Pet Sitting Big Bend

About: My name Christina, I have been around pets all my life. My daughter has been doing Rover for over 6 years and she absolutely loves it! So, I decided to sign up! When my daughter was moving back from Alabama to New Mexico, I took care of her cat and dog for about 3 weeks. I fed them, walked her dog and gave them plenty of love until she returned. I am fully vaccinated for Covid. My schedule fluctuates because I have a part time job and the hours vary. So, we can talk about the schedule prior to booking. I would love to take care of your fur babies because I would treat them like my grand babies like my daughters babies and give lots of loving and care while you are away. My daughters fur babies & their personalities: She cat and a dog. Tucker is the most laid back cat you will ever meet. You can literally carry him like a baby. He is great for introducing dogs that have never met cats before. **Please be mindful though, if your dog does not like cats. Please please please let me know that when you message me.* Yoshi is the only dog. Yoshi is a Shiba Inu who loves loves loves to play! I got Yoshi about 6 years ago. My pets are fully vaccinated and gets flee medication once a month. He is neutered. Yoshi, is a Shiba and if you know anything about Shiba's they can have temperamental personalities. Yoshi gets along with other dogs but on his time. He does not like over dominate/ over aggressive dogs. If your dog displays that, please be mindful, honest and upfront about the dynamics. Your animals are top priority when it comes to safety as well as my daughter animals. Cancellation Policy: If you book a stay with me. You will have 3-days before the start of the stay to cancel to get a full refund. If you cancel after the 3-days, you will be refunded 50% of the stay. The the 3-day policy in place, because I value your time and mine as well. I understand when unforeseen things happen. When I commit to booking with you, I decline all other bookings if the other booking dates conflict with your booking date to ensure that your animals will receive the best care. If you cancel after, I will not be able to recover from the other bookings in a short time span. This is first on my bio so you completely understand what the cancellation process is, so you can prepare for it ahead of time. Thank you in advance for understanding. First book, first serve: When booking for my services, I implement a first come, first serve service. More like first book, first serve. If a booking request is sent to me but not paid for in full, the booking is still pending. Meaning the dates requested will still be open for another client to book. If I receive a booking and it is completely booked and paid for then those dates will be blocked off my calendar to ensure that another client can't book during those dates. My schedule fluctuates, I have a part time job. We can speak about scheduling prior to booking to make sure I will be a good for you and your babies. I have been around pets all my life.

“Great with animals, a strong communicator, and highly professional. She was fantastic and flexible with our schedule. I definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”

“I have used Tawnia 3 times now and I am so glad I got her this third time! She is always so nice to our animals, responsive, and understands directions. I will keep using her as long as she is available and would recommend to anyone.”

About: I’ve grown up with many cats (tabbies, calicos, and black cats) and dogs (pit bulls) throughout my childhood. I’m very familiar with environments that involve pets. I’m also known to be very punctual, have friendly and positive attitude, and pay excellent attention to detail! I’m a 22 year old young adult and I work part time as a caregiver! I live with my fiancé who also works as a caregiver but we have opposite schedules, so there will always be a person in the place to look after your pet. I work Thurs-Sunday from 9am to 5pm. I may be out of the house once a day for a hour or two to run errands. Besides that, we’re be available to keep an eye on your furry friends! :) I live in a 650 sqft apartment within a gated community! The apartment complex has a small outside pet area with other sidewalks and grass to enjoy. I can also provide food and toys if needed!

“Great communication, asks questions & gives updates, and most important - dog likes her :)”

“Adrienne was an excellent sitter/walker for my hyperactive Brittany. He needs his walks in foothills daily and Adrienne was prompt with her arrivals and always provided a cute photo of my pup enjoying his walk. This really put me at ease for my first trip away from my dog. I would highly recommend Adrienne for your sitter/walker needs!”

“Jana was great. She visited our cat exactly per our schedule, played with him, took fantastic (action) pictures, and even watered our plants. She was charming when we met, we will definitely look her up when we travel again.”

Paul F.

“Jenny took wonderful care of our dogs. She gave great updates and we never worried about our pups while we were out of town. Highly recommend!”

Amanda B.

“We just wrapped Mina’s third booking with August and I have no notes- as always he was reliable, communicative, patient with our rescue bb and kept her safe. This trip however had some exciting new developments- our little pitty is slow to warm up to people and it was evident in the photos and notes that she has grown to trust August after just three stays! She also showed significantly less anxiety when we returned, giving this helicopter parents much relief. August was also great about following up to make sure we made it home safely, ensuring Mina wouldn’t be without care. As always, he’s been incredible to work with!”

Amanda D.

“Mira came to my home earlier in the week and did a walk through meet and greet. She was very pleasant to meet. On the day of pet care she kept me posted and sent some comforting photos of the love they received. She is trustworthy and reliable and highly recommended to care for your fur family”

Lisa N.

“Heaven is just wonderful! When we did our meet and greet, I found that she had read both of my big dogs' profiles. She asked relevant questions about each dog's health and medical needs. She came wearing a small bell so that my blind dog would know where she was--so smart and thoughtful! Upon successive drop in visits, she made sure to follow all directions, gave each dog individual attention and belly rubs (which they loved!) and also made sure they had a backyard visit. She sent pictures and notes following each visit. It is very obvious that Heaven has dog experience and takes their care seriously. I am looking forward to using her services in the future and feel very happy to have found her!”

“Holly and Robert did a great job dropping in on our pup Murphy during the day. They had great communication with us about how he was doing and we came home to a happy pup. Thanks Holly and Robert!”

Jennifer & Ryan W.

“Max did an amazing job. He met me the day before to receive instructions and meet Whiskey and Willow. He was thoughtful and asked smart questions. For the stop-ins, he came at consistent times each day and sent photos. He was reliable and trustworthy and I’d hire him again”

Jason L.

“Tabatha is the best. She’s a very caring, thoughtful caregiver. Super reliable and responsive with plenty of communication and photos. She even kept an eye on the plants. Will definitely be rebooking in the future if she’s available. Thank you so much Tabatha!”

Kate F.

“Jennifer was wonderful, very responsive and great with our cat. Like any self-respecting cat owner, I have taken hundreds of adorable pictures of my cat, but Jennifer's were even cuter.”

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!

“Thank you Malcolm. It looks like Kenji remembered you. I really appreciate your flexibility. I’ll look at the calendar and let you know of future bookings. They will likely be in the early evening.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. My dad is a herpetologist, so I grew up caring for snakes, turtles, frogs, salamanders, and fish, along with dogs, cats, and chickens. This gave me an early understanding of different species, temperaments, and individual care needs. I recently relocated from Pennsylvania, while my dog is staying with my family, where she is very loved and well cared for. I’m currently saving my Rover earnings toward a road trip home to bring her here to New Mexico. Even knowing she’s in great hands, I understand how hard it can be to miss your pet and how important it is to trust the person caring for them. That perspective is a big part of how I approach pet sitting—I prioritize reliability, communication, and making sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with animals of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets, and I treat each one with the same patience and attention I would want for my own. Please message me your pet sitting needs and I can likely accommodate! My availability is more open than reflected on Rover. Presently, I drop-ins, dog walking, and house sitting/overnight care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with access to a small dog yard and a nearby park, providing plenty of opportunities for walks, exercise, and outdoor time. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment and will diligently follow all care instructions and routines closely and give each pet the individual attention they need to feel secure and at home.

“Scott was an exceptional dog sitter! We had him come to our house twice a day to walk, feed and visit with our dog, Peanut. His communication was stellar...we knew the specifics about her walks, potty habits, and had a photo for each visit. I was really able to relax and enjoy my vacation thanks to Scott's great care. We will definitely book him again when we go out of town!”
