About: As a life long pet owner, I have had great report with animals of all sizes. I have trained and enjoyed a kennel free environment. All my dogs have had happy lives and great disposition with kids and other animals. I will provide a safe and loving home for your dog where they will receive a ton of love and petting. I love that my dog will follow me around and look for any moment to get petting and affection; even will force my bathroom door open, knowing I am a captive audience. I look forward to doing the same for your pooch. I have walked dogs both short and long distances. Thank you for your consideration and look forward to meeting your family member (dog).
About: Ive been watching my family’s and friends animals for years now. With the responsibility of feeding them, giving them water, and playing with them when needed.

I always make sure I take care of the animals according to the owners instructions, or to take care of their house as they ask.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for animals. I’m highly reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to following each pet’s unique routine. As a student with a flexible schedule, I can offer extra attention, consistent communication, and a safe, fenced home where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Even though I’m a student, I’m very organized, and I treat pet-care commitments like appointments I can’t miss. I use a planner to make sure feeding, walking, and check-ins are scheduled and consistent. My weekly routine leaves space for morning and afternoon visits, and I’m usually available on weekends as well. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and structured environment. In my home, I have a fenced yard in a quiet, safe neighborhood with plenty of grass for play and walks. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely—providing consistent feeding, fresh water, playtime, and any specific instructions to make sure their pet feels secure and well-cared for.

I can do housesits from San Felipe to any where near by Jemez, Santa Ana, Bernalillo, Rio Rancho, Santa Fe, Albuquerque.

About: I have been a lifelong pet owner, with pets of all varieties. My current pets include an orange kitty and a couple of other pets. I'm open to regular dog-sitting or occasional walks. It gives me an excuse to get outside, and your pupper can get some nice sniffs and a good walk in. My schedule is fairly flexible most weeks. I currently work from home, but I'm often called out into the field to work. During times I'm unavailable, my partner is available to fill in. I would prefer to keep animals in their own home. Having their own humans gone is already stressful enough, and being in a totally new space without their people for support can be scary! My cat is somewhat tolerant of calm dogs, and I can accommodate them in my home on a short-term basis.
