“Kimberly took excellent care of my 4 fur babies. They all seem healthy and happy. I think they miss the loves, treats, and playing that Kimberly gave twice a day. Above and beyond service provided, even brought in packages and cleaned litter boxes. I will definitely rebook for our next vacation.”


“My dog Sui was well cared for and happy to see Robert when he returned my apartment key promptly as scheduled. Thank you Robert and Holly for caring for Sui last minute when I was invited out of town for New Year’s Eve. I would rebook/recommend them for people with larger dogs as they were very comfortable handling my hyper German Shepherd mix dog Sui (90 lbs on a leash).”


“Kayla was amazing, never had a single worry, she sent pics and kept us updated which was wonderful. I would highly recommended using her for any pet needs.”


About: I've been a pet caretaker for most of my 45 years, but I only put 25 in the years experience because those adult years of my life have been most dedicated to pet care. I am a serial adopter of rescue animals, so I'm well versed in pet conditions that need special care. I don't crate our animals and I love them all unconditionally. If you have a pet that needs special attention or even a modicum of training, I'd be happy to help you take care of them. I'm a military veteran and author working from home. I spend my entire day spoiling my pets (I have both cats and dogs, and they get along well enough). I walk the dogs daily, sometimes more than once. The dogs get brushed regularly and the cats get brushed if they make an appearance or we can catch them. As mentioned earlier, I do not crate our pets. I prefer to let them roam, but I occasionally do block off certain areas of the house to prevent naughty behavior. The pets are always rewarded for good behavior with snacks.

“Laura was a blessing to have watching over my two cats while I was out of town. I will definitely be booking with her again. Absolute professional.”


“Thank you Seneca! I appreciate you coming over to the house and giving Dante his medicine. I love the report you provide on his activity and pictures. You are a caring and loving dog mom!!”


“Tabatha is the best. She’s a very caring, thoughtful caregiver. Super reliable and responsive with plenty of communication and photos. She even kept an eye on the plants. Will definitely be rebooking in the future if she’s available. Thank you so much Tabatha!”


“Ella is absolutely wonderful with my little guy!! Thank you so, so much for taking such great care of Gibson.”


About: I'll take your dog out for some fun and enriching exercise while peacefully training them to calmly follow along at your side with no pulling, whining, or reacting! I am a dog trainer, field biologist, and academic coach driven to lead people towards a mutually fulfilling life with their dogs, and to share my knowledge and wonder of nature to promote stewardship and love for all sentient beings. I have cared for family pets (cats, dogs, fish, rodents, rabbits, etc) throughout my life, and I have performed extensive animal husbandry during my PhD in Animal Behavior and Ecology (I have even trained and rehabbed hummingbirds!). I began formally dog walking and training in January 2025 and have helped each of my clients transform their relationships with their dogs by learning how to efficiently and peacefully communicate. I hope to: 1) refresh your dog's basic obedience and floppy leash walking skills; 2) help you be aware of your dog's body language, and your own habits; and 3) empower you to become the leader your dog needs! I am happy to offer free nail checks and trimming! 1% of all proceeds will go to Blackhat Humane Society, a Navajo Nation rescue/ foster organization where I adopted my service dog Louie from! I am currently based in Albuquerque, and I have a very flexible work and life schedule, so I can likely accommodate requests for walks at any time and frequency! I have an extensive experience house and pet (and plant!) sitting for family and friends, and I always treat clients' dogs and homes with utmost respect. I am currently unable to host pets in my home.


“This was my first time using Rover & it could not have gone any better! Kristen is an incredibly easy going and reliable person for any of your pet needs. This was the longest I was away from my cat, so having Kristen provide the checkins really put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my trip. I will definitely be requesting her services in the future if needed!”



“Jana did drop-ins for us to check on our cat. We are new to ABQ and were anxious about finding someone we could trust. She was awesome and we will be rebooking when we need someone again!”


“Patrick is so amazing. I am very grateful for his help with taking care of my pup. He is so flexible and accommodating with scheduling. My dog absolutely loves him.”


“Savannah did a wonderful job watching my cats this past weekend. She was willing to come to the house for a meet and greet the weekend prior and checked in with a Rover card and sweet photos of the cats during her drop-in. Would definitely recommend!”


“Max did an amazing job. He met me the day before to receive instructions and meet Whiskey and Willow. He was thoughtful and asked smart questions. For the stop-ins, he came at consistent times each day and sent photos. He was reliable and trustworthy and I’d hire him again”


About: I love animals and have loved them my entire life. I believe that animals can touch the parts of our hearts that no human can. I love walking dogs and enjoy taking them out to explore the great outdoors. Every pet has a personality that is uniquely their own and discovering each and every one is a joy. I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep your pet healthy and happy until you return. Here's a link of an example of a typical walk. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/Vzk8zN8pcX0 My availability is fairly open so that I will be able to give quality care to your pet. I do have experience walking dogs for family members (four at a time) and I love how excited they get when they find out they're going for a walk.


“Patricia was kind, sweet and loving to our Shelby. She is great with dogs and it was a pleasure to meet her and have her take care of Shelby. Thank you so much!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and genuine love for animals of all sizes. I’m comfortable caring for both big dogs and cats, and I’ve had pets of various breeds and sizes throughout my life. Currently, I have three pets of my own, so I understand the attention and care they need on a daily basis. I also offer a very flexible schedule and can easily accommodate what works best for the client. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, cuddles, or patience, I’m here to provide reliable and loving care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I have three pets of my own, so caring for animals is already part of my daily life. I work part-time with short shifts, and also attend UNM, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide reliable care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking to their usual routine—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medications. I treat each home with respect and always make sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I keep clients updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.

Erich E.
“Erich is an excellent dog trainer. I have watched the transformation of his own pup (Louie) go from undisciplined, bad mannered, over excited, and easily frightened to almost service dog level in just a few months. Erich is also great with my dog (Kaya), and has taught me how to correct a few bad habits we have, which cleared up fairly quickly. I know Erich loves spending time with both his own and other peoples four-legged friends, whether it’s walking, training, playing, or just relaxing. I definitely recommend him.”

Avonelle L.
“My mother has 6 dogs and is in her seventies. Avonelle was very caring and helpful and walked the dogs just about every morning and was able to give my mother a break. The dogs loved every minute especially Lila and her son Moses. Moses would literally playfully try to take the leash out of her hand, he was so excited! Afterwards the dogs would be tired, but happy. I would highly recommend her to any pet parents.”
