Doggy Day Care in Los Alamos

“Sue was the PERFECT sitter for our pup. She’s sweet, kind, and professional. She’s easy to communicate with and took time for my dog to become comfortable. My dog seemed to love her time there, especially playing with the other sweet dog. We’re so thankful we found Sue to care for our dog.”

About: I’ve spent the past 5 years rescued animals, volunteer at shelters, and caring for pets of all kinds.I currently have a 10month old German Shepherd mix who loves playing with all kinds of dogs, kids, and people. Right now, I’m available for full-time pet care on weekends. I work a full-time job during the week but I’ll be fully available for pet care throughout the entire month of July. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and take my dog to the dog park every day. We also go hiking often! I’ll treat your beloved pet like family in your home or mine!☺️ I’m also very flexible with schedule changes or anything!

About: I provide attentive, loving care and treat every dog like my own. I’m patient, reliable, and very observant, which helps me quickly pick up on each dog’s routine, personality, and needs. I have experience with puppies, including basic training reinforcement, potty routines, and crate training, as well as senior dogs who may need extra patience, slower walks, medications, or special diets. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent schedules, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, and plenty of attention. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and I’m flexible with walks, medications, and special care needs. My routine is calm and structured, making it especially ideal for puppies who need consistency and for senior dogs who benefit from a relaxed, attentive environment. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family with a calm, safe environment, regular feeding, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow any training rules, dietary needs, and medication schedules closely. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine. This includes feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, administering medications if needed, and giving affection and companionship. I also make sure the home is respected—bringing in mail, cleaning up after pets, and keeping everything tidy. I always provide updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Kendell is excellent! We were worried about finding a sitter during a road trip, and we are lucky that Kendell was available to sit Bella for a couple of hours! She is very attentive and took good care of Bella, and even left us a summary of the walks she took her on and how Bella did with her dinner. We are extremely grateful!”

“Katie is wonderful!!! I was traveling for work away from my usual support group for my dog, and Katie instantly made me feel at ease. She’s kind, patient, and and great with anxious dogs like mine! 10/10 would recommend if your dog needs a friend in Santa Fe!”

About: I was very lucky to grow up in a house with many pets, including many dogs, cats, fish, and birds. I love all types of dogs from tiny shitzus, to the largest Rottweilers. I also love all cats, from the ultra-fluffy cuddlers to the lone-lions. I believe that all animals deserve loving homes and that they are essentially doing their best; and it is us as owners who can show them how to behave, communicate, and love in our hooman world. I have pet-sat for my family and friends many times over the years, and have experience in animal rehabilitation, including dogs and cats with medication needs and injuries. My partner and I have a sweet German Shepherd/Golden Retriever who we’ve raised and trained since she was a puppy, and we have a cuddly rescued turkish angora cat. They mean so much to us! I strive to give other pets the same level of love while their hoomans are away. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule. I’d be available to come feed, play, walk, and hang out with your furry friends at most hours of the day on any day of the week— and would be open to overnight stays as well! Sometimes I travel for work, in which I would let clients know in advance when I am not available. I am an excellent communicator and will be available for calls/texts and updates whenever appropriate. I will make sure to note all client details down so that I do not miss any important routines. If/when we offer boarding or day-care, we have a large fenced backyard for the pupps to play in (supervised). We ask that any dogs we board be cat-friendly, and non-aggressive.

“Ashlene and Elijah did a great job watching our older dog for a long day. They sent updates, pictures and videos. We appreciate them taking a last minute request for doggy day care.”

“Patris was wonderful with my standard poodle, Argent. Argent loved playing with Patris’ dog Ryka Kai. And then Patris took them for a walk and playtime with some other great dogs -all of which Patris captured on videos which she sent me. Argent left his play day happy! I will definitely have Argent stay with Patris again.”
