Dog Walking in Painted Sky, Albuquerque, NM

About: I am a veterinary assistant that has been taking car of pet for at least 9 years. I started pet sitting for my family and neighbors pet. Then I whent to the pound walking and helped in the clinic. Then I became a veterinary assistant to help more animals. I am currently working full time 10 hour shifts with 3 days off a week. So I have 3 days to focus all my time with your pets. I have a full fenced yard. I have 1 lovely dog that is friendly and get along with other dogs. I also have a crate if you would like me to use that.

About: From loving my own corgi, to working at a doggy daycare and training sled dogs in Alaska, I have diverse experiences with animals and I’d love to share my love with your pets too! I work part time with a fairly flexible schedule so I’d love to fill my extra time with taking care of animals and more long walks!! I take my own dog on 2-3 walks per day and she would love to join your pets if they’re friendly! I am happy to accommodate any special needs for your pets.

I will be able to spend the night or come over multiple times a day as necessary. I'm finally in a house, so I will be providing boarding and daycare soon! I love playing with cats and dogs, so I'll be up for however much activity they desire! I'll bring my sneakers! Very available and flexible on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and weekends! I can do walks and drop-ins on those days and I can do overnights any night! I leave your pets and your house in the same or better condition than when I started. I love meeting new furry friends and people are okay, too!

About: I have been caring for animals since my childhood and have several of my own. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, as well as with responsibilities such as administering medication, walks, special diets, etc. I work and go to school part time. I have the most freedom on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but can also periodically check on your pet on the other days of the week. I can do overnights as well. I will work with your pets needs whether that is specific feeding times, a walking schedule, or other routines that you and your pet typically do.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. From dogs and cats to horses, birds, fish, and even ferrets, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my days with so many wonderful animals over the years. Each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and companionship, and I carry that experience with me into every pet I care for. Right now, I share my home with a lively crew—a sweet senior Husky hybrid who’s 15 years old, a playful 7-month-old Cattle Dog, two affectionate cats (one a sprightly senior of 14 years), and a handful of fish who bring calm and beauty to my space. Because of them, I have firsthand experience with pets at every stage of life. I understand the patience and special attention seniors need, as well as the energy and safe guidance puppies and kittens require as they grow. My passion for animals has inspired me to pursue a career as a Veterinary Technician, but no matter the path, one thing is certain: caring for animals will always be at the heart of what I do. I love spending time outdoors with pets, going on walks, playing their favorite games, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet snuggles and gentle care, I’ll treat them like one of my own. When your furry (or feathered, or finned!) family members are with me, you can feel confident that they’ll be cared for with warmth, patience, and lots of love. I’m available bright and early in the mornings all the way through the evening for drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins. My regular availability is from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM every day of the week, weekends included. I understand that every pet and family has different routines, so I’m happy to be flexible and work around the times that suit you best. I’m also available most weekends for house sitting, giving you peace of mind that your pets (and home) are well cared for while you’re away. If there’s ever a time I won’t be available, I’ll always update my schedule in advance so you’ll never be left guessing. My goal is to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets! I am able to travel throughout the county and city, and I’m comfortable caring for pets in a wide variety of environments, including apartments, houses, farm properties, sidewalks, parks, and outdoor settings. No matter the location, I make it a priority to ensure pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I follow all owner instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, or special accommodations. Maintaining consistency is important, and I will make sure your pets’ routines are carried out to your exact standards. While house sitting, I provide ongoing attention and companionship throughout the day, and during walks or check-ins, your pets will always have my full, undivided focus. I ensure that pets have access to fresh water, proper meals, and any other care items they may need. I am also fully comfortable working in all types of weather and terrain, so your pets’ care will never be disrupted by outside conditions.

“Alyssa does a great job with my Bailey girl. She takes multiple pictures, let's me know how Baikey was from start to finish, if there is anything I should check when I get home. And most importantly Bailey loves when she comes over.”

“Kristle did an awesome job checking on and walking both my dogs together. Both of them are strong and my younger dog can be a challenge. She communicates well and sent me pictures. She went above and beyond what I asked. I will certainly be asking her to walk my dogs in the future! ”

About: I've grown up with both cats and dogs and learned to care for them. I have a cat of my own and have always helped my children care for their doggos. They deserve nothing but the best. I work M-F, 8am-5pm. I am available in the evenings and weekends. I can be available for last minute if something comes up at work. I live in an apartment. I can check in on your pet when needed, feed dinner, take them for their walks or just be there for company.

About: I go by Seven, I was born on a farm, I’ve worked with animals of the farm variety and of course, cats, dogs, and many more sense I was young. Volunteered at animal shelter, vets office, and farm animal facilities. I’m currently a UNM student so all my babies are at home but I plan to have my ESA Rosy join me soon, so I don’t see animals often outside of meeting fellow students pets. I have spent most of my years growing up with and around animals and have a lot of love and experience with them! I have classes T/Th 1-5pm and Fri-8am-noon, but other than that I’m free for any kind of help! I make sure to ask what rules or regulations have to be followed for both pet, home, and routine. I never wanna stress a pet out or an owner so I love to send photos and updates the whole time I’m there as well as make sure everyone is comfortable and happy with the job and care I give.

About: I have always grown up around all types of animals. I am capable of giving medication, going on walks, playing, bathing, feeding and help in training in basic skills such as sitting, shanking hands,etc. Currently working part time working with service animals as a kennel tech soon to be starting dog training internship. As of right now, my hours are completely open and flexible. If I do have to go anywhere I always try to make it pet friendly so I may bring a companion along so they do not feel abandoned. However, if I am not able to bring a pet along I try to make the trip as quick as possible. There is usually always someone at home with the pets, If they ever have to be alone it is only for about an hour and a half for a doctors/ Therapy appointment. I have a loving 3 bedroom home with more then enough space to house your pet. The home offers a large back yard for the dogs to run and play. There are several dog parks and parks with in walking distance.

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs since I 10. Anytime they went out of town, they called me to make sure to feed them or bring them over to my house while their gone. I work part time as server and the rest of the time I work and go to school at home, leaving me with plenty of time to be your furry friends companion. I have a little dog park at my apartment, as well as plenty of space to walk the dogs around my building. I also offer to take care of your animals at your home if that’s what you prefer.

“Gabriella is incredibly patient and friendly, always taking the time to make sure my pup feels comfortable and happy. She goes above and beyond to provide plenty of exercise. My dog absolutely loves her walks and comes back so much more relaxed and content. Highly recommend Gabriella for anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog walker/pet sitter! 😊”
