About: Animals are a large part of my life and I enjoy taking care of each one and their particular needs. I have a wide range of experience from livestock to feathered friends and love them all! I am comfortable administering medication, grooming, playing, and loving on indoor and outdoor animals of all ages. I am attentive to detail and will make sure your pets and home are taking care of to the highest degree. Please reach out with any questions and I look forward to giving you peace of mind while you are away. I'm currently on summer vacation, so I will have plenty of time to give your pets attention and love! I am available to drop in for a visit or stay at your home. If I am already booked for a house stay, no worries, I can still check in on your pets! I can send lots of photos and videos to give peace of mind. Your pets will receive the highest quality of care, and I am happy to follow any special instructions for each and every one. I guarantee a save environment and happy animals!
“Leah, is awesome! I have high maintenance fur babies and she handle them like a pro. Took them for walks, one of my fur babies hurt his paw and she immediately let me know and was concerned she sent updates and pictures. I would highly recommend Leah and I will be booking with her in the future.”

“Brigit is the BEST. We have had her house sit with our dogs multiple times and we have been so grateful. She’s the sweetest person and i know she’s taking care of my dogs. We never have to worry when we are out of town. I got a ton of packages delivered while she stayed and she was amazing and made sure all of them were inside even though they were VERY heavy. We will continue to use Brigit anytime we need a dog/house sitter.”
“Kim took care of Molly and responded quickly when we had questions or concerns. The communication and follow up was very good. Molly is pretty active and sometimes a bit much, and we feel that Kim handled her well.”

“This is our second time using Alexus and she did not disappoint, yet again! She’s so diligent and attentive to our pups every need and more. She goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs don’t even miss us while we are away! She stays on schedule so they don’t feel a change in routine. We are so grateful for her! She is the best and I highly recommend her for loving your fur babies while away. Thank you million’s Alexus!”

“Lauren has watched my dogs a few times now. They love to see her and I always know that they are well cared for with her. She is patient and careful and always ensures that I know how they are doing. I highly recommend Lauren for any pet care service.”

“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.”

“First turn since moving that we left our pets for a week, and Hossanna made us feel super comfortable and we could relax knowing our pets were being well taken care of! Very communicative and took great care of the house and our creatures.”

“Gabriel is a dog whisperer! When our German Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix proved to be a bit skittish, Gabriel confidently lended a calming and supportive presence, over an extended caregiving stay, that helped our dog warm up and feel safe. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind he provided, and we would not hesitate to have him care for our pup again! Plus, he left the house in great shape. We wholeheartedly recommend Gabriel! Thank you!”


“Vincent cared for our two dogs and was OUTSTANDING. He was extremely professional, prompt, courteous and reliable. My dogs were very well cared for and cannot thank him enough. We will most definitely look to use his services again.”

“Thanks to Juan for looking after our dog and home while we were on vacation. He provided regular updates and gave us piece of mind while we were far away for an extended trip.”

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.
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!
“Josie did an amazing job taking care of my dogs and my home. The dogs were very happy and the house looked great. I would definitely have her back again. Thank you!”

“Skyler was a great pet sitter and house guest! She watched my two cats for a week. She shared a lot of updates and pictures the whole time. My cats were very happy and unbothered when I came home. I’ll definitely use Skyler again for future trips!”


“Lam took great care of my pup and sent lots of photo updates throughout the weekend. She's my new go-to gal and I already have her booked for another stay!”

“Aarti was amazing! Very knowledgeable and receptive. With her background in vet med, this eased my worries. She was attentive and loving to our two crazy, high energy, wack job Cattle Dogs. She made effort to expend energy safely going out at times when the NM heat wasn't too unbearable for them. She expressed love and concern for our dog's safety and happiness. She had an amazing idea to come to our home when we were getting ready to leave to assist our babies in their transition period. She sent cute pictures regularly and was phenomenal with her communication. I'm typically a super anxious worrywart but I found myself relaxing and enjoying my vacation because she put my mind at such ease. I will be booking her anytime we leave town! She's one in a million!”

“Autumn took good care of our little dog, Marvin, while we were out of town. Marvin is shy but warmed up to Autumn. Autumn kept us informed by sending us daily updates and photos of Marvin. We are extremely pleased with the service Autumn provided.”

About: Personally trained and cared for 30+ dogs. Proud owner of a German Shepherd named Blitzen and I've cared for multiple pets at the same time over the years. I firmly believe exercise is necessary for happy owners and pets alike. Leadership never turns off. I live off a simple and disciplined schedule. I'm almost always up before 05:00 with the exception of weekends and the first things I do as part of my morning routine is let the dogs out, meditate, and then take my dog Blitzen for a run. I have a large backyard that is enclosed by walls. Every pup I house I exercise, as it's important for their mental health (and mine), and it helps them acclimate to a new environment. I've trained multiple dogs and I'm adapted to recognizing and preventing unwanted fights and scenarios of that nature. I care for all pets in the same manner and typically follow leadership strategies recommended by Cesar Milan & Don Sullivan such as implementing rules, boundaries, and limitations as well as showing affection at the appropriate time so as not to encourage nervous and aggressive energy. Dogs have been a large part of my well-being and happiness and I understand that they have specific needs as well. Leadership to me entails leading my own life and practicing personal integrity. Every pup I've met or trained offers new opportunities for patience and learning and I'm happy to accept that challenge.

Alexus was amazing!! She took notes during the meet and greet and was so sweet to my energetic bully and kitties. During my trip she made sure to update me everyday (including pictures) and was prompt in responding back if I ever messaged her with any questions. I came home to happy and loved fur babies. I've already booked her again!

Greg provided outstanding service for our four dogs and watching and caring for our home while we were gone. He provided frequent updates and pics, and our doggies did well with him. Our house was pristine When we returned. We highly recommend him for all your pet needs!
Melissa went above & beyond with my Rori! She is so caring, loving, understanding, & flexible with scheduling.. and was so accommodating to my crazy schedule. Her communication is incredible & she kept me well informed of how Rori was doing. She even got my pup to play & I love it when she plays - I know she was happy & very comfortable with her. They went on lots of walks & she was very attentive to Rori's wants & needs. Thank you so much Melissa! We can't wait to book with her again!

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.

When Colton first arrived at my house for a meet and greet my cats came out to meet him instead of hiding. My dog who barks at nearly everyone and is shy didn't bark and wanted to be around him. Colton is a gentle soul, very attentive and asks great questions. He took care of my three Maine Coons, my chickens and koi while I was gone a week. If he was unsure he didn't hesitate to contact me. He sent photo updates and checked in with me regularly. He followed my instructions perfectly. When I got home the house was clean and tidy. Colton is amazing. I'm so happy I found him.

Larkin was great at communicating and taking care of my kitten! She’s very friendly and took great care of our house as well. My kitten, who is often skittish around new people, was super comfortable with her and seemed content when I got home. So glad to have found such a responsible and kind person to hangout with my pet!

Excellent and prompt communication, appropriately cautious when meeting a new dog, did everything I requested including watering plants and refilling bird feeders. Stayed with my dog all day on the one of the two days I was gone that she wasn’t working. Everything was clean and tidy and as I left it. I appreciate everything and will definitely hire her again if she isn’t already booked!
