“Lily literally came through when I needed a pet-sitter ASAP . I’m am so pleased / appreciative of her help picking up Prince and dropping him off. She definitely kelp me updated on him and how he got along with her dog. So I would definitely recommend Lily again . Thanks Lily 😊❤️”

“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!”

“Eliza is a great pet sitter. She was always sending me pictures and videos to show how Mimi was doing and I knew the moment I pick Mimi up that she had a great time. Thank you Eliza. Mimi will love to see you soon.”

“Angel is a gem. Incredible communication before, during, and at the completion of our boarding, and clearly, CLEARLY our dog loved his stay at her place. Will absolutely turn to Angel again, she’s one of this city’s gems. Thank you!!”

“Kendell was wonderful with our dog Bill. She was very communicative and responsive with us. She was so kind and gentle that Bill was comfortable with her immediately. She sent us pictures and updates and left us feeling secure in knowing that Bill was in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her and would book with her again when in Santa Fe.”


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.
“Dawn once again took great care of our dog, Sevi, while we were visiting Santa Fe a second time. Sevi is a sensitive shepherd mix, and she gave Dawn a thumbs up! Dawn was communicative and responsible.”

“Ziggy had a great time with Rachel! He quickly made himself at home and loved cuddling, playing ball, and going on walks with her. Rachel made it easy to coordinate around my travel plans and kept me updated on how Ziggy was doing.”

“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!”

“David is a true dog lover. Our two pups quickly bonded with him and his mellow dog, Sprex, who provided great companionship both at home sleeping on David’s bed and walking on leash with the “pack” in nearby parks. We definitely will use David (and Sprex) again.”

“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 was patient, professional, and great with Roscoe! Michelle also has a fabulous space for hosting. My fur baby got lots of cuddles and playtime. I would book with Michelle again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Michelle!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Very communicative throughout. And my dog loved her from the first moment. Joy is very gentle and loving. It gave me peace of mind to know she had senior dog experience. And the fact that she works from home was a bonus for a dog that loves companionship!”

“My cattle dog had a fantastic stay with Ian. She stayed over a week and came home happy and calm. I loved that he walked her and sent photos. A super experience for my young dog. Thank you Ian!”

“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.”

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'm new to caring for dogs professionally, I've dog and cat sat for my neighbor several times over the last five years. While I'm new to taking care of pets in a professional setting, I've cared for dogs of all kinds since I was 10 years old. I've always felt a kindred spirit for animals and treat them with the utmost respect and care. From feeding, to bathing, and walking there isn't any dog I haven't enjoyed taking care of or spending time with. I recently lost my sweet boy who was in my life for seven years and that's what brought me to Rover. Caring for pets and providing a safe and loving environment is something I enjoy doing. I can guarantee your pet will be well cared for with me. I have a pretty open schedule right now. I’ve just completed work on a temporary job so I have lots of time to care for your pets. I'm available seven days of the week right now and regularly update my calendar. I can come to your fur baby so they feel the utmost comfortable and happy. You can have peace of mind knowing that your fur baby will be cared for with full attention to detail. I can ensure a peaceful and calm environment when caring for your pets especailly senior pets who enjoy peace and quiet. If your pet needs a lot of outside time, walks are my specialty. Whatever your pet needs are I can accomodate. I'm always open to meeting with you and your pet to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for cats, and I’ve had the sweetest cat of my own, Chunky Milk. He had such a big personality and definitely kept me entertained! Living with him taught me that every cat has their own unique personality, routines, and little quirks. I understand that some cats are playful and social, while others need a little more time and space to warm up. I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat wants playtime, attention, a cozy companion, or simply someone to keep their routine on track, I’d love to give them the same love and care I gave my own Chunky Milk. 🐱🤍
About: Dog owners would love my service because I am very passionate about caring for dogs. Dogs would love my service because I give treats, unconditional love, and lots of hugs and petting. I have 3 dogs of my own and they get bathed, spoiled, treats, sleep with me and care when they are sick. In summer they get air conditioned and in winter they get by the heater. I am available anytime day or night. I will treat your dogs with the upmost respect and as if they were mine and you will be satisfied with my service and will want to bring them back. I can brush thier hair, bathe, love, and pet them. I will be honored and trusted to watch your dogs.
About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond very quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and be sure to check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that we have on a daily basis. My reviews should give you an idea of what to expect when you book with me. I will send tons of pictures and videos every day. Headed out of town?? I’d love to stay with your dogs and create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Or we can all stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. Rest assured that they will be cared for as if they were my own while having the comfort and familiarity of your home, or the tons of fun that goes on at my place. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a much smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my pack needs. Our routine is generally foods, walks, parks, poops, pees, plays, sleeps, repeat…. I am flexible and can accommodate pretty much any type of needs for your pets. I am ready to come care for your pets whenever I am available. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.

“I am visiting Santa Fe from out of town, and Stephanie took care of my high-energy Labrador for the day. My dog came back to me clean and tired, and Stephanie sent me photos and updates throughout the day. I would definitely take Margot to her again!”

“Dawn was so amazing with our dog Miles. He was new to doggy day care and she helped both of us feel comfortable throughout the whole process. She was careful, considerate, and kind and we can’t wait to work with her again.”

“We were visiting Santa Fe and needed a sitter for our basset boy Sam so we could spend a day at the spa and visit a national park. The moment I saw Victoria’s profile, I knew she was the one. When I reached out with the request she responded quickly and was happy to take Sam for the day. As soon as we arrived for the drop off, we knew we had lucked out. Victoria’s home is beautiful, in a quiet, scenic location, and clearly designed with animals in mind while staying artistic and clean. She has three friendly dogs, cats, chickens, and turkeys, which Sam loved. Victoria herself was warm and genuinely excited to meet him. We left Sam for 7 hours, and she took wonderful care of him, even walking him down the arroyo to help with his separation anxiety. When we picked him up, he was happy and relaxed with his tail wagging. This was our first time using Rover, and we found the perfect sitter on the first try. Victoria will be our go-to for every future Santa Fe trip. We highly recommend her for all your animal sitting and dog walking needs.”

“Thank you so much for taking care of our little buddy today. We super appreciate you being able to take him last minute while we went on our adventure. Dominic is in great spirits, and we can tell he had a wonderful day with you. Thank you again, and we look forward to reaching out when we are back in Santa Fe.”

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.
“Michelle was great with Chili! Chili had a great time playing with her pups! Michelle communicated well and was very responsive and accommodating! Would highly recommend!”

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
“Our dog had great fun playing with the dogs at the sitter 😁. Laurie took them on a hike one day and our dog had a great time and was nice and tired out for a calm evening 😊. 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”

“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!”

“Melissa was great! We were able to book her on short notice while visiting from out of town. She sent us tons of photos which we really appreciated. Easy to communicate with. And even made yogurt treats for our pup. Will definitely use her again ??”

“Allegra was a perfect host for our dog, Barley! We had to make kind of last minute plans and Allegra was very accommodating for our late daycare needs.

“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.”


About: I’ve always had a special love for animals and the outdoors. I grew up surrounded by pets and have had multiple pups throughout my life, including my two sweet Border Collies, Meko and Oppie. They brought so much joy and personality into my life, and caring for them taught me how much love, patience, and attention our pets deserve. I also have a background as a wilderness guide, so being outside and exploring nature is a huge part of who I am. I know how much dogs love getting outside, sniffing around, going on adventures, and simply enjoying the fresh air—and I’d love to give your pup that same experience! Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs for weeks at a time, so I’m comfortable taking on the responsibility of caring for a pet while their person is away. I’m attentive to their routines, personalities, and individual needs, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a friendly, easygoing spirit that animals seem to pick up on right away. Whether your pup wants an adventure, a long walk, some playtime, or simply a cozy companion to hang out with, I’m happy to be there for them. 🐾 I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my day-to-day life because I love being outdoors, staying active, and having animals by my side. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine, whether they need morning walks, midday check-ins, playtime, or evening care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures, but I’m also perfectly happy spending a quiet day at home keeping your pet company. My goal is to make pet care feel seamless for both you and your pet, while keeping their normal routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I’m attentive to your pet’s needs, their routine, and any special instructions you leave for me. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet seriously and will always treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. As a wilderness guide, I’m comfortable being responsible in changing environments and staying aware of my surroundings. I’m also a big believer in clear communication, so I’ll keep you updated and let you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. 🐾
About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond very quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and be sure to check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that we have on a daily basis. My reviews should give you an idea of what to expect when you book with me. I will send tons of pictures and videos every day. Headed out of town?? I’d love to stay with your dogs and create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Or we can all stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. Rest assured that they will be cared for as if they were my own while having the comfort and familiarity of your home, or the tons of fun that goes on at my place. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a much smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my pack needs. Our routine is generally foods, walks, parks, poops, pees, plays, sleeps, repeat…. I am flexible and can accommodate pretty much any type of needs for your pets. I am ready to come care for your pets whenever I am available. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.

About: Bachelors in animal science, with an emphasis in companion animal care and medicine. Two years veterinary experience. I have companion animal training experience and education. Pet care is an important part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time to exercise, feeding, and monitoring pets’ health, ensuring they get the attention and care they need every day. This routine helps me stay connected with animals and maintain my skills in handling different needs, from playful puppies to senior pets requiring extra support. I provide attentive care by staying in owners’ homes or doing daily check-ins, ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in their own environment.
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: Dog owners would love my service because I am very passionate about caring for dogs. Dogs would love my service because I give treats, unconditional love, and lots of hugs and petting. I have 3 dogs of my own and they get bathed, spoiled, treats, sleep with me and care when they are sick. In summer they get air conditioned and in winter they get by the heater. I am available anytime day or night. I will treat your dogs with the upmost respect and as if they were mine and you will be satisfied with my service and will want to bring them back. I can brush thier hair, bathe, love, and pet them. I will be honored and trusted to watch your dogs.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, from Yorkies to German Shepherds. Providing the love and care to other dogs while you’re away is my priority! To give you the peace of mind your fur baby is both physically and mentally stimulated during our time together. I am very active, love going on hikes and finding new parks in the area! I am in the end of my surgical residency making my schedule relatively flexible. While I am unable to have a dog of my own full time, I can care and love for others in the mean time! While I do live in an apartment, there is a park with walking trails right across the street that I walk daily. Staying active is an essential part of my life!

“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!”

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.
“Dawn once again took great care of our dog, Sevi, while we were visiting Santa Fe a second time. Sevi is a sensitive shepherd mix, and she gave Dawn a thumbs up! Dawn was communicative and responsible.”

“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!”

“David is a true dog lover. Our two pups quickly bonded with him and his mellow dog, Sprex, who provided great companionship both at home sleeping on David’s bed and walking on leash with the “pack” in nearby parks. We definitely will use David (and Sprex) again.”

“Michelle was patient, professional, and great with Roscoe! Michelle also has a fabulous space for hosting. My fur baby got lots of cuddles and playtime. I would book with Michelle again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Michelle!”

“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!”
