Pet Sitting in Albuquerque

“Lauren did a great job communicating what was going on with my cat while I was away. I really appreciated her willingness to be flexible, like turning on the AC for him, when needed. She’s a kind person who’s great with animals, and I’d definitely recommend booking with her!”

“Leah is our go-to sitter!! She is reliable, communicative, and so sweet to our fur family. We appreciate her pictures, videos, and diligent care of our three very charismatic kitties. Thanks Leah!! 😻”

“Greg is amazing! He was able to help us out last minute and our Kenzie loved him. He spent time with both my cat and dog and gave them cuddles and attention when we were away. Highly recommend him!”

“Fiery is great with our dogs. She’s been very flexible about doing multiple drop-ins in preparation for a 10-day overnight. These visits have increased our comfort level with leaving our babies for that long.”

“Angela is a delight. She spends a lot of time with each pet, doing things that make each one feel comfortable and seen. She even cozied up on the floor to make a newer member of the pet family feel like home. She also sends tons of pictures, which is great! I love seeing them being well taken care of. Definitely will ask to help again in the future.”

“Jessica was a great cat sitter! All instructions were followed and she was great at communicating. Skittles seemed very happy upon my return! I would book with her again.”

About: I pet sat dogs when I was younger and cats for years. I have more time now and would love to give your babies a lot of attention. 🐶 😺 I currently work from home Sunday, Tues and Thursday, with a LOT of flexibility. I am available overnight 7 days per week with little notice and can adapt to your pets needs. I can care for pets in your home and follow your rules and your pets needs as directed. I'm an adult with a grown kiddo who also loves animals and can give extra attention! ❤️

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up my family had horses, geese, cats, dogs, and chickens. I have a plethora of experience working with animals of all kinds. Bathing, walking, feeding, I have experience in it all. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I'm working part-time right now, and having just graduated college I now have plenty of time and energy for caring for your pet! I am fairly flexible about my time and so I can work with you and whatever schedule you may have! I am currently living in an apartment with two other furry friends, a cat, and a dog! Both are friendly but space is limited. I am not able to care for other pets in the home as space is limited. I am able to take them out for long jaunts in the neighborhood and give plenty of care and attention along the way.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors animals all throughout college so I have lots of experience! I’m very nurturing and kind and I even have my own kitty that is very friendly. I have a hybrid schedule at work so I’m work from home Monday and Tuesday and I am a home body so on the weekends I like to cook and prepare for the week. A typical day with your animal looks like playtime in the morning and a walk in the evening! If it’s a cat I make sure to play throughout the day and especially at night so they and I sleep well! They have my whole living space to wander and climb, I have a big cat tree that looks out a window, couches they can lounge on and multiple cat condos around my apartment! If I am going to your home I will read and relax with them when I’m not playing with them and I will feed based on your schedule for your pet.

“August was a perfect fit! Our rescue is very sensitive to new people and was immediately at ease during the meet and greet. While we were away, August was patient, kind and sweet whenever Mina would need more alone time or was curious to get to know him better. He was on time, responsive and reliable. We’ll absolutely work with August again in the future!”

Amanda D.

“Skyler is absolutely amazing! She watched my pup while a neighbor was moving in and handled it amazingly. She cares for my dog like her own! Will definitely book again!”

About: I've taken care of all sorts of animals since I was little whether dogs, cats, or horses. I have trained every dog I've ever had. I am working part-time and i'm a full time student. But my weekends are empty and I need some extra activities to do for mental health and fun. I am back at school but I usually have long break in between classes to go for quick walks or drop ins! I am always playful and gentle with my pets. I enjoy playing fetch and running with my dogs. I enjoy giving them their commands and treats in return. I enjoy being with small dogs or big dogs and know how to play well with both as well as how to walk them.

About: I grew up in a household with pet dogs, mice, rats, hedgehogs, and frogs. I now am the proud owner of a rescue cat and have experience looking after everything from farm animals to ferrets. During my undergrad, I lived with a service dog trainer who had live-in dog students. I go out of my way to spend time with animals and love to help them be happy and healthy. Further, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on my to take care of their animals and house-sit for them since I was in high school. I am currently a PhD student at the University of New Mexico and work part time at the Maxwell Museum on Anthropology. I hold a busy, yet flexible, schedule and feel confident I can find time to walk, bike, or drive to take care of furry friends before and after work and throughout the day. Because my cat has a lot of anxiety around other animals, I do not offer in-home boarding. However, I am an active walker/jogger and would love to take out dog for a walk or run outside. For cats, I get real joy out of seeing them play or offering them head scratches. As my own pet has special requirements, I will diligently follow all your care instructions and treat your pet with the respect that I rest my own.

About: I’m a biggg animal lover, a vegan of 10 years, former animal shelter worker & doggy foster mom🤍 a few years ago, I rescued my dog, Blue. Working with trainers for my own dog has deepened my commitment to positive reinforcement and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I’m a full-time registered nurse, so I’m confident administering medications and managing special care routines. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes—from tiny companions to giant breeds—and I take the time to learn each dog’s quirks, preferences, and sensitivities to make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood. I live in an apartment with plenty of outdoor time, including long walks and play sessions, and I’m happy to help with feeding, training, and care. I currently only work 3 days a week, so I’m usually free the rest of my days off. I’m pretty flexible on scheduling things if you have any last minute needs. I work night shift, so if your dog is fine being left alone overnight let me know and I can board longer than my listed days! I have a pet cam to keep an eye on them overnight. Dog walking/drop-ins: I can come to your home, feed your pup breakfast/dinner, take them out for a quick potty break, play time, or go on a super long walk to tire them out! I’d love to know your dog’s routine, likes/dislikes, an level of energy! Doggy day care: Your dog can hang with me & mine for the day! Guaranteed fun times, cuddles, walks! I love making my space a welcoming & calm environment. I consider myself active, so if your dog is up for adventures/hikes, let me know! Your dog must be house trained & friendly with other dogs. Boarding: If your dog is being boarded with me, they’ll need to be friendly with other dogs, including my playful pup and occasionally my roommate’s small Shih Tzu-Yorkie mix. They also must be dropped off with a crate. I want to make sure they are safe & happy!

About: I have been a cat owner most my life but am a lover of all animals. I've been a dog and cat sitter, house caretaker and dog walker for the past few years off and on. If you want certainty that your pet is safe, loved and entertained while you are away I am sure to make that happen. I work a regular 40 hr work week. I am available for dog walking or cat/dog check ins on week day evenings. I am available for overnight stays on the weekends. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! I'm available weekends for walking and check ins. I am available evenings and early mornings during the weekdays. I will try to be as flexible as possible for your needs. I will be watchful and caring for your pets, follow instructions well and communicate when questions or issues arise. I will be sure to respect your home and pets.

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I have poured my love and dedication into every moment I spend with them. I am comfortable and confident in administering oral medication. I believe that playtime, walkies, baths and more are opportunities to bond and show your pet how loved they are. I follow care instructions exactly as described because I know how important it is to maintain routine. I am tuned into dog and cat body language, knowing exactly when to give space and when to offer comfort. I don’t force interaction or push boundaries. Yet, I won’t hesitate to get down on the floor, to play, cuddle, and love just like I do with my own furry family. When you call on me, you’re not leaving your precious baby with a stranger - you’re entrusting them to someone who truly believes they are family, deserving of all the love and care in the world. I’m looking forward to caring for your babies. Please reach out to further discuss scheduling. Important note, I am not able to stay at your home overnight. I work remotely which means I have flexibility throughout the day to stay with your pet. My house sitting service can be equated to daycare in your home, I’m happy to stay with your pet(s) throughout the day as long as you have good WiFi. I arrive as early as 8am and leave for the day at 10pm, with a couple hours away during lunch and in the afternoon. I do not leave animals alone for more than 4 hours at a time (except overnight). Important note, I am not able to stay at your home overnight. I believe parents make the rules! I am flexible to your requests and will follow your lead because you know what works best for your pets.

About: Through my life I have had many breeds of dog. Basset hound, labs, Akita, Australian shepherd and Chow Chow. Additionally I have been a secondary care taker for breeds such as Corgie, Brittany spaniel, pit bull, Belgian Shepard and Pomeranian. I work part time and take classes, and at the moment I do not have a pet of my own so I have plenty of time and energy to walk yours. I have walked dogs in many environments and areas of Albuquerque since I was a child. Safety will always come first, I keep dogs close but I am very willing to let them explore the area in a safe manner. I am very good at intervening and stopping fights between dogs and will always avoid off leash dogs while with your puppy.

“Grace did a wonderful job taking care of my Sofi! Lots of happy pictures!”

“Lucas is great and I definitely recommend him. This is the second time we have used his services to take care of our kitty while we are away. He provides lots of updates and he has excellent communication. I always feel at ease that he is taking the best care of our pet”

About: Before college, I was the primary caregiver for my family’s dog, Max—handling everything from daily walks and feeding to bathing, training, and playtime tailored to his pace and personality. That hands-on experience taught me how to read a dog’s needs and build trust through consistency and care. I’ve also cared for multiple pets through prior sitting experiences, including three dogs of different sizes and three cats, so I’m comfortable adapting to a variety of temperaments, routines, and energy levels. While in college, I’ve continued growing my experience by volunteering with a local shelter’s Doggy Day Out program, taking dogs on walks, hikes, and special outings to give them enrichment and a break from the shelter environment. These experiences have strengthened my ability to care for pets with patience, attentiveness, and genuine enthusiasm. I am currently a student at UNM and working part time, so my evenings are relatively free during the week. Friday afternoons - Sunday mornings are the best time for me to hangout with your pet and care for them full time. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and attention—whether that means long walks, playtime, or just lots of love and cuddles. If you choose house sitting, your pet won’t just be cared for—they’ll have a constant companion who keeps their routine consistent and stress-free. I also love taking pets on little adventures, like trips to nearby parks, to keep them engaged and happy. For your peace of mind, I’m happy to provide daily updates with photos and messages, so you always know your pet is safe, relaxed, and having a great time.
