About: I’ll be home all day and I don’t mind sending updates and pictures. And we love cuddles. A lot of attention, walks and potty breaks Im home and it would add more activity to my day and we can go on walks. Would love for people to feel safe me watching there babies My dogs are always running around downstairs. Have a fenced back yard and we have a good road that we can walk it’s about a mile. Of course only in the afternoon. And a lot of potty breaks

“Joanne was just wonderful taking care of our two pups. We have only boarded one other time some where else and will definitely book with Joanne again. It was home away from home for our two. I highly recommend Joanne!!”


About: Full time caregiver. I have always grown up with many pets including dauchsands, pitbulls, English bulldogs, parakeets, and even turtles. I do not have any pets currently besides my parakeet, but I am great with almost all. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats! Happy to pet sit in the Albuquerque area as well! I will water if anything needs to be watered or packages brought in during stays! Santa fe can be arranged for longer stays. I am available full time & I will give your pets all my love and attention! I enjoy being active so walks and/or hikes are a plus! I am very cautious and live in a home with a very high 6 foot brick wall and large back yard. It is perfect for running around and safe as well, as well as lots of indoor space!


“Rebecca was amazing!! She kept us up to date on the status of our boys. She had plenty of interaction with our dogs, took them to dog park, took them on morning walks. We will definitely be using her all the time.”


About: I have worked at a Pets R Us Albuquerque NM, I have a GSP and I love him. I reserch everything on animals to make them feel better and to understand them more. I am always home, housewife duties with 2 children that love animals. Will have plenty of time to care for them and make them feel welcome and cuddle with them. I can crate the dogs if needed. I have a very friendly GSP 1 year old that loves to play. In the clients home I can give all my attention to them and make sure they are taken care and fed and walked. Most important loved.


“Pepper had a great time with Laura's family and their pup crew! She was so well cared for, got to take hikes and got all kinds of fun doggy play time. I loved all of the pictures and videos to ease my mind while I was away. I'm grateful to have found a sitter in the area we can count on :)”


“Devona was amazing! I felt very secure that Nugget was taken well care of while I was out of the country. Devona provided photos and updates, just as I had requested!”


About: I have a very close connection with animals and pets and I'm not afraid to get down and dirty playing with dogs. I have a very well trained and obedient dog that only knows how to be friendly. I've done all my own training with all the pets I've had and they all have been commended by others for their training. It has been noticed and mentioned countless times that I have a special connection with animals, especially dogs. I use a Camelback stocked with an additional 2 40oz water thermos, collapsible water bowls, clean-up bags, toys, and a first aid kit to keep everyone hydrated, entertained, and safe on walks and hikes. My schedule is flexible to care for your furry babies. I am available most hours of the day and usually able to accommodate new customers and pets. I keep pets leashed anytime they are not inside a house or a fenced in area to keep your loved ones safe and protected. I am careful of what is accessible and safe for any pet to encounter or consume.

“Elaine is the best! Our westie, Casper, just loves to stay at her home. She is very attentive to all the dogs in her care, and treats them like her kids! She makes sure they are warm and comfortable, and entertained too! Birthday parties, walks, etc all ensure the dogs have a wonderful stay. We are very happy we found Elaine!”


About: I’ve been a dog and cat owner my entire life. I can take your pet on walks while they are here since I am home all day. They will not be alone and will receive a lot of attention. Pets will be cared for throughout the day. They can go in and out as they wish. They can have snacks and toys. I’m home all day so they will not be alone. I have a fenced yard. My dogs and my fosters will stay separate from your dogs. Your dogs will have their own space and room to sleep in.

“Destiny was amazing taking care of my pup. She is very communicative and flexible. My pup totally adored her from the second she took her leash. She didn’t even look back when I had to leave. She sent tons of pictures and followed direction according to my pup’s care plan. I would highly recommend her services for your pup.”


“Vanessa was an absolutely amazing sitter! She answered all my question right away prior to the boarding. I had to drop my dog off a little early and pick her up a little late and she was super accommodating and very communicative. She watched my baby for six days and I received pictures and updates daily so I didn’t feel concerned because she was well taken care of and in good company playing with Vanessa’s dogs as well. I also think she might’ve given her a bath on the last day because she smelled good when I picked her up. She is such a sweet and caring person I definitely look forward to booking with her in the future!”


About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 12 and currently have two well-trained pups, thanks to a professional trainer who also taught me how to be a great caregiver. I’ve watched friends’ dogs for years—many say their pups come back better behaved! While I’m not a trainer, I understand dogs well and offer a loving, structured home. I currently work full time. Pups are never left alone for more than 8hrs! My work schedule is during the day so I will be able to take pups out and for a walk every morning and as soon as I’m home from work! I have 2 pups and a fully fenced in yard. When I come home I immediately take them out, feed them, and let them have plenty of play time!

“Rebecca did a wonderful job taking care of our newly adopted dog. She was attentive to dietary and bathroom needs, and gave plenty of walks and playtime! We are very appreciative. Thank you, Rebecca!”

“Mrs. Ana is amazing she is caring, kind, friendly and just loves pets! She is reliable and trustworthy, and spends time playing with them, which is so important. Recently one of my puppies had an eye infection and Mrs. Ana gave him eye drops for a week while I was out of town. She made it all the better and I had peace of mind. I highly recommend Mrs. Ana as a pet sitter.”

“Thank you Courtnay for everything! A small senior dog is not always the easiest guest but I could tell my baby was loved and so well taken care of!”


Cameron T.
“Cameron is absolutely wonderful with our furry child! You can tell he truly loves dogs and they love him! He takes them on nature hikes and takes exceptional care of our baby while out of town too. We completely trust him to not only take proper care of our dog but also our home. During home sitting/overnight doggy care we have never come home to a mess either as he cleans up after himself and our dog. For dog walking he brings our boy home happy and tired! Cameron is the best choice for all your doggy needs! Highly recommend!!!”
