Pet care experience

Trusted Care, Happy Tails 🐶

I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. Back in Colombia, I worked at a foundation for 4 years where I cared for around 40 dogs every day. During COVID, I rescued several sweet pups and made them part of my family. Now that I’m living in the United States, I’ve been lucky to spend the past 3 years caring for dogs—going on fun walks, feeding, providing overnight care when needed, and of course, giving them all the love and attention they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and trust. I always make sure your furry friend feels secure and loved, whether in my home or yours. In your home, I follow your routines closely—feeding on schedule, keeping fresh water available, and maintaining the environment your pet is used to. I’m careful with doors, gates, and surroundings to ensure your pet is always safe. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm and cozy space where they can feel at ease. I keep the environment clean, secure, and full of love, with plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles depending on their needs.

Schedule

I’m a photographer and usually work on weekends, which means I have plenty of free time during the week to dedicate to caring for your furry loved one. I truly enjoy spending my days walking, playing, and giving pets all the love and attention they deserve. Having a flexible schedule allows me to be there for your pup whenever you need, whether it’s for daily walks, feeding, or simply keeping them company.

I like to know as much as possible about your pet so I can give them the best care and make them feel comfortable. Please let me know if your cat or dog has: • Any medical conditions, allergies, or needs special medication 💊 • Specific feeding routines or favorite treats 🥣 • Particular fears, triggers, or dislikes (like loud noises or other animals) 😺🐶 • Preferred playtime activities or exercise level 🏃‍♀️ • Any behavioral quirks or boundaries I should respect (for example, if they don’t like being picked up or have a favorite safe spot) 💚 The more I know about their routine and personality, the happier and more relaxed they’ll be while you’re away!
