Pet Sitting Rancho Sereno

“Jennifer was fantastic with our two cats and made them feel very comfortable while we were gone for roughly 5 days. One of our cats has pretty bad anxiety but she made them feel companionship and peace. Jennifer was flexible and made the best of some occasional circumstances outside of her control too, definitely would strongly recommend!!”

“Erin has been great with our kitties Zoey and Tango. She always shows up when she's supposed to and keeps us updated. The kitties really like her too! I would highly recommend her 😊”

About: Volunteered at a vet clinic & pet sat for friends and family & discovered the joy of comforting pets when they're feeling anxious and home sick. I am pursuing a master's in computer science at UNM, and my schedule can be flexible. I will be home for the most part, but if I ever need to step away it's only for a couple hours. My boyfriend and I work as a team in caring for our dogs, and we do the same for our clients. It's normal for your pet to feel homesick, so we do our best to make them feel like they are at home and give them the quality time and affection they are used to from their loved ones ❤️ Baxter is 9 yo pit mix & Chiqui is an 8 yo Pomeranian/chihuahu. We have a small fenced yard and a kennel that Baxter uses for whenever we have to leave the house to run errands. Our dogs sleep in their beds upstairs in our bedroom, and we set up your pet's bed next to us as well. We typically ask clients to bring their pet's bed or crate/kennel and a blanket or toy they like to cuddle with to remind them of home 🤍 If you could also pack their food, food bowl, and leash for their stay, that would be great! 🐾

“Sarab was amazing! So communicative and kind. She made our kitties so happy and loved. Thank you thank you!!”

About: Hello, my name is Leevi. Since I was young, I have always been the one taking care of the family pets. I love all animals, and taking care of them. I have leashed and behaviorally trained multiple dogs for friends and family, as well as served as the designated animal watcher for both cats and dogs for friends and family. I have also raised multiple jumping spiders and lizards. I care about the needs of all animals; seeing them happy makes me happy. I work full-time from 5:00 p.m. to midnight, with Wednesdays and Thursdays off. Despite my evening work schedule, I maintain an active lifestyle and enjoy staying productive throughout the day. As soon as I wake up, I am usually on the move, whether I am exercising, running errands, handling personal responsibilities, or spending time outdoors. I value making the most of my mornings and early afternoons before beginning my shift. I will care for your fur baby with the same patience, attention, and affection I have always given my own pets—as a valued member of the family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, and I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate care that helps them feel safe and comfortable while you are away. I have hands-on experience training and caring for several of my family’s dogs. My experience includes leash training, reinforcing positive behaviors, administering oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing regular walks and playtime. I am comfortable following specific care instructions and adapting to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and daily routine. I am also attentive to the ways dogs communicate their needs. Whether a dog is feeling stressed, hungry, excited, tired, overheated, or simply in need of reassurance, I recognize the importance of observing their body language and behavior closely. I prioritize safe walks, hydration, a calm environment, and plenty of positive interaction to ensure each dog receives the care and attention they deserve.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I have experience with both energetic dogs and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that means long walks, playtime, or a slower pace with extra attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing plenty of affection, supervision, fresh water, exercise, and updates while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer oral medications if needed, reinforce basic training routines, and accommodate any special instructions so your pet receives the care they’re used to at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and sitting while maintaining a reliable routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by treating every pet like my own. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, provide a clean environment, and make sure they receive attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel secure while you’re away.

About: In college I was a house and pet sitter. I have had pets since I was in elementary school and am now a senior. I currently have three dogs of my own. I’m emotionally intelligent and good to work with. I work a half day as an Occupational Therapist educator in Wednesdays and as an OT practitioner on Fridays. I would be available in the afternoons on these days. I will not take care of pets in my home but am happy to come to yours to care for, walk, pet and feed your fur babies.

About: I have had pets ever since I was 3 years old, I am now 20 and have lots of experience with taking care of them. I have also trained my dogs with the basics like, potty training, any tricks, simple house training etc. I am very experienced to take wonderful care of your fur babies and their needs. With my own pets I take care of them morning to night. I am home most of the time so I do spend time with them a lot but when I do leave my house I make sure they went outside before leaving and have plenty of water and food while I am gone. I always walk the dogs, follow any instructions that's given to me for the dogs care, eating habits, wash days, times to go out, and everyday I play with my own dogs keeping them active running around the yard and having plenty of toys. I also tidy up the house, sometimes with our fur babies the house can be a mess with toys all over and them shedding all the time so I can to provide that for you.

“I had a wonderful experience with Jennifer over the past five days. She was consistently on time for every check‑in, and the care she provided for Apollo was exceptional. She listened closely to my concerns and showed genuine compassion toward my dog. I highly recommend her and rate her 5 stars.”

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. Since I was 12, it’s been my responsibility to take care of our English Setter. This began with me helping to train him. My role was to reinforce the lessons taught at the PetSmart classes. I’ve regularly walked, bathed, and taken to the vet our dog as well. I love animals of all kinds and care a lot about giving them the loving attention they deserve. I currently work part time 6 days a week, with Sundays off. I work from home, and regularly have mornings and early afternoons completely available. I have more than enough time for several appointments just about every day of the week. At the moment I do not own any pets, as my landlord does not allow it. I am unable to provide any services that would require my home. But I’ve lived with and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, with great regularly since I was 12. I know what I’m doing when it comes to our furry companions. I’d love to provide walks, visits, and any other services I can.

About: I've been around dogs and cats all my life. I currently have two cats of my own and have had dogs in the past of all types and sizes. Boundaries are huge when it comes to caring for animals, whether enforcing mine or respecting theres, and I will respect the energy as it is. I love backyard play and playing fetch. I don't mind administering medication with clear instructions. I can take short walks with your furry family members no problem. I am available anytime on Saturday and Sunday and weeknights Monday–Friday. I hold an 8:30 am to 5:00 pm job and go to school part time at NMSU Global campus (online) and am willing to do homework as I pet sit, weaving school and care together if need be. I respect the animal's personality and personal boundaries as much as possible. For example, I have two cats with two different personalities. One loves pets and snuggles and the other keeps to herself and prefers that I speak to her instead of petting her to show affection. I have experience with overnight stays at the pet's family home and have no issues with keeping things respectful and tidy.

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 full time at a veterinary clinic. My work days are Thursday-Sunday 8:30am-5:30pm, and half days on Mondays. I can always check on pets during lunch breaks, and I am available for overnights. I will always work with your pets needs, whether that is a walking schedule, medications, or other routines that are essential for their well being.

“Melissa was so great with our dogs! She followed our instructions perfectly and sent lots of pictures at every visit. Her communication was excellent and I can tell the boys really enjoyed her. Thank you so so much, Melissa!! We will definitely use you for our next vacation!”

About: Family and friends have trusted me to feed, walk and play with their lovely pets for the past 4 years. As a huge animal lover, it would be my pleasure to help with their loved ones. I am currently attending college, mainly online. Starting at the end of August I will have classes from 9am-4pm every Saturday. I do have a part time job where I work Monday through Friday from around 8am-2pm. If you have any questions regarding my schedule feel free to reach out! I follow instructions given to me by clients accurately. Any and all specifications set by clients will be followed. Nothing is too tedious for me.

“Thank you,I’m glad BeBe and Bonnie are warming up to you . I Appreciate you taking very good care of them. We hope to set up more bookings in the future”

“Lucy is always amazing. She is punctual and communicative and attentive to my dogs’ needs. I have 100% confidence leaving my dogs in her care!”

About: I have always had a strong connection and love for animals. I have just recently rescued one of my cats, Gustavo, and saved him from an infection. The love I give for my pets is what I guarantee for your pets. I feel that every pet should get the same attention and love as a human being would, meaning that 100% of my focus would be on taking care of them and making sure they feel comfortable with me. Last minute drop-off or check ins are super okay with me! I know how unpredictable life can get and I would love to take some of that stress off and be able to care for your pets. I currently work a part time job but that doesn't mean in no way that your animals do not come first. The scheduling I have listed is accurate and during that time I'm always available for your needs! I have two cats and a dog I love dearly. I make sure to keep all my animals are healthy and active. As well as keeping your home respected as I would mine!

“Jesus was an incredible pet sitter. He took amazing care of my babies while I was across the country, and I never had to worry. I received pictures at every visit, and he even helped me with dog poo, which was a task! I will recommend him to anyone that ever needs a sitter and request him again and again. He made traveling so much easier. I couldn’t ask for better, more communicative, or more thoughtful! Thank you SO much!”

About: I love dogs and have two of my own Bernie and Bruno, who are very good boys. I work near my home and therefore can check in on fur babies regularly. I walk my dogs twice a day during the week and more on the weekend. I spend most of my time at home with my dogs. I’m happy to follow any specific needs a dog may have. In my home I allow the dogs on furniture and in bed for cuddles. My dogs are very friendly with other dogs.

About: Hi! We’re Kathy and Val. We recently moved to Albuquerque from Santa Fe. We both work from home as contractors and are available for dog boarding and doggie day care at our home. We have 2 dogs, Odin and Brady, who are very friendly. We are very active and enjoy long walks, hikes, etc. We also enjoy cuddling with dogs and sharing lots of love with them. Since we work from home our schedule is flexible. We are available from 7am - 9pm. Daycare (full day) and boarding include a 1-2hr hike, depending on activity level and need of the dog. For boarding the hikes can be as often as every other day depending on their activity level and needs. I currently work from home so caring for my pet and the pets of others is a nice way for me to get off the computer and outside. Your dog will receive play-time, walks, cuddles, and treats (if allowed) from me! I try to stick to their routine/times of going out as much as possible.
