Pet Sitting Westgate Vecinos

About: I have worked with pets in various capacities! I have worked at a veterinary clinic and a doggy daycare & grooming salon. My whole life, I’ve grown up with animals, mainly dogs as well as fish, turtles, birds, and cats. Through experience and research, I have come to gain knowledge of pet care. I love making sure I know how to care for our furry friends! I specialize in caring for the more marginalized pets. Large breeds, bully breeds, small dogs and cats of all walks of life! I am available full-time! Please feel free to message me to workout a schedule that fits for you but whatever you have in mind, I am most likely available! I am very flexible for whatever your schedule calls for. Depending on what you prefer, I can let your pup free roam or crate if needed. I love actively playing and cratering to the doggies needs. Reading pets behavioral and boundary needs is apart of my care so I make sure to give space or play and cuddle with them if that’s what they want, as well!

“I’m grateful for Rachel and her quick response time and availability, especially around the holidays. Thank you for loving our critters while we were away!”

About: I've grown up with animals my whole life, regularly assisting my mom with her own pet sitting jobs since I was about 14 years old and receiving my own clients when I became an adult. I have been employed at a local Animal Shelter since 2024, having gained lots of Fear Free handling and medicating experience with both dogs and cats. I also have 3 cats of my own and my roommate has 3 cats as well, with varying personalities/sensitivities. I have full availability on Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday, and work Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday with a set schedule from 8am-6pm. I do get an hour lunch so I can also make a quick visit during that time. I've learned Fear Free handling methods from my workplace, regularly practicing patience and reading a pet's body language to understand when they start to become uncomfortable. I will adjust to your pet's needs to make this time as comfortable as I can.

About: As a life long animal lover, I would enjoy getting to meet your fur babies. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I love going for walks, hiking and hanging out playing fetch! I am currently a part time student that enjoys being active and caring for animals. With my spare time I have enjoyed dog sitting and house sitting. While caring for your pets, I will make sure to follow your instructions carefully. You can be sure I’ll be giving them lots of love, attention, fresh water, exercise, and stick to their feeding schedule. Communication with you, pet owner is key to understanding what your pets need’s. I love to send pictures and updates!

“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was about 12 years old for my neighbors and family and friends. I’m experienced in house sitting, drop ins and dog walking. I also have experience in giving medication to animals and any other special instructions. I currently work full time at the airport Friday through mondays. But I always strive to work with your pets needs. I own two cats myself. I will follow instructions left for me on how to care for pets and check in continuously also uploading pictures of pets. I strive to always do my best and ensure your pets are taken care off

“It was a pleasure working with Amanda. She was here when she said she would be. Very prompt which was important due to the fact that our cat Speedy needs his meds at the same time each day. She cleaned up after feedings of wet food and sent pix of our boys, which was really nice to receive. I would recommend Amanda to friends and family. Thank you Amanda! ;o)”

About: I have taken care of pets for neighbors, friends, and teachers of mine! I also volunteered at Watermelon Mountain Ranch in high school. I would be honored to be chosen to take care of your companion! I am in the job market, so I am available when you need me! I can take your dog to the park or on a walk during your lunch, or even stay with them during the weekdays. I can carry out any instructions for care that are given. If your dog needs a lot of play and stimulation, I can accommodate! If your animal is low maintenance and prefers to cuddle on the coach, I can bring a book or watch a show.

“Greg has done several drop ins including one at the very last minute. He is 100% reliable and I completely trust that he will be here when he says he will be here. The dogs appear comfortable and relaxed around him. Thank you Greg!”

“Kim took such great care of our giant fur babies! She showed up on time and gave them all of the love and care they could possibly want. I will hire her again for future trips”

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.

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!

About: I have always been around dogs my whole life, I currently have two fur babies of my own. I have a lot of love for dogs in general, and I would love to take care of your baby as well. I currently work in the mornings, I am available after 3 PM until 10 PM. I am also available all day on weekends if needed. I have experience with larger dogs making it easier to be able to restrain and crate a dog if needed. I am able to accommodate all sizes to offer a comfortable experience for any dog.
