About: I have been taking care of my own dog and my friends' dogs for many years. I currently do not have a pet so I have lots of love to give to yours. I have experience will all sorts of dogs, large and small and in fact, cared for a 110 lb dog with physical disabilities for 13 years. Dogs staying in my home should be trained to stay off furniture. I was attacked by a Pit Bull and needed plastic surgery on my leg. For this reason, please understand that I will not care for dogs of this breed or any mix of the breed. I work from a home office and have plenty of time to play with your pup. I can stay at your house or bring your pup to mine. I do not invite dogs on the furniture in my house. The only other rule I have is to be happy. I have a yard that is partially fenced. Therefore, any pup staying with me will never be left alone outside. I live across the street from the university and any well socialized dog staying with me will enjoy going on walks and visiting with all the other dogs in the neighborhood.

About: Your dog will get lots of love from me and become part of the family. My home is large enough to accommodate your crate if you want to bring it. And there's a large fenced yard with lots to explore. My boy Riley likes to play and hang with most other dogs but our dogs should meet each other first to ensure a great dog sitting experience. Because of doing a meet and greet I need at least 2 days prior notice for care requests. I've watched friends' dogs and had my own since 1997. If your dog has special needs please let me know. I'm retired and home a lot. Your dogs will get lots of attention from me throughout the day. If I leave home without them I'm usually gone for an hour or so and the longest I would leave would be 3 hours or so. I have a large fenced yard and a dog door. I am attentive to each dog's particular needs and will be aware of what they are up to.

“Our two pets, dog and cat, fit right into this family and from the pictures we received regularly were gently and extremely well loved and cared for. Even her pets seemed to care about them! We’re so happy and grateful to have found Aida Janet and felt much less guilty about leaving our babies behind.”

About: I've taken care of cats since I can remember. I had my first cat care experience when I was 10 looking after my neighbor's 4 older indoor cats for two weeks while they were on vacation. I can care for both indoor/outdoor cats and indoor only cats of all ages and needs.

“Sonya is my lifeline! I have been traveling a lot lately to visit my grand babies and, without her and her quality care, I wouldn’t be able to go. Thank you Sonya!”

“Mayteana was professional and courteous. She made a connection with Cookie which is no small feat. We appreciated her punctuality and attention to Cookie's needs. We most definitely will request Mayteana for future trips. 🍪”

“Robin did an amazing job watching our cats while we were on vacation. She sent us lots of pictures & was super responsive. Our cats were also very comfortable with her right away. We would definitely book her again the future!”

About: We work closely with pet parents to provide updates daily about their furry babies. We feed, provided fresh water, walk, play, and give medice (if requested by owner). We are blessed to care for pets on a full-time basis! Therefore, the schedule is very flexible to provide your fur babies with the love and quality of care that they deserve, based on their needs. We have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in and and a spayed mix Pitbull (Luna) to keep your fur baby company. I have 2 kids between the ages of 15 and 16, who are animal lovers as well and are excited to welcome your pet into our home. Whether your pet would prefer to be a couch potato and relax with soft belly rubs or would like to run, romp, and play fetch, we are skilled to offer them a memorable experience.

“Aida was fantastic. She cleaned up after my messy cats and didn't bat an eye. Thankful to have someone responsible look after my kitties 😁”

“Fantastic experience! They accommodated my schedule adjustment and took great care of my buddy. 11/10. Highly recommend, will definitely rebook in the future.”

“Catherine took such good care of Kai! We told her he was very socialized so she and Kai evidently walked everywhere together. We felt so comfortable leaving Kai after meeting Catherine. We took a day trip to the Gila dwellings where no dogs are allowed on the trails. Catherine is very responsible and genuinely loves dogs.”

“Dogs were happy and lots of photos!”

“My girls felt right at home at Pamela‘s.”

About: Animals (cats, dogs, horses, hamsters, birds, snakes, etc) have been a major part of my everyday life since I can remember. I did 6 months of vet-tech training in 2016 before deciding that the medical industry was not for me, however, I did learn how to properly give medications (insulin, oral & topical medications, & IV fluids) to dogs and cats. I currently foster animals in need until they are adopted, so I'm familiar with caring for dogs & cats of all ages, stages, and needs. I'm currently self-employed and set my own hours, so I can work my schedule around your pet's needs. I keep the Rover calendar updated to my current availability. When it comes to caring for your pets, I make sure I keep their routines consistent whether it's in your home or while on walks around the neighborhood. If a medical or behavioral issue arises, I will inform you in a timely manner. I can provide picture and service updates regularly.

“Always fantastic! Thanks!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 8 years old. I was primarily surrounded by cats, and learned how to care for them from birth until they found their forever homes. I have also been pet sitting and house sitting in Silver City for several years, watching both cats and dogs (and even some tortoises!) for friends, family, and community members. As a cat owner and dog lover, I understand the importance of quality care and compassion that our fur babies require. I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Biology and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). I only take 1-2 classes a semester, and am trying to pay for my education out of pocket. Pet care can and has easily fit into my class schedule, and working more often with local folks is something I have been wanting to do for years. I love Silver City and the animals that live here, and I would love to help with animal care here since I see how much folks love their fur babies. I live downtown in a busy area, and it has provided endless enrichment for my baby kitty cat. I live nearby multiple parks and walkable areas that I can take your puppy for some exercise. When I am in a clients home, I follow their instructions for their baby, since each one is different and have their own personalities.
