Dog's lover

I'm a European Spanish native, born and raised in a farmhouse, and I've been surrounded by animals since my early years. I naturally adapt to their needs, whether it involves energetic runs, long walks, or simply heading to the park for some playtime. My schedule's wide open, and I absolutely adore dogs. I'm all about giving them love and building a solid bond. Let me know when your furry friend needs some company!

Ruby had another great stay with Barbara. She was recovering from a minor paw injury and Barbara let us up to date with her progress and was even able to get my pooch to wear a protective boot during their outings.

If Ruby could talk, I know she would tell me she had the BEST time with Barbara and Mel. From coordinating drop off times, to regular communication and picture updates, Barbara kept me in the loop with how my girl was settling in. I appreciated her responsiveness and thoughtfulness around caring for the special needs of a vizsla. Mel is very well trained, enthusiastic and super generous to share her space with Ruby. I hope Ruby can stay with them in the future!

Barbara was great with Dilla! Lot's of updates/photos to let us know Dilla was in good hands. She is an experienced and intuitive sitter and dog mom. Her dog Mel was good with Dilla, as well. Our dog came home happy. Thank you!

Barbara does such an amazing job with our Nala. I am sure that she is being well cared for and loved at her home! I never worry about Nala when she's with Barb!

Safety, trust & environment

We reside in a townhouse with a backyard for our dogs to enjoy outdoor time. Our outgoing dog is super friendly and loves to play and run with other furry friends. Our Vizsla enjoys being indoors, next to the window, watching outsde as well as she loves outdoors activites. Nevertheless, we're always open to adjusting to the preferences of your lovely pet.

Pets

A typical day

We wake up at 7:30 and head outside for a morning bathroom break. The first thing we do is have breakfast. At 9:00, we go for a walk, typically lasting one hour. Upon returning home, if we've behaved well, we're rewarded with a dental stick. Throughout the day, we stay indoors, venturing into the garden every one or two hours, occasionally sunbathing. At 16:00, we go for our second walk, lasting about 1 hour. Dinner is at 19:00, and my mom brushes my teeth

She is very active, but at home, she is very calm. She enjoys taking long naps, sunbathing, and watching out the window. She doesn't like to be alone; if you're at home, she'll always be with you
