Spending time with animals is healing in a way, sometimes just hanging out with my cat or my fish makes a difference in my day! I like to go on runs in the morning every other day and I love going for walks

I try to give them all the attention they want, play and chill are equally important. Its very important to me that the pets stay healthy both mentally and physically so a little workout and sometimes a little mind work with them is great

Information Jose R. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to be aware of behavioral problems, special needs and specific things that you might not feel comfortable with your pet doing, like going for a run or getting a little dirty

A typical day

If they're high energy I might take them out for a run, but if not I'll definitely go for a nice walk with them. I love to play games and let them explore, there's always something new to discover

Pet care experience

I grew up with 4 different dogs in Mexico. The last dog I had with me, Nala, was too crazy so we hired a dog trainer that taught us some cool tricks to make her behave better! After this I started dog walking during the pandemic as a full time job(:

Luis (aka Jose) was wonderful with our anxious Rottie cross. He won her over in no time, and gave her some great long walks. Luis is very good-hearted, and I would absolutely ask him again to care for our dog and cat when we go away.

Jose did a great job walking my 80-pound pit bull, Frederick. Frederick is a strong dog, so I really appreciate someone who is confident and comfortable handling larger breeds. He took him on a 30-minute walk, and Frederick came back very happy and comfortable with him. I would definitely trust Jose again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker/sitter :) we will be booking future walks with him!

José took care of my two dogs and he bonded immediately with them. He walked them everyday and he was really responsible and caring with the pets. I trust him, he’s such a good person and easygoing

Luis walked dogs in Mexico. He had several customers from small breeds to Great Danes. He helped in the training of our dog, Nala, and loves spending time outside with dogs. He loves animals and takes care of them a lot.
