Top rated Embudo Canyon house sitters

“Elliot was amazing! Second time using her and she was very communicative during the whole trip! Due to Milton our plans were somewhat changed and Eliot was flexible and was able to accommodate our animals so they wouldn’t be alone too long!”


“Our 14YO female heeler bonded immediately with Aarti and she was probably sad when we returned. I like Aarti because she returns texts and requests in a very timely manner. We got photos from her every day which helped to ease any anxiety we had about using a new dog sitter. Her background as a vet assistant also eased our minds with our dog's history of Cushings disease. We travel a fair amount and are looking to have Aarti care for our girl in the future. Five stars for sure.”


“Brigit was amazing. We got pictures of our pups and she was able to bring in our packages. We have never left our dogs with anyone before and I will be using this service and Brigit again. Highly recommend her!”


“Brooke kept us up to date on our pet while away and was always timely in responding to questions and messages. Our home and pet were well taken care of during our time away. Highly recommend Brooke.”


“Max is one of the best sitters we’ve had! Communication with max was quick and easy. He sent me updates on how my dogs were doing and when he arrived. Max was gentle and understanding with my barky and insecure pit bull. Aldo really warmed up to him quickly and felt comfortable with him. Will definitey rebook Max in the future.”


“Hossanna is awesome. She communicates often and responds quickly. She truly loves animals and I never worried for a moment while I was away. She is fantastic and I will work with her anytime.”


“Susana did a fantastic job watching our two dogs and two cats. Our older beagle requires some specifically times medical care and Susana handled it beautifully. Communication was quick and informative, we received frequent updates while we were away, and our home was cleaner than when we had left it when we got back. Would highly recommend Susana for any house or animal sitting services.”


“Paulina is so sweet and amazing with all my dogs. They absolutely love her. She was punctual, patient, and friendly. She sent pictures of the dogs at the end of the day and kept us updated throughout. We only took a quick trip but we will definitely be using her in the future.”


“I feel like Kaylin gave my pets more attention than I'm usually able to give. She sent me frequent pics and videos and left the house probably cleaner than it was before.”


About: Dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented—I take time to understand your dog’s unique needs to ensure they feel secure and loved while you’re gone. There’s nothing better than to come home to a happy, tail wagging dog. I am currently a grad student at the University of New Mexico. Pet sitting is something I look forward to each week to take my mind off of all my studies. I enjoy spending time with pets to relieve their stress as well as mine. I take pride in providing respectful, attentive care in your home. Keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their routine, giving them affection, exercise, and calm companionship. I treat every home with the same care I would my own, ensuring everything is clean, secure, and just as you left it.

“Candace watched our fur babies while we were on a trip she did a amazing job with them. They loved being around here, it was nice knowing they were in good hands and that we didn’t have to worry about them. We will definitely be using her again.”



“Cristina was fantastic! She took great care of our dog Karma and our house while we were on a 10 day trip. Both Karma and our house looked wonderful when we returned. She even stayed until we landed at just before midnight and got our text that we were back in Albuquerque. We will definitely be using Cristina in the future. We got pictures when ever we were in range of cellular.”


“Our dog and cat loved Meredith, and we did too. She was everything we were looking for in a pet and housesitter. Meredith had great communication skills, responding instantly to our texts and providing exactly the info requested. Plus, she provided daily videos of our pets that showed how safe and relaxed they felt with her. She even tracked our flight home online to make sure we'd landed safely and assured us she would stay late if we were delayed. She left the house spotless. Knowing Meredith is a Registered Vet Tech only added to the peace of mind we felt leaving our fur babies in her care. We will absolutely book with her again.”



“Patricia was wonderful with Layla. She walked her, played and talked to her and provided love with lots of belly rubs. Followed all feeding instructions and vitamin regimen. Thank you, would definitely ask her again to sit with my fur baby.”


“Regan took great care of our fur babies and communicated very well. I really appreciated her straight forward and honest communication. Thank you so much for helping us out in a pinch!”


“Haley took great care of our pack of four dogs, including a complicated schedule of pills for our oldest. Also watered plants and held down the fort while we were gone. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!!”


“Jeff is an exceptional pet sitter, and we can’t recommend him highly enough! After we moved to ABQ, we were anxious about finding a trustworthy overnight sitter for our two dogs, especially with one being a high-energy puppy. From the moment we met Jeff, we felt completely at ease, and our dogs instantly took to him. While we were away for the holidays, Jeff went above and beyond in caring for both our dogs and our home. He communicated regularly, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind. We’re so grateful to have found Jeff and will definitely be relying on him again in the future!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12, both my own and family members’. In more recent years, I’ve expanded to helping out anyone who needs it, whether they need me to stay for a week or just pop in for a quick break outside. I’m currently out of work, so aside from a couple weekend trips out of state, I’m completely free until classes start at the end of August! I’ll always keep a close eye on pets when let outside, I can easily crate them if applicable, I’ll always be sure they have plenty of water and are fed on time, and I’ll gladly walk and play with them anytime!

About: I've been a pet caretaker for most of my 45 years, but I only put 25 in the years experience because those adult years of my life have been most dedicated to pet care. I am a serial adopter of rescue animals, so I'm well versed in pet conditions that need special care. I don't crate our animals and I love them all unconditionally. If you have a pet that needs special attention or even a modicum of training, I'd be happy to help you take care of them. I'm a military veteran and author working from home. I spend my entire day spoiling my pets (I have both cats and dogs, and they get along well enough). I walk the dogs daily, sometimes more than once. The dogs get brushed regularly and the cats get brushed if they make an appearance or we can catch them. As mentioned earlier, I do not crate our pets. I prefer to let them roam, but I occasionally do block off certain areas of the house to prevent naughty behavior. The pets are always rewarded for good behavior with snacks.

“A couple of words describe Joel and his care of my girl, above and beyond. He did fantastic job of playing and spending with her and even stayed late to help her through a thunderstorm. I have had not better sitter fro my best friend.”

Aislyn C.
“Aislyn has watched my 2 cats (Otis and Willie Nelson) and dog (Zack) on several occasions. My cats can be a bit of a pain to manage but he was very good at following the many specific instructions that we left. My normally shy cats loved Aislyn right away which was such a relief! Aislyn is communicative, kind, thorough, and adaptable! I highly recommend him!”


Joshua N.
“To whom it may concern, I’m writing in testimony of Josh working for your company. I’ve known Josh personally for just about 3 years now and in my experience he has been and extremely kind and caring person. Especially towards animals! We’ve asked him many times to check in on our animals while away and I am VERY picky about who I ask to enter my home and handle my animals. Seeing how careful and caring he is with his own animals he understands how special these creatures are to us. In summary I believe he would be a wonder addition to your team!”
