Dog Walking in Quintessance, Albuquerque

“On time, took my pooch for a good long walk, very sweet, great communication.”

Autumn K.

About: I’ve taken care of friends, family and neighbors dogs since I was 11. I love all dogs of all ages and have 2 large dogs of my own. I’m currently finishing up my masters degree and won’t be working all summer so I’ll have lots of availability for walks and drop ins as needed. I have two very friendly dogs but have dog gates and crates space is ever needed or for when I may have to leave home.

“Candace is great to work with. I reached out for dog walking my two rescues. They have some quirks and she manages them well. I’m happy she’s available when I need her. I will use her service again.”

About: For the past 12 years I've worked as a full time dog walker and pet sitter. Before that I worked as a Vet Assistant for which I went to school for. I was trained on handling pets in stressful situations, prepping and assisting in surgeries, administering medications and injections. I'm available for dog walking and pet sitting Monday through Sunday. I have very open availability and can work with the owners to figure out a schedule that works best for them. I service all of Albuquerque. I do not provide services for Placitas, East Mountains or Rio Rancho, I can provide pet sitting in my home. I can do pet sitting in your home and can go by as often as needed for as long as needed. I do not take my clients dogs to dog parks. I also never allow them off leash nor do I use retractable leashes. I can provide my own leash if necessary.

“Tabatha took great care of our pup - excellent communication, as well. When Franky needs a walk or a sitter, we hope Tabatha will be available!”

“Patricia is the best! She is so sweet and caring for our girl, Penny, and is willing to adapt and shift her schedule to help us with all of our last-minute work schedule changes. She is a life saver in helping us care for Penny!”

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.

“She walked my dog Sophie for more than a year - AMAZING!!!!! I would have been so lost without her. Dependable and loving to my Sophie. Couldn’t recommend her more 😊”

About: Growing up around dogs of all breeds has taught me about their unique personalities, preferences, and safety. I believe every animal deserves love and pampering—whether they’re couch potatoes or full of energy, I adapt quickly! Comfortable with both small and large dogs, I’ve seen it all—so nothing fazes me. As a big advocate for exercise, I’ll make sure active pups get plenty of walks. And don’t worry—your pet will get all the love and care they deserve. I’ve got plenty to give! I currently have an open schedule as I am returning to school come the fall semester. Once that begins, I will still be very open as most of my classes are online. I stick to their routine, dietary needs, and favorite activities (walks, playtime, or cuddles!). Safety and love come first, and I always keep owners updated. Dogs enjoy structured outings, while cats get play or space, depending on their mood. I adapt to each pet’s unique personality to keep them happy and comfortable!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have spent years caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I also have some light training experience. I’m a night owl but can be up early too, so I’m happy to take on late night or early morning pet care as needed. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of care needs. I’m calm, confident, and attentive with animals, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I'm a mature, patient, and responsible woman with an enthusiastic love for animals. I would be honored if you you'd allow me to put my years of responsibility and experience to use with your fur family! I have a very flexible schedule and a huge heart. Pets have given me so much for so little in exchange. I have all the time and energy for the doggos that need it! I have a two-story townhouse with a fenced-in yard. We have a dog run in our gated community and several parks close by for sniffing exploration.

“I’ve been working with Erich for the past week, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! He has been a huge help in improving my dog Cosmo's behavior on walks. Erich has gone above and beyond in not only walking Cosmo but also helping with little training moments that have already made a noticeable difference. He’s incredibly communicative and always keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. It’s clear he genuinely cares about Cosmo’s well-being. I’ve loved working with him and will definitely continue scheduling with Erich moving forward!”

About: I have always had dogs in my life! I’ve taken care of large dogs of various breeds as well as small pups. I enjoy the different personalities that each dog has and would love to take care of yours! We have a 4 year old Lab that would love to have another dog to play with and keep her company! I am working from home and available everyday unless out of town, my schedule is very flexible! We would love to host your fur baby as one of our own! We have a fenced in back yard and turf for the dogs to run and play! Our pups are pretty spoiled and have free roam of the house. We allow them to sleep in the bed but also have many dog beds throughout the house and will follow whatever routine or rules you set to continue your pups routine.

“Coda absolutely adores Jennifer. I saw it first hand when I was home due to an illness and she came to walk Coda when I am usually in class. It was heartwarming to see.”

“Delena is great with Koda and Colson. They had an instant connection. She puts on their leash and is off on their walk. They already know that she is there to take them out. Will continue to work with her.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for the past three years, including overnight stays and daily check-ins. I’ve cared for a variety of pets such as cats, dogs, and even guinea pigs! I’ve also trained multiple dogs of my own and attended formal training classes, so I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and special needs. I’m patient, attentive, and love building trust with every pet I care for. Hi! I’m a student-athlete at the University of New Mexico. I play hockey, I’m a runner, and I’m a lifelong animal lover. I’ve cared for cats and dogs my whole life and love getting to know each pet’s personality. I’m reliable, active, and always happy to help keep your pets happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly lab to keep your dog company. Wherever your pet is, I will make absolutely sure that they are comfortable and are getting the love and other things they need.

“Courtney is awesome! Highly recommended for walks as she is friendly, courteous, and punctual. I can definitely tell that Scrappy Doo is ecstatic after a walk around the neighborhood with Courtney. He is definitely well taken care of in her presence.”

About: I've dog-sat since I was in high school and I absolutely love all animals! My entire life I have been surrounded by dogs. Growing up I wanted to pursue a career working with animals, even going so far to volunteer at an animal shelter during the summer. I am currently working on a biomedical engineering degree but still have a passion and love working with animals of all shapes and sizes! I love meeting animals and discovering their unique personalities and individual needs! I am happy and willing to work to gain your pet's trust I'm currently pursuing an engineering degree at Colorado State but I'm home in Albuquerque working part time for the summer. I have a very open availability when I'm in town so I'd love to know your pets schedule and how I can accommodate that! I will give your pets SO MUCH love!! I absolutely love animals and whether that means playing with them in the yard for an hour or cuddling on the couch, I want to love your pet the best I can.

“Sharon is Fabulous! She is friendly, communicative, reliable and knowledgeable. We are so grateful to have her when we need her. She took great care of our fur baby. She is our go to.”

“Valerie was a great sitter for my dog and it was easy leaving knowing he was in good hands! I received plenty of messages and pictures after walks so I knew what they were up to every day. I can't recommend Valerie highly enough!”
