Our girl Honey is an older dog with hearing a vision issues as well as doggy dementia. Needless to say, we get nervous about leaving her. Luckily, Leah was fantastic with her over the five days she watched her. She also took wonderful care of our house. Honey is looking forward to seeing Leah again soon :)

Lucas was great! He reached out every day we were gone and even helped water our plants. The house was in order when we returned and most importantly our dog seemed happy and well cared for. We will definitely be using Lucas again in the future.

Brigit is the BEST. We have had her house sit with our dogs multiple times and we have been so grateful. She’s the sweetest person and i know she’s taking care of my dogs. We never have to worry when we are out of town. I got a ton of packages delivered while she stayed and she was amazing and made sure all of them were inside even though they were VERY heavy. We will continue to use Brigit anytime we need a dog/house sitter.

Juan was great! He came to my house last minute while my husband was in the hospital and stayed with Bacon for us. He took great care of our baby. He actually had him come back the next day to help again.

Very communicative and easy to get ahold of. They were able to extend out stay last minute due to a funeral, which we (and the dogs!) really appreciated. House looks great on return and dogs are well cared for. Our go-to family for dog sitting.

Alexus was so sensitive to our nervous pup, Rusty’s needs! He’s new to us and was anxious about us going out; he apparently was jumping up thinking we were home every time the heat came on, so she turned down the temperature so he could be more relaxed. Thank you so much, Alexis!

My dogs and I loved having Lauren stay with them. She is observant and trustworthy. I can tell how they connect with her that they felt at home with her. My 2 large dogs are high energy and talkative. They have been difficult to manage for friends and family in the past. Lauren was able to communicate with them and set firm boundaries. I really appreciated having her stay, spend time with them, and know they were safe and loved with her.

Jennifer was an absolute life saver in caring for my 2 unique little chiweenies who are not used to other people, let alone Mom being away. They warmed up to her so fast and I came home to 2 very happy and cared for dogs. Jennifer communicates frequently and sends lots of pics which I so appreciate and dealt with some of my diva dogs behaviors like a total pro. I am so grateful.

We appreciate her staying over and keeping Maggi company. She even notified me about Maggi taking all her medication at a specific time. We will definitely have Amber again 💓

About: Definitely most comfortable with dogs as I’ve had them most in my life, but I also adore cats and honestly any other sweet babies you’d need me to watch. I don’t currently have any pets of my own but my sister has two dogs that I consider my foster children and see them multiple times a week as well as sit for them. I also am an amateur photographer, I Just love taking pictures, especially of animals. So you might get some pictures of your cuties as well! I’m currently in between jobs and professions trying to figure out the next chapter of my life, but what I do know is that I love animals so if I could use this time to help other people with their sweet animals, it inadvertently helps me also :) I have a small one bedroom Casita, but I do have a fenced in little backyard as well. There are also many trails around me that I walk in the north valley

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!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including playful puppies, senior dogs, and those who may be anxious or need extra patience. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and providing calm, attentive care. I focus on creating a safe, loving environment and treat every dog like my own while keeping owners updated and confident in their pet’s care. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I have classes at UNM on Tuesdays and Thursdays and work only a couple hours on Wednesdays and Fridays, which allows me to plan my availability responsibly and provide attentive, reliable care. I’m organized, communicative, and make sure each pet’s needs are met without feeling rushed. I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible, whether in my home or a client’s home. This includes feeding on schedule, regular walks or playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and providing a calm, safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort—especially puppies, senior dogs, or anxious pets—and adjust my care accordingly. I also keep spaces clean and send regular updates so owners feel informed and at ease.

Roxanne is incredible! I’ve found my go-to sitter for future trips. As a first-time housesitting client, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but she exceeded every expectation, caring for my home and giving my two pups endless love and attention. Her photo updates throughout the weekend were such a thoughtful touch and truly put me at ease. I came home to a spotless house and two happy, relaxed dogs, the best feeling any pet owner could ask for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust completely. I’ll absolutely be booking with Roxanne again! 🐾

Stephanie was awesome with my dogs mouse and tootie! She was willing to meet them 2 times before sitting to help get them comfortable with her, and the second time they saw her they were super excited and happy to be around her, which is awesome! Stephanie walked them together each day in addition to staying over and caring for them at my home. They have special feeding instructions and tootie needs a ton of play, and Stephanie was really up for it and communicated with me and sent me updates, and was all around very professional and kind and great. I feel like my babies are in good hands with her, and when I returned, they were their happy selves and obviously Not stressed. I think Stephanie is awesome and will definitely book again.
