Dog Walkers in Lamy, NM

About: I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes most of my life with various health issues which I’ve been fortunate to learn from. I’ve been raising a now almost 3 year old Rottie pup (Raja); well-versed in training through positive reinforcement and happy to support any training that you are working on while your fur baby is in my care! I send lots of photo updates (I know how daunting it can be to leave your baby with a stranger), and I am always a call away for peace of mind. Know that your pup will be treated as family and very well loved while they are in my care 😊! This is currently my full time gig while I work on becoming a certified herbalist so my schedule is pretty flexible for playing or walking with your pups! I am available Monday-Friday with some weekends depending on the week. I am currently only taking home visits or walks as I get my outdoor area at home more situated! Safety and trust are very important to me, I will never put your dog or myself in any questionable situations, and will make sure our activities are suited to your comfortability. Water and treats are always on hand (let me know of any allergies they may have).

“Lise was amazing to work with would highly recommend!”

About: Bachelors in animal science, with an emphasis in companion animal care and medicine. Two years veterinary experience. I have companion animal training experience and education. Pet care is an important part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time to exercise, feeding, and monitoring pets’ health, ensuring they get the attention and care they need every day. This routine helps me stay connected with animals and maintain my skills in handling different needs, from playful puppies to senior pets requiring extra support. I provide attentive care by staying in owners’ homes or doing daily check-ins, ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in their own environment.

“Angel takes such great care of our pup! She’s quick to respond and flexible with our schedule. Can tell from the pictures she sends that our dog is happy and enjoys walks with Angel.”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life so I understand the basics of training and taking care of them. I currently have an orange tabby named Prince who gets along super well with other dogs and cats! No worries if your pet doesn’t get along with others though, I can also have other people watch him while yours stays. I can care for pets whenever, I have classes throughout the week but since I stay on campus I’m never more than 5 minutes walking distance away from my dorm. On average I have about 3 hours of classes per week day so I’m home the rest of the time. I will be able to board always and do dog walks any day of the week. I have reliable transportation as well. My dorm is quite large so I have space to take care of pets, as well as toys and food and a litter box for cats if you can’t bring yours. I also live in a very outdoorsy campus so I can take dogs on long nature walks.

“Jackie is a great dog walker! She is very communicative, great with our dog and very pleasant to work with!!”

“Brittany is INCREDIBLE. She is made to be working with animals! I feel blessed to be able to leave my pup in her care when I’m at work. She’s professional, provides great updates (with photos), and is an all around wonderful human. I am so lucky to have found Brittany to care for my puppy.”

About: I grew up in a household with cats, dogs, small mammals, exotic and domestic birds, reptiles, and fish. I have experience as both a short and long term pet/house sitter. A large portion of my life has been spent working at pet stores, aquariums, wildlife rehabilitation facilities and with animal trainers so I have good background knowledge surrounding a large variety of animal care. By trade I am a biologist with a focus in the marine sciences. As a full-time field biologist, the field part of my job doesn’t allow me time to have pets of my own. So between field jobs I greatly enjoy the opportunity to pet sit since I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet! I feel that pet sitting is a great way to get some animal time in while also helping out. I am very attentive, caring, trustworthy, and dedicated. Every home has a routine and flow all its own, one of the most important things a sitter can do is maintain that rythem while the pet parent is away, and give lots of extra love too. Thank you for taking the time to review my information, I would be thrilled to speak with you about how we can work together to meet you and your pets needs.

“Diligent and careful. Appreciate his literally going the extra mile”

About: I love all animals and have extensive experience with cats and dogs, from personally owning them myself to volunteering with local shelters. I have done it all. I am pretty flexible. My daily routine already includes taking care of my 5 rescue cats, which includes feeding them and cleaning their litter areas. I like to make sure I make the pets feel at ease however I can. I know this experience can be anxiety-inducing, and I am patient with all kinds of personalities.

About: Growing up and not having pets only made me love them even more as an adult! I have pet sat for many friends, including overnight and enjoy it each time. It’s like spoiling your nieces and nephews but in furry form. Pet care is just a bonus for me, it allows me to love on furry friends, as I do not have any myself. Simply because my housing does not allow it. Weekends are ideal but if it’s stopping by and checking in in the morning or evening, I am absolutely available! The great thing about animals is they can sense the kind of person you are and if they like you or not. Respecting a pets space is just as important as a humans space. I’m like their aunt, I’d spoil them with walks, pets, treats and lots of cuddles!

About: I love meeting new pups and helping them live their best life! Safety is first and I will communicate with you to make sure your dog enjoys their walk and has all their physical or medical needs accounted for. Having two of my own dogs I know how important it is to have peace of mind! My background in addition to pet care and sitting has also involved working with herding dogs on ranches as well as many years of horse, goat, and chicken care! Animals have always been a part of my life and I look forward to using my experience to help you and your animals. SAFETY, COMFORT, and FUN are my highest priorities! I work as a full time artist and walk dogs part time. Typically Sunday through Wednesday are my available days! I’m happy to accommodate your schedule as much as possible. Safety is the priority. Before any walks I will check with you about any safety concerns such as whether your dog has behavioral issues, escapes out the door or out of their collar, or any joint pain or physical limitations they may have. I will tend to stick to routes they are familiar with as this is usually the safest route.

“James was great! Professional, communicative, and went above and beyond. And our animals loved him. Highly recommend!”

About: Upon having taken care of pets for quite some time now. I have learned that all animals need love and compassion like us. I have cared for a variety of animals from mice to snakes and cats to goats. All of the time learning what to do and not to do with every animal. I've always had animals in my life ever since I was a little and I loved to care for them. I was a foster parent for cats a few years back but had to stop when we moved. I've own a few dogs and enjoy the company they have to give to us. I would be more than happy to take care of your babies and treat them as my own.

About: animals are the best, i’ve grown up with cats & dogs my whole life - finally adopting my own in college and they are my bff’s. i always want to find someone reliable & caring to watch my pets when im out of town so i want to provide that service to others !! i’m pretty flexible at the moment! can fit in week days & weekends as well as overnight as necessary - reach out & will work with you! i make sure my pets get alllll the attention, are well cared for and loved as well as properly fed, hydrated and given any other necessary accommodations. i always prioritize a clean house as well! i’m very type A about cleanliness & schedule which my pets sure appreciate!!

About: Your four legged BFF(s) will be treated like family when I'm caring for them. I'm here for the scritches, belly rubs, play time, exercise (and whatever else your dog or cat needs). You will get peace of mind knowing your pet will be loved on and attended to while you're away. It's important to me that your furry friend is 100% comfortable, has fun and is happy. I will enforce healthy rules and boundaries and of course lots of snacks and praise for good behavior. I live in an active household with a dog and two cats. We get outdoors as much as we can for hiking, adventures and exercise. I believe that patience, compassion, exercise and strong leadership are key to maintaining healthy, happy, well socialized companions. There is no such thing as a "bad dog" and there is always room for growth and learning opportunities. I have a fenced yard with one friendly dog. I am in between jobs with a flexible schedule. My days are open for adventures or watching your pup at home or dropping in to your place for a visit/play session. I have one friendly senior dog. I can easily accommodate crate training or can keep your dog separate from my dog if preferred. In your home, I will try to be consistent in following your routine as much as possible if preferred. I will tailor my visits/walks to you and your pet's specific needs and preferences.

“Chase was communicative and so very helpful when I didn’t have time to take care of my pup. I appreciated the photos and the extra help bringing in packages!”

About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for over 9 years and absolutely adore being around them. I can work on basic trainings for puppies, play hard with them, or give them the long walk they need. For senior dogs, I love to give them all the snuggles and pets they need :) seeing them happy makes me happy. Im currently working part time and have a very flexible work schedule, leaving plenty of time to let your dog out, play, or walk your pup during weekdays. Safety is huge when it comes to me watching your pup. Depending on your dog and safety protocols, I will follow them strictly (only allowed in a fenced yard, always leashed on a walk, etc).

About: I started caring for horses,dogs and cats at age 15. We owned a ranch & I cared for all the animals daily. I had clients and friends who relied on me to care for their fur babies. Animals are family and I treat all animals with love and kindness. I also volunteer with the Humane Society and have done animal rescue during hurricane Rita, Katrina and Harvey as well as local rescues. Pet care has always been my passion since I was a child. In the past 3 years my parents passed & I am a breast cancer survivor so pet care is so close to my healing heart ♥ and brings joy to my life I will care for any animal at the owners home and stay over if owners want. I am active & I love to excercise. I will walk dogs several times a day. I am conscientious and respectful of peoples homes also.
