Dog Walking in Wells Park, Albuquerque

About: I have had cats and dogs around since I was a child. I have been boarding for almost 2 years, and walking/doing check-ins for nearly 8 years. I started out doing walks to help fill my want for pets. But now that I have two of my own, I realized this is something I really love doing and it is always a joy to meet other peoples' fur babies. In my home, I do have one other dog who LOVES to play and gets along with every animal and human he meets. I have a scaredy cat, and a handful of kiddos who I have taught animal etiquette to since they were all babies. We have cared for the smallest dogs to the largest. We have had older dogs, puppies, dogs recovering from surgery, and females in heat (although not at the moment until our puppy is fixed). We love your babies like they are our own, and love to be able to take them with us if we ever go on any adventures while they are here (of course, with permission!) I am a stay at home mom, so I am home the majority of the day to care for any animals in my home. My kids are AMAZING with animals, as I have taught lots of animal etiquette over the years caring for animals -- and now that we have our own fur babies too. In my home, we just treat your fur babies like one of our own. We give them lots of attention, play time, walk time, etc. I also incorporate your schedules with ours (ie feeding, etc). If there are any special requests, I fulfill those needs. When I go to a clients home, I respect everything around me and be as gentle and careful as to make sure that the fur babies are comfortable with me in their home.

“Greg has met with Sasha for a meet and greet, then the next day for a 60 minute walk. My Sasha came home exhausted and happy! Looking forward to doing more business with Greg.”

“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.”

Candace R.

“Rachel is prompt and easy to talk to. She pays attention and was really great with our dogs, who are a handful to walk. We will be booking her for pet sitting this month for sure.”

“Justine is a gem! She was so patient with our pup Cava who struggles with stranger danger. She took extra time letting Cava come to her and warm up to her before taking her for a walk. Justine was respectful and kind. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a child I am very capable at taking care of animals with love. I've had animals that were old, young, and animals that have had health issues. I feed and brush my cat 2 times a day. Play with him for a couple hours a day. Him and I sit on the roof together and stargaze. I always make sure pets have access to water, food (when needed) and to using the bathroom. I always approach animals with sensitivity, patience, kindness, and fun.

“It's been a pleasure working with Eden and having her stop by. I always look forward to the updates and she is very kind and gentle with my puppy.”

“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! ”

About: For over 14 years, I cared for two deeply loved dogs - Charlie and Indiana - through every stage of their lives, including special diets, medications, and the realities of aging. I’ve handled everything from leash pulling to pet reactivity, separation anxiety to senior care, and understand how unique each animal’s needs can be. Since losing both of them, I’ve felt the pull to keep sharing that care. I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet - it brings peace when you’re away. I’ve been that person for family and friends for years, and I’d be honored to be that for you, too. In addition to providing a fun and safe environment, I have two goals when pet sitting: 1. Providing care that feels like home, even when you’re away 2. Becoming your pet’s second favorite person! I work remotely with a relatively flexible schedule. I will be home with your pet the entire workday, making walks, potty breaks and snuggles easy! I can typically cater the rest of my schedule to your pet’s needs as well. They’re the priority when I’m sitting ❤️ I know how important it is to give each pet the unique care they need. Following your care instructions and preferences is my guarantee. No matter your pet’s age, size or needs, they will be safe, snuggled and secure in the way that suits them best.

About: Now serving the greater Albuquerque Area! To all of my Utah clients, I miss your pups 💜 I moved to Albuquerque in September 2023. When I moved to Utah, by myself, in January 2023, I got lonely and craved animal connection, so I began with Rover. It has been such a great thing in my life. I hope to continue my services in New Mexico. I now have 2 pups of my own, but my partner cares for them when I am sitting. I will never bring them to a sit unless prior meeting and permission of the owners. Bloopers and Scub are young, big, lover boys with a lot of energy. They LOVE other dogs. Sophie, my senior pup, had to be put down before I moved to Utah. I cared for her heart and kidney failure for 3 years. I am experienced with senior pups and can handle all the way down to puppies, too. I love cats. I am also a trained bird handler. I have pet sit for my professors and coworkers before, from hunting lab puppies to senior Maltese. Since moving to Utah at the beginning of the year, I have house sat, done drop-ins, and walks. I have house sat for all kinds of pups from labs to yorkies, goldendoodles to bulldogs. I work a very flexible full-time, telework option, job. I can check/walk in morning, lunch, dinner and through the night if needed. Week days and weekends. I have extensive experience giving pets drugs and other heath needs. I can do any form of exercise or travel needed. I will always double check doors are locked and secured.

About: I've had my own cats and dogs since I was a baby. Also recently had farmhand experience working with farm animals. I can do it all! I'm currently available on the weekends to meet all of your animals needs or weekdays if you are in my area! Message me any time or day. Happy to help! Look forward to hearing from you :) Willing and able to follow all rules and show the utmost respect to you, your space, and most importantly your animals. Your babies your rules!

“Margaret is hands down the best, most reliable and caring sitter I’ve encountered thus far! Thank you for giving me such a sigh of relief that you’re taking care of Willow just how I would! Fantastic!”

You’ll never have to worry about your pet getting the absolute best care and everything your loved one needs.

I have worked in animal shelters and regularly care for my friends and families pets when they need along with a long history of fostering and rehabilitating pets of all kinds. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own. Currently I do not provide in home services due to the fact of having a senior dog of my own. But that also means I have experience with elderly animals and would take great care of yours!

I am very respectful and dedicated to my work and with my experience I am confident in being able to handle whatever your pets needs are and attentive to any situation or instructions you may have regarding your pet.

“Levi was extraordinarily sweet with my old, anxious dog. Ziggy adored him right away. Thank you, Levi!”

About: Lifelong dog ownership and running a dog walking business have taught me how to connect with pets of all kinds. I’ve learned to adapt to different temperaments and routines, and I’m especially comfortable with anxious or reactive dogs. I also grew up with a diabetic dog, so oral medication or injection administration is comfortable for me. I’m a full time student, but I don’t have a summer job, so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I’m available for daytime, evening, and weekend care. I focus on keeping the pet’s environment calm, safe, and familiar. I try to follow their routine closely and make sure they’re never stressed or in unfamiliar situations. I respect your space and your pet’s boundaries, and I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust.
