Experienced Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi Everyone! My name is Celina and I have been pet sitting for 9 years (6+ years on Rover). I’m also a fellow pet parent of two rescues: Algodón- a 60 lb, male lab-husky mix & and Oliver - a 13 lb male, Chinese crested mix. I love dogs and promise to treat your pets as my own! I know what it’s like to want your pets exquisitely taken care of when you’re away which is why I follow instructions to a T, send lots of updates, and give pets lots of affection ! I’m the daugter of a vet tech who spent 3 years in her mom’s pet sitting business and 1 year volunteering at Beacon Animal Rescue so have lots of experience with different dogs :) I’m very patient, flexible, communicative and active, so am very able to play with and keep up with any young or super energetic pets! I also enjoy down time so can spend time with older pets who may need medication/experience incontinence. I have two dogs in a small apartment so cannot currently sit in my own home but am happy to sit in your home for a day or more. I can sleep over or do multiple check ins if your pets has anxiety or could use the company! Can’t wait to meet you & your fur babies!

Celina was great! She was super communicative, took lots of photos, and gave regular updates. Felt my pups were safe & well cared for under her supervision. Would definitely book again!

Celina went above and beyond with our dog who had a broken foot. Even before the dog sitting began she made sure to ask great questions and came for an in person meet and greet which made us feel really comfortable having her stay in our home. She gave tons of updates which really made us feel at ease while we were away. Celina left our place spotless. Would definitely recommend!

Could not have asked for a more attentive, lovely pet sitter. Celina asked all the right questions, was so sweet with our girls from the start, and we came home to them feeling well loved and taken-care of.

Information Celina A. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I am not accepting aggressive dogs at this time/dogs that snap/bite humans whether that’s past or presently. I would like to know feeding and walking schedule, if your pet is friendly with other people and animals. Are they leash reactive? Are there medication/health needs? i.e. Do they like dogs their size but not smaller/bigger dogs? Does your pet have any fears? i.e. Loud noises/anxiety? Will your dog stop eating when full or must food not be left out at all times?

A typical day

We have a a lot of fun! I play fetch, tug of war, and chase. One time I literally just ran around for 20 minutes while the dog chased me to distract him while his owners left lol I enjoy long walks with pups and am good about avoiding other dogs if needed. The dogs I spend time with seem to really like the scratches, rubs, and massages I usually provide too.
