Loving & Enthusiastic Petsitter

Pet care experience

My name is Alma and I have been a petsitter since 2013. I am an affectionate, enthusiastic caregiver with a track record of developing strong bonds with animals. I am conscientious, dedicated and attentive, and pride myself on my work, whatever it is I am doing. I work especially hard caring for animals because their well-being is very important to me and I connect with them deeply. I will take care of your house, leave it clean for you, and all the while, keep your dog or cat happy until you come home. Please contact me with any petsitting needs and we can talk further.

Home and pets were cared for; very grateful. Would have liked more reporting and pictures about activities, day to day.

Our active dog was happy and healthy and our casita was clean. When I reached out to see how things were going, Alma responded quickly.

Alma has the confidence and courage to take our very difficult dog on walks. She did not panic when they saw a mother bear and her cub on the Dale Ball trail near our house and quickly took a detour to avoid a confrontation with the bear. Thanks for your quick thinking, Alma!

Safety, trust & environment

I spend at least mornings and evenings with the animals, feeding and walking in the morning and at night, and in general spending a lot quality time with them. I make sure to show affection and bond with animals, letting them set boundaries and determine when they feel safe and comfortable.

Information Alma H. would like to know about your pet

Their personality, age, energy level, special needs, whether they get along with other dogs/ cats/ strangers/ children, any specific things you want me to know in order to care for your dog.

A typical day

Typically take dogs on two minimum 1-mile walks a day, depending on age and energy level of the dog. I have cared for puppies, young/adult dogs, and senior dogs, and they all have different needs. A young adult dog, for instance, might need to run a lot, and playing fetch or going hiking are great ways to get their energy out. A senior dog on the other hand needs more quiet one-on-one time and R&R.
