Safety, trust & environment

I live at home with my family along with two pups and a cat. Our entire house is fenced and we have an indoor gate as well. I am pretty proficient at reading/sensing a dogs body language from having pets all of my life and from currently working as a pet sitter. So far, I have taken a course provided at one of the pit sitting companies in how to become a kick ass pet sitter. However, I will be attending a dog’s body language course occurring this month along with other courses occurring this year provided by the other pet sitting company. With that said, you can rest assured that I have will efficiently have more skills and knowledge when it comes to caring for your beloved pet.

Information Abril A. would like to know about your pet

Please do share any of your fur babies needs so that I can execute the appropriate treatment for them, to ensure that they are safe and happy under my care. Provide me their habits, what their behavior and activity levels are like. As well as their age, breed, medical history and any special behavioral needs.

A typical day

What dog doesn’t enjoy going on walks. Walks are definitely a must to get their exercise going and to soak up some sun? Especially on nice days, a long walk is necessary in my book. Can also take your pup out to the dog park if prohibited by the client. Toys are definitely a must to play with your pet to spending time with them. If your pet enjoys watching TV, I’ll definitely throw on a cartoon, movie or whatever they love to watch and we’ll enjoy each other’s company while watching it. Whatever you and your pet love to do together, please share it so I can provide them those same fun activities!

Pet care experience

I’ve had animals all of my life since I was an infant. They’e ranged from chickens, cows, dogs and cats of course. So I have always had and will have empathy for fur babies. I am a very sentimental person when it comes the vulnerable. I definitely go above and beyond, especially when it pertains to animals and my jobs expectations. For example, I contribute too many non-profits and signing online petitions as my way of giving back to the world. I am a wildlife conservationist in the making. I have a bachelors in criminal justice, however, in the pursuit of continuing my education related to wildlife conservation and natural resources. I am also both proficient and fluent in Spanish if needed to translate. I have many years in customer service; specifically, in the restaurant and bar industry. My ability to interact with all walks of life, has prepared me to connect with people on various levels. It has inspired me to be a great listener, it has humbled me, and importantly, it has helped me create great relationships throughout the years. I began my pet sitting journey a few months, so I don’t have a whole lot of experience working with animals. I’ve orchestrated a couple of Sub Qs to a cat that I recently pet sat, so that’s something worth telling. I will provide the best care and love that I can give to your fury friend. Interacting with animals can be unpredictable and challenging, but it is definitely therapeutic, rewarding and a fulfilling feeling. As a pet sitter, I am granted the opportunity to create beautiful bonds with the animals overtime, as I help provide care for them which can also be bittersweet.

I've known Abril Arellano for five years and I have always found her to be professional, responsible and thoughtful. Professional when it comes to doing her work in the way it has to be done and making sure tasks are completed on time. Responsible in the sense of handling her duties and meeting assigned deadlines. And thoughtful in the way she deals with colleagues at work and also with other people she interacts with. She is exactly the kind of young professional you want working as a pet caregiver for Rover.
