“Lily is an absolute gem! She was always prompt with communication and sent daily photos and updates throughout our dog's stay. Our dog loved her and her two very sweet dogs, Stella and Freccia. We've already booked our next stay and highly recommend her!”

“This was our first time leaving our beloved dog with Kendell, and we would do it again in a minute. Kendell is warm, reliable, and she sent us cute photos and kind and informative updates daily.”

“Our experience using Rover and Angel for the first time surpassed our expectations. From our initial meet and greet to our drop off, we felt confident that Tequila would be lovingly cared for by individuals in a home that was dog friendly with both indoor and outdoor areas for play and rest. We received daily notifications, photos and videos about T, allowing us to enjoy time away without worries. With additional trips planned, we look forward to leaving Tequila in Angel's care in the future.”

“Stephanie was my first Rover sitter and I am so happy with the overall process! Cheddar is shy at first but Stephanie and her family allowed Cheddar to warm up and loved on her with lots of pets and belly rubs. I loved the photos I got throughout the day, seeing how happy she was and know she was sharing her happy gremlin sounds with Stephanie and her family. Thank you SO much!”

“My little Chloe was so well taken care of my Roberta! She got to go with her to the Home Depot, an outing that I know she loves, and got to play with other family dogs when they went to visit. Chloe was so happy with Roberta that I was a little envious when I went to pick her up! I highly recommend Roberta and will be setting up another stay with her soon.”

“Loved Katie! She is absolutely the best! I highly recommend her for puppy care. She was in constant contact with me and sent me pictures so that I knew all was well. 5 stars!”

“Did a phenomenal job of caring for it cats while I moved into a new apartment post-divorce. Sent quite a few picture updates while respecting distance of the cat who likes her space. Would book again 😀”

“Michelle had a very clean home, a great little buddy for our dog to play with, coordinated a transfer to our friends, and sent pics to help us know our buddy was happy and well taken care of when he was in her care. We would definitely leave Axel with her again.”

“Jonny took excellent care of our Millie. We got lots of pictures throughout our stay and Millie was so relaxed and happy when she came home. I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using him again!”

“Eliza and family did an excellent job watching our pup over the weekend. He felt right at home playing in their big backyard and running around with the kids. Eliza kept us up to date and it was great knowing he was in such good hands.”

“Rachel did a superb job taking care of our 15 month old pup for two weeks! She went above and beyond making sure that Rio was comfortable, entertained and safe. She provided ample pics and updates. She even did puppy “artwork” with her, which we got to keep. I was amazed at this level of care, which allowed me to not worry a bit. Priceless.”

“Jessica has been an absolute lifesaver for our family! We've trusted her multiple times with our four dogs, two of whom have specific medical needs, and she handles everything flawlessly. She’s incredibly attentive, reliable, and caring—our dogs adore her! Administering meds is never a problem for Jessica, and we feel completely at ease knowing they're in her capable hands. We couldn’t recommend her more for anyone needing a responsible and compassionate sitter!”

About: I’ve had 3 dogs of my own and have cared for many more. I’m communicative, dependable, and will make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home, have a fenced in backyard, and take at least two long walks every day! I just might become your dog’s new best friend! I work from home so your pet can have company all day long! I am active and go for long walks every day and hikes most weekends. I live right near the river trail and Patrick Smith park. I have a fenced in backyard. I have no other pets in the house so your dog will be king/queen of the house while they’re here! I only book pet(s) from one family at a time.

“Amanda took care of our elderly dog at her house for several days, and she did a wonderful job. She was very professional and flexible in her dealings with me. I know our dog liked the family atmosphere, the walks, and the way Amanda comforted her during thunderstorms. I would certainly take our dog to Amanda again if I get to go on another trip.”

“It was wonderful getting videos of my dog Clio having a great time staying with Allegra and family—and then to get back to a happy and healthy Clío awaiting me. Highly recommend.”

“Ian took such good care of our Max. He went on walks and a car ride (Max lives a car ride!), so Max had the best day. Thanks for being available at the last minute and for taking care of Max!”


“Tami was great! Everything from the meet and greet to her policies and her dog knowledge. We felt completely secure with our dog staying with her. It seemed our sweet girl had a great time too!”

“Javier did a great job taking care of our cats while we were away. He was prompt, took lots of pictures, and cleaned up any messes. He followed instructions, responded quickly to messages, and gladly accommodated a last minute request.”

“Tammy helped us super last minute when we needed to be out of town and she was absolutely wonderful! She understands how cats can be and was so helpful and understanding. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”


“Reiley did a great job with our two shy cats who like to hide so much! I recived regular updates and was happy to see they were well and getting attention while we were gone. Thank you so much!!”


“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!”


“Amanda was absolutely wonderful and a lifesaver in a pinch. Chaco has made a new bestie for sure! Amanda’s notes and pictures during check in were both sweet and informative. Chaco has new medical needs and Amanda made sure he took his meds and helped him maintain his new potty routine. Chaco (and his mom) give Amanda 10/10 and can’t wait to see her again!”


About: Hi! I’m Mrs. K, and I’m a reliable, responsible, and caring pet sitter who understands how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your cat in someone else’s care. I’m a cat owner myself, and we have two cats in our home, so I’m very familiar with different cat personalities, routines, and needs. We also have a young daughter who has been taught to be gentle and respectful around animals. She understands that cats need their space and that we never chase, bother, or mistreat them. All interactions with pets are supervised. My main focus is reliable, attentive care. I’ll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, playtime, attention, and anything else they need to stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates so you know how your cat is doing. I know your pets are family, and I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and respect I’d want someone to give my own cats. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and well being will always be my priority.
“Daisy was wonderful with my cat! She spent time giving her the attention she wanted plus making sure the food, water and litter were taken care of. I plan to book her again the next time I am out of town.”

About: Hello, I’m Madison! I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for friends, neighbors, and family. Spending my extra time with animals is truly one of my favorite things. What sets me apart is how genuinely I care. I don’t just walk or watch your sweet fur baby. I pay attention to who they are. Their little routines, their quirks, what makes them excited, and what helps them feel safe. I treat every dog like a friend I’m lucky to hang out with, and I always want them to feel comfortable and loved while they’re with me. If you’d like to meet or just chat about your pet’s needs, I’d be so happy to connect. I can’t wait to get to know your sweet fur baby. 💛🐾 I work full-time during the week, but weekends are when I’m most flexible, so I’m happy to plan walks or visits whenever your pet needs them. When I’m dog sitting, I typically stop by every 2–3 hours for potty breaks and check-ins. If you prefer overnight care, I can stay with your pup to make sure they feel safe and have plenty of company, but I’m also happy to follow whatever routine works best for you. I love getting outside, so if you’d like your dog to go on walks, I’m more than happy to take them out to stretch their legs and burn off some energy!

About: I offer thoughtful, detail oriented pet care with a strong focus on consistency, safety, and communication. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, managing routines, and providing a calm presence for animals that may be anxious or sensitive to change. I am also comfortable with medication management. I take the responsibility of being in someone’s home seriously and aim to create a seamless experience both for pets and their owners. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and a high level of respect for your space. My dog, Tessie, is so important to me so I treat your pets with as much love and care that I would want her to have. My work experience includes firefighter/paramedic, ER nurse, clinic work, and am certified in Pet First Aid. I am the Clinical Director at a local free clinic. This allows me to have flexible but predictable hours each week. Because of this I can provide consistent, punctual visits with compassionate care for your pets. For house sitting I can make mid day visits so that your pets are not alone for longer than needed. I cater each experience to the needs of you and your pet. I prefer to have clear communication of your preferences so that I can ensure that you are as happy with the visit as your pets are. For house sitting, I stay in the home so pets can remain in their familiar space with minimal disruption. I follow their usual feeding, walking, and medication schedules, provide companionship throughout the day and evening, and ensure the home is cared for as well (lights, plants, mail, basic tidiness). My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent presence so pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. For in home drop-ins, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard clean up, medications if needed, and quality time with each pet. I tailor each visit to the pet’s energy level and personality including playtime, short walks, or quiet companionship. I also provide updates after each visit so owners feel connected and reassured. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match your dog’s pace and needs. I prioritize leash safety, positive reinforcement, and a calm walking experience. Walks can include neighborhood routes or familiar areas your dog enjoys, or local dog parks, and I always ensure they return home settled, hydrated, and comfortable.

About: Hi, I'm Sam! Over the past three years, I have built a reliable foundation in cat care, learning exactly how to make kitties feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I specialize in the essentials of feline happiness: sticking strictly to feeding schedules, keeping litter boxes pristine, and engaging cats with their favorite laser pointers or feather wands. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, whether they are high-energy playful kittens or cautious, independent adults. My goal is to maintain their comforting home routine so you can travel with complete peace of mind 😁

“Cheyenne was great! My dog Theo was super happy and excited when we got home from our vaca! Got pictures throughout the weekend that allowed me to enjoy my time away. I will definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: Taking care of dogs brings me joy! I never tire of learning how to better communicate with them. I truly believe dogs only want to please us and it's our job to help them understand what we are asking of them! I have a very flexible schedule so I can fit in sitting or walking your pets easily. I'll be happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits! I want to know how you would like your animal cared for and what works best for them. I am open to suggestions and want everyone to be happy!

“Kendell is excellent! We were worried about finding a sitter during a road trip, and we are lucky that Kendell was available to sit Bella for a couple of hours! She is very attentive and took good care of Bella, and even left us a summary of the walks she took her on and how Bella did with her dinner. We are extremely grateful!”

“The second we stepped foot in Michelle’s home, we felt great about our decision to leave our dog with her. She was very communicative and prompt. Great home with lots of room for a doggo and a fenced in space outside. Or 9 lb dog seemed to get along great and play a ton with her pup. Our guy came home super tired and seemingly happy from a great day.”

“Stephanie was great with our pup. He was happy and calm when we picked him up. Her place is really well suited to dogs with a great yard and cool comfy beds indoors to escape the heat. We would definitely use her again.”

About: My husband and I have an Australian cattle dog and had a tabby cat who has crossed the rainbow road. I often care for my family members' dog when they are out of town. He requires special care, as he needs to take a few pills every day both day and night. This schedule is second nature to us. We enjoy being around our furry pals and will enjoy caring for yours too! They will be treated like our own pets and will benefit from being more socialized! I have a flexible schedule because I work from home and can easily adjust to your pets needs. I work a traditional schedule leaving my weekends especially open. I have a fenced in yard and our back door has a doggie door so your dog can go in and out as they please. We also have a large dog crate if your pet is kennel trained.
“Anaissa is a true dog person and was an excellent sitter for our dog. We’re on an extended road trip and our dog has been feeling a bit stressed. Anaissa wasn’t phased and introduced our dog to others slowly. She kept us updated throughout the day, and we picked up a tired and happy pup. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 10 years and have experience caring for both small and large breeds. I grew up with a dachshund and now have a Bernedoodle, so I’m comfortable with everything from little lap dogs to energetic, larger pups. I know that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just hanging out on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at.

Services include walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, administering basic medications if needed, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I enjoy keeping dogs active through outdoor play, neighborhood walks, and enrichment activities while also respecting the routines and preferences that help them feel comfortable. My home has a secure fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, and burn off energy under supervision. I've been a dog owner for over 10 years and have experience caring for both small and large breeds. I previously owned a Dachshund and currently have a friendly Bernedoodle, giving me firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care requirements.

I understand the importance of clear communication, consistency, and treating every pet like a member of the family. I work from home, which allows me to spend the majority of the day with the pets in my care.

“Pawsitively a perfect experience! Jessica took this last minute request super early in the morning and took care of my pup as if he was her own. My pup had a blast playing with her furbabies and was in the BEST mood when I picked him up. Will 100% be using her again!”

“Hannah watched our senior dog for the day so we could do some non dog friendly things while traveling. She was able to take us last minute and responded quickly. She was easy to communicate plans with and we felt totally safe leaving our dog with her. She has the perfect set up, works from home. He came back happy and tired!”

About: I've had dogs and taken care of them since I was a young child. As an adult I’ve fostered dogs for over 5 years, taking care of all types of dogs. I have experience potty training, house breaking, bathing, and more. The dogs I have fostered came from all sorts of backgrounds; homeless, abusive households, neglected, seniors, disabled (blind, deaf, hard of hearing, missing limbs). I enjoy spending time with all animals and animals like to be around me. Currently working on my dog trainer certification I have a flexible schedule since I work from home most of the time. As a dog owner myself I spend a lot of time taking care of my dog. We go on walks 3 times a day, he gets treats, cuddles and play time all day long. On the weekends when the weather is nice we like to go for short hikes. Unfortunately I sustained a bad fall in 2024 and broke my back; so I am unable to care for any pet over 50lbs or any pet that is leash reactive or pulls on a leash. Since that would aggravate the injury and most definetely stop me from caring for pets all together; I hope you can understand! I have a small backyard where we go play fetch, we also love going to Frenchy’s or many of the other parks in the area for walks and off leash play when the weather is nice. Going for walks 2-3 times a day around the neighborhood as well
“Roberta helped us out and watched Peso while we were on vacation and visiting the Santa Fe area. She was very friendly, and she was very responsive to messages. The communication was great!!! Peso seemed like we had a great time and was happy when we returned to pick him up. We would recommend Roberta to watch your pet!”

“Abby had a great time with Eliza and Alejandro and came home tuckered after plenty of walks and cuddles. I have them booked again for two different days next week also. I appreciated the photo updates. THANKS!!”
“Victoria was wonderful! She was able to accommodate my dog’s stay at the last minute, and communication with her was excellent from the start. I felt completely comfortable and safe leaving my dog with her, especially since it was our first time. I would definitely recommend Victoria and would happily have her watch my dog again!”

“Eva was amazing! I would highly recommend her to watch your furbaby. She watched our sweet Lohla and sent pictures throughout the day. I can’t say enough kind words to say how thankful we were to Eva to watch our girl!”


“Chloe did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Zoey. They went on several walks, and Zoey came home happy and tired each day. Chloe had great communication throughout and was a huge help during our visit to Santa Fe. I highly recommend her!”

“Olivier was very accommodating of my last minute booking request. He provided my husky mix with quality care and was very sensitive to his exercise needs while also balancing the hot weather. Instead of just a neighborhood walk in the intense sun, he took the initiative to drive to a shadier park so my dog could still get outside time. He was very communicative and sent great photos. I would definitely rebook with Olivier in the future.”

“Trigger and I were passing through town, and I needed a pet sitter for a sightseeing opportunity. Trigger has PTSD and anxiety, and can't be left alone. Emma took me on short notice, did a quick meet and greet the day before, and then took very good care of him while I was gone. A long walk for Trigger, and she let him play in the river (with my permission of course!) , and then hosted him at her house til I got back. Excellent, professional pet sitter, and I hope this review brings more customers her way, because she is definitely two thumbs up!”

About: I'm in my mid-40s, active, animal-obsessed, and proudly fluent in dog language! 🐾 My four-legged kiddos—including my amazing tripod—are family, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I absolutely love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, & personalities—from energetic zoomie machines to senior snugglers & everything in between. I enjoy getting to know each pup’s unique personality, quirks, and favorite ways to have fun. I’m relatively new to Santa Fe & looking for fun ways to fill my days, meet new people (and pups!), and explore this beautiful city. I’ve always had dogs and have spent time volunteering in dog rescue, so caring for four-legged friends has always been a big part of my life. Since I enjoy traveling and have a flexible schedule, I thought Rover would be the perfect way to earn a little extra money, get my puppy fix, and discover more of what Santa Fe has to offer. I currently have two dogs of my own who enjoy daily walks, and I truly believe regular exercise and mental stimulation are essential to their happiness and well-being. I would bring that same level of care, attention, and dedication to your dog. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or simply some extra love and attention, I’d be thrilled to help!
“Tammh did a great job of taking care of my dog! She is great at communicating and was able to help me out last minute. She always leaves a detailed note of the walk and takes lots of pictures! She really cares about the pets she takes care of!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up helping care for dogs, cats, and pretty much any living being! My pup Taz has been with me since he was 10 weeks old, and he’s taught me so much about dogs, their personalities, and what they need to feel happy and comfortable. We’ve even spent a few years living the van life and traveling coast to coast, so he’s definitely seen it all! I also have over seven years of hands on experience helping my mom, a dog breeder, care for 20+ litters of puppies. I’ve learned a lot about puppy care, socialization, and basic training, and I’ve even helped with therapy dog training and visits to hospitals and community spaces. I work a hybrid schedule, so I’m able to give your furbabies plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and lots of love while they’re with me. As a Deaf person, I’m naturally very observant and notice the little things, which helps me pick up on what your furbaby needs. I like to keep a comfortable routine with walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of attention so they know what to expect and feel at ease. My schedule is flexible, so there’s plenty of time for extra play, enrichment, outdoor adventures, or just relaxing and cuddling. Every furbaby is different, and I’m happy to adjust their routine to match their personality, energy level, and what they’re used to at home. My pup, Taz, is a social butterfly! He adores and gets along with every single pup he has ever encountered from all over the United States while on the road. If your furbaby wants company, he will be the perfect duo. If your furbaby wants to chill, he will gladly give them space to chill. I call Taz the "Rover Whisperer".

“Violeta was great to work with. She walked one of my dogs so I had time to train another and was responsible, kind, and communicative. If I were not temporarily relocating, I definitely would have continued working with her!”

“Bailey has been walking my 2 medium sized dogs 3x’s a week for the last couple weeks. She’s consistent and communicative. She takes great care of my fur-babies and I’m glad to have found her. Thank you Bailey!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets and also have pets of my own who we love so much. Your fur babies will be in good hands! I work but I am willing to align my schedule if you give me 3 days notice in advance, I’m willing to stay in your home so your pets will be more comfortable staying in their own home. I don’t have a fenced yard but I can arrange things to see if your pets will feel comfortable in my home! I do have two dogs.
“Angel takes such great care of our pup! She’s quick to respond and flexible with our schedule. Can tell from the pictures she sends that our dog is happy and enjoys walks with Angel.”

“Superb doesn’t even begin to describe the service I received! Mayra is phenomenal! She went above and beyond and took great care of my doggy son while I was away. I’d recommend 100 times out of 100!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. Pets of friends, families and at doggy daycares. Pets of all ages, size and attentiveness to special needs. I am currently unemployed. I will have plenty of free time to take special care of your animals and their special needs. Completely open and willing. I have a fenced in yard, it’s private and not close to any roads. My neighbor is a friendly and kind man with a medium sized delightful husky.
About: Grew up working daily on a family ranch surrounded by large and small animals here in New Mexico. Handled daily feeding, watering, and turnout for horses, cattle, goats, and sheep. Cleaned stalls, mucked barns, and maintained secure pasture fencing. Specialized animal care administered oral medications, daily supplements, and basic wound care.

About: Hello! I have been a dog owner and have kept aquariums both as a hobby and professionally for 10+ years. I have over 425 volunteer hours logged combined as an aquarist with the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and with the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. As a personal assistant, baby sitter and dog sitter, I am professional, detail-oriented, friendly and motivated to engage with your pets and give the highest quality care I can. As of this summer, I have graduated with a Bachelors in Biology from UC Santa Cruz, where I worked within two different labs focused on invertebrate and fish research and husbandry tasks, as well as a front desk admin and floor manager at the Seymour Marine Discovery Center. I currently work as a contract field scientist with the Bureau of Land Management, based in Santa Fe. I have a clean driving record and my own vehicle, and am flexible for overnights and check-ins, though do reach out to me to confirm my availability. I am currently employed full-time with a nontraditional schedule, and will communicate with you on times I may need to be out of the house for work. I will go over with you a detailed questionnaire to determine all aspects of your pet's care and schedule, and send update messages at least once a day.

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve also volunteered walking dogs for both PAWS Chicago and the Santa Fe Animal Shelter, so I’m comfortable with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and walking styles. Whether your pup loves a long energetic walk or a slower, relaxed pace with lots of sniff breaks, I’m happy to match their needs and personality. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and helping them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet your dog and take them on a fun walk! I believe in the joy of movement; we all need plenty of movement throughout the day to stay happy and healthy! I would love to take your fur baby out for a walk or run so they too can experience the joy of movement. ♡ I am available Mondays: 12-1pm, Tuesdays: all day, Wednesdays-Fridays: 6-9am, and Saturdays-Sundays: 6-10am I have completed the "Fear Free Shelter" training and know how to help your little fur baby to feel free from fear, anxiety and stress.

“This was our first time leaving our beloved dog with Kendell, and we would do it again in a minute. Kendell is warm, reliable, and she sent us cute photos and kind and informative updates daily.”

“Our experience using Rover and Angel for the first time surpassed our expectations. From our initial meet and greet to our drop off, we felt confident that Tequila would be lovingly cared for by individuals in a home that was dog friendly with both indoor and outdoor areas for play and rest. We received daily notifications, photos and videos about T, allowing us to enjoy time away without worries. With additional trips planned, we look forward to leaving Tequila in Angel's care in the future.”

“Stephanie was my first Rover sitter and I am so happy with the overall process! Cheddar is shy at first but Stephanie and her family allowed Cheddar to warm up and loved on her with lots of pets and belly rubs. I loved the photos I got throughout the day, seeing how happy she was and know she was sharing her happy gremlin sounds with Stephanie and her family. Thank you SO much!”

“Loved Katie! She is absolutely the best! I highly recommend her for puppy care. She was in constant contact with me and sent me pictures so that I knew all was well. 5 stars!”

“Jonny took excellent care of our Millie. We got lots of pictures throughout our stay and Millie was so relaxed and happy when she came home. I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using him again!”

“Eliza and family did an excellent job watching our pup over the weekend. He felt right at home playing in their big backyard and running around with the kids. Eliza kept us up to date and it was great knowing he was in such good hands.”

“Jessica has been an absolute lifesaver for our family! We've trusted her multiple times with our four dogs, two of whom have specific medical needs, and she handles everything flawlessly. She’s incredibly attentive, reliable, and caring—our dogs adore her! Administering meds is never a problem for Jessica, and we feel completely at ease knowing they're in her capable hands. We couldn’t recommend her more for anyone needing a responsible and compassionate sitter!”

About: I’ve had 3 dogs of my own and have cared for many more. I’m communicative, dependable, and will make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home, have a fenced in backyard, and take at least two long walks every day! I just might become your dog’s new best friend! I work from home so your pet can have company all day long! I am active and go for long walks every day and hikes most weekends. I live right near the river trail and Patrick Smith park. I have a fenced in backyard. I have no other pets in the house so your dog will be king/queen of the house while they’re here! I only book pet(s) from one family at a time.

“Amanda took care of our elderly dog at her house for several days, and she did a wonderful job. She was very professional and flexible in her dealings with me. I know our dog liked the family atmosphere, the walks, and the way Amanda comforted her during thunderstorms. I would certainly take our dog to Amanda again if I get to go on another trip.”

“It was wonderful getting videos of my dog Clio having a great time staying with Allegra and family—and then to get back to a happy and healthy Clío awaiting me. Highly recommend.”

“Ian took such good care of our Max. He went on walks and a car ride (Max lives a car ride!), so Max had the best day. Thanks for being available at the last minute and for taking care of Max!”


“Tami was great! Everything from the meet and greet to her policies and her dog knowledge. We felt completely secure with our dog staying with her. It seemed our sweet girl had a great time too!”


About: I offer thoughtful, detail oriented pet care with a strong focus on consistency, safety, and communication. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, managing routines, and providing a calm presence for animals that may be anxious or sensitive to change. I am also comfortable with medication management. I take the responsibility of being in someone’s home seriously and aim to create a seamless experience both for pets and their owners. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and a high level of respect for your space. My dog, Tessie, is so important to me so I treat your pets with as much love and care that I would want her to have. My work experience includes firefighter/paramedic, ER nurse, clinic work, and am certified in Pet First Aid. I am the Clinical Director at a local free clinic. This allows me to have flexible but predictable hours each week. Because of this I can provide consistent, punctual visits with compassionate care for your pets. For house sitting I can make mid day visits so that your pets are not alone for longer than needed. I cater each experience to the needs of you and your pet. I prefer to have clear communication of your preferences so that I can ensure that you are as happy with the visit as your pets are. For house sitting, I stay in the home so pets can remain in their familiar space with minimal disruption. I follow their usual feeding, walking, and medication schedules, provide companionship throughout the day and evening, and ensure the home is cared for as well (lights, plants, mail, basic tidiness). My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent presence so pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. For in home drop-ins, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard clean up, medications if needed, and quality time with each pet. I tailor each visit to the pet’s energy level and personality including playtime, short walks, or quiet companionship. I also provide updates after each visit so owners feel connected and reassured. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match your dog’s pace and needs. I prioritize leash safety, positive reinforcement, and a calm walking experience. Walks can include neighborhood routes or familiar areas your dog enjoys, or local dog parks, and I always ensure they return home settled, hydrated, and comfortable.
“Brooke was phenomenal. I feel lucky to have found her and think she's an absolute gem on this app. I will definitely be using her again to take care of Luna, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.”


About: I grew up around lots of animals (cats, dogs, chickens, goats, reptiles), and I now have a lovely cat of my own named Julian. I absolutely love getting to spend time with other people’s pets. At this point in my life, I’d say I’m very much both a dog-person and a cat-person. I go on walks every day before or after work, and during my lunch break. Walking a dog would fit naturally into that routine. I’m willing to wake up early in the morning if needed, and if the client lives in Santa Fe, I would have the capacity to visit the dog or cat during my midday break from work as well. If the client lives outside of Santa Fe, I’m still available every evening for walks, feeding, and giving the dog/cat attention and human contact. I’m typically able to stay overnight at a client’s home any night of the week if needed. I treat pets with care, respect, and attentiveness. I’m a clean and tidy houseguest, and will respect the client’s privacy and boundaries. Whether you need me to take your dog for a walk, stop by once or twice a day to feed your cat, or stay overnight to keep your pet(s) company, I will be professional, responsible, and caring towards your pets. I’m happy to answer further questions, so please feel free to contact me anytime.
“Christina did a great job with our pup. She was extremely communicative and allowed my girlfriend and I to enjoy a day trip to the caverns/Guadalupe mountains with ease of mind.”

“Violeta was perfect. Can tell she really loves dogs and really cares about them. She watched my dog for nearly 3 weeks. Sent pix and notes. I can’t say enough good things. She’s a great person that really cares about animals. ?”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 10 years and have experience caring for both small and large breeds. I grew up with a dachshund and now have a Bernedoodle, so I’m comfortable with everything from little lap dogs to energetic, larger pups.

Services include walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, administering basic medications if needed, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I enjoy keeping dogs active through outdoor play, neighborhood walks, and enrichment activities while also respecting the routines and preferences that help them feel comfortable. My home has a secure fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, and burn off energy under supervision. I've been a dog owner for over 10 years and have experience caring for both small and large breeds. I previously owned a Dachshund and currently have a friendly Bernedoodle, giving me firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care requirements. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've spent years looking after pets for family and friends, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand the importance of clear communication, consistency, and treating every pet like a member of the family. I work from home, which allows me to spend the majority of the day with the pets in my care. This means they'll receive frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, lots of attention, and very little time left alone. My flexible schedule allows me to stick to your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable, secure, and happy while you're away. I believe every pet deserves patience, affection, and dependable care, and I strive to make them feel like part of my own family from the moment they arrive. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and will always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. Whether we’re playing, walking, or relaxing at home, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away.
