I am pursuing a master's in computer science at UNM, and my schedule can be flexible. I will be home for the most part, but if I ever need to step away it's only for a couple hours. My boyfriend and I work as a team in caring for our dogs, and we do the same for our clients. It's normal for your pet to feel homesick, so we do our best to make them feel like they are at home and give them the quality time and affection they are used to from their loved ones ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

Baxter is 9 yo pit mix & Chiqui is an 8 yo Pomeranian/chihuahu. We have a small fenced yard and a kennel that Baxter uses for whenever we have to leave the house to run errands. Our dogs sleep in their beds upstairs in our bedroom, and we set up your pet's bed next to us as well. We typically ask clients to bring their pet's bed or crate/kennel and a blanket or toy they like to cuddle with to remind them of home 🤍 If you could also pack their food, food bowl, and leash for their stay, that would be great! 🐾

Information Liz S. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet have any allergies or take any medication I should know about? Does your pet get a long with other dogs? Does your pet need daily walks? Does your pet eat any table food or no table food at all?

A typical day

During the summer, I usually take the dogs for a walk between 6-6:30am before the sun rises and it gets a little warm outside. During the winter, I like to take them out in the afternoon. We usually walk around our neighborhood (1/2 mile distance) 🐕‍🦺

A cozy, caring home away from home

Pet care experience

Volunteered at a vet clinic & pet sat for friends and family & discovered the joy of comforting pets when they're feeling anxious and home sick.

Liz and her family were amazing. They took care of Lando as if he were at home. They have two great dogs, one of whom kept Lando happily busy playing. Liz was excellent at communicating and sent me regular updates and pictures of Lando. I absolutely recommend her, and I will definitely book with her again.

Liz and family were wonderful with our short notice plans and kept Chloe after a meet n greet. Chloe was welcomed into their home and had a fun weekend hanging out with them. I was relieved to know that Chloe was so comfortable there she ate her food and explored the yard. This was a great experience and we hope to book Liz again

Superb experience... Mushu was well cared for and we couldn't have asked for more. Liz kept us informed with pictures and notes all the while we were out of town. Mushu had play time, cuddle time, relax time, and fun times with Liz. We will definitely seek her care in the future. Thank you, Liz and Cory.
