House Sitting in Shadow Hills, Albuquerque, NM

“Mariah was a great sitter for the pups! They loved her, and got plenty of walks and love. She sent updates throughout and photos. Thank you!!”

“Our 14YO female heeler bonded immediately with Aarti and she was probably sad when we returned. I like Aarti because she returns texts and requests in a very timely manner. We got photos from her every day which helped to ease any anxiety we had about using a new dog sitter. Her background as a vet assistant also eased our minds with our dog's history of Cushings disease. We travel a fair amount and are looking to have Aarti care for our girl in the future. Five stars for sure.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have spent years caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I also have some light training experience. I’m a night owl but can be up early too, so I’m happy to take on late night or early morning pet care as needed. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of care needs. I’m calm, confident, and attentive with animals, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I'm a mature, patient, and responsible woman with an enthusiastic love for animals. I would be honored if you you'd allow me to put my years of responsibility and experience to use with your fur family! I have a very flexible schedule and a huge heart. Pets have given me so much for so little in exchange. I have all the time and energy for the doggos that need it! I have a two-story townhouse with a fenced-in yard. We have a dog run in our gated community and several parks close by for sniffing exploration.

“Susana took such great care of our pup earlier this year that we rebooked her to stay with our dog, Remi, and my parents' dog, Winnie, when we went out of town for a family event. She's such a wonderful sitter. She was in touch each day, letting us know the boys were doing great, and she sent us pictures, too. Her communication was comforting and put my parents at ease that Winnie was having a great time even though they were away. We appreciate Susana so much and will definitely request her help again the next time we leave town.”

“Kaylin is an outstanding house sitter. She took care of Tigger (cat) for 2 weeks and did a super job and sent pictures everyday and left the house spotless. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Candace was amazing. Took the best care of our baby and even took her on a field trip to the dog bakery. She was on time and flexible when our plans changed. We are absolutely going to use her again.”

About: Dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented—I take time to understand your dog’s unique needs to ensure they feel secure and loved while you’re gone. There’s nothing better than to come home to a happy, tail wagging dog. I am currently a grad student at the University of New Mexico. Pet sitting is something I look forward to each week to take my mind off of all my studies. I enjoy spending time with pets to relieve their stress as well as mine. I take pride in providing respectful, attentive care in your home. Keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their routine, giving them affection, exercise, and calm companionship. I treat every home with the same care I would my own, ensuring everything is clean, secure, and just as you left it.

“Ck B. did a great job of house and pet sitting for me. My precious pup, Luna, warmed up to Ck very quickly. Ck is a consumate professional and I am very appreciative that she spent considerable time at my home, while I was out of town. I also appreciate Ck's due diligence to my pet's care and feeding, as well as her sending me photos of Luna to keep me informed. I will definitely request Ck for future house and pet sitting.”

“We love Patricia! She was amazing with our Frenchie and Golden. Sent lots of photos while we were away and didn't hesitate to ask questions...which I love. Would definitely recommend and will happily use her again for our next trip.”

Missy A.

“Our first time using Christina L. and it was a joy. She came and stayed at our home and took care of our two fur babies and our home as if they were her own. She made us feel so comfortable that we will be booking again. It has been awhile since we felt so at ease leaving them behind. Would highly recommend”

About: I've been a pet caretaker for most of my 45 years, but I only put 25 in the years experience because those adult years of my life have been most dedicated to pet care. I am a serial adopter of rescue animals, so I'm well versed in pet conditions that need special care. I don't crate our animals and I love them all unconditionally. If you have a pet that needs special attention or even a modicum of training, I'd be happy to help you take care of them. I'm a military veteran and author working from home. I spend my entire day spoiling my pets (I have both cats and dogs, and they get along well enough). I walk the dogs daily, sometimes more than once. The dogs get brushed regularly and the cats get brushed if they make an appearance or we can catch them. As mentioned earlier, I do not crate our pets. I prefer to let them roam, but I occasionally do block off certain areas of the house to prevent naughty behavior. The pets are always rewarded for good behavior with snacks.

“Val sit my fur babies twice now and she is phenomenal! My animals were happy when I got home and she did everything I asked. She even went back to stay with my golden retriever Karma when my flight was canceled and I was stuck out of town an additional night. I will definitely be having Val stay with my fur babies again the next time I’m away.”

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: I've been a pet ownee since the age of ten. (Seems like they own us rather than the other way around :-) I've had some great companions over the years including our current dog: Norah Bones. She's 13 and may be the happiest dog on the planet. She's at least in the top ten. There's usually been a cat or two in my house connected to my wife, kids or roommates that I care for as well. Friends have asked me to care, board and travel with their pets more often now that I'm semi-retired. And it seems I'm a pet-whisperer of sorts according to friends. Their pets have always bonded with me sooner than most people they know. I'm traveling often and around the country more now. Denver in July. May be in your area soon. My only concern is when I return home and my dog, Norah wants to know all about the new scents and who I've been seeing. Happy to work out details for your pet's care as needed. Morning and evening walks/outdoor pee breaks would be standard. I'm a retired math/science teacher and can learn any special care needs your pet requires. Also have friends in Atlanta that are well trained in pet care and vet tech services.
