About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own: learning their quirks, routines, and comfort zones so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and full of energy for playful ones! Whether it’s long walks, extra cuddle time, or sticking to a specific feeding schedule, I make sure your pet gets personalized care and love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I plan my days around walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I love spending time outdoors and being active, so walks and visits fit perfectly into my lifestyle. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I truly enjoy every day. When I care for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping everything as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions carefully. From feeding schedules and walks, to medication or specific routines. I spend quality time with each pet so they feel loved and secure, and I always make sure your home is respected and left tidy. I want you to come back to a happy pet and a peaceful home.

About: I give your pets attention and affection, keeping them comfortable while you’re away. I send pictures most days to assure you all is well. My services include house-sitting, so your pets stay home where they’re comfortable. I have decades of experience with a variety of breeds. Let’s talk about what worries you and we’ll find a solution everyone is happy with! I’d prefer to visit your pets before securing the booking, to make sure we all get along. I am self employed and pet care is one of the ways I earn my living. I also work remotely for some of my clients and use the wi-fi to get tasks done. I have been house/pet sitting for decades. I treat your home as if I was a welcome guest, but not a part of the household. Over the years, I’ve had jobs where I was bonded for security, which means I have a clean record. I’ve been entrusted with confidential & proprietary information. I’ve adhered to HIPAA rules without breaking a sweat. I am trustworthy and friendly. I have a silly sense of humor and have skewed streaming algorithms with binging scifi. I’ve lived in the extremes of rural to urban environments. I can greet & thank people in ten languages. My idea of a party is a bowl of ice cream and a movie (sci-fi, British drama). Before we book anything, I’d like to stop by the house and give the critter(s) a chance to get a good look/smell of me and you can give me the lay of the land. Housesitting: I’m being hired to keep the critter(s) company, and that’s what I do. Nana comes to visit and keeping the house safe and the animal(s) safe and happy is my primary duty. My habit is to bring my own supplies, so when you get home, everything is how you left it. I have a ukulele and I sing familiar covers, so I’ll mention it now in case the neighbors mention something about it. (I have yet to have a dog howl as I sang, though the huskies were very talkative.) Drop-In: Depending on our discussion during the Meet & Greet, I will swing by your house according to the schedule we’ve set up. I will make sure the water is fresh and the food bowl has plenty of food. (My job is to make sure the animal(s) know they are being cared for and that they don’t have to stress about whether or not they will starve to death - I’m thinking of cats especially here who see the bottom of the food bowl and start to panic. Not on my watch!) Walk: I’ll be at your house at the time(s) we’ve discussed, put on the collar and leash, and set out on the adventure. My habit is to sing as I walk so that any other critter has a chance to get out of sight - a lesson learned by startling a skunk. It is important that I know if the neighborhood is friendly or if folks keep to themselves. Do(es) the dog(s) visit friends on the trail? or should I keep them on their own?

About: I have loves dogs for as long as I can remember. I have three dogs of my own, and have a lot of experience of dog breeding and taking care of their puppies who have all gone to nice homes. I love the animals with all my heart is my dream to become a vet ever, since I was little. I also have a bird who is living a long nice life, taking care of her has shown me how to stick to a schedule and to watch out for any hidden details, since birds hide their sickness well, because of that it has also helped me identify if anything is wrong with my dogs. We have Paisley (9), Olly or Oliver (6), and Pepper (3). They are all extremely kind and do great with other dogs. They are Cavalier, King Charles spaniels. Paisley has had 3 litters and Pepper 2. Because of their litters I have experience delivering the puppies and taking care of them until they go to their new home, if you want to see if this is true, you can go to my moms website “Turners Cavilers” on Facebook and you’ll be able to see the lil’ cuties! I work right now at a pet food place and work Tuesdays-Sunday. I work 9:30-6:30 On Tuesday-Friday and then 9:30-4 on Saturday and then 10:30-3:00 on Sundays. Granted, I will have other days off From Monday but it always changes. So just texting and communicating! My shedule can be flexible, I'm good at communication. How I care for my pets is we have a water bowl inside and out, we feed them at very specific times to avoid them gaining to much weight and take them on occasional walks, the backyard is fenced with green grass (besides a patch of dead grass where the dogs have made a path) there’s is plenty of shade in the backyard if your dog tends to get warm easily, but most of the time we keep our dogs inside and have a huge dog bed for all three of them. If your pet requires it we do have dog bowls and I can keep out for your pet. We also have crates if this is something that you want for your pet if I ever offer overnight stay. Our three dogs are extremely playful and friendly and enjoy meeting other dogs. We also have our own grooming station in our garage that we use for our own dogs.

“Luca has been my dog's walker for 6 months now. He is very caring and attentive and my dog Brigid loves him. He's always willing to adapt, whether it's to a new cat or impromptu vet visit.”

About: Cats tend to trust me because I approach them with a calm, gentle spirit and allow them to connect with me at their own pace. I don’t force affection or treat their care like a checklist—I pay attention to their personality, comfort, behavior, and individual needs. My years of experience have taught me how to recognize when something may be wrong and how to respond calmly and responsibly. I take following instructions, maintaining routines, securing the home, and keeping owners informed very seriously. Most importantly, I genuinely love cats and care deeply about their well-being. Every cat in my care will be treated with the same patience, protection, and compassion. I’m available most days and weekends. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. Connect with me so we can discuss a schedule that works best for you. I primarily provide pet sitting in my clients’ homes, where cats can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routines. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, fresh water, medication, litter-box care, playtime, companionship, and any special needs. I also provide updates so owners can feel confident that their cats and homes are being well cared for. References from previous in-home pet-sitting clients are available upon request. I generally do not care for cats in my own home, but I may consider special circumstances on a case-by-case basis. My home has multiple levels, no children, and a securely fenced backyard. I provide grooming services for cats only and on a case by case basis. I do no clip nails. I have years of experience bathing and properly cleaning cats, both my own and strays. I can provide the service for a small fee.

“Michelle was a great dog walker! She showed up on time, communicated well, and rolled with changes in the weather. Most important, our dog loved her!”

“Courtney is awesome! Highly recommended for walks as she is friendly, courteous, and punctual. I can definitely tell that Scrappy Doo is ecstatic after a walk around the neighborhood with Courtney. He is definitely well taken care of in her presence.”

About: LATEST PUPDATE (MAY 2026): Starting the month of June, I'll be able to start accepting drop in & sitting requests again. Boarding requests (in our home) are still unavailable at this time, as our pup continues to focus on his rehab & recovery. We will update this accordingly & hopefully be back to hosting your furry loved ones as soon as we can. Thank you for your patience & understanding. Hi there, I'm Erika! A true dog lover at heart & someone who enjoys the outdoors just as much! I love going hiking with my furry friends or taking them on outings to some of Abq's nicest parks, ice cream joints, dog friendly stores/events, & much more. I enjoy keeping my friends active unless they're more of a couch potato, in which we could certainly cuddle up & watch Animal Planet or Paw Patrol all night. I grew up with several rescue dogs, from small to large, and breeds of all sorts. Therefore, I learned the responsibility of caring for and walking dogs at a very young age. I've also spent a lot of time fostering dogs from puppies to seniors & the shy timid ones that just need a little time to warm up. I'm a big lover of the working breeds & understand the special kind that they are. Regardless, I love anything with fur & paws & I treat all dogs with the love & care just as they are my own.

“Simply amazing. I have no worries when Hector is scheduled to walk domino when we’re out of town. Thank you, Hector! Domino misses you already :)”
