Doggy Day Care in Kirtland Community, Albuquerque

“Kind, patient, helpful, friendly, professional… Those are just some of the words I would use to describe Holly and Robert. I’m very thankful for their help with my standard poodle.”

“Sending Jyrah to care with Sam is such a joy. Sam is so attentive to Jyrah and her energy level and Jyrah loves her so much, she can hardly wait to get to her when she greets her in the mornings as Jyrah stays with Sam for day care. She most recently cared for Jyrah while I was on travel and I was so relieved to know how dedicated Sam is to going the extra mile to ensure she is in tuned with Jyrah's needs and her tendencies to need some additional connection at times.”

“Melissa and her sweet family took such great care of my high energy dog. Not only did she send a ton of adorable pictures of the pack exercising & snuggling, but from the moment she greeted my dog, I could tell she was in good hands. I definitely will be using her services again, my dog came home super tired and looked so happy throughout the day! Thank you Melissa!”

“Jody was a great sitter for doggy day care on short notice! She was very thorough in asking about our dogs and understanding what they were and weren't comfortable with.”

“I am so glad that Maggie took care of Sol. My little Sol immediately liked her and walked in like it was her house. Birthday is the cutest friendliest dog ever. And I cannot express how grateful I am for your care with my baby especially during a stressful week.”

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. As the founder of a nonprofit rescue, I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to introverted senior cats, and I truly believe every animal deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I specialize in shy, quirky, or high-needs pets—those who might take a little extra patience (and maybe a snack bribe or two) to warm up. The photos you see here? They’re a mix of foster pets, my personal pets, and beloved dog-sitting clients. If your pet has ever been described as “a little dramatic,” “selectively friendly,” or “too smart for their own good,” we’ll get along just fine. My approach is gentle, flexible, and grounded in experience—and lots of treats. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and personality, whether they’re a wild child or a cuddle bug. My goal is for your furry family member to feel right at home—even when they’re not. Someone is home most of the day, so your pets will have plenty of companionship. We’re only ever away for a max of four hours at a time—perfect for pets who need extra snuggles or supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love making new pals. I can easily crate your pup if needed or keep them separated if they prefer their own space. My home is pet-proofed, cozy, and always full of love (and treats).

“Marcelle was incredibly communicative and accommodating with our schedule. Our pup was immediately comfortable around her and her Great Dane. He was completely tuckered out in the best way possible when we picked him up. 5/5 service.”

“Rex had a great time with Laura. He came home tired and slept for two days being a large German Shepherd. Laura sent me an email along with a photo of Rex every two days which was also awesome.”

“Jessie is such a good dog friend. Juniper loves it at her house”

Maren N.

“Melinda was very interested in getting to know our dog. She asked a lot of questions about his behavior, his personality, his normal day, etc. She was very concerned about making our dog feel like he was as much at home as possible. Peso seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We would definitively recommend Melinda for dog sitting. She was quick to respond to messages, and she sent us a picture of Peso. We would use Melinda again if we are visiting Albuquerque in the future.”

“Gus had a great day with Devta and her sweet dog Olive! We received a number of photos, all showcasing how relaxed he was with her in her home and large backyard. I appreciate her experience in dog training and was so happy that she was willing to continue with Gus during his stay. He came home all tuckered out, which we know is a great sign of a happy pupper! We can't wait for Gus to spend more days with Devta and Olive!”

“Sarah has been so great taking care of Nalia. Nalia and Prince get along very well, and I really appreciated Sarah taking the time before our first doggy day care day to make sure they were a good fit. She has been incredibly flexible with my schedule and Nalia always comes back happy and sleepy!”
