Cat Sitting in Sandia Park

“Emily is a fantastic pet sitter! She dropped in on our two cats while we were away and took great care of them. She was super communicative, reliable, and prompt. We will definitely be repeat customers if Emily is available when we are out of town. Thank you, Emily!”

“I am so happy with the service I received from Lisa! Everything that needed to be done was completed and my house was just as I left it. I feel blessed that I had such a skilled pet sitter and loved all the pictures. Getting the information everyday helped put my mind at ease that my very old kitty was in the best hands.”

“Joy went above and beyond while looking after Kitty for two weeks. She made sure my cat was comfortable, healthy and loved. Great communication with lots of pictures and laughter. Joy has a very interesting way of life, avid about health, care and nutrition.”

“Misty stayed at our house, taking care of our two cats and did a great job!! Our cats are very skittish, and do not really like strangers, but Misty did everything she could to socialize with the cats and make them comfortable. By the end of the stay, I believe the cats were not as afraid, and started warming up to her, which is a big accomplishment! She sent pictures and updates daily, and assured us that things were going well. She kindly agreed to feed and water the wild birds and rabbits, and even sent pictures of them. The house was immaculate upon our return, and we knew that the cats were safe and well cared for. I would definitely recommend Misty, and look forward to having her house sit in the future!!”

About: I've raised 6 dogs, 3 cats, and a flock of chickens over the last 15 years, and have also pet sat for friends and family extensively. My husband and I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats in our family, and two of the pups are certified therapy dogs whom we take to a memory care facility to visit the residents every other week. Before starting therapy dog work, I volunteered at the local animal shelter as a dog walker for 12 years, giving me a wide breath of experience with different dog breeds and personalities. I have a soft spot in my heart for pitties because they're such cuddle bugs, but have grown to love all types of dogs, from crazy energetic border collies to lazy couch potatoes to little grumpy old men. My husband and I adopted a 14 year old pup from the shelter to give him a retirement home, so I also have experience with the extra care that our senior citizens need. Besides the typical cats and dogs, I'd be happy to take care of any other critters you have, from little rodentia like hamsters and guinea pigs to outdoor livestock like chickens and goats. For me - as for you - pets are truly family members, and I look forward to meeting your family and taking the best care of them while you're off on your adventures. I am currently transitioning from a two-decade-long career in engineering science research to pursuing a dream to start a farmstead. As I get my farm off the ground, I have ample time to share my love of animals with your family. My schedule is completely flexible, so I am able to adapt to what you need and what works best for your critters - whether it is dropping in once or twice a day to feed, love, and play with everyone, taking the pups on a mid-day walk, or staying overnight if they need extra care. If you require a specialized arrangement, let me know, and I can make it happen! In my personal experience, many dogs and most cats are more comfortable in their own environment, so I would prefer to come to you and take care of everyone in your home; however, if you'd prefer to board your pups with me, let's talk about options. When I come to you for a drop-in visit, I will spend a minimum of 30-60 minutes feeding everyone, playing in your house or fenced in yard, and giving lots of love. For dog-walk visits, we'll go for a 30-60 minute walk around the neighborhood; if you have more than two dogs, we'll go in rounds of 1-2 dogs per walk. If you'll be gone for an extended trip and/or your animals need some extra attention, I can stay at your house overnight. In addition to the primary responsibility of caring for the animals, I am also willing to do any other little chores you need taken care of, such as watering plants and feeding the fish. I'm very flexible and will work with you to ensure everyone gets the care they need. No matter which approach we take, I'll send you regular text updates and plenty of pictures, and will always be available by phone if something comes up.

About: My dogs, Tuffy and Jefe, just recently passed due to the sickness of old age. I got them about 16 years ago when I was just a little girl. I took care of them like they were family, cause they were! I trained the dogs many skills; Sit, Stay, Walk, Guard, Talk, you name it. They lost those skills as they grew into elderly animals. Tuffy, had a stroke and his back legs were paralyzed for the last 4 years of his life. I helped him learn how to stand and walk all on his own again. Jefe simply fell a victim to typical elderly animal symptoms. Blindness, Deafness, inability to control their bladders, inability to smell. He grew very timid and was refusing to eat. I helped him how to relearn his balance and learn the vibration in the floors, I helped him relearn to eat. I want to help you with your fur baby, young or elderly! All ages are just as precious as the rest. I'm currently in school part time which leaves me plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! I'm also very active and love taking dogs on walks. I do not offer onboarding services at this time. Any mess made in your home will be cleaned on the spot. I am very respectful of others' spaces.

About: Ive been watching my family’s and friends animals for years now. With the responsibility of feeding them, giving them water, and playing with them when needed. I have to take care of my cat and dog daily and I often watch my neighbors dogs, cats and horses for them while they travel. I always make sure I take care of the animals according to the owners instructions, or to take care of their house as they ask.

“Maggie was wonderful to work with. She was flexible, helpful and understanding when a glitch came up in our planning. She took great care of my 3 kitties who were unstressed when I returned. I received photos each day which confirmed my kitties were making sure they got their loving.”

“This was our first experience with Rover. Kathy did a great job! Excellent communication. We received a report and pictures every time she was there. Best of all, our two kitties loved her! Thank you, Kathy! We appreciate you!”

Suzanne E.

“Hutch was a wonderful kitty sitter, especially considering Pumpkin was just a kitten! She was very courteous of our home and sent us daily pictures. 5 starts for sure! Thank you again Hutch!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life from german shepherds to dachshunds . The only time I can recall not having a dog was the first couple years in the Navy because I was out to sea so much. I love dogs of all sizes! I currently have a 10 year old weimaraner of my own Ari. So your precious pup will have someone to play with while staying with me. I take my own dog on walks/hikes, to dog park, runs, and swimming when we can find water for her. For being in Navy veteran and nurse, I am responsible and will take good care of your pup. Plus, there is vet not even .25 miles from home, if something where to go array which is not likely. Can't wait to meet you and your pup! I am currently in masters program and working remote and essentially here all day with them. Plenty of potty breaks and walks to come. Safe friendly neighborhood I have a fenced yard and lots of easy safe walking my neighborhood. I can crate them if you prefer but they are allowed on furniture here.

“Always great and reliable thank you”

“She handled my miscreant kitties beautifully (they get to go outside and sometimes don’t come in when planned but this was not an issue with Shelly)! I returned home to happy cats and that’s what it’s all about.”
