Safety, trust & environment

For walks and drop-ins, I always focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and relaxed. During walks, I go at their pace — whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer adventure to burn off energy. For drop-ins, I make sure they’re fed, get some playtime, and enjoy a little company before I leave. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine and personality, so they feel comfortable and cared for even when their family’s away. Every visit ends with a happy tail and a few extra belly rubs!

Information Genaro S. would like to know about your pet

Before a visit or walk, I like to know a few key things to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable — their daily routine, favorite activities, and any quirks or fears (like loud noises or other dogs). It’s also helpful to know about their energy level, leash habits, and any medical needs or medications. The more I know, the better I can make their time happy and stress-free!

A typical day

I love keeping things fun and active! For dogs, that might mean walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, or a good game of tug-of-war. For the more laid-back pets, I’m all about gentle play, belly rubs, and just hanging out for company. I always match their energy level and make sure they get the attention and fun they deserve!

Certified vet asst & pet lover

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Genaro! I’m a certified veterinary assistant with over 10 years of experience working in animal shelters and animal control. During that time, I worked with both Missouri City Animal Control and BARC (Houston Animal Control), where I cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve always had a passion for animals and believe in treating them with kindness, patience, and respect — not like those goofy dog catchers you see on TV, haha! Over the years, I’ve handled everything from shy rescues to energetic pups, and I know how to keep pets calm, happy, and safe. I also spent time working at a dog hotel, where I coordinated doggy day camps, walked dogs, and helped administer medicine when needed. These experiences taught me how to read animal behavior, provide comfort, and give every pet the attention they deserve. I may not work in a shelter anymore, but caring for animals will always be a big part of who I am. I’d love the chance to meet your furry friend and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away! 🐶🐾

Genaro took great care of my dog while we were out of town. He is very reliable and our dog seems to like him, so we are comfortable with him taking care of her.
