About Margarida C.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Having been a vet assistant and fostering hundreds of cats, I have to be prepared for the unexpected and take precautions with every animal I meet. It's extremely important to be aware of any triggers or risks in an environment so I can be accommodating to the pet I am caring for. I like to provide a very friendly and attentive environment where I can gauge their needs at any given moment. This includes being accommodating to a pet’s social/behavioral needs and giving them the space to warm up to me.
Information Margarida C. would like to know about your pet
It's important to know your pets' socialization habits, i.e. if they are friendly with other dogs/people, as well as their energy levels and favorite activities. Of course, any specific conditions or accommodations relating to your pet is always important to know.
A typical day
All pets have their unique personalities, and I love being able to bring out their energy and excitement whether it's through walking, playing or hustling hangin out! I enjoy outdoor activities like going to the park, on hikes, or swimming, but I also love cuddles just as much!

Pet care experience
I’m Margarida 😊 I have been a pet caretaker for 10+ years. I’ve done foster services, worked as a veterinary assistant, and have been a pet sitter now for 3 years. My Experience 🐾 I’ve fostered hundreds of cats from all areas of life and socialization stages. From newborns to elderly cats, pregnant mothers/in labor, cats with disabilities and feral rescues in need of socialization. I can proudly say every cat I've fostered has always gone to a forever home and it warms my heart to see rescued animals become friendly and sociable with humans. I worked as a vet assistant during my time in college for Community Mobile Vet in Santa Cruz. My job consisted of handling cats and dogs of various sizes, as well as birds and other animals, which included administering medication and claw clipping. Services 🦮 I am experienced in bottle feeding, giving medication, cleaning up waste, basic grooming, claw clipping, exercise, and socialization of cats/dogs of various sizes/ages/abilities. Contacting me 📞 You can call/text me through this website and I should reply shortly.

Reviews
Margarida was responsive, dependable, warm, friendly and very comfortable with our 9 year old German Shepherd. She asked intelligent questions related to the care of our dog and made sure that we were comfortable with the service. I highly recommend Margarida for pet sitting!
I can’t say how amazing Margarida is! She is one of the best dog walkers I’ve ever had. Very prompt, accommodating, and thorough, plus my boys loved her!!
Margarida is keen to my dog's needs and it is very appreciated.
Attentive, flexible and very sweet.
