“Shannan did such an amazing job watching my two cats! With every visit I got an update and multiple pictures of them. I could tell she genuinely cared about them! She is very good with cats. Even my shy cat was all over her when she first came to learn how to take care of them!”
“I had a weird situation in which the person caring for my animals abandoned them. Michelle was amazing and accommodating, went to my home after maintenence unlocked my place, cleaned up the mess my stressed out old man kitty made in a tub because he was alone for 4 days. Took care of him and the other 3 at the last minute for a week so I didn't have to leave my job (loose my job) and fly home. I was the most stressed out I'd been in years! But seeing the pics she took of my babies eating fresh wet food and playing every day helped me so much. 10000% recommend her and appreciate her and Rover for being here!! This is great app. Being able to see them check in and out, they can post photos and communicate like texting. Really great and will use again instead of depending on family!!”
“Jennifer was awesome, she took amazing care of my 2 cats while I was away. She responded to messages super rapidly and sent photos of my cats with each visit. She was even kind enough to offer to water my plants while I was gone. I would absolutely hire her again!”
“Second time using Rebekah for my little fur ball. Quite the upstanding individual and was able to accommodate on relatively short notice. Always goes above and beyond anything I ask for. Someone I can genuinely trust to watch over him and the house while out of town.”
“Amy Rae is very kind and patient with a nervous “cat mom” (me). She took very good care of my senior kitty who needs a little extra to feel safe. I will continue to book any her any time we need a sitter.”
About: Hey there! I'm Tara Marksberry, and I absolutely adore animals! With 15 years of experience in pet sitting, veterinary offices, shelters, and boarding facilities, I've had the joy of working closely with furry friends of all kinds. I'm certified in pet CPR and first aid, and I pride myself on being dedicated, punctual, and loving in all aspects of pet care. Your furry companions deserve nothing but the best, and I'm here to ensure they receive just that. Thanks for your time, and have a wonderful day! I work full time from 8:00am to 5:00pm on the east side of Albuquerque. I am completely comfortable staying in your home and will generally remain there unless I’m running to the store or heading to grab something for dinner. Depending on the proximity of your home to my employer I may be able to conduct afternoon drop in visits. Early morning feeding or medication schedules are no problem! While at your home your pets safety is my first priority. I will never leave your pet unattended in the yard and make a habit of checking gates and fences while we’re outside. I will never open the front door in a manner that could allow a pet to escape and will not invite any unauthorized guests or my personal pets into your home. I like to provide picture updates to you throughout the stay so you can rest easy knowing your pets are happy and healthy. I do prefer to have written care instructions to reference so I make sure I’m taking the best possible care of your pets.
About: Give your pets the compassionate care they deserve when you're away! My 15 years of hands-on pet-sitting experience, combined with over a decade of personal pet ownership, means your furry family members will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a special affinity for senior pets, understanding their unique routines and comforts, thanks to my experience with my older cat. Let me provide the peace of mind you need, knowing your pets are happy, safe, and loved in my care. Currently going to school so I have plenty of time to check on your furr babies throughout the day. I am free early in the morning and evening. Rest assured, your cats and dogs will be in experienced and playful hands! My own two sweet indoor cats thrive with plenty of toys and two large scratchers, so I understand the importance of keeping indoor felines happy and entertained. I absolutely adore playing with my own cats and dogs, and I'll bring that same genuine love and active engagement to your pets, making sure they feel secure and well-cared for in their own environment.
“We are so lucky to have Sonya watch our two cats while we were away! After our last pet sitter moved out of state, we were nervous to find someone new - all nerves were gone after our meet and greet. Sonya has a very relaxing, calm personality. Pets can feel that and she was able to feed treats right to our one boy who is scared of anyone/anything new. Will definitely book again with Sonya!”
“Rachel is sweet and so kind to the pets. I felt very comfortable going out of town knowing she would come check in on my cats. Excellent first experience with the app and Rachel’s services.”
About: I love all animals and have extensive experience with cats and dogs, from personally owning them myself to volunteering with local shelters. I have done it all. I am pretty flexible. My daily routine already includes taking care of my 5 rescue cats, which includes feeding them and cleaning their litter areas. I like to make sure I make the pets feel at ease however I can. I know this experience can be anxiety-inducing, and I am patient with all kinds of personalities.
“Alexa always takes good care of my hypothyroid cat, Amelia. The cat enjoys all the attention she gets. Alexa is very conscientious, responsible, reliable and trustworthy in addition to being friendly and kind.”
“Tommie took good care of my kitten while I was away. Kept me up to date on her visits and how my cat was doing. Gave her extra toys to play with and made sure she was well taken care of.”
About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats over the course of quite a few years. I truly enjoy doing so. I love getting to see their different personalities and giving them that extra love while their people are away. I had my own dog as well for a few years. Fun fact: we shared the same birthday too! He was really my best friend. At the current moment my availability is fairly open throughout the week and anytime. I am open to mostly any hours currently. Book with me! I will make sure they are taken on walks, given some extra love, feed them, and play with them. They will be well taken care of with me.
About: I have extensive puppy and rescue training experience, and understand the struggles that come with having a high-maintenance dog, whether that is working on behavioral issues, fear of strangers, reactivity, or medical conditions. I have a soft spot for new rescues still learning their manners, as well as high-energy breeds. I’m happy to accommodate all of your pet’s needs! I am available for pet/house sitting and walks on weekends and throughout the work week! I have a flexible schedule so I can accommodate most needs. I will make sure to uphold all rules you have for your pets in your home and follow whatever routine is needed to ensure their comfort and a smooth transition when you get home! I’m happy to help out with any bathing/grooming needs that arise during our time together, as well as any training upkeep.
About: Growing up with pets instilled a love for all animals. I adopted my first cat 21 years ago and loved her-she was family. She inspired me to adopt even more family members, four dogs at once long ago. We now have a multi cat and dog house and would love to help take care of your family fur-babies! I currently work full-time but am available from Friday-Sunday for dog walking, home visits and overnight boarding in our home. We have a loving family with two children who love to dote on all animals. We have a large fenced yard with two playful dogs. We also have two indoor only cats. Our pets always have plenty of water, shade if outside and regular eating schedules.

Katelynn H.
“Katelynn is a dear friend, and over the years I've seen Kate take care of the wellbeing her own pets, as well as various animals that have come into her care via a registered local foster care program, or seeking out animals that need care. Kate prioritises the life, and wellbeing of the animals in her life, including those that she fosters. Sometimes I would even forget that they were foster pets due to how relaxed the animals were. Kate provides excellent care such as cooking home made meals, and snacks in batches, she's researched animal food heavily, because she simply cares about the animals in her life receiving proper nutrition. In terms of animal enrichment, Kate has made sure that the animals have proper enrichment via toys or activities. She frequently gives her dog, Chise, time outside to play, and socialise with other animals and people. When it comes to socialising, and animal behaviours, Kate actively teaches/encourages good behaviour, and also discourages bad behaviour. If an animal in her care”
