About: ***Please be sure to fill out your pet's entire profile and please do not ask me to contact you on an external phone number until you have been established as a client ; All initial communication must be through the Rover app or website*** Hi I'm Lana! I am trained in animal care and I have been pet sitting (mostly dogs) for more than 10 years. I think dogs are really special beings and beautiful companions. I enjoy being able to give pet parents peace of mind that their loved ones are being looked after with the utmost care and compassion. I have cared for dogs of various sizes, temperaments and ages. My naturally calm and patient disposition works well with most, especially dogs that may need more time and attention, such as shy dogs or older dogs. I am available for drop-in visits, overnights and walks. For walks and drop-in visits, I still have space open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Mondays and Fridays are packed. If you have any questions about specific dates and times please feel free to send me a message here on Rover. I prefer to care for pets in their own home because it offers them a sense of security during a difficult emotional time while their humans are away. **PLEASE NOTE** I am only offering overnights to existing clients of 4-6 weeks or more, I feel it is important for me and your animal companions to get to know each other before their family goes away.

“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 ❤️”

About: I love meeting new pups and helping them live their best life! Safety is first and I will communicate with you to make sure your dog enjoys their walk and has all their physical or medical needs accounted for. Having two of my own dogs I know how important it is to have peace of mind! My background in addition to pet care and sitting has also involved working with herding dogs on ranches as well as many years of horse, goat, and chicken care! Animals have always been a part of my life and I look forward to using my experience to help you and your animals. SAFETY, COMFORT, and FUN are my highest priorities! I work as a full time artist and walk dogs part time. Typically Sunday through Wednesday are my available days! I’m happy to accommodate your schedule as much as possible. Safety is the priority. Before any walks I will check with you about any safety concerns such as whether your dog has behavioral issues, escapes out the door or out of their collar, or any joint pain or physical limitations they may have. I will tend to stick to routes they are familiar with as this is usually the safest route.

“This was my first time using rover and I’m so glad I found Gavin. He did such a great job watching over my two kitties while I was away. He was so kind and caring to them and he sent pictures every time he dropped by along with a quick message to update me on how they were doing. What I really thought stood out about Gavin’s care was that he went the extra mile and spent the time trying to win over my cats hearts with play times and treats to help them warm up to him. Whenever I’m away I won’t hesitate to contact him. I didn’t have to worry about them at all knowing that they were in good hands. Thanks Gavin! You rock! -Natalie”

“Very happy with the time Amanda took with Peter. Her experience with animals was made very clear with the interactions between her and Peter. Peter is very shy around new people oftentimes, not the case with Amanda. Amanda went above and beyond what I expected and I will definitely be using her services in the future!”

“Taylor took great care of my dog. She was kind and attentive, responsive, and very easy to communicate with. I can tell my anxious dog felt at ease with Taylor. I will definitely request Taylor again and I recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hello and howdy! My name is Tim and I have landed in Santa Fe after traveling the country for a few months, working remotely on freelance projects as I prepare to start an art therapy masters program this fall. I am indebted to animals for all they have done for me and taught me over the years. Currently, I have a lack of fuzzy friends in my life, so would be delighted to spend a little time with your critters. I hold a valid red cross dog and cat first aid/cpr certification, have experience as a pet sitter through Trusted Housesitters, have many varieties of pets throughout my life, volunteer at the animal shelter, and was a professional pet sitter/pet care provider in Asheville, North Carolina. Here is a review of my work from the pet care business owner, Caroline, there: "As a pet sitting business owner, I can confidently say that Tim is one of the best! Tim is one of those rare people who consistently goes above and beyond in his care, without hesitation. His love for animals is genuine and immediately apparent. He’s also an incredibly talented artist, and if you’re one of his lucky clients, you might even receive a funny yet impressive portrait of your fur babies. A true gem of a gift you will want to laminate and put on your wall! Tim was previously part of my team, and I truly miss having him. He was one of our clients’ favorite house sitters for a reason, he’s just that good. Don’t hesitate for a second to hire him. And if anyone would like a personal reference, I’m more than happy to speak with you directly. You can contact me through the email listed on my business website, WNC Pet Care." I am also an experienced gardener and plant lover. In addition, I am currently working on a graphic novel about a canine revolution, so a portrait of your pooch might appear in the story :). I'm a remote freelance editor and illustrator so have a flexible schedule and just need a comfortable place with internet connection to be able to work. I typically take dogs on 3 walks a day, and like to take breaks from whatever I'm doing to pet them and tell them how cute they are. A little playtime as well. With cats I try to do a little play break a couple times a day if they show interest.

“Chase was absolutely amazing with our dog. He took care of her very well and made sure that she was as happy as possible. He also took stunning photos of our dog during the stay.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have volunteered at animal shelters for several years now. I’m comfortable with dogs of all temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. I’m also an avid walker, so your dog will actually get a real walk. I regularly care for other dogs beyond my own, and I’ve recently added two cats to my household, so I’m equally at home with feline guests. I work full time, so I’m available any evening after 5 PM on weekdays and anytime on weekends. Happy to discuss your needs and try and fit your schedule as much as I can. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care I’d want for my own. I’ll stick to your pet’s established routine (feeding, play time, and walks) so their day feels as normal as possible. I keep things tidy, clean up after every visit, and make sure food and water are fresh. I’m happy to accommodate any specific instructions about your space, your pet’s habits, or anything else that matters to you.

“Ian is the best! He’s always on time, and sends me photos on each check in. He’s great with the cats Ana makes sure they’re healthy and well fed.”

“Jenna was a fantastic sitter for our 2 boys. We came home to a nice, tidy house and very happy kitties. She even reached out during our stay to let us know we running low on cat litter which was very much appreciated (thank goodness to Instantcart). We will definitely be booking with Jenna again!”

About: I love dogs and grew up with cats. My long-distance girlfriend is taking care of our 5 year old cockapoo. I am missing dog energy in my life, and would love to meet and take care of your pet. A note: my apartment complex does not allow pit bull terriers, staffordshire terriers, rottweilers, doberman pinschers, chows, akitas, presa canarios, or alaskan malamutes. I work full tim, but only go in to the office 2-3 days a week for meetings. I am out of the house for around 8 hours on those days. I am free all day/night on weekends to care for and be with your friend. My apartment has a large outdoor area to go on long walks. The apartment is mostly hardwood floor with carpeted areas in the two bedrooms.

“Vicki came to our house to do an extra get-to-know-you visit with my dog Riley. He can be a little skittish with people, but he responded to Vicki quickly. She's obviously a kind, caring person, and I feel confident that I'm leaving my dog in good hands.”
