I’m currently in nursing school remotely, which means my schedule is very flexible and I’m home the majority of the day. When I’m house-sitting, your dog gets consistent company, supervision, and attention, I’m not someone who will be in and out all day. If I ever need to step out for a quick errand or class requirement, I always communicate ahead of time. I believe in being respectful of your home and completely transparent about my schedule, so you’ll always know what to expect. Because my program is online, I’m able to structure my study time around your pet’s needs: walks, playtime, feeding, medication, and potty breaks. This setup lets me provide calm, consistent care while keeping your dog’s routine as stable and stress-free as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

When I care for pets in your home, I keep everything calm, safe, and consistent. I follow your dog’s routine exactly: feeding schedule, walk times, crate rules, and any house guidelines you prefer. I’m especially careful with doors, gates, and outdoor time, and I handle strong or high-energy dogs confidently. I keep your home tidy, pick up after pets right away, and treat your space with respect. Throughout the stay, I send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to make your dog feel secure in their familiar environment and give you complete peace of mind.

Information Magali L. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pets, I like to know anything that helps me keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. A few things that are especially helpful: - Daily routine: Feeding times, walk schedules, bathroom habits, and any quirks in their normal behavior. - Temperament: How they react to new people, other animals, loud noises, or certain situations. - Medical needs: Medications, allergies, mobility issues, or any conditions I should watch out for. - House rules: Are they allowed on furniture? Do they sleep in a crate? Any training cues or routines you follow? - Triggers or fears: Separation anxiety, reactivity, resource guarding, or anything that might make them nervous. - Favorite things: Treats they love, games they enjoy, comfort items, and what helps them relax. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can match their routine and give them the same care and attention they get from you. My goal is to make their day feel as normal and stress-free as possible.

A typical day

A typical day with me is calm, structured, and very pet-focused. I always start by checking in with your pet’s routine: morning potty break, fresh water, breakfast, and any medications if needed. Throughout the day, I follow whatever schedule your pet is used to so they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I send regular updates, photos, and quick check-ins so you always know how they’re doing. When it comes to fun activities, I tailor everything to your pet’s personality and energy level. For dogs who love to play, we might go on neighborhood walks, practice basic commands, explore the backyard, or have a good game of fetch or tug-of-war. For more laid-back pups, we do relaxing cuddle time, enrichment toys, slow sniff-walks, or puzzle feeders. My goal is to keep them happy, stimulated, and feeling loved while you’re away. Even though I’m currently in nursing school, my program is remote, which allows me to be present and available throughout the day. School is part of my routine, but I plan it around the pets in my care, I always prioritize their needs first, and if I ever need to step out or step away briefly, I communicate clearly and ahead of time.

Your Home & Pup Are Safe With Me

Pet care experience

I’ve spent several years caring for pets as part of my work as a nanny and personal assistant, so I’m very used to routines, communication, and handling animals with patience. I’ve cared for high-energy breeds like German Shepherds and Dobermans, as well as small dogs, seniors, and puppies. What sets me apart is that I’m calm, dependable, and observant, I notice changes in behavior, appetite, or energy right away. I’m comfortable with crate routines, structured walks, feeding schedules, basic commands, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated. I’ve also handled senior-dog needs like slow walks, medication reminders, and gentle mobility support. When I house-sit, I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions carefully, and send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident your pup is happy and safe. Whether your dog needs long walks, quiet company, playtime, or extra patience, I adapt to each pet’s personality to help them feel secure while you’re away.

Thank you so much, Magali! We’re grateful to have such a super communicative and responsible person to care for our bunny. It really puts our minds at ease when we’re traveling. 😊

Magali was great, took great care of Runner and communicated with us throughout the process. We were visiting from out of town and staying in an Airbnb. She made sure our pet felt at home during her visit and sent us lots of photos. ❤️

I’ve had a wonderful experience with Magali as a pet caregiver. She is caring, dependable, and truly attentive to every detail. My pet felt comfortable with her right away, and I always appreciated the updates and thoughtful communication she provided. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond in her care. I couldn’t be happier with the experience—Magali is fantastic!

We could not ask for a better partner to assist in the healthy care of our three dogs. We have Magali to be prompt, kind, thorough, thoughtful, and a great communicator. We trust her with the care of our crew explicitly. We would recommend Magali at the highest level when thinking about the care of your pets
