“It was apparent during our meet and greet that Tara loves animals and all of my animals seemed comfortable with her. She had no problem giving medication to one of my animals. She sent pictures and updates while I was gone. I would definitely use her again if needed.”
“Maria was fantastic. She's sends regular updates and is quick to respond to messages. She took excellent care of our pup and our home. Absolutely plan to check her availability for any future trips.”
“Shannan did a really good job watching our yorkie for a long weekend. She was very good with communication and always sent pictures to us throughout the weekend. She kept the house very clean and we would recommend her!”
“Cienna was perfect! She was so nice, respectful, responsible, and easy to communicate with. We were so happy with all her pictures and updates while we were away, and we returned to a very healthy and happy pup! She took great care of our house and our most precious baby. We would definitely recommend her and will reach out to her anytime we need someone to watch over Prada!”
“Maria was a wonderful pet sitter. My two dogs loved her. She treated them like they were her own. She sent pictures so I could see how they were doing. My house was clean and tidy when I got home. I am very grateful for her great service. I highly recommend her!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Gina and TJ. They went above and beyond for us and our fur babies. Our flight was canceled and we ended coming home a day late, and Gina volunteered to stay and take care of the dogs for another night and morning. She was very communicative the whole time and sent pictures every day. The dogs were happy and relaxed when we finally got back and everything looked perfect. I would very highly recommend Gina for your pet sitting needs and will use her again!!”
“I had an amazing experience with Alexa as our dog sitter. She took excellent care of all three of my dogs while we were away. They looked happy and healthy when we returned. The house was spotless, and all the poop was picked up. She went above and beyond our expectations. Highly recommend her services!”

“Angelina watched our two cats for an overnight stay. We were happy with her service and our cats were, too! One of our kitties needs a lot of attention, so it was good for us to know someone was there with her while we were gone. We’ll definitely book her again next time we go out of town!”

“Bekah was such an incredible house/pet sitter for us! We were gone 3 nights and Bekah did an amazing job taking care of our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She even watered our plants, put out our trash can for trash day, folded our laundry, and changed/washed the sheets and towels she used while here. We loved seeing pictures of our pets while we were gone too! She definitely went above and beyond. We will definitely ask Bekah to come take care of our babies again. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs most of my life. I’ve been trusted by neighbors, families, and friends to take care of their furbabies while they’ve been out of town. I trained my husky when she was a puppy, and trained my shepherd/husky mix after rescuing her from the shelter. I’m currently unemployed, so my schedule is very open! Whether you need me to stay at your house or just drop in to let your furbabies out, I’ll be available. I’ll make sure to keep your furbabies on whatever schedule they’re used to. Whether it’s for feeding, being let out to go potty, medications, etc. I’ll give them a lot of attention and make sure they feel loved while you’re gone!
About: My whole life I've been surrounded by pets. I was born into a house with a bird and 2 dogs, but once I turned 5 I had convinced my mother to bring home a cat from the grocery store after absolutely falling in love. Years down the line I moved and eventually had 4 dogs that I walked, played with, fed, bathed and mostly took care of myself. With time I moved in with my brother to help him take care of his house with 11 guinea pigs, 3 cats, and a leopard gecko! Once I turned 18 I was finally able to adopt my own cat, and since then I have adopted another one and who brings me so much joy. I love all animals and will take care of yours like my own! I am free everyday, weekdays and weekends! I am willing to change my schedule around to fit your needs as Rover is my main focus at the moment! Safety is always my number one priority. I do my best to keep my eyes on pets at all times to make sure they're not doing something they're not supposed to or getting into things they aren't supposed to. For walks I will never just lazily hold onto the leash, instead I'll be prepared like they can run off in any second. When I feed pets I watch them to make sure they don't eat too fast and throw up, and try to encourage them to drink water as well as check to see if they need to go to the bathroom when they're done. If I'm watching a pet and they show any sign of distress it's of immediate concern to me and I will be contacting the parents, as well as a vet if needed. If you entrust me to take care of your pet I will ensure they receive the best care possible until their favorite people get home! :)
“We completely trust Bethany to take excellent care of our pets. She won over our super anxious dog within two hours. That's a record for this dog! She was able to administer eye drops for our oldest dog - something that commonly takes two of us to do. And for our youngest who loves to fetch, play tug, and wrestle, Bethany would play until our boy was ready for a nap. One of our dogs showed unusual behavior, including not eating breakfast (especially worrisome behavior for a dachshund). Bethany was super calm and upbeat while she worked with us to troubleshoot. (Our dog was just stressed. This was the first time in his young life that both parents were gone overnight.) when it became clear he was the issue, she canceled a short outing she had planned for later in the day in order to make his care her top priority. Bethany is an excellent communicator, both by text and by phone. And prompt. Tell her when to arrive, and she will be there at that time. Before we moved to Las Cruces a year and a half ago, we had the same dog/house sitter for 15 years. We dreaded having to find a new one. We are thrilled (not an exaggeration) to have found someone so good on our first try!”

We love Caitlin! I’ve used her twice already and will more than likely again. She is responsive and communication is amazing. She sends daily pictures of our Jade too when we are away. Jade loves her too every picture is a smile :) Caitlin also stays overnight in our home and we trust her it’s like she was never here. She’s the perfect sitter highly recommend!
This was our first time using a pet sitter...needless to say, we were nervous about leaving our dog and home with anyone. Prior to us leaving, Dresden came over twice to go over details, routines, etc. She took notes and seemed to pay attention to our concerns and needs/wants. While on vacation, Dresden replied to all of our calls and texts, and updated us. She even ran our irrigation system when it didn't come on. Although we still had anxiety about leaving our dog for the first time, Dresden reduced that anxiety a lot! Jessi, our dog, seemed to warm up to her and possibly (?) even enjoyed her time alone with Dresden :) We would definitely use Dresden in the future.
Dejanae was amazing! I had to travel out of town and my wife was going to have to work the whole time, so we hired her to watch our dog and cats and she loved on them, kept them company, even our shy cat Reggie came out to say hello. She was great and we 100% recommend her!
Rebekah took care of our dogs and cats while we were away. She made sure they had everything they needed, including administering medication to a cat and dog. She showed compassion in caring for an older dog that has accidents in the house and left the house clean and tidy. Will absolutely book her again.
