Dog Walkers in Pecos, NM

About: I've been a pet owner all my life (dogs and cats!) and have been pet sitting for a few years now. I also spent a summer when I was in college pet sitting for a couple who was traveling. My own pets have always been part of my family and I know how important their physical and mental health is. I have experience with older dogs and know that they may need a little extra consideration and attention. I will treat your pets and your home with the care and respect I would want someone to treat my own. I am available to stay at your house and be with your pet so they are almost never alone. Outside of short trips for groceries or to do other dog walks or check-ins I can be with your pet most of the day or for the full day. I'm a non-smoker and I will not invite anyone else over to your house. I’m happy to walk your dog if they don’t pull strongly and constantly on the leash - I'm good with mild to moderate constant pulling or intermittent strong pulling. Your privacy and security are of the utmost importance to me. I will treat your home and your pet with the care and respect that I would want someone to treat mine. It is a privilege to be allowed into someone's residence to watch over both their home and their pet and I take this responsibility seriously. I will only feed your pet what you have asked me to, no human food or table scraps. Pets can behave differently when their people are gone so I err on the side of caution and am careful about keeping them on leash and being aware when opening doors that they don’t bolt out. On walks I stay alert to traffic, other dogs, and wildlife.

“I booked Amrit for a couple of dog walks when I was ill and couldn’t take my dog out. My dog doesn’t always like strangers but he immediately loved her. Very trustworthy. Will book her again. Thank you, Amrit!!”

“Brittany is INCREDIBLE. She is made to be working with animals! I feel blessed to be able to leave my pup in her care when I’m at work. She’s professional, provides great updates (with photos), and is an all around wonderful human. I am so lucky to have found Brittany to care for my puppy.”

About: We’re a husband-and-wife dynamic duo with a lifelong love for animals! Between the two of us, we’ve cared for a wide range of pets — from dogs, cats, chickens, horses, cows, rabbits, and ducks to small pets like rats and hamsters. I grew up on a ranch, where my father taught me to love and care for animals of all kinds. My husband grew up surrounded by dogs and small animals, developing his own deep bond with pets. Today, we share our home with three cats and four dogs, and we’re passionate about treating every animal we care for like a member of the family. We’re a husband-and-wife team who both work full time, but we have plenty of availability in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends. We love starting and ending our days with playtime, walks, and quality care for the pets we look after. Your pets will always get lots of attention, love, and reliable care built into our daily routine. We are current with all of the safety and care procedures for cats and dogs. It is our goal to not only ensure safety and health, but to help your animal feel comfortable and loved.

“Austin was calm and confident. My dog Mika reacted well to him and they had a good time on his walk. I will use Austin again!”

About: Since I was a child I have taken care of neighbors dogs and cats, sometimes even birds! I love all animals as if they were my own. I have a dog of my own and I understand the care required not only for the pet but also to give the owner peace of mind in the process. You're in great hands! Pet picks will be included in all visits! I am currently self-employed and looking to fill some extra time in my schedule doing something I enjoy. I'm flexible with my availability both morning, daytime and evening! I will gladly come to your home and attend to any needs your pets may have. Including play, cuddles or just quality time so they aren't alone.

“Alicia took a long walk with Maxwell and she made sure all his needs were met. She’s a great pet walker and she keeps us updated on the Rover app.”

About: I’ve cared for small and medium dogs since I was 14. I’ve loved taking care of animals ever since I was a little girl. With my parents being animal lovers I’ve encountered many animals throughout my life. As of right now I have 2 Dogs, 2 Cats, and 3 Horses! I provide loving attention, walks, feeding, and playtime to keep them happy and healthy. I am calm, reliable, and respectful to you and your home. Your pets will feel safe and well cared for while you’re away.💕 I work part-time in Los Alamos, but only two days a week that I choose. I am pretty available anytime the pet owner needs me. In highschool, I dogsat on the weekends but now that I am out of highschool I’ve been doing it consistently. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable whether I’m at their home or mine. I stick to their usual routine provided by the pet owner. Feeding, walks, playtime, so they don’t get stressed. I keep their space clean and give them lots of attention and love. I’m calm and patient, so pets feel relaxed in their home.

“Abby went above and beyond with our pup, communication was great throughout the entire process, we look forward to having you look after Teo in the future! Thanks for everything.”

About: I have been caring for animals my whole life and I have also spent time volunteering at animal shelters, walking and playing with the animals. I am comfortable around dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. Family friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed and stay with their pets when they are away or during their busy schedules. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies. I love to get outside and adventure, so I can take your pup/s on local trails like Dale Balls or Atalaya. I'm currently working part-time so I have a flexible and fairly available schedule. Mornings and evenings are always free for me, and the optimal time for walks or adventures. Depending on the day, I can also provide afternoon care and have the flexibility to work with your pets needs. Weekends are also usually free for me and I can provide full-day care or longer outdoor adventures like hikes! I am respectful of boundaries and understand that some pets might be hesitant towards a new person and might need longer to get comfortable. Getting a clear understanding of what comforts and routine the pet has (favorite toy, sleeping spot, treat after play time, etc.) will help me maintain that routine and make sure the pet is as comfortable as they can be. I also have experience with senior dogs who prefer to stay closer to home and can be patient and attentive to their needs. I pay close attention to the behaviors of the pet and communicate with owners if there are any changes to that behavior. It's important to meet the pet once or twice before caring for them to make sure a connection has been established and that the pet is comfortable in my presence.

About: When I was 7, I helped train my cousins' dog, and from that moment on, I’ve been passionate about working with animals. I've cared for my family dog for the past 16 years, gaining experience with everything from daily walks to gentle training. Over the years, I’ve helped countless friends and relatives with their dogs, whether it’s house-sitting, basic obedience, or just giving them lots of affection. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the chance to spend more time around pups, giving them the love, snuggles, and care they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work a flexible schedule, which means I can offer consistent attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning snuggles, midday strolls, or evening check-ins, I make sure your pet feels loved and cared for as part of my daily rhythm. When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and routine. I respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and take time to build trust with your pet so they feel safe and relaxed. I’m attentive to their body language, stick to feeding and potty schedules, and double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure they’re secure and happy at all times.

About: What can I say, I love dogs!!! Iv'e been around dogs my whole life, beginning with my Husky that loved chaperoning me around our backyard when I was a baby. I'm very grateful to have the experience with a dog since youth! I was raised around other animals too, bunnies, mice, and hamsters. Lol but I bond especially well with dogs. I hope to make new memories with your pet if you choose me! I am flexible and willing to work around your dogs schedule and my own. We can work something out to meet both our needs of course. I have plenty of time to care for your pet! I can be available overnights if needed if you are going away on a trip.

About: I grew up taking care of a big, sweet lab and spending time with my extended family’s large dogs. Since then I’ve had the privilege of bonding with the dogs of friends and past partners. I’ve been professionally dog sitting full-time for 2+ years, and off and on for 5. I follow the lead of the dog owner with commands and whether to have the dog(s) on leash or not. I’ve had many experiences of simple neighborhood walks, longer hikes in the wild, dog parks, car rides, giving medication, taking the dog to the vet when needed, and lots of playtime and cuddling. :) I love getting to know the unique personality of each dog I care for, and I do my best to make sure they have quality time and care while their person is away. I am a homebody + I am building an online business, so I am available to give steady presence to the pets, plants, and home I’m caring for. I value clear, direct communication, and I appreciate having detailed directions on how you would like me to care for your pet(s) and home. I’m very self sufficient and capable of dealing with unforeseen circumstances if they arise. I keep my space tidy and clean and will leave your home in as good or better shape than I found it. Please provide a clean and welcoming space for my arrival. I am careful to lock all doors/secure your home, bring in your mail and packages, and water your plants.

“Excellent service! Danielle communicates all details and is super friendly!”

“I really enjoyed meeting Rowan at your previous job at the daycare. It's wonderful to see her embark on her own journey. Bash was delighted to see her too. I truly appreciated her communication skills and the way she took care of Bash during one of his walks. I hope to collaborate with her in the future!”

About: I'll love your four-legged children as much as you do! Leave your pets in their own home with confidence while you're away, either on vacation or simply away long hours at work. Experienced, loving pet care and responsible care for your home as well. I have been a home-owner for 35 years, and have shared my home with dogs, cats, birds, fish and reptiles, and currently volunteer as a foster mom for felines with the Santa Fe Animal Shelter. I also have decades of experience riding and caring for horses. I offer quality service and competitive rates, with single or multiple visits per day, or overnight stays. I will feed and water pets, walk dogs, clean cat boxes, brush pets, muck stalls, clean hooves, and water plants. Special duties available as well, such as giving medicine, taking dogs to doggy day care, gathering eggs, etc. I also provide belly rubs, chin skritches and ear tickles at no extra charge! I'm located in Eldorado, but will work anywhere in Santa Fe.

About: Dogs, and all animals, have been an integral part of my life since I was born. I helped to raise 3 wonderful family dogs and one of my own - all whom sadly but lovingly are no longer with us. In MI during high school I started my dog and house sitting business all through word of mouth. That continued after college and has been something I love to do throughout the years. I have experience with training puppies as well as medication administration and support for elderly dogs. I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule to welcome the care of animals into my day. It’s great for all of us to get more walks and cuddles in! I will also listen to what the pet owner feels is best for their pet. We can walk around the neighborhood, go to the dog park, or spend time in the fenced in yard. I am always happy to send photos or messages with updates as needed.

About: I am a friendly neighborhood dog walker, available to care for your pets needs. Reliable, trustworthy, and a good communicator. I'm comfortable with cats as well. I currently work part time, and on my own schedule, so I am available to tailor my schedule to help better suit your pets' needs. I can come in a timely fashion to your home to feed, walk, and provide love and care for your animals. I have my own transportation and can take your animals to the vet in case of an emergency.
