“Laura is always our go to for our kitties. They warmed up to each other so quickly and they love spending time with her when we’re away. I have 100% confidence that they are in the absolute best hands with Laura. We won’t use anyone else!!! 😻❤️”
“Patrick is so amazing. I am very grateful for his help with taking care of my pup. He is so flexible and accommodating with scheduling. My dog absolutely loves him.”
“My 2nd time using Tabatha and she's been great! She's very communicative, takes pics and plays with my pups as requested. Very grateful I can leave home for extended amount of time without worry.”
“I used Wendy's drop-in service to watch my cat recently and I am very pleased. She clearly loves animals and my cat took to her instantly, she was punctual, sent pictures and went above and beyond by bringing in the mail and cleaning up after when my cat threw up. I highly recommend Wendy and will definitely use her again.”
“Sarah is thoughtful and kind. She gives $110% to the dogs. I would not hesitate to hire her. Your pups will be loved and well cared for! Both of my pups love her! I would keep her forever in my pups life!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and reptiles since I was young. I love all animals and look forward to taking care of your fur baby! I currently work as a bartender/server. I have lots of free time to take care of animals and animals bring me a lot of happiness. I currently live in an apartment complex and have a great space for animals. We do have a dog park at the complex and I live down the street from a golf course, which has a great path to walk.
“Jenny was great. I will definitely use her again in the future and you should too. Daily check ins, my boy Bruno loved her, he was very comfortable with her and I could see that she took great care of him.”
“We asked Brigit to check in on our cat while my wife and I were out of town for two weeks. She has a calm, professional attitude and was quick to respond to questions. After meeting her, it felt easy to trust her with our furry companion as well as letting her into our home. Everyday we looked forward to a photo of our cat from Brigit which really put our minds at ease. We would definitely hire her again.”
“Candice is kind and responsible. She was flexible enough to last minute book with us and do a meet and greet and we are so thankful! The dogs loved her style and she picked up a package for us from outside and reported back with great detail. I wish she could be our walker every day!”
“We rebooked Leah since she did such a great job house/poochsitting before and she did not disappoint! She was punctual, attentive, and even helped our German Shepherd with leash training. She always provides great reports, photos, and videos too! We will definitely book Leah again and recommend her to anyone.”
About: Animals are a large part of my life and I enjoy taking care of each one and their particular needs. I have a wide range of experience from livestock to feathered friends and love them all! I am comfortable administering medication, grooming, playing, and loving on indoor and outdoor animals of all ages. I am attentive to detail and will make sure your pets and home are taking care of to the highest degree. Please reach out with any questions and I look forward to giving you peace of mind while you are away. I'm currently on summer vacation, so I will have plenty of time to give your pets attention and love! I am available to drop in for a visit or stay at your home. If I am already booked for a house stay, no worries, I can still check in on your pets! I can send lots of photos and videos to give peace of mind. Your pets will receive the highest quality of care, and I am happy to follow any special instructions for each and every one. I guarantee a save environment and happy animals!
“This was our first time booking with Lily. She showed good follow through and provided updates and pictures each day during her visits including feedings, spending time with my pets as well as walks. All good is in order and animals are happy! I would not hesitate to book with Lily again!”
“Would recommend August to anyone looking for help with their pets. They are caring and professional and can work with those "tricky" pets. One of our dogs is more skittish when meeting new people and they were able to make him feel comfortable. They are also very communicative and provide lots of information so you know your pets are in good hands”
About: I've been caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and Macaws. I've also volunteered at bird reacues and animal shelters in both New Mexico and Iowa. I have experience in animal training and Im currently an at home student at CNM so I have plenty of time to entertain and care for your pet. I enjoy making pet care a full time part of my life. I have a large fenced in back yard perfect for safe running and playing. It's got a nice spacious grass lawn with pet safe plants. The inside is pet safe and proof for your animals safety.
“My cat adored Ali. They played and cuddled, and of course Ali fed her well and groomed her and took good care of her and the house. She reliably kept her appointments for two weeks and sent me great photos and messages twice a day. I will absolutely use Ali's services again!”
About: I lost my sixteen-year-old fur baby in October, 2018 and find myself missing that special energy only pets can bring. I have been caring for various pets for my friends and family for about 20 years and have done drop ins and overnight visits. I do have a full-time 8-5:30, Monday-Friday (and many Saturdays) job however, and am not available to provide constant care for pets. I do have more than enough time to devote myself to the love and care of your fur baby. In my home, in my life, dogs and cats are family and deserve the same love, care, and respect that human beings deserve. Perhaps more. While I have more experience with dogs I haven’t met a cat I couldn’t win over. Rest assured that if you place the care of your beloved pets in my hands they will be well loved while you are out of town. Your home will be cared for as well. I do have a “regular” 8 am to 5 pm job. My evenings and nights are free. Weekends are also more flexible for me when it comes to spending quality time with your baby. I am not able to provide constant care. I live in an apartment complex so I am more than happy to visit your fur baby in their own environment. I want to make sure your pets are as comfortable as possible so I’d prefer to maintain the schedule and comfort they’re used to.

Laura is a sweetheart of a person and super dependable. She went above and beyond with my two dogs, and did more than expected and also took care of them when they had tummy issues. I am so fortunate to have found her. Will definitely repeat and I am sure my dogs already miss her. Thank you Laura for your kindness and sweetness.
Kristen is absolutely exceptional—we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs. From the very first visit, it was clear how naturally she connects with animals. Our dogs adore her, and that peace of mind is everything to us. She goes above and beyond during every drop-in, always sending thoughtful updates and photos so we can see how happy and well cared for they are. It’s obvious she treats them like her own. What truly sets Kristen apart is her flexibility and reliability. No matter how hectic or last-minute our schedule gets, she is always accommodating and professional. That level of consistency is rare. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, communicative, and genuinely loves dogs, Kristen is it. We’re incredibly grateful to have found her and won’t be using anyone else.
Daniel is a TRUE professional. We have a big pet family with a lot of energy, and it can definitely be a handful at times — but he handled everything with ease. We were nervous about traveling for our vacation, but Daniel was absolutely the best person for the job. He went above and beyond by doing multiple home visits beforehand to make sure our pets felt comfortable with him, and he was fantastic from the start. While we were away, he checked in regularly, sent photos, and spent real quality time with each of our pets. We genuinely appreciate his professionalism, his communication, and the level of care he showed our pets and our family. He made them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!
Kayla was great, and I’m so happy that Nugget felt comfortable around her. Kayla’s check-ins were always thorough, and it made me feel better knowing Nugget was in good hands. No issues with getting Nugget to eat or drink, and Nugget made a new friend even if she doesn’t realize it! Definitely recommend Kayla!
