“Rita did a great job. She met up with us early to meet the kitties. We had an alarm malfunction , but she handled it like a champ. She kept good records of each visit and it was great seeing the kitties when we couldn’t be there. She went above and beyond in her duties.”
“Great attitude and very accommodating. Will use her again in a heartbeat!”
About: I have always been a pet lover, and my entire life I have had all sorts of animals ranging from dogs to cattle. I do have experience working at a vet clinic taking care of dogs and cats who have boarded, and I loved the experience! My current fur family consists of a 12 year old toy poodle, an 8 year old miniature poodle/bichon frise mix, and my newest rescue who is a 13 year old Shih Tzu. Each fur baby definitely has their own attitude that makes them perfectly unique and I honestly couldn’t ask for better, I love them all unconditionally! I go above and beyond to take care of my sweet, spoiled babies and I can promise you I would do the same for yours! I have never met an animal that I haven’t completely fallen head over heels for instantly, so I promise you I will make an impact! I currently work Tuesday-Wednesday from 6:15am-7:30pm at the hospital here in Ruidoso and Friday-Sunday at a golf course in town from 9am-5pm. I would be available on the weekdays that I work after 7pm for any drop ins or walks, and weekends are dependent on how busy it is on the course. I am available for any other service any day of the week, and am able to do potty breaks twice a day and can let them have their free time after work on week days. For an additional price I am also able to do nail trims and baths during their visits if requested. I have a fenced in yard, as well as multiple sweet dogs who are dog friendly, so your fur babies can make friends! I’ve also got loads of toys for them to play with!

“I have three dogs and one on the way and would definitely classify as a crazy dog Mom. All my babies are very spoiled! Maci is the only person I trust to watch my fur babies when we are away. She takes care of each of them like they are her own and truly has a passion for animals. She will give the upmost care and respect to your animals. Rather it’s pet sitting or simply a walk around the block you not your pet will be disappointed.”
