I will pet, cuddle and play with them as long as they enjoy it and of course are comfortable with it. Their health and safety are very important to me and I will communicate any concerns. I also ask clients to please make sure to completely fill out their pets Rover Profile and Emergency information.

Information Alma A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what their usual temperament is like? Are they friendly with other dogs, cats, other pets in the household, children, and adults? Any history of biting or attacking anyone or another animal? Any social anxieties or habits your pet may have? What is their usual activity level? How is their health? Any allergies or dietary restrictions? Are they trained? Also specifically for cats where their usual hiding spots are and any history of being an escape artist.

A typical day

I’ll be sure to give your pets treats and of course make sure to feed them and refill their water daily. We’ll play around with their favorite toys, cuddle and I’ll give them pets as long as they’re comfortable with it :)

Pet care experience

I love animals 😍 I have an 8 year old cat named Teddy 🐈 and he’s my baby. I have been pet sitting for over 10 years and I really enjoy my job and care about your pets. Your pet will be treated like my own with the utmost care and attention. I am a reliable, trustworthy, fun, and caring person with experience caring for different types and sizes of pets. I will follow any specific instruction your pet needs. Their happiness and well being is very important to me and I'll make sure to do whatever is necessary to ensure that. I also take care of bunnies, guinea pigs, rodents, birds, fish, tarantulas, turtles, reptiles, amphibians and other exotic pets. I would love the opportunity to play with and care for your pet(s)! 😁

I couldn’t be happier with how well Alma takes care of our dogs when she visits with them.

Alma was absolutely wonderful with my boys, very caring and attentive. She even fielded my concerned, busybody neighbors, and made a few extra visits just to make sure they were doing well in my absence. Very experienced, professional, and I look forward to booking her again knowing I will be leaving my kitties in safe hands!!

Alma is truly incredible. Alma is my girls established walker, but went above and beyond with our first house sitting/overnight care. Alma is communicative, attentive, friendly, and I can tell she truly cares about my dog Zelda. Alma even extended her care to accommodate a flight cancellation followed by multiple delays. So grateful to have Alma in both my life and Zelda’s! 🐾
