Pet care experience
Hi there 👋, I'm Luz, a dog mom 🦴and not your average sitter or walker 🦮. I bring a unique blend of skills and dedication to the table. Working with puppies isn't just a job for me, it's a joy. I thrive on nurturing their potential and shaping their behavior in positive ways. But my expertise doesn't stop there. I believe in keeping every dog's tail wagging with excitement, so I'm always concocting new games and activities to keep them mentally engaged and physically active. And when it comes to our senior pals, they hold a special place in my heart. I have two senior dogs, a 15-year-old Chihuahua who leads the pack and my 10-year-old Pitty. Life has been about making my senior babies live a comfortable quality of life. I understand their need for gentle care and companionship, and I'm there to provide it in abundance. With me, your furry family members aren't just in good hands; they're in the hands of someone who genuinely loves and understands them. 🫶🏼
Reviews
I would recommend Luz to anyone! She is punctual and very attentive to detail. Without asking she refilled my dogs water bowl after the walk, gave me a detailed report of the walk, and messaged me to let me know when she was on the way and when she left. Awesomeness all around. Plus we skipped the meet and greet. 😬
Luz has taken amazing care of my dog! She has great communication and takes amazing pictures! My pup has a lot of anxiety, but she has made him feel comfortable with her!
Luz took excellent care of my Finley girl today. Very attentive and provides excellent pictures of your pup. Highly recommend
Luz is one of few people I trust with my office therapy pup. She is a very nervous-system-based caretaker and is going to make sure your fur baby gets everything they need to feel safe and happy. She is up to date on all the newest studies and is comfortable challenging my dog with behavioral modification techniques. The best part is she is also CPR and First Aid certified for my 4 legged best friend, so they're always in the greatest of hands. Can't recommend Luz enough!
About Luz R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My priority is respect and safety at all times, It's my duty to advocate for the pets and keep an open/honest line of communication with pet owners. If I am visiting a client's home it's important for me not to disrupt the environment so that our fur babies feel at ease in their own space. I take walks very seriously, with complete attention to my environment and proactiveness, ensuring I am monitoring my furry client's needs.
Information Luz R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know what kind of personality they have, what kind of boundaries they require (example: they may not enjoy physical affection), what are key words or phrases they are familiar with, what kind of things they may fear (example: stairs, loud noises, specific walking routes etc) health concerns (example: previous injuries, asthma, heart conditions etc), dietary restrictions (example: allergic to specific kind of treats, medicated foods only etc) and lastly, are there any special needs that require a specific kind of care. This will allow me to have a more tailored experience with your fur babies!
A typical day
I am always pivoting my approach to match each dogs personality and needs. I can keep up with a good play session, play catch, jog, tug of war or tactical games to stimulate the mind differently. If my client needs more down time, I am a great companion for the chilled vibes ?.
