For more than 30 years, I have cared for my own as well as my children's pets and loved every minute of it. I am retired and I try not to take dogs from more than one family at a time. In addition, I do not currently have any pets of my own. This allows me to provide individualized and specialized care, love and attention to your pet, rather than sharing my time and attention with many pets. Your pet will be a part of the family, in a home away from home, rather than being in a small confined space while you are gone. This is one unique aspect of my pet care services that differs from many pet sitters, boarders and kennels. I own a good size ranch style home with a large fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. Before retiring, I worked as a licensed nurse for 43 years and raised two amazing successful children, during which we welcomed dogs, cats, birds, hamsters and fish into our home. I have cared for pets of friends, family, and love being a pet sitter. I am also licensed by the City of Rio Rancho to provide Dog Boarding and Pet Sitting services. I would love to care for your pets and provide them with love and companionship as if they were my own.
