About: I've had large dogs since I was born and when I was young I remember going outside and feeding them with my mom and giving them treats. Now I have two small dogs I've had for 10 years that I trained myself, they know pretty much every basic command plus some that are more advanced. I also groom them myself such as brushing and bathing. I love walking my dogs and getting out of the house and getting fresh air, it always tires them out so they can sleep throughout the night. I'm available full time since I left Amazon in Feb. I will be able to give dogs or cats my full attention all day and night. I can take them out for walks or even give them outdoor time in my yard. I'm new to pet sitting in-home but I'm sure I'll learn along the way. I have a fenced yard they can play in and a park is close by to play at. I don't crate my pets but I can crate yours if needed.

About: I have had dogs that I trained and took care of through the first 18 years of my life before I moved here to attend UNM. I occasionally watch my neighbors dog and helped train him when they were ill-equipped to do so. I am available all day on Saturday and Sunday. On Wednesday I have class from 10am-10:50am and 4:15pm-5:00pm so I am available between those times or after 5pm. I am available all day Friday after 1pm. On Tuesday and Thursday, I have class from 9:30am-10:45am and 2:00pm-3:15pm so I am available between those times and the rest of the day after 3:15pm. On Monday I have class from 10am-10:50am, 2pm-2:50pm, and 6:20pm-9:30pm so I am available between those times. this will update every semester. I only provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their normal environment and routine. I follow your instructions closely—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits your dog has. I make sure dogs get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. That includes regular walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. While staying in your home, I treat it with respect—keeping things clean, bringing in mail/packages, and making sure everything is secure. I’m reliable with timing and always show up when expected. I also send regular updates with photos so you know your pet is doing well and you don’t have to worry while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors animals all throughout college so I have lots of experience! I’m very nurturing and kind and I even have my own kitty that is very friendly. I have a flexible work schedule so I’m work from home most days. I love to go to the gym and go on walks. I am a home body so on the weekends I like to cook and prepare for the week. A typical day with your animal looks like playtime in the morning and a walk in the evening! If it’s a cat I make sure to play throughout the day and especially at night so they and I sleep well! If I am going to your home I will read and relax with them when I’m not playing with them and I will feed based on your schedule for your pet.

Benjamin was an awesome walker!! He was so accomodating to our chaotic situation (we're injured/sick at the moment) and handled our two girls who both have their quirks very well. Total lifesaver. Highly recommended.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for the last 7 years. I love house sitting and spending time cuddling with pups or playing outside with them. I have experience giving elder dogs medications or following detailed care instructions. I have a full-time job and work in the office Monday through Thursday. Otherwise, I’m available to be with your pup at home taking care of them. I’m familiar with crate training, as I crate my own dogs when I’m gone. I’m always happy to a walk through of how to lock things up and set up things to keep your fur babies safe. For walking, I’ve used harnesses and gentle leads.

About: I’ve house sited for friends and neighbors pets. I love all animals since I was little and I know it gets hard when people are busy to care for pets and I would love to help I’m currently working full time but I’m off on weekends and can even fit time to visit after work hours if needed. I have a pretty flexible schedule so anything that works around your schedule as well I will always provide a safe environment for all animals. I will respect their environment and love and play with them. Make sure they feel safe as well

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs since I 10. Anytime they went out of town, they called me to make sure to feed them or bring them over to my house while their gone. I work part time as server and the rest of the time I work and go to school at home, leaving me with plenty of time to be your furry friends companion. I have a little dog park at my apartment, as well as plenty of space to walk the dogs around my building. I also offer to take care of your animals at your home if that’s what you prefer.

About: I’ve spent many years making tails wag both professionally and personally! As a seasoned groomer, I’ve mastered the art of turning “ruff” days into paw-sitive experiences. Beyond the salon, I’m a devoted pet parent who knows that every whisker, paw, and wagging tail deserves love, attention, and care. From quick drop-ins to full pet sitting, I bring a “fur-tastic” mix of expertise, patience, and heart—ensuring your pets feel pampered, safe, and happily spoiled while you’re away. I am a dedicated animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets. While I work full-time, I make it a priority to ensure that every animal I care for receives attention, love, and responsible supervision. I understand that pets thrive on consistency and companionship, and I am committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment during every visit. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or extended pet sitting, I bring reliability, empathy, and a deep appreciation for animals to every interaction. Your pets will feel loved, secure, and happy under my care. A typical day for my pets starts with a hearty breakfast followed by some scheduled outdoor time to stretch, explore, and enjoy the fresh air. Throughout the day, I make sure they get attention, play, and care suited to their needs. The day winds down with an evening walk to burn off any extra energy, followed by a cozy cuddle session to relax and bond before bedtime. Every day is about keeping pets happy, healthy, and feeling loved from sunrise to snuggle time.

About: Hi! I’ve worked in professional pet care for over 14 years through Petco and PetSmart, where I gained extensive hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. While I’m not a certified trainer, I’ve completed multiple courses focused on dog behavior, handling, and training techniques. I’m especially comfortable with energetic dogs, shy or anxious pets, puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households. I also have experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs, including timid cats, high-energy cats, seniors, and cats that may need extra patience and attention while their owners are away. Safety, patience, and communication are extremely important to me. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure owners feel updated and comfortable while their pets are in my care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, overnight care, feeding, playtime, or just extra attention while you’re away, I’d love to help! I just moved to Albuquerque from Austin Texas and I am currently looking for jobs right now so I am available anytime for your pets needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone in both your home and with your pets. I care for my own senior cat with patience, consistency, and close attention to comfort and routine, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I watch. I believe pets feel safest when their normal routine is respected, so I always take the time to learn their preferences, personalities, and needs. Whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, medication, feeding schedules, or simply giving them space to feel comfortable, I treat every animal with kindness and respect. My goal is to make your pets feel secure and cared for while giving you peace of mind that your home and animals are being looked after responsibly and compassionately.

Kristle did an awesome job checking on and walking both my dogs together. Both of them are strong and my younger dog can be a challenge. She communicates well and sent me pictures. She went above and beyond what I asked. I will certainly be asking her to walk my dogs in the future!

We were looking for a trustworthy, dependable walker for our rambunctious dog and Melissa fits the bill! She seems like a genuinely good person who our dog just adores. It's hard to let a stranger handle your beloved pets. Your friend is in good hands with Melissa! We'll continue to use her for daily walks.

About: I’m a biggg animal lover, a vegan of 10 years, former animal shelter worker & doggy foster mom🤍 a few years ago, I rescued my dog, Blue. Working with trainers for my own dog has deepened my commitment to positive reinforcement and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I’m a full-time registered nurse, so I’m confident administering medications and managing special care routines. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes—from tiny companions to giant breeds—and I take the time to learn each dog’s quirks, preferences, and sensitivities to make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood. I live in an apartment with plenty of outdoor time, including long walks and play sessions, and I’m happy to help with feeding, training, and care. I currently only work 3 days a week, so I’m usually free the rest of my days off. I’m pretty flexible on scheduling things if you have any last minute needs. I work night shift, so if your dog is fine being left alone overnight let me know and I can board longer than my listed days! I have a pet cam to keep an eye on them overnight. Dog walking/drop-ins: I can come to your home, feed your pup breakfast/dinner, take them out for a quick potty break, play time, or go on a super long walk to tire them out! I’d love to know your dog’s routine, likes/dislikes, an level of energy! Doggy day care: Your dog can hang with me & mine for the day! Guaranteed fun times, cuddles, walks! I love making my space a welcoming & calm environment. I consider myself active, so if your dog is up for adventures/hikes, let me know! Your dog must be house trained & friendly with other dogs. Boarding: If your dog is being boarded with me, they’ll need to be friendly with other dogs, including my playful pup and occasionally my roommate’s small Shih Tzu-Yorkie mix. They also must be dropped off with a crate. I want to make sure they are safe & happy!
