All Creatures Need Love and Care

Pet care experience

If there is one thing you need to know about me, it's that pets are my passion. I have taken care of pets for years, during my childhood I sought out the company of animals and cared for the neighborhood dogs. A pet is more comfortable in its home environment, which is why I provide care in your home! When their owner is away, dogs can be confused and a little sad. It's my job to ease their anxiety, and spend time with them. No matter if their day consists of walks, playing in the yard or just belly rubs, I am there for them. Your dog is your family and I know it's hard to leave your family member when you're going on vacation. I'm also happy to water plants, take out trash, do whatever you need to keep your home running. I pride myself on being very personable and will do everything I can to make your vacation less worrisome. I am usually available to be with your pet all day/night long. Unless I have an appointment, or have scheduled dog walks with regular clients. I can play with your Fur Babies, either go on walks or throw a ball, Frisbee, rope etc. Can cook for dogs if needed, bath them if needed, change dressing if needed, oral meds. or shots if needed. My job is too make the animal relaxed and happy!!

Such a caring person; for my dog ECHO, and for taking care of her while I worked many days in a row with long hours. She took ECHO on long walks and play dates. She took care to water the plants and give treats to a shy kitty, Nutmeg, as she passes by. Hope to have her help out very soon.

Barbara did a great job taking care of our three dogs and also watching our house. She did everything we asked and kept us updated on what was going on. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous about leaving our dogs but Barbara made us feel comfortable and at ease. We would definitely request her again.

Barbara was awesome! She did a couple drop in visits for my pup while we were at Disneyland. She was very responsive and adjusted to my changes in schedule. Highly recommend!

Information Barbara R. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds, from Yorkies to Great Danes, and everything in-between. I need to know if they have any allergies, or hip problems, temperament with other dogs, sleeping, eating arrangements and potty times.

A typical day

I am an avid walker, if they live near parks or dog beach, that's where we will go for our outings! Whatever your dog wants to fetch, I will throw: balls, frisbees and even sticks . I have also cared for our older furry friends, am experienced in giving meds, and helping those who need extra attention during potty breaks because of bad hips.
