“Monica is amazing. She is professional and dedicated. She makes my dog gets walked in a timely even when weather conditions aren't optimal. My dogs loves her.”


About: I have had cats and dogs around since I was a child. I have been boarding for almost 2 years, and walking/doing check-ins for nearly 8 years. I started out doing walks to help fill my want for pets. But now that I have two of my own, I realized this is something I really love doing and it is always a joy to meet other peoples' fur babies. In my home, I do have one other dog who LOVES to play and gets along with every animal and human he meets. I have a scaredy cat, and a handful of kiddos who I have taught animal etiquette to since they were all babies. We have cared for the smallest dogs to the largest. We have had older dogs, puppies, dogs recovering from surgery, and females in heat (although not at the moment until our puppy is fixed). We love your babies like they are our own, and love to be able to take them with us if we ever go on any adventures while they are here (of course, with permission!) I am a stay at home mom, so I am home the majority of the day to care for any animals in my home. My kids are AMAZING with animals, as I have taught lots of animal etiquette over the years caring for animals -- and now that we have our own fur babies too. In my home, we just treat your fur babies like one of our own. We give them lots of attention, play time, walk time, etc. I also incorporate your schedules with ours (ie feeding, etc). If there are any special requests, I fulfill those needs. When I go to a clients home, I respect everything around me and be as gentle and careful as to make sure that the fur babies are comfortable with me in their home.

About: I have five cats and a lizard at the moment. We have also had many dogs boarding with us in our home for the last three years. I will be starting college in the fall and need some part time flexible work to meet college expenses. With college classes I will have the flexibility to take great care of people's furry friends. I will exclusively visit pets in their own homes. I have a flexible schedule due to college classes. I am also available for house sitting.

“Rachel is prompt and easy to talk to. She pays attention and was really great with our dogs, who are a handful to walk. We will be booking her for pet sitting this month for sure.”


“Shaian was amazing walking Cass, very patient and very friendly towards my puppy. He reacted really well towards her from the get go. I’m definitely going to ask for her services again”


About: My whole life I have worked with animals from experience with my own pets, to working at shelters and animal sanctuaries, pet daycare and boarding with Animal Humane, and fostering pets with medical needs or are too young to be adopted. I work M-F 7am-3:30pm. I typically go home at lunch time so I can let your pet out for a mid-day potty break if needed. I live in a pet friendly apartment with hardwood floors just in case there’s any accidents. The neighborhood I live in is safe with nearby walking trails. I keep plenty of treats on hand and can work with your pets specific needs.


About: I am an experienced positive method dog trainer. I work during the day and I a make sure everyone is safe, comfortable, and happy while I am not home. Kennel training helps keep everyone safe if they are boarding but we can discuss options. My dogs are very sweet and mellow as is my kitty so they get ahold well with most everyone. I do special need animals and have experience with blind and def animals. Additionally, I have have contacts to local vets/ vet techs for advice if emergency issues or questions arise on visit if you or your vet cannot be reached. My summary of experience includes house/pet sitting, boarding, walking, training, drop ins and I have done a bit of grooming as well. I respect any rules you want to implement for your fur babies. I am knowledgeable in dealing with all manner of problems and shenanigans that your animals can come up with. Size of dog only matters if temperament is aggressive. I want to make sure everyone is safe. Please feel free to Ask me for recommendations if you are unsure about your dogs temperament, I can do a free assessment for you so we can find the service that will suit you both best. Sending pictures as well as videos is also totally fine if that helps you feel at ease when you are away or to let you know how much fun we are having! Please feel free to chat with me if you have specific problems, requirements, or concerns with anything so we can address those. I'm excited to work with you and your babies!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from playful puppies to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I’m confident handling big breeds, and I know how to read animal body language to keep them safe, happy, and relaxed. What sets me apart is how much I truly pay attention to each pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, a slow walk, or just some quiet cuddle time, I adjust to them. I also make sure to keep you updated with regular pics and messages so you know your pet is in good hands. If your pup has special needs, anxiety, or is still learning — I’ve got you. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I work part-time Thursday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. My schedule allows me to give pets lots of attention before and after work, and I’m fully available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it with the same respect I’d want for mine. I follow your pet’s routine closely — from feeding and walks to crate time or medications if needed. I always keep a close eye on pets, making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I also send regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing. If your dog is staying with me, they’ll be in a calm, clean, and loving environment with plenty of space to relax and feel at home. Safety is always my top priority.

About: I have an Associates of Applied Science in Veterinary Technology. I am knowledgeable and capable of taking care of special needs pets from babies to seniors. I am competent in giving medications (injections, tablets, capsules, topicals). I am currently working full time at an animal clinic. I am looking for something to fill my day off on Thursdays as well as my nights when I am not working. I change litter boxes, take pets on walks, clean up accidents, play, feed and cuddle your babies. I am able to administer medications as well.

About: Hi there! I'm Celine, an artist living here in Albuquerque who loves helping people out with their pets. Working as a pet sitter has been an amazing way to support my art while spending time with wonderful animals. I previously had a plott hound named Lucy and grew up surrounded by dogs, so I have plenty of experience and a big heart for furry friends. I've honed my ability to understand and cater to the unique personalities, preferences, and needs of each pet, creating a comfortable and secure environment that promotes their overall health and joy. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and boarding, ensuring your pets get the care and attention they need. I only board one dog at a time, providing a calm oasis free from other animals and children. My home is perfect for pets that need a peaceful environment. My partner Randy also lives with me. He is a wildland firefighter and is often away on long trips for his work. While he loves to play with the dogs if he is home, I'm the primary caregiver and will ensure your pets get the best care possible. Whether you need someone to check in on your cat, take your dog for a walk, or provide a safe and calm place for boarding, I'm here to help. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I work from home as an artist and illustrator. My schedule is fairly flexible which will ensure that I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. For daycare requests, I will ensure that I am with your dog for the full day. For boarding stays, I do occasionally have to step out for 1-6 hours at a time for meetings and other errands. I take measures to make their time alone as stress-free as possible, providing toys and treats to occupy them. Whether during drop-in visits or boarding stays, I understand that your pet may be missing you and their normal routine. I will be sure to give them lots of love and attention to hopefully put them at ease. I will take extra care to follow any instructions you have and will make an effort to accommodate any special requests regarding your pet. I only host one dog at a time in my home, making my boarding service ideal for dogs who thrive on individual attention, personalized care, and a cozy, stress-free environment.
