“Kimberly did great with our cats! She checked in with them twice a day and she made sure everything was comfortable for them. Even our younger one that is a little more skittish warmed up to her over the few days we were gone. I would highly recommend her for anyone that maybe has some anxiety about leaving their pets alone. She'll make sure that they're well loved and taken care of!”
“I am so happy with the service I received from Lisa! Everything that needed to be done was completed and my house was just as I left it. I feel blessed that I had such a skilled pet sitter and loved all the pictures. Getting the information everyday helped put my mind at ease that my very old kitty was in the best hands.”
“Joy went above and beyond while looking after Kitty for two weeks. She made sure my cat was comfortable, healthy and loved. Great communication with lots of pictures and laughter. Joy has a very interesting way of life, avid about health, care and nutrition.”
About: My name is Juliette Conzuelo, I been working with animals for 10 years now. Now being around other peoples fur babies is my part time job that I enjoy soo much. I will give full care and love toward the animals you hold dear to your heart and treat them as my own giving them their space and patience to letting them to get to know me. I make sure to play and walk animals and that they are promptly fed during their accustomed feeding hours and make sure any medicine is taken when needed. I always make sure water bowls are filled. I have six babies of my own, four dogs and two cats and I am fortunate that my little babies have uplifted my spirits on bad days and in return I like to give them the joy of just being outside for a hike or go backpacking, playing or cuddles! I can do housesits from San Felipe to any where near by Jemez, Santa Ana, Bernalillo, Rio Rancho, Santa Fe, Albuquerque. For check ins and dog walks I prefer to be close to home from San Felipe to anything in between Rio Rancho.I do check ins at 10am - 6pm. Dog walks are also from 10am-6pm. I will not do any boarding or pet care at my own home. I have too many animals, would not want to overwhelm any animals.
“Misty stayed at our house, taking care of our two cats and did a great job!! Our cats are very skittish, and do not really like strangers, but Misty did everything she could to socialize with the cats and make them comfortable. By the end of the stay, I believe the cats were not as afraid, and started warming up to her, which is a big accomplishment! She sent pictures and updates daily, and assured us that things were going well. She kindly agreed to feed and water the wild birds and rabbits, and even sent pictures of them. The house was immaculate upon our return, and we knew that the cats were safe and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Misty, and look forward to having her house sit in the future!!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life from german shepherds to dachshunds . The only time I can recall not having a dog was the first couple years in the Navy because I was out to sea so much. I love dogs of all sizes! I currently have a 10 year old weimaraner of my own Ari. So your precious pup will have someone to play with while staying with me. I take my own dog on walks/hikes, to dog park, runs, and swimming when we can find water for her. For being in Navy veteran and nurse, I am responsible and will take good care of your pup. Plus, there is vet not even .25 miles from home, if something where to go array which is not likely. Can't wait to meet you and your pup! I am currently in masters program and working remote and essentially here all day with them. Plenty of potty breaks and walks to come. Safe friendly neighborhood I have a fenced yard and lots of easy safe walking my neighborhood. I can crate them if you prefer but they are allowed on furniture here.
“Ally was amazing. So great with our dog Boots. Boots is a one year old, very energetic rescue that is a little shy (at first). Boot warmed up to Ally really fast and they had fun together. Also, my schedule is super whacky and Ally adapted to it. Great communication and lots of pictures. Thanks Ally!”

About: I've handled and taken care of many pets for a long time, ever since I was in elementary school. I have primarily worked at an animal hospital with veteranarians in the clinic while assisting them, administering medication when needed, managing the boarding facility, and deep cleaning. I've worked with dogs and cats from bottle fed all the way to senior care. I'm also very experienced with bird care which is a plus. I'd be more than happy to give your loving friend the care it deserves, while you're away! Currently studying college in online classes, but I can make arrangements to help with your pet's needs, and provide any care for them. Flexibly and easily. I take care of the certain pet(s) depending on the owners desire or needs. But if standalone without any important rules, I always play and spend time with them while doing other activities! (TV, games, cooking, time outside, etc.

Caitlin K.
“I go out of town often, and for the last 2 years Caitlin has been my dog sitter - both me and my dog absolutely love her! Caitlin treats my dog as if she were her own - she loves her, takes her out to play, and gives her lots of caring attention. Caitlin is an animal lover and has the perfect knack for handling dogs. Caitlin has both stayed in my home and taken my dog to her home for sitting purposes, and I am equally comfortable in either situation. Because Caitlin is so responsible and caring, I never have to worry and can leave town with complete peace of mind. I recommend Caitlin to anyone who wants to leave town knowing their dog will be taken care of without any worries!”

“Gary is our pet sitter that has been coming to our home to care for our 4 dogs, 2 cats , 2 horses and 25 chickens. He also cares for our parakeets. So many babies but he does the best job. He stays at our home overnight. The dogs greet him and are so excited to see him. He texts me with updates and photos while away. We don't know what we would do without him.”
Glenda H.
“Glenda is an amazing, caring person, that will go out of her way to make sure that everyone around her is ok. I have witnessed Glenda devoting her life to her family and friends, by being there when they need a helping hand!
