Dog Walkers in Afton, NM

“Allison is sweet and very kind. We felt comfortable with her and her communications. She followed our instructions for our dog (considerations for the heat, misting her down, checking her food and water, where to take her) and we know Gypsy was well taken care of. Recommend her and we'll book her again when we're back in the area.”

“Tommie did an amazing job with Ringo while we were gone for the weekend. She took care of him beyond extra. I hope we can still book her for next time.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail, reliability, and genuine love for animals at every stage of life. I don’t just “watch” pets — I care for them as if they were my own. I understand that each animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe and happy. I have experience working with both young and senior pets. With puppies and young dogs, I am patient and consistent with basic training reinforcement, including potty routines, leash manners, and positive behavior habits. I know how important structure is during those early months, and I make sure to maintain the routine you’ve established. For senior pets, I provide gentle, attentive care and closely monitor mobility, medication schedules, and comfort needs. I understand that older animals often need extra patience, slower walks, and more frequent check-ins, and I’m comfortable administering oral medications if needed.

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, different breeds and sizes, I’ve helped with birth of puppies, nurture sick ones too. I am a dog adoption advocate. I am not working at the moment so my schedule is pretty open. I am currently looking for a job but not in a huge hurry. While waiting I will work at my dream job ☺️Dog sitting. I will provide for the needs and safety of your pets per client requirement with much love and kindness. Having a play time is also a must. 😊

About: I have had pets my entire life-- from dogs and cats to lizards, hamsters, chickens, guinea pigs, and gerbils. I was always the little girl who was bringing home stray wildlife and begging my parents to keep it. I have been petsitting and housesitting for about 20 years. I am honest, trustworthy, and above all I care deeply about animals. I have experience with senior animals, babies, and everything in between. I am comfortable administering medication, matching your dogs energy, going on walks, cuddling on the couch, and just being a fun companion for your pet when you can't be. I also have experience with animals who have been in traumatic situations. I understand how to navigate the boundaries of a scared animal, and I am a gentle and quiet-natured person who most dogs and cats learn to trust pretty quickly. I do have a baby that I occasionally need to bring with me to jobs. He never spends the night and I keep him safely in a pop-up playpen if he’s not right with me. I have a very flexible daily and weekly routine. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and even staying overnight if desired. I am married so my spouse is able to care for my pets while I am caring for yours! My priority is making sure that your pet is comfortable, safe, and getting the care it needs. I let you tell me about their schedule, your preferences on my time at your house, and your dogs quirks. I am very amenable to adapting my routine to fit your pet's lifestyle.

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats over the course of quite a few years. I truly enjoy doing so. I love getting to see their different personalities and giving them that extra love while their people are away. I had my own dog as well for a few years. Fun fact: we shared the same birthday too! He was really my best friend. At the current moment my availability is fairly open throughout the week and anytime. I am open to mostly any hours currently. Book with me! I will make sure they are taken on walks, given some extra love, feed them, and play with them. They will be well taken care of with me.

About: Woof! Hi my name is Wyley I have a ton of experience working with dogs and caring for them. I started volunteering and working at kennels in my hometown at 14.

About: Since I was 12 years old I have been pet sitting dogs and cats. As I reached adulthood my very first adoption was my baby Brewster. He blessed me with 14 wonderful years and my fur family kept growing!! I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, a bearded dragon, a rabbit, a bird and my 15 year old has a horse. I have so much experience with all types of animals. In the past we have owned turtles, fish, a gecko and even a crawdad! :) Even though I do have a bachelors degree, I am blessed and lucky enough to be a stay at home mom where I currently take care of our house and our pets. Daily schedule is 100% flexible around other people while still maintaining the care that my animals require. In my own home I have two fenced yards. I also have a large home with two living rooms for plenty of play area. In a clients home I would allow the pet to go where the owner has stated. As well as out in the yard I would keep an ion them and do what service is required for each pet with love and care.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for many years now and had the opportunity to meet many breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve also owned both large and small dogs and currently have for fur family members at home. Being a pet owner myself and sometimes needing care for them I know how important it is to have someone that you trust and cares for them as much as you do watching them. I currently work remote from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows for me to help care for pets at almost anytime with advanced notice. When watching someone’s pet I like to take detailed notes on exactly what the pet needs and at what times. Every visit also always includes some play time and snuggles. I also have a dog that needs medication so I’m used to giving that.

About: I have been around dogs and cats my entire life and have always had pets in my home since I was a child. I truly love all animals and feel very comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. ❤️ I currently have my own dog, so I understand daily routines, responsibility, and how important it is for pets to feel safe, happy, and loved. I started dog sitting for family members around age 15, caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments, including feeding, walking, playtime, and overnight stays. This gave me hands on experience maintaining routines and understanding different pet personalities. I am also comfortable administering basic medications such as oral pills and topical treatments, always following owner instructions carefully. I worked at PetSmart as a dog bather, where I gained experience safely bathing dogs, handling different coat types, and keeping pets calm and comfortable during grooming. This helped me develop patience, gentle handling skills, and the ability to read animal behavior. I treat every pet like my own and focus on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and provide regular updates and photos so pet parents feel at ease. 🐶🐱🫶🏻 I work full time, but I’m available for weekday walks and weekend pet sitting when you need someone to care for your pets while you’re away. 🩷 A typical day in my care is calm, relaxed, and focused on making pets feel comfortable and loved. I enjoy spending time with them throughout the day, whether that’s relaxing together, watching TV, or simply keeping them company so they don’t feel alone. 🥹 I make sure to follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I also take time for enrichment and exercise, whether that’s playing outside, going for walks, or engaging them with toys. For pets who enjoy it, I also offer plenty of affection and cuddles, while always respecting their boundaries and letting them set the pace. My goal is to create a safe, low stress environment where they feel happy, secure, and cared for. ❤️

About: Hi! I’m someone who truly sees dogs as family not just pets. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of who I am. From playful puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and love, I’m comfortable with all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m compassionate, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them the comfort and companionship they deserve while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I treat every dog I watch with the same love and care I give my own. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities. I’ll make sure they feel secure, loved, and right at home. As a full-time stay-at-home mom to my little ones, my days are built around care, routine, and a lot of love which naturally carries over into how I care for dogs. Our home is already full of activity, structure, and warmth, making it a comfortable and welcoming environment for dogs. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to easily fit in walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or evening care, I’m able to stay flexible and consistent with each dog’s routine. Having little ones also means we spend a lot of time outdoors and staying active, so dogs in my care get plenty of movement, stimulation, and companionship. Balancing motherhood and dog care comes naturally to me because both are rooted in patience, attentiveness, and genuine love. I’m used to multitasking, sticking to routines, and making sure everyone in my care feels safe, happy, and cared for. I have an unfenced yard and 1 friendly medium sized male dog to keep your fur baby company, friendly neighborhood, dog park up the road
