“I thought Maellen was terrific. A few days before our cruise, Lili, our corgi had to be fitted with "the cone of shame" for a skin condition. I contacted Maellen to see if this would create a problem and offered to find another sitter but Maellen said it would be fine. She treated the skin condition twice a day took excellent care of Lili for the 7 day cruise. Lili obviously had a great time and was in excellent condition. She did not seem to be in a big hurry to leave so I know she liked it. THANK YOU, MAELLEN.”

“My dog Ariel had a very good stay at Mike’s. She is usually scared of men and prone to separation anxiety. She felt right at home with Mike!

“This was the ideal home for my 13-year-old boy Dimitri to spend the holidays (if it couldn’t be with our family). Alli and her family (including her husband, 3 daughters, and 2 sweet doggies) gave Dimitri lots of love and comfort. He was excited to see us pick him up, but I could tell he was going to miss spending time with them. As sad as I was to leave him for Christmas, I couldn’t have asked for a better home for him to go to. I will definitely contact them again the next time we are going out of town!”

About: I've been caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and Macaws. I've also volunteered at bird reacues and animal shelters in both New Mexico and Iowa. I have experience in animal training and Im currently an at home student at CNM so I have plenty of time to entertain and care for your pet. I enjoy making pet care a full time part of my life. I have a large fenced in back yard perfect for safe running and playing. It's got a nice spacious grass lawn with pet safe plants. The inside is pet safe and proof for your animals safety.
“I can't say enough good things about my pup's stay with Pat! I picked him up healthy and happy and better socialized than before! I've had my 17lb nervous whippet for 4 months. I was a bit scared to leave him for the weekend... but this was the perfect fit. He got along great with Pat's 4 doggies, which I could tell through 2x/day text updates. She even let him sleep in her bed, which he loves to do! Thank you Pat! Bingo will be back soon to see you and your pups! And btw- Pat is a lovely person- gentle, knowledgeable, flexible and kind... exactly the person you'd want caring for your furry friend.”

About: "I've taken care of dog's and cats of every kind i have fostered through the city of Albuquerque for years and have my own dog's and cats.

I will take care of your fur baby as if was my own. I will listen to every detail you tell me and make sure it gets done and give your fur baby lots of love and pets.
“Brandi is so nice and caring with her dogs and was the same with my dog, Buttercup. She helped make the introductions between Buttercup and her dogs go smoothly by slowly letting them meet each other. She sends pictures and updates throughout the day to keep you updated on the fun times your dog is having. Buttercup had a great time playing with Charlie and Jasmine. I was very reassured when I dropped Buttercup off and was very happy when I picked her up and saw how happy she was. Would definitely recommend Brandi to anyone looking for a safe, fun dog sitting experience.”
“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.”
“Cecilia and family were very kind and understanding of Buffalo’s insecurity being left behind. Her dogs were very kind with my dog and had no issues. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures that reassured me that Buffalo was comfortable and safe.”
“I was visiting town and needed a last-minute dog daycare option, and she was fantastic. She was very responsive and took the time to meet me and my pup beforehand, which made me feel comfortable right away. My pup was tired from the day and all the activities, but she handled her with both care and confidence. She quickly became part of the pack, played with the other dogs, and came back happily exhausted. She also sent photos and text updates, which I really appreciated. I especially liked how attentive she was with my pup’s prescribed medication. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was safe, cared for, and having a great time while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Arysta is a godsend! She understands dogs and is a true "dog whisperer." Whenever I need to board my puppy somewhere I know he'll be safe and with someone I know is dependable, Arysta has my full confidence.”
