Personalized care for your dog or cat - Arroyo Seco

“We are so glad to have found Bonnie. She will be our go-to dogsitter in Taos. Bonnie is kind, organized, and very good at sensing what dogs need. Plus she’s an amazing photographer. The portraits she sent of Peaches are great! Peaches came home a happy and well-exercised dog. Nearby trails plus the huge fenced backyard make Bonnie’s place perfect for dogs.”

“Our two labradoodles loved their time with Chandra. They came home exhausted and it’s evident they were very well taken care of while there. I got several messages, videos, and photos while we were away. We recommend and would use Chandra again!”

Misty C.

“Lita was great with our dog! She sent several pictures of him enjoying his stay and playing with other dogs! We would definitely leave him with her again, she took really good care of him!”

“Sara was kind and welcoming to both Hallie and myself. I truly believe Hallie was sweetly loved and nurtured by Sara while I took an overnight getaway. I have much confidence and trust in her with an upcoming week in which Sara will care for Hallie.”

“Jackie was incredible. It was the first time traveling away from my cats that I was 100% relaxed and confident in the care they were receiving. She's thoughtful, thorough, and it's evident she has a way with animals. I have a cat who has -never- come out for a sitter, even familiar sitters, even after a week or two during longer trips, but after just 2 days with Jackie, my scaredy cat was less timid and not hiding. I'm so impressed with her. Thank you!”

“Kailey was the best cat sitter for our 5 month old kitten Cora! Cora has never been home alone before but Kailey made it a great experience for everyone and made sure to send us text and picture updates everytime she stopped by. A great first Rover experience for us and Cora.”

Chelsea R.

“Every time I go away on a trip I always hire Mikayla! She’s truly the best and makes me feel safe leaving Malcolm at home with someone so trustworthy.”

Michelle R.

“Priscilla was fantastic, everyone was happy and healthy, place looked great. She was timely and caring, communicative and conscienience.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over 20 years and currently have two of my own. I have experience volunteering for animal shelters and can handle meds, clean up, walks, or assistance for special needs animals. I am insured with Pet Sitters Associates. While in my care, your fur babies are my highest priority and I will love them as if they were my own! I’m currently on a sabbatical from work and am available most days during the week. After taking care of my own, I am free for walks and play starting at 8:30am until 6pm. Peace of mind, pet safety, and your pets contentment is my highest priority and I will follow the exact instructions provided by the pet owner.

“Nadine was great. Arrived at a regular time each day and communicated well with both me and my dog. Would definately use her services again”

About: Self-identified nature and animal lover, in transition from attorney to chaplaincy and mindfulness meditation teacher. I have cared for dogs for over 20 years, from zoomie puppies to slow-moving seniors. I am comfortable administering medication and feeding whatever combo of kibble+/-wet food your pup enjoys. Belly rubs and nature walks are always on offer. All are welcome here. I am home full-time and am able to supervise, care for and play with the dogs throughout the day. We begin each morning with an early one to five mile hike depending on energy levels and weather. The remainder of the day is free time to play, nap, repeat. Meals are usually at 8am and 4pm. In our home: Your dog will have free range of our entire home and fully-fenced acre with access to fresh drinking water at all times. There are several dog beds and toys around the house. Our resident pup Poppy is happy to share! Note: My doggie day care rate covers up to six daytime hours (between 8am - 6pm). We can add more time (starting at +$20) so you don't have to rush doing fun human-only activities. Special requests are always welcome.

“Catherine is consistently reliable in the care she provides to our pets! She’s watched our dogs and cats, together and separate, and we always feel safe knowing she’s checking in.”

“Audrey has been patient with my shy cats and they are warming up to her, which is a huge comfort. Litter boxes are always clean and water bowls filled whn i come home, two thinks that are very important to my kitties!”

Libby S.

“Victoria was great! She took good care of my little old lady cat and checked up on my chickens as well.”

Kayla A.

“We are very fortunate to have Katia T. in our family. Her love for animals makes us very comfortable to leave Katia T. with our precious miniature Dachshunds. Katia looked after Ray and Rosalie Sunday night. It was a same day request. While we were gone we received timely updates and pictures of the dogs lounging comfortably next to Katia T. We highly recommend Katia T. and will use her services again in the future.”

About: Growing up on a farm, I developed hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from livestock to household pets. Today, I extend that care to my friends’ pets whenever they need support, looking after everything from dogs and cats to more unique companions like snakes and chickens. My lifelong connection to animals has given me the skills and intuition needed to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. As a part-time web designer and content creator, I work primarily online, which allows me to maintain a highly flexible schedule. Since I set my own hours, I can easily accommodate pet care, always making time for dog walks, cat brushing, and any other needs. My adaptable routine ensures consistent and attentive care for all pets. I’ve had experience both welcoming pets into my home and house-sitting for others. I’m based in Taos, where there’s a fenced yard and access to great hikes nearby. If I stay at your home, you can expect it to be well-cared for, left clean, and I can also manage tasks like plant care as needed. NOTE for boarding: I do have a cat. Any visiting dogs must be cat-friendly and respect cat boundaries.

About: Hello! My name is Amber and I’m so excited to take care of your animals! I have always loved animals and have found that they bring me a great amount of joy to be around. Starting in 2021 I worked as a kennel attendant at a boarding facility for dogs and cats called Cherokee trail boarding. I worked there for over 2 years and have gained extensive knowledge on taking care of all different breeds of dogs and cats. I also worked in Alaska as a dog sled handler for 5 months where I took care of over 25 dogs at a time. I am very qualified to take care of your animals whether that’s administering important medication or just letting them get their energy out on a walk. I have a very flexible job so I would be able to work with any kind of scheduling that you feel is right for the care of your animals! I would not be able to take dogs/cats into my home but would be very willing to take care of them at your house whether that’s spending the night or seeing them throughout the day.

“Bonnie did a great job watching our senior dog for the day. Great communication before and during the stay. She also gave us a nice recommendation for a local restaurant.”

“Superb. Callahan is fantastic, my dog loves him. Highly recommended.”

Antonio C.

“Adelita was incredible. Our puppy absolutely adored her right from the start, and came back a happy boy. She went above and beyond, took him to the park, and let him play with her dogs at home. She worked on training with him and gave him treats to reward him. She was willing to pick our puppy up and drop him back off with us, making our plans for the day so much easier. She also took the sweetest pictures of our puppy so we could see how his day went. Highly recommend!!!!”

Leslie I.

“Callahan is calm and trustworthy. My dog enjoys the time he spends with Cal and his pack, and always comes home tired. Great communication and follow through. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Callahan for taking such good care of my boy!”

Abigail B.

“Mikayla is an absolute life saver. Not only was she kind, our meatball loved her. She was punctual, communicative and flexible. She went above and beyond. My first time using rover I was a little skeptical but Mikayla surpassed all expectations. Absolutely can not wait to use her again.”

Sarah H.

“Audrey is fantastic! Our dogs appear to really enjoy her visits. She captures their individual personalities in the pictures that she sends. She is on time and spends more than our agreed upon time with our boys ❤️ She’s a life saver!! So glad we found her!”

About: Hi! My name is Tori and I currently live in the Sheffield Lake, OH area. I am available for dog walks, pet sitting, and doggy day care! I do have a part time job in the afternoons but available anytime before and after. I have been around dogs and cats my whole life whether it be volunteering at the animal shelter or taking care of my own. With time, I've learned how to care for animals physically and emotionally by either giving them medical attention or simply just loving on them. I've had plenty of experience with big and small dogs and then learned how to train them and especially earn their trust and with that, I hope to gain the trust of their owners. I know exactly how an owner would want their dog to be treated and I intend to treat anyone's pet the same loving way! Pet care is in my daily routine all day every day. With taking care of my own fur babies, walking, feeding and cleaning up after them is already expected. I care for my pets and all animals the same with the same respect and care. I make sure their needs are meet with food along with exercise and love the obviously need!

“Catherine was super responsive and truly went above and beyond for our pups. We're so grateful!”

About: Reliable pet caregiver with a genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets in home settings, including daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and maintaining a safe, calm environment. I am currently changing careers and have lots of flexibility. Dogs are part of my everyday life as I have 2 of them at home. My partner is retired and provides constant care to our dogs, allowing me to be available for pet sitting outside the home. I am not looking to pet sit in my home. I am interested in pet sitting outside the home. My home has a full fenced yard, and my dogs have free access to the yard and home.

About: I work on my laptop or phone, and can travel with it, and thus would be mostly at home with your animals. I lost my own dog in recent years, and find that I do best when I have dogs and cats to look after. I love being interrupted by a dog asking for attention and play! Walking is a joy for me. Cat cuddles are medicine. I specialize in tuning in to what anxieties need clear support and confidence to help build successful interactions. I'm all about loving and deflecting behavior towards what works. I welcome caring for animals with special dietary or medication issues. To have the company of a senior dog or a puppy is something I really look forward to. I'm editing this profile to add: I so appreciate the humans I am meeting through Rover! Pet owners that choose to hire a person to be with their animals are doing something really considerate and intentional. Thank you for loving and respecting your pets. I am enjoying meeting you all and caring for your lovelies. I organize my working rhythms around pet care. I enjoy having my work broken up with odd tasks and interruptions from animals. In general, providing pet care generally makes me more productive in other areas of my life. I like having a set walking and feeding schedule, and then everything flows from there. My work is portable on my laptop, so as long as I can have a perch to work at, I can be present for animals in the spaces they are accustomed to having company in. I do house visits, walking, and home stays. I enjoy staying overnight with animals because we can tune into each other. I try to get a sense of how the animal parent interacts with and supports their animal through daily routine, and then try to replicate that routine. I pay close attention to what they animals are saying about what they need, and what brings about their contentment.

About: I have 6+ years of experience house-sitting and taking care of people's pets of all ages and breeds. Taking care of an animal and making them feel loved are two different things... I make sure to do both. I work remotely as a virtual assistant and content creator so my schedule is very flexible. I have two cats of my own that I get to spend all my time with. Whether it's just a drop-in or a walk, I provide you, your animal, and your home with respect, trust, and transparency. I can follow your lead and instructions while providing love to your furry friends.

“Tania managed a very unusual request: we had her pick up our dogs from our Venue and take them back to our hotel and feed them. We messed up giving her the key and it turned a bit chaotic and she handled it excellently. Can’t thank her enough for making sure everything still got done. She’s dependable and flexible and would recommend for any pet needs!”
