“Travis did a wonderful job with Mogwai, my giant rabbit child. He provided daily updates and some pictures. I felt Mogwai was in great hands and I came home to a well kept living area. I would absolutely rebook with Travis and recommend!”
About: I've raised and had animals my whole life. My situation right now doesn't allow personal pets :( I'd love to get involved with animals any way I can! I'm currently an engineering graduate student at the University of New Mexico. I have a few classes throughout the week and am otherwise totally available! I've had dogs big and small and lived with cats my whole life! I've even managed backyard chickens and ducks. Yet they're all individuals and I treat everyone as they want to be treated!
“Mariah was amazing!!!! She used the app to its fullest potential and kept me informed of my dogs food breaks, potty breaks, walks, etc. I knew exactly when the dogs were being cared for and she was very communicative. I know my pups would be happy to see her again! I highly recommend Mariah”
“Sara did a great job with taking care of my little buddy and great communication throughout the entire process. Gave me peace of mind while I was away from him for the first time. Would happily go with her again”
“wonderful job once again. Second time I’ve used Alyssa and my cat Max has already started accepting her. He is normallyquite picky and usually afraid of everyone.”
“Aubrey was fantastic dropping in on our dogs for the weekend! Yuri and Apollo absolutely adored her and she took the time to ensure they had food and water as well as played with them outside. She was very flexible and understanding when we had a last minute changes to plans! She kept our home clean and even helped with an ant problem. Will 100% re-book her for our next trip!”
About: Certified animal lover! I have many years of experience working with many different dog and cat breeds. I used to do professional dog grooming so I am educated in wide variety of breeds, behaviors, health conditions, coat care and proper restraint. My number one priority when caring for your fur baby is safety. I grew up around animals and I currently own a Great Dane and Doberman mix. My Doberman has a history of health conditions so I am familiar with administering medication to dogs. Communication is important to me so I try to respond to messages and phone calls as soon as possible. Usually after I sit I give feed back to let you know how things went while you were away. I’m willing to do what ever it is my client asks for to satisfy their needs with their animals that I am being trusted to care for while they are away. I am currently available every day of the week and I have a very flexible schedule. Please contact me for any additional scheduling questions or concerns. When I stay at a clients home I ask for emergency contact information, safe areas, and off limit rooms. If your pet has any known health concerns I ask that you communicate them with me so I can keep an eye out. The safety of your home is just as important to me as your pet! Please let me know if there is any additional requests such as locking up, alarm system rules, checking the mail, etc.
About: I’ve had cats most of my life and I’ve had dogs for the past 17 years. I don’t have my own dog now but my grown kids and friends often rely on me to care for their dogs. I love them so much. I currently work for myself and set my own schedule. My work usually takes me only 3 hours a day. I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! Your pet is my number one priority. I will follow whatever schedule you have for them… walks, feeding, water, treats, playing with them and lots of cuddles!

About: I have had pets ever since I was 3 years old, I am now 19 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.
