Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I can not bring your pets to my house because unfortunately my little dog isn't all kinds of dog friendly and I also don't know how my cat would react to other dogs. I got my cat not too long ago he is still adjusting to the new environment. Which also means I will not be bringing any of my pets to your home while I am sitting. My sister works at a vets clinic which I also refer to her if I ever feel I need medical advice in any questionable situation.

Information Lupita C. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful if I am aware of any special instructions in caring for your pet if there is any. I have a high allergic dog, which makes me familiar in administering oral medication.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs brains. I can play fetch, and tag with them. I can also walk with them so that they are able to smell familiar as well as new places.

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Lupita. I've loved animals ever since I could remember. When I was 14 I began caring for my cousins Rottweiler, and german/terrier which included; feeding, walking, and bathing. When I turned 18 I got my own puppy and cared for him for as long as I had him. I also began to caregive at 18 and my client had a dog and cat which included feeding both and walking the dog. I now have 2 pets of my own. I rescued 3 hamsters and 1 kitten from a bad home situation. I have provided new loving homes to too many pets who needed new homes.

Our dog, Gracie, is ecstatic when Lupita arrives to take care of her. We know we can go on vacation and Gracie will still be happy.

Lupita is wonderful! She took great care of our cat (Jesse) and our home while we were out of town for 5 days for a wedding. This was our first time leaving Jesse with a sitter so we wanted to make sure things went well. Lupita did a great job and was very responsive, sending updates and photos regularly. We had also requested she walk Jesse (he actually will go on cat walks around the neighborhood!) which can sometimes be a bit tricky. She was able to get him out on walks, often twice a day, and he seemed really happy and cuddly with her. She also left our home spotless, which is really important to us with someone staying in our house. We highly recommend Lupita and hope to have her cat sit for us again!

Have had Lupita come take my pup out for walks for 2 years and have nothing but awesome things to say about her! Professional, kind and flexible! She takes care of Frito like one of her own!
