Information Javier R. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if a dog is cautious of strangers, and if so, what the right approach would be in order to make the dog feel safe. I'd also like to know how the dog interacts with other dogs, since there are bound to be many other dogs out on walks as well. If a dog has any special preferences or needs, I'll do my best to accommodate them.

A typical day

I have an immense affection for dogs as well as cats, so I'm willing to do what it takes to make sure they are getting the absolute best care. I regularly go on walks on my own all the time, so it's always nice to have a furry companion to go on walks with! If they have any toys, I'll always make time for play and send you some funny videos.

Pet care experience

Took my grandparents' dog, Nacho, out for exercise every summer for 7 years. Cared for two cats during a period of about 2 years, including feeding, litter disposal, medication administration, and trips to the vet. Cared for my sister's pet goldendoodle, Wilson, for 2 weeks, during which I walked him 3 times a day and was in charge of preparing his meals. Been taking care of dogs for friends, family and clients for around 8 years.

Javier was phenomenal! He took care of our two cats for five days overnight and we could not be happier with how everything went. His communication was amazing. He consistently sent us pictures and videos, and kept us updated on everything that came up. It gave us total peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. We’ll definitely be booking him again in the future. Thank you so much, Javier!

Javier came to take care of our pup Leo. It was a great experience from start to finish. He was super communicative and responsive beforehand and took great care of Leo. He seemed to really enjoy his time with him. I would recommend him to my friends and family anytime. Thanks Javier!
