Adventures in love and care

I love dogs. All dogs! And dogs love me. I have an 8 y.o. gentle-hearted Labradoodle female named Mia & a 3 y.o. dachshund name Cooper. We take daily walks in distant places, varying from mountains to riverbanks or parks. It’s all about new adventures, new smells and new friends. Your puppy will have a great time here. I have a car just for doggie transport and would be willing to make pickups and deliveries within greater Albuquerque area. Before accepting a new puppy to my family I request a free of charge Meet & Greet visit to see if everyone is getting along with each other and plays nicely.

Peter is great and takes wonderful care of our dog, Nugget! He’s very communicative and gives us updates throughout the day about walks and how our dog is doing. Definitely recommend!

Peter was amazing! We needed a dog sitter for a few hours while passing through & Peter was great with our pup. He was very kind, very helpful with things for my husband & I to do while exploring Albuquerque. Highly recommend Peter!

Zola absolutely loves her days with Peter and friends (other pups). I can rest easy knowing she's in good hands. He's excellent with communication, great with my dog, and reliable. Thank you Peter for all that you do!

Peter is great! He is welcoming and great with communication. Our dog fit right in with his dogs and he was patient as he got to know our Goldie. We look forward to booking with him again!

The most important thing for me to know about your puppy is how well it plays with others and how well he or she is socialized. I also need to know, if your puppy has any medical condition I need to be aware of. I’ve never given shots and I'm just OK with giving pills. I also need to know what commends (verbal and gestures) your puppy responds to.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
