“Lucy was amazing! I knew my pup would have a rough time with separation anxiety but she was patient and loving with him and filled me in along the way. She took great care of the house and my fur baby so I could just enjoy the time away. Will definitely use her in the future. Thank you Lucy!”
“I was very hesitant to have a stranger stay at our home with our girls….much less a stranger that I found on the internet. After reading Tracy’s profile, I felt that she was best suited for our girls and boy was I right! She took the time during our meet and greet to talk with me and get to know our girls. Throughout our trip she gave thorough updates and sent pictures to ensure everyone was good. We have a reactive dog and Tracy showed her grace and patience, and with her knowledge and experience she was a friend not foe by the end. We have always put off trips that come up because of the dogs and never feeling comfortable with anyone staying with them. This is definitely not the case anymore now that we have established a relationship with Tracy. I would recommend her a million times.”
“Rachel was amazing with my little dog and house. She sent updates, photos, and Lizzy appeared very comfortable with her. I would definitely work with Rachel again.”
“Isa was extraordinary with my 4yr old Bernese. She took him for car rides and hiked with him. He was an incredibly tired pup by the time I came home. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for an attentive dog sitter.”
“We were away for 23 days on a long road trip, and our sitter did an amazing job taking care of our dogs while we were gone. She was responsible and communicative. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us during such a long trip. Highly recommend!”
“Stop looking! This is the only pet sitter you will ever need. She is absolutely amazing! We have a dog that requires special care with certain things and Savanah could not have been better! She is constantly sending pictures and updates!! You can really tell she has a love for animals that few people have. She also cared for the house and for the dog as if they were her own. I hope she is available for all my future bookings. Thanks again for everything Savanah, you were amazing!”
About: I have five cats and a lizard at the moment. We have also had many dogs boarding with us in our home for the last three years. I will be starting college in the fall and need some part time flexible work to meet college expenses. With college classes I will have the flexibility to take great care of people's furry friends. I will exclusively visit pets in their own homes. I have a flexible schedule due to college classes. I am also available for house sitting.
“Martina jumped in literally in the hours before I was leaving as my other sitter cancelled very last minute. Martina was attentive to all the needs of my very elderly cat, gave him his meds, cared for him as if her own. She left my house in really good condition and tidy/clean after an 11-day stay!”
About: I have 10 years of experience as a vet tech. I have cared for all age ranges in cats and dogs and I have no issues with giving medications and most medical issues. I have been doing pet sitting since I started vet teching 10 years ago! I’ve done check-ins, walks, overnights, and day care for friends, family’s, clients at work, and neighbors! I am free all day to stay at your house Saturday-Monday but work 10 hour days Tuesday-Friday so would not be able to check in for potty break other than lunch break on those days. I currently work at a speciality veterinary hospital in ABQ from Tuesday through Friday until about 6pm! Can’t wait to meet your fur babies and given them all the love! I have a fenced yard with lots of trees and shading. Two playful dogs who love ball and being outside and lots of places to explore in my backyard.
About: I have had pets ever since I was 3 years old, I am now 19 and have lots of experience with taking care of them. I have also trained my dogs with the basics like, potty training, any tricks, simple house training etc. I am very experienced to take wonderful care of your fur babies and their needs. With my own pets I take care of them morning to night. I am home most of the time so I do spend time with them a lot but when I do leave my house I make sure they went outside before leaving and have plenty of water and food while I am gone. I always walk the dogs, follow any instructions that's given to me for the dogs care, eating habits, wash days, times to go out, and everyday I play with my own dogs keeping them active running around the yard and having plenty of toys. I also tidy up the house, sometimes with our fur babies the house can be a mess with toys all over and them shedding all the time so I can to provide that for you.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have a dog named Scrappy who inspired my passion for pet care. Through him, I’ve learned how to connect with dogs of all temperaments and understand their body language, needs, and routines. I have experience with basic puppy training (crate, potty, leash walking) as well as caring for senior dogs who need patience, gentle movement, and medication. I offer calm, one-on-one attention in a cozy environment that feels like home. Every dog I care for gets the same love and respect I give Scrappy. I just graduated high school, so I have lots of free time and a very flexible schedule! I work a part-time job with plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and weekends. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I love spending time with animals, whether it’s morning walks, playtime breaks, or cozy evenings in. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to adjust to your dog’s needs and schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs can feel safe and relaxed—no overcrowding, no chaos, just lots of love and attention. I’m careful with introductions, keep doors secure, and always supervise playtime. If I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely and treat your space with the same respect I give my own. I pay attention to details, give regular updates, and make sure your pup feels happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away.
