Experienced and Loving Pet Care Pro
Pet care experience
When I was 8 years old I volunteered at a local shelter, and it became my passion to love and care for animals. I went back on weekends, and it was always the time of my life. Just to make an animal feel happy, comfortable, and loved was and still is the best feeling to me. Since discovering my passion as a kid, I have followed that passion and have worked anywhere I can that lets me do what I love most. I have worked at a dog daycare- gaining invaluable experience on dog behavior, safety and play. I have walked dogs- gaining the street smarts and awareness needed to make it home safe and happy (and tired!). I have pet sit over 100 animals- paying attention to details for proper and customized care, and being a safe, fun, and friendly human for your pet to hang with. I have worked in a clinic setting- giving me knowledge on how to medicate animals and care for special needs pets. I can pill like a pro and can give insulin easily!
Reviews
Thanks Isabel! Isabel was great at communicating and gave Dallas plenty of activity during their walks. She really took the time to learn what works best for Dallas.
Isabel was fantastic! She was able to accommodate my last minute trip even though I'd never booked with her before, and I felt totally at ease knowing my old cat would be in good hands. Isabel's communication was great, she was super detail-oriented, and Dottie looked SO happy in all her photos. I'll definitely be seeking Isabel out the next time I need a sitter :)
Love Isabel's upbeat attitude, and Cooper really enjoys his walks with her.
Isabel is quick to communicate. My pup is very comfortable with her. Thank you!
About Isabel B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have one kitten who is a 6-month-old orange boy (He is the center of my universe). He is super friendly with other cats but is still unsure about dogs. He will hide from dogs with high energy which is why I would prefer to board other cats, and small/calm dogs. I also live in a (decently sized) studio apartment which I feel is best suited for *friendly* cats and small and/or elderly dogs. As for clients' homes I have been trusted to come and go with keys to lock up many times and with security systems. I'm a double, triple checker. I have never failed anyone with this- I am religious about safety for pets and for my home too and will treat your home with the same respect.

Information Isabel B. would like to know about your pet
It's important for me to know prior to BOARDING: -Is your pet is cat friendly? (Your pet *must* be friendly with a new cat they haven’t met before to boarding with me to ensure safety and comfort levels for your pet and my cat). -What is your pet's comfort in new environments and around new people? -Will your pet be comfortable with staying in a studio apartment that requires stairs or elevator? -Does your pet have any triggers for aggression or anxiety? -Are they special needs or do they take medication? -Is your pet potty trained? -Any behavioral quirks to expect? -What is your pet's energy level?
A typical day
My partner and I love to hang out with and spoil the pets we pet sit. We don't have a dog of our own yet, so we really appreciate the dog time we can get. We love taking our boarding pups to parks, dog parks, on long walks and car rides. We may stop for pup cups and pop into the pet store for a special treat. Our goal is to keep them happy and comfortable. If your dog has any special requirements, we are always aware of that too.

I am currently 100% focused on Rover. I have walks from ~ 10-3pm each day so will be out of the house those hours focusing on my doggo friends. I can do drop ins AMs and PMs. For boarding, I am able to be home outside of my other services. My partner is usually home most days, so can help as needed with potty breaks and feeding when I’m not there.
