House Sitting in Portales

“Lyric did a great job and we appreciate her taking care of our two cats and maverick while we were gone. We would use again!”

“What more can I say but, thank you. She was amazing and kept us updated on our pups status each day and even sent pictures to ease our worrying minds. Definitely will be using her again.”

“Erika was absolutely wonderful. Extremely flexible and accommodating. Knew exactly what she was doing when it came to being with to Large dogs. And so friendly! Highly recommend, I know we will be using her services again.”

About: I've been dog sitting and walking since middle school and never stopped. Then became a dog groomer in Virginia when I turned age 19. Since then, I've serviced over thousands of dogs through varying ages and health conditions, from fresh 2 week old newborn puppies to 18yr old diabetic senior with arthritis and heart murmur. After going through every age, breed, weight, personality, health conditions, and different varying types of dogs, there's none that will intimidate me. I've also worked at a Doggy day care through the pandemic, providing grooming and day care for the first responders. We got covid-19 disinfection and safety certified for operating through that time, sanitizing and disinfecting everything anyone touched after each appointment. ●Years of hands on experience with thousands of dogs as a groomer since age 19 ●Mother to a spoiled 12yr old senior dog ●Dog sitting and walking since middle school ●Medication administration accepted (oral or needle) ●Doggy daycare experience ●Doggy CPR certified ●Sanitation safety knowledge ●Behavior pattern recognition As a wife to a night worker and mother to a 12yr old senior dog, my schedule is flexible throughout the day, able to dedicate the time needed to make sure your kid (dog/cat) is ok as much as mine is. My princess has her own bed but decides to join her parents sometimes. But that's us. I shall follow their routines in their designated area unless instructed otherwise for different occasions.

“I have grown up with Matthew and seen his love and care of animals. He has taken many responsibilities with our own dogs and even ones that were injured strays. He would be a great caretaker of your beloved pets.”

“I highly recommend Kateah as a pet caregiver! She took excellent care of Samantha, providing her with lots of love and attention. Kateah is responsible, reliable, and truly cares about the pets she watches. Samantha was in great hands, and I would trust her again without hesitation.”

About: I've been needing animals in my life and a way to fill that void while still a college student. I've also been able to take care of animals since my childhood and understand what they need when they need it. Whenever I get to have breaks within my busy schedule, I can always come and check in on the pets and make sure they are doing okay. Let the animals do their thing while keeping a watchful eye on them as much as possible. Checking their food and water every so often to make sure they have that in stock always, unless there are scheduled feedings.

“Preslie is one of the most caring animal people i have ever met. She truly goes above and beyond for the needs and wants of every animal she comes into contact with. I have personally seen her do whatever means necessary to ensure the wellbeing of the animals she comes into contact with. From horses to cats, and everything in-between. She is your trusted animal caretaker.”

“Hailey has been taking car of animals since she was younger. She has two dogs of her own. She always shows upnon time and has the best playdates with animals, especually dogs.”

“Nancy, I would recommend Traci for any animal watching, sitting, or other animal needs! She is 100% loving and reliable! She has been a God send for me and my animals and I trust her to care for them as I would, like my own children. She is reliable, safe, knowledgeable about multiple animals, and loving.”

About: I grew up with different types of dogs in my home since I was 2. I have 2 dogs of my own currently. I currently have a dog named Henry who is 1 year old and my mom's dog Bleu who is 3 years old. I lost my senior dog, Max about a year ago due to old age of 14 years. Each dog I have ever owned I have had for years so I have experience in senior care.. When I have family members going out of town, they ask me to watch their dogs, specifically my grandparents. I am available partially mostly. I will run and play with the dogs and take them on walks as I am a former college student-athlete, so I want to keep the dogs energized. I do love taking dogs to the dog park just so they can socialize and run around. I also like to treat dogs with a Pupcup so we can both enjoy Starbucks together after a good day at the park. I'm am mostly free during the week days but not weekends. I currently am just finishing up my Master's degree online and also coaching at the University so I have plenty of free time to play with your loved ones! I can ensure your dog gets at least an hour of playtime and is receiving food and water 24/7. If your dog has special needs I will provide that.

“Ronda is reliable, trustworthy, honest and hardworking. She has great organizational skills and is such a loving dog mommy to her dog, Gemini. She’s a sweet dog who goes on walks every night and gets homemade treats for snacks. She takes a lot of thought in caring for her each day. She ensures she has all her shots updated and sees the veterinarian annually and as needed. I would trust my dog in her care anytime, she is an awesome human and she will love your fur babies and also manage them well. Perfect for this position. Hope G.”
