Safety, trust & environment

I usually observe the doggie to be more able to know about his/her needs. I notice any changes on his/her behavior or physical state to make sure everything is all right. We have a small backyard fenced, but I never let them out without my supervision. There's a lot of grassy space available for walks also and there's a park behind our house that your doggie is going to enjoy, so there's going to be plenty of potty breaks. I usually take them out three to four times.

Information Ines M. would like to know about your pet

IMPORTANT: I love every doggie breed but can NOT host aggressive, destructive dogs or those with unmanageable behavioral issues like growling at the sitter, snapping at her, impossible to manage when take him/her out to potty, etc. I don't have a backyard and it's important to take him/her out for potty breaks and allow me to put the harness on, so he/she doesn't have accidents inside the home (we have carpets). I don’t take dogs that need to potty during the night or have any major health issues. Also I don't take puppies. The basic things I need to know it's: walk and feed schedule, level of training, if she/he likes other dogs, where she/he likes to sleep and an emergency contact info. Must be potty trained. *IMPORTANT UPDATE: Due to the volume of requests for one night sittings, I may restrict stays to a 2 night minimum.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We usually walk around the neighborhood and there's a park behind our house that your dog is going to enjoy.

Deluxe sitting with a caring heart!

Pet care experience

Welcome to our doggie vacation house! Your pooch is going to receive an exceptional treatment and care. I'm very aware of their needs: good food, long walks, naps and happy times. I'm 100% committed with the health and happiness of your baby. I'm home full time also. She/He is going to be pampered with the best! About this sitter: I'm a dog lover! Your pooch is going to be in good hands. I'm a loving person, patient and respectful. Hope that I can help you with your pooch with success!!! Why I love dog sitting I'm a big dog lover since I was a child in Costa Rica. We always had dogs at our home and my parents taught me everything about a dog care since they are big dog lovers too. Since I moved here in USA I felt the need to have dogs, so I decided to become a dog sitter. I cannot have a dog for myself because my husband and I travel a lot. So I found that to become a sitter is a big blessing since I love so much dogs. Meet my pets We don't have any pets. About my yard We have a small backyard fenced. There's a lot of grassy space available for walks and there's a park behind our house that your pooch is going to enjoy!

Ines is fantastic! She took such good care of our Shih Tzu! From the fist moment of contact, Ines responded to all communication so quickly. When we met for a visit, she was very professional, asking all the right questions, she clearly knows what she is talking about taking care of dogs. But most of all, Ines was taking care of our little one so well for the days we were gone, lots of walks, play and with genuine concern for our dogs well being. Did I mention the sweet pics and updates she sent us? No surprise that Ines gets all 5 star reviews. I also highly recommend her!

This was the first time leaving our fairly newly adopted dog with a sitter. Ines was wonderful with our temperamental Evie. She found unique, non-threatening ways of picking her up and Evie ended up being just fine with her. Ines was also diligent about sending regular updates and pictures every day to us. Would definitely recommend Ines!
