Pets favorite sleepover spot!

Pet care experience

I have been an animal lover since the beginning of time! I have always loved and respected animals and nature. It’s always been a culture in our home growing up. As an adult, I had a couple corporate jobs, but there was always something missing. I found myself being my happiest self whenever I was with my pets or taking care of other animals. Thankfully during Covid I was laid off, and left to find my REAL passion in life. I decided I wanted to work with animals full time, and so I did! I have never been happier! Working with animals has been my favorite job and I will never want to not work with pets. I have experience working with dozens of different breeds, & ages of cats and dogs. I am knowledgeable in pet safety and dog cpr. I have thousands of hours of training experience working with different pets before I became a full time pet nanny! This is not just a “job” for me, this is my passion, I enjoy being with pets and animals, I enjoy being a pet caretaker.

Azucena was wonderful with our dog Mochi! She sent regular updates and obviously provided excellent care for our girl during her 9-day stay, including plenty of long walks and outdoor time and a comfortable bed. We are grateful!

This was our second time leaving our pup with Azucena and one again it was a great experience. Azucena had regular updates for us and sent us some our favorite photos of our beagle buddy. He can be skittish in new places and around other dogs and has come back from other boardings looking a little spooked, but he always comes back from a stay with Azucena his normal goofy self. We're so grateful to have someone we can really trust with our fuzzy pal.

Our senior dog LOVES Azucena! We always receive great photos and updates of their weekly walks together. Azucena is punctual, communicative, and reliable. She handles our dog’s health needs and reactivity expertly. Highly recommend!

We are so thankful for Azucena! Penelope obviously loved her stay and the daily updates and loads of pictures gave us peace of mind! On top of it all, she was incredibly flexible after we had some delays with our pickup. Cannot recommend her enough!

Pets in my care become my family while the owners are away. I have dedicated my home to being a pet friendly place. We also have nice trails and nature nearby I would love to take your pet to! I am going to treat your pet just like I would mines. If they make a mess on the floor, I’ll take care of it. If they want to snuggle, I'll cuddle and pet them with no doubt. If I'm going over your home to walk your dog and see your Amazon package on the doorsteps, I’ll bring it inside! And best of all, your pet will be in the best care possible. You will love my daily pics and summaries, providing you with a daily peace as you enjoy your vacay! I also have all the supplies, beds, bowls, toys etc

Information Azucena Y. would like to know about your pet

I would love to get to know your pet before bookings! We can do an in-person Meet & Greet outside in a public area, or a Video call if you would like to see inside my home. I would like to know a few things about your pet so I can provide the best support. Does your pet have any special needs or accommodations? What does your pet love to do the most? What do they usually avoid? Thank you!

A typical day

A typical day in my care involves your furry friend waking up to a warm cozy loving environment. As I am a full time Pet Nanny, I will be home for most of the day to give your pet the attention and company they deserve. I do take the time to make everyday special! We will get lots of outdoor time if the weather permits, if not we will still get to play some active games indoors. I take pride in treating pets as if they were my own children. They get hungry they get bored they get annoyed just like we do. Book with a professional Pet Nanny such as myself, to ensure the best quality care for your pet! My years of experience working with different pets has given me the wisdom to be able to read pet behaviors and understand them. You have an anxious dog? Don't worry we will take it easy, and move at their pace. Have a dog with lots of energy? Great, we can go for a run! Have a senior dog with some disabilities? Paw-some! Bring granny over and she can relax on my orthopedic dog beds. I can ensure your pet will enjoy their sleepovers here each time! Do them a treat by taking them to me! They will feel like they are on vacation too! Spacing is limited so I can provide the best individual care.
