Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs, cats and other variuos animals since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to protect, feed, walk, and at times mildly train and play with them. I will take care of your pet and keep them company. Love outdoors and have 3 great parks near me.

I’ve had the pleasure of being a close friend with Douglas Santiago who takes care for my dogs and cats for 5 years when needed. He treats every pet as if they were his own—with patience, love, and genuine attention to their individual needs. He's dependable, responsible, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. You can trust him to provide excellent, loving care and give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands.

Santiago is a great Rover walker and sitter. He has watched my dog Royal with such good care and he loves his local park walks.
