I work from home as a Digital Illustrator, so I have plenty of time to cuddle up with a pet and give the creature my attention since my office is in the living room. So they are always in sight.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a camper with my own two pups which is why I prefer to house smaller dogs for the time being. My camper is located in a nice neighborhood less than five minutes away from a vet clinic and shops to pick up extra food if needed during a longer stay. Since I work from home, I need a good walk myself every now and again so your furry friend will definitely get to stretch their legs frequently as my walk buddy! My camper is my pride and joy so it’s always kept clean and tidy. Your puppy will be pampered and given full affection every moment they are here.

Information Juana S. would like to know about your pet

If your dog is frightened of people they don’t know and might be aggressive, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I don’t hey scared of dogs by any means. I just want a heads up so I know to give the dog space and time to avoid stressing them out and possibly meeting beforehand so they can get used to me.

A typical day

I often find myself down on the floor play wrestling with dogs just to hype them up. My dogs are very sweet and playful. I love going for walks In any weather and taking the time to play with pets for while if they like. For lazier dogs, I don’t mind lounging and petting for as long as they need even if it results in a lap nap.

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Juana S. When I was in high school, I took four years of Adv. Animal Science classes. So I had to research multiple breeds of dogs, birds, snakes, and cats. I have had dogs as pets since as long as I can remember. From puppy's to senior dogs and sizes from Yorkies to Great Pyrenees! There hasn't been a time where I passed a dog somewhere and didn't just melt. Washing, walking, brushing, cuddling, exercising, feeding, and just letting a dog nap on my lap for hours won't be a problem. I can even try and train your pet if you ask. I've been a dog lover all my life, so I can guarantee that your animal will be safe and loved. Thank you so much for your time.

Juana was amazing with our two pups! They both loved her and she made us feel better knowing they were having fun while we were away for the holiday. Our larger dog is full of energy & Juana played outside with him every time she came over. She also helped us out tremendously and gave our older dog antibiotics the vet prescribed right before we left town. Juana was very responsive and sent us pictures frequently! 10/10 recommend her :)

I was hesitant to post a review as this one is hard... So, here I go. I want to first start out by saying that Juana is very kind and has a heart for animals. You can see how she cares for and loves your animals as much as you do. Juana was so kind to purchase a birthday hat for my golden to help celebrate his birthday while I was away. Why my overall rating was a 3... I wish there was a payment option for the care you received. I booked for overnight sitting (from 9/27-10/07/23), and although she did sleep at my home, I do not feel that is the service I received. Juana would take my dogs out in the morning (maybe 7–10 minutes) and then leave the house around 10:30–11 each day to go let her dogs out. She did mention and ask if it was okay to go to her house 3–4 hours a day, and I was okay with that; however, she would not return until 8 p.m. at the earliest. That means my dogs were let out twice a day (maybe there was a third) and only "walked" once. This also means my dogs were eating at 8 o'clock at night. My chocolate lab ended up chewing on one of my couch pillows because she was left home alone for too many hours—several days in a row. I am not upset at all about the pillow; I am just sad that my dogs did not get the walks they deserved and were left alone for 9+ hours a day (over 10 days). I paid $700+ to basically have someone sleep at my home. That being said, I would recommend Juana letting your dogs out, but not for an overnight stay, depending on your expectations. She has three dogs at home that she also has to care for (which is why I had empathy for her having to go to her home).

Juana was excellent! She dropped in on our 4 cats for a week while we were out of town. I would definitely rebook her the next time we need a cat sitter
