About: I’ve grown up with numerous dogs throughout my entire life. I also love spending time with and caring for other animals including cats, reptiles, horses and other farm animals. I worked for a year at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I would watch over sometimes 20+ dogs at a time. I have dog sat and walked before on Wag! and through family friends. I’ve learned a lot about body language and positive feedback based basic training. I’ve cared for many pets including my own of all ages and who have suffered with various medical conditions and treatment plans. Most of all I just love to love on animals 🙂‍↕️🫶🏻 I’m currently just doing side gigs and focusing on making art throughout my days. I have no hard limits on availability and would love to work with you to fit you and your pets’ schedule! I have a fenced yard with 3-4 dogs at my semi permanent residence. I will mostly reside in a hotel going forward so will not be offering services at my home. I have a Lexus Rx-350 that I’m willing to transport pets in at the owners discretion and with correct safety precautions.

“Very good with my dog, was on time and response to all questions, took really cute dog pics on his walk, and her pricing works for me!”

“Dante went above and beyond to care for my dogs during my trip. The weather was awful but Dante was undaunted and walked them anyway or played with them on the porch as conditions allowed. Very good communication and very responsible”

About: I have owned animals my entire adult life - dogs, cats, fish - and have cared for horses as well. I have a strong preference for dogs of all types, young and old. I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, and I am able to accommodate most requests. I have a primary-school-aged child who is also great with animals! I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, and I am able to accommodate most requests. I am mainly free from 7:45AM to 3:30PM and anytime after 5:00PM. Any pet owner within walking distance can be comfortably accommodated. My home is single-story with a small and medium-sized doggie door. I have a yard in the back with grass - dogs will have the run of the place. I have a primary-school-aged child who is also great with animals, and a partner who also loves animals. Both would be involved with any in-home pet care. Crate-trained animals are preferred. Cats are, unfortunately, not allowed in the home (severe allergies).

“He was great with my fur baby. He kept me updated throughout his time at my house and out on the walks. He even made sure there was fresh water in his bowl before he left. Will definitely rebook in the future.”

About: I have raised dogs, cats and a variety of other animals my whole life. From fostering, to baby sitting to raising pets of my own, I have always loved animals and caring for them. I currently have 3 dogs (ages 3,3 and 5) and 2 cats, one being a senior (ages 10, and 2). I’ve adopted all of my animals from shelters or friends, adopted them at a variety of ages and one of my dogs is disabled (born with only one eye). I am proud to say that I have done my absolute best to give them the proper care and love and attention they deserve, and I think they have been all very happy and well cared for! I am a before and after school instructor, as well as a university student, so I am free in most afternoons. I can do early morning and afternoons before 3pm. I have a large fenced yard that my dogs play in every day. I feed them every morning and afternoon, visit them daily and have them sleep inside every night. My family is very loving towards our animals, and I have never had issues with my pets showing signs of stress or unhappiness. I treat them with the love and kindness I treat everyone, and have raised both from adoption, two since they were a puppy (they are now 3) and one since he was about 1 year old (he is now 5).

“We were looking for a trustworthy, dependable walker for our rambunctious dog and Melissa fits the bill! She seems like a genuinely good person who our dog just adores. It's hard to let a stranger handle your beloved pets. Your friend is in good hands with Melissa! We'll continue to use her for daily walks.”

About: From birth I have been surrounded by cats, dogs, horses, chickens, goats, and many creatures in between. My dad trained dogs and horses (no such thing as cat training…. If you know, you know) and taught me all he knows. I have fostered and trained puppies and currently have 2 cats of my own who are great with dogs. I am a travel nurse and don’t think the long shifts would be fair to have a dog of my own, otherwise I would! I had to remove all of my bengal’s teeth after an emergency and had to fight a newly adopted bengal to give him his antibiotics and pain meds in forms of pills and drops. I have lived through many animals’s passing from old age so am well versed in senior cares as well. Through my career and life experiences no emergency is too big for me. Your pets activity level will become mine- young or old hearted I am here to hang! I got cats so I could go away for weekends and still hire folks on Rover to come give them love on trips they can’t come cause I feel too bad otherwise. Pets are our babies and alike to humans all have their own personalities. I am super excited to get to know yours and thank you for trusting me with your family members :) I work 12 hour night shifts from 7pm-7am 3 days a week, but my partner works from home so there is always someone to give them love. Off days are spent in the mountains on trails or relaxing around the house. I have a large backyard and 2 cats who are missing a dog to play with or rooms they can safely relax in if your furry friend is not other-pet friendly. I come home to go on a walk and wake up in time to drink some coffee and enjoy some hours before work. I have a high fenced yard. I like to keep the routine the same as their normal, so will rely on your directions on when to feed, exercise, and wind down if there are any specifics. Multiple walks a day during the cooler hours is my favorite way to exercise, and if your pup is social enjoy a good social outing to the local dog park. I like to fish up in the mountains so picnics and splashes in some mountain water is always a dog approved activity in my experience

About: I have always had dogs. Love them just like a human. I will care for your dog kids just like my own with love and compassionate care I do work full time weekdays. I have a big yard with 2 different runs. One for small and for bigger dogs. Both runs have shade and access to water. My dogs are treated just like I would treat my human kids. They are in the house except for walks or potty breaks. Exercise is required as I live across the street from a park

About: I currently work as an animal protection officer for the City of Albuquerque animal welfare department. I'm can handle energetic pets with high physical activity needs. I have 2+years experience as a shelter volunteer and 1 year experience as doggy daycare attendant. I have worked with dogs and cats various breeds, ages, temperaments and sizes. I've handled various behavioral problems, health problems, and even special needs (visual impairment, hearing impartment, trauma, missing or damaged limbs.) I can do minor medical work, bottle feed, and have experience with cats and dogs from early puppyhood to end of life. I will use my knowledge, skill, and experience to ensure the best quality care for your pet. I currently have two dogs that I care for every day. I moved here recently so I'm in the process of becoming a volunteer at a shelter here. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs. My dogs are walked often and the first thing I do in the morning in give them attention. I've done some basic obedience training with them and have had them for several years.

About: I’ve been taking care of family dogs my entire life! Love being the dog sitter I could only imagine how cool it would be to do it for a job?! I constantly take my dogs to the park! And I have a lot of free time as my work generously allows it he he 😋 I will take care of my clients home as if it was mine! My home is very pet friendly my dogs will love yours for sure!

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and entertain their pets. I currently work full time but am available 24/7 on the weekends. During the week, I can walk/feed/play morning and evening around my work schedule. I understand all pets are different and that their needs vary. I am flexible and willing to accommodate any special needs that your pet may have.

About: Hi! My name is Tamyra. I have three large dogs of my own and grew up working with animals — my first job was at a dog boarding facility, and I volunteer at Watermelon Ranch. I also spent two years as a live-in nanny caring for two toddlers and three pets, so I’m experienced with busy households and all kinds of dogs. I treat every dog like family and would love to care for yours! I’m available all summer! I’m graduating from UNM this May, so I’m very flexible and can care for your pets any day of the week. I care for every pet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. My pup Jilly is truly my best friend, and I bring that same warmth and dedication to every dog I care for. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and joyful environment—keeping their routines, giving them plenty of affection, and making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved at all times.

About: I'm an avid thru-hiker who completed the 2,192-mile Appalachian Trail, and a lifelong dog lover. I'm active every day with hiking, walking, and yoga, so your dog will never be under-exercised. I currently feed and care for six semi-feral backyard cats, so I'm comfortable with animals of all temperaments. Reliable, patient, and happy to follow your pet's routine exactly. I've also hiked Spain's Camino del Norte and run a small hiking YouTube channel (Dundee Hikes). I am retired, my days are flexible and built around staying active — morning yoga, daily walks or hikes, and plenty of time at home. Pet care fits naturally into that: I'm around most of the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and company, and I can adapt to your pet's existing routine. I will take clear and concise notes and follow your pet's routine exactly. I will care for them like they are my own and be respectful of your property.

About: With every house sitting or with ten dog walking sessions I will draw your pet! (No extra fee) I grew up with two kitties, Daphne and Velma (yes like Scooby Doo!) and one dog, Ruby. And now that I am an adult I have a high energy, silly kitty named Pearl! Growing up I was responsible for walking Ruby every day after school and on the weekends. I was also Velma's preferred human, she would join me while I did my homework and even when I left to college my mom would send me pictures of her on my pillow. (Daphne was a wall flower and stuck to herself for the most part haha) Pearl is my kitty with full energy! I play at least five times a day, 30 minutes each with her and I have been doing clicker training. She successfully has no issues with nail trimming, going to the vet, and is learning new commands. I enjoy hiking in the Sandia Foothills so I would love to take you doggie out there or in your local neighbor hood! I will match your furry friend's energy, so if they prefer to sit on the couch for cuddles, I am more than happy to do so! I am currently working part time working on my children's graphic novel pitch so I have plenty of availability to spend time with your fur baby! I have availability from 9am-10pm. On hotter days I prefer to walk your pups before noon or after 5pm evening so they don't overheat. I would love to meet your pet first before we work together (no charge). That way you can let me know of any health or behavioral concerns and your furry friend isn't scared when a stranger shows up! I let your pet dictate our interactions. (Holding out my hand for them to sniff, giving space if your kitty has, "airplane ears" or if your dog has a, "whale eye,"). I am also experienced in redirection, if your dog is barking I'll get the tennis ball going.
