“Stephanie was great with my Poochie. She took care of him as her own. He seemed to be comfortable and at home while being watched, which gave me peace of mind, I will be using her again my next weekend out of town! 🥰”
“Josie, Peter & Paco treated my pup so well while I was out of town! They were super flexible and made my dog feel right at home- I’ve really never seen him so comfortable in someone else’s space! I got plenty of updates and my dog is tuckered out from all of his playtime. Definitely will be booking with them again next time we are out of town, so glad to have found them through Rover.”
“My dog’s second overnight stay with Karen in 3 months and it’s his home away from home. I almost feel bad bringing him home. Karen’s place is like a doggy’s dream. She sends home a review about the animal’s stay and even a bag of gourmet doggy treats! I feel 100% at ease when Riley is with Karen. I look foreword to his next visit!”
“Bubba was a happy pup during his stay and Miranda was great with communication and updates on our Bubs. He seemed very happy when we picked him up! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Miranda!!!! 😊”
“Rosalia cared for our dog Winnie for 3 weeks while we took a dream vacation. It was pretty hard for us to feel good about leaving Winnie for so long, but Rosalia made it easy with daily updates. It was clear to us that Winnie was having a great time, which enabled us to have a good time on our trip. Thanks Rosalia!”
“Bonni is wonderful with Spike. She's patient and understanding of my old guy. This is important since he's deaf and nearly blind. We trust her absolutely.”
“Another successful stay with Cecilia and Dan! This time, when I was getting Buddy’s things together to go over there, I told him he was going to see them, and he got super-excited and ran to the door repeatedly! He even jumped in the car before it was time for us to head over there! Pretty safe to say that Buddy loves being with them, and that makes us happy!”
“Our boys loved their first stay with Pat! Our George is diabetic and Pat was able to take care of his needs and keep him on schedule with his medication. They were pooped when they got home and slept all day, which is a sign of a good time!”
“Cheri was great!! She gave Dax time to get used to her house before introducing him to her precious dog. She sent pics and updated me when I picked Dax up. I was running late and she was very gracious about that.”
“Rebecca is so kind, I would recommend, 10/10! Can definitely tell her love for animals, so you can leave your pet with her with no worries. She sent pictures of my dog throughout her stay, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! (:”
“My biggest grudge is when someone expresses when they only gave one star " cuz they couldn't give any less"... When do we support local business and recognize our community for the good that surrounds us? !!! Recognize beauty people!!!!! This man is the real thing; a dog whisperer through and through. Incredibly kind, greeting my pup with a treat at first meet. Communication is HUGE for me. Pics were shared - almost immediately - and direct messages were alleviating. We all want to know our loved ones are in the best care. Michael is communicative, engaging with the guests, and truly, one of a kind. I'd book him immediately, if he doesn't forget my little girl...”
“Thomas, Matthew and George cordially welcomed my fur baby into their home. I was provided with updates and photos during my pups stay. I will definitely book another stay in the near future.”
About: Here's a bio you can drop straight into Rover — written to lead with trust and play up your small-dog experience: --- Hi, I'm Gaby! Your dog will feel like part of the family the moment they walk in. I share my home with three schnauzers, so I've spent years fluent in the small-dog world — the big personalities, the specific quirks, the way a little dog just wants to be in the middle of everything. That's exactly what I'll bring to your pup. I'm based in Mesa Del Sol and offer boarding and dog walking, with a focus on small dogs who'll fit right in with my crew. Your dog won't be a lonely guest, they'll have three friendly companions, a cozy spot to settle, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My large patio is great for supervised outdoor time, and I build in regular walks so everyone gets their exercise and sniffs in. What you can count on: frequent photo and video updates, a consistent daily routine, and honest communication about how your dog's doing. I'm background-checked through Rover, and I treat every dog like I'd want mine treated when I'm away. Have a pup with special routines, medications, or a shy streak? Just tell me — I'm happy to work with! Yes! My husband and I are a duo/team. I go on long walks in the morning to Tucker out the pups before heading to work. Then my husband watches them and takes them out for a mid day stroll (temperature willing) before I return home at 3 pm. Weather/temperature allowing I take the dogs on 1-3 mile walks once I am home. I love to play with the animals as it brings me joy. I find happiness in providing attention and time to your best friend. The apartment is completely safe and will receive many walks along with play time in the park.
“Jamie did an excellent job dog-sitting! She was very communicative, kind, and responsible. She took excellent care of our dog and we would use her again and recommend her highly.”
“Cindy was great with our three dogs while we were out of town. She is experienced and overall everything seems to have gone very well! She communicated regularly with us and was very flexible. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Savannah took really good care of Maple. She was patient, understanding of her unique needs and helped fixed a nutrient problem we didn't realize was an issue. Maple came back "smiling" with the zoomies. We will definitely be using her again!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone, so we were a little nervous—but Jamie made the whole experience incredibly easy and reassuring. She was wonderful from the start and even set up a play date beforehand so we could make sure it was a good fit, which we really appreciated. Drop-off and pickup were both smooth and hassle-free, and during the stay we received regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. It was clear our dog was well cared for and happy the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and would absolutely trust Jamie again in the future.”
“I’m so glad I found Courtnay! I’m new to ABQ and was worried about leaving my anxious pup behind, but Courtnay immediately made me feel like my girl was in fantastic hands. She sent tons of pictures and videos, was very communicative, flexible, and gracious. I’m so grateful and will definitely be booking again.”
About: I grew up around dogs ages 1-13 and have spent 3 years taking care of other dogs. I'm experienced in providing medication, cleaning up after them, and preparing food.

I love going on walks and playing with animals, so no matter where we are, they will have a great time!

“Nicole took very good care of our two year old cat while we were away for a week. She gave us regular updates and photos and took time to play with our cat when she was over to feed her. We came home to a very happy kitty :) thank you Nicole!!”
About: My family and I will care for your pets like our own. We have a little farm and love dogs and cats.Let the fun begin on our little farm with you furry friends.

I have a fenced yard safe for your pets as well as kennels and baby gates for in home care to keep pets happy and safe.
“Jennifer was fantastic with our two cats and made them feel very comfortable while we were gone for roughly 5 days. One of our cats has pretty bad anxiety but she made them feel companionship and peace. Jennifer was flexible and made the best of some occasional circumstances outside of her control too, definitely would strongly recommend!!”
“Karen is a joy to work with. She is obviously an animal lover. She certainly has the. ‘Magic touch’ when it comes to making our Emit kitty feel comfortable and loved while we were away. I really appreciated the photos and updates daily. I’ll definitely booking Karen next time we’re going out of town. Thank you Karen for your excellent care. We appreciate you.”
“Brooke was wonderful with our kitty! She was a new kitty, so we were a bit nervous about leaving her, but everything went beautifully! Brooke played with her and sent pictures every day, so we knew she was being stimulated, looked out for, and cared for. Thank you so much, Brooke! Highly recommend!!!”
About: I absolutely love dogs, and will treat your baby like mine. I got into this because finding good care for my dog is such a stressful experience as my tolerance for risk is extremely low. I am a nervous dog mom and will care for your pets like they are my own, they will be safe and secure with me and you will get as many updates as you would like. I’m available for boarding on the weekends as well as from Tuesday- Wednesday night. I work in ABQ as well so if you need someone to stay at your house during the week while you are on vacation I am happy to do that as well. In clients home I want to make sure I have a good understanding of their routine and behavior. Having a high level overview of your dog will help me care for them. A former roommates dog had a thing for people on skateboards so when we were on walks, I knew I needed to hold him tight as they were passing. Understanding your dogs quirks will help me care for them.
About: People laugh when I say "dogs are my only friends." Started in 2022, I never imagined this would become my full time job. Ive grown up around animals my entire life, from horses, cows, chickens, goats, fish, dogs and cats, so its truly an honor to be able to pursue something I love and care for so deeply. I have lots of experience in specialized care, from potty training, to senior care. My goal is to always make the dogs feels like home, and ensuring small controlled environments for a stress free stay, all while building their confidence, to maintain a happy healthy dog. I live on an acre fenced in with 5ft high piped fence all the way around. The yard is very secure. There is lots of room for dogs to explore and play. The property is shaded by a variety of trees. We have a mini swimming pool setup to cool the paws off during the hot summer months. We have a large concreted shaded porch. It is very cozy and welcoming. I do this full time as mentioned above, so I am around dogs pretty much 24/7, but some other passions I have is gardening. When you pull up to the property during spring and summer you will see that I have flowers hanging on every post on the porch. I also have a garden in the back fenced off from the dogs that I tend too. We also have chickens! (Dont worry they are completely safe and fenced in from the dogs and any other predator that would want to reach them.) I am licensed and insured as well as Pet CPR/First Aid certified. Some services I offer: In my home: Daycare and overnight pet sitting. At your home: Drop in Care. Please reach out to me if you have any questions! I do pet daycare and boarding full time. So you can imagine just how much of my daily life is revolved around dogs. I spend a majority of my days with them. I have a fenced secure yard, 5ft tall piped fence all the way around. My goal for in home sitting is to try and keep their routine the same as much as possible. We also have cameras setup and if we’re not at the home, the dogs are still monitored.
“Izabella was wonderful!! She's super responsive, an excellent communicator, and has a lovely and warm personality. She took great care of my special needs chihuahua while I was out of town, and I look forward to booking her in the future.”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was young and have a lifelong love for animals. I currently have one dog and two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of providing pets with attentive, loving care. I have also volunteered walking dogs for a local shelter, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I am comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for both dogs and cats. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, hiking adventures, playtime at the park, or simply relaxing at home, I'm happy to provide the care and companionship they need while you're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals as I lived on a farm for a good chunk of my life. I will do the best that I can do to take care of your furry one! I am working full time and I am also a student, but I make sure all pets are taken care of first no matter what. I do live in an apartment by myself with another small dog and cat. They are great with other animals and we have a big backyard to sunbathe roam around in. Anything you may need done in your own home, I can most certainly do too.
About: I have owned diabetic dogs and one with epilepsy. Friends and coworkers always ask me to watch their furbabies because they know how good my husband and I are with our own. They trust us and coming from someone who rarely traveled and when I did I took them with me because I don't trust others would take care of them like I do. I understand the anxiety that comes with having to leave them behind for whatever reason. Knowing they will be loved and have fun makes it that much easier for both you and your pet. Safety and security are also most important to us so rest assured they will be okay. I'm a stay at home mom and my husband's business is from home so we are both always here. We never leave for more that 3 hours due to our 2 dogs. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around. My brother also lives across from me and has over an acre of running room as well if needed. My husband and I work from home and are always available. We used to have dogs with medical issues and couldn't really leave them with anyone. My husband and I love animals and know how hard it is to leave them anywhere. Even at petsmart hotel they stay inside a small area and the play area isn't that big. We work from home and are never away longer than 4 hours. We have a 2 year old who is really good with the dogs as well but Rest assured we never let her play with them unattended. We have a large yard for dogs and know that they will be taken care of and loved while visiting us. All pets need love and attention. Even pet hotels leave them alone overnight and the thought of them having to hold it or use it in their space to feel ashamed is aweful. With us you get peace of mind and that's priceless In my home they will be treated like our own. They can play outside as long as they want. They scratch on the door ahead. They want in or out. They sleep inside on our bed with us of course. We want them to sleep wherever they feel comfortable. My dog buddy sleeps in his cage when he stays with others because he feels safe there so we understand everyone is different.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Adelino
“Miranda was great! This was our first time leaving Remy with someone, and he was very nervous at first, but she did a great job calming him down. A few hours later, she sent us videos of him playing with the other dogs, which made us happy to see.”
“Lauren was great. She greeted us on arrival and introduced her dog to ours. She kept us updated during the day by sending us photos of how our pup was doing. We would definitely use Lauren again when visiting Albuquerque.”
About: Hi there, I'm a stay at home mom who has always loved animals. Before having kids I was a groomer and kennel technician. Growing up I always had pets. Dogs, cats, lizards, gerbils, snakes, fish, pigs, horses, birds..i'm probably forgetting a few lol. I was the weird kid, saving every bug or animal around that was in danger. I'm very compassionate and empathetic. I was a very gentle groomer. I'd be happy to take care of your grooming needs as well although I dont have all the equipment..i can trim/dremmel nails, clean ears, sanitary shave, trim around the eyes, bathe and such. I have no problem administering medication. My kids are great with animals as well and love to help out. We have dogs and a cat of our own but your pets are welcome to have a room for themself if they stay over or they can join the pack! If we seem like a good fit for yall, lets chat! We are pretty much always at our home, if not at the park or out running errands. We can work around your schedule, no problem! We live on acreage, although not fenced. Leash walking is not an issue and we can take them to the back of the property to run around as well! We have 4 dogs of our own so we know how to manage a pack.
“Melissa and her sweet family took such great care of my high energy dog. Not only did she send a ton of adorable pictures of the pack exercising & snuggling, but from the moment she greeted my dog, I could tell she was in good hands. I definitely will be using her services again, my dog came home super tired and looked so happy throughout the day! Thank you Melissa!”
“Jamie was very friendly and communicated with me during the stay. She has young kids in the home for playtime with my small dog along with a friendly poodle of her own.”
“Holly and Robert were fantastic! They responded quickly, took him last minute and they had other dogs that my dog loved playing with. I will be going to them again.”
“My first time here on Rover and we had a great experience. Thank you so much! I’m so happy I found Leslie & James. The dogs were in great hands and I felt reassured they will be cared for from the get go.”
“This was my first opportunity to use Rover and I had a great experience and so did my Luna. I could really tell Bonni loved pets and took great care to ensure my Luna had a great experience. Thank you so much!”
About: Welcome to personalized care for your beloved furry friends! As a dedicated dog sitter (or cats,bunny,guinea pigs, birds, you name it!) I offer more than just sitting; I provide a tail-wagging experience filled with love, attention, and playful adventures. With a keen eye for each pup's needs and a passion for creating a safe and joyful environment. I'll ensure your dog feels right at home when you can't be there. Let's make their time away from home an unforgettable tail-wagging adventure! Jumping into experience and home life: I have taken care of pets, dogs specifically, since I was 9 years old. I am currently a stay at home mommy to my son (3 years old) and to our 3 bundles of joy. I love animals so much. They are more than just a pet or an animal, they are family. I will take care of yours with soft and gentle arms, as if they were my own. I do not professionally train, although both of my dogs are very good at what I have taught, (tricks and such). I also have no problems administering medications. I want to provide you a stress free getaway while know your babies are safe and sound. I will always send daily photos and/or videos of how your babies are adjusting to their stay. Our household is me, my fiance, our son and our three dogs. All of which will care for your babies just as much. I love that Rover allows us to provide personable stays to allow 1x1 tailored time with your pet that eases a lot of stress for everyone. I own an at home dog grooming kit which includes a dog vacuum that combs them while taking out the excess fur. Let me know if you need any deshedding services! My availability is totally available everyday! I work from home so I’m here on call for sure! If you are in need of drop-in visits, my fiance does come along for meet and greets and occasional visits as well. In both my home and my client's homes, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for pets. This includes maintaining a consistent feeding and exercise schedule tailored to each pets needs. I ensure plenty of playtime and mental stimulation through interactive toys and games. Additionally, I maintain cleanliness by regularly cleaning feeding areas, litter boxes, and any pet messes promptly. Above all, I provide affectionate companionship and attentive care to make sure pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.
“My dog absolutely loved it at Cindy's house!! It's my first time using rover so I was a little nervous but Cindy went above and beyond! You can tell she really loves dogs and knows what she's doing. I definitely recommend!”
“Josie, her husband, and Paco took great care of my Pip while we were vacationing in ABQ. Having Pip go over to her house allowed us to get some hikes, bike rides, and brunches in without having to worry is our young, energetic dog was being destructive or bored at the Airbnb. Highly recommend, and will definitely request Josie again when we return.”
“Melinda was very interested in getting to know our dog. She asked a lot of questions about his behavior, his personality, his normal day, etc. She was very concerned about making our dog feel like he was as much at home as possible. Peso seemed very happy when we went to pick him up. We would definitively recommend Melinda for dog sitting. She was quick to respond to messages, and she sent us a picture of Peso. We would use Melinda again if we are visiting Albuquerque in the future.”
“Mark, did an amazing job with our first timers. He checked with us frequently and it seemed our dogs loved it and where comfortable with him. For our dogs, it was there first time at another persons home and for us as well. Marks, patience was and understanding was greatly appreciated.”
“In all my years of using dog sitters, no one has come close to Peter in terms of the care and love my dog received from him. Peter sent the best pictures throughout the day, and I was jealous of how much fun they were having. , He really did treat Bug like his own dog. I think my dog almost likes him better than me.”
“Tracy was incredibly kind and caring with our fur baby, she was very responsive and sent lots of pictures during her stay. Also super flexible! Our pup loved Tracy!”
About: I have lived with at least 2 dogs in my household for the past 20 years. Providing them with the opportunities to live fulfilling and healthy lives has been my priority. Although I am their caregiver, I consider them also to be my teachers. Learning how to communicate with them is the best way to ensure they are happy and calm, and that they feel safe. I am currently retired and spend quite a bit of time at the dog park. My dog and I are mostly inseparable. I take him with me to run errands when I can. It isn't always practical and so he minds the house when I am away. Barney is my only companion, and, even though I'm kind of a loner, Barney is NOT. He is extremely friendly and social and craves the company of other dog;, that factors into my decision to care for other dogs in my home. Barney will help me keep your dog comfortable and happy while in our care. We have a fenced back yard (4 foot). The surrounding properties have no dogs at this time. If your dog can jump a 4 foot fence, this may not be the safest home for him or her.
“Always amazing! Punnarai is caring and attentive. My pup is excited to be dropped off and (sadly for me) tentative to leave the fun environment she creates for him while he’s there. Definitely recommend.”
“Toast had the best day at daycare with Kathy and the crew! She took the time to make my slow to warm up pup feel right at home. I really appreciated the pupdates thought out the day and the fact she got to go out on a hike (a favorite activity of hers). Would definitely recommend and Toast can’t wait for her next adventure day!”

About: I have professional experience caring for dogs and cats from my time as an Animal Handler at an animal shelter. I’m skilled in feeding, walking, enrichment, and recognizing animal behavior, and I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and dependable care. I treat every pet like family and always prioritize their comfort and well-being. With a part-time work schedule, I have the availability and flexibility to prioritize pet care in my daily routine. This allows me to be attentive to pets’ needs, maintain routines, and provide dependable care and companionship.

With animal handling training from working at an animal shelter, I’m skilled at reading body language and recognizing stress or behavioral cues. I take a calm, patient approach to help pets feel safe, build trust, and maintain a clean, positive environment where they can relax and feel cared for.
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, and am passionate about our furry relatives who need gentle and/or care-ful patience and attention. I’m experienced with small to large breeds, leash training, and rescues in need of extra love. Every animal has their own personality/quirks, and I take time to build trust and make them feel safe, in whatever this may be. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, or cuddle time, I treat every furry friend as a family member 🐶💛🎃🐈⬛ I am a part-time student so I will have lots of time to keep them on their routines and daily activities! I am available any day of the week with flexible hours. I am excited to keep a daily/weekly schedule with my regulars! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. This is something I take very seriously. I follow all instructions carefully, use secure leashes and harnesses, and maintain a calm, loving environment. Anything else you need, I can do it.

I treat every home and pet with the respect and attention they deserve because that is what I would want for my baby.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals as I lived on a farm for a good chunk of my life. I will do the best that I can do to take care of your furry one! I am working full time and I am also a student, but I make sure all pets are taken care of first no matter what. I do live in an apartment by myself with another small dog and cat. They are great with other animals and we have a big backyard to sunbathe roam around in. Anything you may need done in your own home, I can most certainly do too.
About: Now serving the greater Albuquerque Area! To all of my Utah clients, I miss your pups 💜 I moved to Albuquerque in September 2023. When I moved to Utah, by myself, in January 2023, I got lonely and craved animal connection, so I began with Rover. It has been such a great thing in my life. I hope to continue my services in New Mexico. I now have 2 pups of my own, but my partner cares for them when I am sitting. I will never bring them to a sit unless prior meeting and permission of the owners. Bloopers and Scub are young, big, lover boys with a lot of energy. They LOVE other dogs. Sophie, my senior pup, had to be put down before I moved to Utah. I cared for her heart and kidney failure for 3 years. I am experienced with senior pups and can handle all the way down to puppies, too. I love cats. I am also a trained bird handler. I have pet sit for my professors and coworkers before, from hunting lab puppies to senior Maltese. Since moving to Utah at the beginning of the year, I have house sat, done drop-ins, and walks. I have house sat for all kinds of pups from labs to yorkies, goldendoodles to bulldogs. I work a very flexible full-time, telework option, job. I can check/walk in morning, lunch, dinner and through the night if needed. Week days and weekends. I have extensive experience giving pets drugs and other heath needs. I can do any form of exercise or travel needed. I will always double check doors are locked and secured.
About: I don’t really have any restrictions on what I can handle, I’m used to taking care of elderly dogs, and having to cater to specialized diets or even mobility issues. But I have also cared for very energetic puppies, and middle-age dogs who just need to get out of the house or have a little companionship. I am a student athlete however, I do tend to have a lot of free time in the midday to afternoon range and on the weekends. I have two other very friendly dogs, and a large fenced in yard that is also close to a lot of other walking paths and parks. There is also plenty of space in my house in order to for dogs to be kept separately if they are not friendly, or cater to other needs such as crates.
About: Growing up in a household with pets, I grew to understand them. Not only have I been around cats and dogs, I have also House sat for neighbors, friends, and family and looked after horses, bunnies, chickens, and birds. My main goal is to make sure they are living a happy and healthy life. I am currently working graveyards, but wanting to make pet sitting a full time job. Anywhere from 6am to 6pm I am free to house sit. I live in an apartment, my cat has free range of the place. In clients homes, they have fenced backyards, doggy doors to go in and out as they please. Some will have specific feeding routines I will stick to as in their pets eating in different rooms, or preparing their meals differently. I will play with them if they're in the mood and be active with them outside to release any sort of energy they have.
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats and am confident in providing attentive, reliable care. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being, and I strive to provide dependable care so owners can feel confident while they are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I currently care for two kittens and a puppy, so my schedule includes feeding, playtime, walks, training, and cleaning throughout the day. Because I’m used to balancing the different needs of young pets, I’m organized, attentive, and consistent with routines. This makes it easy for me to provide reliable, high-quality care for additional pets during the week. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision, regular feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I follow established routines and provide age-appropriate care, including training support for puppies and enrichment for kittens. In a client’s home, I respect their space and closely follow all care instructions to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. This includes feeding, walks, litter box or waste cleanup, playtime, medication if needed, and regular updates to owners. My goal is to maintain consistency, reduce stress, and ensure each pet feels secure and well cared for.
About: I have owned a dog since I was 5, and cats shorty after. I have always been a huge animal lover and have owned my own dog throughout the years. Currently, I have a 13 year old Boston Terrier/Boxer mix and a 1 year old cat. But my love doesn't stop with them! I love taking care of any furry friend & have for many years. How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine? I work from home so I have the ability to tailor my schedule to fit every need! We are home most of the time so our babies are indoor pets! We allow our dog to sit on the couch and sleep in the bed for maximum cuddles! Furry friends with more rules will abide by those (no secret couch sits) but will still receive all the love and attention they need. Walks are given with playtime for the most stimulation.

“My dog’s second overnight stay with Karen in 3 months and it’s his home away from home. I almost feel bad bringing him home. Karen’s place is like a doggy’s dream. She sends home a review about the animal’s stay and even a bag of gourmet doggy treats! I feel 100% at ease when Riley is with Karen. I look foreword to his next visit!”
“Bubba was a happy pup during his stay and Miranda was great with communication and updates on our Bubs. He seemed very happy when we picked him up! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Miranda!!!! 😊”
“Another successful stay with Cecilia and Dan! This time, when I was getting Buddy’s things together to go over there, I told him he was going to see them, and he got super-excited and ran to the door repeatedly! He even jumped in the car before it was time for us to head over there! Pretty safe to say that Buddy loves being with them, and that makes us happy!”
“Cheri was great!! She gave Dax time to get used to her house before introducing him to her precious dog. She sent pics and updated me when I picked Dax up. I was running late and she was very gracious about that.”
“My biggest grudge is when someone expresses when they only gave one star " cuz they couldn't give any less"... When do we support local business and recognize our community for the good that surrounds us? !!! Recognize beauty people!!!!! This man is the real thing; a dog whisperer through and through. Incredibly kind, greeting my pup with a treat at first meet. Communication is HUGE for me. Pics were shared - almost immediately - and direct messages were alleviating. We all want to know our loved ones are in the best care. Michael is communicative, engaging with the guests, and truly, one of a kind. I'd book him immediately, if he doesn't forget my little girl...”
“Thomas, Matthew and George cordially welcomed my fur baby into their home. I was provided with updates and photos during my pups stay. I will definitely book another stay in the near future.”
“Jamie did an excellent job dog-sitting! She was very communicative, kind, and responsible. She took excellent care of our dog and we would use her again and recommend her highly.”
“Cindy was great with our three dogs while we were out of town. She is experienced and overall everything seems to have gone very well! She communicated regularly with us and was very flexible. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Savannah took really good care of Maple. She was patient, understanding of her unique needs and helped fixed a nutrient problem we didn't realize was an issue. Maple came back "smiling" with the zoomies. We will definitely be using her again!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone, so we were a little nervous—but Jamie made the whole experience incredibly easy and reassuring. She was wonderful from the start and even set up a play date beforehand so we could make sure it was a good fit, which we really appreciated. Drop-off and pickup were both smooth and hassle-free, and during the stay we received regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. It was clear our dog was well cared for and happy the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and would absolutely trust Jamie again in the future.”
About: I grew up around dogs ages 1-13 and have spent 3 years taking care of other dogs. I'm experienced in providing medication, cleaning up after them, and preparing food. I'm always ready to hear what your dog needs! I am a current student at UNM, and I have a part-time job. I am always home in the evenings, and have time to come home and make sure your animal is well fed, and all needs are met! I also have enough time to pklay with your pet and make them feel loved. I have a fenced-in yard and live right next to a park that we can walk to and play at so they get all their energy out. I will also make sure your pet is safe and comfortable, and do everything in my power to make sure they are having the same relaxing vacation as you! I love going on walks and playing with animals, so no matter where we are, they will have a great time!
“I recently boarded my dog for the first time in the 2 years that I’ve had her. Melissa was very flexible with pickup/dropoff and kept me updated daily with pictures of my pup having the time of her life! Couldn’t be happier! Thank you Melissa!”
“Joshua has a great way about him and the big yard/environment felt right for my pup. When I was away Joshua’s photos gave me relief that my dog was having a great time. Will definitely go back!”
“Holly & Robert were great. This was my first time boarding with them and I couldn’t be happier. Great communication and response time. Updates and pictures. I felt my Labradoodle was in good hands. Would definitely recommend.”
“Emily and her family were absolutely wonderful with Mr. Elwood. She was incredibly communicative, providing daily photos and status updates that kept my mind at ease. When Mr. Elwood faced some minor challenges, Emily handled them with grace and expertise, ensuring he remained safe and happy throughout. I’m so grateful for their support during my business travels. Highly recommended!”
“Rachel was great. I was nervous to leave my new kitten as she was still very young, Rachel was knowledgeable and I felt safe leaving Bianca with her. She was very attentive to messages. Gave me updates and pictures everyday. Would definitely use her again if the need arose.”
“Debbie was great! Pick up and drop off were a breeze. Kept us at ease while away with pictures, quick responses to messages, and updates on our pooch. Would definitely recommend her to anyone going away and needing somewhere to keep their pet!”
“Vanessa is and Awesome Sitter! Such a caring animal lover. She was very flexible with my moving and logistics. We shuffled days a couple of times. Thank You So Much Vanessa”
“Celine was great with our dog Ellie. We were updated daily on how she was doing along with pictures! We will book Celine again in the future. Thank you!”
