Pet care experience

I had dogs and cats growing up, and was the exclusive dog walker for the family. I enjoyed being the one who was active with the dog on walks and to get out energy when needed. Dog walking is more than just getting your dog outside. It's about making sure they feel safe, cared for, exercised, and happy while you’re away. I currently have multiple cats and love playing and cuddling with them on a daily basis. Each cat has a unique personality, so I can adapt to their mood at any given time. What sets me apart from pet sitters is the attention I give to each pet's individual needs, personality, and routine. I am reliable, patient, a good communicator, and make every interaction a positive experience, so both you and your pet (no matter how big or small) feel comfortable and confident. I look forward to caring for your pets!

Francisco is a great communicator. I felt relaxed knowing that Kobe was in good hands. Francisco would provide many updates and adjusted to my schedule. Kobe had so much fun and playtime with Francisco, I’d book again with him!

Francisco is a great help. I am a veterinarian and feel that he is very thorough and most importantly kind to the pets he sits. Having cats of his own with medical issues, he is observant and takes great care of them!
