also was a really clear and prompt communicator.”

Jessica T.

“Aubrey was great staying with our cat for the weekend. She's responsive, sends lots of pics, and left our place cleaner than it was when we left!”

Nick I.

“I was so lucky to find Ryn ! She stayed at my house with my three cats and elderly pup “Charlie”. I had to travel out of state, impromptu and was really nervous about leaving him . She was so understanding and didn’t flinch at all when I listed the things he needed to be happy and safe. He is deaf and doesn’t communicate all his needs. Ryn not only followed his schedule, but I could tell she was attentive to him by the details she shared in her daily reports. I would not hesitate to call on her again whenever I need a pet sitter! Five Stars !”

About: Hi, I’m Krystle. I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been something I’m deeply passionate about. While dogs are my favorite, I’ve also raised and cared for cats, chickens, and have experience around horses and other farm animals as well. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a slower, more attentive pace. I also have experience with special needs pets, including three-legged dogs, arthritis, and sensitive digestion. I’m comfortable with all aspects of care, including feeding routines, administering medications, bathing, light grooming, structured exercise, hiking, playtime, and of course plenty of affection and snuggles. I truly believe animals feel the energy you bring, and I strive to create a calm, safe, and supportive environment for every pet in my care. I’m also a Wilderness First Responder, which gives me a strong foundation in handling unexpected situations. I have experience treating minor injuries such as puncture wounds, removing foxtails, and staying aware of environmental hazards like snakes and toxic plants, especially important here in the desert and on trails. One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had was fostering a terrified, unsocialized Rez puppy who had no prior human connection. With patience, consistency, and care, he transformed into a confident, loving dog and became the shadow of my sweet Opi boy (may he rest in peace). I trained him in foundational commands like sit, stay, lay down, gentle, and recall, and helped him become a well-adjusted trail companion. I’ve also trained my own dogs in both manners and fun tricks like roll over, spin, speak, hug, and shake. I said goodbye to my sweet boy, Opi, in January of this year, and I no longer have dogs of my own. Because of that, I’m able to fully dedicate my time, attention, and space to the dogs I care for. Before this chapter of my life, I served just over 9 years as an Active Duty Marine. That experience shaped me into someone who is highly reliable, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and deeply committed to doing things the right way. I approach every pet with empathy, attentiveness, and genuine care, and I’m always happy to answer any questions to make sure you feel completely comfortable trusting me with your furry family members. Pet care is my full-time focus, so my days are intentionally structured around the needs of the animals in my care. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular outdoor time, enrichment, and a calm, stable environment throughout the day. I prioritize a balanced routine that includes exercise, rest, and individualized care based on each pet’s energy level and personality. Whether your dog thrives on activity or prefers a more relaxed pace, I’m able to adjust my schedule to support what makes them feel most comfortable and at ease. I take a thoughtful and highly individualized approach to pet care, tailoring each stay to your dog’s specific needs and your preferences as an owner. No one knows your pet better than you, and I value that insight, whether it’s routines, medical needs, quirks, favorite toys, or anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. Safety is always a top priority in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor time, and I’m experienced in managing a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and group dynamics. I’m able to provide structure, supervision, and separation when needed to ensure every dog feels safe, respected, and supported. I maintain a calm, stable environment and am very attentive to behavior, body language, and overall well-being. My goal is to create a space where dogs can relax, feel secure, and settle in naturally. My husband and I both genuinely love animals, and your pet will be welcomed into a home that is attentive, respectful, and caring. Your pet will be cared for with genuine attention, respect, and affection every step of the way.

“Leanna was great with our dogs! We would be happy to hire her again.”

“Val was able to housesit for me last minute when I had to go out of town for a funeral. I felt very confident after meeting her as she responds quickly, is confident and responsible and very friendly. My dogs liked her very much and had a good experience. She sent me funny pictures of them and seemed like she really understood their personalities! She left my place looking tidy just like I left it. I recommend Val!!”

Renee P.

“Everything seemed good. The dogs seemed to be entertained. Just 2 over night stays.”

About: I grew up on a farm in Colorado and have spent my whole life caring for my own and other people’s animals. I have experience with challenging behaviors, medication administration, senior pets, and anxious pet care. With 16 years of hands-on animal and farm experience, you can trust my knowledge, reliability, and communication. I live nomadically and work online, so my schedule is flexible and I’m able to give pets lots of time, attention, and consistency while they’re in my care. I know every animal is different, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know their personalities, routines, and comfort levels so they feel safe and settled while you’re away. I work online and live a flexible lifestyle, so I’m able to be very present with the pets in my care. My schedule allows for plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and consistency throughout the day. I’m very attentive to animals, their behavior, and their environment. Whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while you’re away.

“Trisha was on time and so kind. She sent updates and pictures while we were away. She also took our Hope on walks while we were away. We definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of every sort of critter since I was a little kid and have always been passionate about making animals a part of my life. This includes puppies, dogs with disabilities, blind cats, animals needing medication, and lots of animals with big personalities-I even have one my self (Australian blue healer). I have volunteered all over the country at different shelters while traveling and have worked for shelters and animal ranches. You could say I know a thing or two about animals. My dogs are essentially my kids and come on almost every adventure with me. With clients, I treat their dog exactly how I expect others to treat my furry ones when I’m out of town. If there is anything special that you’d like to let me know, then I am all ears. I spend most of my free time rock climbing and adventuring outdoors. I also love to read and paint, so if your dog isn’t as active, I will certainly lounge around with them :) All of my pets get better care than I think most dogs ever get and your dog will be treated just the same! My dogs are always involved in every activity and never feel left out. They all love to learn, play, walk, adventure and of course get snacks! Just let me know how you normally take care of your dog and we can make it work!

“We were out of town for two days and Rachel and Stefan stepped into help us last minute take care of our dogs. We could not have been happier with their service. The dogs seemed content and happy when we returned and the house was left in an orderly condition. They followed our instructions for dog care and asked pertinent questions. I would definitely use them again for our furry pups.”

Andrea M.

“Amber was fantastic. She took great care of our boys, and our house while she stayed with them. She is great with responses and communication. She sent us daily updates and let us know how they were doing, and she followed our instructions for care. We felt very comfortable leaving them with her, and we felt a great peace of mind and were able to fully enjoy our vacation! I would highly recommend Amber to take care of your dogs!!”

About: Dogs that come visit usually have a blast being part of the pack and end up learning some desirable behaviors with my 2 service animals Bellie and Lola. I am a retired veteran so i am free to work with dogs all day everyday, its very rewarding and works great with my schedule. I have a couple of runners set up and shade structures. When it is hot I let the dogs inside. I take the dogs out to play with my pack often. We will go on walks, throw frizbee, play tag, practice tricks, etc. I like to take the dogs swimming too if thats permitted by the owners before hand ( I have doggy life jackets).
