About: I'm a 30 year old that currently has three sweet dogs and a cat of her own! I love all animals and I have experience with many different dogs and cats- big, small, playful or couch potato. I'm attentive, energetic and willing to give your pet all the play time they need! Your pet will be treated like royalty, and given all the love and treats they can dream of. I'm flexible, responsible and have plenty of experience caring for both cats and dogs! All of my previous and current fur babies are rescues, and unfortunately, some had horrible past owners. This gave me experience working with pets with anxiety and fear. I'm great with training, and will give your pet positive reinforcement in the form of lots of love, belly rubs, and scritches! Your pup will be in safe, loving hands when I'm around. I'm willing to give baths as well as administer oral medication if needed, and send many updates and pictures during your service! I have a lot experience with senior pets, having had 3 senior pets of my own previous, and currently have an 11 year old senior who gets routine oral medication via pill and oral syringe, so I have practice with admistering both. Having seen many of my pets through their senior lives, I am quick to spot any signs of medical emergency or off symptoms. Your pets will be getting my 12+ years of experience with my own animals. I have a flexible schedule currently, and I'd be happy to do a meet a greet! I hope to hear from you and be trusted with your fur babies! My schedule is pretty open and flexible so I'll have plenty of time to pamper your fur baby! I'm available during weekdays primarily, and can be available most weekends given prior notice. I have a large fenced yard for your baby to run around and play in, and very friendly pets to keep your fur baby company, if they want! I can easily crate your pup if it is needed as well.

About: Hello, my name is Tara and small to medium size dogs are right up my alley! Will treat your fur baby like the little prince or princess it is and always treat with love and respect. Grew up around dogs and currently have a little Yorkie of my own, Ruby. We are two peas in a pod and pretty much do everything together but love hanging out with others as well. Ruby is ten years old and gets along with all sorts of other dogs and people. She knows no strangers and welcomes all! ***All new daycare clients must complete a meet-and-greet before their first booking.*** Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. As a dog owner myself, I’m already accustomed to incorporating walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship into my routine. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so dog walking is something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a comfortable place to spend the day, or just some extra love and attention, I can provide a safe, welcoming, and dependable environment where they feel right at home! I treat every pet in my care like they're one of my own! As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of love and attention. **In my home**, I provide a welcoming, comfortable environment where dogs can enjoy playtime, regular potty breaks, walks, and plenty of affection. Since I work from home, I'm able to provide consistent companionship and supervision throughout the day. I also have a small, friendly Yorkie of my own, so making sure everyone gets along and feels comfortable is a priority. I follow each dog's individual routine, including feeding schedules, activity levels, and any special care instructions. ***All new daycare clients must complete a meet-and-greet before their first booking.*** **In a client's home**, I respect your space and make sure your pet's normal routine stays as consistent as possible. Whether I'm stopping by for a potty break, taking your dog on a walk, or providing some extra attention, I focus on making each visit a positive experience. I'm also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. Above all, I prioritize safety, communication, and personalized care because I know every dog has their own personality, preferences, and needs!

About: Hi! I'm Melissa. I'm a lifelong animal lover and caretaker with years of experience rescuing, training, fostering, and caring for dogs at every stage of life, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I've cared for just about every size and personality, from 5 lb teacup terriers to 115 lb German Shepherds and everything in between. Whether your pup is high energy and always ready for play or enrichment, reactive, or more of the cool, calm, and collected type, I have experience with them all! Your fur baby will be treated like one of my own. Every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so for every new client, we'll do a full debrief to get to know your pup and make sure I can provide the best possible care. High-energy pups can look forward to plenty of playtime and enrichment, while our more laid-back friends can enjoy a cozy space to relax, recharge, and catch up on their beauty sleep. I believe in personalized care, not a one size fits all approach! Your pup's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I'm big on supervision, communication, and making sure pet parents feel just as comfortable as their four legged family members. You'll receive regular photo/video updates, so you can see how your pup is doing and never miss a moment of the cuteness! Whether you need a helping hand while you're at work, away on vacation, or just need a well-deserved break, I'm here to make life a little easier and ensure your best friend is in good hands. Message me to chat about your pup and book their walk or drop in! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I'm happy to work around your schedule, whether your pup needs a morning walk, a midday potty break, an afternoon adventure, or a little extra company while you're away. I enjoy building pet care into my daily routine and making sure every pup gets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I'll do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule and keep your pet's routine as familiar and stress-free as possible! For walks and drop-in visits, my priority is making sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own familiar environment. Every visit is tailored to your dog's personality, energy level, and routine. For walks, we'll enjoy neighborhood adventures, plenty of sniff breaks, exercise, and fresh air at a pace that's right for your pup. For drop-in visits, I can help with potty breaks, meals, fresh water, playtime, enrichment games, and some extra love and companionship while you're away. Before our first visit, we'll go over your dog's routine, preferences, commands, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent, personalized care. I'll always respect your home, follow your directions, prioritize your dog's safety, and send regular photo/video updates so you know how your best friend is doing. Whether your pup needs to burn off some energy or just wants a little company, I've got them covered!

“Taylor is so great with our pups and they love seeing her! Each time it’s like greeting an old friend for them. Thanks Taylor!!! TIL next time!”

About: I have four dogs ranging from small to large. I got my first dog in 2018 and added on since. I’ve spent a lot of time training my dogs teaching them commands, going on walks and finding activities that are exercising their minds. I have two bunnies as well, if you know anything about bunnies, you know that they can sometimes be a lot of work. I wouldn’t change it for the world. I love all of my animals and I will love yours just as much as mine. I currently stay at home as I am focusing on college. This allows me to care for myself, my pets, and now your pets. I am available all hours of the day, for walking or drop in visits with your furry friends! I do not personally have pets that come to my house since I do have dogs and bunnies of my own. In your home I believe dogs are more comfortable in their own environment. Any instruction you give me on how to take care of your pet is going to be strictly followed. Every pet that I care for will get love will get enriching activities will get exercise taken on walks food and water, which is all very bare minimum for pet sitter.

About: I have worked at a Pets R Us Albuquerque NM, I have a GSP and I love him. I reserch everything on animals to make them feel better and to understand them more. I am always home, housewife duties with 2 children that love animals. Will have plenty of time to care for them and make them feel welcome and cuddle with them. I can crate the dogs if needed. I have a very friendly GSP 1 year old that loves to play. In the clients home I can give all my attention to them and make sure they are taken care and fed and walked. Most important loved.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. I started by watching my aunt’s dogs when I was younger, and for the last couple of years I’ve also been walking and caring for my friends’ dogs. Im currently working a full time job at a restaurant so im only looking for something between 7:00am-2:30pm. On my days off though it does change! I’m happy to accommodate whatever your pup needs to feel safe and comfortable, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m great at following instructions and can help with any specific medications, exercises, or routines your pup may need.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for many years. Growing up I’ve always had dogs, cats, and small animals. I worked at a pet boarding place for a little bit and recently worked at the humane society. I absolutely adore all kinds of animals and can’t wait to be working with yours! I am currently working but my schedule is pretty flexible. Let me know your needs and I’m sure I will be able to work around then! If the yard is fenced, I will go out and let the dogs run around while sitting outside with them and playing with toys. I love taking the babies for walks. When we aren’t out playing I like to cuddle up and give the babies as much attention as possible. Bath time is definitely upon request and bathing conditions change based upon the animal.

About: ***Because Rover does not screen vaccine records, I require all clients to provide them upfront. For safety and liability reasons, I can’t host any dog without verified Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccinations. Once you upload the records here, I’ll immediately move forward with the booking. Thanks for understanding!*** What sets me apart is my background in professional dog training, behavior and veterinary medicine. I understand dog body language, canine dynamics and ethology, and know how to create a safe, low-stresss environment for every dog in my care. I am a certified member of the IAABC (International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants), a KPA (Karen Pryor Academy) graduate and a member of the Fear Free community, specializing i daycare/boarding environments. I am an insured LLC as well. We focus on quality over quantity, enrichment over chaos and communication over confusion. Dogs aren't left to 'figure it out' amongst themselves. Caring for pets is woven into the very fabric of my everyday life. I built this business on the idea that I get to raise a family from home and work with the species I have built so much knowledge upon. Dogs thrive on routine and consistency so they are always monitored and their needs are met. Dogs aren't just part of my lifestyle, they're literally my life. At our home, pets are treated like family. We focus on keeping everyone safe, happy and comfortable while respecting each individual dogs needs. Positive, reward based methods are used to help dogs become more confident and relaxed. Dogs get the appropriate balance of play, rest and enrichment throughout the day. Cleanliness is also important and we follow veterinary protocols to maintain a healthy environment. During your dogs stay with us whether its for boarding or a day of play, low stress and structured play is heavily supervised. Body language is a specialty of mine and we carefully monitor group dynamics and tailor care to each dogs comfort level. Even if your dog doesn't care for the company of other dogs, we are able to appropriately provide plenty of 1:1 time during their stay.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years I’ve worked with animal shelters and fostered both cats and dogs, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I’ve also looked after family, friends, and neighbors’ pets—including dogs, cats, and even horses! I’m comfortable with administering medication, as I currently give my own pets their daily treatments. One of my dogs is undergoing cancer care, so I understand the importance of patience, compassion, and consistency when it comes to pets with special needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, snuggles, or attentive care, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I start and end each day caring for my own pets, which makes it easy to fit in time for yours. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I can be available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or medication, I’m used to planning my day around animals and making sure they get the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do everything I can to keep them in their normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and litter (or outdoor breaks) are taken care of, and I always double-check that doors, gates, and windows are secure before leaving. I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own, building trust through patience, kindness, and consistency. Whether it’s making sure medication is given on time, keeping playtime safe, or respecting your home and routines, I aim to give both pets and owners peace of mind. 🐾

About: I currently play professional baseball and I have taken care of many animals from my family and friends in the past. My family owned many animals and I currently own my own cat. I have worked with large dog, small dogs and all the in between. I currently coach baseball lessons, so I am pretty free to take care of animals throughout most days. I usually block out my Lessons for an hour or two per lesson. I am the type of person to leave the place better than I found it. I am very respectful of places and make sure the animals do what they need to do before I leave.

About: I’ve taken care of my Jack Russel Terrier for 12 years, and ensured he has has the best quality of life! I have taken care of other friends pets in the past, while they have traveled for adventures. Pet care fits into my daily schedule because I am free everyday during the week except for one day out of the week. I am doin an online course so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have a fenced in yard where the animals could run around to burn off some energy when not going for a walk, and a old bedroom that is now a new dog room

About: Our fur family members brings me so much joy and happiness! I love all of them so much! They make me so happy when I see their faces light up and their tails wag! I will treat them the way you would want me to to treat them. There is no better thing than the love of a dog or cat. I have worked with several elderly pups and cats. I have tons of experience with oral meds, shots, diapers and other care necessary for our elderly fur family members. As for puppies, I have raised several of my own.

I will love them, if they want or I will just be their pooper scooper, food server and fresh water care giver! I will do exactly what their owners ask.

I show them the care and love that they need while you are away from them. My approach is to help them relax while you are out making awesome memories or working. I love what I do and want your fur family members to feel the love!!! I send photos and updates often. I do this because I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away from them. Stress free is my motto!!!! I follow whatever you ask me to do. I board pups at my home, so I can love on them 24 hours a day! I would love to meet you and your fur babies. I am just one click away!
