Loving Dog Sitters! 🐶💕

Hello fur baby owners and dog lovers! 🦴 I’ve raised many different dog breeds and grew up with dogs my whole life. I've helped my neighbors, family members, and friends with walking, feeding, bathing, and boarding their furry friends! I’ve also raised many litters of puppies and I have lots of experience taking care of pregnant dogs.

I am grateful they had a full understanding how to introduce themselves to my baby. My puppy tends to be really shy around new people but with their understanding she was comfortable with them within a few hours. They took good care of my baby and kept me up to date with photos on how she was doing. I recommend and would most definitely take Chiquita again.

They took really great care of Sophie, and always made sure to send lots of pictures. I really appreciate them agreeing to take Sophie in, especially on such short notice!

Incredible! Kind, prompt responses every time. Safe home. Perfect yard for dogs. Helen and her partner love dogs. Their dog was very kind, amicable, and great with my dog. Already booked again!

Helen, Trishton, and Autumn are the best! Our two dogs love staying with them and having another play buddy, Autumn. We received regular pictures of our dogs having a blast. Every picture showed them truly enjoying themselves which made us feel so good knowing our dogs were well taken care of. Helen and family are well prepared. We forgot some items (dog blankets, food bowls) but Helen had extras and saved us a second round trip. We would highly recommend them for pet sitting!

Helen & Trishton were wonderful! Kept us regularly updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was not only well cared for, but also genuinely happy and comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

We recently moved to Alamogordo, NM from Colorado Springs, CO and we’re looking forward to taking care of the dogs here! Since I am a military dentist, I usually have work all day (from 7am-5pm) but my boyfriend does school online at home so you can board your furry friends here any day of the week! I live in a gated house and a quiet neighborhood so your fur babies will be happy and safe in our care.
