Cecilia can care for
Availability
Generally, I’m open for pet care during holidays and summer time. I structure my days around giving your pet a routine that alleviates the anxiety brought on by the sudden absence of their person/family by sticking to what’s familiar to them. Once they’re comfortable (and if it’s appropriate) I’ll add some surprise adventures.

About Cecilia A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to stick to a routine with lots of opportunities for play, training re-enforcement, and downtime as needed. I’m very observant of what animals tell you through their behavior and I look for activities and solutions in a way that fosters their trust.
Information Cecilia A. would like to know about your pet
Vaccine records, whether he/she is spayed/neutered, any reactive behaviors to look out for/specific triggers, food allergies, name and location of vet, incontinence issues, mobility issues or injuries.
A typical day
I love exploring residential neighborhoods with dogs, especially when they know the area well and can show me all their favorite places to sniff and play. For dogs with great recall, I love hitting the trails in the East Bay Regional Parks. On hot days nothing’s nicer than a splash at the beach!

Stellar pet sitting & dog walking!
Pet care experience
Over 10 years of experience volunteering at rescues and shelters in the Bay Area and overseas. From 2015 to 2017, I worked at a busy local veterinary hospital as Kennel Supervisor. In June 2019, I became Pet First-Aid and CPR certified. I take a gentle-is-best approach to animal care, achieving lots of success with positive re-enforcement behavior correction. I've also developed lots of great problem solving techniques for animals that dislike taking medications or have grooming anxiety. I believe that exercise is a great way for pets to reduce anxiety and keep them focused on the fun stuff; running, sniffing, fetching, playing! When an animal is very attached to their comfort zone, I look for ways to gently motivate them. At the moment I have full availability
Reviews
Very communicative and friendly! All requests taken care of this evening.
I've been using Cecilia for over a year now and she always goes above and beyond in taking care of my kitty!
Cecilia was great. She was very thorough and asked a lot of good questions during our meet and greet. She house sat for us and our dog seemed content and the house was left spotless!
Cecilia was great! Slippers was well cared for and I will definitely reach out again when I need a sitter.
