House Sitting Riverfronte

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! 🐾

“Skyler was a great pet sitter and house guest! She watched my two cats for a week. She shared a lot of updates and pictures the whole time. My cats were very happy and unbothered when I came home. I’ll definitely use Skyler again for future trips!”

“Martina jumped in literally in the hours before I was leaving as my other sitter cancelled very last minute. Martina was attentive to all the needs of my very elderly cat, gave him his meds, cared for him as if her own. She left my house in really good condition and tidy/clean after an 11-day stay!”

“Xavier, did an amazing job! Taking care of Oreo over the weekend. Communicated very well and sending pictures. We will rebook with Xavier for next time again.”

“Amber was so professional, responsive and very sweet! She stayed at my house and when I got back from my trip it was exactly as I left it. She sent me photos and videos of my Stout and kept me updated on how he was. I would definitely recommend her and will be rebooking!”

“Abigail was everything we could have hoped for in a sitter! She was responsive and understanding, gave us updates on how our boy was doing, and was very flexible with doing what we asked of her. She took great care of Indigo and he loved her. We will definitely trying to be use her in the future!”

“Kat is the BEST!!! Our dog and cat adore this sitter. Kat sent pictures daily of the animals. Very grateful to have found this super reliable animal lover. After being gone for a week, didn't feel stressed at all leaving our home and pets.”

“Shakti is an amazing pet/house sitter! She is responsive and thorough, and she took great care of our dog and two cats. She followed instructions and went above and beyond by trying to mediate the ongoing drama we have between our two cats. We will definitely use her services again!”

About: My family has a history of adopting older dogs and rescues with health and behavioral problems, so I have lots of experience with senior dogs and dogs who need extra care and attention. Rover is my full time job. I usually work weekday mornings and afternoons, but I'm happy to work with clients individually to come up with a schedule that works. Let me come to you! I can't accommodate pets in my home or car, so I will come to your home to care for and spend quality time with your furry friends!

“Amber did such a great job! She was early, great at communicating, incredibly respectful of our home and took great care of our girls. I’ve had some really bad experiences and I can honestly say I was relaxed during our trip and not nervous about how our first experience would turn out because of her excellent communication. We can finally go on vacation without worrying!”

“Jamie and Patrick did a great job caring for our pets during our 10 day trip! They sent regular updates, took our dog for walks, and took care of all our pets needs so that we could relax and not worry at all during our vacation! We definitely plan to use them again!”

Stephanie G.

“As always, Ava takes great care of my Tallulah & Dennis. Always prompt and arrives when she says. I’m so appreciative of the great care she gives my 2. Especially my Dennis who doesn’t really like anyone but me. She provides regular updates and communicates often. I’m so appreciative and grateful. She is a blessing.”

Melinda D.

“Hannah was great! She came out to meet our cat (and us) and get the run-down. Monkey seemed to like Hannah right away, which is weird for Monkey. Hannah was responsive throughout our trip and left the place spotless. I'll be happy to have Hannah cat-sit the next time our usual friend is unavailable - we are grateful she got us out of a tight spot this time!”

About: I have taken care of dogs almost all my life. I feel like my calm demeanor allows me to get along with most dogs. I would appreciate the opportunity! I am a teacher and will be on my summer break. So I will have open availablility other than when I will be traveling which will be listed as the days I am not available. I will be sure to adhere to whatever service you request. I will not be able to host a dog but again will have open availability to go check on dogs in the comfort of their own home.

“As usual, Alexus did a fantastic job sitting for my dogs for a few days. She really goes above and beyond and it’s clear my girls absolutely love her!”

Benjamin F.

“Another excellent pet sitting experience with Kilee! Kilee is very sweet and professional! She has a lot of patience with Jon Jon and great skills and experience!”

About: I’ve been trusted to care for elderly dogs that need medication, to the littles still in potty training. I will follow whatever instructions are left to give the best care. Even if your baby needs their food “cooked” on the stove or need to be tucked in for a story. I’ve raised two dogs of my own and one cat, all who love to play. Ex-teacher on summer break so my schedule is open. I will be starting school in the fall so scheduling will change but I can easily be flexible and respond quickly. I can accommodate crating, open, yards, going for walks, etc. I aim to give your pet consistency so they are safe and comfortable when in my care.

“As always, Cindy was great with Morty. We love having her stay with our fur baby. She even did some dishes that we had left which was so sweet!”

Christina B.

“Elizabeth is a very good communicator, sending frequent messages and updates and asking any necessary questions. She took lovely care of our home and senior Cat. Our cat seemed very happy and comfortable with her.”

Polly W.

“Miranda was awesome with Benji and was so conscientious! She sent regular updates and was great about communicating with me during the sit. I came home to a content puppy and a very tidy home. I’d recommend her in a heartbeat!”
