Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a calm, secure, and loving environment where every dog and cat feels at home. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and I’m always attentive to your pet’s needs. You can trust that your furry family member will be cared for just as if they were my own
Information Alejandro H. would like to know about your pet
To give your dog the best care, please let me know these few things ahead of time: Socializing: Are they friendly with other dogs, and are they allowed to stop and meet them on walks? Leash behavior & triggers: Do they pull, or react to things like squirrels or loud noises? Energy & pace: Do they need a fast, energy-burning walk or a slow, easy stroll? Commands: What basic words do they know (like "sit" or "stay")? Allergies & treats: Any food sensitivities or strict diet rules I should follow?
A typical day
For me, a walk is more than just a quick bathroom break—I like to make it the best part of your dog’s day. We’ll get geared up at their pace, and once we're outside, I let them explore and sniff around to get some good mental stimulation. If your pup is high-energy, we’ll do a brisk, active walk to really burn off that extra steam. If they prefer to take things slow, we’ll just enjoy a nice, easy stroll. I'm always super alert to my surroundings, keeping a close eye on traffic and other dogs to make sure everything stays completely safe. Once we're back inside, I'll wipe their paws if it's messy out, fill up their water bowl, and give them a treat before they settle back down

Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Alejandro! I am a huge dog lover, and I would love to help look after your pup. I know firsthand that our dogs aren't just pets—they are family, and they deserve the same love, patience, and attention when you're away as they get when you're home. What I do & what to expect: When I watch your dog, I treat them like my own. Walks are about more than just a quick bathroom break; I like to make sure they get some good exercise, plenty of fresh air, and time to sniff around and explore. I am also really diligent about following your specific instructions. Whether your dog has a strict feeding schedule, rules they need to stick to, or just needs a lot of belly rubs, I've got it covered. And of course, I’ll send you regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing they are having a great time. My experience: My experience comes from raising my own dog: a super energetic, silly, and incredibly smart 13-month-old Siberian Husky. I’ve raised him since he was a puppy, which means I know exactly what goes into dog ownership from the ground up. I successfully potty trained him, taught him a bunch of fun tricks, and learned how to handle that classic, high-energy Husky personality. Because of him, I have a ton of patience, a great understanding of dog body language, and I know exactly how to keep active dogs safely entertained and happy. My schedule and availability Since I work remotely from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible. This is a huge plus for pet sitting because your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches of time. I am around during the day to offer constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and to keep their usual routine running smoothly. Whether you need a quick midday walk or a dedicated sitter while you’re out of town, my work-from-home setup makes it easy for me to give your pet the focused attention they need. I’d love to chat and see if I’m a good fit for your pup. Looking forward to meeting them!
