Reliable & Caring

Pet care experience

I have a little dog of my own named Cleo, i spend a lot of time taking care of her and her needs. I also have a kitten named Luna. I got Luna a year after Cleo so they could grow up together as a way for Cleo not be too lonely when I am out and to get comfortable having other animals around. They get along really well and love to play with each other.

WOW, where do I begin? Margarita responded to my last minute request - her profile said she was available the day of my booking and she actually was! Very courteous, professional, communicative and arrived right on time! My dog is afraid of strangers and takes an initial introduction + treats + an invite to our home, before she gets comfortable with someone, HOWEVER, the moment Caribou saw Margarita, she walked up to her as though she had known her! This has NEVER happened! The beautiful smile Margarita has in her profile pic is truly her! When you meet her she is sooo warm and right away you can see she has great connection with animals and knows how to handle them. She is one step ahead of me asking for anything - for example when I was leaving she knew right away Caribou would need to be held. Shocker: I had an all day work function and this was my first time in 12 years I had ever left Caribou with an unknown person - and not once was I worried about her. I was actually worried that Margarita would get bored. I check in a few times for that reason and Margarita responded so quickly and didn’t seem to be bothered by my check ins. She sent me pics throughout the day and asked very thoughtful questions. Awe, I’m so thankful for you, Margarita!!! Caribou is looking forward to seeing you again soon ???.

Margarita was wonderful! This was the first time we had both been away from our pups for at least two years, so we were anxious to see how they would do with both of us gone. Margarita is Calvin and Charlotte approved! They seemed very happy and well cared for. Would definitely recommend Margarita for dog sitting and intend to be a repeat client!

Safety, trust & environment

Boarding Requests: My home on a quiet street, with zero through traffic because there is a cul de sac at the end. I have a gated front yard, green grass with large magnolia tree for shade. Lots of space to run around, also have a orchard in the backyard. Overall a pup’s paradise. House-Sitting Requests: I take care of and respect my clients home as if it were my own home. I never invite anyone over unless I have permission from my clients. ** Please Note Before Requesting House-Stays with Me: I do require that my dog, Cleo is with me for ALL House Sittings as it is convenient and allows me to keep Her and the client’s dogs all on their schedules without disruption.

Information Margarita I. would like to know about your pet

- Is your dog flea free? - Is your dog up to date on all Vaccines? - How does your dog get along with other dogs and people? - How does he/she adapt to new environments? - Any aggressive tendencies? - Any medical needs, taking medicine, allergies - Any foods to avoid?

A typical day

I’ll ensure your pets get plenty of exercise, play time, and lots of cuddles Like I mentioned above, I live on a safe, quiet, wide, non-thru street. You can literally walk down the middle of the road and not worry about cars flying by. Which is great for walking dogs, morning runs, or even afternoon strolls.
