Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my client's homes with the utmost dedication and attention to their individual needs. I have experience with my family dog of 15 years, a puppy I rescued and gave to my sister, and a dog I rescued from the streets who has become the light of my life. I have walked and cared for all three by taking them on regular walks, adventures, and hikes, always advocating for their space and listening to their cues. I ensure they are fed high-quality food and treats and take them to the vet as needed. I also prioritize their safety and comfort by taking them out early in the morning and late at night to avoid the heat. My approach is rooted in love and respect, and I always aim to create a nurturing environment where they feel happy and secure.

Information Ines F. would like to know about your pet

Anything that helps me keep your dog comfortable, safe, and feeling at home is important to know ahead of time. This includes any medications, supplements, or health conditions, along with clear instructions for timing, dosage, and how your dog prefers to take them. If there are any allergies, sensitivities, or past injuries, that is also very helpful to share. I also love to know about your dog’s routine and preferences. Things like feeding schedule, favorite toys, energy level, sleep habits, and any quirks or triggers. For example, if they are nervous around certain noises, reactive on walks, or have specific comforts that help them settle. If there are any training cues, boundaries, or behaviors you are working on, I will always aim to reinforce those so your dog has consistency. The more I know, the better I can tailor their care to feel familiar, safe, and genuinely enjoyable for them while you are away.

A typical day

A typical day is built entirely around your dog’s personality, energy level, and what makes them feel happiest and most at ease. For active pups, that might look like long walks, playtime, enrichment games, and plenty of opportunities to explore and burn off energy. For more relaxed or senior dogs, the day is slower paced with cozy lounging, gentle walks, and lots of calm companionship. Throughout the day, I focus on keeping them engaged and emotionally comfortable with a mix of play, mental stimulation, and downtime. That can include things like sniff walks, puzzle toys, light training reinforcement, or simply spending quality time together so they feel safe and cared for. I also make sure to stick closely to your dog’s routine, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or preferred habits, so their day feels familiar and stress free while you’re away. Most importantly, your dog will get plenty of attention, affection, and one on one care. My goal is for them to feel relaxed, loved, and completely at home.

Pets

Experienced Dog Sitter for All Ages

Pet care experience

I have raised a puppy from 7 weeks old to 3.5 years old, and I also took care of my childhood 15 year old senior chocolate lab, giving me firsthand experience with the full spectrum of dog ages. I have spent time training my own dogs and learning about different training techniques, which I genuinely enjoy. My experience includes working with reactive dogs, and I believe in supporting owners without judgment. I am happy to work alongside them to manage and support pets' behavior. Additionally, I have experience administering medication to dogs, so I am comfortable and capable of handling any special medical needs your pet may have. My commitment to providing attentive, personalized care ensures that your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities! Use my promo code to get $20 off your first booking!

Ines did drop in visits with our new adult dog, Ducky, who was working on potty training. And also our other dog, Fievel. She followed the instructions on how to take both of our dogs out to potty in a way that was safe for the two of them! She gave detailed follow ups after each drop in

We cannot say enough amazing things about Ines! She watched both of our dogs and took absolutely immaculate care of our home while we were away. Communication was fantastic—we loved getting updates and the personalized daily photos, which gave us total peace of mind. Beyond just standard pet sitting, Ines went above and beyond by helping train our 1-year-old French Bulldog pup during her stay! It is so rare to find a sitter who is not only incredibly responsible with your home, but also possesses the genuine skill and patience to work on puppy training. We came home to very happy, well-behaved pups and a spotless house. We will absolutely be booking Ines again!

Ines has been helping with my pets for years. She handled 2 big dogs extremely well and took them on nice long walks. My dogs adored her and looked forward to her walks. I can highly recommend Ines.

I can’t recommend Inès highly enough as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely loving toward every animal she looks after. From the moment you meet her, it’s clear that she has a natural connection with pets and treats them as if they were her own. Inès is reliable and communicative, always keeping me updated and giving me peace of mind while I’m away whether by text/facetime/or photo. She pays close attention to each pet’s unique needs, routines, and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in her care. I trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate caregiver on Rover.
