About Agustina V.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a cat at home so I am used to cleaning litter, plates and feeding. I grew up with dogs and in the last years I had two in an apartment, which was an adjustment for them. Taking care of their emotional health and their physical needs (walking three times a day) was of utmost importance to me.
Information Agustina V. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs/quirks or treatment. I know mine had some! Getting to know the pet is the best way to care for them.
A typical day
For dogs that are in apartment, playing ball inside is fun whilst permitted. If they need more movement I will take them out and play outside (with permission). For cats, a string, a hair tie, or a paper ball we will find ways to stimulate them. For all pets: lots of cuddles!

Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. Grew up with two golden retrievers for which I had the shared responsibility to care for with my siblings. I volunteered as a foster home for an animal shelter, having fostered +10 dogs with different ages and needs, nursing them to health, helping them socialize and handle their anxiety, getting them ready to find their forever home.
Cat care experience
Agustina also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Agustina was communicative and reliable with Rex these past few months. We really appreciated her flexibility and care with our furry best friend and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for some help with their pup.
Agustina is great to work with - kind and patient and took such good care of our dog Wayne, who is a big scaredy cat and needs a little extra patience!
I don’t usually write reviews but 100% Agustina is just incredible, the BEST dog walker we have ever had. We have a big floofy golden retriever who can be a big bundle of pulling, excited fun on walks - Agustina managed her with such ease and we felt so confident in her. She was reliable, always on a time and just an awesome friendly person. Kinda want to keep her a secret but all dogs deserve a walker like her!
Agustina is a trustworthy and loving pet carer. Her attention to detail is something you can always depend on, making sure all the pets need are met (medications, dietary restrictions and do/don’t according to the pets personality). She feels compassion and love for animals as if they were a human friend. I saw first hand how she fostered scared rescued dogs with a rescue non profit organization and how she was patient and showed deep care for their wellbeing. Eventually all those fostered dogs found loving forever homes and learned how to trust people again. I would strongly recommend her for anyone needing a pet carer that will treat your pet with as much love and respect as it were their own.
