Dan was great with the dogs. We got pictures and videos every day and the dogs were very comfortable with her and her pups when we came to collect them. I would highly recommend her as a sitter. She has a nice enclosed yard and house very suitable for dogs. We will definitely be back.

Stephanie has a wonderfully large space for dogs to play outdoors and get plenty of exercise. One of our pets was recovering from an unexpected illness and needed medications and some very specific feeding instructions which was managed very diligently. We are very happy with the care our dogs received here.

Laurie was just great in every aspect of boarding our pooch Mikey. She was very accommodating to our schedule and was quick to respond to calls and text. But most importantly, Laurie was fantastic with Mikey. One could immediately tell she is at ease with dogs. I would certainly use Laurie on our next visit to Prescott and recommend her to our friends with dogs. John and Nancy F.

From the jump, Melinda was an outstanding communicator, answering all of my questions with patience and kindness. This was our first Rover experience, so we were a little stressed about leaving Sonny with a stranger. But from our first play date it was clear that not only does Melinda rule, but also her house is perfect for indoor-outdoor movements. She shared vids and pics and updates, and I will be extremely happy to leave Sonny with her again. Just a great experience all around.

There are not enough superlatives that could express my gratitude and appreciation for Katie's care of my Kira (dog). Katie isn't just someone who is watching your pet... she is a beautiful soul who cares and nourishes your beloved while simultaneously helping them become a better animal through bonding with others in a safe space and developing healthy habits which Katie reinforces. I will (and have) return many times because Kira LOVES going to Katie's house and so do I!

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.

Heidi was wonderful to work with - flexible, communicative etc. And just terrific with my quirky little Yorkie, Ari. I am always uneasy leaving Ari with someone new for the first time, and this went so smoothly. He came back totally "himself": no re-adjustment period at all. Cannot recommend highly enough. Very much hope that Heidi is available the next time I travel!

About: AVAILABLE FOR LAST MINUTE HOLIDAY PET CARE! EVEN IF IM BOOKED, PLEASE ASK :) Hi! I'm Rune (they/he), I live in San Jose (between Santa Fe & Vegas) on a 1-acre farm with my three dogs, two cats, and nine chickens. I'm a grad student, and would love to have your sweet dog join our pack for a day of doggy daycare, a weekend, or more! I've had cats all my life and dogs for 15 years. I used to foster for the Santa Fe Humane Society and worked with their most fearful, shut-down dogs...and then I kept adopting them :) I've also fostered puppies! I'd be happy to work with your dog, especially if they are fearful. Note: I DO NOT ACCEPT UNALTERED MALES OR UNSPAYED FEMALES, NO EXCEPTIONS. If a dog is found to be intact (not neutered/spayed), they will be quarantined immediately and MUST be picked up same-day with no refunds. I'm a grad student, so I'll be very available for your sweetie :) I specialize in working with extremely fearful animals, helping them come out of their shells, rest, and relax. I'm Pet CPR Certified through The Frontline Coalition, which means I can resuscitate, save from choking, set a limb, etc. My little farm is fully fenced. I'm always here; I'm usually only away from home for one day a week, usually for six hours or less. My house is an old adobe, and I have multiple tall baby-gates so that animals can be separated if needed.

I HIGHLY recommend Hannah. We had a bit of a unique request in that we needed someone to care for our axolotls while we were out of town. IT WAS Hannahs first time caring for them. She took exceptional care of our hungry munchkins! She sent us pics during each visit, cleaned their tanks, fed them, and more. She went above and beyond. You will not be disappointed.

About: I have spent the last 3 years traveling while doing house/pet sits throughout Mexico, Arizona, California, Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. My clients have included some high profile gigs in Bel-Air, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu, but I have also spent months at a time living off-grid in the Mexican jungle and caring for animals on remote farms. My experience dates back to 1991 when I worked my high school summer vacations on a sheep farm to escape city life. I love ALL animals, and have had a special connection with them, my whole life. Your pets (and babies) will be comfortable with me right away. I have been a mom to birds, rodents, fish, cats, and dogs. I do have some experience with reptiles, as well. I come with many years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats from the puppy/kitten stage through their golden years, so you can rest assured that any special accommodations your fur-baby may need will be met with kindness and compassion. I am particularly fond of, and experienced with Bully Breeds, Golden Retrievers, and Doodles of all varieties. I only provide pet care in the owners home as I’ve found it is a far less stressful experience for the pets and the sitter. It’s all I do, so your pets will get tons of attention and affection. I also do occasional dog walking gigs while I’m staying at your home. Your babies are my babies while you’re away, and your home will be treated with the utmost respect. Confidentiality and privacy are considered paramount, always.

About: I enjoy caring for and being present with dogs. I am empathetic and always in tune with what others are feeling and need. I would love to hang out with your dogs! I have been around animals my entire life and find myself growing more drawn to caring for them every day. Currently, I do not have a dog of my own so I feel that taking care of your dogs would bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life. I enjoy all types of dogs and personalities and would enjoy getting to know your dogs! I feel others would describe me as patient, balanced, and responsible. Whether I'm just watching your dogs for the day or for an extended period of time you will be able to rest easily because they will be in warm, loving care.

We were visiting from out of state and last minute decided to explore downtown shopping dog free. Stephanie responded to our inquiry request right away which helped us enjoy our last day. Stephanie took great care of Frida. Frida can have some anxiety when in new places, but Stephanie's calm demeanor and close care made Frida feel right at home. She has great spaces, both indoors and outdoors, for the dogs to roam and settle in.

Lily was very excited to go back for her second day! You should be forewarned that her house is down a dirt road with ups and downs. Would definitely recommend this sitter for a social and energetic dog

We brought our older dog with us to Santa Fe and realized that in order to see all the lovely art museums we needed to find someone to care for Zippy. Zippy has separation anxiety and we were worried about leaving him for an extended time. We had nothing to worry about. He really enjoyed his time with Victoria! He got to play with other dogs, watch the chickens, take walks. He was living his best life, while we were able to enjoy Santa Fe dog free. It was a win-win for everyone. I highly recommend Victoria for daycare.

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

I’d give Tami more than 5 stars if I could! I knew my pup Mila would be in good hands when Tami squatted down into “doggie play pose” :-) This was only her second time in a daycare, but Mila warmed up to her quickly and moved out to meet the dogs and explore the spacious yard. She felt comfortable and welcomed. Tami texted me with updates and pics during the day, so I didn’t have to wonder how things were going. Pick Rami for your pooch!

From our first communication, I knew.... Kendell is such a beautiful and loving person inside and out. Her love and joy pour out of her. My Buttercup had no hesitation leaving with her and her precious pup, Taz. My heart was happy because I knew this was a new chapter for my little girl who has had a difficult season of instability. I appreciated that Kendell could pick up and drop her back off. The photos confirmed what I already knew. My fur baby was safe, comfortable, happy, and doing zoomies! In Kendell and Taz, Buttercup and I have found new friends and we are so excited to start this new journey together.

I have 30+ years experience with cats, and have pet-sitted many kinds of dog breeds ranging from chihuahua to Great Pyrenees I currently do not have a job, so I am mostly available all day for pet care, save for a few hours a day when I go into town for errands. I have a large sunlit home with a yard (unfenced) and large patio area for play. I have no other pets, so yours would receive all my love 🤍

Any animal I care for will be well fed and watered and will get plenty of play time. All of the animals I currently have are super friendly. I live on a one acre fenced property. I currently am a full time college student, so I have alot of free time in which I usually always hang out with my animals. I have a fenced yard, and a puppy to keep your pet company. I also have a kennel so if needed they can go in there.

Jalali was amazing with our pups! I would highly recommend him as a sitter and I will definitely book again when I’m back in the area. Our dogs were exhausted from a day of running and playing when we picked them up and were excited for another day of day care when we dropped them off for a second day, too! Overall, great experience, communication, and care. Thanks, Jalali!

Iosif was amazing! Great communication from start to finish sent me updates throughout the day with videos and pictures. Iosif was very careful and wanted to make sure that his dog and my dog got along and asked the appropriate questions I was traveling, but if I am in Santa Fe again, I need pet sitting he’ll be my first choice.

About: Caring for animals comes naturally, and nothing makes me happier than making them feel safe, loved, and at ease. Animals have always been part of my life, as I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats and more! I've raised puppies from 3 days old, having to bottle feed and potty train...all the way up to seniors, managing meds and declining capabilities. I volunteered at a shelter in Mexico for a year. Through that experience, I was exposed to a lot of medical and behavioral situations, which taught me a lot. My partner and I both work from home, which means your pup will never be lonely. We know how to make dogs feel comfortable, and aim to have them feel like they've taken a little vacation, too! I know leaving your pets can be stressful. I send lots of updates and pictures, so you can feel relaxed and assured your pup is happy and healthy. My partner and I work from home, and have a lot of flexibility in our schedule. We currently have a 10lb Chihuahua, who was left on our doorstep with umbilical cord still attached! At 2 years old now, he's a pretty easy going guy, and likes to be part of a pack from time to time. He usually gets 2 walks a day around the neighborhood. Or, we will do a nice long walk or hike, if time allows. We feed twice a day and provide treats for being a good dog, of course. I love to take work breaks to play tug of war or fetch. Belly rubs are available every night for all four legged residents of the house who want them! Any furry guests would fit seemlessly into our routine. We have a fenced yard, and are always home when pets are in the yard. No dangerous chemicals or pet hazards in our house. Generally, we aren't away from for more than a few hours. We are also happy to take them with us, whenever possible.

About: I have a deep respect for animals, their autonomy and their neediness. I have been a caretaker to many walks of life including children, dogs, cats, rabbits and the elderly, throughout my life. I am devoted to treating all walks of life with love and respect and honoring all pet owners wishes for keeping their pet healthy and safe. I am a student enrolled in online school, so attending to needs is easily added into my daily schedule. I also am a single mother to 1 small child, and already equipped to be caregiving as a full time job! It’s something I love to do. Animals that are child friendly as a must, as well as pet owners. I love to be active and lengthy walks for dogs (or cats) will be a quality experience for me and the animal! I am attentive to the moods of animals and will be able to know if something is wrong. Safety and responsibility are my first modes of conduct.

About: If your pet needs a new best friend… I’m your guy. I’ve loved animals literally my whole life! My first dog was a Husky who used to give me chaparoned rides in the backyard when I was a baby. Since then I’ve grown up with all kinds of pets, dogs, cats, bunnies, mice, hamsters, chickens, and animals have always just vibed with me! I bond really well with pets of all kinds, whether they’re shy, playful, energetic, or the type that just wants a chill person around. I do this because I genuinely love animals, and taking care of them makes me happy ! It’s something that feels natural and meaningful to me. If you choose me, I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own little pack, with patience, attention, and good energy. Whether it’s walks, hangs, feedings, or just being a safe presence while you’re away, I’m here to make it easy for both you and your pet. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m flexible and can work around you and your pets schedule. We’ll find a rhythm that works for both of us. Alongside pet sitting and house sitting, I offer energy healing sessions. Feel free to ask me more. I take care of pets in a way that feels natural for us. In your home, I stick to their usual schedule and make sure they get attention, company, and whatever they need to feel safe. I’ve got plenty of time to give, and I’m available for overnights if you’re going out of town.

About: I grew up in a household with cats, dogs, small mammals, exotic and domestic birds, reptiles, and fish. I have experience as both a short and long term pet/house sitter. A large portion of my life has been spent working at pet stores, aquariums, wildlife rehabilitation facilities and with animal trainers so I have good background knowledge surrounding a large variety of animal care. By trade I am a biologist with a focus in the marine sciences. As a full-time field biologist, the field part of my job doesn’t allow me time to have pets of my own. So between field jobs I greatly enjoy the opportunity to pet sit since I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet! I feel that pet sitting is a great way to get some animal time in while also helping out. I am very attentive, caring, trustworthy, and dedicated. Every home has a routine and flow all its own, one of the most important things a sitter can do is maintain that rythem while the pet parent is away, and give lots of extra love too. Thank you for taking the time to review my information, I would be thrilled to speak with you about how we can work together to meet you and your pets needs.

About: I enjoy caring for and being present with dogs. I am empathetic and always in tune with what others are feeling and need. I would love to hang out with your dogs! I have been around animals my entire life and find myself growing more drawn to caring for them every day. Currently, I do not have a dog of my own so I feel that taking care of your dogs would bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life. I enjoy all types of dogs and personalities and would enjoy getting to know your dogs! I feel others would describe me as patient, balanced, and responsible. Whether I'm just watching your dogs for the day or for an extended period of time you will be able to rest easily because they will be in warm, loving care.

About: AVAILABLE FOR LAST MINUTE HOLIDAY PET CARE! EVEN IF IM BOOKED, PLEASE ASK :) Hi! I'm Rune (they/he), I live in San Jose (between Santa Fe & Vegas) on a 1-acre farm with my three dogs, two cats, and nine chickens. I'm a grad student, and would love to have your sweet dog join our pack for a day of doggy daycare, a weekend, or more! I've had cats all my life and dogs for 15 years. I used to foster for the Santa Fe Humane Society and worked with their most fearful, shut-down dogs...and then I kept adopting them :) I've also fostered puppies! I'd be happy to work with your dog, especially if they are fearful. Note: I DO NOT ACCEPT UNALTERED MALES OR UNSPAYED FEMALES, NO EXCEPTIONS. If a dog is found to be intact (not neutered/spayed), they will be quarantined immediately and MUST be picked up same-day with no refunds. I'm a grad student, so I'll be very available for your sweetie :) I specialize in working with extremely fearful animals, helping them come out of their shells, rest, and relax. I'm Pet CPR Certified through The Frontline Coalition, which means I can resuscitate, save from choking, set a limb, etc. My little farm is fully fenced. I'm always here; I'm usually only away from home for one day a week, usually for six hours or less. My house is an old adobe, and I have multiple tall baby-gates so that animals can be separated if needed.

About: I have spent the last 3 years traveling while doing house/pet sits throughout Mexico, Arizona, California, Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. My clients have included some high profile gigs in Bel-Air, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu, but I have also spent months at a time living off-grid in the Mexican jungle and caring for animals on remote farms. My experience dates back to 1991 when I worked my high school summer vacations on a sheep farm to escape city life. I love ALL animals, and have had a special connection with them, my whole life. Your pets (and babies) will be comfortable with me right away. I have been a mom to birds, rodents, fish, cats, and dogs. I do have some experience with reptiles, as well. I come with many years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats from the puppy/kitten stage through their golden years, so you can rest assured that any special accommodations your fur-baby may need will be met with kindness and compassion. I am particularly fond of, and experienced with Bully Breeds, Golden Retrievers, and Doodles of all varieties. I only provide pet care in the owners home as I’ve found it is a far less stressful experience for the pets and the sitter. It’s all I do, so your pets will get tons of attention and affection. I also do occasional dog walking gigs while I’m staying at your home. Your babies are my babies while you’re away, and your home will be treated with the utmost respect. Confidentiality and privacy are considered paramount, always.

From the jump, Melinda was an outstanding communicator, answering all of my questions with patience and kindness. This was our first Rover experience, so we were a little stressed about leaving Sonny with a stranger. But from our first play date it was clear that not only does Melinda rule, but also her house is perfect for indoor-outdoor movements. She shared vids and pics and updates, and I will be extremely happy to leave Sonny with her again. Just a great experience all around.

There are not enough superlatives that could express my gratitude and appreciation for Katie's care of my Kira (dog). Katie isn't just someone who is watching your pet... she is a beautiful soul who cares and nourishes your beloved while simultaneously helping them become a better animal through bonding with others in a safe space and developing healthy habits which Katie reinforces. I will (and have) return many times because Kira LOVES going to Katie's house and so do I!

Very much hope that Heidi is available the next time I travel!
