Pet care experience

20 Years Experience!

I have fostered or sat for dogs, cats, and reptiles for 20 years. I have taken care of a variety of dog breeds, including Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, Australian Shepherds, puppies and mutts. I've fostered and sat for neonatal kittens, older kittens, and cats. I foster because it is important to me that animals find loving, forever homes. I would love to help you take care of your animals while you are out of your home. Pet sitting allows me to love on animals and for them to love on me! Please contact me with any questions you may have.

Kendra was fantastic and was able to check on my babies after a last-minute request. I will forever be thankful.

Kendra did a fabulous job taking care of my Roxanne and Clancy, she's very firm, loving attentive and good with communication. Couldn't ask for a better dog sitter.

I have a greyhound who is not known for being well-behaved but is known for being anxious. At 3.5 years old, he’s never been with a sitter or in a kennel, mainly due to no availability in Gallup. I had Kendra do drop-by visits over a 3-day weekend. After meeting/talking to Kendra, I was completely at ease. She is well-educated and does this service because of her love for animals/knowledge of the need for this in Gallup. I’m sure there are other good pet sitters, but I just don’t need to look for one anymore. I cannot recommend Kendra enough. I appreciate you, Kendra!

I have known Kendra for over a decade, and I know she is passionate about helping animals, whether it be fostering or pet sitting. She has 18 years of experience working with all types of animals. It is important to her to take care of dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens until they find a loving home. She also works to keep family's pets comfortable and well taken care of when she's providing services. She always reads new blogs and website articles to stay up to date on training, health care, and fostering. I highly recommend Kendra because I know she will care for your pets as she does her own.

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that the animals I take care of are safe and get belly scratches. I sit with them at first to make sure they trust me, and then we will go on walks, play, or just spend time with each other. Animals are like children for me, so they will be loved and well taken care of.

A typical day

We will go on walks on the trail behind my house, and play fetch and tug-of-war. We can also play any game your dog loves!
