Dog Walkers in Los Alamos, NM

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds, from horses to lizards and everything in between. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior dogs, or pets with special grooming needs—long hair, short hair, or even unique coat types—I provide attentive, compassionate, and reliable care. With years of hands-on experience (and three dogs of my own), I’m confident in my ability to adapt to each pet’s individual needs and personality. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are not only cared for, but genuinely loved. As a full-time college student with primarily online courses, I spend the majority of my time at home—available nearly 24/7 to provide attentive care. From Monday through Wednesday, the longest I am ever away from home is a maximum of three hours, ensuring your pets are never left alone for extended periods. This allows me to give them the consistent supervision, companionship, and care. I provide a pet-friendly home with a fully fenced yard and three resident dogs to keep your furry family members company. When I’m home, the back door to the yard remains open, allowing pets the freedom to come and go safely as they please. Dogs are welcome on the couches here, but I also provide dog beds for those who prefer to maintain furniture-free habits. I am equipped to kennel pets if needed and can adapt to any specific routines or boundaries you’d like in place. In my home, dogs are treated like family—loved, cared for, and given plenty of attention. My role is to ensure your pet(s) and you, feel comfortable, happy, and safe while you’re away

“Shiela is so wonderful. I don’t know what I would do with her her help. Reliable and dependable. Always gives me detailed reports and pictures. My dogs love her.”

My daughter has had experience as well she has had rabbits, hamsters, a dog and cats as well, she grabbed her dog since he was 2 weeks old from a dumpster and cared for him. She taught him many important manners and tricks. I’m currently working at a part time job I will have time to play, feed, or petsit your pet and I will treat it like my own.

“Wow! So thankful for you, Dena! You send incredible updates of the adventures/details of your visit with my puppy! He really appreciates the time you spend with him! We’re so thankful for the bones you left us, they’re saving my fingers :) I appreciate that you are so respectful of our space, and that you have been working on the training cues we’re learning from our trainer. I couldn’t be happier with your help, communication, and care for Klaus! We are so thankful that we found you!”

About: I am an avid pet-loving Minnesota native who would love to watch your pet & house-sit while you are away. I just moved to NM and can't wait to meet new furry friends in a new state. I do dog walking, dog and cat sitting, and house sitting as needed at clients homes. Pet care has been a crucial part of my early twenties lifestyle. I have always been an animal lover, but cannot own a pet myself due to where I live. If I am able to watch someone's furry friends, it makes my day! I keep pets food schedules as close to what they are used to as possible, as well as stay overnight, play with them, and take them on walks. I love to explore my clients backyard when I am pet sitting, whether that be a trail to follow, a pond to walk around, or a neighborhood to admire. I am an active runner, so if your pet likes to run, we can certaintly hit the road and get out some energy! I am always mindful of traffic and keep pets on their leash, unless specific directions are given. We will go on a great adventure, but safety is my top priority.

About: I'm a senior cat and dog adoptee, and I have worked with all types of special care including pills, raw diets, special litter, and disability care. I'm an online masters student in Applied Physics, so I am looking to fill in my time while I wait for internship matches for the next year. I'm willing to do upwards of 5 visits a day, especially if they're close to me. This will fit nicely into my routine as it will help me break from my work in a way that allows me to absorb and understand the material I'm learning. I'm a huge animal advocate, I've actually was a long term volunteer for my humane society before moving to Los Alamos, and I am very strict about my own cat's care. I want to be able to give your pets the same care I give mine. In my home, the senior animals are king. I definitely spoil my babies as needed, making sure to keep them as comfortable as possible. Plenty of space to play, climb, walk, etc. are all a vital part of my care.

“Lee was great with Gobi. They did a fun walk on the river trail together. I'm so happy to have found a helpful person for Gobi when life gets busy.”

About: I recently had my dog pass away and would love the opportunity to be with dogs again. I have had dogs for 15 years, and have flexibility in pet sitting to meet owners’ needs. I work from home during the week and have flexibility to walk and take care of dogs during the day and evening. I can visit your house or have the dog stay with me. I am flexible in staying/visiting another home or have the ability to have a dog stay with me. I live in an apartment with a small dog park and close to walking trails.

About: I am a certified dog tech (Basic obedience training). I have studied animal behavior in the class and the field for about 5 years. I have worked at a dog resort for the past year, taking care of as many as 45 dogs at one time. I have experience with feeding, handling, training, and administering medication to dogs… oh, and don’t forget professional snuggles. And did I mention I also have a fur-baby as my own I take care of full time. I work part time as a server (helps with bills), but am a full-time dog lover. My flexible schedule allows me to give the dogs the endurance, training, or TLC they deserve! I believe dogs are truly a blessing to mankind, therefore, they should get all the (dog specific) care they need and require. I have my own fur-ever friend, so your dog will never be board. Do you have a high needs dog? No worries, I’m trained (past job) to deal with all types of dogs and there specific needs. Have any special requests? No worries, I got you covered. Take care of what you need, worry free, and knowing your dog is being cared for as my own. I also am more then open to sending update videos if you’d like to see how you little one is doing.

“Amy was so great taking my 2 Catahoula’s on an hour walk and feeding them dinner. She was very responsive to any questions that came up. I felt very comfortable with her coming and going from my home with no problems. Thank you so much and will be booking again soon.”

“Susan was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond in walking our dog this week. She’s even helping us to learn how to get him to pull less. It was so nice to know that our dog was in good hands.”

About: I adore animals, but as a single person and a renter, it hasn’t been the right time to have my own yet. Whatever the needs of your pets are, I can provide loving care for them in your home. I have cared for cats and dogs, young and old, and am comfortable administering medications. In terms of diet and exercise, I will adhere to whatever guidelines you say are best. In addition to caring for your pets, I am happy to look after your plants and garden as well. My goal is for both you and your pets to be at ease while you are separated. I am a good communicator and will keep you updated to the level of your liking during my stay. I spend my summers working in Alaska and have a flexible schedule while in Santa Fe. I enjoy exploring new neighborhoods and would love the company of your sweet pet 😊 I am calm, attentive, and will cater activities to suit your pet’s needs. If your pup likes walks or the park— great! If couch hangs and lap snuggles are more their speed— wonderful, I’ll bring a book!

“Chase has been walking my dog for the last few weeks. He is always on time, very friendly, helpful and kind. My dog always enjoys his time with. Phase. I highly recommend.”
