“We found Cassy kind of last minute, we have a five month old Golden named Chief that we needed boarded. Had a meet and greet that afternoon and took Chief over early the next morning. Cassy was up and ready for us, we got everything unloaded and Chief was ready for his big adventure. We received pictures, videos and updates everyday from her which put us at ease being as how it’s the first time we’ve left him. Cassy is obviously a lover of animals, she took great care of Chief and I'm sure he had a great time. When we picked him up he looked happy and healthy. We would highly recommend Cassy and will surely use her services again in the future.”
“Virginia was great as always with our three girls! Our oldest lab always gives us the cold shoulder when we pick her up from other sitters. It’s like she’s upset and punishing us for leaving her with someone else. This time, she was bouncing around and seemed so happy. Like she was saying “finally you found the right person to leave us with! I loved staying here!” So thank you so much Virginia and congrats on the new baby!”
“Rachel was amazing! She sent pictures and updates frequently, and she always responded quickly. She made me feel very comfortable using Rover for the first time. She really cared a lot about Mowgli’s comfort and well-being, as well as how I felt. Mowgli loved her and her dog. He got a lot of exercise, ate well, slept well, and seemed to have a great time. I highly recommend Rachel!!”
“Heather did such an amazing job with our dog, Bruno! It was such a relief to know that he was having so much fun and being so well cared for while we were gone. We were afraid that he wouldn't want to come back home! She also sent the most amazing pics of him for us to enjoy! Thank you so much! Bruno can't wait to stay again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Aztec
About: I’ve been caring for cats my entire life and understand that each one has their own personality, boundaries, and routine. I currently have a rescue cat and have experience with cats ranging from social and playful to shy and more independent. Since 2020, I’ve provided pet care professionally, including drop-in visits for cats with different needs and temperaments. I’m patient and respectful of each cat’s space, whether they want attention or prefer to keep their distance. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, administering medication when needed, and making sure your home stays clean and comfortable. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve always had love for every dog that I see, having a job that makes me see dogs everyday makes me happy. All types of dogs. I’m not currently employed, just in school right now so I will have more than enough time to play and care for your dogs whenever. I will follow all instructions that you will provide, I will message if anything is wrong. I’m very neat and clean in my own home and will be in yours.
“Samantha was available on a few hours notice. I appreciate that, and great updates on visits. My puppy chewed up paper towels and she was nice to pick it up. So grateful for her help.”
About: I have taken care of quite a few cats in my life. I have house sitting for multiple families with cats, well behaved and wild ones. I love cats because they mind their business and snuggle only when they want too. They are sassy and so much fun!
“As someone who is extremely particular about who I trust with my dogs, finding the right sitter felt like a daunting task. After coming across Leo's profile and seeing her glowing reviews, we decided to take a chance and schedule a meet and greet — and I'm so glad we did. From the moment Leo arrived, she put my mind completely at ease. She was professional, warm, and had an incredible way with my boys — they took to her almost instantly, which honestly said everything I needed to know. We went ahead and booked her, and she exceeded every expectation. She sent daily photo updates and kept me in the loop during each drop-in visit. Knowing my dogs were happy, safe, and well cared for made all the difference. I never once second-guessed my decision. We will absolutely be booking Leo again. If you're a pet parent who doesn't trust just anyone with your fur babies, look no further — Leo is the real deal!”
About: I’m a huge animal lover! I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life. I can go from medical needs, to play time, to caregiving.

I always make sure the animals have a calm environment, frequent potty trips, & lots of love! I love to play to get the energy out so there can be a calm house.
“Angel was so wonderful with my cats - she got them all to let her pet them even the outside cat! He won’t even barely let me pet him!! She left the house absolutely spotless- she had great communication with me while I was away. I HIGHLY recommend if you are in need of a pet sitter- you can tell she really loves animals”

“Leonor was a great sitter and friend to our pup Willie for a couple of days while we were visiting Bloomfield. Willie came e back happy and tired from all the excitement and exercise he got. We would certainly use Leonor again if we were in the area, she was friendly and communicative and flexible with our schedule.”

About: I have been working with animals since I was a child! I grew up on a farm with horses and our trusty yellow Labradors, learning from an early age the true meaning of taking care of others. I love providing dogs the happiest experience - I find such joy when playing, running, skiing, or hiking with dogs and seeing the BIG smile on their faces! Any pups that stay with me, my husband, and our goofy dog, Miles, will have a fantastic time, as well as guaranteed adventure (as appropriate!).

About: I have been house/pet sitting for a little over 4 years now. I currently have four different clients that I house sit for and all have animals. I have watched up to 6 dogs at a time before, all ranging from 20-200 pounds. I love to take them on walks and to play with them. I also have a 10 month kitten that loves to play, so I also have cat experience as well. I’m currently in school at San Juan College so when I’m not in class I will be with the animals. Most people would rather have a house/pet sitter then have to board their animals, plus it’s cheaper! If I sound like someone you would like around your animals and your house please feel free to contact me! Thank you!
