House Sitting in Snow Heights, Albuquerque

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience with both. I currently have four cats of my own and volunteer at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter, where I help make sure every homeless kitty gets the love and attention they deserve. In addition to pet sitting and walking for friends and neighbors since middle school, I’ve worked at a professional doggy daycare and boarding facility. There, I was responsible for supervising group play, feeding dogs with specific dietary needs, administering medications (including pills and liquids), bathing dogs, and keeping their environment clean, safe, and fun. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, a nice walk, or making sure your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family! I’m available full-time throughout the summer for pet sitting, walks, and drop-ins! In August, I’ll be moving to Albuquerque for school, but I’ll still be visiting Santa Fe regularly and will update my availability as needed. Once the school year starts, I’ll have more limited availability in Santa Fe, but I’ll still try to accommodate whenever I’m in town! In my clients’ homes, I make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for in their own space. I follow feeding routines, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give them all the attention they need. For dogs, I love going on walks and spending time outdoors. For cats, I offer lots of affection (when they want it!) and make sure litter boxes are kept clean. Whether it’s staying overnight or stopping by for a check-in, I always treat every pet like my own.

“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!!”

“Elliot was great! It was very helpful that she was able to sit for me a bit last minute. She was very kind and kept me updated about how Olivia was doing while I was gone. Will definitely book with her again!”

Brittany F.

“Brigit was wonderful. She worked with our incredibly complicated schedule without issue. Our dog really seemed to love her company. Very responsive during the day if we needed her. Left the house very clean and she was super considerate. Would 100% recommend.”

Daniel L.

“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.”

“Took great care of our dog and our friends dog, and kept the house so clean while house sitting. Responsive, flexible, and the dogs were very happy with her.”

Brendan C.

“We thought Hoss did a terrific job. She was communicative, professional, and very loving to our two cats, who we like to describe as being needy. She sent us photos, kept us updated, and took care of the house. We couldn’t be happier.”

“Kathy was interested in learning about our pets and was great at communicating while we were away. She sent a lot of photos of our dog and cat which were great to see when we were missing them during our trip. Thank you, Kathy!”

“Max is one of the best sitters we’ve had! Communication with max was quick and easy. He sent me updates on how my dogs were doing and when he arrived. Max was gentle and understanding with my barky and insecure pit bull. Aldo really warmed up to him quickly and felt comfortable with him. Will definitey rebook Max in the future.”

Celynda P.

“Fantastic experience! Kymberly took great care of our mini-pack and left our space so clean and tidy. She was extremely responsive to questions throughout the day and we would highly recommend her without reservation!”

Elizabeth O.

“Susana took such great care of Remi when we were away for 12 days. She stayed in contact with me and sent pictures which was reassuring that my pup was doing okay, and he was so well cared for. I’m so grateful for Susana!”

Radha D.

“Madelynne took the best care of our pup and cat while we were away. She was very communicative throughout her stay and sent lots of photos which we really appreciated. She went above and beyond for our sick dog by giving us constant updates and even taking her to the vet. We are so grateful for her time and the love she showed to our pets. We hope to have her every next time we are out of town.”
