“Reiley was an amazing sitter for our 3 boys. He didn’t just drop in to feed them, he took the time to play and interact with them which always makes our boys less anxious. He communicated well and sent us great pictures throughout the stay. I highly recommend Reiley and will be booking him for future vacations!”
“Lise was wonderful, she updated me frequently and she really cares about my pets and it shows! She told me Luna wasn't eating all of her food and went out of her way to give her extra kibble and treats. I really trust her with my pets!”
About: I have had cats and dogs and cared for them since I was old enough to, about 20 years. I have done a good amount of pet sitting and walking. I volunteered for a couple summers at my local veterinarian office. I get along very well with animals and they always like me. I love the outdoors and I love to walk around with dogs. I work in film in Northern NM and would love to do this as a job during slower months, such as the winters. I especially understand that work schedules can get in the way of you being with your beloved pets and the need for quality pet care. I often have a more open schedule than many to work around all your needs! I would love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your fur baby! I am currently on a hiatus from the film industry because of slowdowns, so I have more time than many to watch your fur babies! To care for pets in my home or other's homes I will feed them, play with them, brush them, cleanout litter box where applicable. Walk them if applicable.
“I requested some drop ins while I was out on vacation to make sure my cats were doing alright. My cats were properly cared for even though they were hiding most of the time, and they were perfectly content when I got home. Communication was excellent too.”
“Brittany was everything we could have wished for and more! Our cat absolutely adored her and we loved how well she communicated with us and gave us daily updates. We would book Brittany again in a heartbeat and recommend her to everyone ❤️”
“I would give 10 stars if I could. Probably the best animal caretaker on the planet. Incredibly reliable , thoughtful and on top of it. Melinda made 2 trips a day to take of my senior cat with health issues. Her level of care , consideration and kindness was above and beyond. Melinda sets the bar high. I don’t know if I will ever be able to find a replacement.”
“Alex was terrific! Marigold seemed very happy❤️Alex sent great pics and daily updates. Even came home to a lovely drawing of the sweet snuggle kitten. I very much appreciate the attention to detail and care from Alex. She really went above and beyond! Would use her again 100%!”
“Gavin is amazing! He has visited with Harriet a few times now, and we are happy we found him. He’s responsive, kind, and Harriet loved him instantly. He sends plenty of pics while we’re away (which I always look forward to), and it helps a lot to know Harriet is in good hands while we’re away!”
About: My family has always had pets so I'm comfortable with everything from cats and dogs to turtles and chickens. Young, old, wild, lazy, medicated, need to be medicated, I've dealt with it all. I've babysat and petsat for a variety of people off the books over the years and haven't had any complaints or issues. I like to send update photos to pet parents since I know leaving the babies with strangers can be a stressful experience. I work at the Lab Monday - Friday, 7-4ish. Otherwise, I'm open for business. Adjustments to my 4 o'clock time can be made with advanced warning. I can drop in or hang out as needed. Let me know. Santa Fe residents: I work at the Lab Monday - Friday, 7-4ish. That is a long stretch when including commute. If your pet needs to be let out for potty breaks or medication during weekdays, please keep this in mind. Like I said I can make adjustments with enough warning. I leave my availability as it is because I occasionally have a client in Los Alamos/White Rock that I can accommodate easier. Rover simply doesn't allow that kind of distinction on the basic settings so I try to be up front here. I can't board unfortunately but I can hang out on your home turf. This tends to be most comfortable for your pet anyway. I can drop in or stay the night, both are fine with me.
About: I’ve been around and had pets my whole life. My personal animals are very well loved and cared for. I’m committed to sharing the same attention, love, & quality care that I have for my furry children for yours as well. Currently I’m available 6am-1pm Sunday through Thursday and Fridays and Saturdays I’m available all day. I have my other job I do during the evenings. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime! I am dedicated to the meticulous needs your pet may need whether that be medication, water, attention, exercise, special dietary needs, treats, pup cups, etc. Whatever the case may be your pet is special and I’m committed to whatever they might need.
About: I have a dog back home since high school, and I’ve been taking care of my piano teacher’s cat and dog for a while when she needed. It is a wonderful experience, and now I have a cat on my own. I have take good care of her. And she is the cutest thing ever! I am currently unemployed, so I have decided to start pet care, so I could meet some cute baby animals! And I am basically fit for all schedules, daily or weekly! I have one cat, and she only stays inside all the time. But I do have fence around the house. Depending on service offers, I can work things out with different methods.
About: There has never been a time in my life when I haven’t had a pet! My dog Hazel Grace and I take daily walks together❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so dog walking fits perfectly into the day and allows me to get outside too! Yes! We have a completely fenced in yard with plenty of room to romp and play. All areas of the yard are visible from inside. I also have a very friendly labradoodle who gets along with everyone.
About: When I was 7, I helped train my cousins' dog, and from that moment on, I’ve been passionate about working with animals. I've cared for my family dog for the past 16 years, gaining experience with everything from daily walks to gentle training. Over the years, I’ve helped countless friends and relatives with their dogs, whether it’s house-sitting, basic obedience, or just giving them lots of affection. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the chance to spend more time around pups, giving them the love, snuggles, and care they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work a flexible schedule, which means I can offer consistent attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning snuggles, midday strolls, or evening check-ins, I make sure your pet feels loved and cared for as part of my daily rhythm. When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and routine. I respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and take time to build trust with your pet so they feel safe and relaxed. I’m attentive to their body language, stick to feeding and potty schedules, and double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure they’re secure and happy at all times.

“We were so fortunate to find Debra and lucky enough to have her house sit / pet sit our dog Rex for us twice with another stay on the calendar. We are looking forward to a longstanding relationship. Debra's attention to detail is very much appreciated. From administering medication to walks, talks and belly rubs. Our home as managed as specified, errands run and a happy dog. Communication is so very important and Debra is great. Photos of Rex daily, so very enjoyable. Crystal”
