Pet care experience
Your Pet is Never Alone
I am not just a pet sitter; I am a highly experienced caregiver who understands that every dog requires unique, specialized attention. Having raised and cared for my own four dogs for 25 years, I know exactly what it takes to keep a home safe, happy, and structured for multiple pets. I am fully confident and experienced in managing complex health conditions. I provide specialized care for diabetes (including strict schedules and insulin shots), seizure management, and gentle guidance for seniors experiencing Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD). From fragile 5-pound newborn puppies to independent 110-pound seniors, I understand the different handling, behavioral, and nutritional needs across all sizes and life stages. I am used to keeping up with a pack! I walked my four dogs every single day, meaning your pet will get the reliable exercise, outdoor time, and routine they thrive on. My community frequently relies on me to care for their pets because they know I treat every dog with the same level of vigilance and love as my own.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Dolores is a loving caring person that loves animals and cares for them she that person that will go above and beyond for any animal in her care. She has so much knowledge on animals and loves them more than humans sometimes. I definitely trust her with my pets. And my pets loved her so much because she's the right person to take care of them because of her big heart for animals.
Dolores has watched my older dog Max multiple times, and I couldn't recommend them more! Caring for a senior dog takes a lot of patience, attention to detail, and a gentle touch, and Dolores went above and beyond. She kept me updated with great photos and messages while I was away, which gave me total peace of mind. If you need someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely loving toward animals, Dolores is the absolute best choice!"
Dolores is a wonderful, caring, and responsible person who truly loves animals. She is very dependable, trustworthy, patient, and attentive to pets’ needs. I would feel completely comfortable leaving my pets in her care and know they would be treated with lots of love and attention. I highly recommend Dolores to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet caregiver! ❤️🐾

Schedule
I treat pet care as a core priority in my daily and weekly schedule. My routine is built around reliability and punctuality, which is crucial for pets on strict medical or feeding regimens. I dedicate my mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings entirely to pet visits, ensuring that diabetic checks, insulin shots, and senior care happen precisely on time. Because I am used to managing a busy multi-dog pack of my own, I am highly organized and adapt my weekly calendar to give your pets the consistent, dedicated time they deserve.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat your pet exactly like a member of my own pack, offering a structured, safe, and loving environment. I follow your exact instructions down to the letter. If your diabetic pet needs breakfast and insulin at a precise hour, or if your senior cat needs specialized cognitive support at night, I am there right on time. Because of my extensive experience with seizures, diabetes, and other health issues, I am highly observant. I look out for subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits, and I know exactly how to handle medical emergencies calmly. I keep up your pet's favorite neighborhood walking routes and playtime rituals, ensuring they get the mental stimulation and physical exercise they are used to.
