“Leah has done an amazing job with both of my frenchies, Zeus and Odin. She stops in to check on them, and since Odin is still a puppy (12 weeks) it can be a lot at times. Her attention to detail and commitment to treating my pups as if they’re her own really shows.”

“Monique was very accommodating. I scheduled time sort of at the last minute since I had just found out I was leaving town. And then I got back earlier than expected but she was fine with all of it.”

“My cat adored Ali. They played and cuddled, and of course Ali fed her well and groomed her and took good care of her and the house. She reliably kept her appointments for two weeks and sent me great photos and messages twice a day. I will absolutely use Ali's services again!”

“We always rely on Brigit when we are out of town. We were gone for three weeks recently and we felt so much better knowing that we had her taking care of them twice a day. She is always professional, communicative, and of course sends cute pictures at each visit. I highly recommend her!”

“I am so grateful they were able to drop in on such short notice! They also took pictures and were communicative when needed. I would book with them again!”

“Greg is amazing! He was able to help us out last minute and our Kenzie loved him. He spent time with both my cat and dog and gave them cuddles and attention when we were away. Highly recommend him!”

“Tabatha is the best. She’s a very caring, thoughtful caregiver. Super reliable and responsive with plenty of communication and photos. She even kept an eye on the plants. Will definitely be rebooking in the future if she’s available. Thank you so much Tabatha!”

“Terrance was able to step in at the last minute and come watch my pup for two days. He did a great job and was very responsive. On time. And a pleasure to have watching my dog. I’m definitely going to keep him as a contact for future bookings. Highly recommended.”

“Jaelynn is the best! She’s amazing with the pups, incredibly reliable, and always keeps us in the loop. Her communication is fantastic, and we feel so comfortable knowing they’re in her care!”

“Rachel was amazing, she did everything we asked of her. Our 2 cats are shy but warmed up to her very quickly. She communicated great with us and was very punctual with her visits. She also took the sweetest pictures of our cats for us. Highly recommend her.”

“Patrick is so amazing. I am very grateful for his help with taking care of my pup. He is so flexible and accommodating with scheduling. My dog absolutely loves him.”

About: I have many years of caring for all types of dogs. I have worked with puppies, seniors, reactive/fearful dogs, and working/high energy breeds. I am always up for learning and researching new techniques and skills when it comes to dogs. I have fostered dogs through my local animal shelter for many years which has given me a lot of experience with rescues. I’ve fostered nursing litters, young puppies, and adult dogs with great success! I am always excited to meet new dogs and learn their personalities and quirks so that I can care for them in a way that works best for the dog! I am newly unemployed and dedicating my time to caring for dogs! My schedule is generally pretty flexible, which leaves me time to care for your pets in a way that works for you and your dog! I live in a home with a fenced in yard where dogs can play! I have one dog named Olive, and she is the best with fosters we bring into our home. She will take the lead of other dogs and can play for hours, or just hangout calmly and give space to nervous dogs. I believe in crate training and find it very useful for multi dog households, but if your dog isn’t crate trained we can figure something out! Mental and physical stimulation is one of the most important things for dogs, so I incorporate walks, brain games, and structure whenever necessary! I believe that each dog is unique, so I like to follow their lead in terms of what they require to be fulfilled!
“I can’t say enough good things about Lucas! He went above and beyond to make sure my cat was comfortable and cared for while I was gone. He sent updates every day, including photos, which really eased my mind. I definitely recommend him, and will be using his pet sitting services in the future.”

“Skyler did such a great job catsitting for our two kitties!! She was very communicative and sent pictures while we were gone. Skyler made sure she knew how to administer our cats medications before we left, and we felt confident in her with her past experience. I would definitely recommend Skyler to anyone needing a reliable pet sitter:)”

“Geneva was fantastic with my kitties! She was super responsive and knowledgeable. I felt super comfortable leaving my cats to her for the holidays. Even my cat who is skiddish warmed up quickly to her! Highly recommend for anyone who wants an attentive and friendly sitter. Thanks, Geneva!!”


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.

We hired Levi to watch our cats while gone for 3 weeks out of the country. He did multiple daily checks that involved several tasks, including litter management, feeding, playing, and also took care of our plants. He was easy to get ahold of and is great to work with. Will definitely be using him again.

Jenna was amazing! She was great at giving updates and sending cute photos of my pup every day. My dog was very comfortable with her. I appreciated that she took my packages inside so I feel she is trustworthy. Thank you Jenna for easing my mind during the holiday season with my dog!! It was a huge help. I will definitely rebook in the future.

Holy mackerel! Amber was amazing. She went so far above and beyond to care for our husky and keep us informed. She prepared her meals and snacks and spent time cuddling and took her for walks. She sent pictures every day. We haven’t travelled much in the past few years because we didn’t want to leave our pup but now I am more comfortable taking trips with Amber available. She is calm, patient and reliable. We are so fortunate to have found her! This was a thousand times better than taking her to a boarding kennel!

Catherine was fantastic. My cat Alien loved the attention and daily brushing. Catherine also changed out litter box and vacuumed when it needed it. She also watered my plants. We were gone for almost 3 weeks and I never felt like I had to worry. She also sent photos and videos regularly which I really appreciated. Catherine was very good. I highly recommend her for your house sitting or pet sitting needs,
