Pet care experience

Walks, Wags and Snuggles 🐶

Hi! I'm a college student with a lifelong love for animals. I have a sweet cat named Penny. She’s truly the light of my life and I treat every pet I care for with the same love and attention I give her. I'm currently a student at UNCW, finishing my degree after transferring in. Even with a busy academic life, I’m committed to continuing what I love most: caring for pets! I offer dog walking, feeding, and pet sitting services—and the same care extends to cats too! I have several years of experience from working summers with a dog-walking business back in California during high school and early college. It was one of the most rewarding jobs I’ve ever had, and it taught me how to read animal behavior, stay reliable, and make every visit fun and safe. You can count on me to care for your furry family members like they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s hands and I’ll make sure they’re loved, safe, and happy every step of the way.

I have a small pug that enjoys Cecilia’s company! My husband and I travel a lot for work so we constantly need a dog sitter. Cecilia is very professional and loving towards our Coco. We have had Cecilia stay at our house as well as had her take Coco to her place. She is truly amazing! I would recommend to others.

Great pet sitter! Would definitely recommend to others. She's always on time and prepared. I have a pit bull named Mia and she loves going on walks with Cecilia! Cecilia has been walking Mia for over a year now and we've enjoyed having her ever since the beginning. My dog was a rescue and came from an abusive home and didn't do well with strangers. Which made me nervous in getting a pet sitter, but after a few hours of introduction Mia was all over Cecilia and they're the best of friends. Cecilia really took the time to get to know her and work with her!

Cecilia is extremely caring, dedicated and trustful person. My dog Conan loved going on walks with her. She is organized and reliable person always attending to Conan's needs, making sure he had everything he needed. I never once worried about my dog as I knew he was always in good hands with her. Without a doubt the best dog walker/sitter I've ever hired.

Cecilia is the best dog walker I ever hired for my dog Oscar. He usually doesn’t get comfortable around strangers and easily as he did with Cecilia. She’s friendly, responsible and very reliable. She always responded to my messages and calls in a timely manner, and she was always there to answer any questions or concerns I had about our business together with Oscar. Could not have asked for a better person to help take care of my little furry baby.

Cecilia V is great with pets. She is an awesome pet sitter and a loving friend towards my dog. She understood all his needs. Not only is she a very responsible person but also reliable. She is gentle and caring being both an animal lover and great dog caregiver! I would recommend her to those seeking a dog walker or dog caregiver.
