“Lily is a wonderful and attentive doggie-sitter! Our girl got along beautifully with her and her furry family, and had so much fun while she stayed there. Lily sent great photo updates and videos throughout our girl's stay, and it was clear how much she enjoyed her own doggie vacation while we were away. We look forward to booking with Lily again.”
“Jonny was a great communicator and even though my little guy is high strung/anxious I felt he was in good hands during my quick getaway. Would definitely utilize Jonny as a caretaker again if needed. Thanks a bunch!”
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.
“Michelle is great, I’d sit my dog Mamie with her anytime. Really responsive and conscientious, and she even gave my senior dog medication this weekend. Thanks Michelle.”
“Leahlani Was fantastic. She took great care of my pup and was very responsive with communication. Sam had a ton of fun during his visit, and I picked him up happy and very tired from all the playing he got to do.”
“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'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.
“Patricia was a great dog sitter for our Gracie. Gracie was well cared for and had a blast playing with Patricia’s dogs Gila and Cedar. Gracie came back to us happy, content and tired! We could tell she had a lot of fun and attention. Patricia has a big yard and good dog sense and I wouldn’t hesitate to board Gracie there again.”
“Good communication, smooth drop off and pick up, reasonable rate. Was very welcoming to Nala and made her comfortable with other dogs Will see her in our future trips through Sante Fe”
“Ashleigh was amazing! We had to board our dog for the weekend and she did a great job. She sent pictures and he was happy as can be when I picked him up. It was the first time boarding him with someone and we will be using her services again!”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care my cat, Leilani, received. Becca went truly above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and safe while I was away. She pays close attention to every detail, handles all the tasks without issue, and has a calm, reassuring presence that my cat really needs when I'm away. What sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares about animals. It’s obvious that their wellbeing is her top priority, and that made all the difference for Leilani. The updates and photos she sent were thoughtful and detailed, which meant a lot to me and made being away so much easier. Leilani is doing amazingly thanks to her care. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”
About: Over the years, I have cared for cats with varying personalities and medical needs. I am comfortable administering both liquid and pill medications. If your cat is social, I am happy to interact and play. If your cat prefers to be alone, I am comfortable cozying up with a book and just being present.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Pecos
“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!”
“Highly recommend. I was visiting Santa Fe & needed care for a day I would be out too long to leave my little guy alone. Stephanie was very accommodating - we did a meet & greet the day before & I was completely at ease leaving Rocco with her. Stephanie has such a calm presence - you know your pet will be well-cared for.”
“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!”
“Thank you Angel and Jon for watching over Jo Jo. I appreciate your service, and I felt an immediate ease with you both and your lovely home. You are obviously experienced, with a caring love for animals. Thank you so much!”
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.
About: Pets growing up were 3 dogs Lacy, Maya and Frodo as well as many kitties. Oso was my Cat, we had him from the time I was 4-14years old. We also had a chicken coop we were responsible for, horses that were our landlords but that we fed, and a fish tank with guppies and sucker fish. My 1st gig watching someone else’s pet, was for an elderly woman at my church when I was about 12. Milo was an older, golden retriever. I walked him, cleaned his outside restroom area, fed, bathed, and blow-dryed him. Family and friends have always reached out to me for help over the years, I have cared for all pets. Rottweilers, pit bulls, huskies, small dogs, handicap animals, both cats and dogs. I am great with communicating and accustomed to following the routines their owners have set for them as I believe that is most respectful. My schedule is either 8am-1pm or 2-8pm. I have a 1hour lunch and am home otherwise. I usually have 2 days off a week so will also be home on those days. I have stone floors, no carpet, and live in a non-smoking apartment. I have a small backyard with dirt area and kennel where they usually take small potty breaks aside from walks and dog parks!
“Dawn was an incredible sitter. She made my normally anxious German Shepherd feel at ease and gave her a wonderful experience playing with other dogs. Would absolutely book her again.”

About: Hello! My name is Kara. I work from home so I have flexible hours to take care of your pupper. I can't have a dog where I live, but as a dog-lover, I so enjoy getting the opportunity to care for other people's pets. I've watched big and small dogs from beagles and french bull dogs to greyhounds, and great pyrenees. I have experience with old dogs, puppies, and everything I between. I can administer medicine as well. I'm happy to provide references from past dog sitting experiences. I'm looking forward to meeting you and you doggo. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions at all. I work from home, so caring for dogs helps me get away from my desk and outside. My ideal scenario is staying with a dog longer term (a week or more) so I can establish a relationship with a pup and get on their schedule. I am great at fitting into your dog’s routine and your home’s specific environment. Happy to accommodate any rules you have for where your dog can and can’t go, and happy to take advantage of parks, trails, yard space etc. Near your home. Also happy to take your dog on longer hikes if appropriate.

“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.”
“Our dog, Ailyn, had a great time with Jessica and her animals. Ailyn was fascinated with the cats and between them and Clara she had a blast and played hard during her stay.”
“Allegra and her family took very good care of Ginger. Ginger needs shots every 12hrs and does not always eat right away when she is given food and Allegra adapted to both of these. She also reached out letting me know how Ginger was doing or if there was any questions. Would recommend”
“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.”
“Emily was fantastic and went above and beyond for my pup (energetic 8-month old golden retriever). She was responsible; communicative, friendly, flexible, knowledgeable and above all kind to my young dog . She took him to work with her, made sure got varied and fun exercise, reinforced his training and showed him a very good time. Highly recommend this sitter!”
“Ashleigh was amazing! We had to board our dog for the weekend and she did a great job. She sent pictures and he was happy as can be when I picked him up. It was the first time boarding him with someone and we will be using her services again!”
