“We are thrilled to find such a great pet sitter! Our 2 small dogs love Marilyn! She took great care of them, taking them for walks and she sent pictures during the stay, which was very nice!! We have trust and co fierce in her, and have already booked her again!”

“Brigit will be our go to pet/housesitter from now on. She took wonderful, thoughtful care of our senior pups. Our dogs definitely bonded with her during her stay. She was timely and reliable. Brigit is also very sweet and kind!”

“This was Kira's second time taking care of Siggy and Carl. The boys were happy to see here, she communicated well, and everything in the house was in order. Thank you!”

“Susana took such great care of our pup earlier this year that we rebooked her to stay with our dog, Remi, and my parents' dog, Winnie, when we went out of town for a family event. She's such a wonderful sitter. She was in touch each day, letting us know the boys were doing great, and she sent us pictures, too. Her communication was comforting and put my parents at ease that Winnie was having a great time even though they were away. We appreciate Susana so much and will definitely request her help again the next time we leave town.”

“My dogs love Paulina. Not only that, she invested so much time and energy with them. She went far above what I expected. She updated me regularly and sent photos while I was gone. By far the best experience I've had with a long term sitter. I will be booking her services again.”

“Hoss is amazing!!! They were available on unreasonably short notice when the original sitter I had booked randomly disappeared. Our dogs were obsessed with Hoss from the first moment, and I have no doubt our precious ones felt safe and cared for the entire time. On top of looking after two finicky pups (one is elderly and requires medication, one is shy and stubborn, and they are both bratty), they took great care of our home and made sure to send us updates, even going out of their way to hand feed our little girl her kibbles when she went on hunger strike because of our absence. Hoss is attentive and understanding, a true animal lover. And to top it all off they have a great personality, radiating kindness and fun energy. We would be lucky to have them sit for us again. 10/10 highly recommend.”

“Cristina takes excellent care of our furry family while we are out of town. One of our girls is a nervous rescue but Cristina is always up to the challenge. Our two dogs and cat are well fed, exercised and loved as if they were her own. Plus, Cristina leaves the cutest report cards whenever we return!”

“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.”

“We had Brieanna sit our two dogs and our cat over Thanksgiving and she was a lifesaver! She sent us regular updates and great photos that made us feel much better about leaving them. She was very honest and contentious about one of our dogs destroying a wastebasket and gave us some great tips about leash training! Our pets had a great time and we will definitely have her sit for us again!”

About: We are excited to offer a loving and happy family home environment for your pet. My three children and husband and I love all types of animals. Our home is a great setup for dogs, cats, or other pets. We have a fully fenced-in yard and a doggie door that leads to the backyard. We live about a ten minute walk from Jeanne Bellamah Community Center where we could take your dog if you want. I have several years of experience, from taking care of my own family pets growing up to volunteering every week for years at cat rescue shelters and dog rescue shelters. I was even employed for 6 months as a live-in dog and cat nanny for 3 pugs, including an elderly 21 year-old pug, and 20 kittens and cats! I have dog-sat and cat-sat and rat-sat on several occasions, volunteered at animal sanctuaries including a month-long stay at Farm Sanctuary, volunteering full-time caring for the resident animals there as well as a couple of week-long stays at Best Friends Animal Society. I really love animals! I know how it feels to wonder and worry about your fur baby at home while traveling, therefore it's very important to me that your beloved pet receives the most loving care as possible and we are committed to giving them all that they need while in our care. I normally only work 1 day a week away from home for about 6 hours, and my 3 year old daughter is always with me so your pet would be getting tons of love and attention, and then even more when everyone else gets home in the afternoon after school and work. The weekends will be totally open for all of us to have fun with your pet. We do have 2 guinea pigs so they'll stay locked in a separate room from the rest of the house while your pet is here. We have a fully fenced-in front and back yard as well as a doggy door. We will follow whatever rules you want for your dog so they are welcome to sleep on our beds with us if you want them to. We are all very active and I walk my kids to school so we can walk your dog as much as you like.
“Abrianna was great! Kind, conscientious, my beasties loved her and happy when we got home. House was clean. She kept in great communication with us and was just a delight. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I have cared for an array of animals over the years including dogs, cats, reptiles, chickens and even pet rats! I deeply enjoy time spent with animals which is why housesitting has always been ideal for me! I myself have multiple dogs and cats that are well cared for and your animals will receive the same attention and care! I am a student at UNM, so most morning I do have to head to campus around 9-10 am. All morning care would be handled before then. My classes have me on campus no longer than 4-5 hours before I would be able to check on your animals. Weekends I work 6-9 hour shifts, but if care requires less gaps between visits this time can be taken off to give your pets around the clock care. This would require at minimum 2 weeks notice and cannot be guaranteed. I am comfortable giving pill or liquid medication for your pets. As well as walking any size dog as long as some leash training is in place. I normally will wash the sheets and towels used if staying overnight! I am very cleanly and will leave your home and pets clean or cleaner than when yall left!
“Juan did a great job with our boy. We got updates and pictures and he was very responsive to any messages we sent while we were away. Took great care of the house as well!”

“Val sit my fur babies twice now and she is phenomenal! My animals were happy when I got home and she did everything I asked. She even went back to stay with my golden retriever Karma when my flight was canceled and I was stuck out of town an additional night. I will definitely be having Val stay with my fur babies again the next time I’m away.”

“Luca was amazing! We had a last minute trip and he was incredibly responsive and was able to meet up for a meet and greet very quickly. He took amazing care of our pup and our home for a few days while we were out of town. He sent frequent updates and pictures and overall was very communicative. Our dog was happy and our house was cleaner than we left it! 15/10, we will absolutely be using Luca again in the future and I recommend you do too!”

“Charles has been great! He took great care of Henry; giving him lots walks and head scratches, and he went above and beyond by sleeping downstairs to keep him company at night. We’re both so grateful.”

Yet again, Autumn went above and beyond in taking care of my beloved cat, Zayda. She sent awesome pictures that showed how well they were getting along, and stayed an extra night when I had to change my travel plans. I trust Autumn completely with my animals, and my animals are my life. I know that she loves my fur kids, too. Very grateful to have found her!

This is my second time having Aislyn take care of my animals and couldn’t recommend them more. Every one of my requests was followed and the dogs and cat were happy and healthy when I got home. Aislyn made me feel super comfortable since this was the longest I’d be away in nearly 10 years. When a flight snafu caused me to need to extend care for another 24 hours, Aislyn was super flexible and quick to reply so I could focus on the stressful travel changes. If I ever go out of town again, I wouldn’t care to use anyone else!

Candace took wonderful care of our dogs over Christmas! She was attentive, reliable, and handled everything with ease, including one of our dogs who requires a little extra patience. Coming home to happy dogs and a clean house was such a relief. We were very impressed and are excited to have found someone we can rely on for our future petsitting needs. We would not hesitate to use Candace again!

Sara is incredible!! She stayed at our house to watch our two cats for a week. We're always nervous trusting someone new with our pets, but Sara put out mind at ease even from the meet and greet with her obvious knowledge and passion. We got frequent updates/photos, she was very accommodating of our kitties quirks, and happy to help with small extra requests (checking mail, putting food out for outdoor cats, etc). When we got back home, everything was clean and tidy, and all critters were happy. Communication, friendliness, cleanliness, and level of care all 10/10. Can't recommend Sara enough, hope she's available in the future!

I cannot recommend Sandra enough!! She is truly an exceptional pet sitter. From the moment she first met my pets, it was clear she had a natural gift for connecting with animals. My dog, who is usually timid, warmed up to her instantly, and my cat (a certified professional skeptic) took a liking to her — which says everything. Throughout the entire week and half I was out of town, Sandra went above and beyond. They followed every care detail perfectly, kept the feeding and schedule consistent, and took the time to play, cuddle, and comfort both pets so they never felt lonely. I received frequent updates with photos and thoughtful notes that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. When I returned home, my pets were relaxed, happy, and clearly well-loved — my dog even looked around the house expecting their new best friend to still be there. The house was spotless, food and water bowls clean, and everything in perfect order. She even left me a thank you note! If you’re searching for someone who is trustworthy, attentive, genuinely caring, and treats your pets like their own, stop looking — Sandra is the one. I am so incredibly grateful for the peace of mind she provided while I was away. I will absolutely be booking with her again! Five stars truly don’t feel like enough.

Renee would be given more than five stars if that were an option! She took wonderful care of our cat and dog, who has eye care needs. We returned from our trip to two very happy furry babies! We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in such loving hands. I highly recommend, Renee! Our furry babies, loved her!

Patricia always takes excellent care of my pup! She seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with him and it’s amazing to feel like I’m leaving him with someone who cares about him. Her extensive experience also helps make my time away worry free. I could not recommend Patricia more strongly.

Grace was absolutely amazing watching Thor! She communicated very well and kept with Thors normal daily schedule which I truly enjoyed. She made it easy to enjoy my weekend and not have to stress on if Thor was taken care of. I highly recommend Grace to watch your dog while you are out of town!
