Pet care experience

Your Furbaby’s New Bestie 💫

I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. I have petsitted a few times in Nicaragua, but the service was never as popular. I currently have a ten year old cocker spaniel named Leia, who you can see in my picture. I’m a proud dog friend and an aspiring cat friend as I haven’t had much experience with cats. However, I love animals (as long as they are not insects). I am one to pay close attention to pet body language, and I will make sure to provide the most comfort and love to your furbaby 💕

We're extremely happy with Claudia, she was amazing. From the moment we met in the Meet and Greet, we were able to see how she treated our Phoenix with so much love. She was very professional with all of her questions in regards to Phoenix care. She kept us updated during the stay. We definitely recommend Claudia and are very happy with her service.

I highly recommend Claudia for your pet service needs. I have my dog Alice with her for 3 months when I needed the most. Within those months she was very helpful, patience, caring, playful with my German Shepard. She loves all dogs big or small doesn’t matter your dog will be in good hands.

Claudia was so sweet and attentive with my big boy Bear he had such an amazing time staying with her! She always sent me pictures and updates throughout the day and made sure I felt that my fur baby was happy and safe. Will absolutely be rebooking with her again if the need ever arises in the future, thank you so much again!

My name is Numa I. Barquero, I am Claudia's younger brother. Across many years, I found my sister's personality and dedication admirable. Although, I found her love and compassion for animals far more admirable than just a professional's working traits. Ever since I was a little kid, she served as an example of how pure of a heart a person needs to watch over a pet. She knows the responsibility of feeding, tending to, and entertaining a pet. From the spoils, to the strict rules owners have, Claudia understands and knows what it is to have an animal friend, and more importantly a family member. From the smallest cats, to the biggest dogs, my sister knows every pet's worth. From the moment she wakes up, to the moment she falls asleep, the furry critter is always besides her. More than a caretaker, she is a friend of any animal out there.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m happy to provide any tools and help you acquire items for your pet. If you need me to pet-shop too, I will! I also have a car of my own, so there is no end to dog parks we can visit. I will go and stay at your home as much as you need in order to care for your pet. Everybody at home adores pets.

A typical day

One of my favorite things to do with a fur baby is cuddle. However, it is very fun to me to take pets on a walk, or simply play with them and roll around in the floor. If there’s any possibility, I also love teaching dogs new tricks to impress their humans 👀

I am very serious about pet care, so I need to know the following: 1. Is your baby potty trained? 2. Is your baby allowed on furniture? 3. Is your baby taking any medicine? 4. What kind of food is your baby allowed to eat and do they have any specific allergies? 5. Do they get along with other dogs? 6. Do they have an issue walking upstairs? 7. Do they have a fear of something? 8. Are there any funny behaviors or particular fun facts about your baby? 9. Are they allowed to eat treats? 10. Would you like me to give them a bath, trim their nails, or de-shed their hair?
