Dog Walking La Luz De Sol

“Ethanee has been sitting/walking my oliver since he was two months old. He ADORES her and I’m so grateful for her care. She’s attentive, kind, communicative, punctual and respectful of my home/care requests for him. I will use her as long as her schedule allows!”

About: Hello! My name is Kailey… but you can call me KACI!🖤 I’ve dog-sit🐶, cat-sit🐱, guinea pig-sit🐹, bunny-sit🐰 and rat-sit🐀 since I was 16 for pets of all sizes and personalities. Hence, why I’ve finally chosen to create an account on Rover🐾! (see my testimonials so far). From a quick check-in to an extended stay, I’m here to provide you a reliable, attentive service creating happy experiences through safe and loving care focused on affection, routines, and stress-free time away.<3 I work part-time at a cafe (usually early mornings) and I’m also a Film student here at UNM🎥. Despite that, I have open availability and all the time in the world for your fluffy friends!☺️ I have a fenced yard and 3 friendly puppies; 2 miniature poodles (Leo and Raphael; boys) and 1 little wiener dog (Splinter; girl). They all follow morning and evening feeding schedules, regular outside time, as well as walks to our local dog park that’s just down the street from where I live!🏞️ When it’s time to settle down, they get put in there kennels at night… along with their many toys (their cuddle buddies). Aside from the occasional treat and many many cuddles, that’s about all that’s needed to keep them happy and healthy. c:

“Pogo loved Jennifer. She is so kind and caring and dependable. Pogo is full of life and can be a handful at the door, excited to see Jennifer, and she was able to handle settling him down and getting his harness and leash on easily. He looked forward to her coming to walk him twice a day. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone needing someone to assist with dog walking.”

About: I have had cats and dogs around since I was a child. I have been boarding for almost 2 years, and walking/doing check-ins for nearly 8 years. I started out doing walks to help fill my want for pets. But now that I have two of my own, I realized this is something I really love doing and it is always a joy to meet other peoples' fur babies. In my home, I do have one other dog who LOVES to play and gets along with every animal and human he meets. I have a scaredy cat, and a handful of kiddos who I have taught animal etiquette to since they were all babies. We have cared for the smallest dogs to the largest. We have had older dogs, puppies, dogs recovering from surgery, and females in heat (although not at the moment until our puppy is fixed). We love your babies like they are our own, and love to be able to take them with us if we ever go on any adventures while they are here (of course, with permission!) I am a stay at home mom, so I am home the majority of the day to care for any animals in my home. My kids are AMAZING with animals, as I have taught lots of animal etiquette over the years caring for animals -- and now that we have our own fur babies too. In my home, we just treat your fur babies like one of our own. We give them lots of attention, play time, walk time, etc. I also incorporate your schedules with ours (ie feeding, etc). If there are any special requests, I fulfill those needs. When I go to a clients home, I respect everything around me and be as gentle and careful as to make sure that the fur babies are comfortable with me in their home.

“Hector has been a fantastic dog walker for Dolly. She adores him and looks forward to their walks. Hector is consistently prompt and flexible with scheduling, making it easy to coordinate even on busy days. Highly recommend his services! He is reliable, caring, and a great fit for Dolly!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. From dogs and cats to horses, birds, fish, and even ferrets, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my days with so many wonderful animals over the years. Each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and companionship, and I carry that experience with me into every pet I care for. Right now, I share my home with a lively crew—a sweet senior Husky hybrid who’s 15 years old, a playful 7-month-old Cattle Dog, two affectionate cats (one a sprightly senior of 14 years), and a handful of fish who bring calm and beauty to my space. Because of them, I have firsthand experience with pets at every stage of life. I understand the patience and special attention seniors need, as well as the energy and safe guidance puppies and kittens require as they grow. My passion for animals has inspired me to pursue a career as a Veterinary Technician, but no matter the path, one thing is certain: caring for animals will always be at the heart of what I do. I love spending time outdoors with pets, going on walks, playing their favorite games, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet snuggles and gentle care, I’ll treat them like one of my own. When your furry (or feathered, or finned!) family members are with me, you can feel confident that they’ll be cared for with warmth, patience, and lots of love. I’m available bright and early in the mornings all the way through the evening for drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins. My regular availability is from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM every day of the week, weekends included. I understand that every pet and family has different routines, so I’m happy to be flexible and work around the times that suit you best. I’m also available most weekends for house sitting, giving you peace of mind that your pets (and home) are well cared for while you’re away. If there’s ever a time I won’t be available, I’ll always update my schedule in advance so you’ll never be left guessing. My goal is to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets! I am able to travel throughout the county and city, and I’m comfortable caring for pets in a wide variety of environments, including apartments, houses, farm properties, sidewalks, parks, and outdoor settings. No matter the location, I make it a priority to ensure pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I follow all owner instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, or special accommodations. Maintaining consistency is important, and I will make sure your pets’ routines are carried out to your exact standards. While house sitting, I provide ongoing attention and companionship throughout the day, and during walks or check-ins, your pets will always have my full, undivided focus. I ensure that pets have access to fresh water, proper meals, and any other care items they may need. I am also fully comfortable working in all types of weather and terrain, so your pets’ care will never be disrupted by outside conditions.

“Bill did a wonderful job walking Callie every day. She usually doesn’t just go off with somebody new that she’s never met. But she really liked Bill from the start. The whole week went very well. Bill is a very kind man with a warm heart toward animals. I will definitely use him again when I need somebody to watch Callie or to walk her.”

“We all love our pets and in Lucy's care I can rest assured that my dog Max is well taken care of and in great hands!! He might even like her more than he likes me but that's ok.”

“Greg had worked with my dog a year and a half ago, and it was a very good experience. Sadly, that dog passed away but now I have a new dog and I reached out to Greg to see if he could help me get Scooby some extra exercise. He jumped right back in and is helping me and Scooby get off to a good start from the shelter! Greg is great with dogs, and very respectful when it comes to scheduling and communication”

“Alyssa is fantastic, she let's me know how Bailey is behaving during walks and always uploads multiple pictures from the walk. Bailey loves having her come by.”

“Kristle did an awesome job checking on and walking both my dogs together. Both of them are strong and my younger dog can be a challenge. She communicates well and sent me pictures. She went above and beyond what I asked. I will certainly be asking her to walk my dogs in the future! ”

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs since I 10. Anytime they went out of town, they called me to make sure to feed them or bring them over to my house while their gone. I work part time as server and the rest of the time I work and go to school at home, leaving me with plenty of time to be your furry friends companion. I have a little dog park at my apartment, as well as plenty of space to walk the dogs around my building. I also offer to take care of your animals at your home if that’s what you prefer.

About: In college I was a house and pet sitter. I have had pets since I was in elementary school and am now a senior. I currently have three dogs of my own. I’m emotionally intelligent and good to work with. I work a half day as an Occupational Therapist educator in Wednesdays and as an OT practitioner on Fridays. I would be available in the afternoons on these days. I will not take care of pets in my home but am happy to come to yours to care for, walk, pet and feed your fur babies.

“Tucker has really enjoyed his walk time w Amber. She is great.”

“Rachel is prompt and easy to talk to. She pays attention and was really great with our dogs, who are a handful to walk. We will be booking her for pet sitting this month for sure.”

About: I’ve always had a variety of pets in my house. Growing up my family cared for dogs, turtles, fish, hamsters, frogs, hermit crabs, and chickens. We never owned a cat because my mom is allergic to them but since I moved in with my auntie during university, I have lived with one and have loved it! With my grandma, we currently have 6 dogs! We had two (a chihuahua mixed with poodle and another mixed dog) who are the parents of the other four. I was the only one in my house present when my doggy gave birth to all her babies and I was more than excited to be there with her :) I’m a full-time university student at NMSU. I made this account because I plan to be available everyday during my breaks. This might change for a couple of days but I’m not sure yet. Since I will be on break I also plan to be available nights and weekends. My dogs are family dogs and live outside. I don’t have a house of my own but live with my grandma and mom along with my three siblings and one cousin. The dogs are cared for amongst all family members.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. Since I was 12, it’s been my responsibility to take care of our English Setter. This began with me helping to train him. My role was to reinforce the lessons taught at the PetSmart classes. I’ve regularly walked, bathed, and taken to the vet our dog as well. I love animals of all kinds and care a lot about giving them the loving attention they deserve. I currently work part time 6 days a week, with Sundays off. I work from home, and regularly have mornings and early afternoons completely available. I have more than enough time for several appointments just about every day of the week. At the moment I do not own any pets, as my landlord does not allow it. I am unable to provide any services that would require my home. But I’ve lived with and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, with great regularly since I was 12. I know what I’m doing when it comes to our furry companions. I’d love to provide walks, visits, and any other services I can.

“Opal and Andrew were amazing! Great communications (with me AND Poppy ?), on time, very patient with an over eager pup... We plan to be repeat business right away!”
