Safety, trust & environment

I cannot care for pets in my own home however when pet sitting in someone’s home, I can create the same structural environment that the pet parent creates for their fur baby. Making sure their pet is secured and safe and comfortable at all times.

Information Elisandro R. would like to know about your pet

I feel as though one should know about the dogs overall behavior. I’d like to know whether your dog is pet/people friendly, or if your dog reacts to strangers. I’d also want to know from what the pet parents have experienced, what their dog’s tell is; when the dog is letting you know they’re hungry, having to use the bathroom, anxious, etc. And one of the big things that’s a must for me is making sure i know if they have any allergies or underlying illnesses, genetic issues, any general health issues or concerns. With this, I’m given a better idea as to how I can have fun with your furry buddy in a safe and healthy space and manner.

A typical day

I am very much into stimulating a dog mentally as well as physically. I would find a controlled environment and let your dog enjoy their dogness. However if one has a structured training for their furry friend, I would follow such regimen accordingly.

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I could remember! Once my pups found their forever home with me, I wanted to give them constant stimulation both physical or mental. This creates such a strong trusting bond; seeing you pup happy ends up making you happy! And cats are absolutely perfect! So gentle and free! Independent yet always wanting love and affection. As long as you don’t exceed their kitty minutes/little limit, alls well! Working with animals in general gives me a sense of fulfillment and joy, making sure these innocent vessels continue their innocent journey in the happiest way possible. Can’t wait to experience the joy with your furry companion!

El was awesome. Great communication and photos of our pooch while we were away. And he even flagged something for a follow up vet visit so he was obviously paying great attention!

Elisandro was amazing!!!! I was so happy he was there, he did some light training with my dog too on walks and even made me little videos of how to help my dog. I would definitely hire him again anytime.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
