“Kind, patient, helpful, friendly, professional… Those are just some of the words I would use to describe Holly and Robert. I’m very thankful for their help with my standard poodle.”


2. Brittany M.

“Brittany was cheerful and friendly, and seemed to enjoy caring for my dogs. She was also responsive in letting me know how they were doing and what was going on. I’ll definitely use her again hen I need a dog sitter.”


3. Sam D.

“Sending Jyrah to care with Sam is such a joy. Sam is so attentive to Jyrah and her energy level and Jyrah loves her so much, she can hardly wait to get to her when she greets her in the mornings as Jyrah stays with Sam for day care. She most recently cared for Jyrah while I was on travel and I was so relieved to know how dedicated Sam is to going the extra mile to ensure she is in tuned with Jyrah's needs and her tendencies to need some additional connection at times.”


4. Kimberly W.


“Kimberly is fantastic! She was very accommodating to my unique schedule at the hospital and always responds quickly. I also greatly appreciated how she gave me some tips to help with my puppy’s habit of marking. Highly recommend her for any needs/cares your doggo has.”


5. Esperita L.

“Esperita was great with our puppy Chloe. It was our first time leaving Chloe with someone but I felt good leaving her in good care. Esperita provided updates and pictures throughout the day which helped keep my worries at bay. Chloe had a great time and fun with her fur friends. Would absolutely use Esperita again!”


6. James D.

“James has been awesome with foster George (AKA Houdini) who has been on the euthanasia list 3 times. . . and his next time will be his last. George is the sweetest dog ever but his escapism has been problematic. James has been his life saver while I am at work, and has provided George playmates and activity throughout the day. James is DEFINITELY worth considering if you need care for your dog. . . (Just don't steal George's spot. . . We need James.)”


7. Christina L.

“Amazing amazing amazing ! Very amazing communication and stormy absolutely loves her and her daughter ! The space is amazing for pets and love how many updates she gave”


8. Onrae H.

“For our spur of the moment day care needs, Onrae was great and accommodated our last minute schedule change. We could tell he is comfortable with dogs and our Koda Bear came back to us safe and happy.”


9. Cassi R.

“First time for my dogs to experience doggie day care. They returned happy, a bit tired (a good thing!), and I suspect they'll look forward to their next experience. Cassi was very attentive to their needs.”


10. Charles L.


“Charles was extremely professional and responsible and he took EXCELLENT care of my lab, Tamale, with the help of his dog, Shiso. He sent regular pictures of their walks, the dogs playing together in the yard together, cuddling for naps, and having meals and snacks- it was obvious she was in good hands. Tamale had a wonderful time, was thoroughly exhausted and most importantly, she was VERY well cared for. I felt so fortunate to find such a warm, wonderful home in my neighborhood with a kind human and his family to look after my girl while I worked and my husband was out of town. She already misses her new friends. Thanks again, Charles! We will absolutely be booking again.”


11. Diane F.


“As I drove up Diane's driveway on the second day of doggie daycare, my dog began barking enthusiastically and wagging her tail. My dog's review is the one that counts and she lets me know in a thousand different ways that she is so happy with Diane. In fact, when I go to pick up my dog from Diane's house, she always wants to spend a more time there. When it comes to finding the best sitter, I've already done the work for you. After attending many meet and greets, I can say with certainty that Diane is the best in Albuquerque. Diane has a great environment for the dogs. She has a large, grassy area outside and lots of shade. She lets the dogs come inside and has crates set up for rest time. When my dog is with Diane, she is learning and good habits are being reinforced. I also feel like Diane loves my dog and is glad that my dog is with her. I get pictures during every stay!”


12. Akshay & Payal P.
“Payal and Akshay watched my dog bane while my husband and I were out of town. They were so great. Open communication, they responded to all of my crazy texts, and they sent plenty of pictures which I asked for ahead of time. Bane seemed to have had a great time. I will 100% be using them again in the future.”


13. Jennifer H.

“Jennifer was very flexible with our schedule. She is very friendly and our dog did not have any problems with her pets. I strongly recommend her sitter's service!”


14. Patrick H.

“Patrick continues to be a wonderful dog sitter for Sylvester. Sylvester is always excited to get to Patrick's house. He is extremely reliable and a wonderful communicator. Recently, he was able to watch our dog very last minute when an emergency came up. He was so flexible and really kind while we sorted through things. We are so appreciative.”
