Pet care experience

Calm, Loving Care for Little Pups

I’ve been caring for dogs for over seven years through the Wag! platform in addition to friends and family’s pups, and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Over time, I’ve discovered that I truly excel with smaller, calmer, and more mellow dogs—and that’s where my focus is for Rover.

Lucia stayed with Coco in our home for eight days while we were away, and I couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Coco can be shy and anxious with new people, but Lucia was incredibly patient and allowed her to warm up at her own pace. She followed Coco's routine carefully, kept us updated regularly with thoughtful messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. When we returned home, Coco was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they had formed a special bond, and seeing how comfortable and affectionate Coco was with Lucia meant so much to us. Our home was also just as we had left it. What stands out most about Lucia is how thoughtful and attentive she is. She pays close attention to the little details, genuinely cares about your pet's comfort and well-being, and treats them as if they were her own. It's obvious that caring for animals is more than just a job to her. If you're looking for someone who is compassionate, reliable, communicative, patient, and completely trustworthy, I can't recommend Lucia highly enough. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and look forward to having her care for Coco again.

Lucia took very good care of our dog while we were away, we got many updates and pictures. Our dog has a few on her own routines which are important when she is away from us so she has a sense of consistency, Lucia was super attentive to all of them and sent us report for each which was very sweet of her!

Lucia G, There are so many great things to say about her. We've known her for 7 yrs and she has been walking and caring for our two dogs. She is an absolute Gem, not only is she loving, caring and compassionate. She is reliable, flexible and punctual. Most of all, she is trustworthy and the only person I would want for this job. She takes the time to give our babies loving and pets before and after their walk, wipes their paws and gives them treats. She loves and cares for them like they are her own. I could continue and write a book on how amazing she is. If you're lucky enough to have her in your life and looking after your beloved pets. You will be blessed.

Lucia is an amazing dog walker. Lucia has been Thelma's dog walker for over 3 years and Thelma absolutely loves her. She gets so excited whenever she hears our door open and hears Lucia. She's always on time, sometimes a few minutes early for Thelma's walks and gives updates every single time after her walk. Lucia has even watched Thelma overnight whenever we go on vacation. Thelma LOVES boarding with her. We like to say Thelma goes on vacation whenever she boards with Lucia because they take her to the beach, long walks, etc. Thelma pouts whenever she comes back from her little vacation. I highly recommend Lucia.

Schedule

I take a gentle, attentive approach to dog care, paying close attention to each dog’s comfort level, routine, and preferences. I’m especially mindful of dogs who thrive in quieter, low-stress environments and do best with patience and consistency. Whether it’s relaxed walks, cozy companionship, or simply maintaining their normal routine, my goal is always to create a safe, low-stress experience where dogs feel secure, respected, and genuinely cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

Pet care is my top priority. My schedule is flexible so I may step away for some dog walks, but I am mindful of my schedule and adjust taking additional walks accordingly.

A typical day

I love making each pet’s time with me feel fun, comforting, and stress-free. For dogs, that often means beach outings, relaxed walks, and plenty of playtime with their favorite toys. I pay close attention to their energy levels and preferences, whether they’re up for adventure or just want to take things slow. At home, I focus on creating a calm, safe space where pets can truly relax — with lots of affection, cuddles, and quiet companionship for those who enjoy it. I’m mindful of maintaining familiar routines, including feeding schedules, walks, and bedtime habits, so pets feel secure and at ease. I also love sending photo updates, so pet parents can stay connected and have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, seen, and genuinely cared for.

Every pet is unique, and I want to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and understood while in my care. Learning about their routine, preferences, and personality helps me create a familiar, low-stress experience that feels as close to home as possible. The more I know about your pet — from what makes them happy to what might make them anxious — the better I can tailor my care to their individual needs. Daily routine & care • What is your pet’s daily routine (feeding times, walks, play, naps)? • Are there any routines or habits that help them feel calm or secure? • Do they have a preferred sleeping spot or comfort item? Personality & preferences • How would you describe your pet’s personality? • What are their favorite toys, games, or activities? • Do they enjoy cuddles, or prefer their own space? Behavior & comfort • Are there any fears, anxieties, or triggers I should know about? • How does your pet typically react to new people or environments? • Are there any behaviors you’re currently working on? Health & safety • Does your pet have any medical needs, allergies, or medications? • Are there mobility concerns or physical limitations? • Is there anything I should monitor closely? House rules & boundaries • Are there any rules you’d like me to follow (furniture, food, walks)? • Are there areas of the home that are off-limits?
