“Jennifer is amazing. She showed up on time and did so good with my dog! I was nervous as it was my first time leaving her with a pet sitter. However, now I will be requesting Jennifer when I need her moving forward.”
“Brigit was amazing. We got pictures of our pups and she was able to bring in our packages. We have never left our dogs with anyone before and I will be using this service and Brigit again. Highly recommend her!”
“Hannah was great! She came out to meet our cat (and us) and get the run-down. Monkey seemed to like Hannah right away, which is weird for Monkey. Hannah was responsive throughout our trip and left the place spotless. I'll be happy to have Hannah cat-sit the next time our usual friend is unavailable - we are grateful she got us out of a tight spot this time!”
“As usual, Alexus did a fantastic job sitting for my dogs for a few days. She really goes above and beyond and it’s clear my girls absolutely love her!”
“As always, Ava takes great care of my Tallulah & Dennis. Always prompt and arrives when she says. I’m so appreciative of the great care she gives my 2. Especially my Dennis who doesn’t really like anyone but me. She provides regular updates and communicates often. I’m so appreciative and grateful. She is a blessing.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and reptiles since I was young. I love all animals and look forward to taking care of your fur baby! I currently work as a bartender/server. I have lots of free time to take care of animals and animals bring me a lot of happiness. I currently live in an apartment complex and have a great space for animals. We do have a dog park at the complex and I live down the street from a golf course, which has a great path to walk.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Reliable and great communication in a timely manner, which is hard to find nowadays. Malcolm was punctual, informative, and never once did I have to reach out for updates. Excellent service at an affordable price. Will definitely book again in the future”
“This was my first time using Kristen for house sitting. She did an excellent job! I have a special needs dog and she took great care of her. She was respectful of her space and body language. She gave me regular updates and feedback as to what was happening. She went out of her way to accommodate my dog. I really appreciate her thoroughness and kindness towards my animals.”
About: My family has a history of adopting older dogs and rescues with health and behavioral problems, so I have lots of experience with senior dogs and dogs who need extra care and attention. Rover is my full time job. I usually work weekday mornings and afternoons, but I'm happy to work with clients individually to come up with a schedule that works. Let me come to you! I can't accommodate pets in my home or car, so I will come to your home to care for and spend quality time with your furry friends!
“Yet again, Autumn went above and beyond in taking care of my beloved cat, Zayda. She sent awesome pictures that showed how well they were getting along, and stayed an extra night when I had to change my travel plans. I trust Autumn completely with my animals, and my animals are my life. I know that she loves my fur kids, too. Very grateful to have found her!”
“Rose is the best! My super shy kitty who normally hides the entire time I’m gone is comfortable enough around Rose that she not only comes out of hiding but plays! cat owners of shy kitties will know how big of a deal this is 😍”
About: I have had animals my whole life, and have worked in the pet industry for 6 years. My day job experience has been at 2 different local pet food stores, where I’ve learned a lot about the needs of dogs and cats, as well as body language. My old job had foster cats, so I have experience taking care of up to 10 cats at a time (feeding, litter cleaning, meds, and playtime). I also have pet sat for many of my friends and family members. I love walking! I enjoy taking my own dog on short walks or really long walks to get his energy out. I have experience with high energy dogs that may pull or not be comfortable around other dogs or people. I also have experience with puppies and kittens, and special needs pets. I’ve owned 2 disabled dogs that required diaper changes, meds, and regular bathing and cleaning up after them. I am currently going to school full time at UNM. My schedule is pretty flexible though, and I am willing to work with you! I can come before, in between, or after class and on weekends! I will always want to come meet you and your pet before I start the service. I will take notes on everything so I can keep your pet on their routine, no matter how specific. I want to make you and your pet 100% comfortable! I am experienced with reading body language with pets, so I can tell if your pet is too overwhelmed or nervous. I also love sending updates, including photos and videos, to let you know how your fur baby is doing!
“Skyler was very attentive to our senior cats needs. She went out of her way to make Seeker was comfortable with her, and she was very reliable about communicating with us daily.”
“Heaven went above and beyond in caring for my dog Bingo! She was extremely diligent to my concerns (Bingo is reactive to other dogs and strangers) and immediately put me at ease. She took meticulous notes on Bingo’s routine to ensure the least stressful time for my dog while I was away. She gave me excellent daily reports and even took the time to teach Bingo new games and tricks! My house was left even tidier than I left it! Thank you so much Heaven! 10/10!!”
“Becca was great with my GSD pup, Izzy, who can sometimes be a handful. She was prompt, professional, kept in constant communication and sent several updates and pictures, from which it was clear to see that Izzy had a blast.”

Michelle did an excellent job of caring for our Labrador and two cats in our home. She was very communicative and kept in touch with us the whole 10 days we were gone. She sent photos and little updates. She made sure the dog got regular walks, even taking him hiking one day! She also left the house spotless. She really went above and beyond! She clearly loves and cares for animals! Trustworthy , dependable and she’s great to work with! I highly recommend her!
We were so grateful that Daniel was able to watch our dog on such short notice! He did a great job with our dog who has severe separation anxiety! He is a great conversationalist and we felt comfortable having him at our house. We look forward to having him watch our dog in the future!
Hannah was great! She came out to meet our cat (and us) and get the run-down. Monkey seemed to like Hannah right away, which is weird for Monkey. Hannah was responsive throughout our trip and left the place spotless. I'll be happy to have Hannah cat-sit the next time our usual friend is unavailable - we are grateful she got us out of a tight spot this time!
Great experience! Heaven is very kind, communicative, and very thorough. From start to finish, I felt that she really wanted to make sure both me and my dog felt comfortable. Especially since this was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family. I highly recommend and plan on rebooking with her in the future. :)
Cannot recommend Lily highly enough! Communicative and went out of her way to make sure she had everything she needed before house/pet sitting. She made my travels so much easier knowing everyone was well cared for. Came home to happy pets and a well cared for space. Thank you thank you!!
We had a very positive experience overall and would absolutely hire Ava again. Once the pet-sitting began, she was dependable and consistent, took initiative without needing much hand-holding, and kept us updated throughout. We especially appreciated that she let us know when supplies were running low and that she cleaned up after herself - those thoughtful details made a big difference and gave us peace of mind. She clearly cared for our pets and our home, and we felt they were in good hands. The one piece of constructive feedback would be around communication before the job started. We had some difficulty reaching her in the days leading up to the visit and again the morning of, which created a little stress on our end. That said, once everything was underway, communication improved significantly, and Ava was reliable and proactive throughout. Overall, she did a very good job, and we’d feel comfortable recommending her to others looking for a caring and capable pet sitter.
Luca took care of our dogs and house for a full week, and we could not have asked for a better first experience with an in-home pet sitter. We were especially nervous because our newer dog is extremely timid around new people, but Luca was incredibly patient and took the time to build trust with her before we left. That effort made us feel so much more comfortable going into the trip. Right before we left, our older dog also started having stomach issues and needed a specialized multi-step diet. Luca followed all of the instructions carefully, kept us updated every day on how she was doing (including stool updates), and handled both outdoor cleanup and a few indoor accidents without complaint. We came home to two happy, well cared for dogs. It was obvious our pets were comfortable and loved while we were away. We would absolutely book with Luca again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter.
Emma was a phenomenal house-sitter for our busy home of two cats and a high energy 7-month old puppy. She was a lifesaver accepting our week-long sitting request with just a week of notice. She took great photos of all three animals and gave us detailed updates of daily activities. Emma followed all requests with ease and even changed up her work schedule to accommodate our puppy’s needs. We would happily book her services again. Thank you Emma!!
We hired Keri to pet/house sit for us while we were away over a 2 week period. I could not be more thrilled with her work! All 4 of my pets adored her. Keri sent so many pictures and videos. I never had to worry about how they were doing. I loved seeing all the fun they were having, especially the wonderful walks my dog got to go on. Keri left our house in amazing condition. Everything was clean including fresh bed linens on the bed she used. She even left a note detailing what pet supplies we needed to replenish soon. It made coming home so easy. The pets were excited to see us, but didn't freak out and get overwhelmed when we walked through the door. That was a sign to me that they had been thoroughly taken care of and loved while we were gone.
Vy did an amazing job looking after our Cosmo! she abide by all of our requests, and was able to fit in in such short notice! Cosmo was super happy that somebody stayed with him, it was his first day alone without either of us, so being able to find a sitter to watch him when he’s just a puppy was amazing! I will definitely book with Vy again in the future!
Kristen is fantastic! She has done drop ins for me several times before and is great with Betty, prompt and very communicative . This was my and Betty’s first time having someone stay overnight with her. Kristen was very patient with Betty who was nervous and shy suddenly about me not being home at all. I highly recommend her and plan on using her services again in the future!
