By far the best drop-in experience and it genuinely seems like Jana loves my dogs as much as they love her. She is always excellent and I will be happy to use her services as long as they are available to me!

Jennifer took wonderful care of our two cats. We left for the holiday weekend in a rush and were very disorganized. Jennifer worked with us and went above and beyond to make sure the cats got lots of love and care while we were away. We have worked with Jennifer for a few years now and we highly recommend her.

About: Hi, I’m Sierra – your pet’s new best friend! 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. I have two sweet Pitbull-Lab mixes at home who’ve taught me so much about patience, loyalty, and unconditional love. I have hands-on experience with administering medication (oral and topical) and even diapering pets who need a little extra care. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or needs special attention, I’m confident in creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for them. I proudly service Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Los Lunas, Bernalillo, and parts of the East Mountain villages. I’m happy to work with your schedule, send regular updates and photos, and make sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and detail-oriented, I’m your person. Let’s set up a meet and greet! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. I have two Pitbull-Lab mixes who keep me on my toes! Between walks, playtime, feedings, and cuddles, I’m used to building my day around pets and their needs. Taking care of other people’s pets just feels like a natural extension of what I already do. I’m flexible with my schedule and love being around animals, so whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, I’m happy to make it work! When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I stick to your pet’s usual routine with feeding, walks, meds, playtime, and all the cuddles they want! I’m also happy to bring in mail, water plants, and keep things tidy while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick visit or an overnight stay, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home.

Svetlana took excellent care of our two dogs and cat. You can tell she really loves animals and spent a lot of time with them. She was very well prepared and made sure she understood everything before we went out of town. She was reliable and communicated very well and sent tons of pictures while we were away. She also went above and beyond, playing fetch and bringing a new ball for them to play with. We will definitely book with Svetlana again in the future.

About: Owned animals my whole life until recently and enjoy loving everyone else's pets until I'm ready to have my own again. Family, friends and friends of friends can always count on and trust me with their furry baby and homes. They would comfort me as much as I would comfort them. I'm patient, kind, and always follow instructions and will communicate if wanted or needed. Thank you for trusting me with your furry children! 🙂 I am currently work part time from 11am -5 pm and go to school part time. I like to spend my summers with animals. Also, a walking companion? That's a sweet deal. I have overnight sat with cats and dogs or even both. Often times if I don't stay overnight I still spend some extra time walking, playing or cuddling with your animals so they don't get lonely or cooped up. I like to follow instructions so if they have a certain routine they don't get thrown off too much. I honestly would be open to anything you need.

Candice is one of the most caring person we know. She has gone above and beyond to ensure Bea is safe and comfortable. While the weather was pretty bad during the time Candice was watching Bea. She made sure Bea was safe and secure. We are so grateful for Candice.

About: I am a Travel Anesthesia Tech who has a super flexible schedule and can adjust to whatever works best for you! I’m currently in between contracts but I keep my schedule up to date. I have two dogs and a cat of my own, two eight year old Yorkie Terrier brothers, and a year old Tortie. I have also worked with showing dogs as an American Kennel Club Junior handler, working with Mastiff’s, Akitas, and Schnauzers. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats all my life, and love all animals. I am bilingual; I speak Spanish as well as English. I have also spent some time abroad in Ireland, where I volunteered at a dog shelter there, helping to look after all different breeds of dogs. I look forward to interacting with so many animals in the future. I am currently only working part time throughout the week, which allows lots of flexibility for any bookings! I don’t have specific work hours preset, so I can adjust my schedule to yours :) I am a big believer in animal body language and boundaries, and making sure animals are comfortable and happy through my time caring for them.

Rita was amazing! I have a diabetic cat, and this was the first time I left her with a sitter. Rita completely put my mind at ease. She sent me twice daily updates and pictures. She was knowledgeable about giving my cat her insulin injections, and she took perfect care of my cat while I was gone. I 100% recommend Rita, and I look forward to booking with her again.
