“This was the second time Maria has watched our dogs, & I couldn’t be any happier with how well she took care of my 2 dogs. She arrived promptly, gave me updates especially important updates about my dogs, & most importantly, my dogs still remembered her & were so happy to see her. Definitely will book her again in the future. Thank you Maria!”


“Shannan did such an amazing job watching my two cats! With every visit I got an update and multiple pictures of them. I could tell she genuinely cared about them! She is very good with cats. Even my shy cat was all over her when she first came to learn how to take care of them!”


“Michelle did an amazing job watching over pets and even found where one had been escaping. She spent the time to fix the area and paid special attention to it when dropping in to check on everything. I highly recommend Michelle.”



“Fantastic! Emily was reliable, friendly, and kind. She took wonderful care of our two cats and provided regular updates with photos that gave us much peace of mind.”


“My first time leaving my furry babies with anyone other than family. Jennifer took excellent care of them and ensured they had everything they needed while we were away.”


“Marcella was great. Very communicative, took plenty of pictures, and my cats seemed to love her right away. I would absolutely recommend her and I definitely plan on employing her again the next time I go out of town.”


“My girls (two pit bulls) are a little special and high maintenance and Jasmine is a perfect fit for them. They both require special attention and I have a lot of specific instructions for them. Jasmine is patient with me and my puppers and has really given me peace of mind. Highly recommend! Super impressed with the app and overall service.”


“When we leave our Goldens in Dani’s care, we never worry about them. She is clearly a dog lover, caring, meticulous about what they need. We appreciate Dani very much!”


“Our cat loves being watched by Amy and Eli D.! Teddy seems like he has been at a vacation; each time we return from ours. It's been great! Our cat is happy and the owner gets updates and beautiful pictures to keep them from worrying :D!”


“Bethany was great, very communicative and flexible! Both cats were well cared for. She gave medication to one cat and was very understanding when he was being uncooperative. Would definitely book again.”


About: Give your pets the compassionate care they deserve when you're away! My 15 years of hands-on pet-sitting experience, combined with over a decade of personal pet ownership, means your furry family members will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a special affinity for senior pets, understanding their unique routines and comforts, thanks to my experience with my older cat. Let me provide the peace of mind you need, knowing your pets are happy, safe, and loved in my care. Currently going to school so I have plenty of time to check on your furr babies throughout the day. I am free early in the morning and evening. Rest assured, your cats and dogs will be in experienced and playful hands! My own two sweet indoor cats thrive with plenty of toys and two large scratchers, so I understand the importance of keeping indoor felines happy and entertained. I absolutely adore playing with my own cats and dogs, and I'll bring that same genuine love and active engagement to your pets, making sure they feel secure and well-cared for in their own environment.

About: Hey there! I'm Tara Marksberry, and I absolutely adore animals! With 15 years of experience in pet sitting, veterinary offices, shelters, and boarding facilities, I've had the joy of working closely with furry friends of all kinds. I'm certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I pride myself on being dedicated, punctual, and loving in all aspects of pet care. Your furry companions deserve nothing but the best, and I'm here to ensure they receive just that. Thanks for your time, and have a wonderful day! I work full time from 8:00am to 5:00pm on the east side of Albuquerque. I am completely comfortable staying in your home and will generally remain there unless I’m running to the store or heading to grab something for dinner. Depending on the proximity of your home to my employer I may be able to conduct afternoon drop in visits. Early morning feeding or medication schedules are no problem! While at your home your pets safety is my first priority. I will never leave your pet unattended in the yard and make a habit of checking gates and fences while we’re outside. I will never open the front door in a manner that could allow a pet to escape and will not invite any unauthorized guests or my personal pets into your home. I like to provide picture updates to you throughout the stay so you can rest easy knowing your pets are happy and healthy. I do prefer to have written care instructions to reference so I make sure I’m taking the best possible care of your pets.

About: I have owned several of my own dogs and 1 cat named Chica and also taken care of other people's dogs all my life. I have had several mixed dogs, I chihuahua, and 1 german shepherd. I have taken my friend's dog for walks to get the nervous energy out of him so he won't be so high strung. I'm currently working from 6am to about 3 pm Monday thru Fridays. I am available after 3pm, and available Friday evenings and Saturday in the day. I live in an apartment that does not allow pets, so I won't be able to board pets in my apartment. I have no pets of my own at this time.

About: My whole life I've been surrounded by pets. I was born into a house with a bird and 2 dogs, but once I turned 5 I had convinced my mother to bring home a cat from the grocery store after absolutely falling in love. Years down the line I moved and eventually had 4 dogs that I walked, played with, fed, bathed and mostly took care of myself. With time I moved in with my brother to help him take care of his house with 11 guinea pigs, 3 cats, and a leopard gecko! Once I turned 18 I was finally able to adopt my own cat, and since then I have adopted another one and who brings me so much joy. I love all animals and will take care of yours like my own! I am free everyday, weekdays and weekends! I am willing to change my schedule around to fit your needs as Rover is my main focus at the moment! Safety is always my number one priority. I do my best to keep my eyes on pets at all times to make sure they're not doing something they're not supposed to or getting into things they aren't supposed to. For walks I will never just lazily hold onto the leash, instead I'll be prepared like they can run off in any second. When I feed pets I watch them to make sure they don't eat too fast and throw up, and try to encourage them to drink water as well as check to see if they need to go to the bathroom when they're done. If I'm watching a pet and they show any sign of distress it's of immediate concern to me and I will be contacting the parents, as well as a vet if needed. If you entrust me to take care of your pet I will ensure they receive the best care possible until their favorite people get home! :)

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs most of my life. I’ve been trusted by neighbors, families, and friends to take care of their furbabies while they’ve been out of town. I trained my husky when she was a puppy, and trained my shepherd/husky mix after rescuing her from the shelter. I’m currently unemployed, so my schedule is very open! Whether you need me to stay at your house or just drop in to let your furbabies out, I’ll be available. I’ll make sure to keep your furbabies on whatever schedule they’re used to. Whether it’s for feeding, being let out to go potty, medications, etc. I’ll give them a lot of attention and make sure they feel loved while you’re gone!

About: I am always on time and I genuinely love taking care and playing with animals! Previously having my own dog has taught me many things about pet care. I have all the skills needed to provide great care and attention for your pets. I can provide walking services as well as at home pet care! Im usually only available friday-sunday but I will be available every day for the next couple of weeks. I can come anytime needed on those days. Feel free to contact me about availability. I am able to provide them with lots of attention with every visit! Im able take care of their water, food, and bathroom needs. I am also able to provide them with exercise like walking and playing.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and understand the importance of their well-being. I am certified in pet CPR and first aid, ensuring your little one’s safety at all times. Whether your furry (sometimes scaly!) friend enjoys long walks, cuddling on the couch, or playing fetch in the backyard, I'll tailor their experience to suit their preferences and needs. I am currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to see to your pet’s needs and meet your schedule! I am very detail oriented and rely on strong communication from the pet parents so that we can maintain the health and safety of your pet from any distance. I will follow your guide as it relates to your pet but I will also reach out if I believe there is more or different enrichment I can provide while you are away.

“Alex did a wonderful job and provided us with pictures of Max and Morgan each visit. We will certainly use her again in the future!”


“Levi was able to watch my little pug on short notice. He is very quick with communication and my pup was happy and healthy when I came home. Thank you!”


About: I grew up taking care of my childhood dog, as well as chickens, horses, cows, and goats. I provide compassionate care for neighbors, friends, and family’s animals, that includes feeding, bathing, and going on walks. I received my bachelor’s degree that is geared towards animals and have pursued a career that allows me to care for our four legged friends. I’m currently working full time, Monday through Thursday. I’m available for boarding Thursday after 6 pm and on weekends to care for and play with your pups! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I as well can easily crate train your dog if needed.

Kaitlyn O.
“Kaitlyn has cared for our animals several times and we are huge fans! She handled senior cats with calmness and affection, administered insulin and other meds, and won them over after only a few minutes. Our two dogs love her and she continues to help us reinforce their training and obedience as they've moved past the puppy stage. She cares for them all as if they were her own and we trust her with them and our home. The only hard part is sometimes our pups seem to be sad she's leaving and they are stuck with us! Highly recommend her and her love for our fur babies.”
