House Sitting Vista Grande

“Daniel (Danny), is one of the kindest individuals we've ever met. He came to us as a referral from another one of his clients we met at our local doggie park. She couldn't say enough about how happy she was with his care. When he came to our home for the first meet and greet he immediately gravitated to the pets and likewise, they warmed right up to him. Danny is perfect in his role as house and pet sitter. He's authentic and trustworthy. Also, while we were on vacation he communicated with us about the fur babies and text us photos. This was very comforting to us as pet owners. We would highly recommend Danny to anyone looking for a pet/house sitter. He's a gem!”

“Skyler was a great pet sitter and house guest! She watched my two cats for a week. She shared a lot of updates and pictures the whole time. My cats were very happy and unbothered when I came home. I’ll definitely use Skyler again for future trips!”

“My daughter and i went on a toadtrip to CA to visit potential colleges for about 10 days. I contacted a lot of people on Rover somewhat last minute. Faris was the first to respond! And I am so happy and appreciative that I chose him! He is the absolute best! He's so kind and friendly and professional and funny and totally loves my 2 husky brothers. He's making home-made dog food due to my pups sensitive digestion. He walks them daily if not twice a day when its not too hot. He's house sitting as well and stays with my guys most of the time. He's very aware of protecting them from the heat. He's a great communicator. He listened to me about the dog training Ive dome so he could keep it up while Im away. He sends messages daily with walking pics and others. He often tells me how much he loves my Huskies! I am overjoyed that I found him!! I know without a doubt that my Pups are having the time of their lives! Thank you Faris!!!”

“Jamie and Patrick did a great job caring for our pets during our 10 day trip! They sent regular updates, took our dog for walks, and took care of all our pets needs so that we could relax and not worry at all during our vacation! We definitely plan to use them again!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. From dogs and cats to horses, birds, fish, and even ferrets, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my days with so many wonderful animals over the years. Each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and companionship, and I carry that experience with me into every pet I care for. Right now, I share my home with a lively crew—a sweet senior Husky hybrid who’s 15 years old, a playful 7-month-old Cattle Dog, two affectionate cats (one a sprightly senior of 14 years), and a handful of fish who bring calm and beauty to my space. Because of them, I have firsthand experience with pets at every stage of life. I understand the patience and special attention seniors need, as well as the energy and safe guidance puppies and kittens require as they grow. My passion for animals has inspired me to pursue a career as a Veterinary Technician, but no matter the path, one thing is certain: caring for animals will always be at the heart of what I do. I love spending time outdoors with pets, going on walks, playing their favorite games, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet snuggles and gentle care, I’ll treat them like one of my own. When your furry (or feathered, or finned!) family members are with me, you can feel confident that they’ll be cared for with warmth, patience, and lots of love. I’m available bright and early in the mornings all the way through the evening for drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins. My regular availability is from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM every day of the week, weekends included. I understand that every pet and family has different routines, so I’m happy to be flexible and work around the times that suit you best. I’m also available most weekends for house sitting, giving you peace of mind that your pets (and home) are well cared for while you’re away. If there’s ever a time I won’t be available, I’ll always update my schedule in advance so you’ll never be left guessing. My goal is to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets! I am able to travel throughout the county and city, and I’m comfortable caring for pets in a wide variety of environments, including apartments, houses, farm properties, sidewalks, parks, and outdoor settings. No matter the location, I make it a priority to ensure pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I follow all owner instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, or special accommodations. Maintaining consistency is important, and I will make sure your pets’ routines are carried out to your exact standards. While house sitting, I provide ongoing attention and companionship throughout the day, and during walks or check-ins, your pets will always have my full, undivided focus. I ensure that pets have access to fresh water, proper meals, and any other care items they may need. I am also fully comfortable working in all types of weather and terrain, so your pets’ care will never be disrupted by outside conditions.

“Tatiana was an amazing sitter for my three pups! She was super easy to communicate with and was able to come meet me and the dogs and check out our home. She appreciated the house and dog notes I left and followed them perfectly! My dogs quickly fell in love with her and miss her already! I’m so happy we found her.”

“We were away for 23 days on a long road trip, and our sitter did an amazing job taking care of our dogs while we were gone. She was responsible and communicative. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us during such a long trip. Highly recommend!”

About: Volunteered at a vet clinic & pet sat for friends and family & discovered the joy of comforting pets when they're feeling anxious and home sick. I am pursuing a master's in computer science at UNM, and my schedule can be flexible. I will be home for the most part, but if I ever need to step away it's only for a couple hours. My boyfriend and I work as a team in caring for our dogs, and we do the same for our clients. It's normal for your pet to feel homesick, so we do our best to make them feel like they are at home and give them the quality time and affection they are used to from their loved ones ❤️ Baxter is 9 yo pit mix & Chiqui is an 8 yo Pomeranian/chihuahu. We have a small fenced yard and a kennel that Baxter uses for whenever we have to leave the house to run errands. Our dogs sleep in their beds upstairs in our bedroom, and we set up your pet's bed next to us as well. We typically ask clients to bring their pet's bed or crate/kennel and a blanket or toy they like to cuddle with to remind them of home 🤍 If you could also pack their food, food bowl, and leash for their stay, that would be great! 🐾

“Tracy is just what we were looking for! We have struggled to find someone to care for our fur babies. Spike wants lots of attention and Jake can be a challenge as he is very shy and hesitant with new people and can be reactive and sometimes unpredictable. We chose Tracy because of her extensive experience with reactive dogs. Tracy came to our house for a couple of visits with Spike and Jake while we were home and we graduated to Tracy coming by without us being there to give Jake some time to get to know her one on one. We were then gone on vacation for 10 days. Tracy sent regular update, detailing each days activities and Jakes progress. She was fantastic with Jake, she was so patient with him. It took about 2 to 3 days for Jake to completely warm up. Thanks to Tracy's knowledge with his temperament, she took the time to let him adjust on he own timeline. Giving him his space when asked for and then giving the attention and love when he was ready. By the end of day three it appeared the routine was back to normal and Jake was happy and comfortable. Spike was unexpectedly a little challenging too, he was demanding of her attention and put her to the test daily with demand barking. Tracy was a trooper and didn't let Spike take advantage of her, instead she endured the barking and used her knowledge as a Trainer to redirect his focus. Soon they found their routine as well. Knowing Tracy's love for dogs and especially her commitment to helping dogs like Jake made her a great fit for our family. This was the first vacation we had taken where we didn't worry, we knew the boys were in good hands. The ability to go on vacation and not feel that pit in my stomach if they would be safe and well cared for was priceless! We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to find a true professional, caring sitter who you can trust so you can leave your babies without guilt or worry!”

About: In college I was a house and pet sitter. I have had pets since I was in elementary school and am now a senior. I currently have three dogs of my own. I’m emotionally intelligent and good to work with. I work a half day as an Occupational Therapist educator in Wednesdays and as an OT practitioner on Fridays. I would be available in the afternoons on these days. I will not take care of pets in my home but am happy to come to yours to care for, walk, pet and feed your fur babies.

“Greg was patient with both me and the boisterous beasts. He looked after the gardens, the dogs, the pond, the fish, and our sensibilities. If you have a complicated situation like ours Greg is a super good fit. Highly recommend him.”
