My dogs seem to love Lillie! She is great at keeping us up to date during the visits and follows instructions well! I love how she remembers to keep important information, such as vet records and emergency contacts, updated! It makes us feel much safer knowing our babies are in good hands! Thank you, Lillie!

Brooke was amazing with our two cats. This is the first time in their 7 years that we returned home to cats who were happier than when we left. Seriously, happy. No stress in them at all upon our return. Thank you Brooke!!!

About: I've grown up with dogs (mostly big ones) all my life. I've worked with big, small, and medium dogs and understand behavior stems not from breed but from how the fur babies have been treated. Currently in between jobs so Bear and I have lots of time for walks in the park and dog park fun. We love meeting other pups. I have a safe fenced yard with a dobie who gets along with all sized pups. I make sure to keep the yard and house clean to ensure a friendly welcoming environment. We can also crate doggos if owners would like.

About: As a life long animal lover, I would enjoy getting to meet your fur babies. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I love going for walks, hiking and hanging out playing fetch! I am currently a part time student that enjoys being active and caring for animals. With my spare time I have enjoyed dog sitting and house sitting. While caring for your pets, I will make sure to follow your instructions carefully. You can be sure I’ll be giving them lots of love, attention, fresh water, exercise, and stick to their feeding schedule. Communication with you, pet owner is key to understanding what your pets need’s. I love to send pictures and updates!

Highly recommend! During my trip, she provided regular updates and adorable photos. She went above and beyond by playing with my cats, keeping the litter box clean, and fed them appropriately. :)

Regina was absolutely great! She came the day prior to pick up the key to my home and meet my puppy as well as go over any questions. Little Cali absolutely loved her! On the actual sitting day, I received plenty of pictures and updates and it looked like she had a blast. Will definitely be booking again.

About: Hi! I’ve worked in professional pet care for over 14 years through Petco and PetSmart, where I gained extensive hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. While I’m not a certified trainer, I’ve completed multiple courses focused on dog behavior, handling, and training techniques. I’m especially comfortable with energetic dogs, shy or anxious pets, puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households. I also have experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs, including timid cats, high-energy cats, seniors, and cats that may need extra patience and attention while their owners are away. Safety, patience, and communication are extremely important to me. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure owners feel updated and comfortable while their pets are in my care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, overnight care, feeding, playtime, or just extra attention while you’re away, I’d love to help! I just moved to Albuquerque from Austin Texas and I am currently looking for jobs right now so I am available anytime for your pets needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone in both your home and with your pets. I care for my own senior cat with patience, consistency, and close attention to comfort and routine, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I watch. I believe pets feel safest when their normal routine is respected, so I always take the time to learn their preferences, personalities, and needs. Whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, medication, feeding schedules, or simply giving them space to feel comfortable, I treat every animal with kindness and respect. My goal is to make your pets feel secure and cared for while giving you peace of mind that your home and animals are being looked after responsibly and compassionately.
