“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!”
“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.”
“Kendell is wonderful to work with!! She takes great care of my girl! I get lots of updates and pics when I’m away! I knew it was good the last time when my dog was soooo excited to see her!!”
“Angel did an amazing job with our two senior dogs. One of them was having serious stomach upset when they were dropped off. Not only did Angel wash both dogs who were starting to become malodorous, but she helped stabilize Bella by monitoring her diet. They also were dropped off without their coats and Angel provided a sweater for my more fragile dog. Angel went above and beyond to make my dogs comfortable and heartily recommend her.”
“I can't tell you how much more we enjoyed our vacation knowing that Shilo was being taken care of so well. And to receive random text pictures of his activities just melted our hearts. A+ and would definitely use again.”
“Stephanie was awesome! She was incredibly friendly, flexible, and took such great care of Norman. It was immediately obvious how much she genuinely loves dogs and that caring for them is a real passion of hers. We felt completely comfortable leaving Norman with her and would absolutely book with Stephanie again. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda was amazing with my dog Coco! She was caring, reliable, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Coco was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when I got back. I would absolutely trust Amanda to watch Coco again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.”
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.
“Hannah was amazing! She took such great care of Olive, taking her for walks, playing with her and sending us frequent updates and pics. Olive had a wonderful vacation, and we were able to enjoy ours knowing she was in such good hands. I would rebook in a heartbeat if we ever return to Santa Fe.”
“We were so grateful to find Michelle on Rover! Great communication, attention to detail and knowing our geriatric guy was in great hands was wonderful! Highly recommend! Look forward to booking for future boarding. Thank you again!”
“I was very nervous to have to leave my cats overnight, especially since they can get nervous around strangers, but they came home still happy and calm. Mayra made me feel very confident in her ability to care and she did just that. Thank you!”
“Roberta took very good care of Ginger. She also checked in often to let me know how she was doing. She also checked in when there was any concerns or questions that she had. Ginger was very happy and I had no worries. Would definitely recommend Roberta.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Charity is great. She has taken of my dog for the pass and he is absolutely excited to go visit Charity and her dog Oatmeal. She takes the dogs on regular daily walks and takes the dogs to the park.”

“Riley to great care of Marigold! He sent lots of pics, gave great daily updates and even humored me by watering my mostly dead plant sprouts. Would book him again-100%!”
“Samantha was absolutely delightful and super communicative. My very unfriendly cat warmed up to her and even sat in her lap. Excellent care and will absolutely hire her again for my next trip!”
“We had a great experience with Anna! She is friendly and reliable and took great care of our kitty while we were away. She took the time to stop by for a meet and greet before our travels, which I really appreciated. Would love to book with her again in the future!”
“My cats were so well cared for, they barely noticed when I got home. My senior cat needs medicine and can be a brat about taking it. Ian made sure he got his meds. I would absolutely book Ian again.”
“Jenna is very professional and caring. She met with me before my trip then helped a frightened kitty. Her first pet picture showed Cricket hiding under the bed. The last picture showed Cricket nuzzling her legs. I highly recommend this sitter for your pet needs. She is reliable and compassionate.”
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. 🐱🤍
“I requested some drop ins while I was out on vacation to make sure my cats were doing alright. My cats were properly cared for even though they were hiding most of the time, and they were perfectly content when I got home. Communication was excellent too.”
About: I have taken care of cats all my life. I owe 3 boy cats & have been a foster parent to cats through Feline and friends! Friends have relied on me to check in on their fur babies and I would like to be able to do the same.
About: I grew up with cats and have been a dedicated pet sitter for more cats than I can count! I cared for 6 cats (at once) while living in Hawaii...kittens, gift bearing farm cats and hungry strays. From feedings to litter box clean up, administering meds, play time and affectionate touch, I'm here to help while you're away and give your pets the love they need. I'm an intuitive artist and healer and very attuned to how animals express what they want and need. Rest assured, your cat will be adored and cared for while you are away, even if only for a day!
About: I absolutely love cats and have found that I am able to read their subtle communication cues very easily. I've honed these skills by spending many hours with cats, petting them and getting to know each of them for the remarkably unique beings that they are. I feel a deep connection to these amazing creatures and am always honored to connect with any cat. I would love to meet yours!
“Joshua was excellent, managed the strict diet of our growing kitten with IBS, gave us regular hilarious updates, and managed to get on the good side of our other cranky cat.”
“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!”
“Vicki did great with my fussy cat. Philly doesn’t take to strangers very easily but she became comfortable with Vicki quickly. Philly allowed Vicki to brush her and played some. Vicki also did some extras around the house as needed. Very good communication with pictures.”
“Marie quickly responded to my request and set up a meet and greet. With short notice she was able to care for my two pups. Her dog is a total sweetheart as well and they all got along great! I definitely will be requesting Marie’s services again in the near future. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I’ve sat for three very different families and lifestyles. My preference is to ask families as much about their routine as possible so as not to make any assumptions or decisions for them. Cats are smart and pick up on changes in routine quickly and I’m very sensitive to that. The closer we stick to their normal care, the better, in my experience.

“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!”
“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!”
“Stephanie and her boys were everything I could have asked for in a pet sitter and Rover experience! 🐶💜 Stephanie was wonderful and knew how to be attentive to my recent rescue and slightly nervous pup, Bella. Bella settled in really quickly and had the best day. I was so happy to see how happy she was when I picked her up at the end of the day. I would highly recommend Stephanie for pet sitting services. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for pet sitting so Bella can have more best days! Thank you so much Stephanie! Bella and I are both so grateful for your standard of care and concern. 💜”
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
“Kendall was fantastic! She did a great job of taking care of Fritz and was very communicative and provided helpful updates throughout Fritz’s time with her. She was so helpful last minute! Highly recommend!”
“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: 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.

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!”
“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!”

“My boys were instantly comfortable with Cressandra. It was remarkable. They are shy dogs, but day 1 of doggy daycare they already did zoomies, made themselves at home on the couch, and ate their full meal.”

About: Hi! My name is Jamie, and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I had a Labrador Retriever for 16 years, and I currently care for three dogs of my own: a German Shepherd, a Labrador, and a Beauceron. Living with multiple breeds—especially working and high-energy dogs—has given me strong experience with daily routines, exercise needs, and individualized care. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter and completed a mentorship where I worked closely with a behavior specialist. Through that experience, I learned basic dog training and handling skills and am comfortable reinforcing commands such as sit, stay, down, leave it, drop it, and come. I focus on patience, consistency, and positive interactions to help dogs feel safe and confident. I truly believe every dog deserves attentive, compassionate care from someone who treats them like family. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or house sitting, I take the time to understand each dog’s needs and personality so they receive the best care possible. I’m also happy to help with house sitting and maintaining your dog’s regular routine while you’re away. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. — Jamie I'm avaliable most days of the week plus weekends and keep my calendar updated when I will be away. I can work multiple days too. When caring for pets, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I take time to learn each pet’s personality so I can adjust my approach, whether they are energetic, shy, or need extra patience.

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.

About: Upon having taken care of pets for quite some time now. I have learned that all animals need love and compassion like us. I have cared for a variety of animals from mice to snakes and cats to goats. All of the time learning what to do and not to do with every animal. I've always had animals in my life ever since I was a little girl and I loved to caring for them. I was a foster parent for cats a few years back but had to stop when we moved. I've own a few dogs and enjoy the company they have to give to us. I would be more than happy to take care of your babies and treat them as my own.
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.

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: In the past, I have taken care of dogs and cats for family members. Occasionally, I am also volunteering to walk my neighbor (schitsu) dog. I am available on the days when I am off work (usually Wed, Sat, Sun). I will know my work schedule a month in advance. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can provide play time. I am not afraid of large breeds and physically capable of walking large dog.
About: I am a certified dog and cat lover (I have had both as pets over the years). I've cared for animals of all ages, temperaments and breeds in my many years of pet sitting with love and affection. Currently I am house/pet sitting in New Mexico as I decide if I am relocating back. Available Nov 8 to 18th as well as after Dec 13th 2026 I had a Great Dane Weimeraner mix for 12 years so I am comfortable with large dogs. I have dog /cat/ house sat for 24 years as well as being hired professionally to care take properties on the island of Hawaii, in Portland,Oregon, Los Angeles, Florida and New Mexico (People trust me to take care of their luxury properties and beloved animals!) I'm a great communicator, neat, clean responsible mature Female artist. My grandfather was a veterinarian in Greenwich Village and I'd visit him in his office as a kid. I was in AWE of what he did. He sent a duck home with my Mom one time and there is a pic of me in the bath with a duck at age 5. I worked in a holistic vet's office in LA as an all around assistant, caring for people's pets post surgery, walking lots and lots of dogs, assisting with minor surgical procedures, welcoming people and pets into the office. I am comfortable giving medicine, walking your dog, playing with your cat, treating your home as if it were my own. I'd love to be on your rover roster as someone you can count on to help you with your beloved pet! I'm a full time artist (and budding author) with a home office and studio in old NE neighborhood of St. Pete. My hours are my own so I am extremely flexible to accommodate you and your pet's needs. Afternoons and early evening are ideal times for me but I am happy to include mornings as well. Whatever is needed!

I will be happy to care for your pet in your home. Currently I am unable to host animals where I am staying. I will exercise, feed and spend time with your critters in your absence and follow your instructions for their care.
About: I am an absolute cat person and I've been taken care of my in-law's cats and convinced my husband 3 years ago to adopt our own furr-babies. I will take care of your little ones as if they were mine. It is important that they are taken care of but it is also important that they don't feel lonely or left out. I will go the extra mile and spend time with them. Gaining their trust to get affection from them or play with them is key. I am happy to spend extra time with them with no extra charges. Cats affections are the reward! I am flexible in terms of hours and home office. If I know your schedule in advance I can work from home and take care of your cats at any time during the day. If your cats let me, I will play with them, cuddle them, and spend extra time with them. But the most important things are their feeding routine, making sure they're hydrated and to provide a clean cat litter box for their well-being.
“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.”

They have a rotty and a german shepherd mix. I love doing it and my daughter loves them as well. I figured sense we love it so much I should see if I can get paid for it! I have been watching both dogs and cats for about 5 years now for both friend's and family whenever needed. I am not scared of pit bulls or any breed. I believe how you raise them is how they act. I am willing to deal with any kind of breed. I LOVE THEM ALL!
About: I’ve been taking care of big and small dogs for my friends and family for a long time. I have done everything for the dogs including feeding, bathing, walking and over night sitting for them.

“Angel did an amazing job with our two senior dogs. One of them was having serious stomach upset when they were dropped off. Not only did Angel wash both dogs who were starting to become malodorous, but she helped stabilize Bella by monitoring her diet. They also were dropped off without their coats and Angel provided a sweater for my more fragile dog. Angel went above and beyond to make my dogs comfortable and heartily recommend her.”
“I can't tell you how much more we enjoyed our vacation knowing that Shilo was being taken care of so well. And to receive random text pictures of his activities just melted our hearts. A+ and would definitely use again.”
“Stephanie was awesome! She was incredibly friendly, flexible, and took such great care of Norman. It was immediately obvious how much she genuinely loves dogs and that caring for them is a real passion of hers. We felt completely comfortable leaving Norman with her and would absolutely book with Stephanie again. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda was amazing with my dog Coco! She was caring, reliable, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Coco was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when I got back. I would absolutely trust Amanda to watch Coco again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.”
“Hannah was amazing! She took such great care of Olive, taking her for walks, playing with her and sending us frequent updates and pics. Olive had a wonderful vacation, and we were able to enjoy ours knowing she was in such good hands. I would rebook in a heartbeat if we ever return to Santa Fe.”
“Roberta took very good care of Ginger. She also checked in often to let me know how she was doing. She also checked in when there was any concerns or questions that she had. Ginger was very happy and I had no worries. Would definitely recommend Roberta.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Calista and her roommates were amazing! They loved having my pups! With her professional expertise in animal care I felt very safe leaving them with her. She kept me updated everyday and whenever I asked with pics and videos! I can’t thank them enough! Highly recommended 100%”
“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. ?”
