About: Hi, My Name is Rae! Our family consists of myself, my husband, and our fur babies; our 2 pups and our pet rabbit. I have certifications in Animal Training and Pet Sitting. As well as Animal Psychology, Veterinary Support Assistant, and Animal Grooming. I could not imagine a life without pets, growing up with pets of all kinds, I have a deep love and understanding of the patience, time, and love that goes into any pet and how they complete a home. I look forward to meeting any new pet and sharing my time with them, getting to know who they are. If you would like to learn more about me, check out my website: whiskerkiss (dot) com I work full-time, partial days in office during the week and partial days during the week at home. I have standard weekends at home. Evenings I am at home. For boarding, I have a enclosed/fenced dog area. With seasonal shade cover over a portion of the dog area. It is directly attached to my patio and both the dog area and patio are contained with tall fencing to mitigate other animals from entering the area. We do slow introductions with any guest pets and my own pups as I know it can be overwhelming at first for each party. My pups are very friendly with other pets and love to run around and play once everyone gets acclimated.
About: Hi, I’m Sierra – your pet’s new best friend! 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. I have two sweet Pitbull-Lab mixes at home who’ve taught me so much about patience, loyalty, and unconditional love. I have hands-on experience with administering medication (oral and topical) and even diapering pets who need a little extra care. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or needs special attention, I’m confident in creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for them. I proudly service Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Los Lunas, Bernalillo, and parts of the East Mountain villages. I’m happy to work with your schedule, send regular updates and photos, and make sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and detail-oriented, I’m your person. Let’s set up a meet and greet! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. I have two Pitbull-Lab mixes who keep me on my toes! Between walks, playtime, feedings, and cuddles, I’m used to building my day around pets and their needs. Taking care of other people’s pets just feels like a natural extension of what I already do. I’m flexible with my schedule and love being around animals, so whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, I’m happy to make it work! When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I stick to your pet’s usual routine with feeding, walks, meds, playtime, and all the cuddles they want! I’m also happy to bring in mail, water plants, and keep things tidy while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick visit or an overnight stay, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home.

About: I have a soft spot for all animals and treat all pets as if they were my own. As someone who grew up around many types of animals since I was a kid, I know how much they mean to us. I make sure they are taken care of and loved! I’m available Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays all day! If other weekdays are needed, i’m available but only for check ins, as I work those days. I do not take pets in my home as I have other animals in the house. I am happy to provide care at the clients home. I do walks, play time, dog parks, etc!

“Desirea was exactly what we were looking for — someone to come check on our cat, give her some love, attention, and play time, and feed her in the morning. She even was willing to come over and meet me and my cat ahead of time to get to know us. She sent us pictures and was very easy to communicate with the whole time. We’ll definitely reach back out to her the next time we’re headed out of town!”

About: I grew up on a farm with multiple dogs and cats, as well as your typical farm animals like horses, cows, pics, sheep etc. I especially love dogs and helped to train our dogs on the farm, as well as my current little Dachshund Obi who is the sweetest little boy. My most recent elderly dog sitting was a 3-week in-home visit that required a lot of physical assistance, as well as administering medications. I also find joy in taking care of animals and making both them and their owners comfortable. I'm a retired circus performer that currently directs, choreographs and teaches. Because this is part-time work, I have lots of free time to be available for your pets. When I'm in town, I'm available almost any day of the week and can easily work around my part-time work. I'm currently offering in-home visits, dog walking, and overnight care in your home. I always make sure to proactively communicate with my clients so that I'm fully informed as to how to make your pet to still feel at home, even with you away. Making sure they're healthy, happy and comfortable are my main concerns.

Bernalillo dog parents share their Rover experiences
Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of my pups! I was a little concerned using Rover for the first time but picking Cindy and seeing how dedicated she was took those away, One of the pups is very anxious and nervous and she did a great job with her! She always checked in when she was with the pups which definitely gave me peace of mind. I can tell why Cindy is a star sitter. I would hire her again.
