Pet care experience
Hey there! :D My name is Sandra. :) I used to have a super sweet pitbull named Oreo for about 9 years. He, unfortunately, passed away 6 years ago due to skin cancer. I live with my parents and the loss of Oreo broke their heart so much that I haven't been allowed to get another dog since. Rover allows me to enjoy the company of a dog that I miss from my sweet Oreo. I don’t have any pets and would love to help care for yours! I am a certified veterinary assistant. I also worked at Animal Medical Center on Camden for about 3 months. I loved every moment of that job! From assisting the veterinarian in giving vaccinations to providing medication and care to pets after their surgery. The reason I stopped working there was that I changed my major to Justice Studies. All my life I wanted to become a veterinarian but after taking a few biology courses I realized that it was a lot harder than I ever expected lol! I graduated from San Jose State with my bachelor's in Justice Studies in 2021. I currently work as a victim advocate full time Monday - Friday. I am available on weekends for any pet needs. I am extra cautious with every dog that I care for and treat them as if they were my own. I make sure to never take the leash off of your dog whenever outside. For extra measure I make sure to cross the street whenever an on coming dog approaches on walks. I allow dogs to sniff as much as they’d like on walks :). Even if it takes 30 minutes to get around the block.
Reviews
Sandra was amazing with our Rottweiler Matilda. She took the time to connect with her and kept her great company while we went out of town for a night. She treated Matilda like her own and sent us pictures and videos of them having a great time.
Two 🐾 up! Sandra is a great sitter! Dog sat our dog for 10 days and spoiled him beyond expectation. She sent updates on Chancho, and videos of him enjoying new treats. Will definitely book with Sandra again!
Sandra was such an awesome sitter! My pup is full energy and she tuckered him out good! I received lots of pictures and videos, and could see him happy! It definitely eased my mind that he was well taken care of. A plus is she saw he lost a baby canine! A great memory for all of us! A perk is he passed out asleep the first few minutes in the car on the way home. Thanks, Sandra!
Sandra took amazing care of our fur baby. We had to find a last minute sitter and Sandra was extremely professional and accommodating. She sent us many updates throughout our trip so we felt at ease knowing our pup was in good hands. Thank you for taking excellent care of Rusty!

I have a fenced front yard with a huge tree that provides plenty of shade, especially in the summer time. Even in an enclosed area I do like to leave the leash on your pet in case of any emergencies. Usually I prefer for dogs to sleep in a crate through out the night but apon request i can provide accommodations.

I love the outdoors and love going on runs! It’s always nice to have a running buddy. I also like to train dogs on new tricks on my spare time. I love Senior/ Older doggies:). I enjoy watching tv beside them and giving them the occasional pet ( unless they don’t like being pet. I totally understand! Doggies become grumps just like we do as we get older :)

I am available only on weekends ( Saturday and Sunday ) and Friday anytime after 5:30 PM. I enjoy watching dogs on the weekends because spending time with a furry animal brings me much joy after a stressful week at work. I really look forward to it. :)
