“Emily is an amazing pet care giver. She reliably walked and/ or played with my dog for two weeks. She was very patient with him in the beginning as they got to know one another and now they are best buds. She updated me daily on his care and habits. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her services.”


“Jessica was great, she contacted me about needs and expectations before scouts walk and stopped by for a meet and greet! She really cared for scout on her check in and even made sure she had plenty of water before she left! Will definitely be using Jessica again.”


“Candace is great to work with. I reached out for dog walking my two rescues. They have some quirks and she manages them well. I’m happy she’s available when I need her. I will use her service again.”


About: For the past 12 years I've worked as a full time dog walker and pet sitter. Before that I worked as a Vet Assistant for which I went to school for.

I'm available for dog walking and pet sitting Monday through Sunday. I have very open availability and can work with the owners to figure out a schedule that works best for them. I service all of Albuquerque. I do not provide services for Placitas, East Mountains or Rio Rancho, I can provide pet sitting in my home.

I also never allow them off leash nor do I use retractable leashes. I can provide my own leash if necessary.

“Brooke is the absolute best! She is consistent, punctual, an excellent communicator, and our dog goes nuts when he sees her. I’ve utilized several dog walkers/sitters through Rover in the past but none are as dependable as Brooke.”

About: Living with all types of animals since I was born! One dog, two cats and two lizards in home! Three years in professional pet care, exotic care included! Aspiring vet! I currently work part time with flexible hours. Looking for a reason to switch to pet care full time! I’d love to take care of your animal and hour of the week! I like to spend time with animals in my care. Try to let me know your animal’s favorite activities! If you’re looking for a pet to be cared for in my home, I have a female husky, and two female cats, all spayed. If you have a cat or dog that doesn’t get along with the other half. We keep the cats upstairs and dogs downstairs. No need for interaction if your pet doesn’t prefer it!

“Kimberly was able to help me out last minute, which was amazing! We didn't have time to do a meet and greet, but she was still able to follow my instructions and walk my dog. She is a great communicator and I will definitely use her in the future!”


About: I am an animal-crazy adult Vet Tech student who's been inspired by my 10-year journey with a traumatized, reactive rescue pup who recently passed. I grew up with dogs and cats and rabbits, and adopted a rescued cat while in college who was with me for 13 years, but it was my experience with a traumatized rescue-pup later in life that led me to recently return to school to become a Vet Tech. I initially worked with two private trainers and began studying trauma response in dogs and cats, practicing skills to reduce fear and build trust with special needs pets. I am a registered volunteer with the city and have several repeat/current clients. I make a point of getting to know the personality of each individual in my care, and adapt my energy and/or activities to get as close to their level and needs as possible. I provide care in the comfort of your pet's own home and am available for any activities your pet enjoys. We can walk around your neighborhood, play with enrichment toys, go for a car ride, you name it! I am also happy to just sit with your pet in the same space. My goal is to keep things as close to your pet's normal as possible when they are in my care. When I care for pets in their home and neighborhood, I stay as close to their normal as possible and keep a regular routine they can rely on and trust. I am a guest caretaker in their safe space and always work to respect and honor it as such.

“Svetlana was punctual and great with our dogs. I loved the updates and photos she sent during their walks. We appreciate having her nearby and potentially available even for last minute care or walks.”


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.

“Elliot is absolutely incredible! I have 4 dogs, and they run the gamut: Husky/Belgian Malinois, Great Pyrenees/Lab, Boxer/Pittie, and Frenchie ranging from 13 years to 5 months. Elliot is brilliant with each one of them - able to recognize their needs and accommodate those needs, even as they change day to day. You will not regret hiring Elliot!”
