Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Tabatha and I started pet sitting for my aunt and her 7 cats when I was 14. I am now 35, and she is down to 1 cat that I continue to care for. I always enjoy the time I am able to spend with different animals as a pet sitter. I grew up in a rented home and wasn't able to have my own pets until I was 16. At 16 I was adopted by a beautiful tuxedo tom cat named "Moo." I had 15 wonderful years with my baby. Now, since he has passed, I find comfort again in spending time with other people's pets (until I am ready for my own). I've been a volunteer at the Albuquerque Eastside shelter, and I am looking forward to volunteering again there this summer. I am also hoping to volunteer at Walking in Circles Ranch as well. I have taken an animal first aide course with the Red Cross and hope to further that knowledge more this year. I have experience with small pets like mice, guinea pigs, and hedgehogs. I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and cats. I also pet/house sit regularly for multiple-pet homes.
Reviews
My dogs came home happy and seemed to enjoy their walk tremendously. Tabatha is a delightful young woman.
Tabitha was awesome and very caring towards my puppy! And able to handle a very big dog with skill!
Tabatha was really terrific! My dogs loved her. I think she may have spoiled them more than I do, and I really appreciate that. She watched them for two weeks and sent me pictures and updates nearly every day. She surely understands that they are my fur babies and treated them as such! Thank you Tabatha!
My dog and I both liked Tabatha the moment we meet her. She has "good energy" and is both friendly and professional. Tabitha was right on time for Lila's walk and I could tell by the pictures she took that Lila was having a good time. I'm so glad I found a great dog walker!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When house-sitting I prefer to have a visual walk through of procedures and also written instructions. I follow orders exactly and contact owners if there are any questions. I send pictures often of pets. I keep homes and animal areas as they were when owners left. I am also comfortable administering medications.
Home
Information Tabatha W. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if dogs have certain triggers, allergies, or fears. I need to know whether or not they are food-aggressive or aggressive towards other animals. I would like to know what your pet's diet looks like and if they have special needs. It is also important for me to know what their exercise needs are.
A typical day
I love playing fetch, even if I'm the one who is fetching most of the time, haha! Summer is a great time to take out the garden hose or kiddie pool. I like hiking on the Bosque or at the Elena Gallegos Open Space even though I don't go as fast or as far as some hyper pups might like. I love taking doggies out for a pup cup at Starbucks.
