Grew up with a dog before siblings.

Pet care experience

Hello pet parents, I am here to tell you why I’m a great choice for a pet sitter/walker. When I was 10, my family moved from Mexico to California. I was an only child at the time before my brother was born. I felt very lonely at the time but that all changed when on my way back home from school, I found this little chihuahua puppy outside the school while waiting for my mom. The puppy was not well. She seemed sick and malnourished. I took her home in my backpack. I barely knew English but I made a friend who didn’t have to understand my language barrier and loved me since we first met. We named her Angela. Today, she still lives with my parents since I joined the navy and couldn’t bring her with me. She is 10 years old. Ever since then, my family adopted a border collie, Labrador and a German Shepard. They have a huge yard and house to be able to provide all the love and care for these beautiful large breeds. One day when I own a home of my own, I will do the same. I think it’s safe to say we love dogs.

Delia was very kind and sweet. She sent me updates and pictures about my dog. He really enjoyed being with her. He has smiles in every picture. I trust her and would definitely book again.

She’s taken care of family dogs in the past and even her own senior chihuahua. She has a lot of experience and patience for dogs. Any dog she looks after will be very well taken care of and in good hands.

Delia has been very good with my pets! She's caring, reliable, and goes above and beyond to ensure they're happy. She’s attentive and loves animals:) I trust her with my pets and recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate caregiver.

Safety, trust & environment

I usually wake up at 8am and go on a run but if I don’t I start cooking breakfast. My husband goes to work and I stay at home to take care of the house. I usually clean, do homework, watch tv, read, cook or go on walks by myself. At my parent’s home, exercise is provided for the big breeds daily and 3 meals as well along with their vitamins. The smaller senior dog is provided moderate exercise because she is a senior with heart problems and asthma. She gets softer food and her daily medicine and vitamins. She tends to rest a lot and we make sure to make her feel very comfortable. My home is very humble and we don’t smoke or drink.

Information Delia D. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know if a dog is in heat (both females and males) or if they have a medical condition. If senior dogs need special care I would like to know as well to better assist them.

A typical day

I will provide potty breaks, walks longer than 45 minutes to an hour, nap time (if needed), play time inside with toys, feeding time as instructed by the owner and 3 walks per day to avoid accidents.

I am currently a full time student. However, my classes are online and only on fridays. I am a veteran of the U.S. Navy that was honorably discharged with honors. I am getting my school and living expenses paid for. I do not work for the time being to seriously focus on school. This means I have a lot of free time to dedicate to these fur babies. I am a stay at home wife and home care taker. I have a lot of free time on my hands to tend to any needs a dog may have. They’ll more than likely won’t have to spend any time alone and if they do it will be while I do some grocery shopping or grab the mail. I don’t smoke or drink and neither does anybody else in my house hold.
